Very often they thunk it is from so-called "I'o nale Disease.' There is leas female trouble. than they think. Women suffer from backache, sleeplessness, nervousness, irritability, and a dragging -down feeling in the loins. So do men, and they do not have "female trouble." Why, then, blame all your trouble to Tiernale Disease With healthy kidneys, few women trill ever lu4.ve "female disorders." The kidneys are so closely amneoted with all the internal organ*, that when the kidneys go wrong, everything hoes wrong, Much distress would be raved if omen would only take DO N'S KIDNEY PILLS it stated interviste.

Toronto Saturday Night tells the fol. lowing story:--tlolonel Hugh O1ark, M,P.P., sometimes gets off a joke that misses fire, owing to the seriousness of hie voice and manner. Riding on the train one day coming iuto Guelph Jnnu- tion the oondnotor entered the car and Galled ant: "Guelph Junction! Change car for this, that and £he other plane! Passengers for the north take the car ahead." Colonel Clark was sitting alongside a unions passenger, to whole he observed: . "Isn't that just like the Grand Trunk ! Doing everything on the cheap! Always trying to save money!. Imagine asking the passengers to take the ear ahead -why don't they haul it ahead themselves? They've got the engine there and conk do it in a minute. Welt, I'm not going to help." The other passenger looked at the Colonel. "Oh," he said, "yon didn't understand him. He doesn't mean that we're to get out and shove this car ahead. He meant that paseengees for the north must take the car ahead -must get up and walk into that front oar. I--I'lI show you.'

The Detroit Free Press reasons itself into the belief that the loss of San Fran- cisco is a gain because it will stimulate industry. If that be true, the more fires the better, and a society for the promo- tion of conflagrations would be in order. Yet the law calls the lighter'of a fire an incendiarist and sends him to peniten- tiary, It should rather thank him as 'a public benefactor, aeoordiug to the logic of the Free Press. -Windsor Record. Bystander of the Weekly Sun says: We are asked why a two-thirds major- ity shonldi be required for local option when for other measures a simple ma- jority suffices, The answer points to the the weakness of all sumptuary laws as they are called, extending the punish- ment of prime to practices which, though - they may be unwholesome, are not criminal. Experience coincides with common sense in proving that such laws will not work unless supported by an overwhelming force of publie opinion, whi]e their failure iessees the general re- spect for law and detracts from the force of self reform. So many statements have been made recently concerning the quality of the instruction furnished in Ontario solace's, that it is well to point out that educa- tionally the boys and girls oof Ontario are as well trained as those of any other country, and that they hold their own in competition with scholars trained else- where. Moreover, the Ontario educa- tional system has been largely copied by other countries in their education plans. The Whitney Government in all its proposed changes is not creating any higher standard of education, only for- mulating a change in policy. -St. Catharines Star -Journal. The conservation of theepublic inter• est in the production, distribution and cost of electric energy is the great pro- blem of the day, but this is not the only reason for making a bona fide effort to solve it this session. Its urgency is due to the fact that water power franchise of unknown but immense potentiality have been granted to private corporations without any adequate statutory control over the output of electric energy as to either distribution or cost. There is a good chance to assert that control with Cause of Constipation Tbile " is Nature's cathai- tic. So long as the liver sup- % plies a good flow of bile the food passes along' the alimentary canal and the 'waste matter is promptly removed front the body. Failure of the liver brings consti- pation, indigestion, clogging of the kidneys and poisoning of the whole system. Dr. Chase's Kidney -Liver Pills positively cure constipation by means of their direct and specific action on the liver, and this is the only way that a lasting cure for constipation can possibly be effected.

Dun & Co., were 71 in number and $612,274 in amount of de- faulted indebtedness, which is slightly less favorable, on the whole, than in the same month last year, bat below the normal monthly average. Manufactur- ing insolvencies were 14 in number and $397,608 in amount, against 16 last year for only $53,933. This difference was chiefly due to two large failures in the manufacture of clothing and furniture. Trading failures were 55 in number and $208,466 in amount, compared with 69 failures last year, involving $344,093. There were two other commercial fail- ures for $16,200, compared with three similar suspensions last year for $9,050. Commeroial insolvenoies during the month of April in the United States were 793 in number, and $8,059,649 in amount of defaulted liabilities. In the corresponding month last year there were 833 failures, involving $8,056,866. Although the aggregate loss for the month is about the same as in April, 1905. analysis of the returns mates a much more satisfactory exhibit for this year in strictly commercial channels. TUE WORST RIND. After Piles have existed for a long time and passed through different stages, the suffering is intense -pain, aching, throbbing, tumors form, filled to burst- ing with black blood, Symptoms indicating other troubles may appear to a thoroughly Pile -sick person. This is when Dr. Leonhardt's Hem- Roid, the only absolute Pile cure, brings the results that has made its fame. It will cure the most stubborn case in existence and a bonded guarantee to that effect goes with eaoh package. Hem -Raid is to be had for $1.00 at the drug store, or from The Wilson -Fyfe Company, Limited, Niagara Falls, Ont. We Ought to Live 140 Years. (London Truth.) "I see that Dr. Lase. a has been com- municating his ideas of longevity to the Academy of Medicine," says the Paris correspondent of Truth. "There are those of Flourens, who set them forth in his lectures at the Sorbonne; but FIonreus had not the same opportunities for basing his lec- tures on a broad foundation of statistics. Reasoning from analogy, he concluded that human beings ought to live five or six times longer than it took them to attain the fall adult state -that is to say from twenty to twenty-five years. "It takes a cat eighteen months to grow up, and the creature, if left to die a natarai death, does so at the age vary- ing from ten to twelve years, The dog takes two years, and Iives from twelve to fonrteen, the horse fire, and goes on to twenty-five or thirty. A well con- stituted human being ot'ght to live from 120 to 140 years, "In addition to the cases Of longevity cited by Flourens, Dr. Lasalle gives a long list. For instance: Peter Czortan, who diad recently at Temesvar, in Hun- gary, at the age of 183 years, and an old man who has just turned his 200th year in an asylum at Paisk. He buried his wife in his 133rd year. Would it not be well to send a scientific commission to Pinsk to investigate into this Methus- elah's claim to extraordinary longevity 7" TWENTY YERS AGS, (FTOin Tun WINGIIA1e TIMES of friday, inlay 7th, 1880•) NEIeHBORnoon NL'ws. M. Hawden has sold the north 50 acres. of his farm, adjoining the village of Teeswater, to Alex. M Kee for $4,000. One night recently ,a stable on the farm of Mr, Ellie, Morris, was destroyed by fire, and two cows, •a heifer and a yearling were burned,. R.

