"Greater Dublin" is 'blur war=• -cry of a now organization which has been formed recently in the Irish capital for the purpose of bring- ing about the e:onsolidathon of the outlying 'residential suburbs with the city proper. It has the support of many inliuential citizens and its only opgxoslenes ate. those whose financial or political interests would be affected by the change, It is an old bompiaint that Dub- lin is one of the dirtiest and most ilqualid cities in the world. An Irish American who visited the city recently dell of enthusiasm for the land of his fathers went away disgusted. lie declared that he• "had never seen more hopeless, dirty and degraded poverty even fn Naples. He was disposed to blame the Dublin corporation for the condition of affairs which shocked him so, but while the cor- poration is to blame to a certain, extent it is not responsible in the sense that be was disposed to hold lt. TAX RATE IS HIGH. The trouble ie that with the best will in the world the Dublin cor- poration has no money far civic improvements, and especially for providing better housing for the very poor, and it won't have any until the inhabitants of the pros- perous suburbs are made to pay their share. The tax rate is now tar too high and to .make it any higher would be simply to invite disaster. Dublin proper is suffering in two ways. Year's ago her aristo- eraey left her for London, and the fine old houses in the squares which small bear the names of the coat Irish families which occupied em once have been cut up into tenements for slum dwellers The prosperous commercial class have falso left the city. They have been attracted by fresh 'new liouaies, cheaper rents, sand lower taxes in suburbs like Eathmines, Pembroke sncl Bladder* and the houses that they once occupied have also fallen on evil: days, Even the better class artisans are leaving the city tar the new suburbs. Both of the latter classes. however, belong to Dublin, They come into the city every morning to earn their living and they leave it at night. There is no physical division between the sub- urbs and the city and the suburban dwellers really are escaping their responsibility for the sanitation of the city, out of which ,they make their living, and for the housing of the workers without whom their prosperity would not exist. .A.Ia F R AID OF UNIONISTS. Perhaps it is natural that these suburbanities should resist the an- nexationof the suburbs by the city and try to keep their, low taxes as long ,a.s possible, but they -Would hardly prevail- if the political ele- ment did not enter into the caI- tulation, and curiously enough, both nationalists and unionists are united on this one issue. ' The Suburbs are largely unionists in olitics and the city is nationalist, he .Dublin corporation elected as It is by the ,old city area, is over- whelmingly nationalist, and it has the control of a good deal of pat- ronage. Its members are afraid that if Greater Dublin became a .Eget they would be swamped by the Unionist vote of the suburbs. The unionist suburbanities are not so ;Ave i of. this and they fear that if Wes, allowed themselves to be ab- sorbed by the city they would lose their eontrol of their little in- dependent unionist townships. Doth parties are united in the de- sire to hold on to what they have as, in this case, it is hard for pat- riotic .len who desire only the good of Dublin as a whole to make head- way, WISE JOHNNY.

Sts• Anne des Monts, Gaspe Co., Que., Nov, 6 (Special). --;'It is six months since I was _cured, and .1 have had no return of my trouble," in these words, Napoleon Vaillan- court, a well known resident of this place, gives evidence that Dodd's Kidney Pills not only give quick relief to sufferers from Kidney Dis- ease, but clean that 'disease out, root and branch, and cure it per- maueitly. That,.. Mr. Vailianeourt had Kid- ney` Disease everyone here knows. That he is cured is also established beyond a doubt. Dodd's Kidney Pills did it. "My back bothered me, also my heart and my kidneys, and my limbs would cramp," Mr, Vaillancourt states in giving his experience, Now all that is gone and he is a sound, healthy man, Do you won- der that he recommends Dodd's Kidney Pills/ Dodd's Kidney Pills cure quick- ly and permanently because they go right to the root of the trouble. They act directly on the Kidneys. They never fail to cure. S014LE ilUMAN BOATS. When you throw, a pieee of wood into the water and watch how nicely it floats, has it ever occur- red to you to make yourself into a boat, and to go floating about as easily and coolly as a real boat does? This may sound very queer, but to one who has confidence in him- self it is quite practicable, as was proved many years ago by Dr. Bedale, of Manchester. This gentleman, a noted long distance swimmer, was often to be seen floating about the River Mersey for hours at a time. He used to fast- en, a •.strong belt, around his waist,. and attach to it a, light mast and sail, which he would furl or un- furl as he lay comfortably on his back, and no doubt it was very en- joyable. This was carried a step further by another noted swimmer, Captain Royton, who used to think nothing of sailing up and down the English Channel, clad in a dress inflated with air, and with a sail fixed to his feet. Once, indeed he actually crossed the Channel from Dover to Calais, but on this occasion he used a paddle with which to steer him - A Pill That is Prized.—There have been many pills put upon the market and pressed upon public at- tention, but none has endured so long or met with so much favor as Parmelee's Vegetable Pills: Wide- spread mise of them has attested their great value, and they need no further advertisement than this.

Every farmer should have a number of young horses growing and coming eu for Immo use and for sale. A colt can be grown as easily and cheaply as a calf, and at the same time the mare which • mothers it will make a half team for general farm work. The writer has a teapu of young mares of nearly the same size and age. - During this last season ono of them has raised a. colt'ne sr worth at least $75, while the other mare working by her 'side has raised none. The mare with the colt has done exactly the same work asthe• mare which has no colt and mew' at the close of the early summer's work she is in as good corldition as her mate, with both on the fame feed and care. A colt, of course, is some bother and consumes -some feed.- The same is true in growing any domestic animals. But with. a . little 'pati- ence in the handling of the .mare and foal, a mare doing general farm St=ork, should raise two colts every three years and do about as well as with none. The colt will represent at least 100 per cent. pro - 'A friend is one who not only izlls a. want, but wants to fill it. In fact, so little extra care and feed aro required that the young animal can be. grown without notic- ing the feed it consumes. • FOR HOUSEHOLD ACCIDENTS Zant-Butt is so Very 'Creole'.

Sawyer, of Keene, Ont., writes :—"My husband is engaged on a farm, and one day, while chop- ping wood, the top of the axe broke and fell upon his foot, cutting a nasty gaeh. The wound was so bad that we first thought we'slzould have to get a doctor, but we finally de- cided to use lam-Buk. "Well,. the Zara-Buk treatment proved a great success.

It is now co:p10ely' healed' and my husband says he will nevoz be without a box of Zara -Bek in the house." Over and over again lam -lank has been proved to be the worker's best remedy. As soon as applied to a cut, a burn, a. scald, or any skin injury, it relieves the painand it sets up healing. It also prevents blood -poisoning or inflammation It is a sure cure, too, for eczema, piles, ulcers, old wounds, bad leg, ringworm, scalp sores, festering, running sores, eruptions, cold sores, chapped hands, etc. Its absolute purity, also, makes it the ideal balm for babies.

As everyone .knows, . it is clangor- ous to stand near .a tree during a thunderstorm, but, if anyone is so foolish as to do it, ho will do well to learn against the tree. If ho ;does this, .the charge goes in at his shoulder, burning , it, and then passes down the skin along the middle of his back. Arrived at the legs, it may run along one or both. It will seriously burn' the knees and other prominent parts, get out through the, stockings, or 'bore a hole through the boots, or destroy the boots altogether.' But if he stands near a tree or wall with- out being in contract, the stream of lightning may jump to the head bones, and cause instant death. If it doesn't do this, it will probably burn the . hair and travel over the skin of the head, going gown the front of the body, or getting inside it, and doing terrible damage.
