They are the ideal home remedy for the baby; being guaranteed to be absolutely free from opialtes or other harmful drugs. They are a gentle but thorough laxative and have been proved of the greatest aid in cases of constipation, indigestion,' colic, colds and simple fevers. Concerning them Mrs. Ernest Gagne, Beausejour, Que., writes: "I have used Baby's Own Tablets for constipation and colic and have found them so successful 'that f would not be without them.

Bottomley's uncle was George Jacob 'Holyoake, the disciple of Robert Owen, and a leader i.n Victorian secularism. Bottomley was brought up in an atmosphere of mingled eocialism and &theism.

He has been through the bankruptcy court and has been ,in Parliament off and on since 1905. In the House he sought to identify himself with small, human matters which could be successfully played up in his papers. He was always original.

This tee dressing should be distributed e-v'nly and not too thickly. If bunchy, it may be thinned out by harrowing which sometimes helps to stlnutlate the growth. Thin' spots in the pasture should receive a new seeding of grass. The use Of a miature „1 six pounds of timothy, two pounds of red clover and one pound of ;:I':ike clover to the acre will give good results. Where there is a partial stand of grass. pos- nidly not more than one-half of this quantity is needed. Only the thin spots will require treatment.

A camp fire left on a portage was the cause. A prospector on the Montreal River started a fire on July 7th which burned over 4,800 acres in Baden Township, destroying 1,000,000 feet of pine and 9,000 cords of pulpwood, and which required attention for a month. A patty of fishermen camped on Porcupine Lake, Burton Township, Parry Sound were responsible for a fire on July 10th which burned over 25,000 acres and 2,000,000 feet of timber. Indians smoking moose meat started a fire on June 26th, which ran through 1,700 acres of young jack pine trees.
