O, FOSTER, Editor and  Manager.\nSATURDAY, JULY 27\nQUESTION' OF THE COST OF\nLIVING\nIn view of the general complaint ns\nto the Increase in the cost of living\nanything bearing on the subject must\nbe of more or less general Interest.\nThe problem is not confined to any\none country but Is general throughout\nthe civilized world. One of the causes\nfor the Increase In cost of living is the\nmovement of the people of the world\nto the cities, thus reducing the relative number of producers.\nEven in Canada this movement is\nmost marked, In only two provinces\nof the whole Dominion, Alberta nnd\nSaskatchewan, according to Inst yenrs\ncensus, has the increase in rural population since 1901 been grenter than\nthat of the urban communities In the\nsame time. Tn the ten years ended\n3911 the population of the cities of\nCanada increased 62 per cent, while the\nIncrease of the rural population was\nonly 17 per cent.\nThat this movement toward the cities\nIs worldwide In Its character is shown\nby a bulletin of economic and social\nIntelligence issued by the Internalional\nInstitute of Agriculture and distributed by tbe Canadian Department of\nAgriculture. This shows that even In\nFrance, which up to tho last census\nhad been the one country in which the\ngrowth of the country districts was\nmore rapid than that of tho cities, a\nchange has taken place.\nAccording to the bulletin in question\nfrom 190C to 1911 the total increase in\nthe general population of France was\nonly 349,242, while the population of\nthe towns of more than 30,000 souls increased by 476,442 persons, In other\nwords the town population ot France\nIncreased while the rural population\ndecreased.\nOne satisfactory feature of the bulletin, however, is the fnct that it shows\nthat the movement to the cities in the\nBritish Isles has been to a large extent\narrested within the pest ten years.\nDuring tho decade hetween 1891 and\n1901 the Increase in the rural population of England and \"Wales was only\n2,9 per cent, while the urban population during the same period rose by\n15.2 per cent. During the ten years\nbetween 1901 and 1911, to quote the\nbulletin:\nThere seems   to  be   a  complete\nvolt   faces   of   tendency   although\nmodifications   must   be   (reckoned\nwith.   As compared with the previous decade the rate of increase\nIn    the    rural districts has risen\nfrom 2.9 to 10.2 per cent; while In\nthe urban districts it has declined\nfrom  15.2 to 11.1 per cent.   Tho\nmean rate of increase for England\nand Wales is 10.9 per cent, to which\nit will be seen, that the rate of increase In   the rural approaches.\nThe  mistaken   tendency  of the age\nto  congregate   tn   urban   communities\nIs generally recognized and means of\ncounteracting It have formed the subject  of much   thought,  much  discussion and, In some cases, some action.\nIt Is hard, however, to see how much\ncan  be accomplished  as   long as.human nature Is what it is.   The gaiety,\nthe   apparent   opportunities   of   rapid\nand easy wealth and the freedom from\nthe drugery, that has to such a great\nSigns of Farm for Sale\nFARM\nLAND!\nAre often met with but it is seldom that one can find the equal\nof the following property at anything like the low price we are asking for this one,\n42 acres on railway, afll cleared\nexcept a small patch for fuel, etc;\n12 acres In timothy, 6 In pototoes,\n600 winter apple trees, horse, cow,\nand number of chickens.

