HANLEY, Cu Bs KIRKPATRICK, Ticket Agents, for Insure Them Good Bealth, Ninety per cent. of children, under twelve years of age, are being poisoned and parents don't realize it. Irregular bowels are the chief cause. You parents know that your bowels should move every day. You know you must be as regular 2s clock-work, or the blood will become tainted. Don't you realize that the children must be as orderly in getting. rid of the waste matter of their system? Then, if you find that any of the fittle ones go two or three days with- out action of the bowels, don't rup to castor oil, senna tea, calomel, cascara or harsh "liver pills." Those simply purge the child--strain the bowels. "Prujt-a-tives" are the ideal medi- eine for children. They are fruit juices and tonics in the form of a pleasant tasting tablet. "Pruit-a- tives" stimulate the liver, causing more, bile to flow. It 1s the bile, given up by the liver, which moves the bowels. "Fruit-a-tives" regulate the liver and bowels, and thus com- pletely cure constipation. They sweeten the stomach, and are the fin- est tonic in the world to build up the system and make children plump and rosy: 60c a box--six for $2.50.

The Toil Tells Hardly on the Esquimaux - Canines--Some of Characteristies of Dogs. i Until the coming of the Americans the leaders in Esquman dog teams were unknown in the Arctics. The trail was generally broken by. an = dian or Esquimau Woman ru ahead of the team, her ting mukisks --which are high bdots made of the skin of the hair seal or the reindeer-- pounding through the snow, while her liege lord snuggled in the sledge's fur-lined bed. ' Pew pure malamutes (native dogs descended from. the Siberian wolf) are now employed in the mail service. Their legs .are too short, their feet sink too readily through the snow. Preference is given to a cross between the malamute or McKenzie husky, St. Bernard or Newfoundland with a lit- tle hound. The Esquimau begins to train his dog for sledge work before it is a month old. One of the most interest- ing. features of Esquimau villages are puppies tied to the pole of a tent. They pull on the rope with all their puppy strength in the effort to break away and join the frolics df their el- ders. Not until a dog bred for mail ser- vice is one year old is it put in train ing for the trail. It begins by run- ning ten miles with the team, then it is dropped out. Next day it runs the samg distance. Gradually the dis- tance is increased until it reaches its fifteenth mouth of life, when it becomes part of the regular service. The life of a mail dog is from three to four years. No greater punishment can be inflicted than to lay a dog off from service, When unruly they are often threatened with a layoff, and with almost human intelligence they seem to understand the disgrace it implies to the eyes of their fellow- workers on the trail. All fight to be leaders. Some dogs are better trail followers than others, as some are better lead- ers. In a blizzard the best of them loge the trail, but invariably find it. When on the trail they eat but once a day, then at the end of the iqurney. After feeding like weary children, they fall asleep and are never quarrelsome; it takes on an average 20 ponuds of food a day for a team of eleven dogs on a hard route. oH The dogs of the mail teams consumy ed last year three toms. of bacon an one ton of rice. The rice and bacon are cooked together with frozen fish and eaten hot. The dogs are permit- ted to eat all they want. When too hot they cool it in the gnow. If near the sea or a river they will cunningly pull the vessel out on the ice and test the tempgrature of the contents with their long tongues until the mess can be eaten without burning the mouth. Frozen fish is the staple food of: the native dog. ,CANADA'S LABOR LAWS. Pan-Anglican Conference Applauded Mr. N. W. Hoyles, K.C. At the Pan-Anglican Congress when the question of capital and labor came up for discussion, under the presi- dency of the Bishop of Columbia, Mr, N. W. Hoyles, K.C., told his hearers how far Canada had gone on the labor question, and won rounds of applause when he declared that the state should no longer be content to act as a trustworthy policeman and keep the ring while the various contestants struggled and strove therein, The Labor Department was respons- ible for deciding what were in any riven place or circumstance fair wages, and conciliation boards, about which public opinion played freely, had proved entirely successful in'pre- venting serious labor disputes, but the evils of unemployment were grow= ing, and