PARCELS POST SERVICE.

It is hustling job which the post office department has before it in the completing Of the details and getting everything in readiness for the oper- ation of the parcels post system the tirst of the year. This is a change which the people throughout the coun- try are looking forward to with a great deal of interest and one which has great promise for the future. Es- inmates have recently been forwarded from the pOstoffice to the treasury de- partment showing that an increased expenditure of S12,086,909 is contem- plated for the coming year over last year This will be caused by parcels post 10 the extent of s7,240,O0O while the department expenses will be in creased by s1,350,0O0 by the change in conditions under the new eight hour law and extensions in the department
 While the parcels post will start out as a seemingly expensive proposi- ton, it is bound to be at least self sustaining proposition for the govern ment and a great aid to the postofFice department. By efficient work of the administration, the postoffice depart ment in the past year was able to show surplus. This will be con- tfnued and the fact that the increased operating cost is largely due to par cels post, which will be a revenue pro- ducer, seems excellent reason for the belief that it will be more than made up when returns from that source be- gin to roll in. Much can be expected from parcels post.

TRAFFIC ORDINANCES

There are now in operation in this city the new ordinances governing the trafhc in the central part of the city. It is something which the city has been in need of for a long time, and it's coming is in line with similar ac- ton which has been taken in all eff les where traffic gets to the point where congestion requires action. Nor wich is not favored with wide streets. They were laid out too long ago. The result is that there comes a time when order is required in the use of the busy highways. The right side of the street has always been recognized as the proper path 10 travel, but fail ure to observe that by everyone makes confusion and makes traffic regulations necessary.
 It will require some time and an in cltnahon on the part of the drivers of vehicles to cooperate in making the regulation a success. No one is more vitallv interested in them than the man who drives a team or an auto, It should be his aim to give the au- thorities every assistance possible in requiring obedience to the regulations. Traffic should keep to the right, cor ners should be turned with that in mind and teams which have to be left for a brief time must be left on the proper side of the road. The right attitude to the regulations by every one will soon get strict observance and trafhc win move as smoothly and orderly as in larger cities.

CANADIAN COAL DEPOSITS.

Canada is making efforts to develop all its natural resources, and in addi- tion to getting the best out of the vast farming lands of the northwest, it has been brought to their attention that there are great coal fields await ing development. This announcement at a time when the coal question is of such importance here and so much de- pendence is placed on the supply from the United States is of especial value to the neighbor to the north.
 When J. Lawrence Hamilton, M. R. c. S., of Brighton, England, announced the wonderful resources of coal 1t came with great surprise and unex- pectedness to the Canadian people. Though there has been but a partial survey he roughly estimates that dis coveries at the present time show that 175,000,000, 900 tons are awaiting the coming of the miners. This is in all grades, with half a billion tons of anthracite, "A billion tons of bitum. inous and the remainder of Ignite and sub -bituminous. With this the sup ply of natural gas is also a big factor and it's use for all purposes is now being made in some of the provinces. Mining on an extensive scale Is pre- dicted in the coal regions in the near future
 It is quite evident that Canada is only just beginning to know the ex- tent of it's advantages and that it has great opportunities for making the most of natures gifts. All of this is going 70 be of inestimable value to the industrial future of the upper half of the North American continent. Coal is a great national asset.

Man the Weaker Vessel.

Instead of being physically the weaker vessel think that the woman is stronger than the man.
 Little girls, unless hindared by man agers, are as fond of outdoor exercise and bodily sports as are boys. Left alone, the average girl is tomboy.
 The lines of a healthy woman's body, when matured, are stronger than male lines, Look at the pillared firm ness of the legs. the suppleness of the waist and the breadth and power of the chest, shoulders and arms of the woman athlete; how much more i'm pression of panther power they give you than does the mohotonous mas siveness of the male giant.

women did all the hard work; men only hunted and fought.
 Women bear children; the male is never subjected to any so great strain.
 Women teach school. especially the lower grades. No occupation has yet been discovered so wearing on the nerves, such a drain to the vitality, as school teaching. The average male teacher quits simply because he is not physically up to 1t. Women can endure more drudgery than men. A man says he wouldn't stay home all day and do houseWork with a lot of children under his feet. As a matter of, fact, he couldn't.
 There are many more women who excel in masculine occupations than there are men who excel in feminine occupations.
 Contrary to the common belief, think there are more men led astray and ruined by women than there are women lured to wrong by men.

TRAIL, SICKLY CHILD
Restored To Health By VinoI-A
 Letter to Mothers.

