Following up the promise coirained
in the Speech from the Throne Sir Wil-
liam Hearst introduced in the Legisla-
ture the three Bills necessary to place
women upon full political equality with
men in the Province of Ontario. The
first bill submitted gives women the
right to election to the Legislative As-
sembly, the second gives them fhe
,yi:ght to be elected or appointed to
'municipal ()dice, while the third gives
farmers' wives the right to sit as mem-
hers upon school boards.
There was no explanation of the trio
of measures, and none was needed,
since all three, though important are
simple amendments to existing statutes.
That they will meet with general ap-
proval by the members was indicated
by the applause that followed their in-
troduction, both sides joining in pound-
ing desks.

Calendar.
Before giving the reasons why
every farmer should have a spray
calendar let us state what a spray
calendar is. It is the gathering to-
gether luto a small space—usually
just one sheet or page -of all the
necessary knowledge for the control
of the various insects and diseases
that attack our fruit trees and bush.
fruits;, so that Instead of ]raving to
search half a dozen bulletins the
farmer can obtain the required in-
formation almost at a glance. A spray
calendar is therefore a handy refer-
ence sheet on the control. of insect
pests and plant diseases.
!;very farmer should have a spray
calendar for the following reasons: -
1, Because it will save him time
in finding the necessary information
on the control La insects and plant
deseases.v
2. Because the information given
in the spray calendar Is more reli-
able than he can obtain from his
neighbors or any other source. It is
the best information that can be ob-
utined anywhere,
3, Because the spray calendar will
prevent cosily mistakes due to slips
of memory,
4, Because the spray calendar
states definitely when to treat the dif-
ferent pests. A week too early or a
week too late would in the case of
some of our worst insects and dis-
eases mean utter failure. There is a
good reason for each date of treat-
ment given in the calendar. It is not
guesswork.
5, Because the spray calendar
states deflultoly the mixture or mix-
tures to use in each case and gives
the proper strength. Too strong a
mixture would mean loss of stoney
and sometimes burning of the foliage
or fruit; too weak a mixture failure
to control the pest.
6. Because several spray mix-
tures, e.g., Bordeaux mixture, can be
trade at home, The spray calendar
tells how to Snake these.
7. Because by following the direc-
(tous given in the ,spray calendar,
almost perfectly clean fruit and much
more of it can be obtained.
Always ask 'for the latest spray
calendar, since tlieyare revised front
!time lb time, and new ,and Netter
methods added in place of the old as
soon as they Naive seen sufficiently
,tested.

tained? Send a postcard to tee Lee-

Artistic Roof
is the one that complete-
ly harmonizes with the
design and finishing of
the house. For this rea-
son there is a steadily
increasing demand for Brantford Asphalt
Slates for the modern style of homes.
Brantford Asphalt Slates have a surface
of crushed slate embedded into our asphalt
coating, the base of the roofing being. felt
saturated with asphalt. They are cut the
size of shingles, and their beautiful soft
colors of reddish brown and dark green give
a roof a most artistic appearance. The
colors are the natural shades of the slate as
it comes out of the quarries. Brantford
Asphalt Slates are, therefore, unfa.cleable
—never require painting.

follows: The chemical substance use,'