The\npeople of the civilized world are* engaged In a race for pleasure and for\nmoney. The direct result Is this move-,\nment from tbe country to the cities\nwith its attendant reduction in the\nnumber of producers and its consequent increase in the cost of living. To\nmeet the high cost of living the workers must in self protection dema'nd\nand receive\" increases in wages and\nsalaries in proportion. Thus a new\nscale of living is set all around. The\npresent high cost of living will not be\nreduced until the movement of population from the country to the cities is\nstopped and when it is reduced It can\nho safely predicted that there will at\nthe same time be a tendency toward\nat least, a corresponding reduction In\nwages   and   salaries.\nNEW ERA ON THE INTERCOLONIAL\nThat Hon. Frank Cochrane Is in\nearnest in his determination to put the\nIntercolonial railway on a paying basis and to do away with the practllce\nthrough which the politicians of Nova\nScotia and New Brunswick nursed\ntheir respective ridings at the expense\nof tho Dominion as a whole, Is shown\nhy a couple of Incidents reported by a\ncorrespondent of British News of Canada.\nOno Maritime member in the session\njust ended, it Is told, was abJe to secure a vote of $5,800 for a new station\nat a point in his constituency. After\nthe session Mr. Cochrane made an inspection of the Intercolonial In the\ncourse of which he visited the town\nwhero this new station was to have\nbeen built, After Investigation Mr.\nCochrane expressed himself as follows:\nFive thousand eight hundred dollars for a new station.   Why this\nstation cannot earn $5,000 fn three\nyears,  passenger,  freight and  all.\nWe won't throw away money like\nthat.    Spend $500 on pnlnt and repairs.    Not a cent more.\nThe   decision   was   characteristic of\nMr.   Cochrane.    The   station  has   not\nbeen built nor will It bo built,\nAt another point the people were\ncongratulating themselves on having\nsecured a vote of ?2.400 for a larger\nfreight shed. Mr. Cochrane had a look\nground the freight shed and 'demanded\nto know whether demurrage was being collected On all the freight he\nfound housed there. As a matter of\nfact the people of that town were\nusing the Intercolonial freight shed ns\na generart warehouse. Apparently It\nwould not nccommodate all the goods\nthey wished to store and^fc\/had asked and secured a vote for further accommodation. The imposition of demurrage removed all necessity for a\nlarger warehouse and tbe estimate\nfor the enlargement has been cancelled.\nThese, it is said, are but sample Incidents of what happened at different\npoints from one end of the line to thc\nother. If Mr. Cochrane lives up to\nthe start he has made In the adminls\ntration of the Intercolonial, and The\nDally News believes he will, his ad\nvent to the position of Minister of\nRailways and Canals will prove one of\nthe best things that has ever happened In Canada.\nI gave you no decided^answer tlie fhst\ntime you proposed?\"\nBennam\u2014\"I remember that yuu depended sentence.\"\u2014Judce.\nSchoolmaster-\"Now, you understand\nthat heat expands matter ami cold contracts it.

E. S. Logic In\nmoving a vote of thanks to the speaker\nfor his uddress. It was the function\nof newspapers, he claimed, to give expression to public opinion, while It was\nfor the church to generate and form\npublic opinion so that the profession\nhe represented and that, of the newspaperman went hand In band.

McGrath of Montreal lias a remarkable story to tell about \"Fruit-\na-tives'*. It is a story of vital interest to all sufferers from Rheumatism. It tells\nthe bare facts of one of the most extraordinary cases in medical history. His own\nphysician could give Mr. McGrath no relief. Then he went to one of the leading\nMontreal hospitals where the doctors told him that his case was incurable and that\nnothing could be done for him. As a last resort, he tried \"Fruit-a-tives\"\u2014and\nthese miracle-workers did what all thc doctors in Montreal could not do\u2014they\ncured him. Is it to bc wondered at that Mr. McGrath considers \"Fruit-a-tives''\na wonderful remedy ! They are wonderful indeed, and they will prove their\nvirtues to every sufferer from Rheumatism who will give them a fair trial.\nMR. TIMOTHY MCGRATH.\n130 Atlantic Ave., Montreal, March ist. 1912.\n\"For years I suffered from Rheumatism, being unable to work for weeks\ndt a time, and spent hundreds of dollars on doctors' medicine, besides receiving\ntreatment at Notre Dame Hospital where I was informed that I was incurable. I\nwas discouraged when a friend advised me to try \"Fruit-a-tivcs''. After using\nthree packages, I felt relieved and continued until I had used five packages when a\ncomplete cure was the result, after years of doctoring failed. I consider \"Fruit-\na-tlves\" a wondcrtul remedy. I am now a well man, having gained twelve pounds\nin weight. You are at liberty to use this testimonial to prove to others the good\nthat \"Fruit-a-tives\" has done mc\". 1 TIMOTHY McGRATH.\nRheumatism is caused by Uric Acid forming in the blood. This poisonous\nmaterial attacks the gristle covering the joints and muscles and produces the intense\npain. Uric acid is formed when the kidneys, bowels and skin fail to rid the\nsystem of waste matter. This waste matter, or urea, combines with the acid in the\nblood, to form uric acid. The only way that Rheumatism can bc cured is to cure\nthe acid condition of the stomach, and to purify the blood. \"Fruit-a-tivca\" docs\nthis because it is the greatest stomach tonic and blood purifying medicine. \"Fruit-\na-tives\" stimulates to renewed activity thc liver, bowels, kidneys and skin. It\nremoves urea and uric acid and cures Indigestion. Without exaggeration, it may\nbe stated that \"Fruit-a-tives\" is the most scientific remedy in the world for Rheumatism. 50c, a box, 6 for J2.50, trial size, 25c, At all dealers or sent on\nreceipt of price by Fruit-a-tives Limited, Ottawa.\nInto tho bush and undoubted I y entered\nthis city during the night.\nCAUGHT IN   BELT\nHURLED AGAINST RAFTER\nfTtv  Daily  N'ows  Lrascd  Wlre.l\nCADQABY.   -Min..
