Detroit. News. A very large part of the gray matter of the Washington statesmen is suppos- ed to be expended in deéyising plans for the extension and increase of the foreign trade of this country, At least much of the eloquence on the floors of congress and of the reports made by the commit- tee deal with that subject. For some years past the great minds have been directing their attention to, Asia as the source of a vast foreign trade to be se- cured by arrangements to be made with China and Japan, which would greatly exceed that with India which made Great Britain so rich. There is a good deal of glamor about Asiatic trade. It fills the imagination more than the purse. A little consideration of details should convince a Stitdent of the subject that it is.not-all it is painted. In the first place, the inhabitants of Asia--especially the Indians, Chinese and Japanese--are mis- erably poor, and consume very little of the things our costly labor -produces. They canmot afford to pay for either our food or our manufactures, and they do not need them. Whatever they "may want of .aurs which they have not yet learned to make, they will not be long in learning. and when they have done so, they will be apt to sell to us rather than buy An illustration lies right at our door. We have been trading with the Asiatics since a considerable time before the revolution. We began trading with Can- ada only yesterday, so to speak. Yet to-day the six millions of Canada buy from us and sell to us more than twice as much as the whole eight hundred millions of Asia. We are not aware, either, that the Washington government sits, wp nights devising means of extend- ing our trade with:our immediate neigh- bors, but, on the contrary, throws all possible obstacles in the way of tariffs along the border to interrupt and em- barrassit. A neighbor's trade is always more valuable than that of people at a distance; for it costs less for transporta- tion. Canada's trade with the 'United Si 4, Omitting raw cotton from con sideration; is now ext -to that with Kingston.

ROUGHTON - District Agent | rors Great © Britain Before many years, should the present rate of increase be maintained, it will be the first in im- and amount. The Dominions trade has increased in the past ten years to $6126 from $257,168,862, or 138 per. cen $100 per head for every , woman and child, ancluding © Indians, in the country. With the same per capita our own foreign trade would be over cight billions, instead of .a little over three. It is evident to any rational mind that carefully considers the matter, that our future trade with the Dominion, as that country grows to greatness, will be] worth all our other foreign trade, for it will be greater in volume and more profitable. Wise statesnranship on both sides of the border should prepare for such possibility by removing the artifi cial barriers now along the borders in stéad of increasing them.

FH theSsurface of the earth. A mile down in the sea the water has a pressure of a square inch. If a box six was™ filled with sea water, ws then allowed to evaporate, there would be two inches Of salt loft in the bottoin of the box. Taking the average depth of 'the ocean to be three miles, there would be a layer of salt 440 feet thick covering. the bottom in case all the water should evaporate. In many places, especrally m the far north, the water imgezes from the bottom upward. Waves are depeptive things. To look at them one would gather the impression that the whole water travelled. This, however, is not so. The water stays in the same plaec, but the motion goes on. In great storms waves are sometimes forty feet high, and their crests travel fifty miles an hour; the base of a wave (the distance from valley to valley) is considered as being fifteen times the height of the wave. Therefore a Wave twenty-five feet high would have a base extending 375 feet. The force of waves breaking on the shore is seventeen tons to the square inch. mn cet at Where's Mother ?

