'~ Nelson's Peerless Name

The British victory over the I-"renclt off Cape Trafalgar, fought on the Zlst of October. i805. is one of thc nlemorable battles of history. It was the closing scene of a. vast military Ind naval drama which filled for more than two years the immense

etassc bounded by Europe and the

_ ‘Vest Iiidirs. It had far reaching con-

sequences in checking the ambition of Napoleon. whose contemptuous opin- lull of England as “a nation of shopkeepers“ failed i0 take into ac- count the indomitable gcnius of her seamen.

ft is said that his famous signal was to have been worded: "Nelson confides that every man will do his duty," and that his own name was replaced by that of England on the suggestion of one of his officers. The II of ink name as an inspiration and an appeal would have been per- fectly consistent with his tone at all times. but he agreed to the alter- eion with the indifference of a man to whom self and country were one It that hour. He parted with Cap- tain Blackwood of the "Euryalus" with I prophecy of his approaching fate. The light of Coilingwood. the friend of his youth, leading the lee line in- to action in the "Royal Sovereign" drew from him a cry of admiration at the noble example his comrade was showing.

You haye often heard the expres- sion "You can get too much of a good thing." I think this applies to that body of yours more than any- thing else of which I know.

For instance you have been told about the importance of having a regular intestinal habit-once or twice daily, This is very true, but if in order to accomplish this you eat all kinds of coarse foods, bran. apple cores, the skins and seeds of fruits, coarse oatmeal, raw cabbage and so forth, you are going to be bothered with indigestion. gas formation, and probably loss of weight.

Further if you decide to take med- icines to purge the large intestine. nvhat happens? The intestine gets cleared out. all right but as it takes two or three days for it to get filled ‘again, you might feel that in order ‘to get an intestinal movement daily, ‘you should take medicine daily.

This is likewise a mistake. because no harm can come by waiting until ‘the large intestns is filled agafii; a.

matter of two days usually.

The pointythen is that while a

little bran added to the food or a -litt.le fruit is advisable, large quant- ‘ities are unlecessary and can cause uiiidigestion and irritation of the lin- (ing-of the intestinal wall.

And the same thing applies to en-

emas.

There is no question but that an genema-or injectipn as it is often lcalled-is one of the most valuable lforms of treatment known. In cases iof colic. of gas formation, of chronic -COl'lSl5l]')Bl.lOl1, nothing gives quicker

The value of Canada's import trade. during the same period, from within the British Empire was $257.- 398531; from foreign countries Si,- iooazeosso; from the United King- dom $l94,020,573; from the United States $868,055,897.

Canada's aggregate trade within the British Empire, during the fiscal year 1928-29, amounted to $793,042,- 548. The Dominion imported goods from within the Empire to the value of $257,398,531, and exported goods within the Empire to the value pf $536,004,017.

Editorial Notes

The Guardian is in receipt of a magnificently printed and illustrated volume of 43s pages. sivins a com- prehensive Review of the National

Liberal - Conservative Convention held at Winnipeg, Manitoba. Oct. 10 to i2. 1927. In a preface to the

volume. Mr. John R. MacNicol, pre- sident of the Liberal-Conservative 'Association of Canada and compiler of the Review, states that the i927 convention has passed into history as one of the memorable events in the political activities of Canada. This great political assembly exem- rpllficd the democratic principle that

the national leader of a great politi- calparty should be chosen by the

forces of the party regularly repre- sented in a National Convention. The review contains some 1500 authori- ative sketches and engravings of de- legates representing every Province, thus affording the rank and flle of the Liberal-Conservative Party I better acquaintance with the people who are responsible for the direction of the Party! activities

“The number of plates they tore from the temple of the Sun was 700; and though of no great thickness probably. they are compared in size to the lid of n chest ten or twelve inches wide.”

Before the treasure had crept up to the nine-foot line the ‘Spaniards became impatient and decided to di- vide it, and this involved melting down the gold and silver into ingots. because in the spoil was an infinite variety of articles.

Says Prescott:

"These articles of goblets, ewers, salvers, vases of every shape and size. ornaments and utensils for the tem- pies and the royal palaces, tiles and plates for the decoration of the public edifices, curious imitations" of dif- ferent plants and animals.

And even if Mr. Campbell ls elected, we are fairly confident that I-Ion. J. D. Stewart will again be required to res- cue the ox and the ass from the dtches of their own maladminlstra- tions. According to Mr, Lea. he is as

as Hon. Frank McPhee is to be Min- ister of Public Works. I will say this for him, he is as 'well qualified to be Attorney-General as he is to be Pre- mier of this Province, and he will find that to be the general opinion at the next election. Evidently Mr. McPhee ls the thorn in tile flesh. Mr. Campbell ls greatly worried over the fact that Mr. Mcl-‘hee is not a. resi- dent of the Cardigan district. His friend the Patriot. is equally agitated. Surely after the convention in the Cardigan district it will cease its puling.

The defeat of the candidatur: of the Rt. l-lon. J. H.

The country was rich in gold and s11- ver, and the Spanish horses wore sil- ver shoes. Atahuallpa said the roofs of his temples were plated with gold and the floors tiled with it. He dazzled the gold-hungry warriors, and Pizarro accepted his offer to give for his free- dom gold which would fill m n line ‘nine feet from the floor a room nine- ,teen feet broad by twenty-two feet ‘long.
