PURE RED BLOOD MUTUAL LIFE OF CANADA.
Is Necessary to Health, Strength and
Happiness.
Pure, rich, red blood is what is need-
ed by every woman, young or old. Thin
weak, watery blood is the cause of all
the headaches and 'backaches, and side -
aches -all the weakness and weariness,
all the dizziness and despondency, all
the nervousness and fainting spells that
afflict girls and women. The only thing
that can help you is Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills. These pills make new, rich, red
blood, that gives new life and strength to
every organ of the body. In this way
they make pale, feeble girls develop in-
to healthy happy women, and for the
same reason bring ease and comfort, and
regularity to women at all ages of life.
Miss J. Dietrioh, St. Clements, .Qua , is
one of the many thousands made well
and happy through the use of Dr. Wil-
liams' Pink Pills. She says: -';t tried
ing to
anis' Pink
alpitation of

pelts. I had no
I, pale and dis-
au the use of Dr.
Williams' Piuk s. Six boxes of these
pills have made me feel like an altogether
different person, and have given me new
health and strength."
Rich, red blood is the true secret of
health and strength, and it is simply be-
cause Dr. Willihms' Piuk Pills make
new, pure blood, that they cure such
troubles as anaemia, loss of appetite, in-
digestion, neuralgia, rheumatism, St.
Vitus dance, partial paralysis, kidney
troubles, and the special ailments that
only women -folks know. But yon must
get the genniae with the full name,
'Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale
People" on the wrapper around each
box. If in doubt, send to The Dr. Wil-
liams Medicine 0o., Brockville, Ont. and
the pills will be mailed at 50 cents a box,
or six boxes for $2.50.
Despite all the pledges of economy
made by them while in Opposition and
the charges of extravagenee made
against their political opponents, the
Proviucial Conservatives have started
out with a vaster expenditure than has
been, and more than double what it was
in the days of John Sandfield Macdon-
ald. -Brantford Expositor.
The Conservative papers should possess
their souls in patience about a leader for
the Liberal party in the Legislature.
That party has a good, live, fighting
leader in Hon. Geo. W. Ross, and if he
should through any circumstances lay
down the task, the party will find some
person to take it up. In the meantime
there is no competition for the position.
-Brookville Recorder.
The returns for the past season for the
output of grain from the west by lake

receipts of grain at Fort William and
Port Arthur for the six months of the
fiscal year of the shipping season were
42,312,958 bushels, compared with 24,-
292,144 for the same time in the previous
year. The receipts of wheat alone were
31,091,193, compared with 23.831,383,
for 1905. Shipments of wheat were 34,-
794.323, as against 18,604,109 for the six
months last year. There are in storage

EXPERIMENTS WITH FARM
CROPS
Big Increase -New Business was
$6,014,576.
The 35th annual statement of the Mu-
tual Life Assurance Company of Can- '
ads shows that the amount of new busi-
ness written in 1905, namely, $6,014,576,
is the largest in the history of the com-
pany, and this is all Canadian business
except $65,000 written in Newfound-
land. "We are more strongly of opinion
now than ever before," the report reads,
"that good Canadian business is vastly
preferable to foreign, and that it can be
secured at much less cost. The recent
investigation in New York disclosed suf-
ficient evidence of this, and one of the
reforms now being introduced is the dis-
continuance of such business in many
countries." The company's income last
year approached closely to two million _
dollars, and the following figures in re-
gard to income describe plainly the
growth of the company: -1875, total in-
come, $29,593; 1885, $270,697; 1895,
$735,079; 1005, $1,955,058. With regard
to the payments to polioyholders, the
mortality for the year was again ex-
ceediugly favorable, being only 40 per.
cent. of the amount expected. The
company has been able to continue the
distribution of surplus to policyholders
upon the same scale as in past years, the
amount paid last year being $87,927 and
the amount added to the general surplus
was $179,928. In regard to the assets,
these consist almost entirely of mort-
gages on real estate, municipal deben-
tures, bonds and loans on the company's
policies. The company has never had
any investment of a speculative nature.
"We have never suffered the loss of one
cent on our bonds," said the President,
Mr. Robert Melvin, is moving the adop-
tion of the report, "and we have not a
single investment of this kind to -day that
is not worth all that it cost, while the
majority have appreoiated considerably
in value."
Mr. Abner Cosens, Wingham, is the
district agent for the popular and pro-
gressive company.
The members of the Ontario Agricul-
tural and Experimental Union are pleas-
ed to state that for 1906 they are prepar-
ed to distribute into every township of
Ontario, material for experiments with
fodder crops, roots, grains, grasses, clov-
ers, and fertilizers. Upwards of 1,600
varieties of farm crops have been tested
in the Experimental Department of the
Ontario Agricnitaral College, Guelph,
for at least five years in succession.
These consist of nearly all the Canadian
sorts and several hundred new varieties,
some of which have done exceedingly
well in the carefully conducted experi-
ments at the College and are now being
distributed free of charge for co-opera-
tive experiments throughout Ontario.
The following is the list of co-operative
experiments in agricnitnre for 1906:

any.
Good short -keep feeders were in good
demand and firm at $4 25 C. $4.60

The New County Valuation
County Clerk Lane has made out the
following statement for reference, and
though they are given as approximate
they are practically correct:
County rate raised last year, $61,272.-
45. on an equalization of $82,301,290, by
a rate of 1 9.10 mill on the dollar.
Equalization reported by the valua-
tors, $42,501,460: a rate of 1 3.7 mills on
this will raise $60,716.28, really the same

POINTERS FOR RUBBER BUYERS
An up•to•date shoe dealer is usually a good rubber judge -he is
quick to discern the comparative points of excellence that pass
unnoticed by the ordinary man.
Many of the largest merchants have stocked exclusively
with Merchants Rubbers. 'They know that the high grade
materials used, the exclusive methods employed and general
care exercised in their manufacture mean increased wear
and pleased customers.
This fact is a good guide to the ordinary ba . .
Merchants Rubbers have the fit, a -, ap-
pearance and wearing qualities that • - nnot be
obtained in any other brand of
rs.
If your Shoe • an deem' sell them let
