CURED Of THIS
HORRIBLE DISEASE
Edmonton Girl saved By
"Fruit -a -lives"
nMONToN, ALTA, Nov. loth t9tr,
"I had been a sufferer from babyhood
with that terrible complaint, Consti-
pation.
I have been treated by physicians and
have taken every medicine that I
heard of, but without the slightest
benefit. I concluded that there was no
cure for this horrible disease.
Finally, I read of °'Fruit-a-tives" and
decided to try them, and the effect was
marvellous.
The first box gave me great relief,
and after I used a few boxes, I found
that I was entirely well.
"•Pout-a-tives" is the only medicine
that ever did me any good for Chronic
Constipation and I want to say to all
who suffer as I did-Try"Fruit-a-tives-"
why suffer any longer when there is a

HOW FASHIONS BEGAN.
If the most noteworthy trait in the
fashions of the present day is an eclecti-
cism which permits no one dominant
tendency to hold sway, the reason may
perhaps be found in the fact that while
Paris undoubtedly sets the fashion for
the whole feminine world, Paris is the
capital of France and of the French re-
public. Formerly, under the empire,
or when there was a king on the throne
of France, the sovereign's wishes had a
distinct influence an the tendency of
fashion. The court liked to copy the
smallest detail or whim of his majesty
or of the princesses who surrounded
him -for example, trains owe their ori-
gin to the fact that the daughters of
Louis III had abnormally large feet.
The wife of Philippe III., was afflicted
with a tremendously long neck, so she
invented the high guimpe. It was be-
cause La Belle Ferronniere had a burn
exactly in the middle of her forehead
that she wore over the cicatrice the
charming jewel held by a fine thread
that is called a Ferronniere to this day.
In the reign of Henry IL some princess-
es who suffered from goitre hid the
blemish beneath their high fluted ruffs
and disguised under the puffed sleeve.
Anne of Austria wore short sleeves
because of her beautiful arms; Louis
XIV. brought the wig into fashion be-
cause he was afflicted with a wen on
his head. Mme. de Pompadour created
the vogue of high -heeled slippers to
hide her lack of inches. The Empress
Eugenie had very beautiful shoulders;
so she set the fashion of a decolletage
which left the shoulders bare and set
them off to the best advantage.
Had a Weak Heart
Doctored For Three dears
Without Any Benefit.
Through one cause or another a large
majority of people are troubled, more or
less, with some form of heart trouble.
Little attention is paid to the slight
weakness, but when it starts to beat
irregularly, and every once in a while,
pain seems to shoot through it, then it
causes great anxiety and alarm.
Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills will
give prompt and permanent relief to all
those suffering from any weakness of the
heart or nerves.
Mrs. M. Shea, 193 Holland Ave.,
Ottawa, Ont., writes:-" I write you these
lines to let you know that I have used
Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills. After
doctoring for the last three years with all
kinds of medicines and pills for weak
evert, I heard of your Heart and Nerve
Title, so thinking I had never used any-
• hing that did me so much good, I kept
,n using them, and I had only used four
.,uxeS, when I was perfectly cured."

LADY FRANKLIN'S ADDRESS,
ixplorer's Wife Received a Flowery
Welcome at Yale, B.C.
In a communication to The Week
of Victoria, Mr. John T. Waibran
tells an interesting story of Lady
Franklin's visit to the British Colum-
bia coast more than half a century
ago:
On Vancouver Island and on the
south shore of Johnstone strait is a
steep and rugged range of mountains
about 4,000 feet high, named by Cap-
tain Richards. in 1801, then in com-
mand of H.M. surveying vessel
"Hecate," after Sir John Franklin>,
the Arctic explorer, and Lady Jane
Franklin, his wife.
It was on the 22nd February, 1861,
that Lady Franklin, then the widow
of the gallant sailor, accompanied by
her niece, Miss Sophia Cracroft
(hence Cracroft Island and on it
Sophia Point, situated on the op-
posite side of the strait to the Frank.
lin Mountains), arrived at Victoria on
a visit, and in March, attended by
Lieutenant Hankin of H.M.S. "He-
cate," detailed by Capt. Richards for
this duty, proceeded by river steamer
up the Fraser as far as Fort Yale, as
her ladyship desired to see something
of the scenery on the river. At Yale,
Lady Franklin was enthusiastically
welcomed and on leaving was pre-
sented with an address. This unique
address which has, to the writer's
knowledge, never before been pub-
lished, is worthy of more than passing
mention and was communicated to
the writer by her ladyship's naval
"aide-de-camp" who was present when
it was read to Lady Franklin.
The address, as follows, was read
by the Rev. William Burton Criekmer,
:..A., then the Anglican clergyman
at Yale, and no doula«t the reverend
gentleman had a large share in its
composition:
"May it please your ladyship. We
the inhabitants of Yale representing
well nigh every nation under heaven,
esteem the present as the proudest
moment in the annals of our country
and in the existence of our Town.
To -day is our Town of Yale forever
linked in history with the name of
one, the memorial r.f whose abundant
kindness and wifely devotion will
never die and at whose immortal ven-
eration Princes how down and Kings
and Queens of the Earth may envy
but never win.
"From the bottom of our hearts do
w, pray God to bless your ladyship
with many happy clays, and when
called in God's own providence from
this holy Church militant, to join the
heroic in the Church triumphant, may
the grave be transmuted, by the touch
of a living faith, into the gates of
everlasting life and a glory, more
lasting than the perishing Laurels of
Earth, forever crown the double
brows of the noble pair whom the
whole civilized world of Christendom
delighted to honor."
History has not recorded Lady
Franklin's reply. The address, en-
grossed on parchment, was placed in
a small cedar -wood case and handed
to her ladyship.
On returning to Victoria a picnic

The address was given to the writer,

and this gentleman had also told the
writer that often on board the He-

Legislative Grants to Rural Schools. grants for educational purposes must
not exceed the amount voted, which is
$400,000, so that a pro rata reduction
may be necessary in oreer that the
amount paid to the schools may' be
within the appropriation above referred
to. The grant on Interim First and
Second Class Certificates is now with-
drawn in accordance with the policy of
tl%Department. The grant on First
and Second Class Permanent Certificates
remains the same.
The Legislative Grant to Rural Pub-
lic and Separate schools is earned on
the salaries and certificates of the
teachers. In 1906, it amounted to $178-
265, and in 1907 (the first year in which
the present system for computing
grants was used,) $356,726.42. As sal-
aries increased, the amount earned ap-
proached almost half a million, which
was almost $100,000 in excess of the
appropriation. In 1912 it was arranged
that the 40 per cent. paid by the De-
partment in respect to salaries should
begin at $350 for Principal and $250 for
Assistant teachers, instead of $300 and
$200 as had formerly been allowed, In
spite of this an overdraft for $60,000
had to be obtained in order that the
grants earned might be paid in full.
The Government has decided that all
The Englishman is Ontario.
"Is the labor problem of western
Ontario to be settled by the
I.ngLehman?" says a Glencoe, Ont.,
man. "The present indications point
in tl.att direction. A few years ago
you could find very few English ino
anitrrants in West Middlesex, and only
a family or two in Glencoe, To -day
you meet fine, intelligent men from
the better classes of old England al-
most everywhere. Among the newer
arrivals are mechanics and artisans
--men who are proving themselves
good citizens."
This opinion represents the experi-
ence of many towns and cities in
western Ontario, says The London
Free Press. There is an immigration
into these parts of men from the old
land going on to -day that is even
more marked than was the immigra-
tion which resulted in the settlement
of Ontario in large part by this same
class of immigrant now approaching
a century ago.
