also goes through u laboratory test.Duck that looks alright and feels alright is often rejected because it does not measure up to specifications which we know to be the best for making tires.This preliminary testing, careful inspection at every stage of manufacture and mechanical test of the finished tires, convert varying material; into a product of No-Rim-Cut Tires which give every purchaser increased tire mileage.10% Oversize Saves 25% The car manufacturer provides tire equipment for ordinary loads.But men will overload their cars.They wiil add heavy equipment that is not provided for by the manufacturer.No-Rim-Cut Tires are fully 10% over the rated size.Experts will tell yon that each 5% increase in size adds 15% extra mileage.When we place the adder] mileage at 25%, we feel that we are estimating conservatively what the average '-ar owner may expect from No-Rim-Cut Tires.EAR No-Rim-Cut Tires Fit all Standard Makes of Rim You have a friend who can «how you the saving in tire co*t made by these tiret.Aik to »ee hi* mileage record*.\t- f 68 ft g i | THE GOODYEAR TIRE & RUBBER CO.OF CANADA^ S \u201d S ?Head Office, TORONTO UMITED\tFactory, Bowmanville \u2014 \u2014 Ë fra.Solos hy Rev.Air.McLean ai;d Mrs.Bollock and n recitation I y Miss Winifred Il.ii -, The proceeds were given to the Oliristian Endeavor Society.The many friends of Miss Malien in Danville were s-orry to learn if her death in Richmond on Thumlnv e vening.Miss Malien had been a long sufferer from rtn Incinnhle disease.Her death is greatly regretted here.The funeral takes place on Saturday in Montreal.Mr.Fred Barlow has returned from his trip to the Lower Provinces.Mr.Barlow went in the interests of Iris weather strip business.He reports good sales sill along;

to give, as far as practicable, to the poorest the material advantages which the rich man is able to command.\u201cThe rich man\u2019s advantages\u2014what are they?Wholesome food, \u201e healthy, well lighted house, with an ample supply of pure water, a bathroom, a gobd library and beautiful pictures, a fine park/ aml gardens, carriages to take him.atyiut, telephones to enable him to speak, to phobie at a distance on' business ot Social\" or\" to send for a doctor instantly when disease invades the household; nursing homes and private hospitals to which to send his dear ones when isolation is , necessary, and, lastly, provision for his old age.These are all at the disposal of the rich, and it ought to be the aim of wise statesmanship to make them available for the other classes of the community.\u201cGlasgow corporation, I am glad to say, has long taken a leading part in this direction.\u2019\u2019 The Lord Mayor of Liverpool remarks upon the same subject.\u201cModern civilization, with its rapid, and permanent annihilation of space, has brought in its train a deeper intelligence and a stronger vitalizing influence amongst the people of the world.The idea of t 'narating nations holds far less strength than the idea of a common brotherhood\u2014 of a citizenship which knows no geographical distinction; and in this city thère is a strong civic patriotism.It shows itself in the better housing of the people, a quick find ready transit to the outer areas for healthy dwellings and the rational amusement, the provision of a garden suburb, the making of broad main avenues in the city and an ever broadening development of commerce and industry.These are some of the ways in which this civic pride is being illustrated.'' As ft part of their administration of a growing city, the civic authorities of Sherbrooke should inaugurate an investigation into housing conditions in Sherbrooke and insist that every tenent family shall be provided with at least sanitary surroundings and that every householder shall provide for his own property at least these requisites.The park committee should employ a compel it landscape engineer, not only ay out present parks and squat but to present a comprehensive plan to be put into execution in connection with the city's growth.The hea'thfulness and attractiveness of the greater Sherbrooke of the future may he ensured by proper planning and execution now or may he seriously marred by present day neglect and lack of fbresight.Cause and Effect.Is the greater Sherbrooke movement prejudicial to the interests of the working man?This was the contention of \u201cJ.E.L.\u201d in his letter published in the Record on Wednesday.The writer of this column has always considered the opposite to he decidedly the case.\u201cJ.K.L.:\u2019 points out that rents 'x have advanced 20 p.c., that wood has advanced from $4 to 86 per cord, etc., and that $12.will not go farther than $10.would three or four years ago.This is true.It is, however, not a condition peculiar- to Sherbrooke hut applies to the whole continent.The Greater Sherbrooke Movement cannot he blamed so far as the condition is general.There is no doubt that the establishment of new industries, the growth of civic pride and confidence in the city\u2019s future, has had effect of advancing land values and increased values, in the case of tenements, naturally tend towards high er rentals.This is, fiowever, not the only cause and not the chief cause of advance in the price of rent.The cost of building operations has gone up 30 p.c.during the past few years.If the Greater Sherbrooke movement is to he charged with rais ing the rent, it must he credited with raising the price of all labor employed in connection with building operations.From the mason and the carpenter to the laborer there has been an advance close to 30 p.c.Labor is the principle single item of expense in building.It is unfortunate that building operations have not quite kept pace with the growth in population, the increased cost of construction being doubtless' the chief cause.Then take the advance in the price of wood which is cited by \u201cJ.E.L.\u201d The increased cost of labor employed in cutting and hauling this wood will, we believe, be found to be the principal cause of advance in price.If the Greater Sherbrooke movement is responsible for one, may it not, also, he credited with the other.But it may be asked, where does the man who is neither a wood cutter, nor a mason, nor a carpenter come in?Where does the machinist and the working man who pays rent and buys wood figure?This may perhaps he determined better by looking at the reverse side of the case and considering his situation if, in this city, instead of a spirit of civic pride and optimism, discontent and an air of pessimism; prevailed; if instead of new\u2019 industries and expansion, the factories were not extending and the town was at a standstill.How long would it, be before there was a surplus of labor?During the slack periods of the year, what would be the situation of men laid off for lack of work?What would be the chance of maintaining an advance in wages rendered necessary by the increased cost of provisions and clothe?Would compensation in the way of lower rentals counterbalance the disadvantages of the other conditions?It seems to the writer of this column that the best condition for all the citizens is a condition of progress.New shops mean more opportunities for employment.Many opportunities for employment mean steady work and higher wages.Rentals may advance and a greater city movement may have some bearing upon this particular item of expense.In other ways, however, it will bring more than even compem sation.It is not responsible for advance in the general cost of living.That is a continental condition.By creating a condition of prosperity and progress, conducive to steady employment and higher wages, the greater Sherbrooke movement will shed its fruits into the laps of the artisan and the workingman as well as of the capitalist and the land owner.Who is there, no matter what his calling or occupation, who would not rather take his chances in thei town that is moving than in the town at a standstill?ONLOOKER.Umbrellas Showers\" bring out and wc have a good Ladies\u2019 and Gents' to \"April Umbrellas stock of choose from.Plain and gold or silver mounted handles, best quality covers, ranging from $2.7\u2019» to $10.50.Come in and sec them.R.J.Spearing Goldsmith and Diamond Merchant 33 Strathcona Square.The Annual Meeting of the Eastern Townships Liberal Conservative Association will be held at Sherbrooke, on the 25th of April, in the Art Hall, at 1.30 p.m.0.().PAUMTOR, Secretary-Treasurer.Public notice: is hereby giv- i- en that unaer the nrsL part oi cuap-ter V9 oi the Revised Statutes oi Canada, 1V>0(5, Known as \u201cTlie Companies Act,\" letters patent nave been issued under the Beal of the Secretary ui State ol Canada, bearing date the libth day of March, luia, incorporating hTancis George Bush, bookkeeper ;

