Nov. 28. 1007. NOTES AND COMMENTS. Wednesday of last we k was Sir Wilfrid Laurier's 66th birthday. Sir Wilfrid is in the best of health and spirits and celebrated tate day busily at work in hie ofb,^.e at Ottawa. Canadians generally will with Canada's Premier many happy returns of the day. There was a net decrease in the num- ber of homestead eutties made in Sep• tember, 1007, compared with September, 1%06 Of 200 of a total of Ott made in September, 1907, by persons coming from the United States, there were 174 from North Dakota, 116 from Minnesota, 30 from Kansas. 33 from South Dakota, 30, each, from Washington and Wyom- ing, 29 from Michigan and 25 from Illinois. The total amount of the premiums paid for fire insurance to the stock com- panies doing business in 1906 in Canada was $14,687,965. The retnans of mutual eompauies are not gtvea in the report of the Superintendent ot Insurance, but may be fairly estimated at about half as much more, making the grass total paid out during the year in Canada a4 about twenty-two million dellaee. The total amount paid out to Life I &manes Companies, both mutual sad steak cam- panies, in 1906 was $22,3tw,4 et. Tile annual cost of fire and life icsaratee may therefore be taken to he nearly equal. The names of M. G Cameran, M. P. P., Wm. Proudfoot and J. T. Carrie, Warden of the County are menti; awed in oanuectiOn with the nomination for the Legislature for West Heron. We will not venture a guess as to who will be the man. Mr. Cameron has been the repreeentative for some years, and we understand bas expressed himself as wishing to retire at the end of the term of the present parliament. Messrs Carrie and Proudfoot are both good men and would represent the riding with credit to the people of West Huron, and should either of them receive thenomin- ation we believe West Heron can be kept in the Liberal column. The annonncemeat came from Ottawa on Friday ]act that Arch. Campbell, M P., for Centre York; N. A Belmont, M. P., far Ottawa, and D, Derbyshire, ex -M. P. for Brockville bad been appointed to the Senate to ;ell the Ontario vanoanoiea. The TIMES has, and ie still of the opinion, that the Senate should be abolished. There is no good reaeon why it should exist. If not abolished, why not have it reduced in numbers and let the members thereof be elected by the people in the same manner as for the Commons. Each member could represent a 'larger elec- toriai district. We do not approve of the appointing men who are already members of Parliament. thus leaving vacancies, causing bye-electiene, which cost money. The Senate ie a large bill of expenso which the people of Canada Mild very well afford to cut ont. ing $90,000.000. At the end of the Con. servative administration they were $02,000.000 deeper ia debt than whet) they started, andafter eleven year& of Liberal tole there is no appreciable addition to the public debt, but a very substantial anrplue, greater in automat than the Oonservativee expended on. public works in eleven yeare by $10,- 000,000. tetanus. The last meeting of the Townehip Connoil for this year will b9 held ou December 16th. Tex Collector Proctor turned in $2 300 to Treaenrer Brandon ae the resale of hie first round of notification of this year's taxes, There is aver $16,000 to collect. The Cole Drain, which starts on lot 7, North half, con. 7 and empties into the river Maitland on the Arm- strong farm, 6th line, and ',shone length is 0,370 yards, has bion let at 22 cents a yard, to Messrs. McQuade & Matthews Total expense of drain will run about •:""1400. The work will not be completed mill next year. Robert C Rogerson died at his home, 17 Cowden Place, Jamestown, N. Y., on Thursday, November 14th, 1907, at 1 a, m., at the advanced age of almost 90 years. He wee boru in York, England; came to America about the year 1854 and lived in the vicinity of Blyth, Ont., until the year 1800, when ' he followed hie eons to Jamestown, N. Y. Wednesday morning of last week. at 9 o'clock, Joseph Long, a well known resident of con. 11, Gray, and Mise Kate, daughter of Thos. Russell, of the filth line, Morrie, were united in marriage in the R 0. church, Blyth, by Rev. Fr. Hanlon, of Clinton. The bride ware a becoming coatnme of blue. *ntee Harriett McCaughy presided at the organ. Mr. and Mrs. Long will make their home on the groom's farm, Ease of Cranbrook.

The Conservatives often claim that while in office they expended. =Ore in pnblie works than the Liberals in the same length of time. Let ns examine the figures. For the eleven years pre- vious to 1896,, when they went out of office, the Conservatives spent $80,000- 000 on capital account, and to their everlasting discredit be it known, that they borrowed $62,000,000 of this, that is, they went in debt for public improve - meats. During the plat eleven years the Liberals have spent $127 003,000 on capital account, and instead of going into debt have accuinnleted a surplus exceed - My Hair is Extra Long Peed your hair; nourish it; give h something to live on.

THE WINGU401 TIIKF4S, NOVEMBER 28, 1907 GOOD BLOOD FOR SAO. That is What Dr, Wflliarns' Pink Pills for Pate People Always Give- They Never Fain Good blood is the one thing necessary for perfect health, If the blood is good disease cannot exist -if it is bad disease is boned to appear.

I was in despair and decided it was useless to spend any more money on doctors. One day my husband urged me to try Dr. Williams' Pink P1lls. After a few weeks use of the Polis I was convinced Chet I had found the right medicine. I took twelve boxes and they completely oared me, and 1 am now in excellent health.

Toronto, Nov. 26th. -At the City Cattle Market the run of stock to -day was 53 cars, with 945 head of cattle, 1,560 sheep, 200 hogs and 131 oclves. Trade was brisker at the City Cattle Market to -day than it has been of late, in part owing to a light run. The demand was chiefly for good butcher cattle, and for the right kind prices were, if anything a little firmer, one dealer giving it as his opinion that there was a difference of ten to fif- teen cents higher than last week. This however, would be only on the best butcher cattle. On the lower grades prices were not quotably any higher but there was a steadier tone to the market generally, and everything was cleaned out in good time.
