The last few weeks' immense rush of
business was indeed gratifying. It proves
conclusively that the public in general have
faith in our announcements. We have already
stored articles for Xmas. delivery. And the
reason is quite apparent,-for'where can you
get values such, as we offer ?
In the Book Case and Writing Desk, our
stock is complete. What is more convenient
in the home than a Continuation Book Case ?
Prices froth $3.75 to $22.00.
Another shipment of Iron Beds this week.
The factory wonders what we do with so
many. There are six or seven good lines, and
if you leave half a notion of getting one, now
is your time to buy.
Don't forget that we bought a stock of
Window Shades below wholesale price, which
we are selling at close margin.

-There are seven vacancies in
Dominion constituencies at present.
All the vacant seats except North
Ontario were hold by Liberals.
-The term of five years as Lieu-
tenant -Governor of Ontario of Sir
Oliver Mowat expired on Wednes-
day, November 18. It is under-
stood he will continue to be Lieu-
tenant -Governor of the province
until his successor is appointed.

-Rt. Hon. Sir Wilfrid Laurier,
K. C., M. P., K. C. M. G., P. C.,
Prime Minister of Canada, was 61
years of age on Thursday last. He
was born at St. Lin, near Montreal,
Nov. 20, 1841. He entered the
Quebec Legislature at 30, and the
Dominion Parliament when 23.
He has sat for 28 years in the Ot-
tawa House, and has been Premier
six years and a half.

-The annual report of the Far-
mers' Institutes of the Province of
Ontario, just issued, indicates a
most prosperous year for these in-
stitutions. The membership for
the first six months of this year to-
tals 22,948, an increase of more
than 2,500 over last year. The
number of meetings held was 791,
while the attendance was the lar-
gest on record, 147,642. When it
is remembered that there are only
200,000 farmers in Ontario, a mem-
bership of 22,948 is exceedingly
good.
-The Toronto Telegram says: -
It is an outrage that Mackenzie &
Mann should be free to send $2,-
700,000 of this country's money to
Germany, while Canada's own steel
rail industry is threatened with
death in infancy through lack of a
market. When Mackenzie & Mann
are receiving the country's money
they are treated as Canadians,
When Mackenzie & Mann are spen-
ding the country's money they
treat the Clergue Steel Works as
an alien enterprise and send Cana-
dian money to Germany, to the
great prejudice of the people whose
cash and credit are building rail-
ways for Mackenzie & Mann.
-Mr. Thomas Southworth, di-
rector of the Bureau of Forestry in
Ontario, says in his report: -"Al-
though we have at present only 2,-
634,000 Acres in forest preserves, I
do not think it unreasonable to ex-
pect that ultimately the Crown for-
est of Ontario will comprise fully
25,000,000 acres, a State forest larg-
er than is possessed by any other
country that I know of. What a
forest of this size, owned by the
people as a whole, will mean to the
revenue of the province when plac-
ed under scientific control and sys-
tematically worked, is difficult to
conjecture. Already, with our
wasteful methods, and when only a
small part of this territory is being
operated, the province receives in
revenue about $1,000,000 per year.
The composition of this vast forest
is such as to make it the most val-
uable in the world,"

