THE RESPONSIBILITY
OF EVERY MOTHER
The child in the (tome is a never-
failing- source of joy, but, at the same
time a never -failing responstbiiity to
the fond mother. It not infrequently
happens that minor ailments of the
child distress and puzzle her. She does
not know just what to do, yet feels
them not serious enough to warrant
calling in the doctor. a At just such
times as these it is found that Baby's
Own Tablets are the mother's great-
est
reatest help and friend.
"Most childhood ailments arise in
the digestive tract -the bowels be-
come clogged and the stomach sour.
Belly's Own Tablets are a never -fail-
ing relief for this condition. They are
a mild but thorough laxative and
througir their action on the stomach
and bowels they banish constipation
and indigestion; breakup colds and
simple fever; allay the pain accom-

CANADA HAS A BiG FUTURE
According to the Dominion Bureau
of Statistics, the national wealth of
Canada 111 1927 was $27,687,000,000,
and was increasing at tete rate of
$900,000,009 a year. If these figures
are accurate, the per capita wealth
of Canada two years ago was $2,900,
In '1922 the wealth of the 'United
States was estimated at $320,000,000,-
000 and its population at 108,000,000.
This gives a lel' capita wealth of about
$3,000.
The ratio of wealth to population
is thus very nearly the same in both
countries.,. This may surprise some
people who have listened to American
boosters and Canadian pessimists,
There is nothing the matter with
Canada. indeed, in some respects
she Is' better, off than . the United
States, Alberta, for instance, claims
that only one-sixth of her 60,000.000
-acres capable' of agricultural develop-
ment are being farmed; she has 90,-
000 trillion tons of coal which have
scarcely been scratched; she. has 12,-
000,000
2,000,000 acres of forest reserves, anti
a large number of lakes which can
support a thriving fishing industry,
No wonder her population has in-
creased from 78,000 to 617,000 in a
quarter century.
Saskatchewan with 8.78 per cent. of
Canada's population, owns 10,83 per
cent. of her wealth, and is still but

every reader who falls within the
company's classifications, the Boolhes-
ter Democrat' and Chronicle , goes
dealer into the subject, trying not to
appear too serious—thus:
"One learns that at the age of twen-
ty a yottgg man has a 41 per cent:
chance, of being alive and married
within the next ten years, but wheth-
er this is to be taken as an encourage-
ment of a warning, the, company does

somewhat higher percentage of matri•
menial risk than the boy, but after
that age her stock begins to go down,
while for the young, man it rises, and
he is in Increasing danger of the altar
until he reaches middle age. •
"The one momentous fact 'that we
can discover from a study of the
whole situation is that there is no
period from the age of fifteen years
upward that one is_ entirely immune
from the possibility of marriage. '50
be sure, the percentage of likelihood
declines as years advance, and it ap-
pears that a man of fifty-five has only
a 10 per cent. prospect of marrying
within the next ilve years. But so
long as that percentage of possibility
remains in any age, how can one be
sure? Why may matrimony not
strike in one place just as much as in
another?"
Before the age of twentylive, the
suriey shows tate average young man
is hardly marriageable, because he is
not yet earning a living for ,two, plus
the anticipated additions. Many, In
fact, have not yet decided upon their
line of work at that age, and, as the

them are etill immature in judgthent.
"Yet," remarks that paper, "It is be-
tween
etween seventeen anis twenty-ftve, as
e,rule, that girls make the great de-
cision of their lives, as often opposed
as aided by their parents. It is an
axiom of married life that every one
marries a stranger. The wonder—as
Robert Louis Stevenson asserted—is
not that so many matrimonial barks
go on the rocks, but that so many
come safely to port."