English view of the Im perial idea it must also seem to all who met Mr.Borden in England a strange, almost ludicrous misjudg-ment of Mr.Borden\u2019s own intelligence and strength.MONEY ROAD TAX Old Statute Labour Tax Has Been Removed by Council QUESTION OF BORROWING MONEY FOR GOOD ROADS TO BE TAKEN UP AT PUBLIC MEETING.Bedford, April 12.\u2014(Special)\u2014 A regular monthly session of the Council of the parish of St.Ignace de Stanbridge was held at North Stan-bridge, the following Councillors being present, G.Ferland, E.Galipeau, Geo.H.Miller, Jos.Favreau and S.DoudeHn.The Mayor Nap.Fournier presided and the Secretary Treasurer, Mr.Geo.Sulley was also present.The By-Law doing away with Statute Labor on roads and substituting thereof a cash tax was re;1d and confirmed.A recent wind storm had blown off Mr.Irwin Unwin\u2019s barn roof and the adjustor.Mr.Russell reported a damage of fifty dollars.The Mayor aud Secretary Treasurer were authorized to sign a note for two-thirds of said amount hearing six .per cent interest to settle the claim as provided by the law governing parish mutual insurance companies.The company here has existed for 12 years and had only four losses in that time totaling $150.00, three losses by wind and only one by fire.The question of applying for a subsidy under the Good Roads Act of 1912 was discussed and some of the members of the Council wishing to hear from the rate payers, it was decided to ho\u2019d a public meeting on Monday morning, the 14th., inst, at ten o\u2019clock, to hear what the rate payers will have to say on the subject.It is understood that only a -3w of the many roads in the parish can be selected for the macadam and there will no doubt be a difference of opinion as to the choice which will have to be made.A big rally of the ratepayers is expected.j We are the Exclusive Head lo Foot Outfitters FOR MEN AND BOYS KODAKS and all KODAK SUPPLIES at FRASER\u2019S The DriifîKist and Bookseller PRIC ES: R usseîl-Knig-ht \u201c28\u201d Touring Model -

Public school and Minimum Salary grants in many cases, as compared with those which were received when the census of population was taken into account.Some municipalities will rece ve more and some

appeared on his face and disfigured him awfully.The boy could not sleep at night from the itching and pain, and I did not know what to do with him.It made him cross and fretful.If I have tried one, I have tried fifty remedies without result.At last I got samples of Cuticura Soap and Ointment, and after using them two days I noticed a change.1 then bought a full-sized cake of Cuticura Soap and one box of Cuticura Oint ment and I used to give the boy a hot bath daily using Cuticura Soap freely, and then applied the Cuticura Ointment.Ho had sulfered three months with the horrible disease before 1

careful observance of the re-| quirements regarding the engage-; ment of teachers not holding dip-: lomas or Grade II.Academy Permits.Many boards have fallen into i the habit of engaging unqualified teachers, first of all without exercis-! ing due effort to obtain qualified i ones, and then without obtaining the 1 recommendation of the Inspector in 1 any particular case.In all such cases, it is the duty of the hoards to consult with the Inspector beforehand.Frequently he may he able to inform : the board of the addresses of qualified teachers who are available, and ! if an unqualified teacher only is avail-| able, he is in a position to judge of her fitness.I am obliged to insist more strongly than ever upon attention to this point.Let me remind you, also, that the engagement of

recommendation of the Pro testant Committee, the Department will now require a statement to be signed in the form of application from School Boards for permission to engage a teacher without a diploma.This statement must set forth that adequate efforts have been made, through advertisements in the newspapers to secure qualified teachers pUNLop Traction tread NO OTHER TIRE THUS FEATURED

