MILLIONS NEEDED For Transportation Improvements on the Great Lakes Ottawa, July Al.—"The country is confronted," said Hon. F. D. Monk, Minister of Public Works, today, on his return from a trip up the great lakes, "with a system of commercial and industrial growth which calls for vigorous action as far as transporta- tion is concerned and the wise and judicious expenditure .of very large suers of money. if we are to keep abreast of the times." The Minister strongly emphasized the need of equipping the Canadian lake ports so as to enable them to hold their own in the enormously increas- ing Western traffic. Dealing with transportation facili- ties on the lakes, Mr. Monk poiotedout that appropriations amounted to 940,000,000 this year. This amount even, he said, was inadequate. "I was painfully impressed," he added, "as I proceeded to Thunder Bay, in Lake Superior, by the ad- vanced condition of American facilities as compared with our own in respect to port accommodation, aids to navi- gation, channels, lights, buoye, etc. All their national harbor improve- ments are carried out under the direction of the engineers of the war department. "At Port Arthur, Fort William, Midland, Hamilton, PortStanley. Port Burwell and Kingston I was amazed at our unpreparedness." LOST VITALITY Caused by Kidney, Stomach and Bowel Disorders. St. John, N.

Nothing will indur» a panic more quickly than a general tzar of one, es- pecially outspoken fear. This is true in business, ,,n crowded boats, in poorly constructed theatres; in fact wherever danger bats.Ncthing will make a man sick mote quickly than expecting to be sick; es- pecially if he tells all his friends. Nothing will do more to endanger the peace of the world than the loud - shouted predictions of the War -Will - Comers. it is the talk of war which brings war. Me one thing to he, and to keep, prepared for over. It is another thing to shout war from the - housetops and to fan flames of international hatted. Tbereare.ome who do it thoughtlessly. There are other busybodies who appear to do it deliberately, posing as the savioro of their c tuntry, and heed- less of the danger involved in their ut- terances. We question whether the great mase of people in any e,vilized countr•y— those upon whom the burden and suf- fering most heavily fall --are desirous of national conflict,.

One 1 thought It had too many advertise- ments in it. The other replied : "In my opinion the advertisements are far from being the least valuable part of it. i look tbem over carefullyand save at least five times the vaue of the paper each week through the busi- ness advantages i get from them." Said the other, „1 think you are right —I know that they pay me well and that it is not good taste to find fault with the ads. after all," Those men have tbe right idea of the matter. It pays men with a family to take the local paper for the sake of the adver- tisements if nothing more. And if business men fail to give farmers a chance to read ads. in the local paper they are blind to their own interests, to say the least of it. "You ower trade with me," said a business man to • prosperous fanner. "You have never invited me to your place of busi- ness and I never go where i am not in- vited ; I might not he welcome," was the reply.
