NOTES AND COMMENTS.
. e annual, meeting of the East Huron

awls, on Tuesday, Jape 4th. It is
'Ifikialy that a candidate for the Legisla-
' Imre will be selected at this meeting.
Not every boy can be a rich man or a
great man, but every boy can be a
gentleman. A boy with gentlemanly
m annexe, who ,te trusted and honest,
and does hie best every day, will gain
the atteution and confidence of men,
and will be given payiug and responsible
positions Ete soon as he is old enough to
SU there. Boys like to have fun and
a good time. It is right they should.
They will never be boys but once, but to
have fun is not altogether what they
are made for, Boys are of value ohiEflv
to make men good for something in the
world, Character, i ke a house, must
have the right kind of a foundation. The
foundation stones of a gool character
are reverence to God, respect and obedi-
ence to parents, deference for old people.
—Peterboro Examiner.
The report of the Georgian Bay Canal
Commiesioners will be presented to the
House of Comruons next session. It
will contain full detailed particulars ae
to the completed cost of the entire water-
wayeastasSeiniles in length, Nearly $600, -
..,ave been expended in securing for
the fitst time fall and accurate data
with respect to the cost or the great
project. The total cost of the canal, it
is estimated, will reach $105,000,000.
The report will deal not only with the
estimated cost, but will explain the en-
gineering problems to be encountered in
the oonstruotion. The figures cover a
roate from the Georgian Bay to Mont -
1 real, via the French raver, Lake Nipis-
sing and the Ostawa Rtvor. The report
will show that the plan is quite feasible,
the only point to be decided is as to
whether the expected results will justify
such an expenditure of public money.
It is expected that the canal will have a
continuous depth of twenty-one feet
during the period of navigation. Sir
Wilfrid Laurier, while in England re•
cently, expressed himself as in favor of
the construction of this canal.
Did you notice how they they reached
out for Your Uncle Sir William Mulock
when they got into real tronble in the
coal region in the West? They had to
get a Man whom the coal miners would
trust; and Sir William proved to be the
the man. AU of whish goes to show
that Sir William was not wasting his
time during those arduous and oft-
criticsed years when he was establishing
a Labour Department and workingin his
quiet way for the labouring man. It has
alwaysseemed to me to be a thousand
pities that Sir William was permitted to
retire from the Federal Government. It
may hive been tree that:his:health would
not permit him to go through all the
drudgery entailed in the management of
a department; but he certainly has had
enough health to play his part as mem-
ber of the Government and to exers an
influence upon the progressive policy of
his party. There are plenty of pretty
good departmental men in Parliament
who oonld have taken over the office;
but there was only ono Mulock who had
creative mind the daring optimism and
the confidence of the people.—Cauadian

