The measure proposes to make il arbitrary to set the clock ahead one hour over the cnlire counlry during the months of long daylight. This has proved of inestimable benefit In Europe, and it would bc equally beneficial on Ibis continent. In some pails of Canada daylight saving has been tried and has proved more or less of a failure Tllis, however, has been because the movement in each Instance was a purely local one, adopted by municipalities, To bc successful, such a n easure must prevail over the whole of Canada, and if we can work wilh Uncle Sam, as it now seems ihere will bc an opportunity of doing, so i.iucl, lhc belter.���Montreal Herald, ���_ \l /'-^iS h/ /A X Have You Ever Suspected that the cause of various annoying ills might lie in the daily cup of tea or coffee?

Canada's "Noble Men" In Japan they have a special clan of fighting men who arc known as the Samurai, and whose whole life is devoted to the precept and practice of patriotism. Canada's noble men arc more than that. When the war broke out they were engaged in every kind of profession, business and trade. Sonic were rich beyond the dream of avarice, to use a commonplace illustration, Others were woi king out their destiny on a quiet level of prosperity, Others again were down and oul, adrift in the lowest depths of adversity.���Montreal News.

Tiny saw a comrade vnnir-h iu a whiff of smoke, simply put their ears back, and carried on.

The Earl of Di rby, Secretary of State for War, speaking at Bolton expressed lhe firm opinion that ihe critical period of the war would occur in the next few months, "I v. ould be a false friend," he said, "if 1 did not warn the country that this war is going to bc long continued, and the struggle even more Litter than in the past, It can only be won by everyone doing his utmost.

The restricted import of machinery and machinery pans, and the prohibition of the export of wood and paper give rise to the greater number ot complaints.

Canada's Revenue Largeet in History A press dispatch from Ottawa states that the revenue of the Dominion in 1916-17 was the largest in history, and continues; The ordinary revenue of the Dominion j it is stated in the 12 months ended 1 March 31, amounted to about $230- ' 000,000 or $10,000,000 more than that of 1914-15- The revenue of the past year will be sufficient to meet all the ordinary and capital expenditures of the country, and, in addition, pay $50 000,000 or $60,000,000 for thc expenditures for war purposes. The total trade of the Dominion 'ill be found to have reached about $2,000,000.000 or $1,000,000,000 more than that of the fiscal yecr in which the war began %?jfc Before you invest in a new range let me show you the Kootenay's sensible ideas for saving time and labor. su For sale by C.

Something of fear, of defiance, of insolence. ll was gone and the man was answering him in lho case, oily voice. "Very likely; Mr.' seen you, of course, for some months, knocked up againsl or twice."

Something thai was not altogether unbecoming came into ibe face of easy assurance, giving il a momentary dignity; something of dislike for bring praised for achievements which their dorr was not likely to ovevaluc.

"Cooper disappeared when the soldiers canio lhal night," ho Slid to himself, "And ii wa- a detachment of Hussars���my own regiment. I believe he was in llu- regiment, But his name was not Cooper." (To lie Continued,) Dumb Victims ot the War Military Hospital Lantern Slides Fear That Wounded Men Do Not Receive Proper Treatment ls Dispelled An Ontario minister the other day borrowed from the Military Hospitals Commission a set of lantern slides. 'Ihese slides show what goes cn al ihc hospitals and sanatoria. thai is, they show something of how- cur injured soldiers are being restored lo hcallh and lo power for self- support, however serious their injuries may be, Tlle minister exhibited the slides al three counlry churches under his charge. In returning lhe set he writes: "My recording steward, who is also the, postmaster and chairman of lhe local recruiting league, says lhcy should be shown in every community. 'Ihey meet the unresl in many falili- lios who have feared lhat lhe maimed who ret in ii will bo forced lo sell load pencils or such like. "What | should havc done wns tn ask for Ihem a longer period and put them on in every available cliurrh in lliis district. A man with a wclj prepared lecture and a few local slides could render a valuable service to the country, both in allaying the unrest above referred to and in removing lho prejudice in some Iambics from which recruits might be secured." The Troublesome Bore Matt. VV. Ransome, once Senator from North Carolina, made politeness a poinl of conscience, One day he saw the very worst bore of his acquaintance, and, wilh a short "Howdy do?" brushed swiftly past. The bore, evidently hurt, proceeded sadly. Ransom's conscience smote liim. After len steps ho turned, and with - pleasant smile called back: "Good-bye, Simpklnsl I've been thinking a mighty heap about you lately, Siuipkins." 'lho boie's face relaxed. "Ah!" said ho, u turning. Ransom waved him hack wildly, crying: "I've been thinking a mighty heap aboul you lately, Siuipkins, bul don't come back, Siuipkins, don't come back!" Appalling Loss of Horses on Baltic Fronts of Europe "It is almost impossible for the mind lo grasp the enormous waslago. in horseflesh on lln- battle fronts of Europe," remarked Thomas Stevens, of Montreal, it capitalist who has supplied the French government wilh many horses in llie lasl two yeais. "If you have never seen 2,500 horses in a bunch you cannot perhaps understand what a great number oi animals that total makes. It has been estimated by the military experts of France that tho wastage��� and by wastage is meant the animals either killed or injured, and not death from natural causes ���in thr- last two years on the west front was between forty-five and forty-seven thousand a- month for every mile. In the first' night of the drive al Verdun in e.ght hours there was a wastage of 5,011 on the three-mile front. "Every eight miles along the wesl front there is a horse hospital. The percentage of horses in those hospitals is approximately 21 placed there for sickness, and from 68 lo 72 per ccnl. because of injuries, The United States has supplied a large number of lire horsi s used by the armies of the Allies. At the beginning of the war the French had about 525,000 horses, and tho Germans approximately 720,000. The Allies, of course, have purchased many thousands o, horses from Ihe LTniled Stales and Canada. The supply used by Germany came, mostly from Auslria- Hungary and Norway and Sweden. "Since October, 1914, there have been shipped from this counlry to trance aud England about 2,815,000 horses. The French government has1 paid to exporters tlirougli Now Vork for theso animals something like 380 ] million dollar.-.