the need of consolidation in the case of the short term schools.It is in most cases the only means by which qualified teachers can be .obtained with certainty.Few qualified teachers are willing, even when the salary is fair, to take charge of a school in which there are only a few pupils.The consolidated school, with its larger classes, gives the competent teacher the opportunity of doing creditable work.Everywhere it is recognized as the one solution for the chief diiii-culties of the rural school on our continent.It has been well said that \u201cconsolidation permits a better grading and classification of the pupils; ensures more months of schooling; makes for a larger average attendance; adds the stimulating influence of larger classes; leads to better school buildings, better equipment, a larger supply of books, charts, maps, and apparatus; quickens public interest in the school; gives the opportunity for more practical instruction; affords a community center for the people; means very little extra expense; hirings the pupils to school in wet weather a distance of four or five miles when it would be- impossible for them to walk a mile; is better for the health of the pupils; gains the approval of the people whenever and wherever it is given a fair trial, and suits our rural conditions.\" More and more the consolidated school, with its ampler and more substantial educational facilities, is called for in the interest of progressive agricultural conditions.It is in such schools that the kind of instruction can be given which is directly helpful and useful in the preparation of the pupils for those principles which are the very basis of successful modern agriculture.In saying this I do not rely upon theoretical considerations alone.In other parts of the world and notably in Denmark, the mutual connection between advanced rural schools and advanced agriculture has been abundantly proved.I learn from these who took part in the educational campaign of last August, that at the meetings the general principle of consolidation was heartily approved.There is still lacking, however, the deternvnation to put it in operation, and give it a fair trial.There are many municipalities where it is needed, and where faithful effort would make it successful.Once more, therefore, I commend it to your thoughtful consideration.This Department is always ready to give information on the subject, and ] the Inspectors are well qualified to advise as to the best means in any municipality.TEACHERS SALARIES I regret to say that while there has been a distinct improvement here and there in the salaries of the teachers, as a result of the increased Government grants, the general average has not increased as it should have done.The extra grants are not intended to relieve the boards from their responsibility.They are intended to be supplemented by increased local taxation, to the end that such salaries may be paid as will ensure a supply of qualified teachers.With a general increase in the cost and standard of living, and in view of the many opportunities now open for the educated young women of to-day (to say nothing of the attractive salaries offered to our qualified teachers by the western Canadian provinces), it is plain that no salary should now be less than $30 a month for the first year of teaching, with increases for each year of experience.To expect to otitain good teachers for less is to ignore the present economic conditions.Further, it is very probable that the grants for minimum salary will be soon made on the basis of the payment of at least 8125 a year to each teacher instead of $100; $150 instead of 8125, and -8175 instead of \u20228150, it is advisable that no board, wishing to participate in these grants should pay next year any salary less than $175.GOVERNMENT\u2019S POLICY \u2014 I ! MORE THAN HALF .THE WORLD'S SUPPLY.(From the Japan Times) ! The production of Formosan cam- j j phor (government monopoly) for the (current fiscal year (ending March 31) is given at 3,500,000 catties, excluding the production of camphor oil, which is returned at 5,000,000 catties Adding to this 1,500,000 catties representing the production in Shikoku and Kyushu, the total rises to 5,-000,000 catties.Thus Japan supplies 55 per cent, of the world\u2019s consump-sion which is given at 9,000,000 cat-ties.Though the Japanese camphor controls the market at present, if the Government fails to keep in view the situation of the market in framing its monopoly programme, the result will be the sure revival of the artificial camphor industry and the con-sequent severe damage to the industry in Japan as was experienced a few years ago.In the circumstances, it is reported, the Government will, in framing its camphor policy maintain the production of the coming fiscal year at about the same as the present year, while maintaining the current price, while maintain ng the current price, which is 150 shillings a hundred catties for B class coarse camphor and 147 shillings a hundred catties for new B class coarse camphor, the increase is made in case of necessity, being limited to 160 shillings for the above-mentioned article.The camphor industry in China is still in its infancy, the output at present failing of \u2019one million catties.There exist many camphor forests in a promising condition in the interior of Fukien province, and if these he properly developed it is not difficult to increase the production.But as China lacks means for forest preservation, the new resources, if utilized, would prove only a temporary benefit and soon dwindle away as the result of reckless disafforestation.Moreover as these forests are located in remote regions, with very inconvenient communication, and their development involves much expenditure and danger, they are, after all, no formidable rival to the Japanese industry.But what is feared to become a formidable rival to the Japanese camphor interests is the gradual development of the camphor industry in Borneo and Sumatra, where camphor afforestation is being done on an extensive scale by Europeans.But it will bo over twenty years before the camphor trees in these places will be ready for the establishment of the camphor manufacture.If the Government authorities take care to adopt their measures of camphor administration to the situation, there need be no fears as to the future of the camphor industry, because, besides the many magnificent camphor forests found in the undeveloped and remote interior of -Formosa, which offer very promising prospects for the domestic industry, along with the progress of the subjugation of the aboriginal districts, the decrease of the insular production from deforestation can he sufficiently supplied by the use of camphor leaves for the coming two or three decades, by which time the young trees will attain full growth.Thus the camphor production in Formosa will remain exhaustless and afford the country the monopoly of the world's market.Venezuela and Cuba.Black is not at all popular, being found only in the cases of Germany

