tug, jnst't'a much n+aunre for agrioult•ar-
al purposes can be produced as in cattle
feeding, eon the quality of the manure
equal,f nota superior. The bacon mar
ket is gut .0 as uulimited us (iia beef mar•
ket, cousequeutly as little likelihood of
a glut. Of late years, since the farmers
of O.itari . have devoted considerable
study to the requirements of the British
bacon market and have learned to pro-
duce to a Certaiu exteut the quality waut-
ed, Irish and Danish bacon, which pre-
viously supplied the English market,
has to a. great exteut beeu discarded and
Cauadiau bacon takeu the place. If we
are to raiutaie and develop our trade iu
bacon with Great Britaiu, it is of the
greatest importance that we pay strict
atteutiou to quality. Nut ouly must our
bogs be bred to give the desired couforma-
tiou but they must be fed and mrtuaged iu
such a way as to give the desired quality.
One of the greatest defects in quality
with which our packers have to contend,
is a tendency of some sides to turn soft
duriug the process of curing. Softness
has nothiug to do with fatness; in fact a
thiu side is more apt to develop softuess
than a fat one. In a soft side the fat is
soft and spongy, and sometimes even the
lean is affected. There are all degrees
of softness up to a mere slight tender-
ness; bat auy degree of teuderuess de-
tracts very much from the value of a
side, and a really soft bide is practically
worthless. The per tentage, of soft sides
is sometimes very high, even as high as
40 per cent. of the total et certain seasons
of the year„ It will, therefore, be easily
understood that suoh a condition aepre-
sents an euormous shrinkage in value to
say nothing of the injury of the reputa-
tion of our bacon iu Britain. This is not
a matter therefore which affects merely
the packer. It affects the bacon indus-
try es a whole; and the farmer, sooner
or later, must shoulder the loss. It is
important, therefore, that the farmer
should pay particular attention to the
question of quality.

There is uo torture more acute and in-
tolerable than nervousness. A uervous

depressed, and, although iu a ooustautly
exhausted state is tumble to sit or lie
still. If you are nervous or worried or
suffer froin a combination el languor
nun irritation you need a nerve touio, and
Dr. Williams' Piuk Pilis are absolutely
the best thing iu the world for you. You
Esau only get rid of nervousness through
feeding your nerves with rich. red blood,
and Dr. Williams' Pink Pilis actually
make new blood. There is up doubt
about this -thousands can testify to the
blood -making, nerve restoring qualities
of these pills. St. Vitus dance is one of
the most severe forms of nervousness.
and Mrs. H. Hevenor, of Gravenhurst
Ont., tells how these .pills cured her little
boy. She says: "At the age of eight my
tittle boy was attacked with St. Vitus
dance, from which he suffered in a severe
form. His nerves twitched to suoh an
extent that he was almost helpless, and
had to be constantly watched. He was
under several doctors at, different times,
hut they did not help,him. so I decided to
try Dr. Williams' Ptak Pills and these
have completely cured hint, and now not
,t sieu ot the tronhle remains."
When you buy these pills always look
et the box and see that the hill name
Dr. Williams Piuk Pills for Pale People
is printed on the wrapoer, and refuse to
take anything else. Yon can get these
pills from all mediciue dealers or they

THE NEW TARIFF.
The following is a summary of the
tariff changes brought down in the Bud-
get speech.
The Government proposes to refer the
question of a tnriff to a Royal Commis-
sion, meanwhile s'iveral subjects are
dealt with. The application of the Stan-
dard Oil Company for the reductiou of
the duty ou crude oil is favorably re-
ceived. Crude oil ender 40 free. Refin-
ed oil reduced from 5 to 2!-e cents per
DUNDONALD'S DISMISSAL.
Bystander, commenting in The
Weekly San on the Duudonald affair
says: -
"That. Lord Dundonald did not take
the right way of giving expression to
his complaint against the Government is
nndeniable. Nor can any fault be found
with the Government for asserting its
dignity and upholding the rules of office.
For the rest, these quarrels between the
party Government of Canada and the
representatives of the ' Imperial War
Office have always been3going ou, and
will go on so long as the -dual authority
is retained. One Imperial commander
of militia did get through his term of
office, but he escaped friction simply by
ivaction. Harmony can be secured only
by introducing unity of administration,
in other words, by vesting tie authority
in the responsible Minister alone. Cana-
da will have in this as i e other matters
to act upon Lord Minto's pregnant hint
she is "uo longer a plantatiot, but a na-
tion." Six millions of tolerably intelli-
gent people must undertake, in respect
to military administration as in other
respects, to govern or misgovern them-
selves.

the defendant's counter claim with
costs. In this action plaintiff, James
Belbeck, and the defendant, Guy B.
Ross, both tanners in Hay, entered into
a contract by which the plaintiff
agreed to cut for the defeutant 250 cords
of wood upon the defendant's farm, for
which the plaintiff claims he was to re-
ceive 65 cents per cord. The plaintiff
claims he cut sgine 2Siz cords when the
defendant wrgngfully stopped hint.
The plaintiff ulimed $200 damages for
breach of conte ct and costs. The de-
fendant differed with plaintiff on terms
of the contract and claimed that plaintiff
refused or ueglected to continue the
work, having done work not exceeding

dent •had paid plaintiff $72.25, which
he claimed was an excess of $48.45,

K. C., for plaintiff. John Bell, K. C.,
for defendant. Judgement by consent
for $260 without costs. About a year
ago Messrs. Cantelon Bros. sold a quan-
tity of batter to a firm in Halifax and
hhipped it from a station on the G. T. R.
in this county. To protect themselves
they took the bill of lading in their owo
name (instructing the railway to advice
the purchasers), and sent it to Halifax
through the brink, attaching a
draft on the purchasers for the
amount of tIle price so that the draft
must be paid before the purchasers
could get the butter. By some error
on the part of the railway company's
agents the butter was delivered to the
purchasers without the order of Cantelou
Bros. and without the bill of lading and
then the purchasers resisted payment.
Messrs. Cantelou demanded settlement
for tbe butter from the G. T. R.., claim-
ing that through the mistake made they
were entitled to damages to that extent.

