The Lan- cet states that it would appear that flies are attracted by a weak solution of formaldehyde whichthey drink. Some die in the water, others get as far only as the immediate vicinity of the plate of water, but all ultimately succumb, and where they appear in large numbers hundreds may be swept from the floor. - Children Cry FOR FLETCHER'S CASTOR1A It has been noted than an experiment was carried on at the Wisconsin station as to the effects of salt and lack of salt on cows. Salt was kept away from some cows for a long time—a number of months—and a condition of low vitality ensued, which when con- tinued at some length, resulted in a general breakdown. When salt was again supplied, they recovered at once. It was observed that the time of break- ing down came about the time of calv- ing, and the best cows showed this tendency most. And so these facts show the value of regular salting of milk cows, which should not be neg- lected. Fell in a Faint Mrs. Edwin Martin, Ayer's Cliff, Que., writes: "Before using Dr. Chase's Nerve Food I was in a terrible condition. Dizzy spells would come over me and I would fall to the floor. I could not sweep without fainting. Dr. Chase's Nerve Food has so built up my system that I can wash and do my housework. Your medicine cured me when doctors had failed."

DON'TS FOR ENGAGED GIRLS. Don't be jealous—if you can help it If you can't, don't show it. A man is always irritated (even if fllattered) by a show of jealously and suspicion. Don't recent his attentions to your girl friends. An engaged man doesn't usually want to flirt if he's in love with his sweetheart, and any little civilities he may chow your friends are intended as a compliment to you. Don't try to keep him from baseball, football or any other game he may like. By doing so you will make him keener on it. Have your own way in everything, but don't let him know it. Let him think he is having' his, and he will always do just what you want him to. Any woman who can make a man do as she wishes—if she knows the way. Don't worry or argue, just find out the way. Don't spoil him. Don'tldesert your men friends. Should you catch him flirting, don't mope or sulk. Go and do likewise. This is far wiser than appearing hurt. Don't be to selfish, and don't en- courage selfishness in him. Don't tell him too many secrets— your own or your friends'. Don't be angry if he shows jealousy. Men are always jealous when they care for a girl—sometimes even when they don't. Don't be too exacting. He won't want to drop all his old "pals" alto- gether. ae Maxims. Don't forget that when a man is seen carrying chips op his shoulder, people are apt to mistake him for a blockhead., Every wise man has a parachute of prudence attached to his ballon of en= thusiasm. There are thousands of men who have stood adversity for years, and who have then gone all to pieces over a few days prosperty. Study the causes that led to the suc- cess of other men and apply their prin- ciples to your business. There are things that are right to say —but not to everybody. Every man thinks he is one in athou- sand, but sometimes he is only one of the ciphers. Co-operative and assist; do not criti- cize and find fault. • Neur=algia and Sciatica elauscd great suffering for 25 years. Nothing effective until Dr. Chase's Medicines were Used.

ADMIT LAIJRiER'S VICTORY. A very good pointer on the real opin- ion of the Conservative party as to the result of the elections on September 21. is to be found in a circular recentlysent out by the canning combination of Western Ontario to the wholesale gro- cers of the Dominion. In thiscircular, which bears the signatures of two men who were Conservative members of the House of Commons recently dissolved, this statement is made: "The reciprocity agreement bet- ween Canada and the United. States will very probably be approved by the electorate on September 21 next at the general elections, it is of the greatest importance that wholesale merchants should now secure full supplies of can- ned beans and peas because at the session which will follow the elections, Sir Wilfrid Laurier, returned to power, will not fail to have the agreement ratified by Parliament, and this will mean an increase in the price of beans and peas of fifty cents a bushel." This is the business man's view, which indicates that the farmer will get increased prices for his products under reciprocity, coupled with a con- fession that the Conservative cause is again doomed to defeat. IMPORTATION OF SHEEP. "There is nothing mysterious about the importation of United States sheep into Canada at the present time," said Mr. Henry Arkell of Arkell, one of the largest breeders of sheep in Canada, and for years a prominent Conserva- tive. "The tariff against Canadian sheep imposed by the United States is responsible for it. If the tariff was removed the Canadian sheep producers would be encouraged to go into the production of sheep more extensively. The reason there are United States sheep coming in here at present is that there is a shortage of the Canadian article. There has been a large in- crease in the population from the old land in the past few years, and they are all consumers of mutton. The tariff restrictions and the limited mar- ket that has resulted since the intro- duction of the Dingley tariff by our United States neighbors are responsible for the shortage. This tariff has dis- couraged the raising of sheep for mut- ton purposes in Canada, and where a man had a large flock of sheep previous to the passing of that legislation he has not more than five per cent. now of his former flock. If the trade agree- ment is passed and tariff restrictions removed we can look for a remarkable boom in the sheep industry in Canada. It is the veriest nonsense to say that the throwing open of the sheep market between the two countries will kill the industry in Canada, for there is really no industry of that kind here to kill. Remove the tariff and watch the Cana- dian sheep industry grow. I voted Conservative for years, but I am for the trade ageement." THE OTHER WAY. The manufacturer knows how help- ful protection is to his business. Why does he think that the farmers does not know how helpful reciprocity will be to his? is the query of the Toronto Star which, continuing, points out the better way the manufacturer might have pursued in regard to this matter - Protection, when introduced in Can- ada, was recommended as a means for bringing about just such a bargain with the United States as has now been brought about. If, instead of fighting the reciprocity agreement, the protected interests and the Conservative party, which is the Protectionist party. had greeted it with approval as a culmination long looked for, and as a deserved reward to the farmers of Canada, who had so long and cheerfully borne the taxation which a protectionist policy had imposed on them, how much stronger would have been the position of these people than it will be after reciprocity has been carried in spite of them, and in the face of their furious but vain re- sistance? This was the way Mr. F. W. C. Haultain, Conservative leader in Saska- atchewan, would have fronted the mat- ter. He would have said that recipro- city has been the polidy of both part- ies, but of his party particularly. He would have argued that Sir John Mac- donald paved the way for this, and he could have quoted the reciprocity clause in the National Policy Ant as proof. He would have shown that of eleven offers of reciprocity made by Canada to the United States nine had been made by the Conservative party. He would have told the protected interests, whose mastering desire it is to see the "tariff on polities," that they could begin it, and pretty wel ensure it,b recognizing freetrade in natural products as basically and his- torically a part of the proteetiohist theory and that reciprocity should be out of polities, too, ut the other course Watt taken Thousands of Conservative farmers regret it now, and probably a great many others will do so after Sept: 21.
