• Uncle Sam's Best
Customer
Figures .cenapiled in the Department
of Commercei at Washington indicate
that at the present moment Canada is
ithe largest consumer of American pro-
d
ucts, replacing the United Kingdom
in that position. For the first eight
months of 1927 Canadian purchases
amounted to $544,053,208; those of the
United Kingdom were less than $18,-
617,389. As Great Britain has hither-
to been the largest -single export mar-
ket for American goods of all sorts,
this means an interesting change in
the economic situation.
.• Much as this may mean to the
rUnitt
ed States it perhaps means more
Canada. It would not gave been
;risiuch if that country had not been in
ble for the Dominion to buy so
uch admirable condition financially.
}The truth is that Canadian business
has been healthy and prosperous and
"Is stil climbing. In agriculture, in
!
manufactures and in mining the con-
ditioris have been such .as to- warrant
,
sound expansion. .
' The great wheat crop of 1925 start -
'ed Canadian agriculture upon a new
career of prosperity. It came at a
time when world prices for grain
were satisfactory. As those .prices
continue reasonably good in the world
markets there is no reason why this
advantage should not continue. Water
deVelopment has provided cheaper
aower for the factories, which in turn
have been able to...employ more work-
ers and turn out more goods. That
!this prosperity has been national rath-
er than local has been made evident
through reductions in income taxes.
Automobile purchases in the U. S.
for the period covered by this survey
aggregated about $22,000,000 in valuer.
!There were corresponding purchases
of motor trucks and parts for replace-
ment. In the seine period American
. exports of cotton goods to Sanada ag-
gregated 38,000,000 pounds, as against
a total of 75,000,000 for a correspond-
ing period last year. If estimates
made by the Department of Agricul-
ture are correct, Canada .is now bey-
ing about two-thirds of all her foreign
goods in the markets o fthe United
States.
If Canada is a good customer Of the
United States, so also is the United
Stats a good customer of Canada.
Lase year we bought more goods n
Canada than in. any other one foreign
country, the total running Wel up to -

ing the same standards oa honesty in

Springing into existenee on pioneer
flying fields, the new air language has
already achieved a permanent place

THE ONLY MEDICINE
BABY HAS HAD,
Is What Thousands of Mothers
Say of Baby's Owu Tablets
Once a mother has used Baby's Own
Tablets for her little ones she will use
nothing else. Experience teaches her
that they are without an equal for re-
lieving baby of any of the‘many minor
ailments which afflkt him at one time
or another. The Tablets never fail to
be of benefit—they cannot possibly do
harm as they are guaranteed to be
free from all Injurious drugs.
Concerning Baby's Own Tablets
Mrs. Russell Hill, Norwood, Ont.,
says;—"I shall always have a good
word to say for Baby's Own Tablets.
I have given them to our baby girl.
In fact they are the only medicine she
has ever had and I am proud to say
that she took second prize at our baby
show. 'She is eleven months old and
weighs 22 pounds. No mother whose
child is peevish or ailing will make a
mistake in giving Baby's Own Tab-
lets."
Baby's Own Tablets are sold by
medicine dealers or direct by mai/ at
25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams'
Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.

The Most Obliging Man
An American newspaper corres-
pondent claims to have discovered the
most obliging man in the world, in the
person of a passenger on board the
steamer Rensselaer, during a recent
voyage. This hero noticed that a let-
ter had blown from the hands of one
of the passengers into the Hudson
River With" a gentlemanly, "I'll get
it for you,' he dived over the side. The
lifeboat was lowered ,and when the
model of courtesy was returned to the
ship he handed over the letter with
the comment, "I am afraid it is wet."
The report says that he spoke with a
Swedish accent, so Europe may take
the credit for his upbringing It is a
pretty tale, but one feels that a really
obliging man would have offered to
dry the letter or to type out a copy
neatly on the ship's typewriter.—Glas-
gow Herald.