Globe Report.
The budget debate was resumed by
Robert Holmes, who in pointed and
vigorous style discussed the coutentiou
of Opposition speakers that there was
nothing in the budget. Was it, he asked
nothing that the Finance Minister was
able to aunouce a surplus for last year of
$1.4,000,000, and to estimate a surplus for
this year of $16,500,000, the largest in the
history of the Dominion? It became the
happy lot of the Finance Minister to
announce a substautaal surplus seven
years in succession; and he reported a
total surplus during these seven years
of Liberal rule of $57,000,000. Was that
nothing, or was it nothing that Mr.
Fieldiug announced. "We have been
able to deepen our canals, enlarge and
improve our harbors, extend the Inter -
colonial, erect necessary public buildings
in various parts of the Dominion, and

ing $241,000,000 today as against less
than $120,000,600, and our exports nearly
$230,000,000 as against $121,000,000; or
that our total trade, the barometer of a
country's prosperity, is $167,000,000, as
against $224,000,000, au increase of $243-
000,000, or nearly $19,000,000 more than

Was it nothing that our export trade
with the mother laud is $36,000,000 more
than it was eight years ago, and our to-
tal trade with Great Britain .$88,000,000
more than it was iu 1896, or as much
more as our entire trade with that coun-
try was in 1805;!that our railway ton-
nage is 23.000,000 more, and that the
business failures of the Dominion are
$8,000,000 less in value than they were
eight years ago, and much less than they
were at any time during the last twenty-
one
wentyone years. Was it nothing that the de-
posits in the chartered banks are $196,-
000,000, an increase greater than tho
total deposits in 1896, and that deposits
in the savings banks are $21,000,00;
more than they were iu 1896? Yet, said
Mr. Holmes, in face of all these incon-
trovertible evidences of the marvellous
and unequalled prosperity of this wisely
and well -governed Dominion, there are
men in the House who have the unblush-
ing audacity to say of the best budget
ever brought down: "There is nothing

Good Play of a Golf Enthusiast.
"The Wilkie shot is what we call a
special stroke Iu the game of golf," said
a New Orleans man. '"Phis stroke is
so called all over the south and was
given its name because it was made
by a man named Wilkie, a member of
the New Orleans Golf club.
"It was one of the prettiest plays I
ever saw and was made during a
match. Wilkie drove off from the ninth
hole, and his ball landed In a small
creek, which was one of the hazards
in the course. The ball was lighter
than the water and floated. To take
It out and begin play over again .meant
the loss of two strokes and the hole, se
Wilkie waded into the water, which
was about two feet deep, and played
the ball from there. IIe Made a pretty
stroke and was on the green, making
It in two. IIe holed out i►i three, which
is bogey for that hole. It was a cold
day, and that water was not pleasant,
but the net gained Wilkie lasting fame,.
and his, stroke will always with us
be called a 'Wilkie shot."
The Girl of the Netherlands.
The Dutch girl does not enjoy any-
thing like the numount of freedom
grunted to her English or American
sister. She is a very carefully chap-
eroned young person, and when she
goes to the theater it is with her elders,. -
not merely with a friend or two of her
own age. At the dances she attends,
songs, 1•eeltatious and inutile for the
entertainment of the elders forth a
part of the regular programme, and the
chaperons sit at tables socially enjoy-
ing their coffee or other refreshments,
while the young folk glide over the,
waxed floor to tbe strains of the latest.

the best of their opportunities of
amusement; for when it pleases their

Whistler Before Whistler.
Mortimer elenpes told the following
story of Whistler, who was to deliver
au address one day to the Society of
British Artists: "The master at length
entered, faultlessly dressed, walking
with a swinging, jaunty step, evident-
ly
vidently quite delighted with himself and the
world in general. He passed Clown the
gallery, ignoring the nssembled mem-
bers, and walked tip to his own picture;.
And there ire stayed for quite fifteen
minutes, regarding. it with a satisfied
expression, Stepping now backward,
now forward, canting his head end
dusting the surface of the glass with a.
silk pocket handkerchief. We watched
him open mouthed. Suddenly he turned
round, beamed upon tis and uttered but
two words-liravo, Jimmy!' -then took
my arm and hurried ole out of tate gals_
lery, talking volubly the while."
A Bottle of Lnnatinges.
Three or four languages strove for
mastery in ancient Gaul, which is now
France. German was spoken by the
12,000 Frank invaders. Popular Laths
was spoken by 0,000,000 Gallo -Romans.
Literary Latin was the language of the
church and of literature. tow Latin
was nfterwnrd the innguage of the ad-
ministration. German was the lint to
succumb. In four centuries it ceased to
be understood by the soldiers, end in
seventy yours more it had become an
object of ridicule. But it survives lit
more than 000 words, expressing the
things of government, law and war,
olid thus forms no Ineignlficutat part of
the b'renelf language.
