NOTES AND COMMENTS
The true principle of Itnpe,rial de-
fence, Lord Milner Bays, it to moue -
age et oh dominion to provide first for
the defence of its own soil, and all
Imperial interests there by its. own
;Wive force,
Sinoe the commencement of thin oes-
ltitru, nothing of a scandalous nature has
been charged against the Governmeut.
It is rarely that a new parliament meets
aithant many charges of political cor,
rnp$ion being preferred against the win.
ning side, This is a cireumstanoe which
'should be regarded as in favor of the
Government,
The attitude of the Opposition on the
Grand Trunk Peoiflo loan is on a par
With their attitude on the original bill.
They wanted the road built but they did
not agree with the polioy of the Gov-
ernment. They now want the loan to
be given but they don't agree with the
security offered. This is a paltry objec-
tion, The loan is guaranteed by the old
Grand Trunk Company and the surplus
of this company for several years past
would have been sufficient to have paid
the interest on the loan several times
over. The Western men are all in favor
of helping out the road which will find
traffi.o from the opening day.
The good citizen is always the
sonny -eider. If there are two sides to
be considered, he chooses and talks
about the better and brighter side.
He leaves his troubles at home if he
has had to bring them there. If his
brealsfnet has been unwisely chosen, he
goes down town by the book streets. If
he feels good nest day, ho walks three
blooke ou the main thoroughfare to
make up for it. And his smile leaves
its trail of radiance behind him that
does not fade with the day. Some time
we shall erect a monument to some
happy -hearted, laughter -loving, smiling•
soiled citizen, who never built any
great institutions or performed any
great deed of valor or made himself
famous by any not of courage or great-
ness of genius; and upon the pedestal of
the monument shall bo engraved the
enfiioient inscription, "He smiled!"
—Hamilton Spectator.
The T. Eaton Co., is the successful
tenderor for the publication of the new
Ontario readers, the contract to run for
10 years, Sir James Whitney has
issued a self -laudatory statement re•
garding the price obtained under the
contract which he claims to be lower
than, has ever been attained for a set of
readers. The pride is low indeed, but
not rroportionately lower than might he
attained for any produot under similar
conditions. Hitherto the publication
and distribution of school books has
been conducted on a ccmmeroial basis.
The change made now involves a very
different system. The Government
bears all the expenses of the preparation
of tho books, copyright, the work of
composition, electrotyping and supply-
ing the piatee and all other incidental
expenses, leaving nothing for the pub -

IMMIGRATION,
From a little book containing the lat-
est immigration statistics, it is seen
that things really did not begin to
move until after the last centavo so
that the whole boom will go to well
the population which will be ehown in
the census of 1911. In the year 1900-1
the immigration was only 49,14D. It
rose next year to 67,379, and reached
its summit in 1907$, when the figures
were 262,469. The next year there was
a falling oft, eleven months showing
only 130,444, which would mean about
142,000 tor the year. The total immi•
gration since 1901 is nearly 1,200,000.
The two years before the next census
should bring the total up to about
1,500,000. Making allowance for natural
increase, the census of 1911 will show
a papulation of considerably over seven
millions.
British immigration began to boom
in 1901.2 when there were 17,259 ar-
rivals, and reached its highest point
in 1907, when the number was 120,182,
as compared with 83,975 from the cons
tinent of Europe, and 58,312 from the
United States. The falling off in the
eleven months of 1908.9 was chiefly
in British and European immigration.
The American immigraiion was 50,650
for the eleven months, which was high.
er than either the British or Enropeau
immigration, and this yeas it is re-
ported that 70,000 Americans are com-
ing. The American stream varies
lees in volume than the others, the av-
erage for the /met few years being
a little less than 50,000 a year, Out of
239,771 who entered in five years, 155,-
388 were farmers or farm laborers.
While we are getting a mixed popu-
lation in the West, the proportion of
those who present no difficulty in the
way of assimilation is fairly maintain-
ed. In the banner year 1907-8 there
were 178,500 Britiehere and Amerioans,
as compared with 84,000 from the con-
tinent of Europe. In the last eleven
months there were nearly 100,000 Brit-
ishers and Americans, and not a third
as many from the continent of Europe.
There is also a very considerable ele-
ment of Oanadians from the older
Provinces, so that the assimilating
forces ought toff be,; strong enough for
the task set before them.

GROWING • BOYS
AND GROWING GIRLS
Need Ar. Williams' Pink Pills to
Give Them Health and Strength,
Growing boys as well as girls need
such a tonin as Dr. Williams' Pick
Pills to keep the blood rich, red and
pure and give them health and
strength, Dire. Edward Koch, post-
mistress at Prince's Lodge, N. S., tells
the great benefit her little gen has de-
rived from the nae of this world fano
one medioine. Mrs. gook says:—"My
little son, Reginald, had bean troubled
with anaemia almost since birth. Ra
was alwaye a siokly looking child with
no energy and little or no appetite. His
veins showed very plainly through his
skin and he had several serione attacks
of stomaoh and bowel trouble, and on
one occasion his life was diepaired of by
two doctors who were at riding him.

and a misery to . msel , Having read
and heard so m ' o . of Dr, Williams'
Pink Pills I deter . tied to try them in
hie case, and atter giving them to him
for a couple of months they certainly
worked wonders with him. Today he
is fat and healthy looking; he has a
hearty appetite, is able to play like other
children, and is bright and energetic,
instead of dull and listless as he used to
be. Dr. Williams' Pink Pi118 have
changed my puny, sickly child into a
rugged, hearty boy."
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cured this
siokly boy because they went down to
the root of the trouble in able blood.
That is why they never fail;, Bad
blood is the clause of all common die -
tomes like anaemia, (bloodlessness) ecz-
ema, 'statement, headaobes, indigestion,
kidney trouble, neuralgia, rheumatism
and the special ailments that only grow-
ing girls and womenfolk know. Dr.

The military department orders that
this summer no liquor is to be .old at
oamps of instruotions. This is an im-
portant concession to the temperance
people and Domes as a result of the
laxity of canteen managers in not con-
fining the sale of beer striotly to the
soldiers in camp.
Does Your Hide Ache?
When the first symptoms appear, rub
with Nerviline—rub it in deeply. It
penetrates to the muscles and chords
that are sore—takes away stiffness—re-
moves all strain and inflammation. If
the condition is ohronic, put a Nerviline
Porous Plaster on the affeoted spot.
This draws out any virus or neuralgic
irritation, restores the tissue to their
wonted healthiness, permanently cures
any weakness or tendenoy to pain.
Nerviline Plasters absorb all the
deleterious secretions through the re-
laxed pores and when used along with
Nerviline itself, every mnsoular pain or
ache must go.
Live Stock Markets.
Toronto, April 27.—City Cattle Mar-
ket.—Market up 10o to 15o to -day above
yesterday's market. The receipts were
very light, contrary to the calculations
of those buyers who banked on heavier
receipts and easier prides. There are
some very good quality oattle in just
now, and this compensates somewhat
for the smaller numbers, and con-
sequently high prices now going. "I do
not see how prices oan go any higher
than they are now," said a well known
dealer this morning, "unless the prioes
for butchers' meat gods up higher, too."
Opinions differ ns to the near future of
the market, some holding that there are
plenty of cattle in the country, while
others say they are very scarce. It is
oertain that drovers are paying very
high prides in the country, and until
the "graesers" begin to comp in it does
not look mnoh like lower prices.
The run was 50 loads, with 736 head
of (rattle, 200 sheep and Iambs, 400 hogs,
and 470 calves.
