This is far from doing right, though the heave ns should fall, which Mr. Bor- � den professed to be anxious to do when be was in opposition. He has since called to his Cabinet the Hon.

(Toronto Star) On the north west corner of Bay and Adelaide streets is a piece of land the history of which ought to be writ- ten up. The tax reformers could pub- lish a book on that one little corner of land. The other day it was spoken of at the Board of control. The statement was made that in 1909 that corner was sold at $150,000 and could not now be purchased for less than $450,000. We understand that not long before 1909 it changed hands at $02,600, and a year or or two earlier at $48,600, or some such figure. Two or three fortunes have been made off that corner lot in the past six or seven years and yet it has stood there practically idle unimproved, no use of it made by any of its successive owners, not one of whom has put a spade in it, driven a nail or laid a brick. But in seven years millions of dollars have been spent in building operations on the surrounding hundred acres, and every day that has passed has added ever-increasing value to this silent, idle, dark, dinky corner with the ancient little wooden building on it. ELECTORAL CORRUPTION. Musings of a Country Merchant. The following which has been going the rounds of the press is, perhaps somewhat satirical, but it contains a good many grains of truth: "Yes, re- marked a country merchant, "1 c r- tair,ly have a snap. Wholesale houses send dunners every month and draw on me at sight, but if I send a bill to a farmer he becomes swearing mad and quits trading at my store, While I am hard up for money many of those who are owing me are sending money in advance to mail-order houses. If 1 con- tribute money for any cause, people say I am bidding for trade; if I don't they say I am a hog. Every day I am ex- pected to dig up for something that comes along, from a raffle to a church fund, by people who, I claim, ought to do part of their trading here, but our friends, Robt. Simpson and T. Eaton, neither buy tickets nor help in church funds and yet get cash in advance busi- ness. If I sell a pair or pants I mus t treat the family with candy and cigars; if I buy a load of potatoes I must do the same. Customers who are able to pay hang onto their money, while I pay ten per cent. at the bank to get ready cash. I have big business during hard ,times and poor crops from those who are willing to trade with me provided that I can duplicate catalogue house prices, and wait till harvest for my money. My scales weigh too much when I sell sugar and too little when I buy butter. I am a thief, a liar and a grafter. If I smile I am a soft, soapy hypocrite, and if I don't I am a grump. Yes, cer- tainly, this is a snap." And he looks over ten thousand dollars worth of accounts, all good, and wonders how he could raise $350 to pay a sight draft due to -morrow. (Stratford Beacon). The practice of sawing off in election protests and allowing candidates to re- sign when an election trial comes on has no doubt much to do with promoting electoral corruption. Take the case of the Macdonald election. If there was a large share of corruption and intimida- tion as the reports published in the Liberal press of Manitoba indicated, and as the resignation of the Conserva- tive candidate practically implied, trans- gressors against the law should have been punished. But by admitting enough to void the election the lid is closed and the pt ople against whom a wrong is done have no redress. A few year ago, Mr. Borden, animated by a burning zeal fOr reform of election abuses, promised to provide, when he came to office, that there should be a thorough investigation of all charges of o,orruption, and, if necessary, "to ap- point an independent prosecuting ofii- cer charged with that duty." But the anal for reform haw gone with his ohs taining office. The Woodstock. Senti- nel-1tevoew puts it this way: "Ilut this reforming zeal beiongGd 10 the days of oppositirrn. There are other things to be attended to now. There is a great host of party followers STATE OF OHIO, CITY OF'IOLEDO 5y LUCAS COUNTY. Frank J.

[Belleville, Ontario.] We have read with amusement an article by Peter McArthur, the well- known writer, in which be describes a visit to a rural fair in the village of Moravaintown. At the fair there were five hundred automobiles, more or less, and only one loney, lonesome cow. Agriculture and the dairy industry have not reached any such stage of inanition in our Bay of Quinte district as Mr. McArthur's description would indicate to be the case in the County of Kent. But it is open to question if the auto- mobile is as valuable an asset to Ontario as was the gentle, patient, honest, old, brindle or spotted cow. Let us have the automobiles if we can afford them, but let us do all that we may to foster and preserve the bovine race as the � Troubled With eak Back.

