According to the report of he Committee of the Royal J aâ€" naica Society of Agriculture and Bommerce and Merchants’ Exchange: "The natural conditions of the reâ€" lpective colonies are all in favor of nutual trade. Each country is the iatural complement of the other in iatural products, and it is high time that the feeling which has so long existed in favor of improved lrade relations should bear good re- volts." :The principal drawback to the interchange of commodities is the lack of a. rapid, up-to-date, fre- guent and direct steamboat service. [‘he direct trade between the two :ountries has largely increased since the advent of the Canadaâ€"Jamaica line from St. John, N. B., but this new service, although a. decided im‘ provement, is but a monthly one, :arried on in far from up-toâ€"date steamers, occupying from eight to ten days betWeen St. John and Kingston, Jamaica. i THE EXTENSION OF TRADE. In live stock and live stock proâ€" ducts is of particular interest to me, and in this connection I beg to submit a letter received from Mr. W. Simpson MacCormack, of King- Iton, Jamaica, dealing with the reâ€" ;uircments of their markets in these lines. Kingston, Jamaica, Sept. 4:, 1902. Dear Sinâ€"Your esteemed favor of [arch 4th last was duly received, ind I beg‘ to thank you for inform- ition contained therein. At this lime butchers’ sheep were too high, ind the season too bad to import. [ am now, however, in communicaâ€" lion with Messrs. Gordon and Iron- tides, of Montreal, and hope to get [own a carload. connected to Hali- ax, October boat. I note your remarks regarding the ligh quality of Canadian bacon, )utter, and cheese and the desire )f your department to establish a narket in these islands for these products. You also expressed the lope of hearing from me .“from time lo time, telling what the outlook ,is or the building up of the trade be- lween Canada and Jamaica." I would state that considerable at- lention is-now being directed to the luperiority' of Canadian products by importers here, but I regret to lay that Canadian producers ap- pear disinclined to bring themselves 'nto line of our markets, conditions is to size, packing and promptitude n filling orders and general exist- ng conditions. Buttonâ€"What is required is (1) :hoice creamery put up in one half, we and five pound tins, also in kegs )f about 34 lbs., costing about. 19 lo 23 cents per 1b. f.o.b.

A market Would also be found for picnics (shoulder .hams) from 5 to 10 lbs., andwhat are known as Bath Chops 3m 4.- lbs-., also have a demand. . Referring to the last two mention- ed articles there should not be the least difficulty in building up a di- rect trade, for I know as a. fact that ,quantities of the articles arrive here ffrom Bristol and other English lports rc-bagged and represented as of English manufacture, but which I have good reason for knowing owe mâ€"m I.‘am satisfied that tion, demand, and the importance WOULD BE A REVELATION.

I shall be glad to hear from you on this subject, and also on the genâ€" eral subjects of this letter. Pro- ducts and manufactures must always be quoted f.o.b. I think there should be hardly any difficulty in your finding some responsible pro- ducers to take up the matter. Again thanking you for your preâ€" vious communications, and hoping that this may lead to some practical results, I am, Yours truly, (Sgd.) W. Simpson MacCormack. A few planters interested in the improvement of live stock on the islands of Jamaica, St. Kitts and Trinidad, have imported pureâ€"bred horses, cattle, sheep, swine and poultry in limited numbers from NOVa. Scotia, but as these animals require to be acclimatized after their arrival in the Indies, many of them are lost. On this account buyers do not Care to pay very high prices, but they find that the imported anâ€" imals which survive acclimatization effect a. great improvement in their herds and flocks, and they declare that they Will persevere until the standard of lquality is greatly ele- vated. - Since 1897 some four or five horses, (Clydesdales), twentyâ€"five cattle (Shorthorns, Herefords and Ayrshires), wone hundred sheep (Shropshircs and Southdowns), and about oneâ€"half dozen pigs, (Berk- shires and Tamworths), have been sent to the West Indies bv the Nova Scotia. Government. These were all pureâ€"bred stock, but a, considerable amount of ordinary stock has been shipped. For the first 11 months of 1901, according to the reports of the steamboat agents, there were 95 horses, 30 cattle, 1,200 sheep, nine swine, and 125 coops of poultry shipped from'I-Ialifax to the West Indies. There is now fairly good steamboat accommodation from Halâ€" ifax, boats running twice a month regularly, and although this trade is yet only in its infancy, it would seem to. be capable of considerable development. _ According to the newSpapers, a. fast line of steamers between Canada and Jamaica is likely to be subsidized in the near future, which would no doubt great- ly increase trade between the, two colonies.

Cottel's Cove, New Bay, Newfoundâ€" land, Oct.’ 27-.â€"(Specia1.)-â€"This part of the island has been thoroughly aroused by the most miraculous cure of a. man named Joseph Boon. For eight years this man had been ailing and for seven years of this time he was unable to work. He had Back Ache and Kidney Complaint, in fact he was all pains and aches. He had been treated from time to time by several doctors and although he always carefully attended to their several prescriptions exactly as or- dered by them, he got no relief, but was slowly growing worse. Finally he wont to the hospital where he remained for seven months, only to be sent home as an incura- ble case. He has tried every remedy he could hear of, electric belts, liniments, oils and other medicines but all of no avail. No one ever thought he could ever be well again. However, one day he picked up a. newspaper containing an account of how Mr. Richard Quirk, of Fortune Harbor, had been cured of Lumbago by Dodd’s Kidney Pills. After read- ing this Mr. Boon made up his mind to try this remedy and at once be- gan a treatment. » - He used altogether twenty-one boxes before he Was able to go to work again, but now he is able to attend to his daily duties as strong and vigorous as any man along the coast. _ Mr. Boon is a. fisherman and is at present engaged at lobster fishing with no thought whatever of his old time Back Ache and other pains. The people here regard this cure as little short of miraculous. â€"â€"â€"¢ ONLY AFTER A GOOD MLEAL. A number of ladies began to disâ€" cuss the virtues oi their respective husbands, when every other topic was worn threadbare. “My husband," said one, “never drinks and noveriswears-indced, he has no bad habits." “Does he ever smoke ’2" asked. “Yes, he likes a cigar just after he has eaten a~ good meal. But I, supâ€" pose on an average he doesn’t smoke more than once a week.” Some 'of her friends laughed, she didn’t seem to understand. someone but 5â€"...” Nurses’ Experience, Medical men say that a. good nurse in a. difficult. case is better than me- dicine, but when we can get a good nurse and good'medicine, the pa- tient stands a. much better chance of recovery. VA few words (if advice given below by nurse Eliza King, are well worth the attention of all readers ': “I have constantly used St. Jaâ€" cobs Oil in the various situations I have occupied as nurse, and have inâ€" variably found it excellent in all cases requiring outward application, such as sprains, bruises, rheumatic affections, neuralgia, etc. In cases of pleurisy it is an excellent remedy â€"well rubbed in. I can strongly re- commend it. after several years' use and experience. It should be in ev- ery household." Sister Carolina, St. Andrew's Hospital, writes : "I have found St. Jacobs Oil a. most efficacious remâ€" edy in gout ; also in sprains and bruises. Indeed, we cannot say too much in its praise, and our doctor is ordering it. constantly." ...._...___4 A turtle was killed a few years ago on the Atlantic coast of South America which was 7 feet long.