A RHEUMATIC WRECK
TIIE WINGHAM TIM S, MAY 23, ,1907
After Hospital Treatment Failed Dr
Williams' Pink Pills Cured Him.
"I suffered the greatest agony from
rheumati tit. Leading physicians pre-
presertbed man' medicines,bat with un-
satisfactory results, I was compelled to.
go to an hospital, but even the treat-
ment there failed. Then I took Dr
Williams' Pink Pills and to -day I am a
well man."
These words were spoken by Clifford
L Forties when interviewed at his home
in Port Maitland, N. S. Mr. Forbes is
a fishermen and had always been vory
healthy, n til some three ago while
fishing off Newfoundland he 'was seized
with a very severe attack of rheumatism
In his own words he says: "I was fish-
ing on the Graud Banks in the spring of
1903 when I was stricken with rheuma-
tism, I could not work or sleep, and the
pain was almost unbearable. My vase
became so serious that I had to be land-
ed and for weeks I lay i i a Cape Breton
hospital as helpless as a cripple. The
hoe;pital doctors prescribed dliferent re•
mediae, but they did not cure me. I
then left the hospital and was then tak-
en home with rheumatism apparerfily
completely fastened upon me. Aly and
night I suffered. Nothing I d'd°for the
trouble seemed to help me and}I became
despondent and down•heart�dd. Then a
friend advised me to try r Williams'
Pink Pills. I was eke ical, but my
friend praised the pills s highly that I
determined to try the , with the re-
sult you see today. am fully cured
and nave not since h even a twinge of
that dreaded afilicti . I cannot say
too much in favor of Dr Williams' Pink
Pills and I urge all rheumatic sufferers
to try them."
Dr Williams' Pink Pills cured Mr.
Forbes because they struck straight at
the root and cause of his crippling rheu-
matism. They don't act on the bowels.
They do only one thing, but they do it
well—they actually make new blood.
In that way they root vont all common
blood diseases like anaemia, headaches
and backaches, rheumatism, sciatica,
neuralgia, and the secret ailments of
girls and women who suffer unspeakab-
ly when the richness and regularity of
their blood becomes disturbed. Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills aro sold by all
dealers in medicine, or sent by mail at
50 cents a box or six boxes for $2 50 by
writing The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co ,
Brookville, Ont,
Rural School Grant.
The grants to the Rural Public Schools
will, in future, be paid in two instal-
ments. The first instalment, paid some-
time after August let, will be made up
as follows: -1st, a grant of $50 to all
schools whose teacher holds ia First or
Second class certificate, and 2ad, a grant
of 40% on the amount of salary paid
over $300, for the year ending June 30th,
1907. Sehoo s having assistants will re-
ceive 40% on amount of salary paid over
$200 Thera are certain grants given to
Sohool Sections assessed at $60,000 or
less; but East Enron receives none of
these as the lowest assessed section is
No 11, Turnberry, $60 975 The highest
is No 1, Grey. $301,530. The second in.
stalment, paid sometime after December
1st, will be apportioned on the "the
basis of Equipment and accommoda-
tione," viz, 10% on valve of equipment
and at least $30, where the sonool ac-
commodations are graded I In some
sections (happily but two or three) where
the School accommodations are bad this
grout may fall as low as $5. The mums
thee lost will g,i to those schools where
an enlightened public opinion has en.
abled Trustees to keep school prem ses
and school houses up to the twentieth
century standard. All rural public and
separate schools of the Province will re-
ceive a grant of $5 on all library books
purchased between July 1st, 1906 and
,Taly let, 1907, provided no purchase is
lees than $10,

BRITANNIA RULES THE WAVES,
The British Admiralty is not satia&Ed
with its resent extraordinary deyelop-
ment of the torpedo boat destroyer. In
1893 its largest boat of this type was the
Havoc, of 240 tons, 3,500 bo:sepower,
and 26?.y knots. Five of the boats
authorized in 1905 6 are now taking the
water, the Ghurka and Afrldi having
recently been laneabed. These boats
are of 790 tons, 14,500 horsepower, and
have a speed of 33 knots, three more
than any of the destroyers owned by
Germany, France or the United
States, and aro 200 tons larger than the
largest foreign boat. Not content with
this leadership, the Admiralty has laid
down at Birenhead the Swift, a destroy-
er of 1,830 tons, 30,000 horsepower, with
the phenomenal speed of no less than 36
knots an hour. The Swift is to be an
ocean -cruising beat, with a great radi-
us of action; and having the pace to
overhaul any torpedo boat or destroyer,
cruiser or battleship. will truly become
"the eyes and ears of the fleet." Both
the Ghurka and the Swift have high
freeboards and are comfortable and liv-
able vessels, instead of racing machines
utterly exhaust their crews in a few
days. It ie now apparent that in the
eyes of the Admiralty the torpedo gun-
toat are failures, the former beoauee its
scouting powers were sacrificed to its
armament and the latter because it was
neither a scout nor a destroyer. Oaly
three 12•pounders will be carried by the
Ghurka, and four 25 pounders by the
Swift. A clearer example of the way
the British Admiralty leads the whole
world in naval construction and develop-
ment it would be hard to find. Every
other oonntry is an imitator, and at that
from three to five years behind.—New
York Post.

Toronto, May 21.—Receipts at the
city cattle market yesterday and today
consisted of 71 cars, containing 1,280
cattle, 425 sheep and lambs, 650 hogs
and 732 calves.
The market was inclined to be dull,
partly on account of the 'longshoremen's
strike now on in Moutreal. It is said
that over a thousand cattle from Toronto
are waiting in Montreal for ship room.
