Hon. Sydney Fisher, minister of agriculture, is having an iuvestigatiou made into the canned meat industries of the Dominion, so as to be able to assure the British buyer of the excellence and purity of the Canadian article. If, dur- ing the coarse of the investigation there should be any reason for regulations or a system of inspection, the minister will no doubt make the necessary recommen- dations to the Government. The canned meat industry is a growing one, and the Government will do everything that is possible to prevent its being injured by the recent disclosures in Chicago. Statisticians in Germany have been utilizing the silly season by calculating what portion of a woman's life is spent in Iooking at herself in a mirror. She begins sea rule at six years. From six to ten she has a daily average of seven minutes, from ten to fifteen she devotes fifteen minutes to her glass, at twenty she spends gaits thirty minutes admiring herself, and aver twenty a whole hour. The statisticians are tactful enough not to say when a lady begins to take less interest in her personal appearance, but women over sixty years, do not, they say, spend more than ten minutes daily at their mirrors. All this time reckoned up amounts to 7,000 hours, or about ten months at the mirror. Men are com- peted to spend or waste seven months at the same occupation. --The Tatler. Supplementary estimates to the amount of $4,667,916 for the nine months ending March 31, I907, were tabled in the Hoose of Commons on Thursday night, making a total of $72,604,463 to be voted for the period named. Of this $54,184,698 is chargeable to consolidated fund, and $18,419,765 chargeable to capital. Accompanying these supple. nrentariee is a further estimate of $85,• 340 for the current fiscal year. The big - TWO KINDS OF FARMERS. (Toronto World) It is evident that many men are eugag. ed in husbandry who would achieve greater auceesa in some other occupation. One class of men are farmers because from force of circumstances they could not find a more congenial profession. Engaged in agriculture are many who would not rise above medioore in any vocation, while another class are always seeking for more knowledge of their pro- fession and strive to improve their hold- ings. In no occupation is robust health of greater advantage thee'in conducting farm operations. No vocation is more coudacive to health and longevity than agriculture, An invalid farmer is han- dicapped in prosecuting his profession, particularly if be is short of capital to ewploy necessary help. So many of the operations of successful agriculture de- mand brawn as well as brains that the farmer with rugged health comes to his task with superior advantage over a sick- ly competitor. It often occurs that even money will not save the season's crops, as adequate help cannot always be obtained even when offered an extravagant price. In no occupation do youth, health and strength represent capital more than in operating a farm. Husbandmen retire on account of the iufirmities of age dia. qualifying them for strenuous physical labor. While much of the work on a farm is performed by horses and improv- ed machinery, the farmer with robust health and a natural inclination for work is the one that will succeed best in any branch of agriculture. There are two classes of farmers, who start with equal opportunities, and one class achieves independenoe while the other remains poor. The one improves the natural advantages of his soil and en- vironments and is particular in executing all his farm operations to have the land in the best possible condition, and uses only the best seed. He is always grading up his stook and delights to give his at- tention to nfa work. The other farmer is not particular in selecting his seed, pre- paring the soil for the crop, or planting at the most favorable season. The farmer who strives to do better each season will succeed, while his neighbor who does not enter into the inspiration of his vocation will prove a failure. The one improves his opportunities, the other neglects them with the result that the former is prosper - ons while the Iatter Iives in the winter of discontent. strengthening medicine to entry them through the day. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are actual food to the starved nerves and tired brains of business women. They actually make the rich red blood thatimparta the bloom of youth and glow of health to women's cheeks. Tbey briug bright eyes, high spirits and make the day's duties lighter. Twelve months ago Miss Mary Oadwell, who lives at 49 Maynard street, Halifax, N, S , was run down. The least exertion would tire her out. Her appetite was poor and fickle, and frequent headaches added to her distress. The doctor treated her for anaemia, but without apparent results. A relative advised her to use Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills, and after using but siz boxes she says she feels like an alto gether different person. She can now eat her meals with zest, the color has re- turned to her cheeks and she feels better and stronger iu every way. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cure blood- lessness just as food cures hunger. That is how they mired Mies Cadwell and it is jest by making rich red blood that they cure such common ailments as indiges- tion, rheumatism, headaches and back- aches, kidney trouble. neuralgia and tbo special ailments which make miserable the lives of so many women and young girls.

Toronto, Jude 20—Tbe run at the City Cattle Market today waa 45 loads, with 025 head of cattle, 082 Sheep and lea bs, 330 hogs, and 68 calves. The run was the smallest and prioee the highest of the season at the Oity Cattle Market today, With only forty. five cars of stook delivered, the market was practically over almost be"ore it had opened. That ie to say that at the regular opening hour there was scarcely a bullock for sate, except those which had been brought off the cars somewhere about the midnight hour, and were held by the sealpera for a rise in the market, The result was that a few of the dealers who were bound to have cattle at any price, were "held up" in good style, as one of the victims put it. As there was so little in the market, however, trausao times were necessarily limited and nar- row in character. The following are the quotations:. Exporters' cattle— Per 100 lbs.

A boy can fool his mother as easily as she can fool his father. Women all ought to favor their - hus- bands smoking, because it consoles them for staying home. Next to putting money in the collec- tion plate a woman takes the moat pride in having her son pass it. The meanest thing a girl can do to a man is to have a dimple on her cheek when he is kissing her on. her lips. When a girl wears white stockings and gets them muddy she might as well have a big moustaohe for all the imprea. slop she can make on men. • Miiuntes of Council meeting held ,lane Remove ink spots from fabrics by flip- 25th.
