(Teeswater News, Sept. 19 ) The Presbytery of Maitland held its quarterly session here on Tuesday after- noon. The meeting had been announce ed for the forenoon, but to hold it at that time was found impracticable on account of a number of delegates coming by the afte:goon train, 'Knott ohnroh being occupied by the Convention, ar- raugemente were made to hold the session of the Presbytery in the Methods ist church, the privilege of which was cheerfully given. It has been well said that nothing is so cheap as a newspaper, yet how few people stop to consider what the pro- duction of ren up-to-date journal costa. Featuresthat in the count) of a month run the expenses of a newspaper cffloe up to large sums are taken by the ave- rage reader as matter of course, and many appear be think that the few Dents they pay weekly for their paper covers the coat of production and leaves a goodly balance for the publisher. To give to the pnblio what in these days is oonaider- ed a live newspaper costs more than ever it did, and the cost ie oonstantly increas- ing. There are the paper, ink, telegraph, ' power, light and other bills to be met and salaries and wages to be paid, which in the course of a year amounts to a sum that would astonish those on the outside. It is therefore, little wonder that capital. ists seeking investment fight shy of the the newspaper field particularly when it is eo well filled as it is in moat Canadian towns and cities. Nor does the inorease in the cost of production in any way tend to rob the product of any of its features. Indeed the contrary is the fact, for never before has eo much enterprise been thrown in- to the newspaper industry as is the case today. Jno, Norris, who has been con- nected with the business departments of leading New York and Philadelphia newspapers for many years, and who may be regarded as an expert, seems, however. to fear that unless the steady inorease in cost comes to a speedy atop, what little money there is in the news- paper business mast soon disappear. His view of the situation is that the news- paper press of New York is confronted with a most serious menace, which is no less than an additional annual burden of $3,000, 000 in the expense account of the sixteen daily newspapers of that city. This includes $2,160,000 additional for white paper. $600,000 more for composi- tors' wages, an increase of $200,000 for sterootypers and of $100,000 for other labor. Mr. Norris believes that on such terms as these not more than four of the pay papers would be able to p y their way. The only way out of it he can see is for the papers to double the price, The immense sum of two and a half million dollars is annually paid ont by ons of these papers, the World for labor alone, or $50,000 weekly, no less than 1,000 of the men on its pay roll re- ceiving over $1,200 a year. From the sale of that paper the news vendors make an annual profit of one and a half milli- on dollars, the smallest portion of the returns going to swell the company's receipts. Mr. Norris, estimate of inorease in the Dost of white paper le pbssibly based on the assumption that agitation in Canada will result in the Dominion Government placing export duty on spruce logs or prohibiting their export and that as the United States supply is said to be rapidly vaniebing, American paper makers will soon be dependent on Canada for their raw material if indeed, the newspapers ate not obliged to rely on Canadian mills for their paper. The Canadian Grocer reports that the Berlin auger faotoory has onlyabout 3,200 aores in beets this year, This is eoine 1,800 less than the factory should have had for a full year. It an arrange- ment had not been made under which the factory Can bring in German raw sugar for refining purposes, this year's campaign would be a short one. Tells of Cure 30 Years of Piles The Presbyterial Union of Y. P. S. C. E. hell two sessions one in the afternoon and the other in the evening. Rev. L. Perrin, of Wroxeter, President of the Union, presided at both meetings. Owing to the meeting in the Methodist church, the attendanoe at the afternoon session was not so large as might be ex- pected but there was a splendid and appreciative attendance in the evening. The afternoon program consisted of devotional exeroisee, conducted by the president, a paper by Miss Alice L. Davies of Ethel, subject: "A 'Live En- deavor -What constitutes it?" An ad- dress by Rev. W. A. Bremner: How the Pastor May Help the Christian Endeavor; A .paper by Dr, Mitchell, Wroxeter