When a slight cold fastens on you in early winter you are apt to regard it merely as an annoyance--not a thing worth serious consideration. You usually feel like taking something syrupy, with per- haps a touch of spirits in it, to warm you up and stop the cough. But there is a better way. The cough, the red eyes and uncomfortable head are not the cold. They are only the symptoms. They are like the leaves of a weed sticking above ground. The surest way to get rid of them and prevent their sprouting again is to pull up the root. You sometimes say, "This cold is all over me." Every cold you have is, to a certain degree, all over you. It is evidence of a slight general weakness. It usually steals in on you at a time when the body is a little below its nor- mal tone and the surest way to get rid of it is to bring the whole system up to its right level. You may need some medi- cine. Your doctor will know. But a mere expectorant will do nothing toward restoring the body to a healthy standard. At the best its action is merely local and gives only tempo- rary relief. Scott's Emulsion does this and more, A small quantity of the emulsion taken regularly for a few days will supply the lack of proper nourishment in ordinary food. It is rich in the substances of which healthy blood is composed, and makes itself quickly felt in the throat and bronchial tubes. It starts the flow-of mucous and: relieves an ob- stinate cough sooner than any expectorant will do. \ " The emulsion does more than rid you of a cough. "It rids you of the cold which is the root of the cough. Still more, it helps to protect you against a return of the trouble and against its going: deeper. Scott's Emulsion is aptly termed a food-medicine. It contains the nourishing prop- erties of the whole cod liver oil, emulsified and combined with the medicinal qualities of hypophosphites,' of lime and soda. "It is probably more widely recommended by phy- sicians for use in coughs and colds than any other prepa ration. + po hong + So-called ti cordials and extracts of cod liver oil do not contain the value of the whole oil and-are worth- less in cases where a pure re- liable cod liver oil preparation is needed. Scott's Emulsion has been the standard for over twenty-five years. We will send a sample free to anyone on. request.

Bh ult h TOLL QUESTION: WAS DISCUSSED BY THE COUNTY COUNCIL. To Submit the Matter for the Vote of the People in January -- Deputations Present--- The Resolutions Passed. At the county council session of Thursday afternoon, deputations were present from the board of trade, from the citizens' meeting of Tuesday even- ing, and also members of the civie property committee to discuss the ad- visability of abolishing tolls on eoun- ty roads and city markets. Mayor Shaw occupied a chair inside the war- den's pulpit. % 5 H. W. Richardson was the first speaker, and pointed out that the county was paying $6,000 for keeping up toll gates, and received last year only $2500 in receipts. He told of the benefits that would accrue from abolishing tolls. Mr. Richardson fur- ther stated that he would favor allow- ing farmers to use the markets on all days of the week and at any time of the day. Mr. Pense held that the stronger Kingston became, the better would the markets become, and the farmers would benefit as much as the city from this. He pointed out that tne great- est encouragement. should come from the county, because they were getting a double benefit--having tolls thrown off their roads and off the city mar- kets, which they enjoyed. The speaker referred to the government's position in connection with the York Road, which matter would be brought to a crucial point within a year, as soon as it was removed from the arena of politics. The government could not be expected to give the road debt over, for it would be accused of bri- bery for such an act, but he declared that the county would find the gov- ernment very reasonable when the time of settlement arrived. Mayor Shaw stated that the civic deputation was not from the city council. The toll question would be considered by that body next Monday evening, and he was satisfied that the county would be met in a fair spirit. Alderman White would not commit himself, but stated that he thought the city.should get some fair return from the county for throwing off mar- ket tolls, as the benefit in that case would be wholly with the county. Brief remarks were also made by Capt. Gaskin, D. A. Weese and Ald- ermen Graham, Tait and King. Capt. Gaskin, president of the board of trade, thought that the county should throw off the road tolls, with- out the city doing away with those of the markets, and for the reason that Kingston has done so much for Frontenac in the past without receiv- ing anything in return. ¥or instance, he showed that the city had lost $157. 