But what are pointed out by wis
residents of Canada's capital as Bi
Interests afe neither his nor inti
eating.
The cartoon, are al/ wrong. Yo
know that big, swollen, . thick-neoke
fellow in the cartoons that is labelle
"Big Interest." Well, in reality, it
looks more like a member of parlia
meet. The Big Interests look more
like the cartoon character 'labelled
"Taxpayer"—little, wizened, worried
looking fellows. '
in the dining rooth of the Chateau
Laurier 1 saw a Big Interest and a
a ell known ex -cabinet minister lunch
ing together. The Big Interest weigh
ed about ninety-fwuads and was eat-
ing pickles and eoda biscuits. The
member of parliament was consum
ing a filet mignon about two inches
thick and four vegetables.
The Big Interests, such as the rail-
roads, banks and organized manufac-
turers, alt have resident engineers ir.
Ottawa whose drat duty is to see that
an enthusiastic government of the
people, by the people, for the people,
does not let the Big interests perish
from the earth. Their lesser duty is
to look into any little matters that
are required and see how best to
get them; and then get them.
This latter process is called "lobby-
ing," The word is derived froin the
-lobbies to the chamber of the (louse
of Commons. But bhe lobbying is
done .mostly in hotel rooms, restaur-
ants and apartment houses where ¢rte
Big Interests dwell.
When a Big Interest wants some-
thing, it goes forth and preaches the
gospel of what A wants. It gives
little dinners -to members and dis-
cusses statecraft oven'. the cigars.
There is nothing to peeveat a private
citizen, which a Big Interest i7, call-
ing on government officials and giv-
ing dinners to members. There is
nothing dishonest about lobbying.
The same week, the two biggest lob-
bies going on in Ottawa were one
to establish a safe and sane freight
rate and the other—which had a far
more imposing array of. prominent
men assembled than the railways—
was trying to get a government
grant for the purpose of fighting
venerial disease throughout Canada.
The only trouble about lobbying is
that the Big Interest can afford to
keep a resident engineer in the capi-
tal always on the job, while the Little
Interests can't. But with a govern.
ment such as we have in Ottawa now
with a parliament that is practically
always a full house, and in Which
there is a considerable number of not
old but new politicians who represent
nothing but the strong public desire
to see just what government •means,
the Little Interests are bound to get
a fairer shake than they have ever
got before.

No other medicine gives the same
satisfaction to mothers as do Baby's
Own Tablets. They are equally good
for the newborn babe or the growing
child and are absolutely guaranteed
to be free from opiates or other harm-
ful drugs. They are a mild but thor-
ough laxative and cannot possibly do
harm—they always do good. Con-
cerning them Mrs. Jos. Ache, Gateau
Road, N. B., writes:—`I think ,that
Baby's Own Tablets are a marvellous
medicine for little ones. I gave them
to my little girl with :such -good ,re-
sults that I now strongly recommend
them to all mothers." The Tablets
are sold by medicine dealers or by

WHY DO WE HALF CLOSE OUR
EYES WHEN WE COUGH?
Even though we are unconscious
of the action itself, we invariably
contract the muscles of the eyes
when we cough, half [losing the
eyes and producing an effect similar
to that of squinting, in spite of .the
fact that the eyes apparently have
nothing to do with the action of
clearing our throats from the for-
eign substance whieh is irritating
them.
This instinctive action, as common
to infants as it is to adults, is due
to the .fact that nature is endeavor-
ing to protect the eyes from the ex-
cessive blood pressure produced by
the exertion of the coughing, and
this protection naturally .takes .the
same form -as if some attack were
being anode u,,,,ppoon the eye from the
outside. Ooft.hing, like any other
violent motion of the head, causes
the blood to flow more freely to this
part of the body, and the pressure of
the blood in .the arteries and the
veins is increased to such an extent
that there is often serious danger -of
a ruptured ,Mood vessel. Contract-
ing the muscles, however, reduces
this strain and makes it possible for
the delioate veins around and .in the
eyes to withstand the .pressure. •But
in spite of this, there are often cases
in which violent spells of coughing
produce a bloodasho't 'appearance of
the eyes„ broken veins and even
more serious consequences.
TO CONNECT CITY AND
COUNTRY ROADS.
Motorists will greet with satisfac-
tion the information that tbq pros-
pects for •bhe conatrution of several
of the road entrances to Toronto dur-
ing the current season dov' material-
ly improved, The Ontario Highways
Department made the first open ,move
I in the, shuffle for the position that
has btif".going on between the pr'o-
vince and the city last Beek, adter-
tieing for ,ter/derd f wetit on ,Bioog
Street, '[test of the itimber, on Yenge
a!S
Street, and on Centr, Road, north
Cuuksville. Althoup,• officials
of
at
Queen's ,park refused ..untmit thein,
selves on the point, the step was gen-
erally considerated to m!ieate that Mr.
Biggs was preparing t•, go ahead with
his $5,000,000 plan to carry the Pr
vincial roads into the city, with or
without the eity's consent.
Hard on the heels of this [move cam
the announcement that a majority o
the controllers had conte out in favo
of the eity's going into the Provinci•
road system, provided the city cool
be relieved of payment of its sha
of support of the Toronto and Yor
Roads Commission The latter poin
was the subject of a conference be
tween Hon. Mr. Biggs and Mayo
Maguire, recently, Although no of
ficial announcement %vas made as t
the results of the conversations it i
understood that assurance was give
that the government would favorabl
consider a formal application for th
city's divorce from the Toronto an
York Roads 'Oommiss:•on.
The advantage that would accrue
to the city, should ;ueh a step be
taken, would be considerable, as.
under the agreement with the York
Commission, the city pays thirty -per
cent. of the total disbursements of
that body. Under the proposed a-
greement with the province, the city
would pay only one-tifth. The gov-
ernment's plan calls for the expendi-
ture of $4,$13400 un the main roads
in the district surrounding Toronto,
of which amount the city will be ask-
s dto provide twenty per cent. Pay-
ment would .be over a period of three
years.
Plans of the Toronto and York
Roads Commission contemplate con-
struction of same 180 miles of road.
Up to the end of December last,
the city had contributed $807,167,
York County $786,448, and the Pro-
vincial Government. $1,111,789. The

