EDITORIAL NOTES
Under the heading "Bad Imperial-
ism," an editorial in The London Eng-
land Daily News and Leader of March
8 says: --"Mr. Borden would seem to
stand alone among the statesmen of the
Dominion, and the least concession he
can make is to consult the people of
Canada before he commits them to a
constitutional revolution condemned by
all the. other Dominions. Far from do-
ing
that, itis stated that he means to
force the naval bill through by intro.
clueing the closure. The first fruit,
therefore, is a domestic crisis in Can-
ada of the first magnitude. We have
from the first criticized the substance
of the Borden scheme on constitutional
grounds. We have repeatedly insisted
that it was doing an ill service to the
Empire to make the navy an issue be-
tween the parties in the Dominions.
Now that Mr. Borden's scheme has
been pushed to the point of an acute
political crisis in Canada, it will be
agreed by all rational minds that it is
doing the worst of services to Imperial
unity."
Senator McMullen died at Mount For-
est just after midnight Monday, March
17th. The Senator was in his eightieth
year. In the early 'nineties McMullen
was a radical of the radicals, a leading
member of the then Liberal Oppositon
at Ottawa, and an unsparing critic of
extravagance in public expenditure.
Latterly he had become indistinguish-
able from the staunchest defenders of
Privilege.
Professor Leacock, whose anti -reci-
procity articles were published in 1911
in every Tory paper in the Dominion
has made the suggestive comment on
the naval bill that, in event of war in
which the Empire was involved, Canada
would most suitably commemorate her
share in the conflict by the erection of
a monument inscribed: "To the memory
of $35.000,00) lost at sea."
"That a policy of contribution, wheth-
er of cash or of ships, would not meet
the needs of Imperial defence, and
would be at variance with the sound
principles of self-government which
have enabled Canada hitherto to work
out its destiny in undisturbed harmony
within the bounds of the British Empire
with dignity and without loss of self re-
spect. "-Resolution passed at Tory Tor-
onto, Mar. 14th.
a:hrouic Stomach Trouble Cured.
There is nothing more discouraging
than a chronic disorder stomach. It is
not surprising that many suffer for
years with such an ailment when a per-
manent cure is within their reach and
may be had for a trifle? "About one
year ago," says P. H. Beck, of Wake -
lee, Mich., "I bought a package of
Chamberlain's Tablets, and since using
them I have felt perfectly well. I had
previously used an number of differ-
ent medicines, but none of them were
of any lasting benefit." For sale by all
dealers.
The Toronto Globle of last Thursday
says: -The calm after the storms of the
past fortnight gives opportunity to re-
fer to the most amazing misstatements,
indeed utter falsehoods, sent out day
after day to the Conservative press of
Canada. The plainest statements made
in Parliament are falsified. Incidents
are misreported. Arguments are mis-
represented. The facts essential to a
reasonable judgment are either distort-
ed or suppressed altogether.
"There has been nothing like what is
going on at Ottawa since the time of
the Long Parliament They were fight-
ing for the peoples' liberties then. So
are we, and in carrying on that fight
we cannot do it better than under
the British Flag, which is the emblem
of courage, endurance and the imperish-
able pledge of liberty. . . Mr. Bor-
den's policy is worse than a blunder, it
is a crime against Canada, and a crime
against the British Empire." Dr. Mic-
hael Clark, M. P., at Toronto, March 14.
North Wellington Liberals have nom-
inated Mr. R M. Hazelwood, of Clifford
as their candidate for the Commons.
Mr. Hazelwood is a Ilfe-long resident
of Clifford, a man in the prime of life,
who has been identified with the public
life of his town for some years. He has
served in the municipal Council, and
has for many years been a leading spir-
it in the Methodist Church. He is held
in the highest esteem by all, and enjoys
the good -will of innumerable friends.
He has been successfully engaged in
the milling business, and being widely
known and popular throughout the
whole riding, he is looked upon as a
very strong candidate.
"The interest that we take in a con-
tribution spent by another is not the in-
terest that I desire for Canada. I want
to see something grafted on the soil of
Canada's nationhood which takes root
and grows and develops until it incites
the spirit of defence in this country,
leads to a participation in the defence,
leads to that quickened interest in it, its
glories, its duties, and its accomplished
work, which is, after all, the one great
thing that compensates a people for
great expenditures, either on land or on
sea, in the way of defence and of the
maintenance of the rights of the coun-
try." -Hon. George E. Foster in the
House of Commons. March 29, 1909.
A DOLLAR CAMPAIGN FUND.
(Toronto Star)
If every elector in Canada would
contribute one dollar to the campaign
fund of his party, a mighty blow would
be struck at corruption and for indep-
endence of the money power in politics.
At the last Dominion election each
party polled more than 600,000 votes.
The dollar contribution plan making an
ample allowing for those who could
not or would not contribute, would raise
a campaign fund of half a million dol-
lars which would go a long way toward
1 egitimate expenses.
And why should riot a man who be-
lieves that the principles of his party
are sound, and that its cause is just, be
willing to make that very small finan-
cial sacrifice? Why should he not sup-
port his party as he would support his
church? It would enhance the value of
his vote. It would give him a concep-
tion of government, not as a source of
possible favors to himself, but to the
whole country. It would give him an
interest in the affairs of the party, and
a feeling that he had a right to a policy
to a voice in its policy.
Men complain to the influence of cor-
porations and of powerful moneyed in-
terests in politics. If they allow the
corporations and the wealthy men to
supply the campaign funds they must
expect that these corporations and men
of wealth will seek their reward in plu-
tocratic legislation.
It is well to forbid contributions from
large corporations. But there must be
a constructive policy as a prohibition.
If you dry up a source from which con-
taminated water may flow, you must
open up a source of pure water.
The Forty Year Test.
An article must have exceptional merit
to survive for a period of forty years.
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy was first
offered to the public in 1872. From a
small beginning it has grown in favor
and popularity until it, has attained a
world wide reputation. You will find
nothing better for a cough or cold. Try
it and you will understand why it is a
favorite after a period of more than
forty years. It not only gives relief -
it cures. For sale by all dealers.

