VIIUS DANCE ‘It is Most Common Among Chil- dren of the School Age If your childâ€"whether boy or girl -â€"-i:. fidgetty, emotional and awk- Ward, you should watch it care- fully as it may develop St. Vitus dance. Frequently children can- not keep still, they move wrth strange actions, their limbs jerk and their features twitch nervous- ly. Speech is confused and .the whole muscular system not under control. These are among the symptoms of St. Vitus dance, a trouble that afflicts growing girls and boys, most frequently during the school age. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills are such a splendid nerve tonic that they have cured the worst cases of St. Vitus dance. They do this because the new, rich blood they make feeds and strengâ€" thens the starved nerves,’ thus throwing off the disease. Here is an example. Mrs. L. L. Gifford, Westover, Ont., says: “For over two years my little flrvaonstance, - was a sufferer from St. itus dance. She was frightened badly by a trouble, and notwithstanding all we did for her it seemed to he grow- ing worse. She grew so bad that she could not feed herself and her speech was so badly affected that ‘We could scarcely understand her. The twitching and jerking of her limbs wastpitiable. At this junc- ture we began giving her-Dr. Wil- liams’ Pink Pills, and to our great by they have completely cured er, and she is now as healthy 3. child as you can find.” Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills are sold by all medicine dealers or sent by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams’ Medicine 00., Brockville, Ont. ‘1‘ SLEEPING A DISEASE. ~â€" Exccssivc Somnolcnoe Is So Ex- plained By a Doctor. An attempt to explain the exces- 've somnolenvce of Pickwick’s fat oy is made by Dr. Frederick Tayâ€" lor, F.R.C.P., in an interesting article on sleepiness in “Practi- tioner.” . ' Dr. Taylor is sympathetic to- }wards those with whom sleep is an affliction, and he thinks that the fat boy may possibly have suffered from some mysterious disease. “There is‘no evidence that he was overworked mentally or physi- cal-1y,” adds Dr. Taylor. He cites the case of a prisoner rwho, when charged with sleeping in jhe roadway, went to sleep in the dock ; tells of a housemaid who "went to sleep in the act of announc- ' .g a visitor, angd while carrying a ay with cups full of coffee; and mentions a woman “who was a nurse, till“ in one of her sleeping lpamoxysms, she dropped the baby ,On the floor and nearly killed it.’ ’ “There are also on record other cases of a somewhat different kin ," says Dr. Taylor, “in which labs individual sleeps continuously {for hours, days and months; some let these are described as narco- tically the ideal liniment. on is absorbed quickly, sinks through the pores to the congested muscles, eases, relieves and cures quickly.

Vanderbilt. the Duchess of Marlborough is’building ' up a reputation as an enthusiastic dog fancier. At one time the Duchess ignored the dog craze and it was a matter of common talk that she was prac- the only .woman in the “smart set” circle who did not pos- sess a dog of some class among her household pets. Now she appears to be falling into line with her friends and is paying fancy prices for bulldog breeds and water span- iels. Her experiences have not been up to the present entirely favor- Duchcss of Marlborough. able, for a fewdays ago a valuable animal which was being consigned to her from Ireland got suffocated on the journey, and as the con- signment was at owner’s risk the loss will mean something in the neighborhood of $5,000. Next year the Duchess hopes to join the ranks of the societv women who have been 'for a number of conspicuous Kennel years an active and element in the Ladies’ Club.

Menâ€"Workmen's Compem satlonâ€"Passing of James Young. Always delighting in life in dramatic situations, the spirit of the late Beattle Nesbltt must have found some satisfac- tion in the chain of circumstances which a climax in his death. In the court room his lawyers pleading for the quaehlng.of the indictments against him; at his bedside his doctors struggling to retain the breath of life. The lawyers gained their point; but one short hour later Beattle Nesbltt was dead. Beattle Nusbltt’s hero” ln’ history was Napoleon. His living rooms were filled with pictures and books pertaining to_ the Emperor, and it is said that he do- voured every line ' of Napoleon litera- ture he cond find. No doubt this fact explains why Nesbitt’s life was in some striking respects (not excluding the mis- ery of later years) an imitation of Na~ poleon‘s. - Nesbitt was an organizer. He had the restless energy and Imagination of the promoter. He was resourceful. But it is hardly correct to say that he was either a ver strong or a very great man. He had t e heart to resolve and the head to contrive but he rarely had the hand to execute. Organized Ward Assoelatlons. He has left his mark on the political life of Toronto. The Conservative Ward Associations as they exist to-day are a monument to his work. They are ex- ceedingly influential and effective in their organization, a fact for which Ncsbitt must be thanked. His original idea, It is said, was to introduce an organization that would be as effective as Tammany, but in this he was thwarted by what is known as the silk«stocking element in the party. However, he had no trouble in being elected to the Legislature, where he could have held his seat as long as he“ wanted to. There was some disappoint- ment among his friends when he was not. taken into the Whitney Cabinet which .was organized in 1905, and it was not long afterward that he retired from the Leg- islature to accept the Registrarship. This was the Elba of his career. He made his last plunge into politics by running for the Mayor's Chair, but he could not carry the Conservative party with him, and he was defeated. At that time he was President of the Farmers’ Bank, and it has been ‘eaid in explanation of his ac- tion in running for the Mayoralty that his desire was to bring prestige to the Bank. He calculated that as Mayor of Toronto he could have got in England or elsewhere all the capital necessary for the new institution. lepsy, and they seem to present al- .