observed again tins year, and I shall be pleased if secretary-treasurers will inform me by post card when this is done.FLY THE FLAG.The Protestant Committee, at a recent meeting, passed a resolution requiring that the flag be flown upon every Protestant school on every school day in the year.This, too, is a patriotic duty, to which I have no doubt you will readily respond.PHYSICAL EXERCISES.Last year a manual of physical exercises was sent to every school through the secretary-treasurers.Each book is the property of the individual school to which it is scut.The physical exercises arc designed for the purpose of developing the health and bearing of the pupils.Experience everywhere shows that such exercises tend to aid the pupils in their studies, rather than to interfere with them.Under the terms of the Stratlioona Trust, prizes are of fered to the schools making the most progress, or obtaining the best re suits, in these exercises.TEMPERANCE AND HEALTH.This subject is a compulsory one, but I find from the reports of the Inspectors that it is sometimes neglected, and often imperfectly taught.RED HUNTING VEGETABLE WONDERS.Hunting wild animals may be all right so far as it goes, but how much more romance and how much more value to the world there is in hunting for wild vegetables and plants which can be made use of for the benefit of humanity.F.N.Mieyer, the Government agricultural explorer, has started on another trip to China and Siberia in search of new fruit novelties which can be introduced into this country.He will be gone three years and during that time will travel with his own caravan in the wildest parts of eastern Asia.Whenever he hears of a remarkable fruit he will follow it up, and get seeds or cuttings from the tree.These will be sent to Washington for propagation and study.Owing to the great distance it is very difficult to make scions or cuttings preserve their vitality so they can be m:ule grow.One of the objects of this long journey is to procure cuttings of the famous Feit Ching peach of China.The peach grows so that it weighs as much as three pounds.On a former trip Mr.Meyer got cuttings from it, but they refused to live when grafted on American stock.Stones from the peaches have been planted but there is little hope from them for peach seedlings seldom come true to variety or are of much merit\u2014Pathfinder.IS THE MOST POPULAR COLOR OF THE NATIONS.Which is the most popular of col-colors ?This to some extent is a difficult question to decide.However, assuming national'' flags as a standard, it would appear that red is the most popular of colors, for it is found in the standards of 19 countries out of 25.Practically every one of the European states, together with Mexico, Venezuela.Chili and Cuba, boast the color red in their national flags.Blue is found in the imblems of the United States, Russia, France, Great Britain, Holland, Ecuador, Sweden, Chile.Portugal, WILD BEASTS WITH MUSICAL TASTES.The big hulking elephant would scarcely be suspected of refined musical taste, but the pachyderm is a most exacting critic.Circus men have learned that elephants will not walk into the arena peaceably unless a stately march is played for them, and they will not he on their good behavior if music of a frivolous character is played during their act.Circus bandmasters become well acquainted with the musical idio-syncracies of inhabitants of the menagerie tent.It is their experience that the most nasty tempered brute always excepting the ghoulish hyena, can be calmed by soothing music.Tigers are not very susceptible; but they will sit quietly when a pleasing melody is played softly.Leopards are the only felines that display musical interest.They caper with delight to a lively tune and snarl to slow mus c.Lions are great music lovers.They will sit motionless for hours and listen with every evidence of pleasure to smooth-flowing melody.But rapid or broken rhythms will make them pace their cage impatiently, while a discord will evoke growls of angry protest.It is claimed that all venomous reptiles are so affected by the notes of a reed or pipe instrument that they can be handled with impunity while in this charmed state.I would recommend that in all cases where there is a library in the school the board should purchase the excellent set of books known as the.Citilick Hygiene Scries (Ginn & Co., Boston).These would not he used as class text books, and would therefore not he purchased by the pupils, but would furnish interesting and instructive lessons to lie given by the

Miss., April 28 and L\u20199.Canadian labor unions will make an effort to have the Government investigate the high cost of living.An army 15,000 children, two-thirds of them girls, is employed in the great textile industry in Pennsylvania.The union of all railroad employees in one strong organization is predicted by W.S.Carter, President of the Brotherhood of Locomotive En-gincmen.After fourteen years of continuous work the laboring people of Colorado have at last secured the enactment of an eight hour day for mines and smelters and kindred work.More than 50,01(0 miners in South Wales will go out on strike as a protest against the employment in the mines of non-union workmen.An attempt to bring about an agreement with the employers has failed.The date of the decision of the ar-I hltrators

pagans, who had come cut of their fastnesses and danced and yelled with delight, brandishing their clubs.Such a thing was not conceivable a few years ago.The number of horsemen taking part in the game was reckoned at from 15,000 to 30,000 with footmen innumerable.Each Emir, in turn, with his horsemen, galloped right up to the Governor in a whirlwind of dust, desert fashion, and did obeisance.Afterwards Sir F.Lugard shook hands with the principal chiefs and gave a short address; and on subsequent days he received each chief separately in audience.There were forty-eight of these separate interviews, and in each case the Governor inquired after the prosperity of the ch ef\u2019s district and asked if'he had any matter to bring before him.The almost universal report was of peace and prosper ty.In all, sixty-three Emirs and chiefs, representing sixty-eight tribes, were present.The whole gathering\u2014 at which chiefs formerly in bitter hostility met in

