CRIPPLING SCIATICA A Sure and Certain Way .to Cube this Terrible. Torture. There is just one ante, Scientific cure for sciatica, rheumatism, Lumbago, ileur- alXi tt b,eadaahes-yea must drive the pain from your blood and nerves with Dr Wilhelm' Pink Pills. Liniments never cure nerve and blood diseases, Dr, Williams' Pink Pins strike straight at the cause because they actually make new blood. Through the blood they conquer the painful poison, soothe the naives, loosen the mnsolee and banish every ache and pain. Mr. Thos. J. Et - sell, Walkerton, Qat , says: "When I began using Dr, Williams' Pink Pills I had been off work for three months The cords of neyright leg were all drawn . up and I could only limp along with the aid of a stick. The pain I aned was terrible Oaly those who le e been af- rstand the d night. I fiictt d with sciatica can an misery I was in both dayq took six boxes, every vest ge of the pain had disappeared. Iiia no hesitation in pronounoing Dr,, iams' Pink Pills the, best medicine in the world for scia- tica." Every dose of Dr Williams' Pink Pills makes rich, pure, healtk-giving blood. That is why they cure headaches and baokaches, indigestion, kidney and liver troubles, anaemia, heart palpitation, and the ills that afflict women only. But be sure you get the genuine pills with the full name, "Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People," on the wrapper around each box. Imitations are worthless - often dangerous. All medicine dealers sell these pills or you can get them by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2 50 by writing The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. Dr. Bryce, Medical Snperintenent of Immigration before the Agriculturist Committee at Ottawa said there were 123,867 immigrants subject to inspection at the ports of Canada last year, of which number 2,559 were detained. Of this latter number all were sent to hospital, and, except for.150, all on ac- count of disease. Oat of 2,559 there were 611 deported for various causes. Sir Henri Taschereau, who was grant- ed six months' leave of absence, and whose resignation has been, expected for some time, has at last retired from the Chief Justiceship sof the Supreme Court Itis stated that he will be succeeded by Icon. Chas. Fitzpatrick, and that Hon. A. B. Aylesworth will become Minister of Justice. Mr. Fitzpatrick's appoint• anent to the Bench will not be made for some time. He will clean off all arrears of work before leaving. It's all beneath your hat, sir; under- neath the spot where you part your hair, that is where your thot lies, that is the spot that makes you rich or poor, a great man or an ignoble one. Your hat will wear out, your hand will weaken, the engine of your body will slow down as the fires grows dim; there will be a flicker, then darkness and death you are gone. Gone, did I say; no, never; the thot you Ieft remains. Thot is supreme. -Raymond's Record. Mr. Fielding, in reply to Mr. W. F. Maclean, in the House of Commons, gave the following list of payments of annuities to ex•Privy Councillors under the statute of last year: -Sir Hector Langevin, $2,446 18; Sir Charles Tupper, $2,154 52; Sir Mackenzie Bowel', $2,795 - 67; Sir Adolphe P. Caron, $2,446 18; Sir John Carling, $2,416 18; Hon. Geo. E. Foster, $2,446 18; Hon. Clifford Sifton, $2,44618; Hon. J. L Tarte, $2,154.52; Hon. John Costigan, $2,446.18; Hon. John Haggart, $2,446 18; Hon. A. G. Blair, $2,44618. Sir Hibbert Tapper and lilr. Tarte had been paid to February 28 and the others to the end of March. A lustre has passed since the last mining shares debacle, and the public memory is short. Therefore the invita- tion of the brokers to "walk into my parlor" will be very extensively accept- ed.

The receipts of the Provincial Secre- tary's department for the current year promise to beat all previous records by a very large margin. Up to Monday the gross receipts from Jan 1 totaled $70,665, an increase of $23,847. The total gross receipts for 1905 were $131,- 914. So that the first four months of this year show a total of more than half what was received last year. There are 1,840,280 more men than women in the United States, and the same proportion prevails in almost every other country. The only exception is in Paraguay, where there are more than twine as many women as men. This is due to the fact that some years ago, in a political revolution and a war with Brazil and the Argentine Republic, the men were almost exterminated. CANADA BEATS THE WORLD. the Eastern. Provinces is another source of immediate danger that shonId not be overlooked. The noxious nature of .pew weede that are being introduced in var- ious ways is seldom well understood or their danger appreoiated by farmers un- til they have become well established. The Dominion ,and Provincial Depart. mente of Agriculture are more than ever alive to these dangers which threaten to become a serious loss in crop production and in the Eastern Province they are co- operating again this year in holding field meetings during the month of June when weeds, insects, fungus diseases and plant growth aro most in evidence, Seventy of these field meetings are be• ing arranged by Supt. G. A. Putman, in connection with the Farmers' Institute System of Ontario. The services of Prof, Lochhead of the McDonald Agri- cultural College at Ste. Anne de Beli- evae have bean secured to conduct simi- lar farmers' nature study meetings in the three Maritime Provinces. Here is provided an opportunity for farmers to get at first hand, information that can- not be given or demostrated in hall meetings during the winter months. SE.11 ORTH.

Canada hfia to -day the biggest railway mileage compared to population of any country in the world, There is at pres- ent constructed and in operation one mile of railway to every 290 inhabitants. The United States, with all its progress in railway building, has but one mile of railway to 378 people; France, one mile to 1,317 people; Germany, one mile to 1,818 people; Great Britain, one mile to 1,850 people; Russia, one mile to 3,400 people. These interesting statistics, compiled for the Engineering Journal of Canada, show that railway building must take rank as Canada's greatest constructional problem. The first railway built in Canada, says the Engineering Journal, was the St. Lawrence and Champlain, rails of wood with spiked strips of iron, opened in 1836. And in those days the optimistic "tout" who predicted that Canada,in exactly the lifetime of one man, 70 years,would have built and manned 20,601 miles of modern railway, world have been put in Cana- da's first lunatic, asylum. In 1861 -just a quarter of a century agog --Canada had 1,800 miles of railway, carrying 1,825,000 passengers; 1,450,446 tons of freights, and earning an aggre- gate of $6,722,660 on a paid-up capital of $38,278,986. On Jane 30th, 1005, there was 20,601 miles of railway in Canada, LOWER WINGRAM.. Following is the standing of pupils based on promotion examinations in S. S. No 11, Turnberry: SR.

Command the respect of your em- ployees by the integrity of your businese method. 4. Have confidence in the ability of your employees until they prove them- selves unworthy. 5. Pay a just amount for labor per- formed. A cheap man is a poor invest- ment. 6. Treat those beneath you with re- spect and they will return the compli- ment. 7. Do not waste your breath in swear- ing and storming around the office. The same amount of energy expended to- wards improving your business may make you a wealthy man. No amount of swearing ever sold a dollar's worth of goods or improved the work of an em- ployee. 8. Be courteous and considerate to all of your employees if you wish them to be courteous to your customers. 9. Do not be continually finding fault. A little encouragement will of. ten do more than any amonnt of fault finding. 'Let it be known that when you give a reprimand it is for just cause. Do not reprimand for the same mistake re- peatedly. Gib rid of the employee, if once has not been sufficient. A number of cheap useless hangers-on clog the 'Wheels of business. 10. Be just and honest in the office, as well as outside of it, and the success that Drowns work well done will be yours.

The demand was very active during the earlier hours of the market, and the choicest butcher cattle were picked up at good prices. There was a brisk de- mand for, good botcher cows, a number of buyers from the outside taking all they could get. After the early trading •there was a slow market, and prices fora few loads of off quality easels off slightly.
