GOOD r.O4D8 MOVING It is pleasing to note that the first item on the program at Toronto in au ct dealing with tin- movement for better road* throughout the province. \V<- un lei stmnl that it is the purpose of the KoviTiiuifiil to give assistance lo this important work on a siuiil uatin to that governing grants for education, libraries, etc., but tho ex- act details will uol be made known until the bill ia brought down. It is also interesting to iinln the rapid atridfd tiiat the movement lias tal.i n since being placed in the hands of in ergi-tic committees.

This is likely to be remedied at the present session of parliament. There are those who say, " Oh, well, it wilh come out of our own pockets eventu- ally, anyway." Not if Jud<e Wood's suggeBtio'-is are carried out aud d- bctilurea ruined to cover a tciies of lif.v yeais, and not altogether then, Ur.tu-e the government has au in creasing income from mines, forest!*, etc.., to a ninliou of which income we will have a right ; and also, while il would be taking a very small sum an- nmilly from the farmers pocket il would be pulling more in than il took out, through increased facilities and wear and tear on vehicles, which of itself ib a big item. We trust that the good work begun will result m some thing langible being done in the very near future. Cli-tn F:tceil. i l>un i k I .

The commonest symptom* of dys- pepsia or nerve trouble, such as pal- pitation, weak spells, loss ot appe- tite, and poor circulation, are magni- fied and distort.il into serious signs of heart trouble, with the obj< frightening the public into taking this or that heart remedy. If a hundredth part of the heart trouble we hear about were real, the ceme- teries would be filled in a month. A wrong construction is put upon com- mon ailments ia order to humbug the people into the belief that heart disease is prevalent, whereas real heart trouble, which is so sadly and suddenly fatal when it does occur, is a rare disease. Lopsided arguments cannot convince an intelligent people. Iron is the vital element of the blood.
