EDITORIAL NOTES.
Sir James Whitney is responsible for
the make-up of the Ontario end of the
Borden Cabinet, and for the whole
make-up of the Ontario Railway and
Municipal Board, and nobody wishes to
separate Sir James from the glories of
his authorship of two historic choices.
-Toronto Telegram.
There are eight adherents of the
Cburch of England in the new Cabinet,
five Methodists, four Roman Catholics,
and one Baptist. The Church of Eng-
land men are Hon. Messrs. Borden,
Hazen, Perlay, Rogers, Roche, Burrell,
White and Lougheed. The Methodists
are Hon. Messrs. Cochrane, Crothers,
Kemp, Hughes and Reid. The Roman
Catholics are Messrs Monk, Pelletier,
Nantel and Doherty, while Mr. Fester
is the Baptist.
The financial and corporate interests
and the Nationalists are, as might be
expected, dominant in the new Cabinet.
There are. at Ieast four millionaires,
if Mr. Rogers can be included in that
category. There would have been rive
if Mr Forget had accepted Premier
Borden's invitation. Nearly all the
Ministers are successful and wealthy
business or professional men. There
are eight lawyers. There is no real
representative of the farmer or of the
average Consumer or toiler,
The Toronto News has made the ac-
cusation that the Toronto Globe is in
debt to the Government to the extent
of $25,000 for postage on papers during
election time. The Globe has com-
pletely answered the spiteful attack by
pointing out, that in common with most
of the other Toronto papers, it at first
paid extra postage, and was later re-
funded the money when all the papers
claimed that the regular rates should
apply. The Globe agreed to the refund
on• condition that the other papers
should be given the same treatment.

THE FARMIA NOT IN IT,
The Toronto News claims that the
recent census will show Toronto city
entitled, on the new unit of represen-
tation, to twelve or fourteen seats at
Qttawa. It is said further that 'Peron.
to Conservatives will demand their
pound of flesh, If they are given all
they ask, rural Ontario ;;will have to
surrender the seats to be given to the
city, for the Province as a whole will
not likely be entitled to any greater
number than at present. It begins to
look as if the Ontario farmer will be
due to have some serious reflections
before he feels the last effect of the
vote he cast on Sept. 21, 1911.-Simcoe
Reformer.
He certainly will'. If the large cen-
tres are to be given the percentage of
representation they lay claim to, the
rural representation in these eastern
provinces will become a negligible,
quantity. What with the large centres
and the growing provincial cities and
towns in almost all the constituencies
that were formerly classed as rural
exercising the larger influence, fanners'
representatives will become as scarce
as hen's teeth. Indeed, without wait-
ing for a new redistribution, the num-
ber of representatives in the new Par-
liament associated with agriculture is
so small as to 'have little weight in
directing legislation. The capitalist,
and his ally the lawyer, and the manu-
facturer, are in the ascendant.
Deafness Cannot be Cured.
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies,
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in-
flamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be tak-
en out and this tube restored to its nor-
mal condition, hearing will be destroy-
ed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by Catarrh, which is nothing
but an inflamed condition of the muc-
ous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.

AMERICAN VIEWPOINT.
(Philadelphia Bulletin.)
What will the coming Conservative
Administration in Canada do with the
victory won by its party over the reci-
procity idea? There are those who
think that Canada, like a passionate
child, now that she has got her way,
will in the not very distant future turn
back to the very thing that she has
just rejected. In other words, now
that she has spitefully manifested her
freedom from "Yankee influence," she
will, in calmer moments, recognize
what might have been her gain if she
had accepted the compact proffered
her by Laurier and Taft.
For the dispassionate American ob-
server, however, there is no little cause
for humiliation in the defeat of reci-
procity in Canada. It would, perhaps,
not have occurred if our people were
less given to brag and bluster. Speak-
er Clark, in his indiscreet and wholly
unbecoming utterance on reciprocity
and annexation, gave a fair illustration
of the frame of mind and the silly habit
of speech of thousands of his country-
men in dealing with the subject.
The commonest sense of courtesy
should prevent Americans and Ameri-
can newspapers from so frequently
offering insult to our northern neighbor,
as it is their custom to do, for belittling
of Canada marks a kind of mind that
is itself little. We have no shadow of
authority of any kind over Canada, not
even the moral authority of an elder
sister, that could justify any airs of
superiority or any arrogance of speech
or action. It is not strange that the
worthy Canadians who are aware of
the attitude of a large part of the
American public towards themselves
should cherish a chronic resentment
which sometimes interferes with their
own best political and commercial in-
terests.

