It most be aeeonnted to Ibe oredit of
the Ross Government that it hag always
been ready to recognize enterprise.
This is, perhaps, a rarer quality than one
might imagine, for it bee happened that
Governments have eometimee let the
good thing get by. They didn't know a
doptain of industry when they saw him,
or they were dieooar8ged from helping
him by the glamor of their opponents,. or
they were seized of a penny-wise pound-
loolieb policy that igneezed every dollar
before it was let go. The Rose Govern-
ment, while it has been prudent and
economical, has been progressive, too.
It hoe believed in spending or giving a
dollar to get bask five or ten or a
hundred, as the case may be, for the peo-
ple. One of the far Bighted_ things this
Administration has done bae been to au•
courage substantially Mr, Cierg0e, whom
Principal Grant bas oalled the Jason of
New Ontario. Indeed, ae far as indus-
trial development in the North country
is concerned, Mr. Olergue seems to have
been dieoovered about the same time as
we waked up to our splendid 0(0000ces in
that part of the Province. It woe a
happy conjuootion of the man and the
moment which bas operated to the bene-
flt of Mr. Clergue, the Government and
the people of Ontario. Mr. ()bargee has
gone ahead with an inspixiag confidence
in the future of Ontario, and in his wake
have sprung up faotories, railroads and
prosperous homesteads. The pulp 000•
cession granted to the Olergne syndicate
in 1804 was the forerunner of important
icdas0riee, and the pioneer of an ever -
widening pulp production which brought
the Algoma Central Railway in ire train.
As Hon. Mr. Stratton put it to hie con-
stituents the other day, the Government'°
bargain with the Olergua syndicate bee
pot in motion operations involving the
expenditure of nine million dollars al-
ready and nine million dollars more in
the near fotare. The demand on old
Ontario for supplies in the way of ma
ohinery,foodstuff and so on, ]set year
was a million dollars', and this year it
will reach two million doliare. The
;Morgue syndicate, in addition to its al-
ready big oolony of factories, is building
a steel plant to be at work in September..
This plant Will be capable of turninand in the
oat

Tau harmony that prevaded the House
of Commons wben the $500 additional
sessional allowance to the members and
the Senators was voted was a beautiful
pioture. It very clearly demonstrated
the fact that when self is at stake pablio
interest and the cry of extravagance ante
no figure. The many new and =nob
vaunted cements are not in it with a$500
grab as a binder. The Commons had to
inolude the Senate, we suppose, or the
bill might -bave been vetoed.. It o0n no
longer be said that the Senate would op.
pose anything the Laurier Government
would pave 8e here is a etriking illustra-
tion where these aged seers voted nvan-
imonely for the legislation. Aaron and
his friends are not the only people who

QInTe e. little attention 1s now being
paid by the guardians of the public health
and general good along the line of what
is termed the "spitting evil". In the
State of Indiana a Statute levies a heavy
fine for saoh offences and person are
warned against expectorating on side•
walks, floors, hotels, public buildings, &a.
This country ie waking op;aiong the same
line The Toronto Star says ,-"The
crusade against the spitting evil which
has been going on in the UOited States
for the pest few months is spreading to
Canada. Hamilton is decorated with
"Don't spit on the sidewalk" signs, and
they are proseontingthoee who offend on

carelessly "decorating" floors and side-
walks ie probably dee to want of thought.
Business people have their stores aornbbed
oat and perchance the first person in,
forgetful of everything bat his own de-
sires, spits on the well gleaned flour to
the dieguot of the owner of the establish -
meet. We know of oases where men and
half grown youths have done the same
thing in churches while professedly there
for worship. The Golden Rule practised
would put a stop to a good deal of the an.
pleasantness oansed by this kind of con-
cha to say nothing of the disgust
evinced by people, eepeoially women
folk, in either walking over a be•
spattered floor or over sidewalks that
were never pot down to be need for enoh
a purpose. If people must chew tobacco
they should at least remember that other
people have rights as well ea they and it
looks now as if laws will be passed in
this country along this line owing to the
pablio nuisance this habit has beaome.
A little consideration on the part of the
users of the weed would largely rediae
the canoe of complaint. We don't have
to go outside of our own town to see
illustrations of the discoloration of
Cement sidewalks by thio habit and not
a few store floors bear evidence of the
same thing.

It ism the memory of persona now living
that in 1887 a school consisting of a master
and thirty pupils was so effectually lost in
them as never to have been found. We are
informed that cremation was practiced by
the early Romans, to whom then did these
tombs belong and who are these buried in
the living rock 7 We instantly remember
the story of Joseph of Arimathea and that
Christ was planed in a new tomb hewn put of
the rock, it is an easy inference that his fol-
lowers would be anxtou0 to imitate the ex-
ample. This inference is confirmed by, proofs
that these are the bodies of early Christiane.
A kind of stye comes over one as he remem-
bers thatthis was not only the place of the
dead but often of the dying -those dying;by
violence. Rome was the uneomprotnismg
enemy of the early church. The Christians
having chosen their's in.imitation of Christ,
Mid their dead in the rook end these rocky
caverns which we now traverse with a .0001 -
mg akin to curiosity were to them the places
of resort in a time when they had no.place of
safety above g. round; not only were they
places of resort but also places of woroup
and these dark caverns often rang with songs
of praise. In th000 little enlargements, call-
ed chapels, the rite of baptism has often, itis
supposed been administered and here many
have by the sacred Sacrament commemorat-
ed the dying love of the Lord Jesus Ohriat
when they knew not whether they should
ever meet again. Even there they were not
free from persecution. It is said St. Stephen,
one of the first Bishops lived there and there
was slain. One of tate Ramon Emperors,
whoa° name I do not remember, issued an
edict forbidding the Christians to meet in
these places and sexing a multitude 8o in one
day ordered his soldiers to wall up :the place
and not one of them ever came out. It may
seem strange but for over a thousand years
all knowledge of these Catacombs seemed to
be lost until sometime in the 10th century
when some workmen were digging for earth
to make a special kind of porcelain they

Ontario bas been fortunate in a long
saaoeseion of Liberal Premiers who unit-
ed to a remarkable extent the qualities of
prndenoe and progreeeivenese. At the
proper time, too, they were not want-
ing in aggressiveness. It will be a long
time before Ontario will forget the splen-
did fight made by Sir Oliver Mowat and
hie Administration for Provincial rights.
It is due to their efforts that all that vast
dietriot which we call New Ontario is
still a part of our heritage. This region
contains eoormoae mineral and pulpwood
reeonroes, and at least aixteen million
acne of arable land, being more than wee
ander cultivation in old Ontario last year.
This great domain, bigger than some
European kingdoms, wee saved for
Ontario by a Liberal Government.

It's the Condition of Your
Nerves that Either Makes
Your Life a Round of
Pleasure or a Use-
less Burden.
To many women life is one round of
eiokneee, weakness and ill health. To
attempt even tbelightest household duties'
fatigues them. Many of the eymptome
accompanying this state of deolioe are : a
feeling of tiredness on waking, faintness,
dizziness, sinking feeling, palpitation of
the heart, shortness o breath, lose of
appetite, cold bands and feet, headache,
dark circles under the eyes, pain in the
bank and side and all the other accom-
paniments of a run-down and weakened
oonatitntion.
All these' symptoms and oondibions are
dimply the result of a poor quality and
defective °iranlation of the blood, with a
wasting away of the nerve ferns.