ST. VITUS DANCE AFFECTS MANY CHILDREN This Trouble Can be Cured Through the Use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills St. Vitus Dance is much more common than is generally imagined. The trouble is often mistaken for mere nervousness, or awkwardness. It usually attacks young children, most often between the ages of six and fourteen���though older persons may be affected with it. The most common symptom is twitching of the muscles of the face and limbs. As llie disease progresses this twitching takes the form of spasms in which lhc jerking motion may bc confined to the head, or all the limbs may be affected. The patient is frequently unable to hold anything in the hands or walk steadily, and in severe cases the speech niay be affecled. The disease is due lo impoverished nerves, owing to the blood bring out of condition and can be cured by the use of Dr. Williams' Pink I'ills, which enrich the blood, strengthen the nerves, and in this way restore Ihc sufferer to good health. Any symptom of nerve trouble in young children should bc promptly treated as it is almost sure to lead to St. Vitus Dance. The foi lowing is proof of the power of Dr. Williams' Pink I'ills to cure this trouble. Miss Mallie Cuinmings, P.. R. No. 3, Pctcrboro, Ont., says:���"1 was attacked with what the doctor said was St. Vitus Dance. Both njy bands trembled so as lo practically useless. Then the trouble went to my left side, and from that to my right leg, and left mi- in such a condition that 1 was not able to go out oi the house. I took the doctor's medicine without getting any benefit. Then I tried another remedy with the same poor results. At this stage I was advised to try Dr. Williams' Pink I ills and did so, with the result that they fully restored me to health, and 1 have not had the slightest symptom of nervous trouble since. I can recommend these pills to anyone who is suffering from nervous trouble, and hope they will profit by my experience." You can get Dr. Williams' Pink Fills from any drug dealer or by mail at 50 cents ii box or six boxes for S_.50 from The D��v Wiliams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Out.

They were ont on a country road by this time. Egerton was talking away in excited good humor. lie was telling the laic of how he had met his wife, the daughter of a broken-down, rather radish younger sou of a peer, who lived in an Essex village on a wretched income, and turned his daughters out to work for liim.