Science Monitor) Recently in St.John, N.B., a large meeting of representative citizens took up the matter of throwing open the country in a larger way to the sightseer, the investor and the settler.The temper of the gathering was such as to leave litele doubt regarding the support that w,iU come to the Flemming government in any scheme of highway construction upon which it may elect to enter.Townspeople and country people alike are demanding road construction on a large scale.It has become clear to them, as to the residents of the maritime provinces in general, that the most effective method of opening the areas of fertile land, now idle, to cultivation and development is to build roads through those areas that will enable the outside world to see and pass upon the territory.At the present time the province is expending about 8100,000 annually upon its highways; the municipalities an additional $00,000.This amount goes no further than to maintain those highways already in existence, but they are wholly inadequate.The province needs many miles of new trunk and branch lines.It could well afford to bond itself for these.The experience on this side of the line, and it is practically the same in Quebec and Ontario, and other parts of the Dominion, is that good roads at once enhance the value of land and raise the tax valuation correspondingly.New Brunswick and Nova Scotia are not at this time accessible to the automobile in any large sense.They should be.When they become so, the wisdom of highway investment will at once make itself apparent.- A TRUE HERO.Many stories have been told of the heroism of the Albanians, whose country is at the present moment being devastated by the war in the Balkans.An incident showing how inborn is the courage of that daring people has just been related by a British war correspondent, Captain Trapmann.He was cycling along an Albanian road one day, when he came across a bright little girl of about six and a boy of five.The girl was asking for bread.He got off and spoke to her, and she imn«ediately understood he was a foreigner, and it appeared to her that he could not he anything but a Tnrk.At once both children looked terrified, and then to his surprise and admiration the little fellow caught him by the legs and shouted to his sister, \u201cRun !\u201d DniDkenness Can Be Cured ALCURA Will Be

Importation of English Birds A LARGE CONSIGNMENT WAS SENT OUT TO VANCOUVER SENTIMENT PLAYED A PART.A great deal of interest is being shown in the importation of English gold-finches, robins, skylarks, robins, and tits to Vancouver and hope is freely expressed that these welcome little singing immigrants may increase and multiply in the Dominion.British newspapers spoke a good deal of quiet fun at the anxious folk in the United States, who believe the English sparrow to be a nuisance, the starling a menace, and fear terrible things from the latest immigrants.DREAD MULTIPLICATION OP THESE BIRDS.It is presumed that these birds\u2014 supposing that they succeed in establishing themselves, which introduced birds seldom do\u2014will soon be discontented with the narrow bounds of the islands and will spread like a devastating flood over the United States, carrying ruin to the American farmers and their feathered friends.This is what the sparrow is supposed to have done, and what the starling, also established in America of late years, is expected to do.Yet, with extraordinary inconsistency, attempts are being made to naturalize the wood- pigeon in the States.It may safely be said that this bird does more harm in Great Britain than all other mischievous birds put together, and less good to make up for it.The fact is that the history of birds introduced artifical-ly into a country has never been fairly examined; they have been found guilty without fair trial.The good the sparrows do In destroying insect life, would, in all probability greatly outweight the objections to them in Canada at least.NO HARM DONE ELSEWHERE.There is really no case on record in which au introduced bird has exterminated a native one.A good instance of what has happened may be found in tbe histories of the few foreign birds which have obtained a footing in the British islands.These are the pheasant, which has been there since Roman times; the tame or mute swan, which is said to Lave been introduced by Richard Coeur-de-Lion, and is now truly wild :n some localities in Britain; the Canadian goose, an introduction of about a century back, which has also locally ^hanged its status from an oramen-tal park bird to à really wild one; the French red-legged partridge, a rather older alien, which is quite a common game-bird; and last and latest of all.the little owl.None of these birds has 'exterminated anything; all the native game-birds exist in spite of the pheasant; the wild whooper swan still visits Britain in winter\u2014it never was a common breeding bird; the wild grey goose still has a few breeding stations, but it was already rare as a breeder when its Canadian rival was introduced; Vigorous Health Restored To Run-Down Woman the \u201cFrenchman\" does not extermin- j ate the native grey partridge, but j frequents different localities by pre- ! ference, aml is not a match for the English bird in a fight; and as to the little owl, although it undoubtedly preys on our small birds, it attacks the same species on the Continent, and has not exterminated them here.NATIVE SPECIES DECREASE NATURALLY.Going further afield, we find that tbe native birds in some countries have undoubtedly become scarcer, while introduced ones have increased; but such birds are aften found to be dependent on their native vegetation for their subsistence, and when forests are felled they must recede in any case.Foreign birds, like the sparrow and the Indian house-mynah (the starling of the East), have been introduced into many countries, because some birds were badly wanted to eat the insects with which the native birds, under changed conditions, were unable to cope; even in the United States the sparrow was credited with exterminating csiter-pillars in town parks, a good deed which is sometimes now forgotten.The Vancouver consignment was admittedly ordered from motives of sentiment; but its constituents are none of them so truculent as the sparrow, and are not likely to do anything very terrible.They will be great acquisitions to the music of the grouse if they increase as we cannot but hope will be the case.HEWS HMDS IRON «IS Seemed to Have Lost All Ambition, Was Pale and Anaemic.Mends Holes in POTS, PANS, 'g KETTLES &C MfmU Guni(*.Tin.Iron, Cupper, Bra**.Aluminum, elf.in two minât** with, nut any tools.Saves Time and Money* Any woman cun mend the Imleft «\" her kitchen utrnails.25c per packnue noatoaid, cnoutfh to tlltnd 60 liolrâ.AGENTS WANTEdL- tlurm.NAGLE Of Co.Montreal, Can, Successful in all the numerous ailments caused by defective or irregular action, of tho organa of digestion and climi-nation\u2014certain to prevent Buffering and to improve tho general health- BEEGHAMS PILLS Bold everywhere, In boxca, 25 ctiuj.Made Wonderful Recovery When Dr.Hamilton\u2019s Pills Were Used.*T was never actually sick,\" writes Mrs.Norman Laincrre, wife of a well-known resident of Lalieniene, \"yet I never could kuL strong like other wTo-men.I ate well enough, but somehow, rich and red blood I could never make.When I married I took ;i great pride in my housekeeping, but it kept mo tired all tho time.Mrs.Bechance, my neighbor, looked well\u2014she told me her health had been made up by Dr.Hamilton's Pills.I only thought ol pills as a physic, hut now I know that Dr.Hamilton's Pills are more, for they quickened my stomach, liver and bowels\u2014made me stouter and stronger, gave me such color in my cheeks as I never had before.I sincerely holievo Dr.Hamilton's Pills should be used by every woman\u2014that's why .1 write this letter.''