NO CAUSE FOR SURPRISE.
"Hogs have gone down, but bacon
stays up," says the London Advertiser.
Why not? It is in these ways that
our system of popular governmentil-
lustrates its operations.
The farmers of Ontario had a perfect
right to vote for cheap hogs if they
wanted to, and city people had a per-
fect right to vote for dear bacon if they
thought it ought to be made as expen-
sive as possible.
Nobody need be surprised if those
who buy hogs bow to the popular ver -
diet, and if those who sell bacon do the
same thing. One of the sure things
about the popular form of government
is that the people can always get what
they want if they want and vote for
results like these.

Wo.dlot Inspection by Government.
Increasing difficulty is being found in
obtaining an adequate supply of hard-
wood lumber for the industries of Can-
ada. The hardwood tracts of the east-
ern provinces for a long time have not
been able to meet the demand, and in
1910, 60 per cent of the hardwood used
in Canada was imported from the Una
ited States. The United States, al-
though with a much larger supply of
hardwood on hand is also seeing that
the annual consumption far exceeds
the annual growth and that the virgin
supply is being rapidly 'reduced. By
praetieal demonstration it has been
proven, that waste land if planted in
young hardwoods, will prove a profit-
able investment at the end of twenty-
five years or more, and will improve
the productiveness of the surrounding
farm land. In the eastern provinces
of Canada and in Ontario, particularly,
are large tracts of such land, covered
at present with an unprofitable tree
growth, which through being sandy,
rocky or lowlying, cannot be treated
es agricultural lands. The Forestry
Branch of the,Department of the In-
terior is taking a practical interest in
the,farmers' woodlots of Ontario, in an
effort to make otherwise useless land
supply hardwood lumber to an eager
market, with profitable returns to the
wood )ot'owner. Parties interested in
this matter should correspond with the
Department at Ottawa, which is al-
ready giving practical assistance on
important tracts. Foresters will be
supplied by the Department to look
over tracts of timbered land, estimate
the quantity of timber, advise as to
what species to encourage or plant ac-
cerding to the locality and general con-
ditions, and suggest a general working
plan. Such scientific knowledge, the
the result of former investigations,
will be of great benefit to private own-
ers and should be sought after at once.
GROWLING AT THEIR LEADER.
(London Advertiser.)
The Montreal Star and the Toronto
Telegram savagely rebuke Mr. Bor-
den's want of moral courage in the
choice of his associates,
"Sinister forces have been granted
admission to the Privy Council chamber
ata time when they might easily have
been rightly excluded," says the Stan
This is significant Ianguage, coming
from the most aggressive journalistic
opponent of reciprocity in the late elec-
tions.
The Telegram is more outspoken and
personal. It advises Conservatives to
try to defeat Mr, White and Mr. Coch•
rane when they appear for re-etection
as cabinet ministers. Mr, White it
piltories as the nominee of corporation -
ism, but Mr. Cochrane is the chief tar-
get of its wrath. It cello .lin a dismal
failure as Ontario Minister of Lands,
having done nothing to open up New
Ontario to settlement. It accuses him
of corporation sympathies, and of hav-
ing brought Bourassa into Ontario.
Will the Telegram have the courage
of its convictions by opposing Mr.
White if he is offered a seat in Conser-
vative Toronto? It will not require
vouch backbone to fight him at long
distance, if, as reported, he will seek a
constituency elsewhere.
Having lined up with the Big Inter-
ests in fighting a measure of relief for
farmers and consumers, the Star and
the Telegram are not too consistent in
their protests against corporation do-
mination in the Borden Government.
They are getting what they asked the
electors to vote for.