There Are Physical Defects Among aa ok Them | No doubt public sentiment will be con- siderably stirred by the report which has Just been Tey relative to the physi- ¥ I'cal defects: of the schoal, children of the United States, more pasticularly in the, Capada we are prob- ably of opinion that no similar condition, of affairs exists, due to the high avers; age of living which exists among us, : and yet in coming to any such conclusion we would be assuming too much. There are physicals defects among children of the well-to-do," as well as of the poor, which mtecfere with the progress edu- cationally af those so afflicted, and there are thousands of cases where children are backward and dull: who could made perfectly normal by just a little attention to ailments of which parents are ignorant. The New York Evening Post places in evidence a few facts and figures. In New York, in 1006, some 78.401 children were examined. Among them were 20,177 cases of enlarged anterior. glands, 1,000 cases of cardiac diseases; 17.028 ot defective vision; 39.397 of neglected teeth; 18,306 of hypertrophied tonsils. The total number found to require medi- cal treatment was 56,250, or about 72 pesscent. of those examined. Moreover, the great' majority. of these children who suffered from physical disability were backward in studics--irom one 10 five years behind the grade in which their age would naturally plage them. The stasistics for New York, The Post says, cannot be very far different from those for Boston, Philadelphia and Chi- cago. Arguing! from the admitted facts The Post says: \ Evidently this is a serious business for educators. We are fully committed to generous maintenance of public schools. The general diffusion of intelligence is-- we are fond of saying on: Fourth of July --the very cornerstone of this republic. As a logical extension of principle of public education, many cities and towns now.farnish text-books free. To con- serve the physical welfare of the chil- dren is a step in the same direction, hut not a longer one. Physical defects, the experts assure us, are the real troubles in most cases which we inaccurately call stupidity, inattention, indifference to study, ill-temper, sullenness, malicions disobedience, and truancy. What the child who fails to keep up, who drops out. and takes to the strects and to crime--what he often needs is not extra v orthe discipline of a reformatory, but glasses to correct astigmatism, the re moval of adenoids, or the services of a dentist. That he may obtain such medi cal attendance, it is neither necessary nor desirable to 'incur the heavy ex pense of enlarging our hospitals and dis pensaries and increasing their staffs.

Gorst., That gentleman has been particularly active 1m looking after children whe are underfed of improperly fed, but he has displayed almost equal interest in all the problems of children, including juvenile ailments, child labor, etc. Among the children's ailments found most prevalent in_the schools are diseased glands, including "adenoids," which is an enlargement of the glandu- lar tissue at the back of the nose. Some children are born with it. It is preva- lent in all classes of society, rich as well as poor. It produces mouth breathing, with all tits attendant evils, contracted chest and stunted growth. It is a very common cause of deafness, and is easily removed. Tubercle is a deadly and dan- gerous disease, very common amongst neglected, ill-nourished children. In is carly stages, and especially in a. child patient, it is now considered to be almost always curable. 'There are probably few schools in which there are not children suffering from. this terrible disease, un- suspected by parents or teachers, but capable of certain detection by a medical expert. A diseased condition © the heart is very commonly found amongst young childgen in the schools. Taken in time and treated while the organs of 'the body are still capable of vigorous growth, it is in some cases curable, but it is an ailment that neither parent nor teacher is likely to discover; it requires the examination of an expert, Children who are suffering from any affection of the heart are quite unfit to go through the ordinary physical exercises of the school. If there were no other ground on which to requiré medical inspection for school children, the absoluté neces- sity for children to pass the doctor be- fore being allowed to perform some of the physical exercises prescribed in the school course would of itself furnish one. + Rickets is also a disease very pre-J valent anfong children. Dr. Hall, 'in Leeds, found so per cent. of the children in a poor Gentile school suffering from rickets; in a poor Jewish school 7 per cent., and in the good schools, frequent- ed by the children of -well-to-do-artizans, 8 per cent. During the year 1903, at the Manchester hospital, oor infants and young children were admitted as out- patients suffering from rickets in the early stages, and in addition to them 539, mostly children over: 3 of 4 years of age, were admitted for various de- formities, such as knack-knees and bow- legs, the result of rickets. 1f these rick- ety children "are picked out by medical inspection when they first come to school a great number of them could be cured of the mischief done to them in the early years of life, and would grow up healthy men and women. : Defective vision, defective hearing and defective teeth are among the more prevalent diseases which inspection serves to cure. The British Dental As- sociation made, a short time ago, an investigation _ into the teeth of school children. It had an examination made of the teeth of upwards of 10.000 school children, and found amongst them only 1,508 sets free 'from decay, or 14.2 per upwards of 37.000 Williams: ink Pills will estore Joss | their foot at all. streng yecause they actually make a 2 on sb Ei a hy will help you.
