Why Canada Should be Confident Financial fret of August 14th In view of the taki n lP places in Europe, which will constitute an epoch of perhaps, unprecedented iw portance in history, we appeal strong- ly to all Canadian business men and all who hold securities or investments of any kind to meet the present situa- tion with calmness and confidence Our firet duty, at any cost, is to aid in Great Britain's sustenance and de- fence. and our next duty, not lest important, is to keep the business of the Dominion moving as normally as possible. Let it be remembered that while we must lay aside aomething to pay our share of the cost of the war, we have at our back storehouses of natural wealth scarcely yet touched. As the calamities of Europe place a higher value on our wheat and other expor- table crops, so will the same calamities —the result of militarism and con- scription—make the peaceful land. of Canada more attractive to some of the best people of Europe whose hopes and lands, generation after generation, have been despoiled or devastated by war. A t the present instant Canada stands practically immune from the physical mcnance of war ; our fields are giving their wealth to the harves- ter, and our other resources are yield- ing their bounty in greater propor- tions than ever. Wealth production is proceeding, and the opportunities for still greater primary production are not diminishing. This continent, including Canada, will profit largely and speedily by the changes in the world's currents of trade during the war. Many of our factories will find demands upon them stimulated be- oauee of restriction placed upon the productive machinery of Europe by the exigencies of war, and though fur a time in diminished quantities, a fair proportion of Britain's available capi- tal will come to Canada for invest- ment. Under the circumstances, there- fore, the one great essential to keep business moving is cot fi lence, and Canada, probably of all nations of the world, has least ex,use to tiler for any lack of it. "In the unprecedented and critical Iituatioa that exiete," says Sir Geo. Paish, "it is of the greatest importance fthat everyoneshould to act es if great events were not impending. Were confidence seriously cisturbed, business would come praoticaily to ten end, and our ability to face the diffl- culties that may be in front of us would be seriously impaired. There- fore, it is of vital importance that, as tar as possible, the events that are now taking place should not interfere with the daily life and the daily work of the nation. Ceders should be given, factories should be run, and every. thing should be arranged to maintain, as far as possible, the productive power and the income of_the country. "But for this to be accomplished, the situation must be faced with courage and confidence on the part of everyone. Investors must continue to invest, bankers must continue to lend, the Stock Exchange must cons tinue to deal, and every one according to hie ability must endeavor to work hard in order that individual incomes, and therefore the income of the whole nation, may be maintained at the highest possible level. "A little over a century ago, when the nation was at -war with 1Vapoleon, its income was a very small one, being less than one-eighth of what it is at present, and in a comparatively small space of time the British people sue,. ceeded in raising about £1,000,000,000 of money for war purposes, and so great was theirconfl.lence and courage that at the end of the great war, which severely taxed their resources, they were stronger and wealthier than they had been at the beginning." Canada's natural store is as yet barely touched. From any temporary lull in our progress, from iv/ a ever cause, we can therefore, recover our- selves more quickly than did the Motherland after her world struggle of a century ago if our people are of the same heart and industry, and we are confident they are. Courage in the fight for the Empire is not more necessary than courage iu tae mainten• ante of the industry and commerce of the country.—Financial Post. /W MAIwv'V /'VANV W W VCM 4M/ Personas Mrs. Ftp aan Clegg is the guest of Mrs. E.