struction of a macadam base course
is called for on the Centre, Road for
five miles north of Cookeville, and
for six miles on Yonge Street, north-
erly from the end of the pavement
at Holland -Landing. Construction of
a new tErindate bridge over the
Credit River on Dundas Street, is
planned, and tenders will •also be
let -for grading work in Etbibicoke,
Toronto, and Trafalgar Townships.
As for the high-level bridges over
the Humber and Don et Moor and
Yonge Streets respectively, and the
subway under the G.T.R. •tracks on
an easterly extension of the Dan-
forth, ribose works are still .the sub-
ject of negotiation between the ,pro-
virjce and .clty. The original pro-
vincial plans called for a bridge
width of forty feet. The city cf -
jeotcd 'and the Highways offloial
signified their . willingness to' in-
crease the width to sixty-six feel,
or even eighty if the city felt the
latter was necessary. The same pro-
posal with regard to, the subway
was ma+le and accepted. 'Phe plans

e A NERVOUS BREAKDOWN
f
al
• When the Blood is Out of Order
rethe Nerves Are Starved.
k
• The nerve system is the governing
✓ system of the whole body, controlling
- the heart, lungs, digestion and brain;
a so itt is not surprising that nervous
a disturbances cause acute distress. The
n first stages of nervous debility are
y i noted by irratability and restlessness,
e in which the victims -seem to he op -
d pressed by their nerves. The matter
requires immediate attention, for
nothing but suitable treatment will
prevent a breakdown. The victim,
however, need not despair, for even
severe nervous disorders may be re-
lieved by improving the condition of
the blood. It is .because Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills enrich the blood that this
medicine has proved. beneficial in ner-
vous disorders. The nerves thrive on
the better blood made by these pills;
the appetite improves, indigestion is
better, sleeplessness no longer trou-
bles the nerve -shattered victim, and
life generally takes on a cheerful as-
pect. The value of these pills incases
of this kind is shown by the experi-
ence of Mrs. Jelin Macdonald, Car-
digan, P. E. I., who says:—"I have
much cause to be grateful to Dr. Wil-
liams' Pink Pills. I was suffering
from nervous breakdown and my con-
dition gave alarm to both my friends
and myself. I suffered almost con-
tinuously from nervous headaches, my
appetite was poor, I •hardly got anysleep, and .in every way I was badly
rundown. A friend advised me to try
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and after I
,had taken them for a while there was
a noticeable improvement in my con -
di -tion. I continued using the pillsuntil I had taken twelve boxes, when
every symptom of the trouble was
gone, and I have since. enjoyed the
best of health."
You can. get Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
through any dealer in medicine 01'by
mall at 50 cents a box or six boxes
for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams'
Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. -
that set by the standard of the
Pro-
vincial roads, the great increase in
traffic having necessitated heavier and
mare costly construction on the main
roads.
Quite evidently •Queen's Park is
confident that the Province and the
city will be able to come to an agree-
ment, satisfactory to 'bath parties.
W. A. McLean, Deputy Minister of
the Department of Highways stated
this week that tenders have been call-
ed fa$ on the assumption that a fav-
orable reply will have been received
from the city before the contracts are
iet.
We have been assured by . Com-
missioner Harris and others that we
would have a prompt reply to the
p•ro
posataon placed .before them,"
he said, .in referenee to the $5,-
000,000 plan placed before the city
officiatl by his department. "We
felt that if this work is to go on this
season, no further delay could be
allowed in the advertising for
tenders. We fully anticipate that,
before the .tenders are received, a
favorable reply will have been 0re-
