RECIPROCITY NEVER
ABANDONED.
(Toronto Star.)
1 The protest signed by eighteen Toron-
to Liberals against the reciprocity agree-
ment stated that "in 1897 the Paella-
ment of Canada repealed the legislation
then existing relating to reciprocity,
and since eaoh repeal neither the people
of Oanada nor their Parliament have en-
trusted the (?overoment with any duty
or authority to negotiate with reaped to
any agreement on the snbjeot."
This language oonveyl the impression
that the idea of reciprocity with the
United States was abandoned by the
Liberal G•;vernment in 1897. The faot
is that the Minister of Finance in 1897
defiuitely avowed the intention of the
Government to enter into reciprocity
negotiations with the United States
Mr. Fielding said:
"Thee Ottawa platform pledged the
the Liberal party to nee all honorable
efforts to bring about better trade relit.
bone with the United States. We have
already taken the first step in that dir-
ection by commissioning two Ministers
of this Government to visit Washington
and make known the fact -it it was
necessary to make 18 known -that Can -
ads is willing to negotiate with onr Am-
erioan neighbors for a fair and reason-
able reoiprooity treaty. If our Ameri-
can friends with ne, we are willing to
meet them and treat on fair and equit-
able terms. If it shall not please them
to do that, we shall in one way regret
the faot, but shall nevertheless go on
onr way rejoicing, and find other mar-
kets to build np the prosperity of Cana-
da independent of the Amerioan people.
It is true that the negotiations came
to nothing. so far se reciprocity in trade
was ooncerned. But the Government
have never declared that they would not
negotiate for reoiprooity, nor have the
]E'arlismens or the people of Canada
ever signified their desire that no

There are, says .a writer in Hoard's
Dairyman, 1,100 co-operative and 300
private creameries in Denmark. These
manufacture over 200,0(10,000 pound! oe
butter a year, eighty per oent. of whioh
is exported to Great Britain, In sum-
mer the milk is delivered twine a day
and in winter once.
Stringent rules are laid down in re-
gard to pooling the milk on the farm
and in not mixing morning's and night's
milk. All foods whioh may impart an
objections' flsvor to the milk are for-
bidden.
The creameries are compelled by law
to pastenrizl all skim milk by heating to
180 degrees before it leaves she cream-
ery, to prevent the spread of tuberculo-
sis' through this medium The loyalty
of the Danes makes it rarely, if ever
necessary to impose the penalties. The
skim milk is converted into baoon hogs
and the baoon exported to England.
The seoret of the Danish buttermakers'
nooses lies largely in their habits of
thoroughness. They first conetrnot a
sanitary building and then keep it Olean
by daily scrubbing. This applies squal-
ly well to all the machinery and applies -
tin in the oreamery. They have milk
delivered to the creamery in almost ideal
condition, Another seoret is that they
study their burin'' thoroughly, becom-
ing very proffoient, as they expeot to
remain at tins 000upation for their life
work. Thur they turn out a product
of uniformly high quality whioh is the
chief factor in their gnooess with an ex
port trade.
Pale Amaenic rlrls
The languid, semi -invalid girl is no
longer popular. Firm flesh, rounded form
and a healthy glow to the complexion
are the results of using D r. Chase's Nerve
Food. Mrs. Goodson, Montreal, writes
"My daughter's appetite was bad and
she was pale and bloodless Since using
Dr. Chase's Nerve food there is a change
in her condition. She is stronger in ev-
ery way."

TSE CURSE OF
THE NATION IS
CONSTIPATION
°Fm(i-a-tines".,Alone
Cures This Disease
A famous scientist states that Consti-
pation,or non-actionof the bowels,causes
more deaths than alt other diseases
combined. Constipation inflames the
Kidneys, ruins digestion, is the found-
ation of Rheumatism, poisons the blood,
causes Headaches, Neuralgia, Nervous-
ness and Insomnia.
Constipation is caused by a weak or
sluggish liver. Bile, the only purgative
of the body, is secreted by the liver,
which in turn should pour out into the
intestines sufficient bile to move the
bowels. Unless the liver is active, there
cannot be enough bile to move the
bowels regularly, and Constipation is
the result.
"Fruit-a-tives", the famous fruit me-
dicine, will always cure Constipation
because it acts directly on the liver -
relieves the congestion -increases the
quantity of bile -and strengthens the
bowel muscles.

The Constructive Touch
Jnet before midnight of the old year
the Queen of Italy, making her way to
her children's rooms to kiss them good-
night, slipped on the stairs and sprained
her arm. As the King rushed to her as-
sistance, she assured him it was nothing
serious. but added, "I am sorry that
New Year's begins badly,"
"Jost the contrary," replied the King,
kindly. ' Theoldyear ends badly with
your fall; the new year begins well be-
cause yon ass not hurt "
The courtesy of kings is proverbial but
even outside of a palaoe a few things add
so much to the happiness of lite as the
traffioin kind speeches, the choice of
the appropriate phrase. The psssport
given by the French to a woinan, whioh
read, ' Eyes beautiful, dark, expressive.

