NOTES AND COMMENTS When times are .as good as they are *tow there is no excuse for tramps. he men wile are such now are not yen to it by necessity, but are either axy to work or eritninale. The On- tario Government has again sent out a circular to police magistrates urging severity on this class. The sentencing of thele to six months or a year in the Central prison in the past has had a good effect, but there seems to have been re• laxation recently in some places, The eircnlar will probably stir the magis- trates up and ba the means of ridding the Province of a number of people who are not only a nuisance, but a dauger. xhe man who wants to eliminate the Vow in tate process of butter -making; is. to have no foothold in Canada. This was decided iu the House of Commons recently, when Hon. Siduey Fisher, Minister of Agriculture, asked the House to prhibit the making or selling of all butter substitutes, such as adulterated or process butter, oleomargarine, butter- iue, etc. The resohttiou carried wrath - Piously, and will be made the basis of a bill to be introduced by Hou. Mr, Fisher. The measure is of great importance to the dairyingindustry in Canada. The wonderful expansion of the butter ex- port trade bas been due to the superior- ity of the Canadian article, and it is highly important that the high standards already set up be preserved. Au English school boy, writing iu an examination on the advantage of emi- grating to Canada, said: "Wbeu a man • has lost his character he should go to Canada, where he will not want one." • This is what we get by dropping the fine old Euglish custom of demanding certi- ficates of character. It reminds one of the old story about the Irish girl, who had such a document, which, unfortu- nately, blew out of her hand one clay iu mid-oceau. A passenger -Irish, no doubt -wrote soniethiug to serve as a substitute, and the girl sought a position as housemaid in Montreal, showing the following recommendation: "Norah O'Brien.had an excellent character when she left Ireland, but she lost it coming across the sea." -Toronto Star. ON ACCOUNT O1; HEADACHES AND PAINS IN THE SIDE. The :lad Condition of a Bright Little GIrl L ntii Dr. Williams' rink Yips Vaino to tier Rescue. Speculative Craze. The Monetary Times, in an article on the Speculative Craze, says that the evil glamor of rapid profits, to be obtained by operating in stocks, has infected the co nmunity t r an extent which is but gradually becoming known. Several weeks ago we were informed by a life as- sarauce manager that he had noticed a remarkable number lately of applications to his company from policy -holders to borrow ou the security of their policies. He did not understand it at the time. After the Ames failure the agent of an- other ]arge life company observed the same thing. And this week the general manager of a third life company con- firms the experience of the other two. What is the inference from this? Clear - 1y that Tom, Dick and Harry, young and middle-aged, have been speculating on the stock exdiange aud needed more mouey to make np their margins. How dismal the feeling of a mother who, up- on the death of her husband in 1904, ex- peets $2,500 from a life company to help her in the battle with the world and finds that she has only 810001 The re- mainder had been borrowed by her hus- band on the security of this policy. He had cheated his widow aud family - with the best intentions in the world, no doubt -to speculate in stacks, and the burden of his error falls upon his family. Mr. Brodrick stated in the Commons that more than 14,000 Imperial Yeoman- ry out of a total of 17,243 appealed against their captains assessments of Vat money was clue to them. In near- ly every case their complaint was justi- fied, and the blame for the delay in the final settlement rested with the captains. Nervousness and Indigestion Ilizztneas, and stck•beadaehe cured, and health built np by Ur. Chases Nerve Food. CAPT. Wittw,M IIENNEBERV, 85 Lockman St., Halifax, N.S., states: -"Before I began using Dr. Chase's Nerve Food I was troubled a great deal,_with dizziness, nervousness and s`Ikk headache, which seemed to be caused from indigestion. Since using this preparation for a time all these distressing symptoms have disappeared and 1 con- sider that 1 am catitely cured. T never used any medicine that seemed to build me apse thorough- ly, and to -day 1 am in better health than 1 have been for seeeral years."

