NOTES AND COMMENTS.
The United States steel trust will pay
no dividend on its common stock for the
last quarter, its earnings having decreas-
ed by thirty millions last year. The
40.000 holder of common stock realize
that when they bought it Morgan gave
them the cold steel.
The Ontario Legislature was opened
by his Honor, ear. Mortimer Clark,
-.Thursday afternoon, with more cere-
kainy than has been known since the
new Parliament Buildings were opened,
eleven years ago. The speech from the
Throne gives only two measures of wide
importance, those relating to the Assess.
merit Act and the liquor license laws,
were announced last year and shelved.
According to statistics of the Inland
Revenue department up to June 30th
last, the use of spirituous liquors and
tabacco is increasing in Canada, and
that of malt liquors decreasing. Over
the previous year's consumption, the in-
crease of spirits was 274,566 gallons,
valued at 4544,980; the quantity of (Ng -
ars increased by 10,683,527 and tobacco
by 1,134,000 pounds; the use of Malt
liquors decreased 1,868,617 gallons.
FINGER POST OF PROGRESS.
The commercial centre of the Do-
minion seems to be shifting west
ward. In earlier days Quebec held
that distinction, Nczt, Montreal has
had the place for a, long time,, dis-
puting that pcsition With Toronto.
Now the centre le shifting, and Win-
nl seg leokaa like becoming the hub.
Winnipeg has been selected as the
next place for holding the Domin-.
ion Exposition. This is a tribute,
not only to Winnipeg's present im-
porta/lee, but the greatness of the
country which contributes to her
commercial and civil importance.. We
are a country of wide areas, and also
a broad spirit of nationality. •While
we naturally shrink from being put
behind in the national races by the
stalwart west, we all rejoice in its
prosperity. Our joy has this element
of selfishness in it, that the greater
the west beconees the larger will be
the area of commercial and Indus-
trial demand for the products of the
far east. The selection of Winni-
peg as the next site of the Dominion
Exposition will do much td make
known the boundless possibilities of
our western heritage.
Secret of Long Life.
(Goldwin Smith.)
"I probably, however, owe something
to plain living and bodily exercise as
well as to immunity from overwork.
At the school at which I first was,
though it deemed itself first-class, the
diet was such as I suppose an American
boy would scorn. Our breakfast was
bread and butter and a cup of tea. Oar
dinner was one helping of meat with
vegetable and one helping of pudding.
Our supper was the same as oar break-
fast. The food was good of its kind
During the four years and more which I
spent at that school I was never in bed
for sickdess, nor do I remember that
any one of my schoolmates was.
At college I did not overwork •myself.
I never worked at night. But I took
regular exercise, almost always on
horseback. When an examination
approached I rather reduced than in-
creased my amount of reading thinking
haat freshness and nerve would be worth
more to me in the trial than the little
additional amount of knowledge. I
may add that, though I have aever lived
by rule, my general habits have been
such as to preserve what my early ad-
vantages had given me. I have always
taken plenty of exercise; indulged a
tittle iu my own country, in field sports;
and traversed Switzerland and the Tyrol
with my knapsack. It has been my
habit to work early in the morning, not
late at night."

THE CRQWTH OF WINNIPEG,
The growth of Winnipeg is the key-
note of a special edition of The Winui-
.peg Telegram just issued. The paper
undertakes to show that there has
been more building done in Winnipeg
during 1903 than in any other city in
Canada ; that the increase in Clearing
house returns in Winnipeg show the
largest percentage of growth of any
city in Canada; that Winnipeg is the
second largest wheat market in Am-
erica, and also the largest in the Brit-
ish Empire; and that Winnipeg will
have the largest railway yards in the
world when the Canadian Pacific will
have completed its present work of
(reconstruction.
Statistics are published which show
that building permits to :the amount
of nearly $6,000,000 were issued ; that.
the bank clearings ,bavc Passed; the
$200,000,000 mark; that the amount of
wheat inspected' at Winnipeg between
September 1, 1902, and August 31.
1903, was greater, than at either Dd-
luth, Superior or Chicago.
Some interesting figures are quoted :
In 1900 the assessment had reached
$21,316,000 and three years later it had
increased by more thian 50 Per cent.
In 1900 building permits aggregating
$1,357,473 were issued and this year
the total amount is nearly $6,000,000.
Three years ago the population; )vas
considerably under 50,000, and now, ac-
cording to a conservative estimate, it
is placed at considerably over. 75,-
000.
The movement for technical educa-
tion in this province is progressing
rapidly, the following boards having
already installed either manual train-
ing or household science:

More school boards have thus far
adopted manual training than domes-
tic science, but as one, is the natural
complement of the other it, will not
be long before both studies axe in gen-
eral use. A satisfactory feature of the
manual trainipg system is that all ob-
jection to it on the; part of labor or-
ganizations has now been aba;nd'oned,
and it is recognized by( them! to be
a useful feature of the general educa-
tion of a child and no attempt at
teaching particular trades or turn-
ing out half-baked mechanics.