South--oily, tlle Squire railed il in his own iuin-1, loathing the man. lie forced himself'to look at what hc loathed. Hilary had been quite riglit. Cooper was not thc sort of man onc would care to introduce to ladies of one's family, he thought, and wa.s enraged against Lionel Egerton. "I believe I've seen you before," he said, in a cold, haughty voice, An extraordinary change came ovcr Cooper's face, and passed so rapidly that the Squire wondered if he had not imagined it. Something of fear, of defiance, oi insolence. li was gone and the man ivas answering him in tlie ease, oily voice, "Very likely,' Mr.' Mcyrick, I've seen you, of course. I've been here for some months, and we hav. knocked up againsl each other once oi twice." "You were al Breakback Hill the night of thc accident'-'" "Ah, yes, I was Aud you! You were doing great work, Mr. Mcyrick. I wasn't sure il was you bin I thought when I saw you riding afterwards lhat I recognized vou. There was another change in his face, as though lie hail lowered Ids guard, had become easy from being tense, watchful. "And you," said thc Squire, unwillingly. "You did more than fifty men." Something that was nol altogether unbecoming came into the face of easy assurance, giving it a momentary dignity; something of dislike for hi ing praised for achievements which their doer was not likely to ovcvalue. At least, thc Squire said to himself conscientiously, this was a man of courage. Hc conceded so much with a griidgingncss unlike him. For the rest the man was a bounder. Hc detested his voice. He could not have explained to himself his dislike of tlie man, so strong was il, like a primitive emotion. Some vague memory stirred in liim. He had seen lhc man before��� iu a soldier's tunic, his head close- cropped, ' younger, less florid���or someone very like him. He puzzled over the remembrance. Where was it. When? "1 shoitld always trust Cooper in any emergency," Lionel Egerton was saying, wilh a friendly baud On llu. man's shoulder. "You don't know the debt wc are under lo him, Squire. Perhaps Dolly told you? I sometimes dream of it���Doll and little .Susan at the level crossing; lhc express coming round the corner; the little pony jibbing, right in the path of the express. If this fellow bad not happened to be there, with his steady head and quick wit iu an emergency��� Good Lord!" So lhat was itl That explained the acceptance by the Egcrtons, even by Mrs. Egerton, who was not nat urally a Bohemian, and disliked him ���of a man obviously not a gentleman . The Squire .put away a harsh word becans'- thr' fellow hnd saved Dolly. With tlift florid color, that voice; not of the stuff of which gentlemen arc made. He wished himself���if not himself, another man��� had saved Dolly. All at once in his own mind lie conceded that the fellow bad laid him, as well as the others, under a debt that could never he paid. What folly was this, with his forty years! If he had been lli'ary, now! Cooper remarked wilh a certain uneasy jocularity that il was manners not to talk about people before, their faces ,and turned off lo something about lhe Poiut-lo-Point Steeplechase to bc run at "vlihluiay in tlie following week. "Wish 1 could go." hc said; "bul I've business in London next week, so I've in, chance of dropping a bit " Suddenly the Squire found his clue. "Were you ever in Dublin?" he asked. "At the Island Bridge Bar- Kicks? 1 was there in " "Never," said Cooper; but his eyes had blanched as though lightening had flashed before them. "[ have never been in Dublin in my life." As they went homeward, while E .- erton tallied of ihc various things, the Squire giving him only half an car, elucidation flashed upon liim. "Cooper disappeared when the soldiers came that night," he said lo himself. "And it was a detachment of llnssrirs���my own regiment. I believe hc was ill the regiment, Bill his name was not Cooper." (To Be Continued.) Dumb Victims of the War Appalling Loss of Horses on Battle Fronts of Europe "It is almost impossible for the mind lo grasp the enormous wastage iu horseflesh on tin- battle fronts of Europe," remarked Thomas Stevens, of Montreal, a capitalist who has supplied the French governnieni wiih many horses in the lasl two yeais. "If you have never Seen 2,500 horses in a bunch you cannot perhaps understand what a great number oi animals that total makes. It has becn estimated by lhc military experts of France that the wastage��� and by wastage is meant the animals either killed or injured, and not death from natural causes���in the last two years on lhc west front was between forty-five and forty-seven thousand a- mouth for every mile, lu lhe first' night of the drive at Verdun in eight hours there was a wastage of 5,Oil on the three-mile front. "livery eight miles along lhe west front there is a horse hospital. The percentage of horses iu these hospitals is approximately 27 placed there for sickness, and from 68 lo 72 per cent, because erf injuries. 'I'he Uniled States has supplied a large number of tire horses used by thc armies of lhc Allies. At the beginning uf; lhc war the French had about 525,000 horses, ami the Germans approximately 720,000. The Allies, of course, have purchased many thousands oi horses from ihe I'nited Slates and Canada. The supply used by Germany came mostly from Austria- j Hungary and Norway and Sweden-. "Since October, 191-1, there have! been shipped from lhis counlry to! I ranee and England about 2,815,000 horses. The French government has1 paid to exporters through New York: for these anin ils something like 380 million dollars. Yet the United States still has a large supply of good horses I left���not the cavalry kind, but for hold and heavy artillery purposes." Military Hospital Lantern Slides Fear That Wounded Men Do Not Receive Proper Treatment Is Dispelled An Ontario minister the other day borrowed from the Military Hospitals Commission a set of lantern slides. These slides show what goes en al the hospitals and sanatoria, ihai is, they show something of how- cur injured soldiers are being restored to health and to power for sclf- support, however serious their injuries may bc. Thc minister exhibited the slides at three country chinches under his charge, In returning the set he writes; "My recording steward, who is also the postmaster and chairman of the local recruiting league, says lhcy should be, shown in every community. 'ihey meet the unrest in many families who have feared lhat the maimed who return will bc forced lo sell lead pencils or such like. "What 1 should have done was to ask for them a longer period ami put them on in every available church in this district. A man with a well prepared lecture and a few local slides could render a valuable service to the country, both in allaying the unrest above referred to and in removing the prejudice in some lam- ilies fronl which recruits might be secured." The Troublesome Bore Matt. W. Ransome, once Senator from North Carolina, made politeness a point of conscience. Onc day ha saw the very worst bore of bis acquaintance, and, wilh a short "Howdy-do?" brushed swiftly past. The bore, evidently hurt, proceeded sadly. Ransom's conscience smote him. Afler ten slips he turned, and with a pleasant smile called back: "Good-bye, Siuipkins! I've been thinking a mighty heap about you lately, Siuipkins." 'I'he bote's face relaxed, "Ahl" saitl he, returning. Hansom waved him back wildly, crying: "I've been thinking a mighty heap about you lately, Siuipkins, but don't come back-, Siuipkins, don't come back!" Extremely Severe Halifax (N.S.)

