NOTES AND COMMENTS. The returns of emigrants from English Arts to Canada daring the month of September give the numbers as: English, 4,187; Irish, 340; Scotch, 767; foreigners, 3,080. During the previous nine mouths the figures were: English, 42.823; Irish, 2,546; Scotch, 9,877. All signs point to the fact that Cana- dians may as well prepare for a bump when the. Alaska Boundary Commission makes its award. "The result," says the telegraphic report, "will be a coin- promise," No doubt, one of those kind. of compromises where the Yankees get all they want and Canada gets the rest. - Belleville Intelligencer. The report of the Committee of the House of Cowmonson Agriculture states that the export value of Canadian farm and food products in 1890 was 824,000,- , and in 1902 it was $80,000,000, or (i increase of $56,000,000 in ten years. Herein is found the whole explanation of the cause of Canada's present prosper- ity. and of the reason for the flow of im- migration in this direction. An exceptionally rich silk cargo was recently sent East over the Canadian Pacific from Vancouver. It came by the Empress of India, and was valued at $1,728,600. It was sent East by a special train, speed being an important element in this traffic. The raw silk trade via the tianadlan Pacific has been heavier this year than ever before. Van- couver has become the greatest silk port on the continent. The American people since 1865 have paid out three billiou dollars in pensions, the annual average being eighty million, The pension disbursements have been $700,000.000 in excess of the expenditure on the army duriug that period and are nearly thrice the expenditure oa the navy; they were $500,000,000 greater than the total interest ou the public debt. Nearly a million pensioners are on the rolls, over a quarter of a million being widows. When Sir William Mulock took hold of the Canadian postoffice a deficit of $781,000 stared him in the face. He is now able to show a surplus of $292,702, ou the year's operations, but this plain statement does not represent all hie achievement. He has had to extend the postal service to the Yukon, at a loss of $10,000 yearly. If the postal area in Canada were the same as in 1897, he could show a surplus of $395,361. Over and above this he has saved the people of Canada a million dollars by the reduc- tion of rates, and he has given them a better, as well as a cheaper service. Mr. Borden and the G. T. Pacific. From the Ottawa Free Press. • If Mr. Borden bas made a mess of this matter Me inexperience should be gently remembered by his friends, who ought also bear a forgiving mind in con- sideration that he has had a hard row to hoe. What would Sir John Macdonald himself have done in opposition to a great constructive scheme prepared with extreme economy, the utmost care for the public interest, and faithful adapta- tion to the idea of Canadian expansion. What could he have dqne in Opposition had trade been flo urithing in 1876-78 had industry been humming Hader a judicious tariff, had successive and ever increasing surpluses of many millions been h the Treasury, had immigrants of the best quality been swarming into the Dominion, had the Ministry been generally regarded as up-to•date in every department and pushing everywhere the most admirably devised public works? It is not so much the fault of Mr. Bor- den as it is the merit of Sir Wilfrid's management and the effect of the Dom- inion's general prosperity, that the Op- pesition cuts such an amusing figure in asking Canada to put Sir Wilfrid Laurier and Mr. Fielding out that Mr. Borden and Mr. Haggart may come in. Protruding. and Bleeding Piles are positively and permanently cured by Dr. Chase's Ointment. It is popularly believed that nothing short of a surgical operation will cure protruding piles. That this is not so has been proven again and again where Dr. Chase's Ointment has been tested. Me Geo. BAtc>3tk, painter, !o3 Fuller St., parkdale, Toronto,, states :-"When one has received great benefit from a remedy after being disappointed many times, it becomes a pleasure and a duty to recommend it to others. Such is my experience with Dr. Chase's Ointment. For the last eight years I have been a continual sufferer from protruding and. bleeding piles, which seemed worse when walking or working. In fact 1 was in agony with them most of the time. "I tried every remedy I could learn of without any success whatever, until I obtained Dr. Chases Ointment.From the first appli- ,cation of this preparation I felt an improve. *tent, and on each application I experienced 'wonderful relief from suffering. I feel sure of It parturient cure, and shall be delighted to recommend Dr. Chase's Ointment at all Dr. t' hose's Ointment 3s the only guaranteed one for piles. 6o cents a box, at all dealers, er lOdasesteort, Batas sod Co., Tbcoato, RHEUMATISM CURE� A RIGHT WAY AND A WRONG WAY TO TREAT THE TROUBLE. Liniments and Outward. Applications Van. not Cure—The Disease AMuat be Treat. ettThrough the snood. Rheumatism is one of the most eom. neon ailments with which llumauity is afflicted, and there are few troubles which cause more scute suffering. There is a prevalent option, also,, that if a per- son once contracts rheumatism it is bound to return in cold or damp weather. This is a mistake; rheumatism can be thoroughly driven one of the system, hut it must be treated through the blood as it is a blood disease. Rubbing the affect- ed joiuts and limbs with liniments and lotions will never cure rheumatism. though perhaps it may give temporary relief. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have cured more cases of rheumatism than perhaps any other disease except anae- mia. These pills drive the rheumatic poison out of the system by their action on the blood, and the trouble rarely re- turns if the treatment is persisted in un- til the blood is in a thoroughly healthy condition. As au illustratiou of how even the most aggravated form of this trouble yield to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, the case of Mr. J. J. Richards, of Port Co - borne, Ont., may be cited. Mr, Rich- ards says :-"Abont three years ago I suffered from a most severe attack of rheumatism. I could neither lie down nor sit up with any degree of ease, and I am quite sure only those who have been similarly afflicted can understand what agony I have endured. I put myself un- der the care of au excellent doctor but got uo benefit. Then I tried another and still another, with no better results. By this time I had become so reduced in flesh that friends hardly knew me; I could not move hand or foot and had to be turned iu bed in sheets. The pain I endured was something awful. Then I was urged to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and after taking a few boxes there was, au appreciable change for the better; the pains began to leave me, and my joints began to limber. I kept on taking the pills until I had used a dozen boxes, by which time every trace of the trouble had disappeared. I firmly believe that had it not been for Dr. Williams' Pink Pills I would have been a rheumatic cripple for life." These pills not only cure rheumatism, bat all other blood and nerve diseases, such as anaemia, indigestion, kidney troubles, neuralgia, partial paralysis, St. Vitus dance, etc. The genuine pills al- ways bear the fall name, "Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People,"on the wrap- per around every box. Sold by all medi- cine dealers at 50 cents a box, or six boxes for $2.50, or sent by mail, post paid, by writing to the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. Duration of Parliament.

