MANY DON'T KNOW
HEART AFFECTED.
More People Than are Aware of it
Have Heart Disease,
"If examinations were made of every-
Pim,
veryPita, people would be surprised at the num-
ber of persons walking about suffering from
heart disease."
This startling statement was made, by a
doctor at a recent inquest. "I should riot
like to say that heart disease is as common
Sts this would imply," staid the expert,
"but I am sure that the number of persons
going} about with weak hearts must be eery
large.
"Hundreds of people go about their daily
work on the verge of death, and yet do not
know it. It is only when the shock comes
that kills them that the unsuspected weak-
ness of the heart is made apparent."
"But undoubtedly heart weaknees, not
disease, is mere prevalent nowadays. 11
Should think that the stress of living, the
wear and rush of modern business life,
have a lot to do with heart trouble."
There is no doubt but that this is correct,
and we would strongly advise any ono
Suffering in any way from heart trouble to
try a. course of MILBURN'S HEART

NOTES AND COMMENTS
In a report on the cheese industry of
Canada, based on the examination of
237 samples collected by officials of the
Dominion Inland Revenue Department
throughout Canada, it is stated that
only two samples of skim milk cheese
were found, which would indicate that
sale of this product is relatively unim-
portant in Canada. In commenting on
this foot the Dominion analyst oonsiders
this a very satisfactory state of things
since the demand for the cheap and in-
ferior articles in food is usually an in-
dication of poverty on the part of Pon.
stamens. Examination was also made
for fats other than butter fat, but no
foreign fat was found in any of them,
which is pretty conclusive evidence that
so Palled "filled" cheese is not known
in Canada.
In spite of gloomy predictions of the
Opposition that the removal of the duty
on binder twine would kill the Canadian
industry, Canadian manufacturers are
not only holding their own, but are
shipping largely_ to the United States,
Australia, Argentina, Russia, Ron -
Jeanie and Great Britain. Below is
given the progress of the export twine
industry for the last seven years:
Year. Tons.

1904 1,446
1905 1,841
1906 2,009
1907 4,109
1908 7,992
The product of the Canadian mills for
the season of 1908, exceeded 28,000,000
pounds.
A TARIFF LESSON.
"If some natural obstacle, such as a
mountain, divided Canada from the
United States, and it cost 835 to carry
each hundred dollars' worth of Ameri
eau goods sent to the United States
over that mountain, and $35 to Parry
seat hundred dollars' worth of Ameri-
esti fords this way, what would hap-
pen? The Governments of the two
o,nntries would at once devote thsir
energies, by blasting or tunnelling, to
the removal of the mountain. By
some means, no matter what the cost,
the obstacle to free intercourse would
be removed.
"Bat what do we find? We find
Is it worth while
to cure yourself?
This letter tens how one women got
rid of liver complaint, biliousness,
and terrible sick headache.
Sickness is to some extent a habit.
This is espccialIy true of biliousness
and constipation. So long as you neglect
treatment, or merely use medicine to
move tfie bowels, the old trouble will
return again and again.
Mrs. Jas. Monteith, Saurin, Simcoe,
Co., Ont., writes: "I have used Dr.
Chase's Kidney -Liver ?ills for liver
complaint, biliousness and terrible sick
headaches and have found them the
most effective treatment I ever used.
They eleanso the system thoroughly, re-
mota the Canso of pains and eches and
make you feel fresh and strong again.
Dr. Chase's Kidney -Liver fills are also
excellent for stomach troubles."
Dr. Chase's Kidney -Liver ?ills have
* direct and apeeiile, action on the liver
and on this account thoroughly Cure
billiousnoss and constipation. Their ex-
ceptional merit has innde them known
in nearly every home and you can de-
pend eli them absolutely. One pill a

E'lmanson, Than 1k Co., Toronto,
that nrillione have been spent in
bridging the St. Lawrence and Nia-
gara, and in tunnelling beneath theeSt,
Glair, to the end that the flow of
Waffle backward and forward may be
faoiliated. Then, after having done
this, a paper wall, a tariff wall, has
been erected on both sides, and omoers
have been stationed on the Canadian
side to see that no Amerman goods
pass this way without first paying toll
to the extent of $35 on eaoh hundred,
and other officers have been stationed
on the American side to see that no
Canadian goods pass that way without
being similarly tolled.
"Of all the legislative follies the
world has witnessed there are few
which can snrpasa those of which the
Canadian and United States Govern-
ments have been guilty in regard to
trade relations between the two
countries." -Richard Stott, at Forest
Grange meeting.