One side wanted peace mid the other did not want it, 'i'he record is plain. The conclusions that must bc drawn from it no longer iccm seriously contradicted even by those who argue in favor of an inconclusive peace. It is said that Germany was so environed that she was justified in drawing her sword, but that sic drew il while her present en- eiiri'.-s wcrc begging her to agree lo arbitration and adjustment is admitted. If there is sincere belief lhal this fact has no pertinence onc may justify the demand for an immediate laying down of arms. But if one believes, as Mr. Ilalfoiir docs, that this means speb a condonation of evil doings as will stimulate other evil do. Ing, il is not easy to make peace dc- n amis aeeortl with genuine pacifism.

Lccb, president of thc Chicago Board of Education, declared that he was aware of lhc fact, as had been charged, that male high school principals paid considerable attention to lhe faces and forms of prospective women teachers. And in justification he pleaded that the principals "wcrc only human." Mrs. George P, Yosbrink, a board member, had charged that principals paid less attention to mental qualifications of teachers they recommended for employment Ihan they did to charm of face of figure. "You would think llicy were filling up a musical comedy chorus instead of seeking fit guides for children," protested Mrs. Vosbrink. An Enduring Blockade Germany's submarine war may or may not break the war blockade that has been creeled against her, but whether it docs or not, it will erect against her a permanent blockade far wider in extent, a blockade which will leave ils mark on Germany's commerce till long after the men who are misleading her into her insane course arc dead and gone.

ST. VITUS DANCE AFFECTS MANY CHILDREN This Trouble Can be Cured Through the Use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills St, Vitus Dance is much more common than is generally imagined, The trouble is often mistaken for mere nervousness, or awkwardness. It usually al tacks young- children, most often between lhe ages of six and fourteen���though older persons may bc affected with it. The most common symptom is twitching of the muscles of llie face and limbs. As the disease progresses this twitching tikes the form of spasms in wliicli the jerking motion may bc confined to the head, or all the limbs may bc affected. The patient is frequently unable to hold anything in the hands or walk steadily, and in severe cases llie speech may be affected. The disease is due lo impoverished nerves, owing to the blood being out of condition and can bc cured by the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Tills, which enrich the blood, strengthen llie nerves, and in this way restore the sufferer to good health. Any symptom of nerve trouble in young children should bc promptly treated as it is almost sure to lead to St. Vitus Dance. The foi lowing is proof of the power of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to cure this trouble. Miss Ilaltie Cummings, R. R. No. 3, Pctcrboro, Out., says:���"I was attacked with what tiie doctor said was St. Vitus Dance. Both u)y hands trembled so as to practically useless. Then the trouble went to my left side, and from that to my right leg, and left mc in such a condition that I was not able to go out ol the house. I took the doctor's medicine without getting any benefit. Then I tried another remedy with the same poor results. At this stage I was advised to try Dr. Williams' Pink f ills and did so, with the result that Ihey fully restored me to health, and 1 have not had the slightest symptom of nervous trouble since. I can recommend these pills to anyone who is suffering from nervous trouble, and hope they will profit by my experience." You cau get Dr. Williams' Pink I'ills from any drug dealer or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dtv Wiliams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.