Cleopatra\u2019s Needle, from Egypt to London, where it now stands on the Victoria Embankment.This famous undertaking, which took place in 1878, has-just been recalled by the death of Mr.William Watkins, the Mark Lane tug-owner, London.Owing to the size and form of the \"Needle,\u201d a cigar shaped craft was specially built for its accommodation, but while it waa being towed through the Bay of Biscay, the steamer in charge had the misfortune to lose it during a terrible storm.However, the strange \u2019raft was ultimately saved and taken to F-errol.To this part the Watkins firm dispatched a three funnel tug which brought Cleopatra\u2019s Needle to London without further mishap.It now stands on the Embankment, as a begrimed reminder to Londoners of the responsibilities of England to the wheat-growing land of the Phar-oahs.- HARD WATER FOR DRINKING.(Newark Evening News) Hard water for drinking and soft water for washing and cooking is the recomir.îndation of Dr.H.Roemer, of Berlin, after an investigation of the effects of the hardness of water.Dentition especially is affected, and examination of several thousand school children has shown a percentage of sound teeth varying from 1.3 to 20.'.!, the variation for the different localities agreeing with the degree of hardness of the drinking water.Both the lime and magnesia seem to have influence, the latter hardening the enamel.The lime and magnesia also act favorably cn the blood, and the growth of children is stimulated and strengthened by them.In hard water regions a notably large number of men are fit for Military service.Whether the advantages of hard water continue throughout life we are not told, but there is a quite common understanding that the body in old age tends to the overaccumulation of lime.-1-\u2014 THE TORRE RIVADAVIA.Application has been made to the municipality of Buenos Ayres for a sixty-year concession to erect on public property the \u201cTorre Rivadavia,\u2019\u2019 similar to the Eiffel Tower in Paris.It is to be 1067 feet high, topped by a 106-foot statue bearing a light of 1,000,000 candle power, making the total height 1173 feet (Eiffel, 984 feet).It is to be equipped with a wireless station, a meteorological observatory and an immense electrical clock.Nest June there will be com-leted at Tuckerton, N.J., a wireless tower 820 feet high, 200 feet higher than any metal tower now in existence, the Eiffel tower excepted.It is stated that if the Tuckerton station and a station in Berlin prove successful, other stations will bo built in German West Africa and on the Pacific coast in California.The proposal is to establish direct communication with continental Europe, and the station, it is explained, is to be one of a series with which a German company proposes to encircle the globe.As German capitaf Is behind the enterprise, so will the whole structure of the tower be completed by German labor, and every piece of steel used in the construction is being imported from Germany.-+-.COAIi FOR FIVE THOUSAND YEARS.(From the Philadelphia Press) New interest is added to the dispute concerning control of coal fields in Alaska by tho testimony given in Chicago recently that there were in than 1,500,000,000,(100 tons of the than 1,500,000,000,two tons ol the precious fuel buried under an area of five hundred square miles.What is more interesting still, and comforting ns well, is the expert testimony that there is coal enough in the United States proper to last for 5,000 years to come.This testimony was given in a suit in which fraud against the Government in the Alaska coal fields was charged.The comforting witness was William Griffith, mining engineer and geologist employed by the Government Bureau of Mines.His figures are stupendous.Although the average yearly consumption of coal has been -100,000,000 tons, there are.be declares, still underground In the United States (taking no account of the enormous reserve supply in Alaska) not less than 2,MO,000,000,000 tons.What is more, we have hardly scratched the visible supply since we have been mining coal.-4- HF.nniNn thf, yurasTtoN.Tlie

