EDITORIAL NOTES.
The annual meeting of the Ontario
Reform Association will be held in Tor-
onto, on. Tuesday, October 31st. It is
expected that upwards of 200 delegates
from different parts of Ontario will be
in attendance.
With the close of the financial year,
still two weeks away, succession duties
paid to the Provincial Treasurer have
already passed the hoped-for million
mark. The total amount received up to
Friday was $1,027,031, which means
that over $75,000 has been paid in since
the first of the month. This is one of
the items of Liberal legislation that the
Conservatives denounced when they
were in opposition.
There is no reason, having to do with
the public interest for hurrying on the
elections now. The big surplus of the
big Borden campaign fund could have
been cached somewhere until next year.
The people who contributed it would
not have had the nerve to ask for its
return. By waiting until next year a
session could have been held and a re-
distribution of the constituencies made
following upon the census, and New
Ontario given the representation to
which it is entitled by the growth of
'Young and old have

At the close of the cabinet meeting,
'Thursday afternoon it was announced
by the Prime Minister that Dr, T. S.
Sproule, M. P. for East Grey, would be
the Government candidate for speaker
of the .Huse, While not officially an-
nounced it is generally understood that
Mr. P. E. Biondin, M. P. for Cham-
plain, will be deputy speaker, and that
Senator Landry will be speaker of the
Senate. Dr. Sproule has been a mem-
ber of the House continuously since 1578,.

is the apple king of Onrario, and is at
present preparing to fill a contract for
eighty thousand barrelg. His business
has brought him into touch with the
people all over the riding. He is much
respected by his townsmen, and has
held all the municipal offices in the gift
of the people. At a largely -attended
convention held at Formosa on Thurs-
day, Dr. Clapp was chosen as standard-
bearer in the Conservative interest.
He stood for one term in the local
House, and was defeated by R. E.
Truax three years ago.
THE CENSUS FIGURES.
The figures of the census taken in
June have been handed out, and the.
result is a disappointment to those who
expected the population of Canada to
reach eight millions. The actual total
is 7,081,869. The figures are not quite
complete, and when the full returns
are received they will make the total
about 7,100,000. The increase over 1901
is about 1,800, 000. While not so large as
was expected, this increase is far and
away the largest in any decade since
confederation. From 1891 to 1901, the
gain was 536,427. By Provinces the
figures are as follows:
1911 1901
Alberta 372,919 73,022
British Columbia 362,768* 178,867
Manitoba _.. 454,691* 255,211

The coming redistribution of seats in
the House of Commons will give the
West largely increased representation.
The new unit of representation will be,
on the basis of the population of Que-
bec, 30,780. On this basis Nova Scotia
will lose two members, New Brunswick
two, Prince Edward Island one and On-
tario four. Manitoba, Saskatchewan,
Alberta and British Columbia will each
gain five, a total gain of twenty mem-
bers for the Provinces west of Ontario.
The total membership of the House
will be 232 as compared with 221 at
at present.

The Duke of Sutherland, who was in
Toronto this week, explained his plan
for settling Scotch farmers on lands
which he has purchased in the vicinity
of Edmonton. The Duke says he does
not intend to create a Canadian estate,
but that his plan contemplates simply
the settlement of some of his Scotch
tenants on lands which he has purchas-
ed in the West. Ile will give the ten
auto time to pay for the same.

The Cause of Nearly All the E>r-
erycay Ailments of Life,
Teo little b1ood-that is what
makes
men and women. look pale and sallow
and feel languid. That is what makes
them drag' along, alwaystired, never
real hungry, unable to digest their
food, breathless and palpitating at the
heart after slight exertion, so that it is
wearisome even to go upstairs, Doc-
tors tell them that they are "anaemic"
the plain English being too little blood.
If your face is pale and sallow, if your
gum are pale instead of scarlet;. if you
are easily tired and frequently despon-
dent; if you do not relish your meals,
and small matters irritate you, it is a
sign that your blood is thin and watery
and that you are on the verge of a com-
plete breakdown.
More weak, anaemic people have
been made strong, energetic and cheer-
ful by taking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
than by any other means. They actu-
ally make new blood, which reaches
every part of the body, braces the
nerves and brings new health and new
strength. The case of Miss Nellie
Welch, Essex, Ont., is proof of the
great curative powers of Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills. Miss Welch says: "A few
years ago I was going into what my
friends believed to be a hopeless
decline. I was subject to severe head-
aches, had no appetite,pale and
grew distressingly wek. I tried sev-
eral doctors, some of w om we counted
the best in this part of the country, but
they failed to het e.. At last, my
heart grew so wea nd I was so nerv-
ous and thin that I ad to take to my
bed and the doctor held out but little
hope for my recovery, Like others I
had often read of Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills, and though they opposed my tak-
ing them I determined to give them a
trial, as I felt I might as well• be dead
as to be living in the misery I was in.
In a month after beginning to take the
pills I was up and around again, and
steadily growing stronger until I was
again enjoying the blessing of perfect
health. Several years have since elaps-
ed and my health has been the very
best, It is therefore, with great grati-
tude that I write you in the hope that
my experience may be of benefit to
some other sufferer."

Do You Appreciate Them?
O,,r home merchant takes the farm-
er's produce. With them he finds a
ready market for his butter and eggs,
his potatoes and apples. These depart-
ment stores take only his money. Our
home merchants, not for profit, but for
accommodation and to assist the farm-
ers, buy his produce. They sell it in
majority of cases for less than they
pay for it and often handle it at a loss,
yet some farmers do not appreciate
this very same money and send it to a
department store when they could get
better bargains right at home.

than last week. With 'a larger offering