L. Borden knew all along that what. is now happening in Europe was gent g to happen. Well if ho dld, why did he not reintroduce his naval proposals in the ]douse of Commons last session? To say that he knew such action would be futile in view of the attitude of the attitude of the Senate is not sufifcent explanation. That he dropped bis proposals for the time being is sufficient evidence that he had no faith in his own 'emerg- ency" Neither Sir Robert Borden nor any other statesman or journalist could have absolutely foreseen the situation which now exists in Europe. All that s claimed for the Prime Minister is that he knew the forces were gathering in Europe for a world-shaking contest, that he 'knew Germany designed an attack upon Great Britian and that be knew a peace -loving British Govern- ment nt felt obliged to lucre ase approp- riations for defence beyond all preced- ent in order to prepare for the danger which threatened. Moreover the naval programme of the Borden Government had the direct and unequivocal approval of. the Imperial authorities. When Mr. Borden asked the Liberal Government of Great Britain how best Canada could aid the Empire in the existing situation in Europe, the Admiralty answered : "Tho Prime Minister of the Dominion having inquired in what form any immediate aid that Canada might give would be most effective, we have no hesitation in answering, after a prolonged consideration of all the circumstances, that it is desir- able that such aid should include the provision of a certain number of the largest and strongest ships of war which science can build or money supply.' Fur months this proposal was fought by the Opposition in Par- liament with desperate and vindictive energy. The House was forced to sit day and night in order that thei Gov- ernment aright make headway. At last even closure had to be introduced before the measure could be sent on to the Senate, There an angry and irresponsible partisan majority in con- tempt of public opinion rejected the proposals. In face of these facts The Expositor's suggestion that Sir Rob- ert: Borden should have wasted anoth- er session in a futile endeavor to carry a proposal which he knew would again be defeated by the partisan majority in the Senate is too absurd for serious consideration.--[ Toronto News. Sad and unexpected was the news when it bedame known that Mr. George Quinn, one of the early settlers of East Wawanash had passed away on Monday morning while assisting in the barn by some means or another he fr11 from the mow a distance of several feet to the ground floor, rendering him unconscious and at five p. m, the same evening his spirit took its flight.

Me, Robert Birmingham, whore death is just announced, Was an aetiye figure in Canadian polities for a gene; - ation. Through succes,ive ger eral elections he Organized the#Conserva- tive party. He had the ,confidence of Sir John Mac loneid, of Sir John Thompson and of Sir Charles Tupper. Ile gave valuable assistance to tbo leaders of the Conservative party in Ontario in the long Contest against Sir Oliver Mowat. Mr. Birmingham had resource and energy, and what is of great value in an organizer, he had reticence and discretion, in this re- lation to a great political party a mete must receive many confidences and know Much that cannot he pnbliehed abroad. tut Mr. 'Birmingham betray ed no man's.conlldence, never spoke too freely and never used his position to bring adventitious distinction to htniself. He had many friendships which lasted throughout his life and his death is widely and deeply regrets - td. {Toronto Nein. Borden Saw an Emergency During the present troublous times the Advance does not pur- pose discussing polities to any great extent, however, we would like to know if the Laurier party and the Toronto Globe will now admit theta is an 'emergency'. Even when the British Admiralty advised Canada that the best as- sistance she could give were three modern battleships, the Liberal Party in the House of Coronions said there was no emergency. Sir Robert Borden seemed to peer into the future with almost prophetic vision. The following is a clipp- ing from the Globe and without further comment we publish por- tions of speeches delivered by Sir Robert Borden during the past four years which will answer the editor- ial in the Globe full well. "A BOLT FROM THE BLUE" Every days events make it plain and plainer than the Toronto preacher spoke the mind not of himeelf alone and of church people and civilians, but also the honest mind of the Govern- ment and the defence authorities at Ottawa : —"The first flash of war came as a bolt from the bine." • The preach• er spoke out frankly his real thought. To be sure, "smart Alecke" and the irreeponsibles now say "I told you so." But Sir Robert Borden does not say that, The Minister of Finance does not say it. The Minister of ltrarine does not say it, The Minister of Militia and Defence does not say it.— Toronto Globe, August 7th, 1914. The day might eome—I do not know that it will come—the day might come ; it might come to -mor- row, it might come next week, it might come next month, when the only thing we could do in the ab- sence of preparation in this country would be to make some kind of contribution.—Sir Robert Borden in the House of Commons, March 29th, 1909. The speediest organization would not make our Canadian naval ser - Wanted a young woman r r you: g One to sawn typeva Oleg apply Advil. - „ens vice effective in less than ten years.. Probably 10 or 20 years would be required ; and the crisis, if a crisis is to be apprehended, will come within five and probably within three years.