Could Not Feel Better From a nervous wreck this man was restored fo health, strength and happiness. He tells his own story in this letter. Mr. Ralph A. Roberts, Loverna, Sask., writes: "In 1917 I had lost all appetite, failed 25 pounds in weight, become very nervous and shaky and in fact given up all hope of recovery. For some time I had suffered from consti- pation, which kept getting worse, until I was fast becoming a total wreck. Doctors and their drugs were sending me to my grave at the age of 39, "Then 1 read about people being restored by Dr. Chase's Medicines and after three months' use of Dr. Chase's Nerve Food and Kidney-Liver Pills I found that my bowels were restored to normal movement cach day and the constipation was no more. I had a good appetite, had gained 20 pounds and could not feel better. I shall always be grateful for these benefits." ; Dr. Chase's Nerve Food, 50c a box; Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills, 25¢ a box, all dealers or Edmanson, Bates & Co., Lid., Toronto, . N. U. 140% | expenditures? occasional pressions and failures. It was the foresight and determina- tion of 'men who spent money when there seemed to be no money to spend which resulted in the network of railroads opening up these western provinces. The pessimists of fifty years age said that the C.P.R. could never pay. Grave faults there may have been in the policies and prac- crop tices of some of the railroad builders but their courage, or recklessness, as some of their contemporaries termed it, had its justification in the rapid development of the prairie provinces. Where would we reduce the public In Manitoba the pub- lic health nurses cost the province and the municipalities a considerable sum, but where is the man knows the work these efficient women are doing in the rural districts who would re- duce expenses in These nurses are performing a great service to the province, especially in preventing the spread of infectious diseases. The establishment of pub- lic health stations was a long step in the right direction and one we do not wish to retrace. The province of Manitoba has a particularly enlightened policy in re- gard to the insane which costs a large sum every year. Only a few years ago any mentally diseased person was committed to the common gaol before being sent to the asylum. Insanity was freated as a crime, instead of be- ing considered a disease. Now the psychopathic department of the hos- pital does wonderful work in the reatment of cases where recovery is possible and the institution at Sel- kirk is no longer an asylum but a hospital for mental diseases. This improvement has cost money, but it is worth it. : Money must be spent, too, on our schools. The school is the most pow- erful agency at work to make Cana- dians of the children of the foreign districts. To have good schools we must have good teachers, and to have good teachers we must pay salaries which will attract young men and wo- men of ability. For years teachers must have taught for love of human- ity for the financial rewards were ex ceedingly small. Teachers' salaries were among the last to rise te keep pace with the high cost of living. Now that at last a fair and reasonable salary schedule has been established the requirements for certificates are being increased, and more efficient work is being done. Surely no one would save a nickle here or a dime there by reducing the salaries of the teachers because we have had one bad year. Good roads are of the greatest pos- sible value in the rural districts, but good roads, like everything good, are expensive. But because of a tem- porary difficulty in securing the money shall we let our roads get in bad condition, inconveniencing our- selves, causing a loss of time and money to many, and giving our dis- trict a bad name among tourists and travellers. 'We must have faith in the future. We must dare to advance. Stand- ards so lately raised in public health, education and transportation must not be lowered because of a tempor- ary financial stringency. Wise and courageous expenditure - is the only true economy. RR Britain Again Leads World in Shipbuilding Statement Issued by U.S. Bureau of Navigation Great Britain has recaptured the leadership of the world in shipbuild- ing. A statement from Lloyd's Reg- ister of Shipping, which has just been issued by the U.S. Bureau of Naviga- tion, shows the launchings of vessels of 100 gross tons and over in the ship- yards of the world during 1921. The United Kingdom leads with 1,638,052 tons, while the United States has 1,006,413 tons. The British lead of 531,000 tons compares with a lead of 2,454,000 which the United States had in 1919, and a 420,000 ton lead for the United States in 1920. Canada Following Great Britain The London Grocers' Gazette for January 8 states thatthe consumption of tea in Great Britain and Ireland has increased 34 per cent. since 1913. They now use about nine pounds per head in the United Kingdom, and the increase in 1921 over the previous year amounted to 17 million pounds. This enormous consumption accounts for the great rise in the price of tea. The consumption of tea in Canada only amounts to 41% pounds per head per annum, but it is increasing. Canadian Cloth Equals Imported Strong emphasis on the fact cloth equalling that imported from Great Britain can be made in Canada if only {the tailors and customers will create a proper demand, was made at the convention held in Toronto recently. Not only can the imported cloths be equalled in quality, but it was assert ed the ranges of patterns could bel made as numerous. that department?! 110,000,000 A.D. great uplift | Is Mars Inhabited 7 Planet Wiil Come Comparatively Close to the Earth in 1924 In 1924, Mars is to be only 25,000, 000 miles from the earth. This dis tance, occurring every 15 years, is but a stone's throw in celestial spaces. The other extreme in the orbit of Mars is 284,000,000 miles. Naturally astronomers are all agog to make the most of the opportunity of the neigh- borly proximity about to be attained. The sight of the telescope is far keen- er than at the last Martian approxi- mation in 1909. Wireless iustru- ments of astonishing experimental possibilities have been developed in the intervening period. All present evidences of the habitation of Mars are easily subject to disbelief. Elab- orate speculations are built out of the deduction that Mars is a much older planet than the earth. The hypoth- etical Martian, it is conjectured, may have lived long enough to be as far advanced as man would be at about On the other hand, many astronomers consider that the Martian atmosphere is too thin to support life.

Science and Rural Life Benefits of Scientific Achievements Should be More Fully Applied Science has proved itself a great friend of mankind. Every depart ment of civilization has been more or less benefited as the results of scien- tific experiment have been applied. Rural life has been perhaps slowest of all to reap the advantages of scien- tific knowledge. This was not be- cause of lack of opportunity or need, but probably because the rural raind is naturally conservative and cautious about innovations. most of the addresses on rural prob- lems today is the wider application of science to all phases of rural life --farm and home both. This is im- portant. Agriculture is first in time as an industry and first in order of importance. Civilization will get a and human progress a great impetus forward when rural life fully applies as it may the bene- fits of scientific achievements. It will result in better farming methods, accompanied by greater prestige and respect for the whole profession. It will benefit the farm home and make life vastly more attractive and agree- able there than it has ever been. Some homes today are quite model in reference to these standards, but the majority are lacking. "Science" is used in the broadest sense as touch- ing every phase of home and outdoor life. Surveys show that very many homes have failed to relate them- selves with the most common ad- vantages such as lighting, power, bath rooms and ventilation. These improvements ought to come faster than they have, and until they do farm life will not be as attractive as it deserves to be.--Manitoba Free Press.

The keynote of} Has Lonely Job Bird Lover Spends Time in Hut on Shetiand Islands Probably the loneliest occupation in Great Britain is that of Harry REd- wardson, who every spring goes out to an isolated hut on the island of Hermaness, north of the Shetlands. He is the watcher of the birds un- der the Royal Society for the pro- tection of Birds. For fifteen years he has filled the post for the society, staying in the hut, which faces the wild Atlantic, from spring until autumn, but altogether he has been keeping his annual vigil for 33 years. In his tiny shanty, the watcher has done admirable work in prevent- ing the destruction of bird life by skin hunters and egg collectors. "Name Nobs" Vanity costs New Yorkers millions 2 year yet the queerest slant on this all too human trait was revealed to me by a head waiter. He picks up many $10 bills from what he calls "name nobs." Men who have never been to his cafe call around and pre- sent themselves before the evening dinner. They slip the head waiter a $10 bill to call them by name when they enter with their party.--New York Correspondent.