The vital statistics for 1902, as compil- ed by the provincial board of health, show that while marriages and births have been making substantial increases in Ontario, the death roll has decreased. The births last year were 47,796, as compared with 46,06118 1901; an increase of 1,735. Marriages numbered 18,072,aa increase of 37 over 1901. There were 27,864 deaths, against 29,608 in 1902, a decrease of 1,744. Considering the rate per 1,000 of the population, the births were 21.7 in 1902 and 21.1 in 1901; marriages were 8.2 in 1902 and 8.2 in 1901. Deaths were 12.6 in 1902 and 13.6 in 1901. In the cities there were 10,644 births, 5,879 marriages and 7,571 deaths,against 10,047, 5,468 and 8,097 respectively in 1901. Per 1,000 of the population these figures result as follows: 1902, births, 22.2; marriages, 12.2; deaths, 15.8; 1901, births, 21.6; marriages,. 12.1; deaths, 16.6. A Paper for the Farmers.

The Johannesburg Public Library is uow open on Sunday afternoons. The Cathedral of Notre Dame in Paris is now lighted by electricity. It is stated that on Jan. 1, 1903 there were 1,124 bituminous coal mines in op - oration in Penusylvauia as compared with 948 on December 31, 1900.

A flow of words is no proof of wisdom. The rudder of a, yacht is a stern real- ity. A railway time -table -twenty minutes for dinner. No youug man ever considers his best girl too good to be true. Women and opportunity like to make calls when you are out. Many a man who thinks lie is self- made is in reality wife -made. Matrimony is a paying institution -for ministers and divorce lawyers. Talk less and think more. This is good advice to give, but hard to take. It is easier for a woman to conceal her love than it is to hide her indifference, A woman may admit that her husband gets tight, but never that her shoes are. No wonder ayacht jumps up and down when it is forced to get on another tack. While the fool takes things as they come the wise guy goes after what he wants. When society turns out to see the horse show, the horse hasn't much show. Some husbands believe that beauty inexpensively adorned is adorned suf- ficiently. All is not gold that pays 6 per cent. dividend and calls for a 12 per cent. assessment. Many a man who wakes up and finds himself famous goes to hed again and sleeps it off. An Irish philosopher says the trouble with some men is that they can't believe half the lies they tell. It is the man who puts his hand reso- lutely to the grind stone that keeps the other fellow's nose there. Man wants but little here below, but when he fails to got it, he howls just as if he wauted the earth. After it became apparent that clothing was the correct thing, it was Eve who said to Adam, "I told you so." William Miller, aged 19 years, was killed at Wardsville by falling into a threshing machine. -Noah was the first man to advertise. He advertised the flood and it came al- right. The fellows who laughed at the advertising got drowned and it served them r°ght. Ever since Noah's time the advertiser has been prospering, while the other fellow is being swallowed up iu the flood of disaster. A Little Country Paper.

