y » -.tiik-'-^^" THE SIZE OF IT, I'ew People Have Any Idea of the Extent of Canada. The new railway line across tho tonlinent to bu built by Iho Grand CVunk will run througli a country tliat is HOO miles north of Toronto. This new lino will parallel the 0. I'- ll. Hcros.s tho Western plains, yet it will run ."iOO miles north of the road ft parallels. This uieaiis that al- Ihongh, ill the public iiiiiid and to the eye, as one looks at a map, the roads may seem to compote with each other and give a duplicate ser- vice, there stretches between them a range of rich country about as tar licrass as it is fioui Toronto to Mont- real. Through this intervening country, however, the Canadian Northern will run. but even so. all three roads will have a wide range of country to open up and from which to draw business. 'I lias long been said that the iVace Ulver country, through which the grand Trunk v.'ill carry its line, is desliiied to be tho greatest wheat-growing region in America. To realize llie size and possibilitie.'J of tho Canada of the future one needs but to reflect that these vast wheat llelds will lie 800 miles north of Toronto. Time thus gives cITec- tive answer to those people in the United States and Europe who have chargc^d that Canada is too far north to over amount to much. CURED ONCE AND FOR ALL f^ODP'S KIDNEY PILLS MAKE rO HALFWAY WOHK OF KIDNEY DISEASE. y. J. McDonald H&d Rheumatism and Dropsy, was Cured by Dodd's Kidney Pills, and Has Had no Seturn of the Trouble :or Five Years. Windsor, Ont., Dec. 8.â€" (Special)â€" It has been acknovrledged for some ?e»r3 that Dodd's Kidney Pills rould cure any case of Kidney Di.s- luse. and of late those interested in nodicaT science have been watching ihose cures to convince themselves Uiat they ware permanent. Gradual- y the conviction is forc«d that Dodd'.t Kidney Pills cure once and lor all. One more proof of this Is (urni-shed by .lohn J. McDonald, a well known farmer, now residing at 130 Langlota Ave. Five yoaJ's ago be was troubled with flheua»iati.im and Dropsy. For two years lie suf- fered terribly, and the UltTcrent inedi- cinca he tried failed to relieve him. His legs were swollen and tlio pains ho sutTered were most acute. Ho iim-d Dodd's Kidney Pills, was cured, and his cure caused quite a sensation at tho timo. Mr. McDonald, speaking of his cure recently, says ; "I have had no rntiiru of my trouble up to the presx^nt, and I am not anxious for any. It is with pleasure 1 acknowledge that Dodd's ICidney Pills cured me. I found them just as represented, and they did tor mo far more than I expected Ihey would." PERFUMES FOR HEALTH. Woman With Scented Handkerchief a Benefactor. To preserve onc'.s beaut.v and cn- hanco one's attractiveness, ])orfumea »re nece.ssary. They a.i"e stiniulating aiKl refre.'ihing, especially lavender, k'miiii, rose and violet. They may prove even more benelicial by de- Hro.ying disease germs. The liberal u.se of scent on the iandki-rchiof is calculated to make it iHili.septic and to destroy the fernis in it. The use of a perfumed •jr anti.septic handkerchief is, there- lore, consistent with the dictates of Daclcriology. So that, instead of practising a luxurious habit, a wo- iiaii who puts scent on her handker- rliiefs may actually be' doing good lo her neighbors by chocking the di»- Iribution of infectious materials. The basis of all perfumes is an es- lential oil of some kiud, derivod lither naturally from flowers or (eaves, or arlilicially by a synthetic procQs,s. In either case, the ossentinl til is a powerful antiseptic and \iq»- ic.sees disinfecting properties, not less in degree than thoco of carbolic icid. The love of perfumes has never >oen the monopoly of the .sybarite. Nero, tho tyrant . had not only his tarinents, but also bis body, daily ipra.vod with water ilistilled from ',he choicest ro.scs of his empile. Loui.s XIV. was inseparable from Ihe heavy scent of orange blossoms. rhi? great Uidielicu lived in rooms K) tilled with (lower odors that his ;ourtiers nearly swooned upon