the, recent practice of de- spatching unfit English emigrants in large numbers was adding to it. Canon Walter Williams, New Zea- land, said he came home to find "friends among the laity turned pro- tectionists and his friends among the clergy become Socialists." The So- cialism of the younger clergy seems especially marked. They loudly ap- plaud every proposition which makes for state control, municipal enterprise and Socialist ideals. The Bishop of Columbia, summing up the discussion on capitalism, said that the Canadian method of investi. gating and fixing wages before the letting of a contract was most valu- able and a new departure. It was worthy of consideration whether any trade ought to be allowed to continue that did not provide a livir for its workers. We were being held back, he said, beeause people would not re- tain a calm judgment in dealing with social problems. The mere mention of Socialism frightened many persons. If the other man's remedies seemed to be those of the quack, was there not an injunction to suffer fools gladly? ---------------------------- Truthful and Ingenious. Among camp stories at Easter-time, says the Australasian, was one brought from London by an "ex- change' officer, and it concerned a Canadian colonel "of militia, who went to. England after distinguished service in the South African war. He and ocher officers dined at a Guards' mess, and naturally the talk turned for a while on the: value of a militia in countries with little or no perman- ent soldiery. How could officers spare the time?--was one question. The Canadian named their professions ; re- Jated how they stole certain after noons from business, merchants leav- ing their counting-houses, teachers their schools, and so of. A moment came when everybody Jooked at Col. Blank. What did he do in business hours, and how did he manage to get away? Now, have I mentioned that Blank was not only. a good soldier, but also a thriving undertaker? . Well, he was. You see his dilenss. The undertaker is 8 useful and gen- erally sympathetie member of 80- ciety, but for all his pride in his calling, he would never be able to commend it to the Grenadier Guards. So the colonel (weakly, if you like) hesitated, boggled a little. Buddenly inspiration came. "[--] follow the medical profes- | sion," he said truthfully. wo ------ THE DAILY BRITISH WHIG, MONDAY, J IULY 6, AS LANDLORD AND HOST. King Edward Is Thoughtful and Tries to Make Everybody Happy.

Plain evel ing dr is rigueur at Sandring- ham, w! the frock dress is never worn. The King wears the ribbon of the Garter on festive occasions, how- ever. At the conclusion of the enter- tainment the royal procession: is again formed, and the way is led to the sup- per room, where no formality 'is ob- served. The King goes about among the guests, seeing that they are hav. ing supper and enjoying Ives. A few specially favored ones he takes up to the Queen, who chats for a minute or two with each. His Ma- jesty is the life and soul of the party on these.sccasions; and nothing can exceed his amiability and good spirits. All the cups, pieces of plate and such trophies won at races and regat- tas by the King are at Sandringham, and the King takes great pride in ex: hibiting them. Sandringham is quite a modern house, and was built by the King when Prince of Wales 37 years ago. Above the entrance is carved : "This house was built by Al- bert Edward, Prince of Wales, and Alexandra, his wife, in the year of our Lord 1870." It is in the modern Elizabethan style, with no particular pretensions architecturally. The grounds are well laid out, and there is a model dairy, where the Queen apd Princess Victoria often take tea. Lessons For Mothers. "There are mothers in all classes of the community who should be asham- ed to look a tabby cat in the face." This sweeping statement was made by Dr. C. W. Saleeby, ing re- cently on the subject of "The Human Mother" at.the' conference on infan- tile mortality, res at Caxton Hall, Westminster. The human mother, he said, had the matérnal instinct only in its es- sence, but of all details she was be- reft. Instead she had intelligence-- an immeasurably. greater thing--but, whilst intelligence could learn every- thing, it had everything to learn. . The mother cat not merely had a far less helpless infant to suecour, Dr. Saleéby went on. but she had a far superior instinctive equipment. Bhe knew the best food for her kitten, and did not give it "the same as we had ourselves." | He advocated a school for mothers as a far more potent influence towards the decrease of infantile mortality