Heretofore the position of ship's surgeon has been monopolized by men, but all doubt as to the eligiâ€" bility of women for the pcsition has been set at rest by a Scottish steamship company. The company had a steamer on the Clyde ready to sail for Aus- tralia with a large number of pasâ€" sengers, including emigrants, on board. All that kept it from lea-v- ing was the lack of a surgeon. A qualified woman doctor, the daughter of a. marine engineer, heard of the difficulty and offered her services. The board of trade oflicer who had to certify the ship looked up all precedents, and, al- though he found that no womam had ever before been signed on as to were doing for other children, ‘ decided to try them for my by, who was suffering from con- stipation and stomach trouble. {they worked, like a charm and 'ow I always keep them in the ouse and recommend them to all my friends.” Baby’s Own Tablets cure constipatibn and indigestion; they expel worms, break up colds and alloy simple fever and. make dteething easy.

Mr. Emmcrson, nlne belong to Toronto. Two of them, of course, are Slr William Mackenzie and Sir Donald Mann, the twins of the Canadian Northern Railway system, who have spent. their lives In cot- ting public utility franchises of one sort. and another all over the world, turning them into going concerns and making tremendous profits in the process. .It is at present. impossible to compute how much these two men are worth. No doubt tlleycould not do so themselves. It is generally admitted, however. that their biggest coup has yet to come when they will ut on the market the stock of the O. . R. corporation. This trans- continental liuc, now running into its thousands of miles of truckuge. ha been built. entirely by the sale of bonds, the stock remaining in the control of Mac- kenzie and Mann personally. One of these days this will have a value when it will be put on the market, and the re- turn to Mackenzie and Mann may be suf- ficient to put themdn a list of a dozen of the wealthiest men in the world. The G. N. R. Group. Of the others named in the list, Mr. Z. A. Lash, Mr. D. B. llanna, Mr. Freder- ick Nicholle and Sir Henry Pellntt are more or less intimately associated with Mackenzie and Mann corporations. Mr. Lash is undoubtedly the nblest Corpora- tion Counsel in Canada. Mr. D. B. Hanna is Vice-President of the O. N. R. and the active force in its direct management. Sir Henry Pellatt and Frederick Nicholle are interested in many industrial under- takings. A few years ago Sir Henry Pellatt realized over a million dollars in .cold cash from his sale of the control of the Toronto Electric Light Co. 119 im- mediately proceeded to put a large por- tion of this amount into a residence on the hill, now nearing completion, which is a. marvel to all beholders. Sir Edmund Osler and Mr. W. D. Mat- thews are, Toronto‘s representatives among the Canadian Pacific ltailway's group of financiers. while the ninth man on the list, Senator George A. Cox. is closely associated with the Grand Trunk Pacific enterprises. While not competing in the spectacular achievements of Sir William Mackenzie and Sir Donald Mann, Senator Cox is in many. respects one of the shrewdest financiers in Toronto or in the country.

There promises to be a hitch in the Workmen’s Compensation legislation, due this session, over the question of whether clerks in stores and farm laborers are to be included in the provisions of ‘the Act. The general principle in modern Workmen’s Compensation legislation is that a' fund is established to which em- ployers of labor contribute, and out of this fund damages are paid to workmen whenever accidents occur. Industries are graded according to the hazard, so that the employers in hazardous occupations have to pay more than those in less haz- ardous occupations. The workmen them. selves contribute nothing and the fund is administered by the State. Theoretically, legislation of this kind should apply to everybody but it is feared that re resentativee of rural con- stituencies wil object if farm laborers and store clerks are included. There Is, therefore, a possibility that these classes will be dropped in the legislation which is -to be recommended by Sir William Meredith, the special commissioner, who has been investigating the subject, and that the labor unions which have been agi- tating for the Act will not object, fearing that if they did so they would Jeopardize their chances of getting any legisla. tion. This will probably be the‘most import- ant piece of general legislation to come before the House this session.