on 'Enthusiasm'. (In the absence of Dr, Mitchell, Mr. Perrin read this paper) ; A paper by Miss Alice Little, Teeswater, "What does Christian En. deavor Mean?" Address by Rev. Mr. Craw: "The influence of the Study of Scripture Doctrine on the Formation of Oharaoter." The address and papers were, without exception, appropriate and good and each Idiscussion. was followed by a brief At the evening session Rev. L. Perrin again occupied the chair. Rev. Mr. Wishart read the secretary's report, and, in the absence of Rev. Mr. West, present- ed the report of the treasurer. Accord- ing to it the Union is in a good condition financially though the surplus is slightly less than a year ago. The election of officers for the coming year resulted as follows: -Pres. Rev. J. J. Hestia, Belgrave; Vice Pres. G. P. Duncan, Whitechurch; Rec. Seo'y Mies Alio Little, Teeswater; Corresponding See'y Rev, A. 0. Wishart, Brussels; Treas. Rev. W. 3. West, Blnevale, Counoillors- Rev. Louie Perrin, Wrox- eter; Miss Kate McDonald, Teeswater; Miss Jessie Barclay, Wingham; Miss Alice Davies, Ethel; Mr. P. McArthur, Brussels. The chief feature of the evening's program was an address by Rev. Alex, Ester, of Cook's Ohnrch, Toronto. Mr. Ester, who is a worthy successor of Mr. Patterson, ranks among the beat pulpit orators of the country, and as might be expected, his address was elo- quent and inspiring in a high degree. Other numbers an the evening's pro- gram were selections by the choir and solos by BLEB Zetta Fergueon and Miss Helen Little. Mr. G. A. Swayze, Copenhagen, Elgin Co., Ont., writes :--"I have been af- flicted with piles for more than thirty years and have tried. various remedies. in most eases with very unsatisfactory results, None of them effected a per- manent cure. Six months ago I decided to give Dr. Chase's Ointment a trial, and was surprised and delighted with the result. A few applications only were necessary, when the trouble disappeared, and there has been no return thus far. T don't much caro to have my name appear in print in connection with any patent medicine, still I would like to tell everyone who is afflicted as I was to try 1)r. Chase's Ointment, and if they 4o end don't find it to be ell that claimed for it I miss my guess. For many eaters I had severe itching on nig arm rind legs, eepecially during the winter months. The ointment drove it array like mettle." Pr.

Salt For Milch Cows. A supply of salt available whenever a cow wants it, is neceseary to maintain a high milk yield, Salt stimulates the appetite and assists digeetion and W. sianilation, which inoreases the flow of the flaida of the body. Salting feedfor or dairy cows once a week is not sufficient. It is a good plan to keep rack salt ander shelter where the cows can get it at will and then feed loose salt once a week in encu quantities as the cows will eat. Loose salt may be used exolnstvely if it can be sheltered from rain. Do not mix salt with feed, for frequently cows get more emit than they need, which will re- duce the flow. Cows having salt kept before them at all times in separate Dom- partmente will not eat too much. An over feed of salt, to a cow that has been deprived of it for sometime, aets like a poison and produces an irritation in the digestive organs which results in scour- ing, NEWSPAPER MAN'S POINT OF VIEW. A newspaper editor writes the follow- ing: The average merchant -not the big and dominating one, but the average one -knows more about the kind of lo- cation he should have, the kind of build- ing, the sort of fixtures, the grades and kinds of goods, the kind of clerks, the Bort of delivery system, the secrets of when and where and how to buy and the knack of really producing bargain offer• ipge, than he knows about the art of real and effective store advertising. He devotes two hours of his time to -day in closing a deal for wrapping P P er- snother hour to teaching boys or girI S how to wrap up packages -another hour to an inspection of newly arrived goods -takes a took at the counts -allows snbordinatee to take up his time with h such weighty questions as that of where to have the delivery horses shod -and finds himself "too busy" to prepare a really foroeful, human interest store advertisement. Of Course' "the average merchant" is not intentionally crippling his store -he simply allows a multitude of small things to shut out the impor- tance of the really vital things -the store publicity. Ile "believes in advertising*" but he does not see its rational part in the manage