Department reform shall not stop at the Customs Department, but shall proceed in all branches of the service wherever it may be found that the blight of degeneration has set in. 2. Definite and clear rescoration of the principle of protection in the tariff of Canada, a principle and practice upon -which all can rely upon which industry can depend, upon which workers can depend, but a principle and practice which none will be permitted to abuse. 3. An immigratioa policy which will encourage people to come to Canada, and ewhich will seek first to bring out British immigrants, and immigrants from other countries whose manhood and womanhood al- ready have proved suited to our cli- mate. 2. Encouragement of the use of Canadian coal by Canadian consum- ers, and the employment by Cana- dian shippers of our own maritime ports. 5.

J0tIN JOINT WILLING TO BE CANDIDATE FOR COMMONS IN N. HURON Toronto, July 21.—John Joynt, Conservative member for North Hur- on in the -Onturio Legislature, an- nounced yesterday that he was seek- ing the federal nomination for the same riding, "I may not get it," he points out, "but set my hat for it anti if I do get it, I'll turn that riding Con- servative in the coming Dominion election." Last May, a month after the 1926 eession of the Ontario Legislature had ended, Mr. Joynt startled his el- ectors with the statement that the announcement of the next Ontario election would signal his severing eonnection with provincial politias. While, at that time, be gave no rea- son for bis ratiremeet, it was gentr- ally known that he was planning a . world tour, and thie was held countable for hie unexpected with - thawed from political harnees. Now, ; it appears—and Mr. Joynt admitted it yesterday—that he has had his eye ; on the federal field for some time. "I don't like the idea of postpone I ing my trip any longer," he said, 1 yesterday,"but I'm after that federal ' nomination and the trip may have to' wait." Mr. Joynt inferred that several Conservatives would be sreltiog the , party nomination in North Huron. George Spotton, would, he experted, be =tong the list of aspirants, John ; King, the Progressive member, wire ' beat Spotton Iast October, is almost certain to be in the field apatie and ; to be tendered the Progressive nom- ; ination. The Liberals, in spite of considerable press prophecy, were not likely Mr. Joynt thought, to tin- ter a men i.nthe race."

Immense Cache of Liquor Found Officers Seize Elaborate Still in Home Near Teeswater -- Goderich, july 02.—In an effort to locate the source of tho swamp whiskey which has been circulated in the north of the country. Lieense Inepeetor Pellow and Provincial Offi- s car Whitesides diseovered yesterday afternoOn one of the largest liquor Caches ever found in this district. 1 Searching for a third time the home of Sigmund Fryburger, of the Teeswater road, the boundary ef Huron and Bruce, the officers dag.ov- ered in the taller a secret loch, which' when opened with a crank, reieed a huge cement slab on a pivot, giving entrance to a cement vault. 'Fhb.: vault the officers forced open by hreaking through a foot of rainforce concrete. It was completely en- . eased in 12 -inch concrete walls, 25 feet long and 8 feet wide. Enter- ing, the officers found 12 barrels of maeh, a huge still with full equip - meet to turn out 100 quarts of al- cohol a day. They also found bar- rels of swamp whiskey and a quan- tity of sealed whiskey, also tins of alcohol. License- Inspector Pellow seized tiv-I liquor, and later revenue officers took in charge the still and destroy- , ed the batch with coal oil. Fryburea or and Paisley, his assistant, ttre now in• jail serving sentences of six months bit' sale of illicit liquor. However, further charges will be laid under the 0. T. A. and Inland Rev- enue Act on account of this find. ; Keen interest is attracted to the case, as the source: of the large mum- tity of swamp liquor has MVO' been detected. The wonderfully equipped vaults found yestarday4 almost ims poseible of detection, are new known to have been the sourer, of this boot- leg supply.

The long row of rusted razors in the glass case just beyond is in itself a uniquely tragic comment on life. Each was used either by the frenzied hand ot a murderer or the despairing one of a suicide. The weapons range all the way from the innocent appearing hammer to the latest autoznatie pistol, per- haps the relic in which the doctor takes most pride is an aged musket With Which a guide shot his com- panion far in the north woods. Dr. Derome travelled nearly three hun- dred utiles by canoe and on foot through the wilderness to investigate that homicide and he brought the gun back with him to civilization, though it added much to the hard- ships of the return journey. Included aznong the firearms are the rifles, pistols and sawed-off shot- guns wi-th which eight men held up a bank car in a busy Montreal street. Six laid down their lives as a result of that crime—four on the scaffold and two in the heat ofthe gun battle, Another interesting item is an ex- act model of the house of Father Delorme whose threo trials on a charge of murder of his stop -brother created such a sensation throughont Canada, The model, which is wort - ed out to the last detail, played an important part in the dramatic legal battle which ended in the acquittal of the priest, after two juries had failed to agree on a verdict.

