Captain :Incll,.in the cameo of his story
of the disaster; said: "We were book at

to cheek the fire when the second 'officer

SORE ROAD EXPENDI'Tt1RE
Large Increase In the Amount Spent Under the
Colonization Roads Branch
A deepatoh from, Toronto says:
With the end of the road -building
season but three weeks away, offl-
cials of the Colonization Roads De-
partment are :busy figuring Out the
work donne during the year. The.
Government expenditure on coloni-
zation and by-law roads eonatruct-
ed under the supervision of the de-,
-partseent.will roach close eo $570,-
000, or $40,000 above that of last
year. Tho feature of the season's
work, .however, has been the large
amount of work undertaken by the
townships themselves under the by-
law system- The •116 by-laws under
spring indicated an expenditure of
roughly $175,000, with the Govern-
ment contributing Half, Asa mat-
ter of fact, the townships have
spent considerably more, than half
this sum.
According to W. Bennett, direc-
tor of colonization, the great handi-
cap the townships are faced with is
the high cost of material, gravel
and crushed stone, and this has
given rise to the suggestion that
the Government, either independ-
ently or through the new Highways
Commission, secure quarries and
gravel pits to supply the munioi-
palities with material at reasonable
which work was started in the prices.

BUILT RIGHT
Stomach, Nerves and Thinker Re-
stored by Grape -Nuts Food.
The number of persons whose ail-
ments were such that no other food
could be retained at all, ie large,
and reports are on the increase.
"For 12 years I' suffered from
dyspepsia, . finding no food that did
not distress rile," writes a Wis.
lady. "I was reduced from 145 to
90 lbs., gradually growing weaker
until I could leave my bed only a
sl-at'while at a time,and became
unable to speak aloud.
"Three years ago I was attracted
by an article on Grape -Nuts' and
decided to try it.
"My stomach was so weak I could
not take cream, but I used Grape -
Nuts with milk and lime water. It
helped me. from the first, building
rep my system in a manner most as-
tonishing to the friends who had
thought my recovery impossible..
"Soon I was able to take Grape -
Nuts and cream for breakfast and
lunch at night, with an egg and
Grape -Nuts for dinner,.
"I am now able to eat fruit, meat
and, nearly all. vegetables for din-
ner, but fondly continue Grape -
Nuts for breakfast and supper.
"At the time of beginning Grape -
Nuts I could scarcely speak a sen-
tence without, changing words
around or `talking crooked' in sonic
way, but I have ;become so
strengthened -that I no longer have
that trouble." , Name given by.

A despatch from Ottawa says:
Investigations which have been
made concerning thq rainfall in the

dollar undertaking may become
seriously affected through lack of
water for the locks unless a careful
forestry policy is adopted so as to

the present rainfall,: In order to do
this the Government may be com-

POSTMASTERS' SALARIES.
To Be Increased' from $$5 to $50
Per Year.
A despatch from Ottawa. says :
The Postmaster -General, Hon. L.
P. Pelletier, with the approval of
the Government, has decided to in-
erease the minimum salaries of
rural postmasters from $35 oto $50
per year. The necessary legisla-
tive action to give effect to the de-
cision will be taken at the coming
session of Parliament. The in-
crease will affect several thousand
rural postmasters in all parts of
Canada, The Postoffice surplus for
the present year will be much more
than sufficient to meet the addi-
tional charges on revenue.
Old Folkes' Coughs
Permanently Cured
The Public le Loud In Its Praise of the
Modern Direct Breathing Cure.
Elderly people take cold easily. Un-
like young folks, they recover slowly,
if ever. That is why so many people
past middle life die of pneumonia.
Elven though pneumonia does not de-
velop and kill, coughs certainly weak-
en all elderly people.
Cough Syrups seldom do much good
because they upset digestion. Any
druggist or doctor knows that a much
more effective treatment is "CA-
TARICHOZONE," which heals and
soothes the irritated surfaces of the
throat.
In using Catarrhozone you do not
take medicine into the stomach -you
simply breathe into the throat, nose
and lungs rich piney balsamic vapor,
so full of healingpower that P ve colds,
catarrh and bronchitis disappear al-
most instantly.
"At sixty-eight years of ago I can
testify that I am never troubled with
coughs or colds," writes J. 01. Pilgrim,
of Kingston. "They used to be the
bain of my life, and that was before
I used Catarrhozone, which was re-
commended to me by C. L. Prouee,
druggist. To. use Catarrhozone is just
like being in an immense pine woods.
The balsamic vapor of Catarrhozone
is like a tonic, it is so stimulating to
the breathing organs, so soothing to
sore spots, so full of power to drive
out colds and congestion. I will al-
ways use and recommend Catarrh -
ozone as a preventive and cure for
coughs, colds, bronchitis, throat irrita-
tion and catarrh.

