'Henry Clews, iu en article iu The Cosmopolitan upon business iu Wail street, makes the statement: "Glancing at other countries, I find that Canada made More material progress in 1903 thau lit spy previous year in her history, business iucreasiug substantially in nearly every breach of trade and nu- ance, stimulated by bountiful crops and one hundred and fifty thousand immi- grants." By the new regulations of the Depart- ment of Education the whole Pablio Sckooi system. of the Province will be recast accordiug to the very latest prin- ciples of pedagogy. More respousibility will be cast on teachers and the inspec- tors, and there will be fewer examine. tions. Latin will not be obligatory for the junior uou-professional examination, but will be au "optional bonus subject." The regulations have beeu approved by the Ontario Cabinet. My best friend and teacher when Was a young man was a man bred in Scottish traditions, John Stuart Mill. He said to me often: "Two or three things I commend to you, Keep your- self in the full air of the world and play your part in the world's affairs. Second. Always study rather than be passive; and third, do not be so unreasonable as to expect more from life in the world than life iu the world is capable of giving." -John Morley, M. P.

Every dose helps to send new, rich blood coursing through the system, bringing strength to Heals lungs and all parts of the body. Thons- auds testify to the truth of tuese stat.. meats, among thew Miss Euerine Viten- tire, St. Gertnaiu, Cane., who says: - 'While attending school my health be- gan to give way. The trouble cams ou gradually and the doctor ssha attended me said it was due to overstudy and a rest would put me right. But instead of getting better I grew weaker. I suf- fered from headaches and dizziness, and at night I did not sleep well. I was troubled with pains in the back, uiy ap- petite left me and I grew pale as a corpse. Fluidly I became so weak I was forced to rentaiu in bed. As the ductor did not help the auy, I asked my father to get me Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Before I had used two boxes there was au tine provetnent, and when I had taken a half dozen boxes I was again iu perfect health. I believe all weak girls will find new heultk if they will take the pills." Anaemia, indigestion, heart trouble, rheumatism, kidney trouble, and the special ailments of women are all doe to poor blood, and are all cured by Dr. Williams' Piuk Pills. You can get these pills from any medicine dealer, or by mail post paid at LO ceuts a hnx or six boxes for $2.50 by writiug The Dr. Wil- liams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. THE AUDITOR -GENERAL. The report is current at Ottawa that the entrance of Mr. A. B. Aylesworth, K. C., into the Dominion Cabinet may be looked forst an early date. Although ministerial confirmation of the rumor is lacking, it nevertheless meets with ready acceptance in political circles. The rack and file of the party in Oa- tario would welcome with enthusiasm the appearance of kir. Aylesworth in politics, and it would be regarded with no less favor in the other provinces. 1T WILL BE A LIBERAL VICTORY. No one will charge the Toronto News with being other than a Conservative paper, and its virtual admission that in case of an appeal to the people, the Lib- erals will again carry the country, is sig- nificant. Discussing the probable out- come of au election, it says: - "But *Nile the Opposition will carry Ontario, even if the Grand Trunk should enter the contest in support of the Ministerial candidates, the Liberal forces in Quebec seem to be unbroken Mr. Tarte has ceased to be a political factor; Sir Wilfrid Laurier's supremacy stands unchallenged. It is conceded also that Mr. Fielding, even though he must face the leader of the Opposition, has lost none of his strength in Nova Scotia, and that large Conservative gains there are improbable. In New Brans - wick the Government may not do as well as four years ago. Mr. Emmerson, although he has done better in Parlia- ment than was expected, is not such a past master in the science of electioneer- ing as Mr. Blair, nor has he the force and authority in New Brunswick politics which the former Minister of Railways exercised. The Liberals of Prince Ed- ward Island must feel the loss of Sir Louis Davies, but the island is naturally Liberal, and the chances are that ita re- presentation in Parliament will remain practicaIIy unchanged. The Opposition seem to look for their chief gains in Oat- ario, in New Brunswick and in the west. It seems to be admitted that in Manitoba the voters' lists were neglected by the Liberals, and that the Conservatives are likely to improve their position. In the Territories the Government has nomin- ated excellent candidates, and Liberals seem confident that they will carry the a.

