IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE IN THE TIMES' . When 1 Was a Boy. SChicego Chronicle.) Sing re a song of the long ago, Of tbe days when hope was young, Aud my mother watching above me sang The sweetest song that ever was snug,. When to live was simply a boundless joy, Away back there when I was a boy. Sing me a song of the long ago, Wheu the world was free from care, And trouble and sorrow and pain were not, And love was everywhere, And I found my happiness in a toy, Away back there when I was a boy. Sing me a song of the long ago, Of the violet -bordered ways, When the nights were soft with gentle sleep, And rapture filled my days; And, let me go back and know that joy, Away baok there when I was a boy. CURIOUS FACTS. In 1846 Hamilton and Kingston were incorporated as cities. The first railway in Canada, from La Prairie to St. Johns, was built in 1836. In the year 1902 Canada produced from its mines $21,336,667 of gold and $7,845,600 silver. Le Gtifon was the first vessel built on lake Ontario. It was built by La Salle in 1679. . The great spruce forests of Canada' Donstitute the greatest pulp regions in the world. The Dominion of Canada is about 8,500 miles from east to west, and 1,400 miles from north to south, In 1901 there were 544,688 oconpiers of farm lands in Canada, of whioh 474,- 441 were owners and 47,745 tenants. The tobacco crop of Canada in 1901 was 11,266,732 pounds, of which Ontario raised 3,503,739 pounds, and Quebec 7,- 655,976 pounds. The first brewery was established in Canada on April 14, 1668. Fancy the oceans of beef the Canadians have swal- lowed since then. The earliest official records show that John and Sebastian Cabot landed in 1497 on that part of the Dominion of Canada known as Cape Breton, in Nova Scotia. The steamer Royal William, built at Quebec in 1831.32 was the first steamer that ever crossed the Atlantic, the motive power of which was entirely by steam. In Our Grandfather's Youth Paralysis was almost unheard of in the youth of our grandpare4s, and now nearly every newspaper contains a re- cord of someone being stricken with this dreadful form of helplessness. Paraly- sis is in reality a starving of the nerves, and can always be prevented by the timely use of Dr. Chase's Nerve Fond, a preparation which has no rival as a creator of nerve force. Pointed Paragraphs. (From the Chicago news.) The wings of thought bear us on to action. Love is elastin. but if stretched too far it becomes hate. Some men are like doormats—useful ouly for others to walk on. The higher the price of meat the more food we have for reflection. When there is nothing left to light for we may hope for universal peace. Sunshine is a great blessing, yet ib of- ten forces people to hunt the shade. There is more fun in courting a girl than there is in courting an investigation. When an outsider insists on fair play it is Usually a poor excuse for meddling. A woman seldom sees a man's cloven hoof until after she gets a whiff of his cloven breath. , • When a bnsbarid and wife are of one mind is a pretty safe bet that the mind belongs to the wife. Many a good man has been made to realize the hardness of the world by step- ping off a moving car backward. �BUNDOC BLOOD [BITTERS 1 1 Is a purely vegetable System Renovator, Blood Purifier and Tonic.

Don't undervalue yourself. Don't call attention to your own de. fects. The better way is to. Correct thein. Don't waste time in self-pity. • Don't lose ,your temper. Sefl•contro'l and civility oil the hinges of the day, Don't pose as if you expected syr+ pathy. Don't think about your looks. Don't mix frieudship with business. Don't be perftinct3ry. Some girls work as if it bored them. Not altogether honest either, is it? Don't wear'shoWy dress or ornaments during working hours. Don't bo late in the morning or so hur. ried at leaving that your work is but half done, Ou the opposite sale, these are the maxims that insure success: Do be attentive and diligent, Do bring to the task iu hand the best that is in you. Do watoh for trifles. Do look out for errors and rectify them. Do be impersonal. By this I mean putyour work before yourself as the sufficient excuse for your being in any working plane away from home. The absorbed girl is never bothered with foolish or meaningless compliments. Do understand the limitations of your position. A girl who is intrusive or officious will not succeed in the long run. Do be pleasant. Do master your work. Do everything thoroughly. Do leave your work behind you when working hours are done. Do strive in every way possible to be- come an all-round and intelligent wo- man. WHAT ONE MAN HAS DONE, The Remarkable Achievement of a Re- markable ratan—A Splenoid Example of what Untiring Devotion can do. For years Dr. J. S. Leonhardt, of Lin- coln, Neb , studied the problem of how best to prevent and cure disease. He was not satisfied with the methods and treatment in general use and after long study and much experiment he de- clared that: "The poisonous products of the fermentation and decomposition of undigested food absorbed by the system are the first cause of almost. every disease." FIe knew that all the medicines pre- scribed for the stomach and bowels con- tained resinous properties which left be- hind them a dried up condition of the mucous membrane lining of the stomach and bowels—this after effect invariably resulting in Chronic Complaints. Dr. Leonhardt therefore determined that to correct disorders of the stomach and bowels he must produce an effective medicine containing absolutely no resin- ous subetanoes such as are found in the ordinary pill. He succeeded and the result he called Anti -Pill, Dr. Leonhardt's Anti -Pill will cure permanently any case of Dyspepsia or other stomach Trouble, Biliousness, or Constipation. 60e a bottle.