000 invested in county roads, 'made up as follows: Kingston and Phillips ville road, $52,000; Kingston, Pitts burg and Gananoque road, $20,000; Kingston and Perth road, $70,000: Wolfe Island canal. $15,000. Of that total amount ($157,000) $20,000 had been -converted into Cataraqui bridge stock, leaving £137.000 loss. The county councillors then express- ed their opinions, which were most favorable. Councillor Reynolds want- ed to know what would be done about Cataraqui bridge, which did not seem to belong to "either city or county. That certainly had to be considered. He pointed-out that the county vould have to pay £70,000 to buy up the roads necessary. lf the city did right, he was sure the county would de the same thing, and 4n two years he hoped go' see tolls a thing of the past. Councilley "Avery believed the coun tv people were faverable to the aboli tion of road tolls. and was sure that they would vote that way next Jan- uary when the question would be sub mitted to them. Councillor Pringle "held that the people of Kingston were driving trade away from -the city by market tolls. Councillor' Toner told of Pittsburg township--having "abolished eight toll cates, He stated that Cataraqui bridge was an awful barrier. It was worse than the market tolls, and the charges on it would also have to be removed to make a clean sheet. : Councillor Ruttan stated that it cost him fifty-two cents in toll to vis it Kingston, including market charges. After the deputations had departed, this resolution was moved by Coun- cillor Revnolds, seconded by Council lor Avery, and carried unanimously : To Submit To The People. "Through our engineer we have as certained: the length of the several toll roads in the - county and their ap- proximate value. We Have made diligent enquiry inte the svstem of county roads in Hast ings where there are some 400 miles of roads under the direct control of the countv and smaintained-at-an annual cost of about $30 per mile, not in cluding bridges. After five years ex- perience of the contract system o' \eceping their roads repaired, Hastings abandoned that system as unsatisfac tory. At present they have a general superintendent of roads, at a fixed salary. and the 400 miles are divided into sections, over each: of which is a foreman and gang of men. 'The coun- ty council apportions the amount tc cach section, and the money is laid out under the direction 'and super vision of the superintendent. This sys- wem has proved very satisfactory, anc Hastings county boasts of the bes vouds of any county 'in the province and would not on any account ge back to the old system of toll roads In the scheme which <we respectiully offer for your earnest and careful con- Bad Coughs 'Neglected colds always | lead to something serious.

We would. further suggest that the clerk ascertain what proportion 'of | saia grant should go to each town- ship and report to the council. With the view to ascertaining the amount of money necessary to raise in order to purchase the several toll roads, we would recommend that the clerk write the several road com- panies for their asking price. We have ascertained the, number of days of | county, and would strongly urge upon the several | townships the advisability of com- muting all statute labor. We would further suggest that a vote be taken at the next municipal elections on the question of buying up the several toll roads by the county, and assuming certain' other roads as county roads. Roads To Be Bought. This resolution was also fathered by Councillors Reynolds and Avery : That the county buy up the several toll roads at a fair valuation, to be fixed by mutual agreement or arhitra- tion; that the county assume or place under. county control the following roads : Cataraqui fo Plevna, seventy-seven miles, by Harrow smith, Verona, Bed- ford Station, Parham, Soles' Corners and Ardoch. Mountain Grove to Arden, six miles, from Frontenac Road, by Mountain Grove, to Arden. Cataraqui to Sydenham, thirteen miles, by Kepler. Kingston to Battersea, fourteen miles, by Sunbury. Kingston to Collins Bay, six miles, by Bath Road. Kingston to Perth Road, miles, by Inverary. Barriefield to | Leeds line, twenfy miles, by Joyceville, Barriefield to Leeds line, sixteen miles, by Front Road. Bediord Station to Fermoy, ten miles. Harrowsmith to Sydenham, three miles. That Wolfe Fel#na and Simcoe Isl- and receive 8300 per annum towards ferry service, and Howe Island 850 towards the same purpose, and that said islands be exempt from paying any proportion of cost of toll roads, except York Road; that Pittsburg re- ceive the sum of 81,000 as compensa- tion for roads which they have freed of tolls. That this scheme be submitted bv by:law to the ratepayers for their ap- proval at the municipal elections in January next. A lively discussion took place upon the latter resolution, several council- lors holding that it was rather nre- mature. Councillor Pringle claimed that the matter should go ahead. He alto remarked that it would cost just one-eighth to build a road in the rear of the county as it would in the front. The back townships would be satisfied with ordinary roads of sand. Councillor Reynolds explained that the resolution was a mere outline, but the details would have to be worked out and adjusted by the various township- councils. Warden Spoor closed the discussion by remarking that some municipalities may think they have not been proper- ly dealt with. The matter will be fully adjusted to the satisfaction of all, in proportion to their location and valuation. The matter was mere- Ady introducea for discussion; the coun- cil -was taking a progressive step in :onnection with' the toll and road juestion. If the .next council entered into" it with the same spirit as the resent body, there was no reason why everything should not work out well The motion was put- and carried, Councillor Shannon alone voting nav. sixteen THIEVES AT WORK Strathcona Suffers Many Depreda- : tions by Thieves. .