The statement is ggiug the rounds of the press of Canada extensively that un- der the Audit Act no Domiuieu check can be issued by the Government at Ottawa unless the account has first been examined and approved by the Auditor. General. This absnrd statement is gen- erally credited. and the belief is almost universal tbat it is literally true. Gov- ernment could not be carried on under such circumstances. Each department pays its owu accounts, and the ac- countant signs the check, which is counter -signed by the deputy Minister. That is the way nearly all the accounts of the Dominion Government are paid. The duty of the Auditor -General is to examine the accounts afterwards, and to see that they are charged to the right appropriation, and to scrutinize them generally. Every person knows that the auditing of accounts in any business is done after payment. How could an account be audited before payment? The thing is a manifest paradox. There is just as much misconception about the Auditor -General as there was about the duties of the General Officer Command- ing. The most regrettable thing is to see the number of editors who from ignorance of the manner in which our public affairs are conducted circulate statements which mislead the people. stubborn Skin Diseases. Nothing is more discouraging than a cape of eozema or salt rheum which re- fuses to heal. By using Dr. Chase's Ointment, however, you soon see that new skin is forming and the sore part fs becoming smaller and smaller. The itching is entirely overcome after a few applications and you are given satisfac- tory evidence that a continuation of the treatment will bring a thorough cure. A SUMMER WIDOWER. The Toronto Daily Star paints the fol. lowing picture that applies to more than city residents: ---Ho sleeps its leis desert- ed hcine. The house is empty. hollow, cavernous. When he arrives at night he half expects to find the place turned upside duwu by burglars. He evoudets if he left that dittittg rooni door open lite that whop he went away iu the tttornieeg. He shoos the place until the hour fta- retirt'tueut. In the wonting he waters thetpinuss bat finds the panus are gone -confided to some friend or neigh- bor, and Ibis leek of faith in hint on his ife's part, wounds him. Re decides to trust the other plants to some neighbor, likewise. Wheu be tries to read of an eveuing the bileuce cif the house iuter rupts him, and reaaieg loses ita pleas - tire. He goes out, bqt he has nowhere to go He is alone iu a great city, the most houtelese, frieudless object iu it. To toll the truth, he expected that he wonld like the freeeom of Itis old bach- elor days for a couple of mouths. He thongbt it would be like old times, and that he could float around as he used to do. Biat he finds that he has forgotten how to float. The club is not the same. for none of his old friends are there, or if they are, they do not amuse him. He invents an excuse for hurryiug off, and outside, he hesitates where to go. M one time in his life he used to enjoy a trip to the Island. He.tries it ouce, but there is nothing in it tfor hien. The young people seem foolish, and he won- ders why girls giggle now as they did not years ago, and why young men slap each other on the back and tip each other's hats. At home, if he sits on his verandah some acquaintauce comes aloug and talks politics, but be is tired of it all and canuot get interested. He is invited out to dinner, doesn't want to go, but goes. and wishes he had note Dull affair. He leaves the house and puts up at an hotel. Iu two or three days he quits the hotel -more comfortable in his own room at home. At this period he begins to take a deep interest in his garden, bis iuteution being to astonish hid family ou their return. This enthusiasm keeps him going for two Weeks, until he die - covers that all the best flowers will have bloomed and faded ere they return. He lets the gardeu go to' pot. AU this time ho is writing his wife the most cheerful let- ters -he takes a grille, almost a fierce pleasure in making it appear that he is contented. His wife -sends him a group picture of herself and the children in a rowboat, and next day he arranges with his partner that he will join his family for a fortnight and bring them home three weeks earlier than was orig- inally intended. The Summer widower is a distressing object. He does not fit into the scheme of things at all. He is in the world but not of it. He pretends to be happy, but he is not; his laugh is false, his smiles are forced. And yet the misappreheu- Mon prevails that he is a man who has a ' very good time of it. The city now is full of these haunted men. One of the Best Jails in Ontario. The annual report from the Inspector