DEVELOPMENT ALLEADY RAPID. This year the poultry trade with Great Britain has developed as it mever has before. As early as the middle of last mouth "one firm has sent to England a shipment of Can adrian chickens which is five times larger than all shipments sent before from this country in any previous entire year. Next year there will be a demand for chickens unheard of before.

"Up to the age of fourteen years." said Mrs. Althouse, "my daughter Hattie had always enjoved the best ot health.

At this juncture she had occasional fainting fits, add any fright, as from a sudden noise, would bring slight attacks of hys- teria.

It was while Hattie was in this condi tion that I read an account of a girl cured of a similar ailment through the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. .

We cannot do better than quote The Globe on this point. It says: "To the electors of West Durham it does not make a particle of dif- ference how the deposit was made. Everybodyknew whothe candidates were, and the form in which the money was tendered was of no more importance than the color of the candidates hair. Our own opinion would have been that the defect was cured by the acceptance of the cheque and thegiving of the receipt.

Toronto Telegram; -- It was poor business of the Globe to embitter the hour of "Sir Charles Tupper's departure from public life by the publication ot petty. snarling inter views with alleged Toronto Liberals. Surely the men of light and leading in Toronto Liberalism can speak in words broader and nobler than the rant of the gentlemen who air their opinions of Sir Charles Tupper in the Globe. Sir Charles Tupper may have lost his constituency, but his fame is secure, and in size is far above the partisans who jeer at him. Since the announcement of the retirement of Sir Charles Tupper from the Conservative leadership, politicians of all stripes have been busy choosing a new leader. Nearly every member of the Couservative party in Ontario is mentioned for the position, but it is safe to say that no hasty action will be taken. Some time in the future a meeting will be held and a complete reor- ganization of the party will be affected. There are many able men in the ranks and it will not be a very difficult matter to secure the right man.

"No sooner was this done," continued the story teller, "than a great uproar of protests arose from the group in the corner.

Then, to make a long stary short, my silent partner offered me $1,000 cash for my interest, and as $1,000 looked about as big as a mountain at that stage of the game I promptly accepted.

The $500 he gave me on faith that morning was worth fully 10 per cent a minute."
