NEW TRADE AGREEMENT,
The provisions of the proposed trade
agreement between the United States
and Canada, were read in the house
of Commons on Thursday last, They
cover a large mtunber of national pro -
duets, anti the pleasure is too extensive
to discuss in full in the small space at
our disposal.
We are not aware that there was on
the part of the Canadian people any
particular desire for an agreement of
this kind, The Ottawa Free Press,
the Liberal newspaper of the capital
said recently;
"Oomparatively few people on
the Canadian side have shown any
particular desire for reciprocity."
The chief mover in the proposition
seems to have been President Tuft,
which is evidence sufficient to show
that the United States expects to be
the chief gainer. The President made
this plain in his message to Congress,
when he said ;—
"A far sighted policy requires
that if we can enlarge our supply
of natural resources, and especial-
ly of food products and the neces-
sities of life, without substantial
injury to any of our producing
and manufacturing classes, we
should do so now. We have on
the north of us a country con-
tiguous to ours for three thousand
miles, with natural resources of
the same character as ours, which
have not been drawn upon as ours
have been."
The following are the chief changes:
The duty is to be removed from cattle,
horses and mules, swine, sheep and
lambs, poultry dead and alive, wheat,
rice, cats, barley, buckwheat, beans,
dried peas, potatoes, butter, cheese,
milk, cream, eggs, hnney, fresh and
salted fish, vegetables, fresh fruit.
etc. In meats of various sorts, al
though the duties are not entirely
removed, there are reductions, while
flour will bear a duty of 50 cents per
barrel on both sides of the line, and
oatmeal 50 cents per 100 pounds,
Among miscellaneous articles other
than foodstuffs on which duties are
entirely removed by both countries
are hay, lumber, typesetting and
typecasting machines, cottonseed oil,
railroad ties, telegraph poles, etc.
Reductions are made in the agricul-
tural implement schedule, viz.—farm
waggons, harvesters and mowers, 22
per cent. ; plows harrows, drills, horse
rakes, cultivators, threshing machines.
hay -loaders, patent augers, feed -cut-
ters, grain -crushers, fanning mills and
farm or field rollers, 5 per cent re-
duction. The duty on coal is reduced
from 53 to 45 cts. per ton.
It is perhaps too soon to realize
to what extent this will affect
Canadian producers. Certainly, the
provisions of the agreement should be
thoroughly discussed and understood,
apart from partisan bias rand the
exigencies of politicians. Tho true
Canadian will do this, and if the
proposed treaty is to benefit Canada,
he will accept it ; if not, he will dis-
countenance it, and this too without
regard to his political affiliations,
The proposed agreement must pass
the Canadian Parliament, Of this
there is little doubt, with the strong
Liberal majority in the Commons and
Senate.' It must also receive the
approval of the United States Con-
gress ; of this there is some doubt, as
the present Congress has•only about
thirty days more of life,

Hit Very Hard.
The Clinton News Record says :—
"The district of which BritcefieId is
the centre has been hard hit by the
failure of the Farmers' Bank. There
are many depositors, the largest sin-
gle amount being $11,500 to the credit
of the Swan family. Of this, one
thousand was banked by Mr. Swan
with which to complete his edu-
cation."
Heaps Of Money.
The Mitchell Advocate remarks :—
"It has been ascertained that the
people of St. Catharines spend five
hundred dollars a day in alcoholic
drinks, about a hundred and fifty
thousand dollars a year. If these
liquors were merely useless instead of
harmful, things would be a serious
matter for a City of the population of
St. Catharines, hub it becomes im-
measurable mere serious when the
bad results to the community are
taken into account. The money dam-
ages would be greatly increased by
adding those that are inflicted in-
directly, and yet we call ourselves sae
civilized people,"

Thirty -One Fatalities,
During 1010 at least thirty-one avi-
ators were Milled against four the
year before and one two years ago.
Most of these tragedies occurred, not
with balloons, but with aeroplanes.
It is believed that the cause of some
of the fatalities was found in what is
called a "hole in the air," At certain
points in the upper atmosphere actual
vacuums are said to be foraged by
the difference in temperature, or other
like causes, When an aeroplane
strikes one of these "holes" it is apt
to turn turtle without warning, and
in that case the aviator goes to his
death.
WOMEN SUFFER MORE
THAN MEN.
Women have more than their share
of the aches and pains that afflict hu-
manity. They roust "keep up" in
spite of constantly aching backs, or
headaches, dizzy spells, etc. Mrs.
Edward Calwood of 123 S. Baroid St.,
Fort William, Ont., says
"I suffered with dn11. miserable
pains, soreness across my back and in
sides for months. They would catch
pie ao badly at times that I could
scarcely move around. I would have
dizzy spells and altogether, felt gen-
erally run down. After using a nutn-
ber of remedies without finding relief,
I learned of Booth's Kidney Pills and
found them an excellent remedy.
They not only relieved me of the mis-
erable pains and soreness in my back
but enred me of my kidney trouble,"