I know of oniy two really satisfaotory methods of preserving eggs; the one h' to preserve them in wnterglass for gen. eral purposes, the other is t0 preserve than by coating them with grim and packing them in bran eepeciaily for boiling. I do not know how it is pbs. bible to improve upon either of these methods. Were it not for the facet Of the egg chipping when they are boiled, it might be Said that the water -glut method id the beat, because, of eouree, yon eaunot preserve eggs by keeping them in a'solution of water.glaass. The gum would quickly turn sour, whereas the water -glees will keep wholesome for 1 years it need be. Some genius will. PERSONAL PARARGAPHS. Rev. G. C.

Until that appears let me counsel those who are interested in egg preserving to adhere closely to the two methods indicated. They are far better than the old-fashioned lime -water pre- servations, and as for the other ways, it is difficult to see how such methods as smearing with lard or butter, and things of that sort, can possibly be held in re- pute. -F.

While working one of the shapers at Soott & Ball's furniture factory, on Tuesday morning last, D. Kincaid had the thumb of the left hand pretty badly cut, and the greatest wonder is how it • was he did not lose the whole band. On Tuesday afternoon, while a num- ber of section men on the railway were riding on a jigger which was going at a good rate of speed, Mr. Becket, who lives just over the railway bridge, sad who was sitting in Wei front on the car, fell off, and the oar passed over him about the centre of his body, breaking three of his ribs and injuring his spine to a considerable extent. ADDITIONAL LOCAL. The whey of the Blnevale cheese face tory for this season has been sold to C. A, Soott, of this town, for $200. The new addition to Inglis & Co.'s woolen mill is now well under way, and will soon be completed and ready for 00- oupanoy. The addition will be of frame 22 x 40 feet and two storeys high. On Wednesday morning at 5.80 o'clock E. L. Dickinson, C. E. Williams and Jos. Hnrtibese started down the Mait- land in a canoe for Goderich, and after a very pleasant trip they reached their destination at 6 o'clock in the evening. The party returned home by train yester- day noon. . On Tuesday morning Robt. Orr, he of the sign of the bear, came near receiving a thorough tanning at Brenuen's tannery. Mr Orr is more accustomed to a dry goods store than a tannery. and when he saw an innocent looking vat covered with a treacherous velvety scum he did not experience any feeling of terror -that is until he stepped upon the velvety skarn as he woald upon a velvety carpet in the store. They succeeded in fishing him out in a few moments, but, still Bob thinks he has the toughest hide in town. NLARRIED- On the 3rd inst., by the Rev.

Gas had as touch difficulty in making ate way in New York city apparently, as did the steel framed skyeeraper, An each case it required a lean who bad the courage of his convletione to prove that 1t was safe, but when once It was shown that the benefits were greater than the dangers gas and sityscrapere took their places as necessities. In the case of the skyscraper the designer had to convince the owner, who had tie- • come somewhat fearful of the success of bis venture because of the cora- idents of his friends, by signing a lease for au office on the top floor for a long term of years. In the case of gas, although it .tad been used in Loudon and other American cities before it was introduced into New York, Same uel Leggett, the president of the come patty that proposed to bring the snuck feared illuminant into use here, bad to prove its harmlessness in his own house. This was in 1823. His heroism attracted a good deal of attention and proved to be a good ad- vertisement, for hundreds if not thou- sands of persons visited the house to see the illuminant which was said to be Ito much better than candles and fish oil lamps. The house was In the up- town fashionable quarter of the city, on Cherry hill, It was at 7 Cherry, street, only a few doors below the big, square Franklin house, in which Pres- ident Washington lived when NeW, York wits the capital, and near the cel- ebrated Cherry gardens. It was a nar- row, three story and attic brick struc- ture with two dormer windows. An abutment of the Brooklyn bridge now, occupies the site. Stories of the explosive character of gas had spread without the aid of a press r •gent, and persons hesitated about having the pipes run through their houses. They were williug to have some one else matte the experi- ment, however, and curler enough to visit the house of the venturesome one tie see what happened. For the time being all roads in the evening seemed to lead to Mr. Leggett's house. Groups gathered outside in the darkened street to witness the process of "lighting up.' Many a couple from the other fashion- able quarter, State street and the foot of Broadway, gave up the evening walk: along the Battery to wend their way up Pearl street in the moonlight to 7 Cherry street to see the novelty, There were eager visitors from surrounding 1 towns. Mr. Leggett was not averse to showing people clow mush better gas was than any other form of illuminant by taking them through , the house. This fact, becoming known through- out the city, added to the number of visitors, and not infrequently when 1 Mr. Leggett, basking in the light of no- toriety in his drawing room, saw faces peering in at him from the outer dark- ness he would go to the door and in- vite those without to come in.
