—Industrial accidents occurring to
351 workpeople in Canada during the
month of Julys, 1000, were reported to
the Department of Labor. Of these
100 were fatal and 251 resulted in
serious injuries.
**
•
—According to Dunn's Review, Ca-
nadian failures clueing the second
quarter of 1000 totalled 245 in number,
with liabilities of $2,295,355, compared
with 270 failures for $1,611,066 liabili-
ties in the corresponding quarter of
1905.
—It is estimated that up to the be-
ginning of July, 12,000 male immi-
grants had been placed on Ontario
farms during the present season. Of
these about 5,000 were placed by the
immigration department of the On-
tario Government.
**
---The total imports entered for con-
sumption during June, 1006, were val-
ued at $32,920,981, compared with
$28,030,808 in June, 1905, For the fis-
cal year ending June 30, MK the total
itnports were $290,342,408, compared
with $201,911,485 in the preceding
year. Total domestic exports during
June, 1900, were $27,2t9,884, compared
with $24,756,822 in June, 1905. For
the fiscal year ended June 30, 1900, the
total domestic exports were $235,483,-
956, compared with $190,854,940 in 1905.
In addition, foreign goods were ex-
ported to the value of $21,102,674, corn -
pared with $12,401,926 in the preced-
ing year, -
—The value of the products of the
farm exported from Canada for the
year ending June 30th last was a little
over $120,000,000. That was a remark-
ably good showing. But about two-
thirds of this sum was required to
meet the outgo of the Dominion Gov-
ernment for the same time.
**
—By the death of Mr. Bland seven
seats are now vacant in the Federal
House. They are—North Renfrew,
St. Mary's (Montreal), East Elgin,
Quebec County, Shelburne and Queen's
(W. S. Fieldiug's riding), Gaspe (Que-
bec). North Renfrew and. North Bruce
vacancies were caused by deaths, and
four by appointments, and Fielding
was unseated.
* *
«
—The unseating of Mr. Fielding,
Minister of Finance in the Laurier
Cabinet, is a curious example of the
working of our election laws. A mem-
her sits in the douse of Commons for
over two years, is a Minister of the
Crown, administers an important de-
partment, and takes the Premier's
place when Sir Wilfrid is absent, and
then finds that he has no right to sit
in the House at all.
* *
—During the month of February,
there were issued 523 patents. Of
these, 45 related to agriculture, 31 to
fishing and hunting, 5 to lumbering
and 121 to mining. There were 11 pa-
tents concerning railway construction,
23 concerning building and 100 relat-
ing to the metal trades. There were
25 electrical inventions, 15 relating to
woodworking and kindred industries,
11 to printing, 4 to textile and 33 to
clothing trades. There were 18 pa-
tents relating to the preparation of
food, and 1 to the Ieather trades.
There were 21 relating to the railway
service, and 56 to other means of trans-
port. The remaining inventions con-
cerned various miscellaneous.
*
—Of a total of 1,729 homestead en-
tries made in June, in the Northwest,
by persons coming from the United
States to Canada, 516 were. from North
Dakota, 411 from Minnesota, 107 from
Iowa, 102 from Illinois, 80 from the
State of Washington, 66 from Wiscon-
sin, 63 from South Dakota, 59 from
Michigan. 39 from Nebraska, 33 frau
Indiana, 32 from Montana and 25 each
from New York and Ohio.
* *
—Immigration work of the Salva-
tion Army for the present year was
practically concluded during July, the
total number of immigrants brought
to Canada this year being upwards of
12,000. The projected operations of
the Army for the season of 1907 are
said to include the bringing out of
25,000 British emigrants to Canada.
It is also stated that the Church Ariny
expected to send out 20,000 emigrants
in 1007.

mentioned (subject only to a propor-
tionate reduction in case the whole
year's salary does not come due) that
is to say;

least $200,000 ;
(h) $150 where such assessed value is
at least $150,000 but less than $200,-
000 ;
le) $100 where such assessed value

