It has been authoritatively stated et
Ottaw,s that a general a echos need not
be expected forst loast eighteen months.
Thie will be good news to the people
of the oouetry as o general eleotion
rather disturbs business,
Flop. A. G. Blair died suddenly at
Fredericton, N. B., on Friday evening
from heart -failure. Mr. Blair had been
active in politics eines 1878; was for
mime years Premier of New Bruuswiok
and from 189e to 1903 was Minister of
Railways and t anale in the Laurier
Government.
Mr. Joseph P. Downey, U. P. P. for
South Wellington, has vacated the
editorial chair of the Guelph Herald,
After holding the position for some years,
"Joe" is a clever speaker, an exceptional.
ly brilliant writer, and popular with all
classes. It is not known what he intends
to do in the future.
The Ontario GOverument has changed
its policy in regard to rural schools. In-
etead of saying to rural schools, "You
shall pay not Iess than a stated salary to
your teachers" it will endeavor to attain
the same end by an offer to pay from
the Provincial treasury 40 per cent. of
the salaries in excess of $300 and up to
$500 allowed rural school teachers.
Canadians are often reproaohed with
neglect or deficient appreciatioa of mi.
tive talent. At least one Canadian
author has no complaint. A United
States newspaper calls attention to the
fact that in Canada, with 3,000,000 Eng-
lislaspeaking people, more than 35,000
copies of Ralph Connor's "The Doctor"
have been circulated, an average of one
copy for every 100 persons. This is a
phenomenal record. Many Canadians
go to the United States to be nearer
their market, but it is not impossible to
And a market at home, A11 they have
to do is write as well as Relpk Connor!
The speech from the throne at the
opening of the Ontario Legislature out.
lined an interesting program of Govern-
ment legislation, though not so heavy
a one as that of the last seaston. One of
the moat important measures will em-
body amendments to the public school
ant of Iast year. These will make
changes in regard to the minimum sal.
cry sections. The principle of minimum
salaries will notbe abandoned,bnt clauses
will be adds t so that campnlsioa will
not be exercised iu school districts where
the minimum salary enactments really
work hardship on the ratepayers. The
grants from the Provincial treasury to
the paled° schools will be very largely
increased this yea", the state of the An -
snows fully warranting that step. The
working out of the minimum clauses
has given the Government some anxiety.
At a caucus of the Liberal members
of the Ontario Legislature held Friday
Mr. George Perry Graham, the member
for Brockville, and for a short time
Provincial Secretary in the Ross Ad-
ministration, was unanimously selected
as leader of tae Opposition for the pre
sent session. Mr. Graham is a news-
paper man, being editor of the Brock-
ville Recorder, He has been a member
of the Legislature sinea 1893. He is a
good man and a better choice could not
have boon made. Ile favors the calling
of a convention of Ontario -Liberals after
the session for the purpose of selecting
a permanent leader, In this we heart-
ily ag ea with him, and should he be the
choice of the eouvention, or who ever
May be the choice, the new leader will
then know that be has the hearty co-
operation of the Liberals of th Prov-
ince of Ontario.

Yoar eoribe read with much interest
the annual addressof Byron E Walker,
President of the Canadian Bank of
Commerce, as it appeared in last week's
issue of the Theis, especially when he
says, "That now la the time when every
prudent man will look well to his ex-
penditures and be careful about assum-
ing new obligations, as there is a heavy
strain on the money markets of the
world at the present time, whioh may
possibly be quite serious before the end
of the year."
One day last week, while Harold i'ar-
ker, woo is employed by Mr. W. J Cur-
rie, was banking a team of horses attach-
ed to a sleigh, out of the barn, the sleigh
ran against his leg and pat his knee out
of joint. Although Mr. Parker was not
aware at the time that the knee was out
of joint, had the injured member band-
aged, and suffered considerable pain. A
few days later, while gettinggniekly out
of a cutter, he alighted in such a manner
as to pat his knee in joint again, and
since then he is improving nicely.

Nothing Reached the Root of "tile
Troltble until Dr. W illitt,ms Pink
Pills Ware Used.
"I suffered almost untold agony from
rheumatism. For several weary months
I was -confined to bed. I had the best of
m.dioal treatment, but nothing seemed
to reaoh the root of the disease until I
need Dr, Williams Pink Pills, These
have completely restored my health."
Thie strong emphatic statement is made
by Mrs Edna Morrill, of Woodstock, N.
,a lady who had practically been given
up as inourable by dootors. She farther
says: "I suffered for over two years and
rheumatism seemed to be firmly implant-
ed in my system. " At the outset I was
able to attend Go my honsebold duties,
but at night I suffered the greatest pain.
I at once began to take medicine but my
condition actually grew worse. I -'as
attended by a skilful doctor bwas
ultimately forced to remain i• •ed, suf-
fering untold agony with ev.ry move-
ment. Finally the dootors ld me the

months I was perfectly well. For this

Who owns an EmpIQyec's Invention,
Many an inventor is not a mechanic
and Is not even sufficiently practical to
work out the details of an invention,
I so that it Is necessary for him to em-
ploy the skill of some one else actually
to construct the invention. A connplete
inventive aet consists of a mental eon -
9 ception of the invention, followed by a
reduction of the invention to practice,
If an employer forms a complete moi-
1
eni fal conception of the invention and
then bas his employee construct the
thing he has conceived, the employer
is regarded as the inventor. The re-
Iation of employer and employee ex-
' ists net only where a manufacturer
uses his own regularly employed me-
chanic, but where any inventor em-
ploy's any mechanle to reduce his hi-
, vention to practice. In this sense a
corporation employed to build a ma-
chine embodying an Invention would
be an employee as to the inventor. 1t
there arises any Controversy as to 'who
made the invention—that ls, as to
Whether the employer or the eneployeee
Made the invention—the presumption'
Is that the employer made it, and the
employee must sheet by convincing
proof that tie made the invention be-
fore his claim will be entertained.•—
