That is to say, there is a large percentage of our workingwomen who are entirely dependent upon their own earnings, and it is felt that the right of these women to a living wage should be upheld in the face of the fact that many semiâ€"dependent women are naturally willing to work for less than a living wage. Minimum wage laws in Canada, then, have been passâ€" ed largely with the aim in view o!, making it illegal for an employer to pay or a female worker to accept lessg than a certain rate of wages, deemed Almerta is now the seventh province of the Dominion that has committed itself to a policy of governmental reguâ€" lation of wages for women. In British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and Ontario government regulation is well under way; in Alberta, Quebec and Nova Scotia the requisite legislaâ€" tion has been enacted, but the acts are not yet in force. Alberta has not yet: had time to take action; but Nova Scotia and Quebec have had the legisâ€" lation on their statute books for three years. Action will probably be all the more effective for the delay, for these i two provinces will soon have a wealth | of experience in other parts of the | Dominion to guide them, when they do | begin to enforce their Minimum Wage' Acts. 10u can get these pills th.ovgh any dealer in medlicine or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams‘ Medicine Co., Brockâ€" villa m_i i Cithuinat io .4. 108 1 d 02 + #"Cintyre, Gananoque.

Their awards are not generally as bigh as those in Sasâ€" katchewan and British Columbia, but by the use of the informal conference with employers and employces, they are making a valuable addition to the world‘s experience in minimur wage regulation. the minimum, and about {w;tâ€"i;irds of the workers in shops and stores are in a similar position. the opinion held by many that & miniâ€" mum wage is apt to become the maxiâ€" mum and so defeat its own purpose.

A GOOD MEDICINE FOR THE BABY The names of two cheeses, Cheddar and Stilton, come from two villages, one in Somerset and the other in Huntingdonshire. Worcester, Dresâ€" den, and Sevres have all given names to different kinds of china, and Delft, a small Dutch town, is remembered by Delft pottery. Cherries came from the city of Ceraâ€" sus, which once stood in Asia Minor, while chestnuts preserve the name of Castana, another city of the past, whence the trees first came to Europe. _ _Tweed suits, Inverness capes, and Leghorn hats are examples of the same thing. The connection between damsons and Damascus is not so obâ€" vious, but damson is really only a conâ€" traction for Damascene plum. Curâ€" rants get their name from the fact that originally they were made from small grapes, which still grow near Corinth, in Greece; they were formerâ€" ly called Corinthians.
