They certainly are called upon to bear a large share of_ sorrow. but, alas, none can rule other- wise. or they -very soon would. Seldom, indeed, does a death -cause more profound sorrow than was the case when it became knower on Sun- day that Mrs, Jos. Luke had passed away. The shock was the More se- vere, as none knew she was ailing. Last Thursday she took tea at the home of her son, W. J. Luke, and was then as well as ever. A cold later de- veloped, e- velobut it did not bother her un- til Sunday morning, 'when 'she, not feelingwell, decided not to get up. Mrs. NV. H.

Mr. Roberts, of Sovereign Bank staff, after being laid up at his home in Mt. Forest for the past two months with typhoid fever, returned to work yesterday. Miss Mary Valentine, who was oper- ated on for appendicitis at St Mich- ael's hospital, Toronto, a couple of week ago. is rapidly recovering • and will be home in a few days. Large congregations were . present at all three charges, Unionville, L'Amoreaux and Markham, on Sun- day last to hear the Rev. S. A.

Owing to nnforseen circumstances it will be impossible to open the new St. Margaret's church, Scarboro, on Tuesday, Nov. 5th' as previously ar- ranged. It will not be opened now until the spring, when due notice will be given. A good story is being told at the ex- pense of a Stouffville angler who spent a couple of weeks at Tamagami the past season.

Kaulbars, Commander -in -Chief. of this military district, presumably acting under orders from St. Peters- . burg, began to seriously enforce martial law on Thursday afternoon. 'Chis action was gratefully welcomed by the peaceably disposed residents. The garrison was withdrawn from the barracks, pickets were mounted _in the streets, strong patrols set to moving, and Maxim gens placed in the chief thoroughfares. The po- lice also were restored to duty. The effect thus far has been wholly satis- 'factory. The crazy conflict of the rival demoniac mobs has ceased. Five thousand ruffians have had their revolvers taken from them, A stern warning has`been given that nobody shall leave their houses af- ter 9 p.m., at which hour all lights out, Those disobeying will be arrested. vbody appear - POLISH DE]'iONSTATIONS. A despatch from Warsaw says: - Never since the insurrection of 1863 have doings like those of Thursday been seen here. .. "God Save Poland-," and "Long Live Poland," have been the watch- words of remarkable demonstrations, which were national in character. Processions headed by men carrying the, flag of independent Poland and othere Polish banners formed at the Roman Catholic' churches, parad.d the streets. The Homan ,priests, in canonical vestments, marched be- neath the flags at the head of 'each column. It did not matter that the Governor on Wednesday forbade sueh parades. The 'demonstrators filed in front of his palace, halted, raised their banners defiantly and ,sang na- tional songs with the refrain "God Save Poland."

Murkar & Thexton, Proprietors NOTES AND COMMENTS. - One half of the world have no • idea how the other half lives • Those who live amid the surround- ings of wealth luxury and plenty, and to whom the word "hunger" 'has no meaning, cannot appreci• • ate the misery endured by the toilers in large cities. In the y _,rid, there is plenty for all, but it Qeems is be the fate of a great many to endure hunger, cold and many other forms of suffering when their neighbors are revell- ing amidst every • material thing ' thing the heart can desire, and • who are oblivious of nli?ery that 'they have the power to alleviate. From England, come tales of ter- rible 31if1hings among the hewer .classes w ' are unable to secure work, g1ncT if they do nut gnt relief, liloodrli•tared.

