Stanfleld's Unshrinkable
Underwear
Is made from the finest Nova Scotia Wool,
which is famous for its softness, strength and
elasticity, not found in any other wool in the
world -and Stanfield's is the only Underwear
in the world made from it.
Warm Enough for It is knitted to de-
fy 4o and 5o below
the Northwest . . zero, without being
heavy or clumsy. It
is made for Canadian people, to protect them
against Canadian winters. Imported Underwear
is all right for England, but not for Canada.
The Very Thing When working all day
in the cold, ordinary
for the Farmer. underwear is not warm
enough, but Stanfield's
being in special weight and knitted in a peculiar
way, is what he wants. All sizes and weights
to suit anybody and everybody -tall or short -
stout or slim. Every garment fully guaranteed.
Your money back if it shrinks. Wear their, this
winter, and you'll always wear them. Come in
and see them.

-Two men, Senator Clark of Mon-
tana and E. H. Harriman have built a
railway 778 miles Iong, costing forty
million dollars. The peculiarity of
this railway is that it has been built
with its rolling stock, stations, etc.,
and paid for without the sale of a
dollar's worth of bonds. The road
runs from Salt Lake City to San Pe-
dro, on the Pacific ocean, the seaport
of Los Angeles. The road runs
through and will open up a rich min-
, eral territory in Utah and Nevada.

watched with interest by those who
abhor corruption.
-According to figures furnished by
the Government Bureau of Statistics
there are consumed its the United
States in one year about 40,000,000
barrels of beer, 98,000,000 gallons of
proof spirits, and 30,500,000 gallons of
wine. These drinkables, sold at re-
tail, take out of the pockets of con-
sumers in a single twelvewonth the
stun of $1,454,119,858. It is a good
deal of money, and one is tempted to
consider what it could accomplish if it
were put to really useful purposes,
instead of being practically thrown
away. It would provide 50,000 fami-
lies or 2,500,000 people -more than the
entire population of the States of New
Hampshire, Rhode Island, Vermont,
Maine, North Dakota, and Montana -
with comfortable homes, clothing and
provisions for twelve whole months.
To each family it would give $350 for
provisions, $80 for clothing, $30 for
shoes, $20 for newspapers, magazines,
and books, $50 for church and chari-
table purposes, and would build for
each family a house costing $1,500,
with $350 to furnish it -thus bestow-
ing upon each one of the 50,000 fami-
lies $2,380, and leaving a balance of
$264,119,000 to erect 52,818 churches
each costing $5,000.

-During recent years, there has
been a great improvement in the
country roads of Ontario. This is due
to several causes : 1st -More attention
has been paid to them. 2nd -Provin-
cial aid in some cases has stimulated
effort. 3rd -In municipalities where
Statute labor has been abolished, bet-
ter and more permanent work has
been done. An official statement says
that the Province has 60,000 miles of
country road under the control of
county and township councils. Since
the movement for better conditions
started there has been a radical im-
provement in their condition. In the
year 19034 over 1,600 miles of main
roads were improved at an expendi-
ture of $500,000, the provincial aid
being one-third of the entire cost.
The movernent has led to the intro-
duction of modern grading machines,
stone crushers, road rollers, gravel
waggons and scrapers in place of the
crude methods and implements of the
time when statute labor was chiefly
relied upon to keep the roads in re-
pair. From the public report it is
gathered. that drr inage is given the
greatest attention, tile being used
with frequent outlets, leading to nat-
ural water courses, and concrete cul-
verts have taken the place of them

gent and often excessive requirements.
While the cost of construction has
been enormous, no (iov-ernnleut assis-
tante by way of laud or stoney grants
has been given, and the railways have
paid their full share of taxation.
Local taxes cost theist $2.2,000,000 a
year, This item of expense increases
$1,200,000 a year. They have no voice
in local expenditures, even when for
the construction of competing street
car lines. They have no adequate
means of protesting against local as-
sessments; -"They pay the national in-
come tax, carry soldiers at greatly re-
duced rates, tend the mails on terms
fixed by the Government, as well as
the parcel post, American and Cana-
dian railroads make a large propor-
tion of their profits from the long
hauls, but the British roads have prac-
tically all short hauls and small con-
signments. The average haul on Bri-
tish roads is twenty-five miles, and
the average consignment under one
hundred. pounds. But in spite of these
hindrances British rates are generally
much lower. Eight cents will carry a
two -pound parcel two hundred miles
compared to twenty-five cents in the
United States. At two hundred miles
and twenty-five pounds, the average
American and British parcel rates are
the same, fifty cents, but thereafter
for heavier packages and greater dis-
tances the British rate is ' lunch
higher.

source of the disease, -it's healing
vapor repairs the damage caused by
catarrhal inflammation. "Catarrho-

to those tiny cells and passages that
ordinary remedies can't reach, goes
where the disease actually is. Impos-
sible for Catarrhozone to fail as any
doctor trill tell you. Don't be misled
into thinking there is anything so
good as "Catarrhozone",-use it and
you'll soon say good-bye to catarrh.