On Thursday evening of last week, the firemen were called out twice within a few hours. The first alarm was given about five o'clock, on account of an incipient fire at the Union fac- tory, caused by a spark from the elec- tric wire failing into a pail of shellac. The fire was out before the firemen reached the factory, and no damage was done. A little after 8 o'clock the alarm was sounded again, and it was soon found that a frame house near the cor- ner of Scott and Josephine streets, owned by Mr. John Elliott. sr., was on fire. The firemen were promptly on hand, and were soon playing on the fire, which was extinguished without doing much damage.

Early Christmas Shopping. There has been so much talk of early Christmas shopping in late years that there seems to be some hesitancy this year about commencing a campaign though some have started. There seems to be still need of it. The St. Thomas Journal thinks it is as much the fault of the merchants as the pub- lic that it is late. They should begin, it says, to display their Christmas wares earlier and advertise them. It is, however, to be borne in mind that merchants are quite as anxious to dis- pose of their staple and ordinary goods as they are to sell Christmas goods. Perhaps a little co-operation on the part of the part of the merchants and public would accomplish the result of preventing crowded stores, tired sales- men and saleswomen and enable the mer- chants to enjoy the holiday better. For instance, there are many lines of goods now on sale which are suitable for Christmas presents which are not se classed. These could be bought now. It would be in accordance with the Christmas spirit to think of others and to have the others include the merchants and those who work for them. The day is not far ahead now, just a month. A Very Bad Sign, Indeed. "You would," says Rural New York- er, "be surprised to see how many questions we get from people who ask if there is any legal way of avoiding the trouble and expense of caring for their parents!" Rural New Yorker, as its name im- plies, is a farm paper with a circula- tion practically Confined to farmers. It would appear, then, that in New York and adjoining States the number of farmers who seek to avoid responsibil- ity for the Care of their aged and infirm parents is large enough to create a subject for surprised comment. That is, indeed, en ominous sign. The first law of humanity is that the helpless of one's own flesh and blood shall not I come to want. If there is at all a gen- eral desire to evade that responsibility among that class in New York which has always been everywhere considered as forming the moral basis of society then, indeed, are things in a had way in that State.

Soap and the Skin. It is apt to be assumed by users of soaps that their only difference is one of cleansing quality and that the quick- est and most thorough cleanser is the best. Soaps act, however, largely through chemical properties, and both textiles and the human skin often suffer from the chemical action that they induce. The n ost widely accepted th ory is that soap cleanses because it forms an emulsion with dirt and the liberated alkali removes the fat which causes dirt to cling. The effect of soap upon the skin therefore depends on the sensitiveness of the skin to the action of alkali. All soaps from their chemical constitution must be irritant to the normal skin. The effect varies with the individual skin, and is more pro- nounced in senile and diseased skins. Cottonseed -oil and rancid fats are pro- bably largely responsible for the irritant effects in cheaper soaps. Castor-oil soap is least irritating, but it has the disadvantage of being too freely soluble, and therefore wasteful, while it is apt to become rancid. Cocoanut oil soap is decidedly irritating, while palm -nil soap, though still an irritating variety, is less so, and tallow soap shows a low irritat tog value. If these deductions are cor- rect. Dr. Gardiner thinks they supply a reason for the bad effects of modern domestic soaps of the cheaper and clothes -washing kinds, as they are made mostly from cheaper fats and the chap oils, cocoanut and cottonseed. 1l Work of Gratitude, "In justice to humanity I want to tell you that I was a great sufferer from itching piles, and have found Dr, Chase's Ointment the best treatment obtainable," writes Mrs. Fred Hintz, Brodha en, Ont.

Methods of Feeding Employed by Two Farmers Contrasted. One of our farmers, who has raised all average of 123 pigs yearly, decided to try for six hundred by breeding ono hundred gilts, writes W. Belles in Farm and Fireside. The first litters ...ue when the weather was cold and vet, and but tifty were saved, The second farrowing took .place under ,wore favorable conditions, yet but a hundred were raised. In this ease Porgy aow:c were bred. In speaking about this experience the breeder said: "It was mismanagement. l can handle forty sows with ease and raise most of the pigs. but with more they have to shift for themselves, and if condi- tions are against are 1 lose out. After this 1 will stick to forty head." Although he has his hogs 0 t an al Valhi pasture and Is n heavy grain feeder from the time the pigs are far- rowed until they are sold. yet he feels he has made good by feeding shorts as a slop on the side. Ile thinks he has Ilways made n profit at hug feeding -'incl' he started fu the early nineties, even though corn has at times cost •tronas the sixty cent murk.
