STARTLING CHANGES COMING British Government to Accept Peers' Amendments, Says a London Paper A despatch from London, Eng- land, says: The Daily Telegraph's Parliamentary correspondent writes that a startling change my soon be expected in the political situa- tion.

The Prime Minister has been in personal communication with a prominent member of the Opposi- tion during the last few days, and I am assured that the leaders of the Unionist party, in order to save the country from civil war, will recom- mend their followers to support the amending bill as passed by the Lords. In that case, the Nation alists will be out-voted, although they will probably be supported by a certain section of the radical par- ty. What will follow remains to be seen, but I have good grounds for stating that, in spite of the line taken by the Lord Chancellor in the House of Lords to-day, the Gov- ernment will as a -last resort, con- cede the vexed question of area." HOMESTEAD IHTIES. Special Treatment Asked For Some District*. A despatch from Ottawa, says: Representations have been made to the Interior Department from homesteaders in Saskatchewan, asking for a relaxation of the home- stead laws in view of hard crops this year. The appeals received so far Come ' from the Maple Creek district, which is usually dry land, and it is claimed that as a result of lack of rain the crops there will be very light. The request is there- fore made that the holders of home- steads bo allowed to take two months off in the Fall to engage in outside threshing and other labor, and that these two months be ac- cepted as, part of the homestead duties. Reports on the whole in- dicate, however, that the Western wheat crop will be a good one. , KK Ivl U I!Y A IIOKSi:. I ij-ini.-.i Farmer Killed Within Sight i.i Mi- Wife.

"My wife suggested a trial of Grape-Nuts and as I had to eat something or starve, I concluded to take her advice. She fixed me up a dish and I remarked at the time thai the quality was all right, but the quantity was too ismall I wanted a snucerful.

Let me give you a shock," the speaker said, by way of a warning. "Tuberculosis may be put into three groups. All of us who are here come in the first. If I hod 'an instrument herewith which I could look into the chests or the abdomen of each of you, the pro- bability is that in ninety per cent, of you would be found somewhere a small area of tuberculosis.

Unscrupulous manufacturers of baking powder, in order to sell their product, sometimes resort to the old game of what is known as "the glass test." In reality it la no test at all, but, in cases where the prospective buyer does not understand that the so-called "test" is a fake, pure and simple, the salesman i sometimes able to make him believe it shows conclusively that the io-callcd baking powder he is selling, and which of course contains egg albumen, is superior to other brands which do not contain this ingredient. Bulletin No. 21. issued by Dairy and Food Bureau of the State of Utah, reads as follows: "The sale in the State of Utah of baking powders containing minute quantities of dried egg (albumen) is declared illegal. The albumen in these baking powders does not actually increase the leavening power of the powder, but by a series of unfair and deceptive tests such powders are made to appear to the Innocent consumer to possess three or four times their actual leavening power."

But the germ is in us, though nega- * tire, and with all of us there is the possibility of slipping into the twc . other groups. "The second group comprises those in whjpm the disease is ac- live enough to produce symptoms, . but in whom there is the possibility of arrest or cure, with restoration to working health. Those in the third group are doomed, the disease pro- , gresses week by week, month by month, year by year, and from one year to five sees the end. "When .workers have living wa- . ges, when the house becomes the home, when the nation spends on * food what is spends on drink, then, , instead of hundreds of thousands, there will be millions in the first group, with practically immunity.

"All records will be bor- ken," lie says. The crops will pro- bably be light in the southwest part of Saskatchewan and in south- ern Alberta, he believes, due to drought, but in the Itogina district grain is already heading out, and an early as well as a record crop seoms assured. The hog industry, he continued, has received an enor- mous impetus during the last six months. This has resulted from the mixed funning propaganda preached so widely in the wost dur- ing the past two or three years. Winnipeg Grain. Winnipeg. July 14.

A despatch from Paris, says: Mon- than three and one-half bil- lion francs (1700,006,000) was paid on Wediu'^dity by the subscribers to the new Government loan, accord- ing to the completed figures issued by the Minister of Finance. The nominal capital of the Routes issued was 8*4,111,000 francs. This was subscribed for more than forty times over, and the money paid in represented the first instalment of ten per cent. Of this great sum, seven-eighths was hard cash, and the other eight in Treasury notes and bonds.