THIS YOUTH SHOULD WIN. His Plan to Learn a .Trade Was | Unique and Practical. Indianapolis, Nov, 20.--Homer Yerg- an, aged nineteen, was sent to the re- formatory for two years for stealing. He arranged: -the theit- so that he would be caught. He said that he had long wanted to learn a trade, because his education was so limited that he could not hope to make a living in any other way. Whenever he applied for work he found that the rules of the labor unions shut him out and he could not find em- ployment. He went to Chicagn and several other places, but he could not get work in any shop to learn a trade although he offered to bind himself for a term of vears. "T will be glad to go to the peni tentiary,"' he said "for 1 will be put to work at some trade and will learn it, too." 2 Bibby"s. Oak Hall. Bibby's.

Possibilities of the Northern For- | est Resources--Nature May be | Assisted .so That Timber May | be Rapidly Provided. I" The third annual report of the Can- adian Forestry Association which has just' been received is interesting and , contains much practical information on a subject of which too little is known' and to which too little atten- | tion is given by the public. The im- mense possibilities of * our northern forest resources are shown by the fol- lowing extract from the papery Tho- mas Southworth, director of forestry | for Ontario. Although we have at present only 2,643,000 acres in forest reserves, I think it not unreasonable to expect that ultimately the crown forest of Ontario will comprise fully 25,000,000 acres, a state forest larger than is possessed by any other country I know of. What a forest of this size, owned by the people as a whole, will mean to the revenue of the province when placed under scientific control and systematically worked is difficult to conjecture. Already with our waste- ful methods and when only a small part of this territory is being operat- ed, the province receives in revenue about $1,000,000 per year, and that this sum could be enormously increas- ed under the conditions. referred to, no one I think will entertain any seri- ous doubt. The composition of this vast forest is such as to make it the most valuable in the world. While it contains - a large quantity of spruce and birch, the chief paper and furni- ture woods, it is the natural home of the most valuable of all,--the lordly white pine, the tree that has been so largely the cause of the unique posi- {tion occupied by the province of On- | tario as a country without a debt and free from any direct tax for state purposes. The management of such a reserve on. a permanent basis will demand some changes in the method of dis- posal of the timber, and the question arises whether the government should undertake its removal by a staff of men of its own, or if it should dispose by public sale to lumbermen of the right to cut specified quantities over certain areas within a specified time, the cutting to be done under the con- trol of the government officers. Either way it would be necessary to have a 'stall of forest officers sufficiently train- ed to be able to manage the cutting properly so that the least possible loss or damage to the young growth would be occasioned and the continu- ous reproduction of the forest woull be provided for. Another feature of the forestry ques- tion is dealt with by W. N. Hutt in a paper on 'Management of the Farm- er"s Woodlot." The recent scarcity of coal has brought the wood question prominently to the fore and it is re- markable how many of the farming population not only have no wood for sale but actually have to purchase coal or wood for their own use. On many farms there are pieces of land of no- use for agricultural purposes that could very profitably be allowed to grow up in wood. As Mr. Hutt says : "Nature if left to herself will gradu- ally change a scanty coppice into a forest of value, but at best her meth- ods .in forestry are slow and irregular. However, bv careful practical manace- ment, nature may be so assisted that the woodlot may not only supply all present needs for fuel, but give regu- lar- crops of merchantable timber, and year by year increase in permanent va- lue. Growing forest trees are Very sus- ceptible of management; the crooked may be made straight or the straight crooked, the spreading may be made close or the close to spread, just as we wish. While the prices of wheat and | other farm products have been decreas- fing and- are likely to-decrease still {'more, the price of lumber owing to | increasing scarcity has. been continu: | ally going. up. We. are painfully = re- | minded of this fact if we wish to put up any building however small. Any | woods" under careful handling may be | made to produce regular if not annu- | al crops without the expenditure of a tingle dollar for replanting." The dominion government have ad- | opted the plan of assisting *seftlers in | Manitoba and the North-West terri | tories in ohtaining shelter belts and | woodlots By supplying them with tree seeds and seedlings and giving instruc- tion and supervision in the setting out and management of their lots, This opportunity is taken advantage of by a large number in west, and in | view of the extent to which denuda- | tion has proceeded in some parts of the province it might be well to con- sider whether the example of the do- minion bureau of forestry should not be followed in Ontario. The papers by Messrs, McGibbon and Joly de Lothiniere on the pulp indus- try relate primarily to the pravince of Quebec, but are of special interest in | view of the increasing importance of the manufacture of pulp and -paper. | These gentlemen take the stand that the export of pulpwood to the United States should be prohibited.