Anxious mothers often wonder why their children are so pale, thin and nervous and have so little appetite. For the benefit of such mothers in this vicinity We publish the following letter.
 J. Edmund Miller. New Haven, Conn.,, says: My little daughter ever since her birth had been frail and sickly, and was a constant source of Worri- ment. Several months ago we com menced to give her Vinol I imme- diately noted an improvement in her health and appearance, and from the good it has done her I can truly say it will do all you claim
 This child's recovery was due to the combined action of the medicinal clements extracted from cod's livers, combined with the blood making and strength creating properties of tonic iron. which are contained in Vinol. Ninol will build up and strengthen delicate children, old people, and the weak, rundown and debilitated. We return the money in every case where | it fails. Broadway Pharmacy, G. c. Engler.

pEMocRATs ARE WINNERS.

Indications at midnight pointed to grand landslide to the democrats in the national election and to the fact that Woodrow Wilson would be the next president of the country. This was brought out in no uncertain man. ner by the early returns which were substantiated later in the evening. From all sources it was evident that the democrats had held fast together, while the republican party had suf- Tered from the split which was DOT tended and the result is no more than was predicted. With the two factions of the republicans unitedd the party would again have swept the country. Roosevelt was successful in carrying out his designs. the defeat of Presi- dent Taft. and it was through no other cause that the admirable administra- ton under President Taft will end by the country being given over into the hands of the democrats.
 It was not because the democratic candidates were so strong that the party was swept into office, but rather through the determination of the third party influence that Taft should not be returned to the White house, that we are to have four years of tariff for revenue only. The outlook is not cheering, but it is to be hoped that President Wilson will prove to be as safe, wise and business like a presi- dent as the man he will succeed.
 The state promises to be again un- dor inc orrTina of { Dol with a legislature which promises to be well mixed. The congressional contest in this state points to a solid democratic representation. Whether the democrats or the bull moose will claim the victory remains to be seen While the former get the votes and the offices the latter were important factors in giving it to them.
 Locally the election was like the country. The republican ticket was swept away by the deflections Judge Nelson J. Ayling was the only repub- hcan elected and the vote he received should make it certain that the office of judge of probate should be taken out of politics. He is the man the office needs.
 Now that the election is over, the country should settle down from the excitement in which it has existed for the past six months and buckle in to get all the benefit possible from ex- isting conditions. What the future has in store under Wilson gill come soon enough. Responsibility rests only in one direction and it should be fully realized. IL was intentional action, planned long in advance, and the re- suit is the only reasonable outcome.

The Kinship of Lust and Murder.

I have been reading one of those dramas of passion the daily press un- rolls before us daily. Hardly an issue of the newspaper but there is some murder caused by the man-woman feeling.
 This particular one was of a most revolting crime-I will not describe it further than to say that man most brutally killed his mistress. There is a kinship between love and life, and so there is between lust and murder.
 The utter cruelty of Orientals is a part of their sensuality. Sensualism is a matter of climax, and killing is close brother to it. The desire of the
 sultan to possess a female slave he
 wants, and his desire to bowstring one
 ne has ceased to want, are nearly the same thing.
 Low love is volcanic spasmodic, de- structiye. imbruting. High love is a power like sunshine, it abides. is strong, persistent, creative, ennobling By this you shall know real love that it can endure and wait. The love | that is very near animalism cannot wait, it has no restraint, no repose, nc time element.
 There can be no real tragedy in true
 love; it always triumphs, even over death.

IDEAS OF A PLAIN MAI
Grown Up Children.

It is hard for people to understand the man who is but a grown up chili For there are men and women who cannot mature.
 They cannot sink into the cramped form of what they are supposed to be- They have the child's love of do- ing the very thing that is not expected of them.
 They have the childs intuitional, in eXcusable, yet violent attractions and repulsions.
 They have the child's utter absorp- tion in the present. The past slips from them so easily. The future casts no shadow. It is all a strong, healthy Now. How many crimes are not orim- inal at all, but just the outbreak of a childish passion for the present!
 They have the child's naive, intense and often charming egotism. Though wrapped up in self, yet somehow their company is more cheery than a t,o conscious unselfishness.
 They have the child's love of play, and entire willingness that others should work and support them.
 If they like you, there is something about their love that seems sWeeter than if it were more rational; for they love as children love-just because.
 They have the child's delight in movement, color and tense moments, Alas. how the ways of deepest dark ness in the city streets are sown with little child-hearts, in women that could never realize!
 They have the child's love of fancy and aversion to fact. They ask not for the truth. What they say is. 'Tell us a story
 When we meet these eternal children we should not blame them, for that IS so easy to do and so cheap and cruel but we should mother them and father them, if so be we have more staid- ness.
 1 For perhaps He who loved the little children may have for these mripeneG souls some tenderer judgment thar for us.
 And then. perhaps, it is we that ! but of course it isn't.
