-On Thursday last, R. L. Borden,
M. P., Leader in the Opposition in the
Commons, was made the recipient of a
handsome cabinet of silver upon the oc-
casion of his fiftieth birthday. Col.
Sam. Hughes presided, and tho pre-
sentation was made by Sir Mackenzie
Bowell. in behalf of the Conservative
Senators and members.
-Human consumption and bovine
consumption are identical. Such is the
finding of the British Royal Commission
contained in an interim report just is-
sued, It states that exhaustive experi-
ments prove that the disease produced
by tuberoulous material, whether of
human or bovine origin, was indentioal,
both in broad general features and with
regard to its effects upon the tissues.
The finding is important, as it shows the
possibility of infection through milk.

-A mutual insurance company for
thq protection of Ontario Agricultural
E pieties against financial loss from
rain during the fall fairs is a possibility

; Cowan, superintendent of Agricultural
Societies in the Province, has issued a
circular to all organizations of the kind,
asking for an estimato of the loss from
the tense mentioned for each year dur-
ing the laza six. lie says: -"The De-
parttnent intends to ascertain the yearly
loss, total Joss, and average loss. Then

-Mr. Borden, Leader of the Opposi-
tion in the house of Commons in an-
nouncing the Conservative policy re-
garding the proposed Transcontinental
railway, said: -
"It is for the people to decide. Let
them determine whether Canada shall
have a Government owned railway or
a railway owned Government."
Ouo of the most significant facts in con-
nection with the demand for the nation-
alization of the second transcontinental
line is that all the independent papers,
such as the Toronto News, Ottawa
Journal, and Hamilton Herald, are
strongly in favor of the policy.

-Several distinguished military cri-
tics -including Lord Wolseley -say that
Napoleon would beyond question have
won the battle of Waterloo had he not
been suffering on the second day from
a stomach trouble so awful that it made
his brain useless. Perhaps, some day,
when we learn to trace results to their
true causes, we shall find that it was
that same stomach trouble whioh over-
whelmed his once matchless judgnient
from i804 and sent him plunging to
ruin, From early manhood Napoleon
was a huge and rapid eater. He ate
mueh; he swallowed it whole; he work-
ed while he ate; he filled hie mouth and
emptied it at a gulp with a draft of
wine. Melly lessons have been drawn
from that fascinating career. Here is a
new one, a homely one -but not with-
out value. -Saturday Evening Post,
-If the Advance is not misinformed,
14 Ir, McDonald, the editor of the Tees -
water News is a Liberal. This being
the ease, the following editorial ut-
terance of the News is significant, and
to the point:--
"What is wrong with the Liberal
party at Ottawa, and what is slowly but
surely bringing it into disrepute is that
itis too much like what the Conserva-
tive party was before it lost power in
1890. And what the Liberal party will
most need in the next parliament will
not ba the ,find support of followers
through wrong doing as well as the
rlght doing, but the support and iluid-
:weo, and liolp, of men who will strive
to keep its course in the path of honor,
and who will es strenuously oppose the
carrying out of "deals" and extra-
ordinary contracts by Ow party whioh
they in the main, support ns they would
were the salve not being done by the
party they, iu tho main, oppose,"

-Regarding the dismissal of Lord
Dundonald, the best Military Com,
mander Canada ever had, the Military
Gazette says: -
Lord Dundonald has only done hie
fluty, and allowed the public to' know
that he was not responsible for what
• was going on, Mr. Fisher interfered
flagrantly on political grounds with the
militia, which belongs to us all. He
tried to deceive the House and country
by denying what be had done. Whoa
cornered and exposed, he changed his
ground and brazenly admitted that he
had done what ho had just denied, and
the real question now is not as to Lord
Dundonald, but whether Mr. Fisher's
usefulness as a servant of the people of
this country is not gone, and whether
the honest men among his colleagues
should not at once demand his resigna-
tion iu justice to themselves and to
Canada."
When Your Appetite Fails.
And it makes you dizzy to even think
of eating, you need Ferrozone the
greatest of appetizing tonics. It builds
up the whole body, the taste becomes
aware of new flavors in food you never
noticed before. A relish and after -
satisfaction in eating is another result
from Ferrozone which improves the
digestion and converts everything eaten
into nourishment for the blood, and
nerves. Just ono Ferrozone tablet after
meals, easy to take and pleasant. Try
Ferrozone. Price 50c. at druggists.
