yet, although it has cost the govern
ment of Canada more than 500, 0O0,
600, it has proved a sound investment,
and no one regrets it. Before 1910,
Canada will probably have three, if
not four transcontinental routes. Last
year that wilderness of thirty-tive
years ago, with its climate inewhich
it was supposed no one could live,
poured out "a, 600, 600 bushels of wheat,
l57, 600, 600 bushels of oats and 30, 000,
600 bushels of barley, taxing to their
utmost the resources of the railways
in the moving of the crop. When this
vast enterprise was undertaken, about
1870, the entire population of the Do
minion was just about that of the city
Of New York at the present time.
Canada does not yet count, as we do,
in hundreds of millions, bit, with
about one fifteenth of our population,
she can and does count in tens of mil
ions. With every succeeding year Can
ada is becoming more and more force
to be reckuned with in the industrial
world"
In educational matters Canada is
keeping pace with her material devel-
opment. About 30, 600 schools are
maintained at an annual cost of $11,
600, 600, supplying school privileges for
each forty children of school age. The
details of this grand aggregate show
that this careful provision for the
rising generations is made in the wild
erness of twenty-five years ago and in
the sparsely settled provinces of to-
day, as we'll as in the older settlements
of the Dominion
This material and moral exhibit is
supplemented 10y the facts of polit-
ical unification and strength that is
the counterpart of the change in the
United States that followed the civil
war The political and race friction
which in 1S37-'3S eliminated in re-
bellion have practically disappeared
and the Dominion appears to be as
compact national unit as are the
States of this Union
1t is very striking array of facts
the Sun has marshalled respecting the
growth and strength of the ''big boy"
across the northern border. If Yer
mont would, its people might learn a
lesson from the course of the much
moderated 'Canuck" government in
rising superior to its misfortunes, its
PHYSICAL and political disabilities.
The State has no need to- appropriate
500, 600, 600 for transcontinental rail-
way. 1t needs to appropriate and ex-
pend in pursuance of a carefully framed
policy sums of money which would be
ample-and which the State is amply
able to ray-to radically change the
States present material condition, and
in kind if not in degree start it on a
| course of material prosperity and
growth in population which have been
and will continue to be the results of
liberal and persistent policy of
development in the regions of the Do
mini on. Let the hedgehogs and their
kindred rest for while and rise to
! higher things.

II Must Come.

As inevitable as the changing seasons Of
the year is the change which comes to
every woman. And just as one anticipates
the changes of other seasons 1t is wise to
anticipate this change of season and pre-
pare for It. In this way the dscomforts
and disasters suffered by many women at
the period of change can be avoided or
overcome.
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, med
icine for every season Of wonans life, will
entirely meet the needs of women at this
petiod Of change. 1t cures the physical
ills and relieves the mental anxiety and
critical period 1t tranquilizes the nerves,
encourages the appetite and induces re-
freshing sleep.

st. Johnsbury did not want to be-
come a city but it did want some of
the benefits that city charter would
have granted, and to this end special
village meeting has been held tor a
revision of the existing by laws. There
was little opposition to the proposed
changes and now the police have auth
oriGy to abolish fast driving, overhead
signs, street corner groups and several
other features that were covered by
the proposed charter, The fine for
breaking any of these provisions is
fixed at So and costs. The law con-
corning billiard rooms, etc, is more
stringent than the others, the provi-
sion being that such places shall not be
open between l. o clock p. N. and 8
O'Clock a. m. and $40 is fixed as the
penalty. The only bylaw suggested
by the trustees that was not approved
and adopted was one relating to the
public parks. This provided that
everyone should keep off the grass,
but when it was apparent that this
would prevent the children from using
accustomed play grounds it was de-

BEER VERSUS WHISKEY.