With the naked eye 11 is peseible to see only about 7,000 eters, but front 20,000 photographs of the heavens taken during the Na". thirty years the correct. positions or 1,0,000,- 000 stars have been ascertained. Enormous as this nunther It, the powerful telstecopea in nee to -day hest, led to the dieeovery of over 100,000,000. It is a singular feet that at the present tinie, out of all the numeroue star charts in existence there are no two that agree exactly as to boun- daries, so that certain stars are soinatimes included in One constella- tion and sometimes in another. Al the recent meeting of the Inter- national Astronomical Ladou at Cain - bridge It was proposed by 1\1. Stroo- bent, a Belgian delegate, that the holllitlart,.s of the various censtella: lions should be revised and that new maps that could be used by astrono- mers in all parts of the world be made. It was decided to alter the existing charts as little as possible. The Bear and the Lion, Andromeda and her parents, and Cepheus and Cassiopeia with Perseus, who rescued iter front Cetus, lent suffer no change. The sug- gestion of Sir John Herschel to group the stoats into constellations, each en- closed by parallels of latitude and meridians of longitude, or declination and right ascension, would have made the plan of the heavens the simplest Possible, but as it would have de- stroyed the famous mythologcal con- stellations devised by astronomers more than two thousand years ago it was not adopted. The star Arcturus travels through space at a speed of over 300 miles a second, yet so vast is the distance between this star and the earth that from 130 B.O.—when Hipparchus made a star catalogue— up to the present time, it has apparently mov- ed only a fraction over one degree, or twice thes diameter of the full moon! OLDEST HOSPITAL TN PARIS. Hotel Dieu Was Founded In Seventh Century, According to Tradition. The Hotel Dieu, in Paris, it is be- lieved, is the oldest hospital existing in the world. There are some in Italy, notably at Milan, which rival O in age, and a hospital on the Island of Rhodes, now a museum, founded by the Knights Templar during the Crusades, St. Bartholomew's of Lon- don recently celebrated its eight hun- dredth anniversary. But even these the Hotel Dieu outranks by seveaal centuries. Its story is that of Paris, or even more, that of France, and certainly It is a inirror of the history of medi- cine since t he fall of the Roman P.Impire. Thus tradition dates its foundation to St. Landry, Bishop 01 Paris, in the seventh century, 660 A.D., a century and a half before the crowning of Charlemange in 800 as Emperor of the Holy Roman Em- pire. One of the wards of the pres- ent hospital is named after this St Landry. More accurate history, how- ever, attributes its founding to Bishop Ichad, who lived in the ninth century. It antedates the Cathedral of Notre Dante, the corner-siono of which was laid in the twelfth century. The hospital was zed always called by its present name, being first known as the Hospice of St-. Chris- topher, and later as the Hospice of Notre Dame, It born these names up to the twelfth century, After the building of the cathedral it became known as the Matson Dieu de Paris, because it 'good at the foot of the great church, MAKING !PLATE GLASS. Is Made by Feeble. Sand With Certain Other Materials. Plate glass is made by fusing sand with certain other materials. h TiP sand having been washed to fropt front iznpurities and boated red-hot to get rid of organic matter, is sifter] through a One screen to remove coarse grains, and these mixed thor- oughly with the other ingredients. The mixture is then conveyed to the glass furnace and shovelled into large open crucibles until melted, It is then carried by a crane to the casSing , table on which it is poured out, and metal rollers squeeze the white mass over the surface of the table. When the cast sheet of glass has thoroughly . cooled It is placed in an annealing oven, coming otit ready for the grind- ing and polishing process, This is effected in a special machine, in which the plate of glass: is imbedded in plaster of paris. Its surface is ground by means of small revolving glass plates called "rubbere," a grinding paste being placed between these and the sarface of the glass. Any little bumps on the surface of the sheet are soon worn down, and as the 'pro- cess of grinding continues, finer pow- ders are employed In the grinding pastes, until finally a -special paste is used for polishing purposes only. The glass Is then removed and turned over, the opposite side undergoing the saine treatment of, grinding and polishing. And after this the sheet of plate -glass Is ready for any shop - window.

They are all weeds. Stock will not eat them green, and they are worthless as hay. Weed cutting ordinances, proper- ly enforced, would work no hadship on anyone. The only drawback is the cost of weed cutting. It pays farmers and gardeners to keep the weeds down because of the harm they do crops and the expense they; cause, those who till the soil. The farm experts say weeds on ditch banks and turnsaws and along high- ways add to the cost of farmlng on nearby fields. If the hay fever suffers and their friends will exert themselves to have weed laws passed and enforced, they should have the support of the farm experts and the people who work for clean, well kept towns. By working for the suppreseion of weeds, they help to make life en- durable in August, September and October. Cutting Weeds Curbs Hay Fever. Victims of This Trouble Should Work for Anti -Weed Laws The plants which cause hay fever are known. Everywnere there is someone who knows the plants which cause hay fever in that 1scality. That person is sometimes the health officer, sometimes someone or more perions connected with universities or colleges, and sometimes an official of the department of. agriculture. There is but one logical plan for a hay fever sufferer who would seek the climate cure to pursue. That is, first, to determine which plants cause his trouble; second, to locate a sec- tion in which those plants do not exist in large number, -or do not Pol- linate during the season when he will be on vacation; an, third, to go to such place and stay -until after the pollination in his home town. Any other method of finding a haven of escape from bay fever is a gamble. There is one additional step that may be worth while. That is to find out whether the people in the resort town have a weed ordinance and cm force it. Otherwise, there might be SOMO weed in the resort which might start up a hay fever on its own, even though 0 was something to which the man had never been exposed at home. The custom of going to a resort 10 escape hay fever is not holding its own, because vaccination against the trouble and pollen treatment of it is proving more satisfactory. In some communities the people ate making themselves safe front hay fever by weed campaigns. Grand Bend There aro three reasons for this Dashwood trouble: The principal cauee of Crediton A sudden heating of the engine in- dicates trouble unless it ie a hot day and the car is climbing a grade.

Since both trees and grass aro so valuable that they can never be destroyed, the hay fever subjects must depend upon yearly vaccina- tion for protection.

There is no pollen of importance as a cause of autumn - Are v rtia it The purchasing public is daily becoming 'reater readers of advertisemnts. The reason for this is that they pr?fit by so doing. They find the goods they want described in the right manner. It is news to the purchaser. That being the case, it behooves the wide- awake and straight -dealing mercham to study his advertising matter carefully, so that when the customer collies in to buy, he or she will find that the goods are as represented. Thosi . who do not read advertisements are losers. Make it a part of your reading to go over the advertisements of the merchants. By so doing you will know where to find the best bargains.
