THE GOOD ROADS MOVEMENT.
Moved by the same high public
spirit and the single purpose of bring-
ing the roads of Canada up to a
standard that will be a credit to the
nation, and an example to the world
at large, His Royal Highness the Duke
of Connaught, and NV. J. Kerr, hold
the two highest positions in the gift
of the Canadian Highway Association,
that of patron and president respec-
tively,
The Canadian Highway will be an
accomplished fact within the next
few years, and the outside world will
then know that in this broad Do-
minion there is a road more than
3,000 miles long over which an auto-
mobile can travel from coast to coast
in safety and with comfort. The
country that offers the wealthy
tourist the splendid roads that Canada
will have, the magnificent scenery and
exceptional opportunities of invest-
ment, will reap a large harvest from
its visitors.
This association was formed in new
Westminster, B.C„ last November,
and it was at this meeting that Mr.
Kerr, a wealthy resident of the coast
and the principal mover in the con-
vention that resulted in the formation
of the association, was elected presi-
dent. Some time later the Governor-
General of Canada, whose activity in
the cause of good roads is well known
to those interested in this work, was
approached and requested to permit
his name to be used as that of Patron,
the following resolution being for-
warded to him after a meeting of the
executive of the association :—Moved
by President W. J. Kerr, srconded by
Vice -President A. E. Dodd, "His
Royal Highness the Duke of Con-
naught, Governor-General of Canada,
having in many ways shown his in-
terest in good roads, and more parti-
cularly by his speech from the throne
at the last formal opening of parlia-
ment. be it therefore."
"Resolved, that the secretary ex -
To Port McNicoll.
When the Canadian ` Pacific Rail-
way introduce their new timetable
in June, there will be one very im-
portant change, and that will be the
running of the steamboat express
from Toronto to Port McNicoll in-
stead of Owen Sound. The distance
will be about 13 miles shorter in
reaching the steamboat terminal. The
change will mean a great loss to the
citizens of Owen Sound and build up
the terminal of Port McNicoll to one
of the most important railway centres
in Ontario.

tend to His Royal Highness the
thanks of the officers of the Canadian
Highway Association for lending his
influence to the cause of roads im-
provement, and further •"that the
secretary respectfully informs His
Royal Highness that it is the earnest
desire of the members of this associa-
tion that His Royal Highness should
consent to become Patron of the
Canadian Highway Association."
The following reply was received a
few days ago by P. W. Luce, secretary
of the Association :--
Dear Sir :—I am desired by the
Governor-General to acknowledge
receipt of your letter, and to inform
you in reply that his Royal Highness
will be pleased to become Patron of
the Canadian Highway Association as
requested by your Executive Commit-
tee. His Royal Highness is much
interested in the subject of good
roads, and wishes your association
every success.
Yours faithfully
Private Secretary.
The Duke of Connaught has long
been interested in good roads and has
shown in many ways that he is
strongly in sympathy with any move-
ment that will tend to better the
transportation facilities of this or any
other country. Travelled man as he
is, and trained in observations of
things that make for the public weal,
His Royal Highness has put to practi-
cal use the knowledge gained in Ca-
nada, England, on the continent, and
in foreign countries, and he believes
he has acted wisely in allowing his
name to become associated with the
enterprise fathered by the Canadian
Highway Association.
"Good roads are a social and econo-
mic necessity, and good roads we will
have all over Canada before I am
ready to acknowledge that the work
of the Canadian Highway Association
is finished," says President W. Kerr.
And he means every word of it.
A Simple Method.
If this item meets the eyes of any
person, who may drink impure water,
here is a simple method of sterilizing
drinking water. It entails little or no
cost, nothing but the simplest ap-
paratus, does away with the necessity
of boiling the water, and gives water
which is free of all harmful bacteria.
Take a teaspoonful of pure chloride of
lime, smoothing off the surface of
the spoon with some 114.t object, so
that too much of the chemical is not
use.:l. Dissolve this in a teacupful of
water, and add to this three more
cupfuls of water. A teaspoonful of
the resultant solution added to a two-
! gallon pail of water, and allowed to
stand for ten minutest, will give a
proportion of 4 to 5 parts of free
chlorine to a million parts of water,
sufmfctent to purify the latter from
every trace of harmful bacteria,
There is no taste or odor to this
sterilized water, and the free chlorine,
in itself 'harmless, soon disappears.
This method has been perfected and
thoroughly tested with very impure
water by Doctors Nasrnith and
Graham of the Provincial Laboratory.
A Clinton Industry.
Arrangements have been completed
whereby the Gunn -Langlois Company,
Montreal, purchase the Standard
Elevator and five acres of land from
the L. Snider Company, Clinton, to
be used in connection with their poul-
try and produce business. Gunns
have taken immediate possession, and
will put in an elevator in the large
brick building, and intends to make
Clinton an important centre for all
kinds of produce.
A Sad Condition.
Dr. Helen MeMurchy in her report
to the Government says :--"The feeble-
minded are increasing with alarming
rapidity and more rapidly than nor-
mal people. It is estimated that about
one hundred children are born of
feeble-minded women in Ontario every
year. There are not less than 2,000
idiots, imbeciles, and feeble-minded
persons in Ontario, and probably there
are 4,000. The Orillia institute can
take care of about 800 The rest are
ignored " De. MacMarch y recorn-
mends :—That a register of feeble-
minded persons, especially feeble-
minded children, should be prepared
forthwith, and that legislation should
be passed enabling the Province to
protect., care for, and control the
feeble-minded.

A REMARKABLE REMEDY.
The most a filleted people on earth
are those who suffer from rheuma-
tism and about one-fourth of our peo-
ple are afflicted with this terrible,
time racking, bone crippling disease.
So many people neglect themselves
and rheumatism follows in one form
and then another until they are an
example of the tortures of rheumatism.
Rheumo has gained the greatest repu-
tation through being a quick and
permanent cure for rheumatism in its
many forms. Rheumo is so good we
guarantee it even in chronic cases and
A. L. Hamilton stands back of our
guarantee and will refund your
money if Rheurno is not just the best
rheumatic cure known. Don't put off
getting a bottle of Rheumoto-day ; it
means your health and happiness.
Where She Had Gone.
Out in Indiana it is necessary for a
man seeking a marriage license to tell
in the application if he has been mar-
ried before, and if so what became of
his other wife or wives. One politician
out there desired to wax a trifle
poetical when he came to the question
about what became of his first wife
and he wrote :—"Gone to the grate
beyond."

Accident At Walton.
One day last week, as Peter Bar-
rows and Jno. Fulton were engaged
in hauling lumber, the former's team
took fright at a freight train from the
East and dashed on to the railway.
The train struck the wagon and in the
upset Mr. Fulton received a broken
breast bone and a bad scalp wound
while his companion who is 73 years
of age was also badly shaken up, in-
ternal injuries being feared. One of
the horses had a leg broken and had
to be killed. Mr. Fulton is upward of

The Profitable Beef.
The profitable beef animal of the
future must have size, large heart
girth and middle, giving him con-
stitution and capacity, He must also
be low set, straight in his lines, heavy
in the quarters, wide in the back and
loin and carry a good covering of
natural flesh over these parts, The
head must be short and wide between
the eyes, the neck short and shoulders
smooth on the sides and wide on top.
Width on the top of the shoulders
goes with good fleslaing properties
throughout, The hide should be soft
and pliable. These are all utility
points. We must ever keep the block
type in mind because the block is the
ultimate end of all beef cattle. ---Prof.