BIG HERD OF WOOD BUFFALO.
Resemble Prairie Bison, But Are
Much Wilder.
"There are fully 500 head of wood
buffalo west and north of Fort.
Smith, on the Peace and Great
Slave Rivers, in the extreme north-
eastern part of Alberta, at the 60th
parallel of latitude," ' said A. J.
Bell, who has charge of the North-
ern Indian agencies, on returning
to Edmonton from the silent North,
where he is guardian of Indiana of
the Yellow Knife, Dog Rib, Chi-
pewyan and 'Cariboo Eaters tribes.
"Some time ago I made -a pro-
posal tit' the -Dominion Govetnment
that the buffalo in the Fort Smith
district be confined by a fence in
the peninsula between the Peace
and the Great Slave Rivers," Mr.
Bell said. "This would' afford bet-
ter protection to the animals. The
fence, 125 miles in length, would
cost about $103,000.
' "The buffalo in the northern dis-
trict have every mark of reeem-
blanee to bison of the plains, .but
constant living in the heavy tim-
bered country has made, ahem muoh
wilder than the prairie buffalo.
They aro almost unapproachable.
As these animals are protected,
there should be a rapid increase in
their numbers.''

I COMMENT ON EVENTS I
Twenty Veers Aftor,
According to a prominent French en-
gineer the Panama Oanal looks will be
obsolete in twenty years, and a water
level acetal willrbe necessary. Under the.
circumstances porhape ;Mr, Bryan wad
well advised :when he 'endeavored- to- ver-,
suede Congress to pass hie Nidaritgua b111
by which the. United. States was ` to have
thesole right to build. a canal through
N'ioaragua-wherever it chose,' in return
for three million dollars. Some other
00n4108810110 :were to- be made, but . this
was one of the most important. As the
United States hoe built the Panama Canal
it is obvious that any other canal;through
Iron the Atlantic to. the Paoiilemeet be
controlled by, her or else the enemata;
expenditure. on Panama might be deem-
-ed welted, But in the next twenty yeaae
trade will /lave increased to such- an ex-
tent, according to the same authority,
that the Panama Canal with its lecke.
will be •unable to handle it. In that case
another oaaal through Nicaragua might
becomea nece5eity.. Considering the tre-
mendous posolbil1tiee of the western
ooaotd of North and .South America, the
millions of people they aro able' to sup-
port, and the comparatively few which.
they maintain at present, it seems quite
likely that. In due coarse two canoes will
not be one too many. To. look -ahead
'twenty years in these modern days takes
some imagination and daring. Most of
ueare satisfied with trying to make cer-
tain of looking ahead a day or two, There
is no knowing what may happen twente
years after the canal is opened. If New
York is to become the Obina of the United
States, and all the west coast is to take
the plane of Europe, one wonders what
nation will be in control of the canal.
Vacuum -cleaning the Blood,
Among the many remarkable addressee
and demonetratione given at the reoent
International Medical Congress in Lon-
don. there was nothing more promising
of future results of great value to human
kind than -Professor Able's account of h1e-

from these experisnente, that we can

it back to him freed of all impurities, but
thio is the possibility' suggested by Pro-
fessor Abol'e addreee. The immense value
of ouch a method in many di000a08 is so
obvious es to require no insistence.
Supposedly Harmless Medicines.
The numerone fatalities among ohil
dron, and even grown-ups, caused by par-
taking in undue quantitlee of palatable
medical preparations is alarming. The
necessity of placing supposedlyharmless
medic1nee where they will not be acces-
sible to children has been frequently em-
phasized. The custom of throwing Bare.
plea of drugs into yards and doorways es
one that should.. be abolished. Legisla-
tion is propoeed which providee that all
liquid medioineo containing poisonous
drugs bo put up in bottled of different
shape from the ordinary vials whereby.
they can be readily recognized bythe
sense of touch.
Another Antarctic Expedition.

party of Englishmen who will as an early
date sail for the Antarctic, sage ilia pure

Edward Land and make temperature and
magnetic observations, and adds. I else
want to explore land which no English-
man bee trod." The latter is his real
reason for setting out on this perilous
Journey. Monello research Is but an in-
cident of the undertaking. rho lure of
the unknown has gripped Trim, as it grip-
ped Colosnbue, as it gripped Livingstone
and Peary end Scott and Amundsen and
countlese others whohave set out to go

will grip others until there le nospot 011

and million donate of Europe's liquid

will press most evil upon lands which