It ain't a thing o' beauty an' its print ain't always clean, But it straightens out his temper when a feller'a feelin' mean, It takes the wrinkles off his face an' brushes off the frown, That little country paper from his Ol' Home Town, It tells of all the parties an' the balls of Pumpkin Row, 'Bout who spent Sunday with who's girl an' how th' cro s'lI grow, An' ow it keeps a fellow oa e'bout who's up an' who is down, That little country paper from his Ol' Home Town. How, I like to read the dailies an' the story papers, too, An' at times the yeller novels an' sem° other trash -don't yon?

CAUSED A LITTLE SENSATION Wished Those Who Did Not Undentiont the Motives of the Tribunal Would Abstain Front Attrlbutin; Motives Which Did Nut Exist -Pleasant Things Said at Lord Bayer's Rinner. London, Oct. 14. -The members o1 the counsel and the attaches of the Alaskan Boundary Tribunal were en- tertained by the Lord Mayor of Loa don, Sir Marcus Samuel, at a ban- quet at the Mansion house last night. Attorney -General Finlay and Sir Edward Carson wore notable ab- sentees, but most of the others as- sociated with the case were present. It was a memorable occasion, attend- ed by all the ancient customs, loving cups, city liveries and gorgeously appareled footmen, The Lord Mayor proposed tl} health of President Roosevelt, whil& the band played the "Star Spangled Banner," Then His Lordship pro- posed the toast of the "Alaskans Boundary Tribunal." He declared that the present method of the sub- mission to a tribunal of a dangerous dispute between two great nations would bo a lasting lesson of peace to the world. Lord Chief Justice Alverstone, ia- replying, after referring to the death of Sir Michael 'Torbert, said that though the Tribunal was not an il- lustration of arbitration, it was "aa honest and patriotic attempt to solve by mutual discussion subjects which might become serious. I have no fault to find with anything that has been said and done. We have pro- ceeded with great unanimity, and I only wish that those who do not un- derstand the motives of the Tribunal would abstain from attributing mo- tives to its members which do not. exist." This open reference to Canadian criticism of Lord A1vorstone's sup- posed pre -disposition towards the, American case caused no little sensa- tion. It was followed by Lord Al- verstone somewhat passionately de- claring that in a long public career he had never objected to criticism after he had taken a certain course of action, but he did bitterly resent criticism beforehand. Secretary Root followed with a speech. Amid intense silence he de- picted Sir Michael ,Herbert's sweet reasonableness "and the loss sus- tained by both nations by the Am- bassador's death." "Some thought," continued Mr. Root, "that the Americans and Ca- nadians came to London because Alaska was a wonderland of claim- ants, but the greatest object lesson, of the whole proceeding was that the United States had such trust in Great Britain that she was willing to meet and discuss a question vital to her, not in a neutral capital, blit in a capital belonging to one party to the controversy, Nothing could more emphasize the absolute confi- dence of all parties in the good faith, generous hospitality and' fair play of the English people." Sir Louis Jette echoed the senti- ments expressed by Mr. Root on be- half of Canada, and Senator Lodge declared that the rapidity of the proceedings was a lesson to all na- tions who avoided such a pacific me - shod of settlement on the ground of prolonging procedure. Messrs. Dickinson and Robinson re- sponded on behalf of America and Canada respectively, and Ambassa- dor Choate proposed the health of the Lord Mayor and Lady Samuel. WHAT IT IS BASED ON. Ground Por Believing Lord Alverstone Will Sld• With Yankees. Ottawa, Oct. 14, -In tho Commons yesterday, Sir Wilfrid Laurier read the following cable from Lord Alver- stone, the chairman of the Alaskan Boundary Tribunal: "Laurier, Ottawa: "London, Oct. 13. -There is not the slightest foundation for state- ment attributed to me in Reuter telegram from Ottawa, dated 12th Oatobor, as to questions in House of Commons on that date. I have made no communication of any kind to any diplomatic officials or to any person respecting the case. The re- port is an absolute fabrication. (Signed) "Alverstone." In reply to Mr. Borden, Sir Wilfrid Laurier said that no cablegram had . been received from Mr. Aylesworth. Mr. Aylesworth Speaks. London, Oct. 14. -Nothing was giv- en out regarding the deliberations of the Alaskan Tribunal, which adjourn- ed till to -day. Mr. Aylesworth, the Canadian Commissioner, in relation to the question in tho Dominion Parliament. Monday on the subject of an inter- view with him, yesterday made the following statement to the Associat- ed Press: "Being asked a few days ago whe- ther there was any likelihood that the decision of tho Tribunal would be influenced by diplomatic consider- ations, Mr. Aylesworth replied, speaking for himself, that he cer- tainly would never consent to give away, a single inch of territory he believed to be British." The Canadian story created some concern. It appears certain that nei— ther Mr. Aylesworth nor Sir Louis Jetts has the slightest intention of agreeing to the American arguments. The Americans still have no roma to diminish their feeling of hopefal— nees that some agreement will bot retehed, this feeling is largely based; on the trend of Lord .Alweretone'r terpolations during the argument.
