[low Malcolm McKinnon Fonnl Complete and Permanent Relief From His Kidney and Stomach Troubles. Shunacadie, Cape Breton 00., N. 5., April 19 (Special).~Sufier- ing with Backache so much that he could not Work, Malcolm McKinnon a well known resident of this place took a friend's advice and used Dodd’s Kidney Pills. The result is that he is back at work and his Backache is gone. “Yes,” he says, in speaking of his case, “I was troubled with Backache. due to wet feet and hard work. It got so severe at last I was quite unable to do my work. “It was through a friend’s ad- vice I started to use Dodd’s Kidney Pills, and I was soon aware that they were doing me good. My back was easier and I had less pain in urinating. “As Dodd’s Kidney Pills had done me so much good I thought I would try Dodd’s Dyspepsia Tab~ lets and I did so with marvellous effect.

GROWTH OF GRAND TRUNK Marvelous Progress Made Under Manager Hays. _ Since January, 1896, the Grand Trunk Railway System has increas- ed the operating mileage by 11 per cent, through the acquisition of the C. A. Railway. The tonnage for 1907â€"the last complete year’s report of the companyâ€"was 111.9 per cent. greater than the num- ber of tons moved in 1890. Gross earnings for 1907 topped those for 1896 by an even 99 per Centâ€"net earnings being 85.7 per cent. over those for 1896. Fixed charges and rentals for 1907 were but 3.2 per cent. above those for 1896. New Year’s day, 1896, showad a deficit of approxi- mately $1,500,000; December 31, 1907, was passed with the payment of $4,100,139 in dividends as the result of a year’s work. The first six months of 1908 pro- duced $928,110 dividends on the 4 per cent. guaranteed stock of the company. These figures, few as they are, speak volumes for the.brilliant ad- ministration of the trust rcposed in Charles Melville Hays when he was elected second vice-president and general manager of the Grand Trunk system. Nor did it take a dozen years to demonstrate the Wisdom of giving him absolute sway over this transportation system, which prior to his appointment had been largely managed from London, England. ._._.,x.-.

W_-_‘,_ INDIAN S G000 FARMERS. In Saskatchewan They Are. In- dustrious and Prosperous. The Indian of the great prairie province of Saskatchewan are. dis proving the theory that an Indian They are becoming industrious and pros pwous. There are nearly 8,000 Indians in I the province and last year they had about 9,000 acres under crops. They raised 150,572 bushels of grain and roots and 30,000 tons of hay, worth $136,023. The Departmrynt of Indian Af fairs reports that the Indians are- turning more and more to the soil for a. living. The agent of the As- siniboine agency, which may be re~ garded as typical, writes: “I was greatly pleased to find that the area under crop was al- most double what it was the year before. The band had about (300 acres of wheat and 200 acres 0f oats. The Indians of tnis agency are beginning to farm on a large scale, and if they continue to do as well as they have in the last two years there will be some good sized farms among them. One man has 155 acres in crop and another 125 acres, and several had seventy acres each. There was a decided improvement in the way the land had hen farmed.” '1‘ THE CULLINAN DIAMOND. Queen 11 ill Wear it Scpnrnlc From Crown on State Occasions. The King and Queen, anxious to make the fullest possible practi- cable use of the Transvaal’s mag- nificient gift, the Cullinan dia- mond, have consulted the court jewelers, Messrs. Gerrard, of Lon- don, as to whether it can be arâ€" ranged that the splendid gem shall be so set in the Imperial Crown as to be detachable for wear by her- Majesty on great state occasions, as it was at the recent opening of Par- liament. The feasibility of the plan having been demonstrated, the jewelers have been honored with his Majesty’s commands to carry out the work. Thus thp Cullinan, while retaining a status of a crown jewel, will be available for wear by the Queen on occa- sions on which the Crown itself is not in actual use. 'I‘ They Soothe Excited Nerve-s. â€"â€" Nervous affections are usually at- tributable to defective digestion, as the stomach dominates the nerve centres. A course of Parmelee’s Vegetable Pills will still all disturâ€" bances of this character, and by restoring the stomach to normal ac- tion relieve the nerves from irrita- tion. There is no sedative like them and in the correction of irre- gularities of the digestive pro- cesses, no preparation has done so effective work, as can he testified to by thousands.

The sudden fog which settled upon the Strait of Mcssina was paralleled by a heavy mist accompanying the Mexican earthquake of January IREJQ, and the writer adds that rain- fall is so frequently reported as the immediate successor of an earthquake that “we can no longâ€" er reject the hypolhesis of a. real Connection between the two.” Prof. Milne has suggested that the disâ€" turbance of the ground when transmitted to the overlying air may determine precipitation, _ thus explaining the apparent assocration of severe. earthquakes Willi mist and rain. _____*___..-’ A Woman's Sympathy Are you discouraged?