One reason why the Mason and
Risch piano remains longest in tune.
ONE cause for a piano get-
ting out of tune is the bend
ing of the pins under the great
strain of the strings.
This happens oftenest in the
pianos which have the strings
attached high up on the pin giv-
ing the string a great leverage
on the pin.
In most makes of pianos the
strings must be attached high on
the pin because the pin -block is
covered by the iron plate which
neither the strings nor pins must
touch.
Ordinary p'ano with plate
covering pin -b oat. Note long
1•verage from A to B.
Mason a.nd Risch
The piano with a soul
Now the iron plate does not
cover the pin -block of the Mason
and Risch piano as the strings
are attached to thepins close
down to the pin -block where it
is solid as a rock and will not
bend.
To this system of con-
struction is due in part the
perfect standing in tune of
the instrument.

Salient Points in the Lesson for Sunday, Apr. 11,
Given in a Series of Questions by
Rev. Dr. Linseott.
(Registered in accerdanne with the Copyright Act. )
EASTER LESSON. I Cor. xv:12.28.
Now is Christ risen from the dead
and become the first fruits of them
that slept. I. Cor, xv:20.
Verses 12 -13 -Dons the doctrine of the
resurrection of the body, rest upon
revelation or upon reason?
Providing the soul is immortal is it,
or not, of material importance whether
the body is raised or not?
If there is no resurrection of the dead,
it follows as Paul here states, that
Christ is not risen; but is the converse
true, that if Obrist is reason then all
human beings will necessarily be rester-
eoted?
It seems that some in Corinth denied
the resurrection of the dead in the sense
that thane 18 no life after death, now if
that were true, then how much would
there be lett of Christianity?
What is the ptooees of reasoning
that demonstrates the fact of immor-
tality?
What is tin Scripture proof of life
after death?
Can you mention a single nation or
tribe of the past, or at the present,
who has not believed in immortality
in some shape?
Verses 14.17.-I1 there is no resur-
rootion of the dead, how would that
make their preaching vain, make our
faith vain, and make them false wit-
nesees?
Verses 18.19. -How to it that all men
instinotively bedews in the immortality
of their departed friends and expeot to
meet them again?
It was donbtlors trtte in Pantie day
that if there was no immortality Ohris-
thins were of all men roost miserable,
becanee, they were then despised, im-
prisoned and put to death; but is the
same true tee:lay? Is not Christ's re•
ligion now a grand thing for this world,
even if death did end all?
Verse 20. -What is the chief evidence
of the truth of Christianity?
What is the proof that Teens did
rise from the dead? (See Matt. xxvi:
16.18; Mark xvi:14; Luke xxlv:36 38;
John xx:4, 5, 14, 26; xxi:4; Acts i:3, 13,
30, 31; I Cor. xv:3 8,,.et seq )
Is the fact of the resnrreotion of Jesus
to bo proved by evadenoe, like any other
fact, and is there any other historic fact
better attested?
Why was it, when Jesus was cru-
cified that His disciples were a dis-
pirited band, having lost heart. and
going back to their former occupa-
tion, and what was It atterwards
that put new life into them, and
made them the most courageous men
that ever lived? (This question
must be answered in writing by
members of the club.)
What became the prominent theme of
their preaching?
Is it credible that such noble men,
who afterward laid down their liven for
the truth, would testify that they had
seen and tarred to Jesus after his death
if they had not seen him?
Verse 21 22. -Would there have been
natural death if there had been no
sin?
Would there have been an resurrec-
tion of the dead, if Jeans hed not been
rosurreoted?
Verses 23 28 -Was Christ the first
man to rise from the dead?
When will the general resurreotion
be?
Wilt Ohriet fl•ra!1,7 abolish death and
destroy sin?
Hes God pat rill the forces of nature
under the control of Jeans?

