The grand duke is a handsome the throme of Holland. His engage- is said to he a pure love match present high their holdings at the prices. The prices realized by the manufacturer for lumber are at their highest. What is evident beyond doubt, however, is the enor- mous value of all kinds of standing timber ns a national asset. We have talked gbout reforestation for years Is it really not time for us to do something ? Probably nothing that could gow be done would in our time repair the loss from fire and various forms of waste in the past, and from the failure to replant. This; however, only accentuptes the necessity for im mediate action, rather than excusing further delay. If we could induce our legislators to veally grapple with the situation in an adequate manner; to ascertain fully the very many forms of waste, and to what extent some of them could be avoided; to map out the areas requiring reforestation which in some parts even in Eastern Canada include large districts where the lumberman has never operated; and having done so, to act with the greatest possible vigor, we might hope to witness the end of this shame ful national loss, and in time we would undoubtedly be amply reward ed for doing what is, in any event, our plain duty." This is the view of a man, in a po sition which perhaps presents the widest opportunities for obtaining a knowledge of the influences that affect the currents of business and has the widest outlook on the sources and growth of our national prosper ity. When such a man speaks as quot ed above, his words are worthy of the fullest consideration by not merely those interested in the lumber in dustry, but by every business man, by our legislators, by every patriotic Canadian. Anyone who has travelled through the forest districts of Canada, east or west, has seen sufficient evidence of the destruction that has been caused Wherever civilization, has penetrated, the forest has suffered, neetllessly, wantonly, uselessly. Along the lines of railway, the routes of travel, and in the path of advancing settlement, the way is marked by burnt and tangled woods, by waste of bare rock or grim rampikes standing bare above a mass of tangled shrubs and briars. Canada is proud of the work of her pionvcers who, out of gloomy woods and path less forests created peaceful farms and happy homes, but the results of ad vancing civilization in our woods for the last quarter of a century have been such as to cause little pride to any true citizen of the dominion. It is rather humiliating to read the state ment by distinguished European foes ters, and one which is almost invari ably made in attempting to estimate the future timber supply of the world, that Canada is one of the countries blessed with the greatest national re sources in this respect, but so little care is taken of them that they can hardly be counted on to be a great or lasting feature in the supply. The Creator has been bountiful, the Can: adian has been a child, knowing no to miro and wasting what it can: not \ : THe paet year in Eastern Canada has been characterized by considerable rainfall so that the loss from fire has not been great, bul the ever-present danger has been exemplified by the for. est fires in the Western United States. In Washington State alone over five billion feet of Douglas fir was des: troyed by fire, a quantity greater than the whole annual product of Canada, about equal to the annual pine pro- duct of the states of Minnesota, Mi: chigan and Wisconsin, and equal fo the estimate of pine for the whole Te: m i districts of Ontario. And the deliberate statement of the official of the burean of forestry, who made &i' enquiry into these fires is that with a proper staff of fire rangers, all this destruction might bave been prevent- ed, for the fires were allowed to. run for days without attention before they assumed a dangerous character, Under favorable circumstances, a few great ' «ub rosa. In other words the govern- ment of Canada has shut the most ad- vanced and independent journal in the dominion out of the mails. The spirit behind the exclusion is that, all down the pike of time has barred the mor al and mental progress of man, roughlocked knowledge and aimed to keep the human race in ignorance, so that a certain element would grow corpulent upon fear and superstition. The epirit aims to keep the people in the rut of custom, and fears anything tending to place man and-woman on a higher plane of earthly existence. It is rampant in Canada, especially in the East. : For ages the church has labored to make people good, and what is the result 7 The record of crime daily served by the press to its patrons plainly shows that the social and re- ligious system under which we live is wrong. It shows that with all the thousands of churches and tens of thousands of preachers a large por- tion of the civilized world are not merely on the road to hades, but are already in it. The mission of Lowery's Claim is largely with a view to show- ing up the false system under which we live, and advocating a course of living whereby all the universe would be in heaven without waiting until physical death pushed them amongst the angels beyond: the élouds. For Le ing this kind of 'a paper the mailed hand has struck it a blow like a cold blast from Russia. Under our present. system of living the world is wet with tears, and the sword is reddened with the blood of millions. The iron heel of lust, power and greed rests upon the necks of the multitude, paying no attention to the moans of babes, the anguish of wo- men or the sobs of strong men. The land is full of jails, churches and sa loons. Un every side we find parsons telling the masses to be good, obey théir masters, be thankful they are alive, and to always remember the passing of the plate. On every side we find saloons legalized by so-called wise legislators to fill men with booze and give the jails and policemen a chance to do business. On e¥ry side the scar: let woman flashes her colors, showing the effects of a wrong sexual code. Nearly everywhere you meet the |ing politician with the ready hand und a proclivity for boodle. Doctors and lawyers educate themselves so that they, too, can live off the fears, ig- norance and mistakes of people raised under a false system. If people lived right there would be no business for jails, saloons, churches, policemen, lawyers, and, except, in surgical cas- o8, no need of doctors. Lowery's Claim is published in New Denver, B.C., and has been issued ev- ery month for twenty-one times. It is the most truthful journal in Canada, and has been endorsed by thousands of people, some of whom are minis- ters. It has been condemned by thous- ands who are too bigoted to appreci- ate it, too ignorant to understand it, too crooked to read it without trem- bling. To the right thinking people its every issue has been like honey from Paradise. To wrong thinking people its every issue has been like senna with wormwood as a chaser. Ruthless as death, without even a polite ncte of warning, the noble and economical Mulock shoved the knife of exclusion into its honest heart, woundinr but not killing the most aggressive journ- al in all this great land of the OC.

When spoken to recently about his ailments he gladly gave the following «tatement of his case : "I suffered for a great many years from my kidneys and_ bladder, latterly that trouble had become serious and I would have to walk the floor for hours in agony before 1 could make any water, and then it would only come a drop at a time After it got started, though 1 would often have to get up many times during the night, and thus my rest was greatly disturbed. \ 2 The water 1 passed looked Mike blood, and 1 suffered great pain in the bladder. I tried all sorts of patent medicines and treatment from local doc- tors, but it did not seem to help me in the least. Some months ago I was recommended to try Dr. Pitcher's Backache-Kidney Tablets, and from the very first I found them doing me good. I have taken in all several bottles and I considef them the most wonderful kidney medicine made. I can now make my water freely and regularly without any straining or pain. I sleep well at night, as my rest is no longer disturbed. 1 consider the action of the remedy in my case, especially to be remarkable, as I am in my eighty-seventh year and have been affected a long time. Any one who wishes to know anything further about how Dr. Pitcher's Tablets have helped me, need only write me and I will be pleased to ans- wer them. (Signed) DAVID HUMBER WHAT MRS.
