It de also frequently aveeal in parts of Switzerland, the majority of those affected living iai deep val- leys. The immediate cause of the die- eeee is not known but it seams to be associated with mineral pnodiicts con bained in certain dlr^inking waters, The great trcuble in arriving at any de- finite conclusion on this point is that the particular ingredients af the water that seem to cause goitre is some dis- tricts do not seem to have any such effect in other places. For instance, the carbonates end sulphates of lime and magnesia which are present in sante waters and have been credited with being the cauee of :goitre, are not found in the, waters of other are where goitre prevails. The disease is exceedingly ,common in India, and as a result of a very searching investigation of its cause -in that country and elsewhere, the opin- ion is held that goitre is+ caused by a germ that obtains admission to the I1mflan intestine and there ereabes. •a poison or toxin which so influences the thyroid gland that .ie undergoes enlargement. It would thus seem as if the ,gland was overworked and con- eedluently enlarged in trying to se- erete an antidote for the;poieons oulating through the system. For it is the function of the thyroid to pro- duce substances known as antidotes or antidotes that will neutralize poisons in the blood. ' This gexati in the intestine is supposed to poison the system to etueh an extent that the thyroid gland becomes enlarged through the strain of overwork, just similar to enlargement of the heart. Water can eerbainly,Ibe the means of communicating the disease, and certain waifs in European countries are actually frequented, fr uent d,w •ith this pur- pose ur-pose in view, by Hien who wish to escape military s'erviee. As these waters are rendered harmless by boil- ing, the idea of a causative germ be- ing in the- water seems well grounded, The goitre may be 'et the "simple" variety, that is 'mere -enlargement of the gland itself, in contrast to the kind where pulsation is noticed in the swelling,, and where the eyes are prominent or eipparently bulging in their. sockets. Cretinism or 'loss of function• of the thyroid is often seen children in countries such as India where the disease is prevalent Death from goitre it rare. The patient 'should be removed from the effected, area, or farting that'the drinking water !should be boiled before use. Great benefit has resulted from the use of ,the X- rays in this ,condition. Another remedy is iodine painted externally over the swelling and taken internally in the form of potassium iodine or tincture of iodine. In India biniodite of mer- cury is painted on the, swelling, fel- lowed :by exposing the neck for sev- ere' hours to .the rays . of the sun. Pressure symptoms may require a surgical operation. Ontario Rural Credits. The province of Ontario has decided' in favor of a system of ruraa.crediti to further agricultural development, and on the movement of the Hon. Manning Doherty, Minister of Agricul- ture, it has provided for the setting aside of $500,000 for the peirches° of bonds to be issued by the Agricultural Development Board for making long terns loans ear first mortgagee on farm property, Provision is also mode. Lor short term farm loans and for the for- mation of farm loan asseciaatfons in any township, Incorporated village, or unorganized territory in the province of Ontario. In this movement, Ontario ie fallow- ing the example set by Manitoba, where a system of rural credits has been In operation for some years, and has been responsible for loans aggre- gating $2,039,000 and the bringing un- der cultivation of about 66,740 acres of virgin soil. Whilst based upon the act of the western province, that of Ontario differs from it in some re- spects. It is provided that the capital stock of the association shall be made up of one share of par value for each member, and there must be at leant 'thirty members, . Subscribers shall be required to pay ten per cent. of par value at the time of subscription and the balance when called' upon, A board of seven directors, Wiesen by the Partners' organization, the pro- vince, and the township, shall pass upon all .loans ' whlch shall be In ef- fect for the year in which they are is- sued and may be renewable. The loans will be available for the pur- chase of seed, feed, implements and livestock and the erection of silos. The rate of interest is not_to exceed seven per cent. , Domestic Economy .

Master --"Tell your mietrees not to be ridiculous—I'll buy he -r another diamond ring," Why Men Fail. Men fail for various reasoue, little and big, . Most men fail because they are lazy. To be Lazy meeons•—to be late, to be slovenly, to be a poor eaoriomist of time, to shirk responsibility. It means to say of anything that es clamoring to be done. "No, I'm not going to do that, because' it isn't my work." Lazines is at .the back of most of the lesser reasons for failure, The minor cause's and derivatives frons that one great Major cause. ' It is so easy to dream in the sun end let the world go by; to dawdle and procrastinate, till one wakes up—ton, late. Late and lazy are, in fact, first cousins. If you are •late, you waste other - people's time as' well as your own. Lazy people have all the time there is, and yet they haven't time to be polite.. They distrain the forms of ceremony that sweeten life, They are grouchy, surly, gruff. It Pains them to be pleasant, to say. thanks and to smile. Therefore they ,remain underlings. There ie plenty of room at the bot- tom for the boy who never has learned to be polite. To be deferentiel is not to be ser- vile:- . It is merely to be decently re- spectful. The biggest men are the 111osE un- assuming and the most unpresuming, 11 is the insignificant people who fluff themselves up with a false and foolish pride and are forever'forating from the flimsy and slipery platform. of their own touchy dignity.

Wilder/00p Of the Gpvere- ment P••arty,-•dr rather, of the Cone servetive element, means he is'essur- ed of the sueeession of Mr. Lloyd George in the;pi'emiirshi'p, in the event of the latter': retiring through v11 - health, oe else in rase of any break up .of the .coalition, and the refsls'al of the Untenia'.ts•, •rind especially of the Tories, to give their approval to some of the progressive nneasutes of the present Prime Minister. There was • a close and inthilate friendship between Mr, Lleyd George and A,'Bonar Law, who preceded, Mx• chamberlain, especially during the last three .years. Mr. Bonar Law` was full o£' admiration for the Premier, as the man who was -more responsible than.•any oneelse for Great Britain's: victory iss,the late war, and was most loyal in his devotion to him. That intimacy does not exist 'between Mr. Bonar Law's sueeeseor and Mr, Lloyd George, Nor Mr. Chamberlain like- ly ever to obtain such a Bold upon his Tory followers as Bonar Law, who on several occasions, by mane of his quiet powers at persuasion, was able to prevent their -front deserting the Lloyd George administration. The question is being asked as to whom The Prime Minister really' wish- ed to have .in Bonax' Law's place. He alone seems to have known of the ,Conservative leader's impending re- sigtp&tion•;, A.slsumedly-if Lord Robert Cecil had ,known of it, he would not have crossed the ,floor of the House two months ago to throw in his lot with the opposition. While it is equal- ly .certain that .. Winston Spencer Churchill would . have . declined to undertake hie official trip to Egypt and tit Palestine had he Ihad any ink-. ling that Bonar Law wee about to vacate his leadership. It is more than probable that. Mr. ' Churchill would have beenelected, if he lied been_. on the •scene' insteitcl of away in the Levant; while Lord Birkenhead would have hada very good- chance if he had remained in the House of Commons as Attorney -General, under bhe name of Sir Frederick Smith, instead et yield- ing to the lire of the Woolsack and of the lord High Ohancellership. All these men would have been able to furnish to the Conservatives, whe constitube the overwhelming bulk of the Unionist party, a greater degree of inspiration and enthusiasm, and possess magnetism and qualities of leadership far superior to those of Austen Chamberlain. They made the mistake of their lives, the one inleav- ing England, the second in accepting the Lord High Chancellorship, .and the third" in eross5n'g the floor of the House; mistakes which cost ahem the virtual right of succession to thg- preniership.