Mrs, Nellie Usher, of Ottawa, signed
a note for $2,500 along with her hus-
band in favor of the Banque Nationale.
Judgment was given against Mr. J. G,
Usher for the amount of the notes and
he left the city. Then the bank took
action against the wife to make her pay
the note, since she,had also signed it.
She refused, becanse she said she had
signed the note under instructious from
her husband. Sir William Milock
found that the wife could not be made
to pay the note she had signed in this
way. Since the wife did not, as a rule,
understand her husband's business, she
was apt to take hie advice entirely in
regard to signing notes and therefore if
she had no one else to advise her it was
not just that she should have to pay the
note.

His Experience With a Noicy and Per-
sistont Cuckoo Clock.
Wertz recently was presented with
au old fashioned clock. That evening
he hung it on his bedroom swill, wound
It up and after admiring it awhile
went to sleep. IIe was drifting into
very pleasant dreams when he was
startled.
"Coo -coo, coo -cool"
Wertz sat up with a start, but in an
instant recovered his wits and listened
to eight more coo -coos with a foolish
grin. Then he lay back and went to
sleep again.
Ile had got Into a fine dram by the
time the thing went off again. This
time ho didn't grin.
Wertz is a light sleeper, and, though
he tried to get used to the thing, he
gave up after the cuckoo had announc-
ed 2 o'clock and got up and stopped
the clock.
Next evening Wertz junior, who had
not seen the clock, went to look at it.
"Why, it's stopped," he said. "What
is wrong?"
Wertz senior stroked his chin.
"Maybe I didn't wind it this morn-
ing," he replied. "Ferd," he continued
generously, "if you will promise to
wind that clock every morning I'II let
you, have it for your room."
Wertz junior was delighted, and the
transfer was made.
At the breakfast table next morn-
ing the heir of the house of Wertz
looked tired and somewhat sheepish,
but offered no explanation. After con-
siderable general conversation his fa-
ther said:
"You look tired. How did you sleep
last night?"
Wertz junior yawned.
"By the hour," he answered. -Kan-

SAVED THE GIRL.
An Old Time Adventure With Solo-.
mon Island Cannibals.
One day on a Solomon beach a little
girl ran to me and, before I was aware
of it, placed my foot on her neck. One
knows what this means well enough.
In hot war it means that if a chief al-
lows his foot to rest on the defeated
one's neck the man's life is safe, but be
is a slave forever, rescue or no rescue.
I was puzzled at the child's action. It
was soon explained. Shortly afterward
down came a lot of villagers and in-
sisted on taking the youngster. I told
them what she had done. They said
they did not care. I-Ier mother was be-
ing cooked in the town, and the child
should go to the ovens with her.
"Never!” I said. "What! We, who
have eaten betel nut together many
times, to quarrel for a mere child to
whom I have granted life in your own
way!" I swore they should kill me
first. They replied:
"Oh, that is an easy thing to do"
A bold front was the only thing now.
Luckily I had my sixteen shooter.
Springing back and putting a mark on
the sand with my foot, I swore I would
shoot the first man who crossed it.
They knew I could answer for a dozen
of them or so, and, although clubs were
up and bows bent, they hesitated, as
well they might, and I knew I had
mastered them. Then one proposed I
should buy the child fairly. They'
eared not to fight a friend. To this I
at once agreed, and a muss was thus
avoided, and a mission as worth ten -
pence made me a slave owner. --

The Century Plant.
The century plant, so named because
of the popular idea that it blooms but
once in a hundred years, in one sense
makes good its name, for it blooms
only once, then dies. In the genial
climate of southern California it reach-
es maturity and blooms in fifteen or
twenty years, while in colder climates
the period may range from forty to
fifty years. There are many species of
the agave family native to northern
Mexico, where it is called the maguey.
The plant furnishes "pulque," the na-
tional drink of Mexico. At the time of
blooming the plant throws up a single
stock of rapid growth to the height of
twelve to twenty feet, from which the
tassel -like flowers sprout forth. This
great flower stalk draws all the sap
and vigor from the body of the plant,
which soon withers and dies.
Apt Pupil,
Captain Jones (giving a short lec-
ture to the recruits of his company on
their demeanor in public)- If a civilian
should make offensive remarks in a
public house and try to induce a quar-
rel the well conducted soldier should
drink up his beer and go quietly
away."
After his address Captain Jones
questioned his audience to ascertain
if they had comprehended his re-
marks.
"Note, Private Jenkins, what should
yon do if you were at an inn and a
civilian wanted to quarrel with you?"
"I should drink up his beer, sir, and
'ook it." -London Pick -Me -Up.