Farming in Nairobi, British East Af-

a resident of thnt district recently in
New York. He has a great ranch,
where he expects to Garry on ostrich
farming on a large gaale. He said to an
interviewer.
"Since I left my farm my man has
trapped a leopard, that measured nine
feet three inches i length, and another
whioh is believed to be the biggest ever
taken. They were after our pigs and
got naught in a nage. A reoent letter
from my manager tells me that a lion
and a lioness have taken up their abode
in one corner of a 200 acre cornfield, and
that the opposite corner has been appro
printed by an old bull buffalo."

STACIE BUSINESS,
A Trying First Appearance and a$0
Unrehearsed. Funny Act.
Mr. Ly11arding, .a 'popular Eng-
lish actor, ado a most trying first,
appearance n the stage, Ifo played;
the part of a servant, and all he bact.
to say was "The duke as arrived",
and take off the stage a plate of des-
sert which was on the table.
But ilthen he gut down to the
theatre in the evening he found that
the livery he had to wear was made
for a man considerably smaller than
himself. Still, as there was no other
costume, ho had to put it on. When
he went on the stage the serviette he
carried on his arm fell to the floor,_
and ashe did not like to leave it
there he stooped to pick it up.
'Unfortunately his breeches were ee
tight that it was impossible for him
to stoop low, and ominous cracks
reminded flim that the seams of his
garments too
and per -
in his efforts mis-
hstrous.
it was a case for strategy, and so
he stooped, a little first one way and .
then the other in the vein attempt .
to accomplish his object without dam--"
age to his clothing. With each in-
effectual effort the audience roared'.
with laughter. Standing in the wings'
was the low comedian ready to come
on, who naturally saw his efforts be-
ing discounted by this unrehearsed
effect which was having so great a
success. "Leave the stage and come
off," he whispered. This, however.
was the one thing the novice felt be
could not do. He persisted in his
attempts to take up the serviette,
to the, increasing delight of the pub-.,
lie.
At last a happy idea struck him.`
He got one foot under the serviette,'
kicked it upinto the air and neatly
caught it as it fell, a feat which drew'
enthusiastic applause, redoubled as'
the actor left the stage, As he reach-
ed the comedian he was received with
a volley of abuse. The novice's sup
.of bitterness was full. Presently the
manager, however, arrived in ecstasy.
"That's one of the . funniest things
I've ever seen in my life!" he cried.
"Please do that business the rest of -
the week ! It's great I"
Captain and Parson.
"Can you box the compass, cap-,
tain?" asked a clergyman, passing up
the lakes on one of the C.P.R. boats.
"Ever since I was so high," laughed
the captain; . "learned it with my .
A B C's."
"Let's hear you," pleaded the'
clergyman.
The captain began at the north and.
ran around - north, north by east,,.
nor' -nor' -east, nor' -east by north,
north-east etc.. so quickly that the.
clergyman was deeply impressed. He
looked admiringly at the captain for:
a moment and then said, hopefully:
"Captain, can you box the compass
backward?"
"Sure," said the captain. "Start..
from wherever you like -frontwards or
backwards."
"Let's hear you," pleaded the
clergyman again, as though it were,
music.
"North, north by west, nor` -nor'-
west, nor -west by north, --" the cap-
tain ran around the compass again.
backwards with the facility he had
traveled the other way.
"And now," said he, when finished,
"you are a minister. Can you recite
the Ten Commandments?"
"Yes," acknowledged the clergy-
man, smiling, "I can."
"Well, we'll see who's best up in his
profession," declared the captain.
"Let's hear yon recite the Ten. Com-
mandments backwards."

Drum Tap Messages.
Writing from German . Africa, s
European tourist • says; "We found
here in the dense forest, among people
who know nothing of modern scientific
discoveries, a good and practical wire-
less telephone. The natives have for
purposes of ceremony, - peaceful and
warlike, drums of various dimensions,
made of wood, and these, when beat-
en, emit sounds of about an octave in
range. Aside from the ceremonies, the
drums are used also as means of
communication, and the manner of
striking, the number of strokes, the
pauses, etc., make up words and sen-
tences which are readily understood
for miles around. We had proof of
it one day. Our caravan was ready
to startwhen our head servant. stop-
ped suddenly in his work, listened in-
tently and than gave utunistetltabie'
signs of pleasure. We learned later
that the indistinct sounds conveyed to
flim the news that a boy had been
born to his 'brother in Ia neighboring
village."
The Palindrome.
A palindrome is a line or phrase
that reads the same backward as *-
ward. The Latin language IS , 8011. of
such linguistic freaks. The - English
has but few. Otte, at least, is inimit-
able. It represents our first parent
politely introducing himself to Elie
Ula these words: "Madam, I'm
Adam."
From the Latin we have, "Roma
tilai subito motibus ibit amor" (Rome,
love will come to you suddenly, with:
violence).