deer-park.The story is that Buddha, ! struck by the loveliness of the ga-i zelles, took the form of one and became king of the herd.A certain rajah, hunting one day with a cheetah, saw this splendid creature and or-| dered the cheetah to he loosed upon 1 him.Just as the leather hood was about to fall from the cheetah\u2019s eyes, \u2022the mind of the rajah became enlightened, and postrating himself on the dust, he cried out: \u201cOh, sublime I master, truly thou art a man\u2014 and i what a man!\u2014in the shape of a beast ' whereas I.that wickedly sought to ! kill thee, I am a beast\u2014and oh, how stupid a beast! hidden under the ] shape of a man.\" Sarnath 1\u2019 a great place of | pilgrimage, : : the remains of the monastery and other buildings which were erected in the deer-park have \u2022\tnow for some years been in the j course of excavation.Among other I details I specially noticed a square j chamber surrounded by.short columns connected by rows of wide rails of stone, lozenge-shaped in section, and, on some such cross-bars.cir- Split 40 Cords At Ago of 85 Thankful to the Medicine that gave him Ability for the Task with pat- cular medallions carved terns.Perhaps the most remarkable j among the finds at Sarnath is a large j quadripartite lion capital and the j column it surmounted.These are of : polished granite, and the column, | which was found in several pieces, I must have been forty-five feet high.\u2019 In the tenth century of our era, ' Buddhism was crushed out by the Î Brahmins\u2014the votaries of the very i faith from which Buddha had seced-ed\u2014and at Sarnath, the great monastery was destroyed by fanatic fury, and its surprised monks were burned in a gigantic holocaust.Not far away from these ruins, along a great crescent of the bank of .the Granges, Benares, the mysterious, spreads out to-day the marvels of its temples, its terraced embankments, its vast flights of stone steps, and ( its palaces, one beyond another, till, in the far distance, their forms seem to dissolve in dusty air of palpitat- j ing gold.Hardly a ruling house of India but has helped in their building.For four miles, from Asi Ghat ! at one end, to the old Raj Ghat j at the ether by the Dufferin bridge, the west side of the river presents this great irregular facade of the great city of the Hindu religion, which claims to-day more than two hundred million adherents.The mighty river has played strange freaks in flood-time, and, as my boat went slowly past the towering cliff of buildings, here and there I saw huge masses of masonry sloping at all angles, and broken from the foundations as if by earthquake; carved friezes fallen into the water, old inundated bastions thrusting decrepit Market Column You need not spend 25 cents to buy a bottle of Dr.Stanley's i Powerinl j White Liniment: if yon are positively sure not to ever suffer with rheumatism, sore throat.diphtheria, hoarseness, bronchitis.toothache earache, bruises, scalds, headaches, burns.crajnPK.coHes, asthma, erysipelas, pains in the back or side, bites of anima stings, etc,, but if this case nse \"DR- ST stomach insect not the BLEY'S POWERFUL WHITE LINIMENT.This vegetable compound is an excellent remedy for internal and external use.Price.20 cents per bottle.Frasier, Thornton & Go.LIMITED.COOK8HIRJK, QCE.Yhe family remedy for Cough» and Cold» .¦Ebilab costs *0 little and does so much I\u2019 .OPEN EVENINGS UNTIL 9 O\u2019CLOCK Own Your Own Home\u2014 BE INDEPENDENT We are loaning money from Coast to Coast in Canada to our contract hcMtrg to BUY OR BUILD HOMES PAY OFF MORTGAGES IMPRQVE REAL ESTATE at 5 ji.e.Per Annum, Investigate the C.H.I.C.contract Man to-day.It will Pay you\u2014It means becoming your own landlord.THE Canadian Home Investment Co, (LIMITED) Head Office.Pacific Building, Vancouver, B.C.Sherbrooke Office, 9 Genest Building.Tïïe Merchants Bank Established 1864 of Cctllcldâ Office, Montreal President.SIR H.MONTAGU ALLAN, C.V.O.Vice-President .K.W.BLACKWELL General Manager .E.F.HEBDEN Paid up Capital.$6,747,680 Reserve Fund and Undivided Profits .6,559,478 192 Branches and Agencies In Cnriada, extending from the Atlantic to the Pacific, A General Banking Business Transacted.Hpenal Attention Given to Collection*.Ravings Rank Department fit all Uranches.II.IRWIN, .M.iiifti'pr,\tHlicrlirookc Brancli, DAIRY PRODUCE DISCUSS THE U.S.TARcFF.Montreal, April 12.\u2014The principal topic in trade this week has been the probable effect of the revision of the American tariff upon the butter trade of Canada.The first impression which strikes is that all Canadian factories along the border will be at a great disadvantage owing to the free admission of milk and cream into the United States which would give American factorymen on the other side of the Line an advantage of I|c per pound over Canadian makers; that is in the event of its becoming law, of which there is little doubt.Then again the reduction from (ic to 3c per pound would place the United States in a more favorable position as an importer of butter as she would be able to bring in Australia butter at 3c per pound duty, whereas our duty on Australian butter is 4c per pound.As regards New Zealand butter, the United States is on the same plane as Canada, the tariff being 3c per pound in both countries.It is thought by some in the trade here that the change in the proposed tariff will have the effect of making butter cheaper in the United States than in Canada.It would certainly appear so, as the former country, will have the advantage of the latter, by being in a heads above the tide, while the very position to import from Australia, A Very Interesting Case Few men of eig-hty-five years of age can boast of much else but poor health and failing strength.And such was the condition of Mr.Benj.Marsh, who is known to every soul in the neighborhood of his home at Lime Lake.Ont.\"Quite unsolicited,\" writes Mr.Marsh, T wish tc say how I have been bothered for years with stomach trouble.I tried everything I could think of without benefit.I was terribly afflicted with swelling and gas, and had much distress between meals.I tried everything I could think, of.but without benefit.Then I was recommended Nerviline.My, but Nerviline did me a power of good\u2014made a new man of me.so that within the last three weeks I have been able to split about forty cords of stove wood.I will always stick to Nerviline and will always recommend it, and would like to meet anyone and convince them if in doubt as to what Nerviline has done for me.\" For sour stomach, nausea, belching of gas.cramps and sadden sickness at night, nothing is more helpful in the home, nothing saves so much pain and distress as Nerviline.Large family size bottles, 50c,;