000 ;
(d) $50 where such assessed value is
at least $50,000 but less than $100,-
000;
100;000;
(e) $25 where such assessed value is
at least $30,000 hut less than $50,000.
And $100 to every assistant teacher,
whatever such assessed value is.
(0) The public school inspector shall
have power to, and shall, suspend the
certificate of any teacher in a rural
school who agrees to accept a salary
of less amount than is herein provided
for, or who by rebate, deduction,
donation, or other subterfuge accepts
a less amount in settlement of his or
her claim for salary. Tho inspector
shall forthwith report such suspension
to the Minister of Education, and the
suspension shall be continued or dealt
with as the Minister deems ex-
pedient.
(7) In the case of a union school sec-
tion

ships, the sums mentioned in subsec-
tion 2 of this section shall be paid by

this Act.
•
—The gross earnings of the C. P. R.
for the last fiscal year were over sixty-
one and a half million dollars, nearly
one-third snore than for three years
before. The net earnings were almost
twenty-three millions, an increase of
some seven million dollars as compared
with 1903. So great were the earnings
that the company was,able, after pay-
ing all operating expenses and interest
on bonded debt, as well as half -yearly
dividends of two per cent. on prefer-
red and three por cent. on common
stock, to lay aside a surplus of over
eight and a quarter million dollars.
When it is remembered that much of
the stock of the Canadian Pacific was
obtained by its present holders at
about twenty-five to fifty per cent. of
its face value, it will be readily seen
what a good thing the company has.
—Hon. J. P. Whitney, Premier of
Ontario, speaking at Bath, in England,
recently, gave two reasons why he
supported the Salvation Army, both
in his individual and representative
position. First, he believed in the
good influences of the Army; second,
because in its emigration work, in-
stead of dumping then down in docks,
the Army saw them straight into situ-
ations. The Artny had a smaller per-
centage of failures than any other or-
ganization engaged in the work. This
being the truth, it was right the truth
should .be told.

—In 1870 the people of the 'United
States paid $118,781,000 in interest on
their public debt In 1895 the annual
SCHOOL LAW CHANGES.
There has been some misunderstand-
ing as to the changes in the School
Law. The following are the atneuded
clauses as they now stand, and are
thus given by Mr. Irwin, Inspector of
Schools for Perth county
70.--(1.) The municipal council of
every organized county shall levy and
collect by an equal rate upon the tax-
able property of the whole county (not
included in urban municipalities or an-
nexed to any urban municipalities for
school purposes) according to the
equalized assessments of the munici-
palities, in the manner provided by
this Act and The Municipal and .As-
sessment Acts, a sum which shall be
at least the equivalent of all special
grants made by the Legislative As-
sembly to the rural schools of the
county, and such suin shall be payable
to the trustees of the respective
schools receiving such legislative
grants in the same proportion as the
said special grants are apportioned.
(2) Where the assessed value of all
the taxable properly of the public
school supporters in any township of
an organized county is at least equal
to an average assessment of $30,000
for each public school section therein,
the municipal council of such town-
ship shall levy and collect by assess-
ment upon the taxable property of the
public school supporters of the whole
township in the manner provided by
this Act and The Municipal and As-
sessment Acts, the sum of $300 at least
for every public school where a teacher
or principal teacher is engaged for a
whole year exclusive of vacations, and
a proportionate amount of such sum
of $300 at least, where a teacher or
principal teacher is engaged for six
months or longer ; and the additional
sum of at least $200 for an assistant
teacher engaged for a whole year ex-
elusive of vacations, and a proportion-
ate amount of such sutn of $200 at
least, where an assistant teacher is en-
gaged for six months or longer.
(3) Where such assessed value is
Less than an average assessment of
$30,000 for each public school section
in any township, the municipal council
of suck township shall levy and collect
as aforesaid the sum of $150 at least
for every public school where a. teach-
er or principal teacher is engaged for
a whole year exclusive of vacations,
interest charge was $21,176,000. In 1j and a proportionate amount of said
i
(10) All motteys hereby required to
be levied and collected and applied to
the salaries of teachers shall be paid
to the treasurers of the respective
public school boards from time: to
time as may be required by the school
trustees.

Are You Subject To Stiffness ?
Perhaps it is in the neck or should-
ers. First thing is a good rub with
Nerviline. No more speedy remedy
can be adopted. When applied to the
muscles Nerviliue gives them flexibili-
ty and vigor ; inflammation, soreness
and stiffness disappear. "Whether in
the chest or throat nothing can sur-
pass Nerviline" writes 0. 13. Denton,
Lumber Merchant at Oak Bay, N. 13.
"Rubbed on at night, trouble is *one
by morning. I have proved Nerviline
a great medicine." Everyone says
the same, and Nerviline always makes
good, 25c bottles sold everywhere.