than such devices as the ereche and the pure milk depot. Mrs. Edwin Grey of York said she would like men to raise their ideal of what they wanted of a wife. A man should ask his fiancee to attend a four months' course at a domesiic economy school. Commenting on a man's want of care in choosing a wife; Mrs. Carl Meyer remarked that-it compared un- favorably with the care he exercised in selecting a chauffeur or a stud groom. Just to Punish Him. Not very long agojthere lived near Halifax, Eng., an old man who ak ways rode on a donkey to his daily work, and tethered him while he lab- ored on the roads or wherever 'else he might be. Tt had been pretty plain: ly hinted to him by one of the local landowners that he was s of putting it in the fields to graze at other people's expense. "Eh, squoire, Aw cudna do, sich a thing, fer my donkey wean't ait" (eat) "owt bud nettles an' thistles." One day the gentleman 5 riding along the road, when he saw the old fellow at work and the donkey up to its knees in one of his clover fields, feeding luxuriously. "Halloa, John I" said he, "I under- stood you to say your donkey would eat nothing but nettles and thistles?* "Aye," said John, "but he's bin misbehavin® hissen, sir. He nearly kicked me i' the chest just now, soa Aw put him theer to punish him I" Police Methods In India. A jewel was lost by a rich Komati. Tt was found in the possession of a Mohammedan. Two policemen of the station seized it from him and pledg- ed it and 'obtained a loan from a local merchant. Then another police- man was asked to search the house of the merchant, and before the search' was effected the merchant gave it to him with a present as a bribe not to haul him up before the court. Between the three policemen a sum of about 60 rupees was looted from one or the other of the dishonest and avaricious merchants. Then arose a split among the policemen and their comrades about the division of the spoils, and they are now blinking as to what course to 'and whom to charge and what of to' charge with. The people are losing all con- fidence in_these men.--From the My- sore Stan lard L . -------------------- C. A.

His astrono- mical elocks ;are no less remarkable for their mechanical ingenuity than for their scientific value. Swindlers In London. Many American and continental de- tectives have arrived in London to watch the gangs of cosmopolitan thieves and swindlers who will exer- cise their skill and daring upon the great crowds of visitors from all over the world who are-eeming to the Franco-British Exhibition. These gangs are for the most part composed of the aristocrats of the criminal world, men and women dressed in the height of fashion, able to speak Fng- lish, French, and' German fluently. of charming manners, and well supplied with money. They will stop at the best hotels, and endeavor to prey upon their fellow guests or become acquainted with wealthy strangers in the grounds of the exhibition, and will reap a rich harvest by theft or some elaborate variation of the confi- dence trick. "Many of the members ,.of these gangs are well known to us," said a French detective who will re- main at Shepherd's: Bush. until the end of the exhibition to a newsppaer representative. "They have known to us for years, and we have been certzin that they have been guilty of extensive robberies, but we have not been able to conviet the ma- jority, of them. The reason is that, with "their great cleverness, they choose people of position as their vie- tims, and the deluded ones are gen- erally unwilling to expose their cre- dulity and "teo often fatuity for the amusement of the public." The authorities of Scotland Yard have made all their arrangements, and a large number of officers will be on duty at the exhibition. Each de- tective will play a part, one being a guileless old country gemtleman; an- other an assistant at a stall, and so on. When a noted crook is seen in- gratiating 'himself with a stranger a detective in the vicinity will be keep- tng his eyes and ears open. An in- teresting innovation is the engage- ment of a large number of lady thief- catchers, whose special duty it will be to keep a sharp watch on mem- bers of their own sex. It is well known that many of the most expert pocket-pickers are women, and they are also adepts at recognizing the male detective, in spite of any dis- guise which may be assumed; but it is hoped that the female Sherlock Holmes will merge her identity more successfully. The Lass For Him. A Scotchman, wishing to know his fate at once, telegraphed a pi of matriage to the lady of his choice.