matically this chemical is fed into

was true of earlier types of plants,
for the gas to a.cumulate under pres-

TERRIBLE AGONY
FROM RHEUMATISM
A Sufferer Shows How Complete
Relief Was Obtained. •
Rheumatism is a trouble extremely
difficult to get rid of. If a tendency
to rheumatism is established in the
system it makes itself manifest by a
return of the acute pains with every
spell of bad weather. This is why so
many people think the trouble is due
to cold or da:ntp. The fact is known
however, to medical men, that with
the appearance of rheumatism there
is a rapid thinning of the Mood, and
that the rheumatic poisons are only
expelled from the system when the
blood is restored to its normal condi-
tion. This means that to drive rheu-
matism from the system it must be
treated through the brood, .and for
this purpose so other medicine has
been so suceessfur as Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills, These pills renew and
enrich the brood, thus: driving, out the
rheumatic poison, easing the aching,
painful, swollen, joints, and restoring
the victim to general good health.
Among the rlieurnatic sufferers who
have been. cured by tire ase of this
medicine is Mrs. W'tt. Johnston;
l.hathalnl Ont.( who says:_ "Some
years, ego, while living, in Plpunt For-
est, t Ines stricken, with issffleipmatory
rheumatism, from which 1 suffered
terrible .agony. -, Neither the doctor
who attended me, nor the remedies I
tried gave more than - :s little relief
for a time, and as a consequence, I
grew very eveak and was on the
verge of nervous prostration. At this
stage an uncle advised me to try Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills, as they had
cured him of a severe attack of rheu-
matism. 1 took Isis advice and faith-
fully used the pills for several
months, . when 1 found myself fully
restored to health, with every ves-
tige of the rheumatism, and every
symptom of the nerve trouble gone.
I have had no return of either trou-
ble since, and feel very grateful for
what Dr. Williams' Pink Pills did
for me."
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills can Ile ob-
tained through any medicine dealer,
or may be had by mail at 50 cents a
box or six boxes for 52.50 from The
Dr. Williams' !Medicine Co., Brockville,

him-
self
i -self regarding this identical will that
is causing, all this controversy."
"A statement of Hugh Mainwar-
iltg'st" Harold repeated ,In astonish-
anent; "stow did 0 come into your pose
session?" - '
"That is the strangest part of it,"
site replied, hurriedly, for they had
now reached the carriages in waiting
for them, "I received it through the
mail from America, a few days before
I left London, and front—you cannot
imagine whom—Mr. Merrick, the de-
tective. clow Ise ever knew my ad-
dress, or how he should surmise that
1 was particularly interested in you,"
she blushed very prettily with these
words, "Is more than I can understand,
however..
"I thine 1 can explain that part of
it," said Harold, with a smile; "but
!tow such a statement ever carte into
his hands is a mystery to Inc, I will
see you this evening without fail,"
and, assisting Miss Carelton Otto the
carriage, he bade her au revoir, and
hastened to rejoin young Mainwaring.
That evening witnessed rather a nov-
el reception in the private parlors of
the Savoy; both parties to the coating
contest being entertained ed bY
their mut-
teal
_teal
friends. When Harold Mainwaring
finally succeeded in securing a tete-a-
tete conversation with Miss Carleton,
she placed in his hands a small packet,
s:U'ing,—
"Ynq will find in this the statement
of which I spoke to you, and 1 wish
you would also read the accompany-
ing note, and explain how the. writer
came to have so good and understand-
ing of the. situation." '
With eager haste he drew forth a
sheet of paper little less tinge -worn and
yellowed than the ancient will itself,
upon which was written, in the meth-
odical business hand with which he
was so familiar, a brief statement to
the effect that a certain accompanying
document described as the last will
and testament of Ralph Maxwell Main-
waring had been drawn and executed -
as such on the night preceding his
death, its intent.and purpose being to
reconvey to an elder son the family
estate, to which he had previously for-
feited all right and title; that efforts
made to communicate with the bene-
ficiary had proved unavailing, as he
had left the country and his place of
residence was unknown. Then follow-
ed Hugh Mainwaring signature. At
the bottom of tlleepage, however, was
a foot -note of much later date, which
put a different complexion on the
foregoing, and which read as follows:
"It has now been ascertained for a
certainty that the beneficiary men-
tioned in the accompanying will is no
longer living., I have, therefore, a
clear title t0 the estate, as it would
revert to me at his death. The docu-
ment itself is worthless, except as a
possible means of silencing that
scoundrel, Hobson, should he attempt
to reveal anything of the past, as he
has threatened to do, and for this pur-
pose 1 shall retain it
in my
possession