LOCAL NEWS.
There has been a great deal of sick-
ness in town lately, a mild type of in-
fluenza being prevalent among the chil-
dren.
The snow has gone off very'gradually
this year, the only damage done of any
consequence, was that the top of the
milldam was carried away.
On Saturday last, while Mr. D.
Pringle's team was standing in front
of the Park House, they took fright
and ran down street, but were stopped
before much damage was done.
Miss McIntyre, teacher of the 2nd
department of the public school, is at
present trying the curative qualities of
Preston mineral baths, for sciatica.
Hbr many friends hope she will return
fully recovered.
Mr. Jos. Risdon, who removed about
8 years ago from Wingham to Detroit,
returned on Monday to resume his for-
mer position with J. J. Homuth & Son.
His family will return shortly.
The Misses McDonald, who have been
visiting friends at Stratford for the
past couple of months, returned on Fri-
day last. Dr. J. R. McDonald has been
keeping "batch" during their absence.
Mr. Haslam of the 4th line of Mor-
ris, has taken up residence in town.
Saturday night was the last night of
Almost anyone with a garden or farm
in a temperate climate can grow tomat-
oes with greater or less success but
there is a great difference between the
extent and quality of the crops' grown
by different persons in the same locality.
These differences are due to several
causes among which the varieties grown
and methods of cultivation practised are
perhaps the chief.
According to experiments carried on for
years at the Experimental Farm at Ot-
tawa, Eariina, of which there are several
strains, is the best earlier sort but Bonny
Best, Cnalks' Bathe Jewel are also good
early kinds. Of later varieties Match-
less Trophy, Livingston's Globe and
Plentiful rank high.
It is the early fruit that makes the
profit. In growing plants what should
be aimed at is the production of a stocky.
sturdy plant which will have some fruit
set upon it when set in the field. After
planting the chief work is cultivation
which should be done both ways in the
plantation.
In order to protect tomato plants
from diseases, of which there are sever-
al they should be repeatedly sprayed,
even when quite young, with Bordeaux
mixture. These and many other points,
which cover practically the whole field
of tomato culture in the green house as
well as in the garden and field, are fully
treated in pamphlet No. 10 of the Cent-
ral Experi mantel Farm prepared by the
Dominion Horticulturist, Mr. W. T.
Macoun, This work is for free distri-

