Special Legislative Grant,
The special Legislative grant, which
is now being distributed amongst the
Public and Separate schools of O i
tario, is to be apportioned on the basis
of the grade of the teachers' certifi-
cates• and the length of their success-
ful experience.
This grant Is to be applied exclus, ve-
ar'
ly as an addition to teachers salaries
in accordance with a epeeiffed regula-
tion. In cities, for teachers 'having
over five years' experience on July 1st
of this year, a first-class certificated
teacher is to receive $20, a second class
$15, and those with less than five
years' experience in teaching are al-
lotted $15, $10 and $7.50 respectively.
In towns the scale is rather better,
presumably because the salar les are
lower and require augmenting. They
will benefit by $30, $22 50, $15, and
$11.25 respectively as outlined above.
Villages go up another, notch to $10,
$30, $20 and $15. In urban munici-
palities with over 1,500 population it
is about the same, but in other muni-
cipalities the rate is increased to $50,
$37.50, $31,25 and $25.
Tho Ontario Government's purpose
is, of `course, grlite apparent, What
has 'been accomplished of late in the
rural districts it is,now the purpose to
extend to the larger towns and cities,
thus making the lot of the teacher
brighter and giving an impeturs to
higher salaries inorder to stem the
tide westward which is now denuding
the province of many of its bright and
promising teachers. •

An Industrial Danger.

The greatest danger to the world's
industries at the present day is the
threatened scarcity of iron, .says S.
Phillip, a recent magazine writer.
The exhaustion of the world's iron ore
fields, he contends, is far nearer than is
generally realized, and he adds that
the much talked of failure of the coal
supply in the near future would be far
lees important than a dearth of iron.
The writer estimates the world's de-
mand for iron during the next ten
years at 60,000,000 tons a year, which
means from 150,000,000 to 180,000,000
tons of ore. Ore containing less than
20 per cent. of pure iron is not regard-
ed as worth smelting. It is therefore
only the ore fields yielding more than
20 per cent. of the metal that enter
the calculation. The largest of these,
that of Kirunavara-Luossavara in
Sweden, contains, aecof'ding to the
latest estimates, from 000,000,000 to
800,000,000 tons of ore, which would be
sufficient to cover the world's needs
for barely five years. '
There are of coarse numerous other
sources of supply, but of late it bas
become increasingly plain that the
probable yield of these has been great-
ly o'veresflmated.

High Tax Rate.
Palmerston's tax rate of 20 mills on
the dollar is surpassed by Orillia, the
Town Council of which place has
struck the tax rate at 31 mills, the
highest in the history of the town.
The cause of the large rate is an in-
crease in many appropriations and the
cancelling of an overdraft that bas
been kept in suspension for a few
years."

jectsf general interest, and has two
superb pa leramic views of Montreal

An Enemy Did This.
Considerable excitement has been
caused in London township by the
work of sheep -poisoners. Cecil Lang-
ford, of concession 15, found five dead
in his field on Saturday, five more
have died since and four others are
sick. On investigation it was found
that parts green had been mixed with
salt and placed in the field where the
sheep were kept. Quite recently Mr.
Langford, had a valuable colt docked
just.as'he was ready to take itto the
Fair for exhibition.
Paying Its .Way.
The. Provincial -owned railway, the
Temiskarning 47 Northern Ontario, is
now, paying . its way. Hon, A. J.
Matheson, the Provincial Treasurer,
annpunced at the close of Thursday's
Cabinet session that the net receipts
from operation for the seven months
ending July 31, were $870,608, while
the proportionate share of the interest
at four per -cent. on the expenditure of
constructing and operating the entire
system, was $350,000. The announce-
ment, while anticipated for some time,
signalizes a new era for the people's
railway.
One In Seven Called By Consumption.
A dreadful plague indeed when you
consider that in incipient stages it can
be cured. Take care of the little cold
before it becomes •a big one. When
the throat is sore and it hurts to ex-
pand your chest, rub in Nerviline and„
immediately apply one of Poison's
Nerviline Porous Plasters. Pain and
tightness are at once relieved. In-
flammation and soreness gradually
disappear and fatal illness is thus
avoided. Nerviline Plasters act as a
counter irritant over the seat of pain,
and as an exterior application in cur-
ing colds in 'the muscles, in pleurisy
and headaches they have no equal.
Keep these remedies right in your
home.
High Price For Eggs.
Fresh eggs are bringing 32 cents in
Toronto, and it is said the price will
be higher before it is lower. It is not
because the supply is running short,
for the hens are still at work, and
farmers are taking more interest in
their poultry yards; Hens have been
a paying proposition in recent years.
The demand, however is greater than
the supply, there are more people
using eggs than there are hens to lay
the eggs, Then the great Canadian
west is not producing many eggs.
The' people on the prairies'are fond of
eggs, but they do not raise much else
than wheat.