W. Many youug girls, seemingly in the best of health, suddenly grow listless and lose strength. The color leaves their cheeks; they become thin, have little or no appetite, and suffer from headaches aud other bodily paiu. Sneh was the case of Bessie, youngest daughter of Mr. Chas. Cobleigh, Eaton Corner, Que. Speaking of his daughter's illness and subsequent cure, Mr. Cobleigh says: - "Up to the age of eleven, Bessie had al- ways enjoyed the best of health aud took great pleasure in out-of-door play. Sud- denly, however, she seemed to lose her energy ; her appetite failed her; she grew thiu and pale; slept badly at night, aud complained of distressing headaches in the mrorning. We thought that rest would be beneficial to her, and so kept her from school, but instead of regain- ing her strength, she grew weaker and weaker. To make matters worse, she be- gan to suffer from pains in the side, which was. almost past endurance. At this stage we decided to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. After a couple of weeks, the good effect of this medicine was decided- ly: apparent. Bessie became more cheer. fill, her step quicker, her eyes were brighter and she seemed more like her former self. We continued giving her the pills for several weeks longer, until we felt she had fully recovered her health aud strength. I honestly believe had it not been for Dr. 'Williams' Pink Pills, our daughter would not have re- covered her health and strength, aud I shall always have a good word to say for this medicine." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills will cure all troubles that arise from poverty' of the blood or weak nerves. Among such trou- bles may be classed anaemia, headache, neuralgia, erysipelas, rheumatism, heart ailments, dyspepsia, partial paralysis, St. Vitus dance, and the ailments that ren- der miserable the lives of so many wo- men.

THE OLD GERRYMANDER. twenty more members for 4,000 more votes. Such was, the effect of the gerrymander, and, the sample method given above shows how it was arrauged to produce this effect." Iu the 13111 now before the Dominion. House county boundaries are rigidly adhered to. How the County of Huron was Cut and Carved by the Conser- vatives in 1882. In view of the fact that a new redis- tribution of the counties is being made, in which the Conservatives this time have a voice as well as the Liberals, the following article from an old copy of the Globe, showing how the county of Huron was divided. in 1882, may be of interest :- "The story of the gerrymander of 1882 may be old, but none the less it shows the disadvantages under which the Liberals fought. The following sample, which shows the principle ap- plied in framing the bill, is taken from a speech by Dr. Macdonald, M. P., of Wingham, and the facts have never been disputed. The fact that Liberals carried all three does not alter the motive of the framers of the bill. The County of Huron in 1878 gave about 800 Liberal majority. The first draft of the bill of 1882 divid- ed the county in South Huron, Centre Huron and North Huron. The county then had a population of 67,000, and could be divided into three constituencies giving a little over 22,000 to each, which was the unit of representation. After the bill was introduced, a deputation of Conservatives from Huron came to Ottawa. The very next day Sir John Macdonald moved that another division of Huron should be made. Three municipalities were taken from Huron, two put into North Middlesex and one into South Perth. And three other divisions of Huron were made. Instead of a North, Centre and South division it was East, West and South. Accord- ing to the vote of 1878, this gave East Huron a Conservative majority of 93, West Huron a Conservative majority of 115, and hived in Sonth Huron a Liberal majority of 1000. At the same time the two municipalities given to North Middlesex had in 1878 given a Con- servative majority of 115 and were intended to strengthen Mr. Coughlin, who had a bare majority of 9 in 1878. Usborzie township which gave 60 Con- se1 native majority; was put in South Perth, and from that riding was taken South Easthope, which had given a Liberal majority of 193. This was placed in North Oxford, to increase the Liberal majority of 800 'already there. Then North Easthope, which gave a I Liberal majority of 309, was also added 1 to North Oxford, to relieve North Perth, from which was also taken Wallace, 1 with a Conservative majority of 60. This was given to North Wellington in the hope of defeating Mr. McMullen. All this was done to "equalize the repre- sentation," the Tories said. But at •lite same time they formed fourteen ridings in which the unit of representation was. 20,345, and fourteen others in which the unit watt 15,625. In 1882 lino Liberal member represented 8,615 votes and cue Conservative 2,546; in 1887, the Liberal represented 4,638 'votes, the Conservative 8,365, In 1891: Metal, 5,550; Conetrvative, 3,150; while in this election the total vote wan: Liberal, 182,000, with 86 members, and Canner- vative, 186,000, with 56 members, or HIGH COURT NON -JURY SITTINGS.

