By the exchange sof the new conditions for the old we have gained much. We have lost the romance which associates itseli: with the sea--whether fresh or salt water: weghave lost the picturesqueness of a {harbor dotted with ves that swing |.Jazily. at their anchors; of the docks | that swarmed with bronzed and black- | ened sailors busily intent upon cele or oc brating a few days on shore, cupied in preparing to again battle | with the waves; of the merry bustle consequent-upon- the constant coming and going of vessels--but we gain infinitely in material things, in the substitution of the railway 'for the old schooner and stéamer. Modern busi ness knows no sentiment, and any' means of facilitating trade is eagerly adcpted, It is not alone the decad- ence of the old Lake Ontario marine but the old conditions which support ed that marine are gone. The lumber trade, once one pf the main support- of the schooner, has dwindled down. the coal trade has been diverted to the railivays, except for a comparatively smail portion which still goes by wa- ter. The grain trade, in which so many of the old vessels were engaged, has also been diverted to the railways, and. with the exception of ore, t is little left for vessels' to carrv. Time freight rate grain 2c. per bushel was when the on from Kingston was now the railways are paid 2ic. to de And yet, with the growth the ca pacity of vesselé, a rate of ! would pay, for to-day a steamer can carn in one cargo what it would take one of the old schooners about eight trips to transport. This also has been a powerful influence decreasing the number of vessels in the freight traffic of the lakes. There is at the present moment building in Lorraine, Ohio, a monster vessel with a capacity of 10. 000 tons, but this is much tog a vessel 10 pass any canal, and i twill be confined to Lake Erie and the ports around the southern shore on the Jake. The Strathcona, engaged in Superior for w carrving ore from Lake the blast furnace, carried 3.000 No comment the increasing <a pacity of like vessels is necessary when it is said that a pobd load for an old vas 500 tons.

Just imagine what would happen to a building if the contractor, thinking to improve its looks, left out the mortar and cement. This is what the miller does when he makes white flour--he leaves out very essential elements in the building of the 'human body, for the sake of making his product please the eye. The golden outer coating of the wheat would spoil the spotless whiteness of _ the flour, so they throw it out and with it the nitrates and phosphates which build muscle and brain, and leave practically nothing but the fat- and heat-producing starch. ; : When you eat SHREDDED WHOLE WHEAT The Natural Foods you get the whole of the wheat--every element that the body and brain need for thorough nourishment. "Each Shredded Whole Wheat Biscuit contains over seven hundred inches of individual shreds, which are rendered light and porous by the process of shredding. The pores readily receive the saliva i during the process of mastication, and in the second step of digestion the porous shreds are quickly i saturated with the gastri¢ juices of the stomach. : Thus digestion is attended with natural results.