The Bar the .Farmer's Laetny. t The bar is one of the greatest ene- "mics the farmer has. Thousands of dollars are lost every year in :this township through the farm hands go- • .ing nff on a drunken bout. One farm- . er_lost $50 on: hay.alone. It had been a wet time and he had two fine fields of hay out. ' The weather cleared up '--on Saturday and the next four days were very.' fine, • but .the hired than . went to the bar -room on Saturday night and did not return to work un- til Thursday morning,. when it was raining main. His team :t tonal idle - • during this time in the stable. The . hired man spent $8 on his spree .and 'the farmer estimated his loss on the a , .hay at 850. : •. . - .. Fanners, the har it vour enemy. ..'Vote it out: . - - Ahotit one yearaigo a farmer near • •Greenwood had to stay- up all night to keep his hired than froru tearing things to pieces generally; and to care for a respectable neighbor' whoiit he - had picked up near our hotel. Both - ' :.hired man and neighbor got :their - whiskey over they Greenwood bar. Oar Commissioners cut off this bar la t May and no such thing occm's in t die -locality of Gi eelityood now. (Farmers_ rise in your might and cut off the other five liars in this t;awn- .hip, - .- • A few weeks ago threshing was in Rill swing on rine of oar Pickering -'fitrnis. A few of the hands took a notion to visit.. a ' neighhhriti� ' hni'- room. The visit tv;u proleligs ei into hours and the whole outfit and the •- - nthc•r_workmmn have to stand idle lin- , til the drinkers saw fit to return. The farmers do- not realize how much they lose in these ways. They have now the power and the oppor- N.,tianity to banish the bar. Let them • -r1 ri it. 411.40 A young rutin was laid in an untime- i ty grave a few weeks ago. Ile was a goo 'i steady workman -whey, sc.:'-r. He worked fofa nuuiber of the farm- ers in this locality to their great satis- faetiun. - If "it had not been fur the bar-rootus of Pickering Tow nshi , this 3 oung man would in all probability be a respected workman aulong us to day. the har must go, or our boys must go. Which shall it be? Two threshers brought a bottle of of liquor with them to a- respectable farmer's premises a few days ago. The hired girl, who likes a drop, found the bottle in the buggy and so liberally helped herself that the farmer's wife had a li -.dy helper for the rest of the day And this takes place in the en - lig itened township of Pickering, Who can estimate the farmer's loss in a single year through the money in the hands of the consumer, which should.go to the farmer in exchange for'his beef, pork, butter. eggs, apples and other produce being diverted into other channels. For instance a farmer sells a brewer 4 bushels of barley at fifty cents re- ceiving $2. Now, these 4 bushels of barley will furnish two drinks a day over the bar for a whole year to some mechanic or laborer costing him $36.50. Now if the bar was closed the consumer could purchase of the farni- er the following produce : • 100 lbs of.beef at .. ..$ 7 00 100 pork at.. 8 00 " butter at. ... 6 50 .. '- 10 bags apples at .. 4 (.0 260 qts milk at.. . , ... 10 00 1 turkey at.... . _ .. ,... 100 Total.. .. 438 50 Farmer, your four bushels of barley sold to the brewer destroys the pur- chasing power of 83a 50 in the hands ofthe consumer. -Banish the bar and this $36 50 will come to you instead of going into the coffers of the liquor seller's.

The deceased was about 45 years of age and leaves a widow and two children. One of our farmers, who has a fondness for eider, gathered to- gether a wagon load of the choi- cest snow -apples, which he placed in bags, and left them iu the orchard until he was ready to take •them to the mill. Early one morning last week, having noth- ing else to do, he wended his way with his team to the wagon, on reaching which he found empty, b igs and apples having disappear- ed. A. number of Italians who are working on the C. P. R. are suspected of the theft.

In the year 1854 she mar- ried Wm, son of John and Mary Cochrane, of Burford township, and began farming on what was then known as the John Welsh farm, afterwards removing to lot 11, con. 8, Pickering township, where she remained until the time of her death. Deceased had been in failing health for over a year having a serious illness for only a few days, but very great hopes of her recovery had been enter- tained when quite suddenly- the call came and with her dying breath she commended her soul to God, ;using the words, "Lord God receive me unto thy self." De- ceased was a woman highly re• spected by a large circle of friends and the esteem in which she was held was shown by the large concourse of friends who assembled to pay their last tri- bute of respect to her memory.

If one-fourth of the 171 million acres were under wheat, it would supply Britain three times over and the home market as well. By 1915 there will, it is estimate'', be ten million acres under wheat, yielding 200 million bushels, Tho Canadian west is capable of producing three billion bushels of wheat., The Canadian west is capable of producing 20 times Britain's annual imports of wheat. Canada's wheat crop, 1904, SO mil- lion bushels (60 millions in the west). Canada ranks tenth among the world's wheat -producing countries. Canada's wheat crop is nea.'Iy double !that of the United Kingdom. Canada's grain crop of all kinds reached -(1903) 275 million bushels.