The father of plaintiff died in estate and arrangements were being made for a setttlement of the estate, when, on on requert of Carson, she went to live at his house, being treated as his daugh- ter, and abandoning all claim to share in her father's estate. Carson died in January last and in his will left nothing to plaintiff. The action was entered to recoyer from the executors of the estate the value of services she had rendered plaintiff. Judgment entered for $700. Dudley Holmes for plaintiff; E. L. Dickinson for defendant. A Woman's Reason. The laugh at the lack of logic in woman has been echoing down the ages, and will doubtless be heard for yet an eon or two. But what often seems her weakness in argument ie really her strength in con- trivance or iu imagination. She refuses to crawl along the beaton path of syllog- ism. when she may fly over the fences and arrive at a mountain top whole a man is getting his breath, Still, it must be acknowledged that sweet woman is sometimes unconsciously humorous when she is face to face with a militant argument. Said Augustus to his young wife: "My dear, do you kxrow that if there were IBA one potato left in the world it would be of more importance to preserve that po- tato than to save the cities of New York and London from destruciion by fire?" "Why, Augustus, what do yon mean? I never heard such nonsense!" "Na, Amelia, that is the simple truth, The loss of a great city could be met and forgotten in a lifetime; but the potato is essential to the woll being of a large number of the human raga. If the last one were gone the race would suffer for generations." Now Augustus, think what we should lose if New York were burnt up to.day 1 Bat, of course, if that potato were lost people would skirmish round and find another potato somewhere!" So great is the ingenuity of the modern woman that one is inclined to believe that Amelia was right, and that some- body-preeumably a woman --would "skirmish round" and make good the ir- reparable 14)6f -find a potato., when there +was sone to be fon:A-Youth's Oolnpatt. ion, WEDDING BELLS. Rev. Donald McKenzie and Miss Grace Blood were Married Wed- nesday Evening. At 8 30 Wednesday evening at the Thirteenth Avenue Methodist church, Minneapolis, occurred the wedding, of Rev. Donald McKenzie, pastor of the Excelsior M. E. church and Miss Grape Blood of Minneapolis, daughter of Mr, and Mrs. H. D. Blood. Roy. T. F. Al- len and Rev, Fielder officiated. Messrs, John Williams, Ray Gould, Avery Davis and Rev. Robinson ushered the guests to their seats. Rev. Vernon McCombes acted as best man, aud Miss Birdie Trowbridge as maid of honor. Little Miss Esther Johnson was flower girl. Mr. B. T. Batter presided at the organ. The church was beautifully decorated with palms, feria aud cut flowers. The bride was attired in white French lawn elaborately tucked and trimmed. with lace. She carried lilies of the valley. The maid of honor wore a gown of pale blue mousseline and parried red roses. The little flower girl wore a daiuty frock of white dotted swiss aud carried a basket of sweet peas. Promptly at 8.30 the doors were closed, aud to the plaintive strains of the Loheu- grin bridal chorus the ushers led the maid of honor, the groom and best man to the altar, while the bride, preceded by the flower girl, passed up the main aisle to meet them. The ceremony was simple and very impressive, the ring -form being, used. In the preseuce of over three huudred guests Rev. Allen pronounced the hap- py pair husband and wife. Immediately after the benediction, the organ pealed forth the joyous strains of Mendelsohu's wedding march and the bridal procession proceeded to the church parlors where au informal reception was held. The parlors were handsomely de- corated in scarlet aud white, the colors of the Epwortb. League, in which organ. ization Mrs. McKenzie has been an efficient worker. Beueath a great red floral umbrella the newly married couple, assisted by Mrs. Myrtle Luddeu, Miss L. Antrim Miss Trowbridge and Mr. McCombs re- ceived the guests. Refreshments were served by Misses Bertha Blood, Nina Dahl, Anna John- son, L. Couutrymau and Myrtle Ander- son. Mr. and Mrs. McKenzie were the re- cipients of mauy beautiful and useful gifts. After receiving the cordial and heartfelt expressions of good will of their many friends, the bridal party took the train for Minnetonka, via C. M. 8a St. P. Ry. to St. Louis Park, driving thence to Excelsior. All nature seemed to smile on their happiness and to pro - sage a long and happy union. A perfect June day, full of sunshine and beauty, and an evening calm, serene and peace- ful, with a myrid of fireflies, and the stars over head to light their home com- ing. So may their life together be peace- ful, bright aud fall of happiness, aud as the evening of life comes on with the passing of the years may the light of heaven still shine upon them in benedic- tion. Excelsior friends all unite in the heartiest congratulations. The recep- tion which was to have been tendered Mr. and Mrs. McKenzie this evening at the Methodist church has been postponed for one week. -Excelsior, Minn. News.