Not The Only Ones.
Tne Dashwood correspondent of
The Exeter Times has this to say
about the defunct Farmers' Bank:—
"The Farmers' Bank of this place had
$113,021,31 on deposit belonging to the
farmers of this neighborhood and
many residents of the village. It was
the all of many of the small depositors
and the savings of years of not a few
of the Bank's customers."
Watch The Poor Cows.
The Weekly Sun of Iast week has
a startling illustration of the folly of
dairymen keeping inferior cows in
their herds. It is a picture showing
one cow on a large scale surrounded
by forty-two smaller cuts of cows, and
the legend states that one of the cows,
the record of which was kept by cow
testing association last year, produced
as much profit as forty-two of the
poorer cows, the records of which
were also kept. What increased
wealth would flow to the dairymen
were they to keep only the best
cows.
Poverty Increasing.
Thirty years ago less than one-
third of the people of the United
States lived in cities, towns and vil-
lages. About one-half the popula-
tion of the Republic is so herded to-
day. With this herding there has
come, in the larger centres. a state of
destitution among the submerged
masses that its simply appalling. In
New York, according to an official
report presented to the mayor of the
city a few days ago, one person in
nine is in receipt of relief at some
period during the year, and $35,000,000
are annually expended in charity,

Advice Concerning Stomach
Troubles And How To
Remedy Them.
Do not neglect indigestion which
leads to all sorts of • ills and compli-
cations. An eminent doctor once said
that ninety-five per cent, of all the
ills of the human body have their
origin in a disordered stomach.
A physicion who made a specialty
of stomach troubles, particularly
dyspepsia, after years of study per-
fected the formula from which Rexall
Dyspepsia Tablets are made.
Our experience with Rexall Dys-
pepsia Tablets leads us to believe them
to be the greatest remedy known
for the relief of acute indigestion and
chronic dyspepsia. Their ingredients
are soothing and healing to the in-
flamed membranes of the stomach.
They are rich in pepsic, one of the
greatest digestive aide known to
medicine. The relief they afford le
almost immediate. Theft* use with
persistency and regularity for a short
time brings about a cessation of the
pains caused by stomach disorders,
Rexali Dyspepsia Tablets will insure
healthy appetite, aid digestion and
promote nutrition. eke evidenee of
oar sincere faith in Remelt Dyspepsia
Tablets, we ask you to try them at
our risk. If they do not give you
entire satisfaction, we will return you
the money you paid us for there, with-
out question or formality, They eolne

Peace River District.
The Grand Trunk Pacific General
Passenger Department has been ad-
vised by the Department of the in-
terior at Ottawa that there are ap-
proximately 10,800 quarter sections
surveyed in the Grande Prairie, Peace
River DIstrict, which are now open
for homestead entry. In addition to
this, it is the intention to subdivide
27 more townships, nearly 4,000
quarter sections during the present
season, making in all about 15,000
qnarter sections for free homestead
entry in 1011 in the far-famed Peace
River country. It is reported that
there are thousands of prospective
homesteaders, especially in the north-
western 'United States, who have been
waiting eagerly for the opening of the
Peace River country to homesteading,
and when the announcement reaches
them there will be the greatest land
rush into the Peace River and Grande
Prairie country that has ever taken
place to any section of Canada.
MAKE TRIS TEST,
How To Tt11 If Your Hair Is
Diseased.
Even if you have ,;t luxuriant head
of hair you may want to know
whether it is in a healthy condition
or not. 98% of the people need a
hair tonic.
Pull a hair out of your head ; if the
bulb at the end of the root is white
and shrunken, it proves that the
hair is diseased, and requires prompt
treatment if its loss would be avoided.
If the bulb is pink and full, the hair is
healthy.
We want every one whose hair
requires treatment to try Rexall
"03" .Hair Tonic. We promise that
it shall not cost anything if it does
not give satisfactory results. It is
designed to overcome dandruff, relieve
scalp irritation, to stimulate the hair
roots, tighten the hair already in the
head, grow hair and cure baldness.
It is because of what Rexall "93"
Hair Tonic has done and our sincere
faith in its goodness that we want
you to try it at our risk. Two sizes,
50c and $L00. Sold only at our Store