meat of hie store. He does not believe in it as he believes In polite clerks, in honest values, in fuel for the heating plant, in 580nre bake on his store doors. His "belief in advertising" is a little like his belief in polities' principles -.not an urgent, iHdiet nt e ory hour belief,1ef,to be practiced aggreseively and continuously, but a "belief, just the same. When this "average merchant" learns to "believe In advertising" in exactiv the Name Way that be believes in opening his store doors at an appointed time: when he believes it as an every -day elemental necessity in his bneiisess, and when nothing in connection with hits store'b management is more cleverly done than his 'advertising -then be will oeaee to be an "average ttiibi'ohant" and Will tenfold, join the ranks of exoeptione l encrohante, whose stores become 3ratittl ul in their $1bit1M,�13ralifN. The Good Layer. The hens that appear, to be the best layers have a kindly, business -like ap- pearance, with full, neatly turned heads and not thin, snake -like ones. The body, says the Inland Poultry Journal, is trim, not blocky, but with graceful lines indi- cating strength and activity. The legs are not too long or too short, but as a general rale proportipuate to the size of the body. The egg' laying competition has demonstrated that the good layer Li made a better layer by keeping only few birds together in a pen, Methsr six is the economical limit can only be determined by experience, but there i no doubt the number is aufliciently small to have a very good idea of th personal qualities of the indiividua members of the pen. In business when the Dost of plant, labor and other ex - pensee are considered, it may be bette to raise the number of pullets provide there is no male bird in the pen, an oare should be taken to have the nestin arrangements to suit ; and keep a look out for birds having the vicious habit o egg eating. With good pens furnishe with proper shade for the nests the eg eating habit is not often noticeable. Piles Make Life Wretched It is a mistake to imagine that th effects of piles are local, for, as a matte of fact, they sap the vitality of mind an body and slowly lead to the ruination o health. Dr. Ohase'e Ointment brings al most instant relief from the itohing burning, stinging sensations of piles and is a thorough and positive cure fo every form of this wretched, torturing and sometimes stubborn disease. Cheese and Soil Fertility. In answer to a correspondent Hoard' Dairyman deals with this subject a follows; A cowthatgives 4 000 and of it pounds m a year is perhaps a fair average. The. amount of milk contains nitrogen in th form of casein, which has a fertilizin value of over $4.00; that is, you wont have to pay that amount for the sam amount of nitrogen if you bought it i the fertilizer. If you made butter yo would send away only the butter fa which has no fertilizing value. B feeding the skim milk to calves or pig you retain at least 75 per Dent. on th farm in the form of manure. So it h been found that sections of conntr whore butter is made and young stook grown, Constantly inoreaaes in fertilit Sections where cheese is made or t milk is shipped out, gradually decrees in fertility. Some of the old cheer making sections of New York and Oh' will not produce to -day more than fif per cent. of the forage and grain the did fifty years ago. What has oanae this? We answer, constant condi away from the farm of nitrogen a phosphate and no adequate effort to p it back. Following on this policy the robbing of the soil of humus so cloy Will not grow.

Successful Experiments in Abati and Curing This Disease. Catarrh is an entirely unnecessary d ease and should not be tolerated for single day now that lyomei ie so gen ally known and has made so many par in Wingham and other towns. Until comparatively recent times c tarrh was thought to be a blood dimea and stomach dosing the only treatme Modern boience finally disproved this id of the douse of catarrh, and found th it was a germ; disease and, after ma experimente, the remedy was decided be Ilyomei. Hyomei medicates the air you breath it kills the catarrhal germs; it heals t smarting and raw membranes of t passages in the nose end throat; it our all oatatrhal trdeblee. As there is life and health In the air the motintain• tope Where the pine fore give Off their fragrant and healing h rans, so there is life and health breathing Hyolnei. here is no need of 'mitering from catarrh if the simple art natural treatment of Iiyomei is teed.

