EDITORIAL NOTES.
The corrected figures for the opera-
tions of the Intercolonial Railway dur-
ing the year ending March 31 last, show
that the gross income of the road am-
ounted to $9,863,783. In addition to
the ordinary general and operating ex-
penses of the railway, the government
paid out of this sum $600,000 on equip-
melit account, $25,000 a month for re-
newal of equipment, chargeable to rev-
enue, $76,000 to meet losses by fire at
Campbellton, N. B., and $5,000 a month
for a new fire protection system. After
Inaking these expenditures there re-
mained a surplus of $272,712.
The British Empire has been made
by men, not by machinery, It has been
the pride of Britons that their political
constitution was a natural and human
growth, a gradual and historical adapt-
ation of and to circumstances, and
therefore a healthy and humane, free
and elastic organism, rather than a
rigid organization. The British consti-
tution is not the hand -made, however
skillful, finished document which holds
the United States in a vise, and begins
to embarrass Australia. It is not a
made -in -Germany machine. And the
same may be said Sof the British Em-
Aire, London Advertiser.
There was passed through the Cus-
toms here a few days ago for a com-
pany in Forest, Ont., a consignment of
27,772 trees en which $833 duty was
paid, peach trees, plum trees, pear
trees and apple trees. These are to be
planted by this company on lands ithas
secured in the neighborhood of Forest.
This is done in the face of the probab-
ility that the reciprocity pact will go
through and speaks more eloquently
and authoritively on the bearing of
reciprocity on the fruit -growing indus-
try of Canada than aIIthe super -heated
editorials and speeches that have pour-
ed forth like lave from the Conserva-
tive platform for the last six months.

Dr. MacDonald, the editor of The
Globe, is going to England, it is said, to
promote the movement for placing the
relationship of Great Britain and the
United States on a perpetualpeace has -
ie.. It is a man's work, and it is a work
for which Dr, MacDonald has shown
both inclination and fitness, Canada is
directly and specially interested in the
peace movement and should not begrudge
to do her best arid give her best for its
promotion. The proposal to mark the
centenary of peaee on the international
border by the adoption of a treaty be-
tween Great Britain and the United
States is one that will appeal to the
highest patriotism of this country.

Not by Treaty g the Symptoms
but by Toning op the Stomach
to do Uatura's Work.
Indigestion should not be neglected
for by depriving the body of its proper
nourishment it grows steadily worse.
Neither stimulatmg medicines, which
ruin the already weak stomach by mak-
ing it work beyond its strength, should
be used, nor pre-digested foods, which
do not excite • a flow of the digestive
fluids, and bv disuse cause the stomach
to grow weaker. Nowhere is the tonic
treatment with Dr, William's Pink
Pills more clearly useful. It's princi-
ple is to enable the stomach to do its
own work by building up the blood and
giving tone to the nerves, When these
are once more restored to their normal
health indigestion disappears and the
cure is permanent. In proof of these
statements we give the experience of
Mrs. Paul Gannon, Star they, Sask.,
who says: "For more than a year I
suffered with all the terrible pains of
indigestion, and my life was one of the
greatest misery. It did not seem to
make any difference whether I ate or
not, the pains were always there, often
accompanied by a severe bloating and
a belching of wind. I did not even get
relief at night, and sometimes hardly.
got a bit of sleep in my misery, Itried
many remedies said to cure indigestion,
but they did me not one particle of good
and I fully expected that I would al-
ways be afflicted in this way. At this
time my brother came home. on a visit
and he urged me to try Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills and got six boxes for me
By the time I had taken four boxes I
began to improve and could eat with
some relish. I was greatly cheered,
and continued taking the Pills until alt
traces of the trouble had disappeared
and I could once more eat all kinds of
food without the smallest inconven-
ience. We have since used Dr. Willi-
ams' Pink Pills in our family for other
troubles. I am so firmly convinced of
their virtue as a family medicine that I
have no hesitation in recommending
them to all weak, ailing people,"
Sold by all medicine dealers or by
mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for

Co., Brockville, Ont.
LIVE STOUR AL
Toronto, May 15—Union Stock Yards
—Receipts, 144 cars, with 3,066 head
of cattle, 74 calves, 23 hogs, and 18
horses.
With such a large run of cattle offer-
ing, trade was slow, particularly for
the heavy cattle. Buyers were present
in good numbers, and there was a de-
mand for both the butcher trade and
for export, but a very determined ef-
fort to break prices down a little below
Last week led to long haggling between
the buyers and sellers, with the result
that finally the buyers got the best of
the argument, and the cattle were
weighed up at an average of ten to
fifteen cents off for butchers, and five
to ten cents off for butchers.
There was a. good demand for feed-
ers and stockers, this class selling good
and firm.
There were no sheep and lambs on
the market. Quotations unchanged.
Hogs—Market steady, but a little
weaker than at the close of last week.
Selects are quoted unchanged at $5,75,