of Prisons will be very gratifying to the people of Huron county, placing as it does the institution at Goderich among the best -equipped and best managed jails In the Province. Supplementary to the Inspector's report, it is not out of place to note that Jailor Griffin and Deputy Knox have brightened wonder- fully she interior of the place by- the application of aluminum paint to all piping, railings, gratings, etc., in the corridors and main room, banishing the dreary and bleak appearance which prisons usually have. Following is the report of J. R. Akins. deputy inspector, who made the annual inspection last', month: I visited Goderich jail on Jnly 2nd. The principal changes to note since last inspection are the installation of the steam -heating plant throughout the jail instead of the old box wood -burning stoves. After many years of effort Goderich jail hits been made one of the best jails in the Province. Total cost of the steam plant was about $600, a very moderate figure for such extenive im- provements. The only remaining im- provement is to have the plumbing in- creased so that hot water can be used sill over the building instead of cold, and thins no doubt Will come in time. Seven persons were in custody on the date of my inspection, taro of them insane, Who, considering the crowded state of the asylums, way well be retained, as they are not dangerous characters. I examined the prison records and dis- covered that the population the winter when most jails are full, Wats only Else prisoners. This certainly is a *etre of satisfaction to the county and to the Province. The jail is well manged throughout, as it should be with the tacilitkes,►t Be in Earnest Be in earnest about your health. Do not suppose that the headaches, back- aches and other symptoms from which yon suffer will pass away of their own accord instead of developing into serious and chronic disease. If you are subject to kidney, liver and bowel derange- ments there is no preparation which will be so helpful to yon as Dr. Chase's Kid- ney Liver Pills. One pill a dose. The "Hoss" Suffers. Hardly any class of animal suffers so much from ignorance, carelessness and cruelty on the part of: drifers as the livery horse. Many of the people who hire:horses know nothi'ggg about driving or caring for them, many others, since they do not own the horse, care nothing about any injury to him provided they do not have to pay for it, and still an- other classa pleasure at driving him at the top osis speed as long as he can go regardless of his distress. Then there are the drunken drivers, reckless of everything. The drivers who want to race with everybody who comes along, and the people out for a "good time" and whose idea is to "let'er ga." There are the people who overdrive, who do not water, who water when the horse is overheated, who do not blanket, and others who commit all kind of offences against horse -flesh -the oue idea being that since the horse is not their own it don't make much difference. The only remedy is to educate public opinion up to the point where people will treat horses Well for the horse's take, and see to it that others do so also. -Oar Dumb Animals. ROW'S THIS?

A hint for broken beetroot. -To prev- ent a beetroot that is broken from losing its color in cooking, burn it with a red- hot poker. This will form a new skin and prevent it bleeding. Try glycerine for removing stains of tea and coffee from table linens. Pro- cure it of good quality, and with it rub the affected parts, afterwards wash the linen in the ordinary way. For boiled beetroot wash the beet thoroughly but carefully so as not to let it bleed. Put in a pau with salted boiling water, and boil for one hour. Take out and slim at`once. Slice into a vetegable dish. Have ready in a saucepan a little melted butter and vinegar. boiled up-, pour over the beet. and serve.

A woman's idea of.a man friend is a lover. 1 A woman's idea ora woman friend is as a confidante. t - The less said about the' average wo- man's idea of badness the better. A girl doesn't think you really love her unless yon think up some freak pet name for her. Club women seem to think duty done when food for thought has been provid- ed. It is better not to know a woman's real opinion of a rival when she speaks enthusiastically of her beauty. If women carried their owe traveling bags more they'd be less prone to toilet articles of weighty cut glass. Two women, or two men, for that mat- ter, may be friends, absolutely true and trustworthy, providing one be dead. There might well be an aristocracy founded on clothes, siince some women appear quite incapable of judging the human species. upon any other basis. Pointed Paragraphs. From the Chicago News.

