PRIZE FOR THE REST SPINE

ed for the woman who has the most
perfect back and five hundred dollars for
the child with the best back, The con-
test is instituted by the National Leakue
for the Prevention of Spinal Curvature.
The award is to be made upon the ev.1-
dence of side and back photographs sent
to the league, together with a technical
report from ad osteopathic physician,
located in the town where the contestant
lives. I
Dr. F. P. Millard of Toronto, Ont., the
preAden-r. of the league, will act as judge
in awarding the prizes. I
The league has instituted a vigorous
campaign throughout the United States
and Canada, for the purpose of saving
children, and consequently the coming
generation, from spinal curvature, Three
quarters of the school children in this
country have faulty spines. The percent-
age of incorrect backs in girls is even
larger.
It is expected this contest will not only
arouse public interest is prevention of de
formity and in establiEbing better posture,
but it wii' produce a mass of statistics and
photographic evidence which will be of
vast value in the scientific consideration
of this subject in the future. As ose-
opathic physicians specialize to suclit`a
large extent upon the spine, the league
decided to require a report of the technical
examination of every spine by an oseopath.
Activities of this organization are not
limited to this hemisphere, as an endowed
7charitable clinic has recently been opened
in London by its British branch.
An astonishing feature of the situation
is that the majority of these cases of cur-
vature are unsuspected by the children,
teachers, and even by medical examiners
themselves. The public thinks of spinal
curvature as an obvious deformity which
can be seen across the street. This is the
condition which results from -neglect of
these cases in the early stages, Any
deviation from the perfect perpendicular
constitues spinal curvature and should be
detecteci in its incipiency in order that
treatment may be instituted immediately.
Treatment correctly administered in the
very first stages prevents the gross de-
formity and accomplishes the result in a
comparatively shor,� time.—Advt.
Found—Fifty Dollars!
We were a little surprised the other day
to find $50 on the road beside a fence at
the corner of a prominent farmer's house,
and more so to find that it had lain
for several weeks unmolested and was be-
ginning to look much the worse from ex-
posure. The money was in the shape of
a corn planter, which will have to be re-
placed by a new one before another
.Season, unless better cared for. If we
had the money that is lost every year by
neglect of farm machinery, we would not
be running a newspal5er.—Petrolia Adver-
tiser.

Formosa Has Palace Garden
Visitors to Formosa of late have been
greatly attracted by one of the, prettiest
and most unique little parks to be found
anywhere in Ontario. This is the Palace
Garden which Mr. Chris. Weilei has
developed about his mill, in the village.
Towering rocks, ornamental trees and
miniature canals contribute to the scen-
ery of the place, which is visited every
year by thousands of birds of many var-
ieties, for Mr, Weiler is a great friend of
the feathered tribe and ranks with Jack
Miner of Kingsville, as a tamer of wild
fowl.
Some time ago, drilling operatons for
oil resulted in the striking of a flowing
well of water, which has now been drain-
ed off into the stream which drives the
Weiler mill and adds to the beauty of the
park. The old-fashioned mill wheel it-
self is a subject of interest and curiosity
to many.
At the entrance to the gardens huge
overhanging 1 rocks lend an aspect of
grandeur to the natural gateway andever-
green trees carry out the idea of an am-
phit,beatre of great natural charm. Mr.
Weiler has collected flowers and trees of
wildest possible variety, including many
hitherto unknown to this section, and al-
though he considers that he is only be-
ginning his work of beautification, reports
an offer of $18,000 for the property.
T here have been visitors from all over
Canada this year, as well as tourists from
points as far distant as Los Angeles, Cal.,
all of wholin expressed delight, at the
beauties of the gardens. The grounds
are freely used by picnic parties and their
developements will mean much to For-
mosa during the next few years.

THE vital issue in the coming election—
in fact, the only issue—is the Tariff,
and to every clear thinking Canadian
it should be readily apparent that a Pro-
tective Fiscal Policy is absolutely essential
to stability, progress and development.
Every important country in the world
upholds Protection as , hn essential eco-
nomic principle. Even Great Britain—so
long the stronghold of Free Trade—has
now adopted laws that constitute Pro-
tection of the most effective kind. In fact,
the present policy among most nations is
towards raising their tafiff walls, not lower-
ing them. In the face of these facts it
would be suicidal for Canada to do exactly
the reverse and discard the fiscal system
which has been responsible for its progress
during the past forty-three years.
Free Trade would mean death to Can-
adian Industry. It would also result in
the immediate closing down of Canadian
plants of foreign firms, with consequent
additional unemployment. There are to -day
650 American factories alone in Canada.
Similar proposed ventures would be aban-
doned. New capital would refuse to come
to a Country lacking adequate protection
and present industrial enterprise would be
promptly strangled by foreign competition.
The preservation of the home market by a
Reasonable Protective Tariff is vital to,
both city dweller and agrarian alike—now
as never before. More capital is urgently
needed for the development of Canada's
enormous resources, which will result in
a lessening of unempkoyment and an in-
creased population, More work and more
workers will produce an enlarged home
market for products of both city and farm,
and the exodus of Canadian men and
women—and the dollars they earrit—will.
be precluded.
The United States has slammed her tradie
door in the face of Canadian farmers by
adopting the Fordney Bill, and the farmer
Is consequently now even more dependent