-At a large convention, recently
held in Toronto, one of the speak-
ers of the day, an American, Mr. 0.
N. Howard, of Rochester, N. Y.,
gave Canadians some wholesome
advice. Having had good oppor-
tunities to contrast the conditions
and achievements of Canada with.
Yankeedom, he unhesitatingly ad-
vised Canadians to pursue their
course independently of the United
States. Having clearly in his
vision the moral and economic
perils of that trust -ridden Republic
he declared : "You will make the
biggest mistake you ever made in
your lives if you ever become one
of us. You ought to go it alone
and work out the glorious destiny
made possible for you to attain.
God bas made it possible for this
great Dominion to be a beacon light
for the nations, but don't mix up
with the jobs we have to clean up
on the other side."
HOW THEY WILL VOTE.
(Toronto Telegram.)
An unsuccessful attempt has been
made to interview the Ontario
Cabinet Ministers as to how they
would vote personally on December
4tb, and the net result was what
has already bean announced : that
the Premier was in favor of the
measure and •the others were pot
making public demonstrations of
their intentions,
"X can tell you bow they will
vote," remarked a prominent offi-
cial to the Telegram, "and you are
not likely to find this prediction
discounted. There are only three •
that we are at all surd will vote for
the measure, and they aro Ross,
Davis Ana Dryden. You may safe-
ly mark J. R. Hpratton, J. 111. Gib-
son and Frank Latebfglil as against
prohibition. This leaves TOMO
to be accounted for and the Minis-
ter of Education is hard to place,
but it is generally understood that
he will also yote 'nay,' which
makes a majority of the Cabinet
against the referendum. It is q
mistaken idea, to suppose that there
is any moral obligation on the part
of the Government to vote in favor
of prohibition on account of having
THE WINGHAM ADVANCE.
introduced the referendum. The
temperance party declared there
was a strong majority in favor of
prohibition and the Government
has merely given them the oppor-
tunity of proving their claim.
"Tho majority of the officials in
the Parliament buildings will also
vote against the passage of a pro-
hibitory law."
A STARTLING CONTRAST.
(Weekly Sun.)
According to the report of the
Railway Commissioner for the State
of Michigan, the total taxes paid
by the railways of the United States
for the fiscal year 1900 was $47,-
415,430, or an average of $254.78
per mile. The taxes range from
$72.17 per mile in the State of
South Dakota. to $1,411.93 per mile
in the State of Massachusetts.
Unfortunately no return is made
either to our Dominion or Provin-
cial Governments, of the taxes paid
by Canadian roads. The Canadian
Pacific Railway, however, makes a
return to the Interstate Commerce
Commission, not only of the taxes
it pays on the roads owned or op-
erated by it in the United States,
but on the lines it owns or operates
in Canada. For the year 1899 the
taxes paid by it on Its Canadian
lines amounted to $125,147. The
total mileage of the C. P. R. in
Canada to -day in rather more than
8,000 miles; but if we place its
total mileage in 1899 at 7,000 miles,
the average tax per mile at that
time was rater less than $18. In
the same year the taxes on the
"Soo" line, which is owned and
operated by the C. P. R., and runs
west from Sault Ste. Marie to Por-
tal, on the international boundary,
a distance of 1,272 miles, were
$175,901. Thus the taxes paid on
1,272 miles of road in the North-
Western States were $50,000 more
than the taxes paid on over 7,000
miles of road in Canada.
TEACHERS' REQUESTS.
The committee appointed at the
last meeting of the Ontario Educa-
tional Association to bring certain
matters before the Education De-
partment waited on the Minister a
few days ago. The changes asked
for were embodied in the following
list, passed at the meeting of the
Association last spring :-
1. That the age limit for teach-
ers be raised from 18 to 21.
2. That the training term in
Model schools be lengthened.
3. That the graduates of the
Ontario Normal College, who are
not also graduates of a Model or a
Normal school, be not allowed to
teach in a Public school,
4. That Latin be not compul-
sory for either junior or senior lea..
ving examinations.
5. That the basis of the appor-
tionment of the Legislative grant
be changed, making it dependent
on (a) average attendance, (b)
building and equipment, (c) salary
paid, (d) qualification of the teach-
er employed.
6. That a system of teaching
the metric system be adopted,
7. That the Bible be not intro-
duced as a text -book.
8. That less time be spent on
arithmetic,
9. That less literature bo re-
quired of entrance candidates,
The Agonizing Pains of R1 eunr.atisM
Swollen, aching joints, muscles are
stiff and sore, every movement ac-
companied by pain. The most potent
remedy is Poison's Nerviline, which has
five tunes the pain -subduing power of
any other preparation. Apply the Ner-
viline copiously, rub it on well and then
bind in a hot flannel bandage. This
will cure the worst case in a short time.
Try Nerviline for Rhetan}atism,
Neuralgia, Sciatica or buinbago-it's all
right and only cost a quarter.