program for the seventh month was,
for the first day blowing of trumpet$,
on the tenth day the atonement, oa
the fifteenth day the feast of taber-
nacles, and these they seem to have
carefully observed,. Note the one ac-
cord, for they gathered together as
one man to Jerusalem (111, 1), This
Unity of heart must be very pleasing to
the Lora. Compare the seven ,"one ac-
cords" of Acts 1, 14; it 1, 40; iv, 24; v, b,
12; viii. 6; xv, 25, all fot God, and the
four "one accords" of the devil, Acts'
1.11, 57; xli, 20; evil!, 12; xix, 28.
Tbeir first essential to the worship,
of the Lord was an altar for Beevifice
(iii. 2). See the altars of Noah end
Abram (Gen. viii, 20; ail, 7, 8; alit, 4),
but observe that he had no altar in
Egypt Mark the threefold phrase
"Unto the Lord" .(iii, 3, 5, 6), and 1f
you can find time to mark this and
"Before the Lord" in the book of Le-
viticus, where they are ,found many

tian life. Tjiere Is a saying in 111, 4,.
worthy of close attention, "As the
duty of every day required," or as in
the margin, "The matter of the day In.
its day." It is found just seven times
pertaining to the things of God, the
other six being hi Ex, XVI, 4; 1 1tan e r

devil's tyranny in )Tux. v, 13. We are
reminded of "As 'thy days so shall thy'
streugth be" and "Give us this day our
daily bread."
The expression "the house or temple
of the Lord" (iii, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12) re-,
minds us of the great business in'
which we now are or should be en-
gaged, the building of the church,
which` is His body (Eph. 1, 22, 23; n,;
19-22), "We owu house, whose bonne
are we" (Flab. Ili. 6):` t
The house of our lesson was a literal.
building of wood and stone at Jerusa-
lem. The building on which we are-
engaged is one of which the living
stones are men and women and boys
and girls, according to I Pet. 11, 5, gr'. -
and every soul saved in any part of
the world is another stone for the
building. There were much praise and
thanksgiving at the laying of the foun-
dation of this temple (111. 10, 11). We
should be- always full of praise be-:
cause of our foundation, which has
been laid strong and sure forever
Qsa. xxviii, 16; 1 Cor. hi, 11), provided
we are on that foundation by faith In'
Christ Jesus. All else will be swept
away. As we go on with the build-
ing day by day some are weeping be- ,.
cause of many dlscouragementg, while
some shout for joy (111, 12, 13).
Some took backward and tell us'
of better things in the past. Some
look around and are discouraged bee
cause of the worldliness and unbelief
which prevail. The only way to look
is upward tq Him of whom it is writ
ten. "He shall not fail nor be dis-
couraged (isa, xlii, 4). Certain people
who were adversaries of Judah. and
Benjamin wanted to. help with this
building, but the governor and the
high priest said to them, "Ye have
nothing to do with us to build an
house unto our God." So their *assist-
ance was refused, and rightly too.'
Then they did nil they could to binder
the work, and used force and power.
to cause it to cease, and succeeded,, se
that for many years there was nor
progress made with the building (IV,
1-5, 23, 24).
In the building of the Chureh, the
body of Christ, those who profess to
be interested act so differently from
Zerubbabel and Joshua, inasmuch as
they seek help of every kind from all
Sorts of people, never Considering
whether they are the Lord's or, not.
As a rule, no questions are asked as
o Whether saved or unsaved if only
oney can be obtatiked or help in the
hole, or whatever is needed. Chis is
11 wrong, and the tvay of our lesson
the only right way, for light cannot