Famous "Chain" Started .by Friend of Australian Hospital Still Going. • A recent issue of the South Aus- tralian Register; of Adelaide, con - tams a long and instructive article on the history, present position and future prospects of the famous Grif- fin snowball letter, says London Truth. It is now nine or ten years since this "snowball" or "chain let- ter" was started. Ir. tvill ler remembered that the. thing originated in a small and in- significant local project to add a children's ward to a cottage hospi- ta! in a suburb of Sydney. On the committee •was a gentl..'tnan earned Griffin, who was a prot'sslonal .stamp dea!t'r, In conjunction with his daughter . he iu•opoSed .. to .the committee that a chain letter •huuld be started by his daughter, in h.or own name, for the coiiectron of a million used penny rtaicips, and that 'he would add to the its•..icescis a_ ser- tain siert sufficient to snake up the sum rryiaired, Something in the wording- of • the original—probal'd, the reterence to the n'c'd of. a ceildrrvt's word -in a h ,spital—api, ai,'d to public senti- ment".

In the sane way, the 'address, and oven the name. of 'Miss Griffin became mangled beyond re- cognition; and ninny letters are now in circulation directing the contri- bution of stamps to be sent to places and countries remote from New South Wales. As regards the result of all this fetter writing and, stamp collecting,, the information given by tho 'South Australian iteg;ister is neost 'inter- esting. I have been under the im- pression myself that some time ago the New- South Wales post'office took the drastic step of stopping the delivery of the letters; but on this point I find •that I have been mis- informed. It turns out that the let- ters have been and still are being delivered, so •far . as is 'practicable.- It practicable:It seems, however, that 31r_ and Miss Griffin thern.solves long ago be- came tired -of the l LABOR ANP ERP1'NSF involved in merely opening the let- ters and sorting their contents, as well they mignt under the circum- stances; and ever since 1902 Mr. Griffin 'has handed over his Mails in bulk to the hospital. Ile says ,that. he has thereby lost many private letters addressed to himself, which serves hint right. And what does the hospital , do with these mountains of correspon- dvnc.e? It simply sells them 'in bulk. to any buyer for what they will fetch. The present rate is $2.75 a thousand. The secretary of the hos- pital is, of .the opinion that occas- ionally the. buyers make a good.. thing out of it„ for the reason that the • letters naw ane] then contain contributions in cash as well as in old stamps, -and it • ens happened, that a' buyer who has fennel• money among the letters has been so con- scientious 'as to return it to the hospital. Such cases, however, are rare. • At nay Cate, the hospital evidently considers that the chance of finding 'nil occasional post office ardor nr check instead of stamps is too specu-. lative to justify the expenditure it would hnt'o to incur in opening and �t.iriplcr—Did Miss Kutts-adrnit•c' your paintings? .

Moreau in . a previous article, whlck was widely published, predicted the earthquakes which a few mouths age devastated India, and which he held duo tosua spots. • He declared in an article published "There is'a connection between so- lar activity and volcanoes and even earthquakes.

Such a cure William John Dixon of -this place is certain he has discovered in Dodd's Kidney Pills. "I had an attack of typhoid. fev- er," says Mr, Dixon, "and after got oyer it Rheumatism set in. I had pains in my back and in my right hip so bad I had to use a stick to walk -and had no comfort in sleeping. I could no more than dress or undress myself for nearly two months, and for three weeks I could not lace my right shoe or put my right leg on my left knee. "Acting on my brother's advice I began to use Dodd's Kidney Pills, and after taking three boxes I was able to walk around and do my work. Now I am well and I recoin- mend anyone who has Rheumatism to try Dodd's Kidney Pills."

The report is an •- 'exhaustive one, and is of much in- terest, especially to those who • • have friends in that district and also to those who contemplate settling in that . fertile region. A striking feature of the report is that out of nineteen years of con- tinuous crops, the yield of wheat this year is greater than that 'of ny form.'r year. Out of thirty '-.varieties of wheat the yield aver- aged from 30 to 46 bushels per acre, about one-half yielding 40 :. bushel; and over, only seven vari eties yielding less than 30 bushels .., per acre. Oats also were •an ex- oellent crop. Forty-two varieties • were tested, and of these 28 aver - 'aged from 100 to 117 bushels per acre, and none less than 72 bush - 'els per acre. It required from 1&i to 147 days for the V,1,oat to ma- ture and the oats fr;•ai 104 to 124 • days to mature.'
