Frequently children can- not. keep still, they move with strange actions, their limbs jerk and their features twitch nervous- ly. Speech is confused and the Whole muscular system not under central. These are among the symptoms of St. Vitus dance, a trouble that afflicts growing girls and boys, most frequently during the school ago. 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 girl Constance, was a. sufferer from St. Vitus dance. She was frightened badly by a. dog, which seemed to bring on the trouble, and notwithstanding all we did for her it seemed to be grow- ing worse. She grew so bad that she could not feed herself and her Vspeech'was so badly affected that “we could scarcely understand her: The twitching and jerking of her limbs was pitiable'. At this juncâ€" ture we began giving her Dr. Wilâ€" liams’ Pink Pills, and to our great joy they, have completely cured fie}, anhshe is now- as liealthy a. child as 3qu can Afingl.’:___ < ‘ - “There is 3310 evidence that he was overworked mentale or physd- Dally,” adds Dr. Taylog. “A man slept seven months withâ€" ‘put interruption ; on wno‘oh‘er wear Won fifibeen months.

The board of trade officer who had to certify the ship looked up aLl precedenms, and, al- though he found that no \ woman had ever boiore been signed on as surgeon of a ship, he could find nothing against it, and the woman doctor went out with the steamer.

The lawyers gained their point; but one short hour later Beattie Nesbitt was dead. INTERESTING BITS 0F GOSSIP FROM THE QUEEN CITY. Beattie Neabitt‘s hero in hum was Napoleon. Hi: living rooms were filled with pictures and books pertaining to the Emperor, and it is said that he de- voured ever line of Napoleon litera- ture he coud find. No doubt this fact explains why Nasbitt’s life was in some striking respects (not excluding the min- ery of later years) an imitation of Na- 991.0097!!- Nesbitt. was an organizer. He had the restless energy and lmaginatippof the promoter. He was resouwetul.‘ But it is hardly correct. to say that ’he 'waa either a. very strong or a very great man. He had the heart to resolve and the head t6" contrive but he rarely had the hand to execute. He has left his mark on the political life of Toronto. The Conservative Ward Associations as they exist to-day are a menument to his work. '«They are ex- ceedingly influential and effective in their organization, a fact for which Nesbitt must be thanked. His original idea. it is said. was to introduce an organization that would be as eflective 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 -i‘riends 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 said 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. "'8 Physical Strength. Many stories are Rild of his enormous strength. Once single-handed he cleaned up a crowd of lumber jacks who were making trouble in a northern camp. Again getting into an altercation with a cab man on account of some trifling dam- age“ that had been done to the sleigh in which Nesbitt was riding, he bought the outfit from the cabby for $25.00 and then turned it upside down on the street. 25 Blulng‘s 10 Organlzod Ward Assoolatlons. my doctor and used reme- friends advised.

Two of them, of course, are Sir William Mackenzie an Sir Donald Mann, the twins of the anadian Northern Railway system, who have spent their lives in get tin public utility franchises of one sort an another all over the world, turning them into going'conoerns and making tremendous profits in the process. It is at present impossible to. compute how much these two men are worth. No doubt they could not do .290 themselves. It is generally admitted. however, that their biggest coup has yet to come when they will put’ on the market the stock of the C. N. R. corporation. This trans- continental line, now running into its thousands of miles of traekagse, has been built entirely by the salemof bonds. the stock remaining in the control of.Mac- kenzie and Mann ‘persoually. 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 them in a list of a dozen of the wealthiest men in the world. The c. N. R. Group. Of the others named in the list, Mr. Z. A. Lah, Mr. D. B. Hanna,.Mr. Freder- ick Nicholle and Sir Henry Pellatt are more or less intimately associated,_ with Mackenzie and Mann corporations. Mr. hash is undoubtedly the ablest 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. few yeam ago Sir Henry Pellatt re ized over a million dollar‘s in cold cash from his sale of the control of the Toronto Electric Light 00. He 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 beholqers._ .. Sir Edmund Osler and Mr. W. D. Mair thaws are Toronto’s representatives among the Canadian Pacific Railway‘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. An estimate of the ten wealthiest men in Toronto and their fortunes has been published as follows: Sir William Mackenzie . .L . . .$15,000.000 J. C.

Gooderham ... .. . . .. .. .. §.§00,000 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’e Compensation legislation is that a fund is established to which em- ployers of labor oontrlbute, and out, of this fund damages are paid to workmen whenever amidents occur. Industries are graded awarding to the hazard. so that the employers in hazardous occupations have to pay more than those in less haz- ardous occupation-s. The workmen them- selves contribute nothing and the fund is administered by the State. Theoreticsll . legislation of this kind shoulgi sppl to everybodyI but_it is should applf to everybody but it is feared that. re resentativee of rural 00n- stituenciea wil object if farm laborers and store clerks are included. There is. therefo a possibility that these classes will be topped 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 notobject, fearing that. if they did so they‘véould 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.