Women have
Kidney Disease
And snake the mistake of attributing the
resulting backache to other. causes.
Many women have kidney disease and do
hot know it. They confuse the symptoms
with those of ailments of a feminine nature.
Backache, loss of flesh, dry, harsh skin, de•
posits in the urine, swelling of the feet and legs,
stiffness and soreness of the muscles, weariness
and despondency art symptoms of kidney
disease, and call for
prompt treatment inorder
to prevent seri results.
MRS. W. WILKCINS,
Henry St., Bclle'.flle,
Ont„ states: ---"I suffered
a great deal with pains in
the small of the back
caused by kidney trouble.
Whenever I stooped I
could scarcely rise again
ten
the pains were so great.
The disease became so
Mrs. Wilkins severe that it affected my
general health, and I Was becoming very much
run down. Since using Dr. Chases Kidney -
Liver Pills, I can say that mfr trouble has
fly disappeared. I can speak in the
terms of this medicine from the way it
y�
in my case."

CRITICIZING BALFOUR,.
Pis Latest Speech Calle. forth Sums
Varied Views.
London, Jan, 12,-(C,A.P.)-Refar-
ring to Mr, Balfour's speech, The
Daily News says he goes on quib-
tiling while Chamberlain burns his
house over his head. lie is alarmed
at the rate Chamberlain is going,
but while the fire flames from every
storey the languid chief fireman dir-
ects a mere garden watering pot on
it.
The Morning Post says Mr, Bal-
four is right in urging the tariff re-
formers to go more slowly on the
ground of the difficulty in persuading
the colonies to modify their protec-
tionist regime in favor of Britain,
but he forgets that under the Cana-
dian preferential tariff the Canadian
woollen and cotton manufacturees
have suffered loss, yet the Imperial-
ist movement has grown stronger.
The Daily Telegraph says the
Prime Minister puts the unification
of the Empire before all other ob-
jects. The publication of the Puke
of Devonshire's letter has done more
than anything else to consolidate•the
imperialist party. All over interest
is alive and alert. The Unionist
party is fervent in the cause of the
ultimate future of Great Britain and
the Britons ace bee the seas,
The Daily Chronicle says Mr. Bal -
four's scheme was the humiliating
one of explaining his abdiction. Ho
laid down one proposition, of which
more will be heard, when he said
that any proposed arrangement with
the Colonies must be based on a
modification of the tariff walls
against British manufacturers. It
was Chamberlain who spoke of the
Australian invitation, but he did not
pretend the Australian offer included
that.
The Standard says Mr. Balfour de-
clined to commit himself to the pre-
ferential scheme because he sees the
people of these islands, as yet un-
converted to a tax on food and the
colonies unconverted to a lowering
of the tariff barriers behind which
their manufactories are being nursed.
The Times says Mr. Balfour does
not conceal his sympathy with Cham-
berlain's policy, but adheres to his
opinion that a new tax cannot be
placed on food merely as a financial
expedient. A great Imperial re-
organization must await an Imper-
ial wave. Chamberlain is in entire
sympathy with this view, and it is
his task to convert public opinion in
Great Britain and the colonies.
The Morning Post says Mr. Balfour
pleads for consideration of the man-
ner in which the Imperial tariff will
work before it is adopted. Mr. Cham-
berlain's manner of procedure in in
practical lines. The two statesmen
represent two aspects of one har-
monious scheme.

Health and Success
Weakness and disease cause discour-
agement, failure and unhappiness, but
with the use of Dr. Chase's Nerve Food
there comes new vigor and energy, new
hopes and new confidence, stronger de-
termination to succeed and the ability tq
apply one's self mentally andphysically.
Health and success go hand in hand. By

The Glory of Living.
(Chicago Record -Herald.)
It's difficult to live, because
The ones who have crave greater gains,
Because men disobey the laws
That God has given. There remains
For him who toils but little when
He pays for what they let him wear
And for the food he eats, and then
Goes trudging on he knows not where.
It's hard to live, because a few,
To swell their profits, force the rest
To go where dangers are anti do
The tasks that kill. But life's a jest,
A joke on him whose gaineare smelly
And for his guidance here's advice;
Thank God that they who want it all
Will let you live at any price.

Times (London, Eng.) trusts Prem-
ier Seddon of New Zealand's invite
tion to the Prime Ministers of the
self-governing colonies 4f, the Empire
to unite in protest against the in-
troduction of Chinese labor into the
Rand (South Africa) will not be ac-
cepted. If the Transvaal people are
favorable why should the home Gov-
ernment thwart their wishes. Such
a course would upset the constitu-
tional principle, which concedes the
right of the colonies to settle their
own affairs.
Pig Iron From Canada.
London, Jan. 12.-(0.A.P.)-Bri-
tish iron firms are greatly interested
in the arrival in Glasgow yesterday
of a cargo' of Canadian pig iron from
Cape Breton. No shipment of Cana-
dian iron has reached Glasgow for
almost two years, a circumstance
due to the fact that Canadian pro-
ducers were securing better prices at
home and in the United States. This
importation also marks the drying
up of British shipments to America.

It was't much of a place he filled,

and tilled,
While the greatest cause for his soul's

Was a fear that he wouldn't do his best,
So he smiled at his work and -went ahead

grace;

If they did get rough at et humble task?
But when life gets to the very end
Aud Death looks up from the pallid

What does it matter;«he place you filled,

I fancy the joy of Paradise,
When it's given out, will cause some