enter- ing them. tiuecn Elizabeth of England per- fumed her wigs with Spanish leather Iteopod in musk. In tho boudoirs of (a.'»liionK.ble ladies perfumed candles were burned, and perfumed blocks or rakes were thrown into the tiro in iirdir to till the air with fragrance, (nd coffers containing expensive icents were kept IIANOING IN TirE IIOOM. A UiiKl of scented lozenge was usfod to perfume the breath, and wigs or one'.H own locks wore scented. The old process of perfuming the hair wns first to wash It thoroughly, drying, it carefully, and then heavily imprxiignatu it with the odor from a iburnJng pastille. The head was llooscly covered with a cloth, tho pa.slillo iboiiig held under the cloth, first on one side of the head, then on the other, as near the roots as pos- sible. In Paris to-day a fa.'thionable hair- dresser will impart any perfume de- sired to tlie hair. It is done by dusting the scalp thickly with finely powdered orris root it a violet odor is desired. After it has been thoroughly rub- bed into the scalp hot dry cloths are wrapiwd about the head. Finally the powder is carefully and thor- oughly brushed out. The delicate fragrance like that of violets is de- lightful, but it is as .s.hort lived as tho bloom of the (lower and tho pro- cess con.sumes hours. Every woman may not care to go to tho trouble of perfuming her hair, but it well to perfume slightly all but it is well to perfume slightly all UrcHses, underclothing and bed linen, as well as one's stationery. Don't let tho .scent go beyond a suggestion; never strong enough to bo very noticeable to others. If perfumes, as some will tell you, exercise a very marked cITect on cer- tain temperaments, they should be cho.-ren with deliberation and discre- tion, it you want to be lovable and amiable. A violet scented atmosphere, Jor example, makes those who are .sur- rounded by its influence aftectionate and peace-loving. Wommi of lovable natures are always fond of violets. Heliotrope usually finds devotees among the dainty, neat and rather unassuming dispositions, who dis- like fuss and notoriety. Uoso perfume is most frec|uontly usod by those of warm-hearted, un- imaginative temperaments who are inclined to extravagance and have a dLsregard of the more serious issues of life. â€" 1- ENGLISH SPAVIN LINIMENT remoTts all hard, goft or calloused Lumps sud BlemMhe.s from borsaa.

THE BLOOD. Tho blood is life. We derive from the blood life, power, beauty; and reason, as the doctors have been paying from timo immemorial. A healthy body, a fresh appearance, and generally all tho abilities wo possess depend on that source of life. It is therefore the duty of every sensible man to keep tho blood as pure and normal as possible. Na- luro in its indnito wisdom, has given us a thermometer indicating the state of the blood, which appeals to our reason by giving notice of its impurity. Small eruptions of tho skin, to which we scarcely pay any attention, headache, ringing noises in the ears, lassitude, slcoplessiness, are gaiierally a sign that tho blood is not ill its normal state, but it is lillod with noxious substances. These symptoms deserve our full at- tention. If more attention were ptiid to th<>se symptoms, and steps taken to remove them, then many illnesses from which we aulTer would becomo unknown. and the human body Would become stronger and healthier. Attention therefore should bo paid to those Warning signs, and the blood can be purified and poisonous substances removed from it by the use of Dr. August Koenig'a Ham- burg Drops, discovered more than 60 years ago. "I see," he said, "that coal ha>i gone up again." "Has it ?" she re- plied. "And they're raising rents," lie continued. "Well," she exclaim- ed, flaring up, "if you wish to have our engagement broken ulT say so. I always hate to have people beat about the bush In a case of this kind." SOMETHING TO RESIEUDER.

A faithful servant had grown old in the service of a railway company that was well known for its mean- ness, and at last became too feeble to work.
