Find New Health in the use of Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills,.
A few years ago Mrs, James R. Stuart,
of Tborold, Ont„ who is well known to
most of the residents of that town,
fennd her health severely shattered as
the rebuff of an attack of anaemia, Ae
told practically in her own words, Mrs.
Stuart Nays: "My blood was turned to.

Twenty eight years ago Ontario hada was under the care of a good doctor, but

2,900.

WHEN BUILDING WAS CHEAP.
(Toronto News.)
Li the 'lays wheu -The Grange" was
built, houses were not dear in Turouto.
That was in 1817. Anyone who has seen
"The Grange" will have noted that this
colonial facsimile of an English manorial
=establishment is not only large, but well
and solidly built. .A. visit to the interior
tells the same story, and reveals a sort
of Architecture which would have de-
lighted the soul of au Anglo-Saxon king.
In that rambling manor, with its panell-
ed walls and dark, lofty eeiliugs, and
heavy carved balustrades, are carloads
of walnutand oak; timber enough, if
sold for furniture, to build ten large up-
to-date houses in Toronto, even at the
present extravagant cost of baildiug.
The walls ere solid, and the masonry in
good condition. The outside pillars are
stone. The building -now the oldest
brick house in Toronto -looks as though
it might easily stand another half cen-
tury. Yet according to Mr. Goldwin
Smith, the present occupant of "The
Grange" this remarkable building was
pat up for the fabulous sum of $4,000.
A TEMPERATE COUNTRY.
In a letter to the Brantford Expositor,
Mr. George Johnson, Domiuion statisti-
cian, says:
"In answer to your letter, asking for
Canada's expenditure in intoxicating li-
quor compared with other countries, I
have to say that Canada's liquor bill is
$54,586,191, or $9.87 1-2 per head of the
population. Similarly prepared, the lie
quer bill of the United Kingdom is $36.-
29 per head or $1,506,085,189; that of the
States is $1,935,827,421, or $24.75 per
head, and that of Australia is $17.20, or
$78,867,016."
It will thus be seen, says the Exposi-
tor, that John,Bal1's liquor bill is four
times that of Canada, and Uuele Sam's
two and a half times, while that of Aus-
tralia is nearly doable.
Under the circumstances, it isnot sur-
prising that Messrs. Rowntree and Sher -
well, two Englishmen, who nndertook
to investigate the liquor problem the
world over, were able to say of this coun-
try:
"The consumption of alcoholic bev-
orazcs, with one exception, is smaller in
Canada than in any other country for
which statistical data are available, and
it continues to decline."
Kidney Disease
and Rheumatism
These terribly painful ailments
ars thoroughly cured by
Dr. Ohass's Kidney -Liver
Pills. .
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are the great-
est blood builder and nerve tonic kuown
to medical science. Through their use
pale cheeks are made rosy, dull eyes are
made bright, and thin wasted figures
made plump. Every dose crakes new,
rich red blood that drives out disease ane
strengthens every organ iu the body.
You can get these pills from any dealer
in medicine, or by mail postpaid, at 50
cents a box or six boxes for $3 50 by writ-
ing the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co.,
Brockville, Ont.
GREAT BRITAIN AND
HER COLONIES.
Lord Thring has au interesting article
in the last number of the Nineteenth
Century and After, ou the question of
the fiscal and political relatiou`s between
Great Britain and her colonies. He
points out that the British Empire covers,
in area, one-fifth of the globe, and is
ninety-eight times the size of the mother
country. Of her forty-three dependen-
cies. Canada, the largest, is thirty times
her size, and Gibraltar, the smallest,
covers au area of but two square miles,
Canada and Australia have, respectively,
one-eighth and one.eleventh of her popu-
lation. The whole commerce of the
British Empire is eight hnudred millions
of pounds sterling or four thoasiind mil-
lions of dollars. Of this, three thousand
millions of dollars are with foreign na-
tions, and one thousand millions of dol-
lars with her dependencies, divided
equally between the self-governing col-
onies and those not self-governing.
Her commerce with Iudia amounts to
$314,438,000, with Australia $227,242,315
and with Canada $137,856,280. Lord
Thring is no friend of Mr. Chamberlain's
fiscal policy, which he argues, from the
above figures, would be (as foreign na-
tions, India and the crown colonies and
the dependencies are free trade custom-
ers, and Canada and Australia the only
protective ones) favoring customers of
five hundred millions of dollars, and an-
noying customers of thirty-five hundred
millions of dollars.

