Om advent of a third party whose electoral Strength has been demonstrated end whose acti- vities eats no longer be dismissed as a temporary manifestation of rural peevishness. It le true that in the past our two historic parties have not enjoyed 'a completely clear field for there duel at general elections. There vas the iifely episode of the Patrons of Industry; there have been numer- ous Labor candidates and a few Labor members and an occasional independent lea hewn a path for him- self to Ottawa, But all previous out. busts of irregularity were on a minor scale and therefore easily dealt with. To -day, however, a new situation has arisen. The old parties are at last con- fronted with a serious threat to their alternate monopoly of power and the disturbance thereby created is most dis- tasteful and to many faithful partisans distreesing, Mr. Meighen deplores the appearance of occupational politics and class bias and Mr. King pictures his party as offering "a way of escape' from the unpleasant alternatives of Toryism and class ascendency. Less illustrious personages protest against the impertient intruders into the oid party game. Abnormal Aalong Nations But all this displays an ignorance of history and a lack of perspective, Canada. has in reality been 'abnormal among nations cin her freedom from the activities of third parties. For the last century they have rarely been absent from the British political stage, 'There were in turn the Canningites, the anti -Corn Law League, the Peelites, the Irish Nationalists, the Liberal Union fists and last, but not least formidable the Lab6r party. All the countries of continental Europe have enjoyed a multiplicity .of parties since they adopted the pariiamentery form of government. Australia -used to have the Conservative, Liberal and Labor parties fighting a three -cornered battle. To -day the first has disappeared but its place has been taken by a country party. South Africa affords scope for ' the South African, the Nationalist and the Labor Party and New 'Zealand has also a triangular alingment. In the United States third parties have ap- flagrant abuses and apparent injustices. The Granger, Populist, Progressive and minor insurgent movements In the U. S. were merely the expressions of suc- cessive efforts` to challenge the justice of various features of the country's economic and social development. Our new Progressive movement had a sim- ilar origin on our Western prairie, and the impulses underlying its birth and development are medial. it is in its essence a movement of protest against tbat its devotees regard es serious flaws in our politica], social and economic system, and there is no ulterior motive behind it. Bring New Ideas From the larger social viewpoint the chief function of third parties has been to yribg new issues before the electorate. They force fresh Ideas upon the old parties, and often, hav- ing accomplished their work, pass a- way, Permeation of the old parties by the Influence of some third party organization formed to advocate ur- gent reforms has often been very suc- cessful. The Anti -Corn Law League of Cobden and Bright Is the most not- able example. The larger the number of votes which a third party can poll, the greater the probability that its main policy will be adopted by one or both the old parties. Such a result is snore likely than that it will be able to displace permanently the old establish - old parties. nl time the ideas which political history that minority parties ultimately write the program of the old patries. In time the ideas which they have the rashness to advocate are taken up by established organizations when direct appeals to the latter 'have been long treated with co Here in Canada the influence party upon policies and not been negligible, ers who first led tl and it was the which conducted paign for a fe there were no would Mr. Mei what are virtue alization of the Preve 1f the wide party can usu as a means of Its real value stirs the wat tion. 1t peri for the older agitator does one thinks of ervaded the ural Canada ifficult not grarian mo hat it has rs to take • ponsibilittes and to perform more ef- ficiently their political duties? Their Reel Strength, The real strength �of third parties comes from voters who rally to tem as a means of indicating their hostility to the existing regime, Usually—and too often in a feeble and clumsy way— they represent a forward movement in development of popular government. People who depict theta as the out- bursts of fanatical revolutionaries or dreamy theorists are guilty either of male-volence or simple fatuousness. No third party movement has ever had anyreal e success unless it enjoyed an ample volume of popular support. Third parties cannot hope for an im- mediate fruition for the whole of their ideals and policies. If tihe ideas which they present have a Sound basis of 1 peared at regular intervals. The great d Republican pally itself began its car- A eer as a third party, and after the civ`! r war there came to life in quick succes- e sion the Liberal Republican, the Gran- s ger and the Populist parties. In this century there was the great insurgency of the Progressives in 1952 which Roosevelt led so near to victory and so callously betrayed. The managers of our old parties ought to be thank- ful for the unique freedon from awk- ward interventions of this sort which they have enjoyed. Ir the iestern States. Our third party movement followed established North American precedents, With our neighbors third parties have invariably emerged from the regions west of the Mississippe. The experience Of pioneers on the frontiers of civili- zation always develops individual en- terprise, and a sense of personal in- dependence which in turn breed a dis- position to protest actively against justice and sanity, sootier or later,they will be looked on with favor by a majority of the voters and put into practical operation by some govern- ment n t9 other 0 1e h r 1 1,ulti, if their projectsare undesirable, the electorate will thwart their consummation and visit their displeasure upon such as continue to advocate them, There is, therefore, sound basis for the claim that that the advent of a Itrong third party isnot a sign of nat- ional decay but of real political vitality, It may be inconvenient for the plans of individuals but -1t is not .necessarily bad for the nation. SPEAKS HIGHLY OF BABY'S OWN TABLETS Once a tithe_ has used Daily's Own Tablets for her little ones she Is always pleased to speak highly of them to other mothers. She knows, the good they have done her children and realizes that her experience should be of benefit to others. Con- cerning the Tablets Mrs. Fred Mur- phy, Charlottetown, P, E. I., writes: "1 have used Baby's Own Tablets for the past eight months for my, baby 1 cannot speak too highly of thens for they have been of great assistance to me in my first experience of moth- erhood." Baby's Own Tablets are a mild but thorough laxative which are absolutely harmless and may be giv- en to even the newborn babe - with perfect safety. They are sold by medicine dealers or direct at 25 cts, a box from The Dr, Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. WHAT SHOULD BE PLANTED IN THE FALL W. T. Macoun, Dominion Horticulturist There is such a rush in the spring to get seed sowing and planting done in good time that anything that can be accomplished In the fall to lessen the work in the spring should be done and particularly where fall planting is pre- ferable. At the Experimental Farm, Ottawa it has been found satisfactory, taking th another, to plant trees of the fall.