Reateat for Storage, A. style of hay and grain rack he common use in many parts is illus. trated by American Agriculturist., The two bed -pieces of spruce 3 by 6 inches in size are either 14 or 16 feet long. b'ive crosspieces 2 by 0 spruce or 2 by 4 hard ''rood, 3 feet 6 inches long, connect the bed -pieces -1. The aide -pieces which hold the rack. ten in number, five on a side, are A inches thick, 4 feet 2 inches long and taper from 3 inches wide at one end to lir inches at the other. A plank 2 to 12 runs through the middle of the rack, and these side -pieces lit un. A Kioctrpowy HAYRACK. der this and inside the bed-piecep, as shown. Pour boards 6 inches wide are placed on each sick to forth the rack. The first board rests on the crosspieces, the other three being equal distance apart. Two pieces 2 by 4, 7 feet 9 inches long, are used, one at each end of the rack, and are bolted to the side arms just beneath the top board. The ladders are made of hard wood and are (1 feet tit inches long, with tWo crosspieces. The side arms should be of oak or other hard wood, but the hoards may, be of spruce or pine. The ladders are bolted near the ends of the bed - pieces and rest against the cross- pieces at the end. By removing the four bolts which hold the end pieces the rack may be knocked down flat to save room in storage. Two Causes for Hull •Satter. The dull and dry appearing condi- tion of butter limy be due, first, to the presence of an excess of moisture properly incorporated, and, second, to the treatment the butter receives during the manufacture. Where the dull appearance is due to moisture, the water has been incorporated dur- ing the churning or during the wash- ing process, through excessive churn-. ing in the buttermilk or in the wash water. There this fault is clue to the treatment during the manufac- turing process the dullness is caused by churning at very high tempera- ture. Such soft butter also contains a high moisture content, but a great deal of fat is lost in the buttermilk or by overworking the butter. If the dullness is brought about by being overworked it will, as a rule, con- tain very little )noisture, though its appearance may be like that contain- ing an excess. It ,thus becomes very difficult to differentiate between butter contain- ing much and little moisture. The only way known to distinguish these two kinds of dull butter without a special test is to sample it with a butter trier in a medium warm room{ Both samples will appear greasy( The back of the trier will not be clean after the sample has been drawn. The dull dry butter, which shows stickiness on both sides of the trier when drawn, but does net shrivel or roll on the trier, usually, haat been overworked. When such but. ter is mashed between the fingers it docs not seem to melt very rapidly, but assumes more of a dough -like appearance. When a plug of butter 'drawn with a trier is broken in two and examined the ends where it has been broken will appear dense and hull, similar to a piece of gum which has been chewed for awhile, only not sticky to so great an extent. If the dullness is due to an exces- sive amount of moisture it is difti-- Cult and in some cases impossible to thaw a whole trierful of butter at a time. The butter will roll and thrivel on both sides of the trier. Guineas on this Farm. The guinea hen, both as a useful and ornamental bird, should have a place on every farm. The only ob- jection usually made against them is an account of their noisy outcries.; One soon becomes accustomed to their peculiar music and hardly neti, tes it, or disregards it on account of their many desirable qualities. They, are attractive to the sight, amusing In their habits and actions, and by many their flesh and eggs are con- sidered superior articles of diet. Their flesh is dark unci much like that of the prairie chicken. Their eggs are fully equal to those of the common chicken differing only its having a less quantity of albumen.; 'i'hcy begin to lay the first warm Spring days, depositing their eggs in: any convenient hen's nest, and later when vegetation is advanced they secrete their nests, which often are found to contain from 50 to 100 eggs each. Some of them will not. choose indit'idual ,nests and if turkeys are kept with theta it is frequently, the case that guineas will be hatched: by then', four weeks being required' to hatch both sorts of eggs. Guineas usually hatch their broods about the last of July and require no care or attention it they have sufficient run. The mother hen at this time is very shy and it tvill melee he by accident that you see her, closely followed by her broad of 20 or more chicks. Their food at this time consists entirely of insects, of which they destroy surprising num- bers. One morning in September six young guineas were shot and in cleaning then their crops tvere found completely extended with grass-, hoppers, each crop containing more than halt a pint. -American Agricuie turista To Tell a Pullet Vroin 1► Hers. • It is sometimes difficult to tell K pullet from a hen, especially if the pullet is nearly matured, flays Partn.