In every paper we pica up we're sure to find a lot of silly gush about the man who is behind. , There is the roan behind the counter and the man behind the gun, the man behind the buzz saw, and tbe man behind his son, the man behind in rent, the man behind the times, the man behind the .plow shares, and the man behind the fence, and the man behind the whistle and the man behind the bars, the ratan behind the kodak, and the man behind the cars, and the man behind the fists, and everything behind nothing is entered on this list. But they've skipped another fellow, of whom nothing has been said—the fellow who is even or a little way ahead; who always pays for what he gets, whose bill is a1wa; s signed—he's a blatnod sight more im portant than the man who is behind. All we editors and merchants and tl:e whole commercial clan, are indebted for existence to this honest noble man. He keeps as all in business and his town is never dead; and so I take my hat oil to the man who is ahead,—with his sub- scription to the TIMES. Bow it Spreads The first package of Dr, Leonhardt's Hem-Roid (the infallible Pile ogre) that was put out went to a small town in NH- braska. It cured a case of Piles that was con- sidered hopeless. The news spread and although this was only two years ago the demand prompted Dr. J. S. Leonhardt, of Liu - coin, Neb., the discoverer, to prepare it for general use. Now it is being sent to all parts of the world. It will cure any Case of Piles. There is a month's treat- ment in each box. Sold for $1.00, with absolute guaran- tee.

Much less fruit is being shipped from. the Niagara peninsula this season than a year ago, plums particularly being a poor crop. Mr. and Mrs. Dover of Stayner, au elderly topple, were struck by a train at Second street crossing near Markham, thrown out of their buggy and severely bruised. —There passed away at Walkerton, on the 16th inst., at the advanced age of 87, one of the oldest residents of the County of 13ruce. Mr. James Johnston came to Canada in 1849, and settled in Kincardine in 1854. He was for over fifty years au elder in the Presbyterian Church, and always took a great iuterest in every moral reform. Deceased was father of Rev. Dr. Johnston, of Mon- treal, and late of London. THAT'S .THE SPOT! Right in the small of the back. Do you ever get a pain there? if so. do you know what It means?

Her choice of songs in the concert room al- ternates between hackneyed favorites and absolutely worthless novelties. Alone among the great executants, the prima donna has been conspicuous for her abstinence from any efforts to achieve distinction as a composer. Handel had a short way with the prima donna, and threatened to throw her out of the window if she would not sing what he had written for her. Wagner went further, and refused to write for the prima donna at all. and Verdi, in "Falstaff," did throw her out of the window and gave the leading part to a baritone. To the music lover the prima donna is a nuisance, and a very expenstve one.—"Diversions of a Music Lover." Millepede. The little creature which possesses the distinction of having more legs than any other animal is that which belongs to the family of insects known es millepeds, or thousand footed. There are several different species of these, but they ell possess thr common char- acteristic of having se,;monted bodies, each segment of which is provided with its own pair of feet. These are set so closely along the body as to re- semble hairs, and when they move one after another with perfect regularity the effect is precisely the same on a small scale as that of n field of oats undulating under the influence of the wind. Some species of millepeds have as many as 350 separate and distinct legs. They are all perfectly Harmless, unlike the ceutipeds, which frequently have the power of inflicting poisonous wounds. The Name of Sully Lnnn. Every one knows what a Sally Lunn is, but few people have any idea how this particularly nice kind of tea cake got its name. Sally Lunn .was a Bath celebrity, who kept a cake shop, which was a favorite resort of both youth and age in the old west country town. Sally orginally carried out her cakes, morning and evening, in a basket with a white cover. Later on her small shop in Lilliput alley became a favorite haunt, and Delmer, a baker and musi- cian, seeing that it was a very good thing, bought the business, composed a song and set it to music. This song became a popular street ditty, barrows were used to distribute the cakes, and Delmer finally retired on the profits of the business. Disraeli's Devoted Wife. On the way down to Hatfield Mrs. Disraeli had a fall on the premises of a dealer in marble and cut her face most severely. When she reached her desti- nation she took her hostess aside and said: "My husband is preparing a great speech. If he finds out that I have had this accident he will be quite upset. I want you take me straight up to my room and say I've a headache. He has lost his eyeglass, and if you put me a long way from him at dinner he will never see what condition I am in." The plan answered admirably, and Disraeli did not find out what had happened for two days.—Diary of Sir Mountstuart Grant Duff. Imperative. "And when we're married," he said, "we'll have to take a nice little flat up town somewhere." "Oh, no, Henry," she replied, "we'll simply have to live somewhere in the country, because I'm sure one of our wedding presents will be a lawn mow- er. Mrs. Subbubs as much as told me she was going to give us one." Cut Rates. Patient (regarding his lacerated face in the mirror)—You surely are net go- ing to charge me full price for that shave?