As 'soon as bulbs can be purchased in the stores they should, if desired, be procured and planted at once as the longer time they have in the ground be- fore winter the better the bloom is like- ly to be in the spring. The bulbs re- ferred to include tulips, narcissus, hya- cinths, crocus, squills and other hardy kinds. eqeseehayae The fall is a good time to plant both rhubarb and asparagus. They may be planted with success any time between now and winker. Ususally there are good results from plantnig seeds of herbaceous peren- nials, trees, and shrubs in the fall, The action of the frost, especially on trees and shurb seeds, stakes germination easier. When seeds of perennials are planted in the fall it is best to wait until just before winter sets in to make sure that the seed will not gernhifhate before winter as if seed germinates a short time before winter the seedling are liable to be killed,' •Seeds'of trees and shrubs, however, and especially of •fruits, should be planted as soon as ripe so as to, prevent their becoming dry. Usually fall planted seeds ger- minate very early in the spring.

"It Is not such a tremendous sheet of water. .Not nearly so Large eat many ether klaskan lakes, being some three toilets long by a half mile wide.

Its bed was evidently Scooped out by glacial action some- where back in those dim ages they tell us about. You can see, even now, the evidences of the glacial moraines, Some plow, those glaciers! "Now, here are the things they tell of that lake. One, that 1t has fish so large that a specimen that a man hooked pulled him out of the boat into the lake. If that isn't a good fish story, then you try to go lee one bet- ter. Other stories that I think are well authenticated are these: That In winter, under the ice is heard a rumbling, groaning sound. So much so that, although the winter trail lies straight across it, the Indians refuse to travel it, and go nil the way round. That in summer there rise periodically great bubbles of gas of some kind, that bubble, and bubble, and finally die away. I tallied with those who have seen this phenomenon. Then two things I found for myself. First, the lake is very deep. It Is sparkling and clear, and shelves rapidly, a few feet from shore, to an unknown depth. Second, it does teem with fish, be- cause I saw them, although I do not know the variety, for heving no prop- er tackle, we did not caret) any. The ones I saw would average two to three pounds. No monsters. But who can say what may inhabit those spark- ling depths? Ugh l" Few Pence Once Day's Wage. The use of beaver in making hats came Into being about 1200, for ('Lan- cer mentions it.

In the Sixteenth century the first hat stores began to do business, and hats, heretofore as widely decorated as poetic fancy, began to be stand- ardized. In other words—style be- gan to rule. By 1600 styles were very changeable. Shakespenre's plays speak ,of varied types of hat then worn, Our ',leeks and Ourselves.

MENNOMNOMINN Every woman's health is depen- dent upon the condition of her blood. How many women suffer with head. ache, pain in the back, poor appetite, weak digestion, a constant feeling of weariness, palpitation of the heart, shortness of breath, pallor and nen. vousness? Of course all these symp- toms may not be present—the more there are the worse the condition of the blood, and the more necessary that you should begin to enrich it without delay. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are a splendid blood -building tonic. Every dose helps to make bet- ter blood which goes to every part of the body and brings new health to weak, despondent people. Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills are valuable to ail women but they are particularly use- ful to girls of school age who become pale, languid and nervous. There can be neither health nor beauty without red blood which gives brightness to the eyes and color to the, cheeks and lips. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills build up the blood as is shown by the ex- perience of Mrs, Jos. E. Veniotte, West Northfield, N. S., who says "For several years 1 was in a bad state of health, I was pale and nerv- ous, my appetite was poor, and 1 suffered from weakness, ' headaches and a feeling of oppression. 1 got so nervous that I was afraid to stay in the house alone. All this time I was taking medicine, but it only did not help me, but 1 was growing weaker, Finally I decided to try Dr, Williams' Pink Pills, and after usng six boxes I felt much better. 1 had a better ap- petite, slept better and felt stronger. However, I continued taking the pills for a couple of months longer and now 1 am feeling as well as ever I did. I give all the credit to Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills, and hope that my experience may be of benefit to some other weak woman." You can get Dr. ..Williams' Pink Pills through any dealer in medicine or by !nail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.5o from The Dr. Wil- liams' Medicine Co,, Brockville, Ont. About Newfoundland ' Newfoundland has an area of 40,000 square miles, or 7,000 square miles less than the area of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. The maximum length of Newfound- land is from Cape Race at the south- east to Cape Norman on the north coast, a distance of 357 Whiles. The extreme breath Is from Cape Spear, near the harbour of St. John's, to' Cape Anguille on the west, a distance of 316 miles. One-third of the surface of New- foundland is covered with lakes, and rivers. The largest lake is Grand Lake, 56 miles in length, 5 miles in breadth, with an area of 192 square miles. tt 1 The boy and the horse chestnut Is contains an island 22 miles long, Its JI to be seen on all Streets. surface is only 50 feet above sea level.