A Lame Back
COULD NOT STRAIGHTEN UP.
Many people fail to understand the
signifi canoe of a lame, weak, sore or aching
back.
When the back aches or becomes weak
it, is a warning that the kidneys are
affected in some way.
Heed the warning, cure the back and
dispose of any chances of serious kidney
trouble following.
Mr. C. Grace, Hamilton, Ont., writes:
-"I was Buffering with a lame back, and
for two weeks was riot able to straighten
up to waik, sadhardly able to Sit down
for the pains in my back, hips, and lege.
I had used different kinds of pills, plus-
tete. liniments and medicines, without i
any relief. One day I read about Doan's
Kidney Pills and decided to try them.
Before I had half a box used I felt a great
deal better and by the time I had ,used
two boxes, I was cured. I have no hesita-
tion in recommending Doan's Kidney
Pills."

Profits in Early Maturity.
One of the curious things about body
cells is, says Breeders' Gazette of Chic-
ago, that they behave differently at dif-
ferent times, During the youth of
animals they are as busy as nailers, and
as ambitious as beavers; their business
is growth and multiplication. They in-
crease by division. The one splits into
two, the two into four, the four into
eight, and so on indefinitely. In order
to multiply, the cells must attract and
assimilate food. By grabbing the sub-
stance of digested foods that the blood
hurries by, by appropriating food ele-
ments and then dividing themselves,
these cells make growth.
The body cells are unlike and do not
act the same way at different stages of
animal growth and development. , In the
baby pig they are young, enthusiastic,
hungry, eager, dividing and dividing
again; that is, if they have food with
which to build. As the age of the ani-
mal progresses, they become less active
and are careless of increase. As age
creeps on they cease to try to propogate
at all; the blood may surge by them laden
with food, but they are indifferent; they
increase no more. There is money in
understanding this simple scientific
truth, There is a lesson; itis "feed the
babies." That is the stockman's oppor-
tunity. Take advantage of young and
vigorous cell -growth.

The building of battleships is only a
part of the vast enterprise which we
have in view for Canada. The mad race
in naval armaments may cease, but if so
our mighty enterprise will not be aband-
oned. We will build merchant ships and
passenger ships. We will put life and
vigor into every community in Canada
which has access to sea, or lake, or river.
We will build everything that floats.
and we will be satisfied with nothing
less than leadership in building ships and
sailing ships, iii carrying passengers alid
in carrying the commerce of the world.
You cannot check Canada.
Signs of Kidney Trouble.
In the early stages kidney troubles
are known by backache and urinary dis-

rheumatic pains, and perhaps diabetes.
But don't wait for these. Dr. Chase's

Care of Tailored Suit.
The value of taking proper care of
tailored clothes is seldom fully realized,
but it is really almost as important as
the proper cut.
A tailored suit should be thoroughly
brushed as soon as it is taken off, es-
pecially the bottom of the skirt and the
collar of the coat.
The coat should be put on a padded
hanger, which in turn should be hung on
a pole in the closet so that the garment
will not come in close contact with any-
thing else.
The skirt should be hung by two tapes
placed at each side of the belt, or else
clenched by trouser hangers. In the
latter case the waistband of the skirt
should be folded and the hangers closed
over it.