—Sir Robert Borden, in the House of Commons, January 12th, 1910. This Empire will never under- take any war of aggression,, and all the influences of Canada will as- suredly be arrayed against any such course ; but we know that war has come many times within the past fifty years without warn- ing, like a thunderbolt from a clear sky, and thereby the power, the influence, and the destiny of more than one nation have been pro- foundly affected. A naval war, especially, may come with startling suddenness, fqr these tremendous engines of war are always ready and prepared for battle. --Sir Rob- ert Borden, in the House of Com- mons, Deo. 5th, 1912. But to -day, while the clouds are heavy and we hear the booming of the distant thunder, and see the lightning flashes above the horizon, we cannot and we will not wait and deliberate until any impendingetorm shall have burs t upon us infury and with disaster. Almost unaid- ed, the Mother Land, not for her- self alone, but for us as well, is sustaining the burden of a vital Imperial duty, and confronting an overmastering necessity of national existence. Bringing the best as- sistance that we may in the urgency of the moment, we come thus to her aid, in token of our determina- tion to protect and ensure the safe- ty and integrity of this Empire, and of our resolve to defend on sea, as well as on land, our flag, our hon- or and our heritage. Sir Robert Borden, in the House of Commons, Dec. 5th, 1912. Regulate the Political Doctors. "Paternalism is the 'watchword ! Regulate everything and everybody ! "Very well 1 While we are about it, let's regulate the doctors. The medi- cal profession has never baen notice• ably coy or diffident about trying to control everybody in sight, always basing its pleas on the pharisaical argument—'pro bono publico'. If the common people are to be examined, diagnosed, quarantined, isolated, drugged, dosed, treated, vaccinated, serum-ized, and cut up, by men who claim to be competent, it might not be considered unreasonable for the regulator toehow his credentials. "As a starter, how would it do to pass a•Iaw compelling registered physis Mane to be re-examined every five years? What a row that would make! How t he medical journals would froth "Nevertheless, there are reasons enough for the bill. Medical theories and practice are changing, not every five years, but every five days. Cures for cancer, treatment for tuberculosie, new serums and vaccines are announc- ed by the profession today, only to be recalled or denounced tomorrow. If the doctors ineist on their rights to control us, are we too audacious when weask them to furnish evidence that they are familiar with the up -to date medical hallucinations, and that they know enough to regulate us accord- ing to the latest guess? "If that isn't enough, leet's try a law requiring physicians to write their prescriptions in plain English, instead of the customary hog -Latin. That might reduce the death rate consider- ably, besides making it easier for the drug clerk to distinguish between an of der for epsoiu salts and a call for parts green. It would also give the patient e. pretty fair idea as to just bow thoroughly he wee be ing done!” —Medical Freedom. Bluevate. Smillie Brae, shipped a car of cattle to Breslau on Monday.

Griffiths a,ad family have returned to Toronto alter *la n4 r.g the p tat few weeks at their Water Supply is all Important The importance of pure water supply upon the farm or in the smaller centres of population cannot be over-estimated Where, on the farm, a well can be dug sufficiently distant from any danger cf pollution and in a location sufficiently high to overcome the possibility of sur- face water entering, this style of well is to be preferred to the drilled well. The occurance of such favorable con- ditions, however, is so unusual as to necessiatate the almost general use of drilled wells. The latter, as a rude, are more easily put down, and can be carri- ed much deeper. They are -cased with piping, and a safe joint made at the top with the pump, or in the case of a flowing well, with a faucet. This lin- ing of the drilled well precludes the entering of any pollution, and, extend- ing as it does for a considerable height above the surface, avoids any danger from surface water. • s On the farm of Mr. Jos, Boisvert at Ginny. Alberta, an artesian. well has recently been struck at a depth of fifty feet. Mr. Boisvert stated that he drill- ed the well with a le inch pipe, and, with a f inch faucet attached, he has secured sufficent pressure to send a stream twenty feet into the ale. He also states there are quite a number of these flowing wells in his district. Busiest Street.

The flax mill here will employ a good number of hands throughout the Fall and Winter Flax has been a good crop this year and this territory is said to be the beat in Ontario for graving same. A Fine Lead The Cowan Company of Toronto, manufacturers of cocoa and chocolate have shown an excellent example in presenting the Government with seas eral thousand pounds of their products for use in the militia and naval depart- ments, by announcing that they are not advancing prices to the public, an d by further declaring that none of their employees are to be dismissed th'p yt ar on account of the war. This•course of action displays courage and patriotism. It prevents unemployment, and makes for financial stability in a time of trial. If the heade of all industries were to follow the lead of the0owans the hand of the Government would be greatly strengthened and the task of helping to fight the battle of deilrocracy mat- erially facilitated.