It is just above these steps that is situated the well, or rather tank, of which the water is said to be the perspiration of Vishnu, and into which the wife of Siva once dropped an ear-ring.This is quite other than the well of knowledge, which Siva is said to inhabit, though the stench about each of them is not dissimilar.The throngs upon the ghats include every caste, and the beneficent wave washes alike Brahmin and pariah, even as it bathes at the same time the living and the dead.Not far from the tumultuous shrilling of all those voices lie, propped with their feet in the water, several corpses, each rolled in bright-colored cloth, and tightly bound between bamboo rods, waiting to be carried to the piles of logs above, being made ready for the burning.All day long the smoke of the pyres ascends, and one night, as I passed the burning ghat, I saw the flames, more lurid in the darkness, lighting up the figures of the mourners, sitting in rows upon the upper steps.The glare caught some of the huge umbrellas of dried grass, used in the day for shade, that hung like pale bucklers along the walls, and flickered upon the pale robes of pilgrims at the foot of the steps putting little lamps to float on the water.But there is burning at Benares a flame brighter than the river-lamps or fires of cremation\u2014the dual flame of mental and physical development at the Central Hindu College, which was founded largely through the efforts of Mrs.Annie Besant.Watching a team of young men playing football in the college ground, with a white emblem of Siva by the goal.I thought the greatest promise of the future of India lay in that building g yen by the Maharajah of Benares in 1>90 \u2014\u201cFor the education of Hindu youth in their ancestral faith and true loyalty and patriotism.\u2019\u2019 500,000 TREES SET OUT IN SCOTLAND one of the largest exporting countries, at 1c per pound less duty.The receipts of Canadian butter in this market during the past two weeks has been considerably less than for the same period last year, but the fact of held stocks being larger than at this time last year, has prevented prices from attaining the altitude of those of a year ago when new milk Eastern Townships creamery and New Zealand butter sold at 34c to 35c.Today the same class of goods are bringing 31c to 32c wholesale and held goods at 28 ^c to 30c.THE EFFECT OF THE TARIFF.Montreal, April 12.\u2014 Should the American tariff come into force as proposed, it will have the effect of lowering the price on the other side of the border as a portion of the cheese that in former years have been shipped from here to England will be exported to the United States.The admission of milk free of duty will be felt adversely by Canadian Cheese-makers, as factories on the other side of the Line will have an advan-take of at least 1c per pound in competition with our own makers.Should the States take any large quantities of Cabadian cheese our exports to England will be considerably curtailed, when another factor would be brought into play; and it is quite, possible that English as well as American buyers may be competing for our cheese, after the American tariff comes into force.Eventually, however, values will undergo a levelling process both here and in the States.Stocks of cheese in this market are gradually moving out 2,816 boxes ¦ being shipped last week, 757 boxes going to Liverpool and 2,059 boxes to London.Of these 2,316 boxes were local and 500 boxes through shipment from the West.The receipts of cheese during the past two weeks were much smaller than during the corresponding period last year, and should a cold and late spring be experienced, which is said to be not improbable, owing to the mild winter, and the belief that nature is a great average maker, the receipts for a, time will be below an average.Business has ruled very quiet during the past week, several small lots changing hands at 12|c to 13c for fine to finest Western and what few lots of fresh fodders arrive, are quoted at 11Jc to 12c.REPORT ISSUED BY THE GOVERNMENT ON WORK IS VERY ENCOURAGING.Inverary, Scouaul\u2014 \u2014 The report issued by the government of the afforestation scheme which has been started as Inverliever, Argyllshire, at an altitude of 800 to 900 feet above sea level, has been received with considerable interest.The undertaking presented many dif- must be sold at very low prices, ficulties, for the site comprised swam condition of the local hay market mentioned a week ago is still noticeable.There has been no particular change to note, however, in the sit nation.Prices continue firm but .\u2022-changed under a good local demand.American buyers have taken n few car loads.Cables from England do not show any improvement in the situation over there.Liverpool cables report the market dull and easier at 72s 6d to 73s 9d.We quote prices purely nominal as follows : Liverpool 72s Od to 73s 9d; London 80s to 82s 6d; Bristol 756 to 80s; Manchester, 80s; Glasgow 85s to 90s as to grade.We quote prices more or less nominal as follows : No.1 quality, $12.50 to $13.00; No.2 extra, $11.50 to $12.00; No.2 ordinary, $10.00; No.3 hay, $9.00 to $9.50; Clover, as to grade, $9.00 to $9.50.COUNTRY PRODUCE PRICE OF EGGS DECLINE.Montreal, April 12.\u2014The liberal supplies of new laid eggs coming into the market, has caused an easier feeling here and prices show a further decline of one cent, per dozen.Although the demand is good supplies coming forward are in excess of the consumption, and some of the packers have begun to put away for storage purposes.Sales are made this week in a wholesale way at 21c per dozen.Dealers are paying 18c this week at country points, advices from the principal egg markets of the United States, state that the .situation over there is anything but satisfactory, owing to the large production and the heavy receipts in all centers, which consist of stock not suitable for storage purposes and py ground, which necessitated the dig- : ging of nearly 2270 chains of drains.Future roads have been provided for, the route which they will follow having been left unplanted.During the 1 season nearly 509,000 young trees were planted over an area of 187 acres.The kinds planted comprised spruce, 321,000 ; sitka spruce, 30,000 ; larch, 69,000 ; Hcots pine, 71,500 silver fir, 9,000, and 8,500.The larch and Scots pine proved very attractive to black game, and, though efforts were made to entice the birds away by feeding them with grain on the moor some distance away from the plantation, they invariably returned to the young trees.Difficulty was also experienced in ob- : taining manual labor, and horses were almost impossible to get.In \u2019 the ensuing season this shortage of labor will be overcome, It Is hoped, especially as steps are being taken I to improve the accommodation of the i nursery staff, A large area of seed beds have been i \u2022own with birch, larch, sitka spruce, !