Ordersention OUTSIDE ADVERTISING BRILLIANT SEAMANSHIP. - How Crew of Wrecked Destroyer Were Saved, Details of the disaster to the do- stroyer Ariel, which was sunk during night manoeuvres off Malta, gathered: from those on board that vessel and her consort., the Bruizer, shed fresh,' light on the gallantry displayed on° that occasion. The night was piteb dark, and thele was a high wind and heavy sea, when, in pressing borne a night attack on the harbor, the Ariel ran at a speed of about 20 knots on the breakwater. She immediately fired rockets, and just sueceeded in pre- venting the Bruizer; which was next in the line, from running an top of her. The Ariel, with engines at full speed astern, backed off into deep n at`•'. and at once began to settle down by the head. In response to her signals for immediate help the Bruizer stood by her. In less than half an. hour the bridge, on which the 12 - pounder is mounted, was level with; the water, all the forward part being completely submerged, while the pro- pellers and rudders tvere in the air, Lieutenant Preston, o'f the Bruizer,. made several attempts to take her in tow, but she broke away every time. A Delicate Manoeuvre. He then distinguished himself by a fine feat of seamanship. Running round to the lee side of the Ariel, be- tween her and the rocks on which she was fn,st drifting, he tried to come alongside to take off her crew. Find- ing this impossible, as both vessels were rolling gunwale under, he swung his ship round strew towards the Ariel, worked himself by degrees, going al- ternately ahead and astern, until he was within touching distance of his consort, and more or less at right angles to her. So skilfully was this delicate manoeuvre performed that in spite of the heavy sea he kept his position until all the crew except the captain (Lieutenant Tufton) and the coxswain had leaped by twos and threes on board the Bruizer, By the time some 50 men had thus been taken off the Bruizer's bow was barely 70 yards from the rocks, and she had to nip out quickly to clear herself of imminent danger She had already re- ceived some damage " through the Ariel being flung against her. The dis- abled destroyer shortly afterwards drove ashore, when Lieutenant Tur- ton was rescued by some'nrtillerymen from the fort close by, who threw him a line. The coxswain, unfor- tunately, was too exhansted to help himself, and sank after ho had touch- ed the hands of his would-be res- rners. The salvage of the wreck, says the "Telegraph" correspondent, has been a good deal impeded by bad weather, but the dockyard authorities ni'e showing great energy in coping with what expert opinion regards as a difficult task. such ase teacherss insertion business advertisements any kind of an wanted, in any of the for �Torontoor ill eor other city papers, may be left at the Tirana office.

Mr. De Castro Blubb, coroner, held an inquest at Liskeard Guildhall on thirty-one gold coins, found buried iu Trembraze farm -yard, near the town. The coroner stated that no similar enquiry had been held in Cornwall for at least 100 years. If the jury found that the coins were treasure trove, lie said, they would be claimed by the Duchy of Cornwall, who, no doubt, would deal generously with the finder, as was the practice of the Crown. James Croker Govett, son of the owner of the farm, described how he found the coins while cleaning the farmyard. His mother's family, he said, had owned the farm for many years, and he produced a document dated July 13, 1745, relating to the finding of 5532 guineas in the floor of the barn by John Croker and Dorothy, his wife. Mr, Volk, jeweler of Liskeard, said many of the coins were rare. Eight were Portuguese milrels, dated 1682 to 1725. The remainder were English, the most ancient being three gold units, or 20s pieces, of James I. and Charles I., while the rest were guinea pieces dating from 1680 to 1725. The jury, of which the Mayor (AId. Bone) was foreman, found that the coins were treasure trove, and the coronet' handed them to the finder. Subsequently they were claimed by Alexander Webster, steward of the Duchy of Cornwall, and the •matter will be laid before the next meeting of the Duchy. Swinging in Mid•Air.