AN OUTLAWED CANINE.
Timid by Day, Coyote Can Fight
Well When Cornered.
Skulking along the hillside, oe
sneaking through the canyon, they
coyote is a lonely, rather pitiful fig-.
u.a in the light of day, hated an
humiliated, despised and despoiled
hunted and shot at, with a price upon
his head, an outlaw without redress.
i
night when the d
arknee s ofh gt has
settled over the land, then does he
gather courage as he prowls along
the trails or through the brush, Tak-
ing his station on a hilltop, he yelps
and howls defiance at the ranchman'a
answering dogs, at the rano am
himself and his men, and all whom
in the light of day he has so feared.
but whom he now challenges and
mocks in the safety of the dark night
hills. So vociferous, so multifarious.
so penetrating is his clamor that the
listener is led to believe that there its
a dozen or more of him voicing his
independanein his contempt and his
resentment, instead of one lone, soli-
tary animal who but a few hours be-
fore feared to raise his voice ab've
a whisper.
The coyote is a species of wolf, evi-
dently a link between the wolf and
the dog. He has the cunning of the
wolf, the intelligence of the dog, and
in spit: of his reputation of a coward.
he has the c. erase to put up a good
fight when cornered. He is exceed-
ingly fleet of foot and seems to real-
ize i,..3 appreciate the fact. On it he
depends far safety, and pursued by
dogs, knowing his superior pedal ad-
vantages, he seems to take pleasure
in tolling them on. He will lead them
a merry chase through the brush and
over the hills. and when weary -or
likely long before- will stop in some
spot where the view of the chase is
good, and wait and watch his pur-
suers with a smile of contempt and
derision on his face. The time comes
for some of his pack, however, when
the dogs get him at a disadvantage,
but thus cornered he will make a gal-
lant fight with teeth and claws, and
some, if not all, of the dogs will learn
that they have no mean adversary to
contend with.
At one time, some years ago, the
coyote was hunted by horsemen and
hounds, as the fox is hunted in other
places. Packs of fine greyhounds
were kept for that purpose, though
foxhounds were also used. In recent
years the cutting up of a great deal of
territory into small ranches, and the
building of towns and villages has put
an end to organized coyote hunts with
horses. Near the towns the coyote
stays well back in the hills during the
daytime and only descends into the
valleys when darkness has obscured
the land and he may in its friendly
shelter enter the precincts of man un-
noticed. Then is he stealthy, making
no noise, for he realizes his danger.
and knows that if he would be sate
he must be quiet.

ft Storm From Above the Clouds.
The view of a stormeloud from above
is one of the .host interesting sights
ever beheld by mortal man. A storm
viewed from above the clouds has the
appearance of ebullition. The upper
surface of the cloud is b"lged upward
and outward and has the resemblance
of a vast sea of boiling, upheaving
snow. Immediately above the storm -
cloud the air is not so cold as it is in
the clearer atmosphere above or in the
cicud itself. The falling of the rain
can be distinctly heard, making s
noise like a waterfall over a precipice.
The thunder heard above a storm -
cloud is net loud, and the flashes
of lightning appear like streaks of in-
tensely white light on the gray color-
ed vapor.
A Banknote 4,00 Years Old.
Banknotes have been current in
Europe only within the last three
centuries, but the Chinese have used
them for over 4,000 years. The Asiatic
museum at St. Petersburg has ac-
quired a banknote issued in Pekin in
the year 2800 B.C., in many respects
similar to those now in use. It is of
thick white paper, inscribed in blue
ink, with the number of the note, the
name of the bank and the date of
issue, the cashier's signature and the
value in words as well as in figures.
In addition the following sage coun-
sel is engraved round the border:
"However much you may possess.
strive to be thrifty."
Agreed With Her.
After an all night session with the
boys, a husband wended his way
'home, arriving there at about 5 a.m.
He found his wife waiting for him in
the dining room, the confusion of
furniture indicated that she had been
having an unhappy time.
"This is a nice time for yen to be
coming home !" snapped the wife.
"Yes," admitted . the erring •.,hus-
band; "it's a lovely morning."
"I haven't slept a wink this blessed
'might!" with a severe look,
"Neither have I," said the husband.
Why a Cat's Eyes Shine in the Dark.
A cat's eyes shine in the dark not
because they produce light, but be-
cause they reflect all the light that
may reach them. If the cat is in a
totally dark room one cannot see its
eyes; it is only when there is at least
a glimmer of light that these glow.
The cat's eyes is a powerful lens with
a reflector behind. This gathers the
rays and concentrates them in a hori-
zontal beam. It is possible that these
shini"g eyes exercise a sort of hyp-
notic fascination over mice and rats.
Properly Situated.
"They may say what they like•
against him," said the convicted one's
defender, "but his heart ie in the•
right place."
"Yes," assented the other, "acid so
is the rest of him for a few years."
The Primer of Love.
See the young woman. is the young;
woman being suddenly and anapest, •i,

young woman rase a hue and cry?
The young woman raises a slight hue..
but no cry.