One of the noticeable effects of the
Vermont high license law is the in
creased consumption of beer and ale.
This is not to say that the law has
decreased the sale of stronger liquors,
for in all probability this is not the
fact, for the increased sale of all kinds
of liquors is a natural consequence of
the advent of license. The increase
in the sale of malt liquors, however,
must be something enormous, although
in the absence of statistics it is inn
possible to even approximate the
amount sold. But the growth of the
popularity of beer and ale in Vermont
is only a repetition of the experience
of the country at large during the
past half-ceutury The bureau of sta
tistics of the treasury department has
just issued report called the "Sta-
tistical Abstract of the United States
in 1902, and although it looks on a
casual inspection as dull and uninter-
esting as such documents usually do,
much highly interesting matter. For
instance it may be learned from this
report that in 1850, when the first rec
ord was made the average American
year of wines and liquors of all
kinds, whereas it required 10. 4S gal
Ions in 1902.
1t would be unfair, however, not to
state that while the American of 1850
drank 2.23 gallons of distilled liquor
brandy and whiskey-his successor of
1902 was satisfied with l.. SO gallons.
In the matter of malt liquors, however,
the story is different for where the
average consumption III 1850 was 1. 50
! gallons the record of last year shows
( that it had increased TO II. 40 gallons.
Americans have never been great
wine drinkers and from consump-
! ii on of 27 of a gallon in 1850 it had
increased to only .63 of a gallon in
1902; moreover. from an industrial
point of view the wine record is even
better for, whereas i'll 1898 the value
of wine imports was SO, 205, 1853, in
1902 iU had decreased to IS, 921, 1873
if it were not matter of common OBJ
servation, the figures mentioned would
prove conclusively that so far as
America is a drinking nation it is a
! % IL, .,
discouraging however, for England
and Germany, the only nations with
which the United States can be fairly
compared, are far in advance in the
matter of malt liquid consumption.
The report of the bureau further
dispels some ideas that linger in the
uniformed mind concerning the in
toxicating liquor production of various
States.
With Milwaukee in mind one would
naturally think that Wisconsin leads
in the production of beer but the fact
is, New York is first with 10, 473. GAG
barrels, Pennsylvania second with
5, 567, GAG barrels, while Wisconsin has
record of only 3, 705, GAG barrels. The
same holds true regarding whiskey, fol-
while Kentucky is generally regarded
as the leading strong liquor State, the
report shows that Illinois leads with
production of 80, 742. S76 gallons,
while the Blue Grass State produced
only 26, 019, 1866 gallons. 1t must be
taken into consideration, however, thai
the government makes no official rec
ord of the moonshine whiskey indus
try.

Is There an American Facet

The English face, the Jewish face,
the Irish face, the Italian face, the
Chinese face, the Japanese face, the
French face, the Indian face, even the
negro facial these have something
about them which calls up a definite
picture in ones mind. But the Amer
lean face has no strong characteristic
to differentiate it from OtheEAfaces of
superior races, remarks London Health.
1t is international, for here and there
one may find the traces which suggest
a relation to this, that or the other face
1t may be line or ligament be-
queathed by an early English ancestry,
or something suggestive of Teutonic
origin, or a sharp suggestion of the
Frenchman's face or the Irishman's or
the Italians or the Scotchman's. But
when one must deal with the American
abstractly one can scarcely call up the
American face.
Uncle Sam, with his striped trousers,
his sharply cut coat, his plug hat, his
whiskers and his bland, good natured
countenance, is happy conception,
yet he may never hope to portray the
matchless and indescribable cosmopoli-
tanism of the American face.

STANDARD TIME.
It's Origin and the Arrangement of
It's Dividing Lines.

Standard time is system arranged
by the railroads of the United States
and Canada originally. The purpose
was to do away with the multitude Of
different times used in business
which, affected the railways and in
operating the lines. The territory i'll
which these railroads lay was divided
into belts running north and south and
about Is degrees wide, from east to
west; in every such division of the
country all railway business was to
be done on the same time. In the mari
time provinces of Canada and part of
Maine the time used was that of the
sixtieth meridian west of Greenwich.
In the rest of New England and as far
west as Pittsburg and Buffalo the time
fixed was that of the seventy-ffth
meridian. which Is the time OF Wash.
ington. The next belt westward was
ninetieth meridian time, which is about
the local time of New Orleans, and
tfIen comes mountain time, which is
nearly that of Denver. Still farther
west is Pacific time, which Is that Of
the one hundred and twentieth merid-
ian. Standard time divisions are not
just 10 degrees from east to west nor
are their boundaries regular. They are
mapped out to suit the railroads, and
the changes are usually fixed at points
which are functions for great railways
or division terminals on the same lines.
Sun time is supposed by most people to
be the actual astronomical time of ev-
cry place from day to day, but 1t is
really an averaging or equalizing of
exact local time, for the movements of
the earth are too irregular to permit the
convenient use of astronomical time,
just as 1t is determined by the position
of the heavenly bodies.-Detroit Free
