THURSDAY, OCTOBER 13th, 189S
NOTES AND COMMENTS.
Latest returns give the majority
against prohibition in Quebec at 91,295
thus making the total majority in the
Dominion 20,094 against prohibition
instead of 11,000 in favor, as given out
last week. Quebec evidently rules.
A Canadian, conscious of his conn -
try's defects, has still some reason to
believe that, on the whole, Canadians
are the best people and Canada is the
hest country in the world. At that,
Canada and C.inadians are both cap-
able , of decided improvement, but
certain Canadians are a little weary of
being told that they must alter their
national habits and characteristics ;
they must do this and so, or immi-
grants will shun their country. Let
them shun. Canada does not have to
beg for people to come and live here.
The duty of the hour is to develop tbe
resources which will give wealth to
the people who are here. Strangers
will come fast enough as soon as they
can make more money here than they
can elsewhere, and even if Canada
were shunned liyoutsiders,the country
would have no reason for despair if
Canadians could be kept in their own
country.

There will be trouble in the Yukon
so long as the chief officials are allow-
ed; Lt become . competitors with the
miners
whose -rights they -are supposed
to guard and judge. Liberal papers
could do their country a great service
if they would give Mr. Sifton distinct-
ly to understand that the party is not
prepared to accept responsibility for
the claim -jobbing of his officials in the
Yukon. The Liberal Government of
Ontario acts upon the theory that the
only way to keep clear of mining scan-
dals is to prohibit any official, high or
low, in the Crown Lands Department
from being directly or indirectly inter-
ested in any claims taken up under the
Ontario law. The Liberal Minister of
Mines in British Columbia has abso-
lutely deprived officials of his depart-
ment of their right to take up claims.
Is Mr. Sifton wiser than Mr. Hardy
of Ontario, or Mr. Hume of British
Columbia? Who is Mr. Sifton that he
should endanger the peace of the Coun-
try, and sacrifice the honor of his par-
ty by allowing his officials in the Yu-
kon the privilege of taking up claims
which is denied to public officials in
Ontario and British Columbia..

What has Michigan, Illinois, Ohio
or Wisconsin done for Canada that
Canada should offer the freedom of
her canals as a means of founding
the industry of building Lightdraught
warships in Detroit, Cleyeland, Mil-
waukee or Chicago. It is in the power
of the United States to denounce the
Rush Begot treaty with its severe re-
etrictions upon the number of British
and American war vessels to be main-
tained on the great lakes. The Rush -
Begot treaty is the least of the obsta-
cles to the establishment of the war-
ship building industry atUnitedStates
,.
g
s. With the "Rush .t3a of
lake .port r,
treaty out of the way, warships might
be built at Cleveland or Chicago, but
these war vessels would have to reach
the seaboard by freight train ifCanacla
did not concede the nee of her canals
to such craft. Why should Canada
rn a,ke any such concession? Canada
is not favorably interested in the es
tablishment of any new industry
in the Western States. It will
be remembered that the late John
Sandfielcd Macdonald answered a re-
quest that the Government should .do
Something for Strathx'oy.with .the ques-
tion. What has Strathroy done for us,
Canada's 'commissioners, when asked
to der something for the Western
Mates by' pernlittilig certain American
tier+ to establish yards for buildin

From the Midland Free Press.
Alexander McKenzie is one, of the
well known residents of Brookholm,
Ont., where he leas lived for many
years, A few years ago it was thought
tbat an early grave would be his on
the contrary however, he is now stout
and strong, and the story of his recov-
ery is on the lips of almost all the
citizens of that burgh. The writer,.
while visiting in the village, could -not
fail to hear of his recovery, and with
the reporter'sproverbial nose for uews
decided to put to the proof the gossip
Of the village, The reporter visited
Mr. McRenzie's home and was intro-
duced to Mrs, McKenzie. Enquiry
elicited the information that Mr. Mc-
Kenzie was not at home,but when in-
formed as to his mission the lady
freely consented to tell the reporter of
her husband's case. Her story runs
like this; "Mr. McKenzie is 40 years of
age, an engineer by profession. and is
now on a boat on the lakes. • . About
five years ago he began to feel
twiugs of rheumatism in different
parts of his body and limbs.
For a time he did not think
much of itbut it gradually.got worse
until the pain was such that he was
unable to work, and could not get rest
at nights. I would have to get up two
or • three times a night," said Mrs.
McKenzie to try and relieve this in-
tense suffering. Of course he consult-
ed a physician who pronounced his
trouble sciatic rheumatism. The doc-
tor did what he could for him, but
without giving any permanent relief.
This went on for several years some-
times he would be some better, and
try to work, then the trouble would
come on again and be as bad as ever.
He was pulled down from being a
stout man of 180 pounds to about 130,
ancl was so thin and miserable that all
who knew him thought it would be
only a matter of a short time until be
would be in his grave. For four years
did he thus drag along amiserable ex-
istence, until the beginning of 1897
some one recommended Dr. William's
Pink Pills. Tired of medicine, with
some reluctance he procured a box and
gave them a trial. Almost at once a
change was perceptible and as he kept
on taking them, the improvement
continued, and he was soon able to be
about. By the time he had taken
about a dozen x
o boxes he was as free from

is his faith in Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
that when he left home recently to go
up the lake for the summer, he took
three boxes with him as a preventative
against a possible recurrence of the

Before the advent of Diamond Dyes
the large via jority of otir school girls
had to content 'themselves
with two
dresses a year -ono each for summer
and winter. Now, with the magical
virtues of Diamond Dyes, mothers in
even very moderate circumstances are
enabled to send their girls to school as
neatly and stylishly dressed as the
daughters of well-to-do families.
A little feminine tact and skill that
all woolen possess,with the aid of a
tell cent package of Diamond Dyes,
will do wonders for our schoolgirls,
Every mother has put aside one op
more dresses too old and faded for
herself or daughters. It is a mistake
to imagine that these dresses are
Worthless. With a little simple work
in coloring and remaking you can
have reellyartistic effects and results,

Thin hair becomes thickhair,