"HUGH MAINWARING."
"Ali," said . Harold Mainwaring,
thoughtfully, as ise suddenly recalled
the morning when he had discovered
Merrick and his assistant dragging the
lake at, Fair Oaks, "1 think 1 understand
!tow this paper came into Merrick's,
poseession. It was evidently, kept In
the salve receptable which held the
will, but in any haste and excitement
at the discovery of the will 1 must
have overlooked it, - The box in which
these papers were kept afterwards tell
into A1errick's .hands, and he must
have found this,"
"That solves one riddle, here is the
outer," and Miss Carleton handed her
lover a small note, covered with a
tine, delicate chirography whose per-
fectly formed characters revealed a
mind accustomed to the study of min-
ute details and appreciative of their
significance. He opened it and read
the following:
"Aly Dear Miss Carleton:
"Pardon the liberty l take, but,
thinking the enclosed bit spit paper
night be of some possible assistance
to one in whose success I believe you
are deeply interested, I send it here-
with, ars for obvious reasons, I deem
this circuitous method of transmission
better than one more direct.
"As when taking leave of you on
board the 'Campania,' so now, permit
rate to assure you that if l can ever
serve you as a friend, you have but to
command me.
"Most sincerely yours,
"C. D. MERRICK."
A smile of amusement lighted Ilarold
Malnwaring's face ars, glanchir up from
the note, his oyes :net those of Miss
Carleton's with their expression of per-
plexed inquiry,
"This is easily explained," he said;
"du you remember the tall, slender
man whom we observed on board the
`Campania' as being rather unsocial and
taciturn?'
"Yes, 1 remember he rather annoyed
me, for I' fancied he concentrated con-
siderably more thought, and attention
upon its than the cir'cunistances called
for,"
"Which shows you were more ob-
serving than i, Such a thought neve

two that lie was not at -all surprised
by `he developments which followed
my return to this coutnry. Corse-
quently, it is not to be wondered at if
he has an inkling that you may be
somewhat interested In this case."
"But what could have been Mr. Mer-
rick's object in shadowing you?"
"I cannot say. It may have been 1
ally part of his professional vigilance
!r letting nothing escape his observa-
tion; but from the first 1 was conscious
of iris close espionage of my move-
ments. Now, however, 1 ant satisfied
that he had none but friendly inten-I
tions, and I appreciate Itis kindness
not t ntvarc only ' t s
i myself, but more
especially towards you."
"Will that -statement he of any as-
sistauce to you, tie you think?"
"1 hardly think so under our pre-
sent plans," he replied, after a mu -
meet's reflection; "under recent de-
velopments our plans differ so radi-
cally front what we first intended, that
we will probably have little use for
any of the testimony which we had
orgin:tlly prepared."
"But these recent developments
which have so changed your plans
must certainly have been In your favor
and have rendered your success the
more assured, have they not?"
"Not only more assured, but more
speedy and complete. To me, the
coming trial means far more than the
settlement of the COntrovery over the
estate; it means the complete and final
vindication of my character, so that I
can stand before you and before the
world acquitted of every charge which
my enemies would have sought to
bring against are,"
Her face grew radiant with synnpa- I
thy. "I well knots what that means to
you, and I would be first to congratu-
late you on such a victory, for my own .
sake; but 1 needed no public acquital
to convince me of your innocence,—'
rot even," she added, slowly, "when •
you yourself, for some reason, which i
hope one day to understand, were un -I
able to assure me of it."
His dark eyes, glowing with sup- I
pressed feeling, stet hers, the inten-
sity of their gaze thrilling her heart
to its inmost •depths.
"Do not think that 1 can ever for-
get that," he said in low tones which
seemed to vibrate through iter whole
being; "do not think that through any
triunt s or hie
p joyswhich the future may

1 can ever

Startled at the sudden solemnity of
his words and manner, site remained
silent, her eyes meeting Itis without a
shade or doubt or distrust, but full of
• wondering, tender inquiry, to which
he replied, while for an instant he laid

On the morning of the following
day a dense crowd awaited, at an .early
hour, the opening of the December
term of court; a crowd which was
steadily, augmented till, when the case
of ,Slainwaring versus Mainwaring was
idled, every available seat was tilled.
All parties to the suit were promptly