IMMIGRATION MATTERS
Much more important than it may
appear at a glance, is the large number
of immigrants who are coming to this
country for the purpose of "hewing out
a home" fez. themselves. There was a
time whom this phase had to be taken in
its literal sense, but it hardly applies at
the present time, when settlers may go
into a prairie country where there is no
hewing whatever to be done. Last year
135,000 settlers found homes in this land
of magnificent opportunities and marvel-
lous resources, and it is said that they
are landing at Halifax or Quebec at the
rate of 3000 a week, to say nothing of
the large numbers who are crossing
from the neighboring republic. New
settlers mean a great deal to a country
like ours. Economic students claim
that each settler is worth $1000 to a
country, and if this be so it is easy to
estimate the material vain alone of the
immigration venting in. Farmers all
over are complaining that they cannot
get help, and for this very reagon agri-
culture is suffering, one result here of
being shown in the fact that dairying
has fallen off enormously, and farmers
are directing their energies in other
directions, The American emigration,
next to the movement of otu' Own people
to the west, is the beat conceivable, be-
cause the American settlers have not
only capital, but what is venally impor-
tant, they bave had prairie experience.
To such large proportion has the move-
ment from the States to the Canadian
west reached, that the Atnerican govern-
ment has taken the matter in hand, and
is trying to check it, and it would not be
surprising if they asked for the with-
drawal of the different Canadian emi-
gration agents wino are industriously
laboring among the Americans. All the
people coming here means the demand
for manufactured goods; it means the
better development of the country; it is
the one thing necessary for our expan-
sien and growth, and es there is no like-
lihood of the demand for labor being
affected by it, no check should be put
upon it, but rather should it be enconr-
aged in every possible way, Canada
can yet pro-ide ketosis for millions, and

In School Days.
(John Greenleaf Whittier.)
Still sits the school house by the road,
A ragged beggar sunning;
Around it still the sumaohs grow,
And blackberry vines are running.
Within the master's desk is seen,
Deep -scarred by raps official,
The warping floor. the battered seats,
The jackknife's carved 'initial.
The charcoal frescoes on its wall;
Its door's worn sill, betraying
The feet that, creeping slow to school,
Went storming out to playing!
Long years ago a winter sun
Shoue over it at setting,
Lit up its western window -panes,
Aud low eaves' icy fretting.
It touched the taugled golden curls
Aud brown eyes fall of grieving
Of oue who still her steps delayed
When all the school was leaving,
For near her stood the little boy
Her childish favor singled,
His cap pulled low upon a face
Where pride and shame were mingled
Pushing with restless feet the snow
To right and left, he lingered -
As restlessly her tiny hands
The blue -checked apron fingered.
He saw her lift her eyes; he felt
The soft hands light, caressing,
And heard the tremble of her voice
As if a fault confessing.
"I'm sorry that I spelt the word;
I hate to go above you;
Because" -the brown eyes lower fell-
"Becouse, you see, I love yon!"
Stili memory to a gray-haired mau
That sweet child face is showing,
Dear girl. the grasses on her grave
Have forty years been growing!
He lives to learn, in life's hard school,
How few who pass above him
Lament their triumph and Ms loss,
Like her -because they love him.

important official news from tho

of the complete re-establishment of

it was brought about and whether a
battle was necessary to accomplish
it are mysteries which Viceroy Alexi-

al consequence of this achievement,
is sobered by official despatches
showing the activity of the Japanese
in Eastern 3lanclitu•ia.
