ELLIOTT, PITBLTSUIER AND PItOPIETOR THURSDAY, OCTOBER 30, 1913 CAUGHT IN HIS OWN TRAP. The Toronto Star has neatly trapped Mr. Foster. Like others of his party, Mr. Foster is now showing wonderful hind -sight in regard to Canadian -American relations and the American tariff. He told a North Toronto audience the other night that "the Conservative party had in 1911 foreseen \lh'tt ..as corning in the United States and had urged Canada instead of binding herself by an agree- ment, to wait until the agitation for tariff reduction had borne fruit." But the Star, lamenting that in an audience even of North Toronto Con- servatives there should not be found one man of sufficient intelligence to question such a statement, quotes from Mr, Foster's speech in the House of Commons on February 14th 1911: "For you find no intimation amongst the powers that be, or the powers that are to be, in the United States, that they are quite willing, for purposes which I shall hereafter disclose, to open the barriers and to make free trade between Canada and the United States, they are at all dis- posed to throw any barriers down against the rest of the world. They do not intend to do it." Mr Foster was then arguing against the fact that capital would as a result of its passing turn to the United States rather than to Canada, because the high protection would be maintained there, • while in Canada. he said, "unstable conditions would be imported by this arrangement." Was ever a cabinet minister more crushingly convicted out of his own mouth of perverting facts? Only ex- tremaly stupid people, who forget every yesterday to -day, can be persuaded that the Conservative party in 1911 either expected or expressed any wish for the opening of the American food market to our products. It is plain enough what Mr. Foster himself thought. He went on in that speech Feb. 14, 1911, to show in absurd detail what damage to Canada such an open- ing would bring: see Hansard. The Conservative press echoed him. Not long ago Mr. Crothers, speaking to a Rodney audience, falsified a speech of Sir Wilfrid Laurier, as a reference to Hansard would show. Messrs. Fost- er and Borden vie with each other in self -repudiation or contradiction. The present Government is distinguished for this sort of thing. Chronic Dyspepsia. The following unsolicited testimonial should certainly be sufficient to give hope and courage to persons afflicted with chronic dyspepsia: I have been a dyspeptic for years, and of all the medicine I have taken, Chamberlain's Tablets have done me more good than anything else " says W.

Why Men Don't Marry. (Christian Guardian, Toronto.) A certain American writer, Mr. E. E. Rittenhouse, dealing with the fact that thirty-nine out of every hundred men in the United States and Canada of marriageable age are unmarried, de- clares that there are "an enormous number of men who lack the moral fibre and courage to marry and take a man's part in human affairs. While an army of single men are lavishing their earnings and effections upon themselves, and many of them developing extrava- gant and often vicious habits, another great army, of young women, is forced to toil in our factories and business houses for the necessities of Iife. This is an unfortunate state of affairs." Mr. Rittenhouse blames the men for this state of affairs, but the Daily Telegraph, of Montreal, takes issue with him on this point. and insists that the women must bear some of the blame. The editor says: "There is no i imyPORTLAND ( Cf 1F.NT / This Iabel, on every bag, iden- tifies Canada Portland Cement. blinking the fact that we are in age of revolt against domesticity on the part of the women. The majority of our girls refuse to take an interest in house- hold work. They scorn economy and quiet life. They have expensive tastes Their beau ideal is a young man with plenty of money, an automobile, and a neverending capacity for giving them 'a good time.' Let young women who want husbands. go in for the study of domestic economy. Let them dress as neatly as they please, but with due regard for propriety and theadvoidance of reckless expense, Let them pre- serve at all times a strict regard for decorum in their conduct. The young men likely to make the best husbands are not inclined to ask frivolous and extravagant and incompent young women to become their partners of life." We fear that on the part of both young men and women this indict- ment will hold good in all too many eases. There does seem to be some- what of a "revolt against domestic MAKE certain of complete success in your concrete work by always using CANADA Portland CEMENT We are supplying Canadian fatmets with the. highest quality of Portland Cement k is possible for human skill to make.

The ''story" wilt be new, I am sure, to many readers of the extraordinary interview that tools place at Rosyth, Scotland, where some of the ships of a naval squadron were lying, between an e-lthusiastic missionary and the com- manding officer of one of the war -boats. "I've called to see you, sir," said the man of peace, "about the state of re- ligion in the fleet. We have had a glor- ious awakening on the Arethusa, and now I want to interest your men op the subject of their everlasting welfare," .,Aha, "Yes, sir, we baptised ten men on the Arethusa yesterday. "The deuce you did! Here,. boat- swain order out 20 men for baptism first thing to -morrow morning. I'm hanged if I'll be beaten by any Are- thusa in this squadron." $100 ettswA1to, 8100 The readers o this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages, and that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure not known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires a con- stitutional treatment, Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature in do- ing its work. The proprietors have so much faith in its curative powers that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails to cure. Send for list of testimonials, Address F.J. CHENEY & Co., Toledo, 0.

Johnson, "The first two crops after putting in twenty-one thousand tile paid for the underdraining in increased yield per acre." "There is a twelve -acre patch near the bush, This year I sold from it $1,- 200 worth of potatoes. I.have paid for the land three or four times with pota- toes;and some years potatoes were pretty cheap." "When you take much food from the soil you must return a like amount or your soil will soon play out. This spring we used about five tons of ferti' !leer, as well as several loads of ma nure." "In the last two years I have sold fifteen thousand bushels of potatoes from this farm, and have not had one single complaint as to quality." "Let the Amercians have our mar- ket for their early potatoes; they are ready to take in return far more late potatoes than we can send them." it 8 Boxes Cured Psoriasis, Mrs. Nettie Massey, Consecon. Ont.. writes: "Three doctors described my trouble as psoriasis, and one said I could never be cured. The disease spread all over me, even on my face and head and the itching and burning was hard to bear. I used eight boxes of Dr. Chase's Ointment and am entirely cured not a sign of a sore to be seen. I can hardly praise this Ointment enough." A Dental Curiosity It may not be generally known that the Father of his Country was one of the first Americans to wear artificial teeth. By the time the War of the Revolution had ended he had parted company with most of the outfit which nature had given him. An ingenious physician and dentist of New York un- dertook the then unusual task of re - equipment and produced at length a full set of artificial proof of the hero- ism of our first president for it is a matter of fact that General Washing- ton wore those teeth for many years and, so far as we know, never com- complained of them. The teeth were carved from ivory and riveted, wired and clamped to a somewhat ponderous gold plate. Three large clamps particularly figure con- spicuously in the roof of the mouth and must have caused difficulty, if not anguish, There were an upper and a lower set, and the two were connected and help in position relatively by a long spiral spring on each side, says Harper's Weekly. Nevertheless Washington wore them long and well, a fact eufflciently attest- ed by the worn and dinted condition of both teeth and plate. At the last account these teeth were the property of a dental institution in Bal ti more. BUSINESS AND SHORTHAND Subjects taught by expert instructors at the �ja et, M. C. A. BLbG.. LONDON, ONt.
