For the not time in years the month- ly returns of the customs revenue of the Dominion shows for December last a decrease. The decrease tor December as compared with December of last year is only a small one, $91.887, but con - treated with 'large increases of preceding mt uths, it indicative of the way in which the merchants of Canada and others are tomporarily restricting their purchase from. abroad consequent upon. the prevailing financial stringency. For the month the total customs revenue was $4,093,066. For the first nine months of the present fiscal year the total customs revenue has been $45,593,- .,858, an increase of $8,983,805, as com- pared with the correeponding period of last year. • (TWENTY 9EABS A60' MUTUAL INSURANCE COMPANIES.

Ae a oabinet minister, Mr. Foster abjur- ed hie independence and his prohibition principles, became an out -and -oat Tory, and declared in the House that he had voted for prohibit on in a "moment of weakness.", Sir Jolla had made no rale- take in his estimate of the man. Dust laden with the germs of con - gumption or other disease is inhaled by all who use the streets, but disease 1s not developed unless the germs find conditions suitable for their lodgement and growth. With people having catarrh there is an ideal culture medium for these germs as the irritated membrane and weakened tisanes is a hot -bed where germs most thrive slid multiply until they are num- erous and active. It you have catarrh, you should nee the easiest, simplest and quiokest pure, the direct method of Hyomei, whose wonderful medicated air is taken in with the air you breathe, directly following and destroying all germs that have been inhaled, repairing any damage they may have worked and so healing and vital- izing the tissues as to render catarrh and germ infection no longer possible. The unusual way in whioh Hyomei is sold should dispel f all doubt as to its curative properties, for Walton Me ib - ban offers to refund the price to anyone whom it fails to benefit. You do not risk a cent in toting the healing virtues of this breath of life, for with every $1.00 outfit Walton McKibben gives a guarantee to relieve catarrh or money refunded.

Macdonald, be (Mr. Tarte) sought to purify his party from the inside, Le Canadian, whioh be shad made famous, was taken -from him by a series of persecutions, and he was compelled to work at hack journalism at the absurdly low salary of $9 a week. On one occasion he said to the writer: "At this time I got a job at $9 a week, and had to move my wife and little ones outside of the city limits, so that we could live in a little house that my wife owned in her own right, which had a small garden attached. It was not much of a house, but it saved rent. The street vara passed near the house, but for several months. I walked three miles to the offi.oe and three miles back, day after day. Why? Because I did not have the mo- ney to spare to pay for the trip on the oars. I did not feel very bright as to the future, and I once told my wife that I would retire from journalism and politioe and devote myself to market gardening, in which I had done something ie my earlier days. That I am in politics fa be- muse my wife had more confidence in me than I had in myself. She was always cheerful and strong of heart for a little Woman, God bless her! and she indnoed me to keep on. When the tarn cit the tide came I knew that het judgment Was better than Mine." THE MAN WITH THE PAST. (Hamilton Times.) Hort. George E. Foster has seen many ups and downs since he Bret appeared in Hamilton some twenty-five years ago. His Mission here then was to epee& in favor of the Scott act, Which he did, we are told, at the rate of $10 per speech, paid him by thb temperance organization then run by Mr. D. B. Chisholm. He spent about a month in the city at that time, ape: king in opposition to E. King Dodds, who opposed the act, Mr. Foster then attitudinized as a Reformer. After the defeat of the sot,'lir, Fester left the pity, and a few months later Mr, Chis- holm disappeared.

The King of England's famous sur- geon, Sir Frederick Troves, has this to say t0 the rising generation. It Domes from one who knows. "Boys, don,$ bother about genius; and don't worry about being clever. Tract' rather to hard work, perseverance and determination. The beat motto for a long maroh is: 'Don't grumble, Plug on.' You hold your future in your hands. Never waver in this belief. Don't swagger. The boys who swagger, like the man who swaggers, has little else that he can do. He is a cheap•jaok, crying his own paltry wares. It is the empty tin that rattles most, Remember that the hard- est thing to acquire is the faculty of being unselfish.

Farm Wood Lots. Throughout o. very large portion of, the United States nearly every farms has a certain part of its area under. wood, either planted, as in regiotls' otherwise treeless, or of natural growth. The vain Of this wooded portion, be- sides affording protection from the wind, is chiefly for fuel, fencing and' railroad tie8, with- some building ma- terial end atenial'end the wood needed for special uses about the fatm. Withont the wood lot the farm very often would be an unprofitable investment, because the, farmer could riot afford to buy the wood which now costs him very little except the Jabot of cutting and mo -ring it, but in the majority of cases this part of the farm is far less useful than it might easily be made. This is true because the farmer does not study Its productive eapaelty Yx he does that of. }tie fields and pafltures, and hence does' not make It yield as fully as he might, with little er no additional labor, if be went about it in the right way. -Gifford neho i'i f; Do it Now.
