There must be lead- rship if the suggestion is to mater- slize, and it is upon the Government bat the duty devolves of taking the bitiative in all such matters. It is ittlng that the outstanding events in iii!- political history should be com- hemorated, and the erection of suit- ible monuments to this end is an ales, that should commend itself to ill our people. pa. 1'; MORE DRAGS, MORE JOBS ilWelnote that the Saunders Gov- ifiiment is calling for tenders for 200 Sac drags.

It is nosecret that the rumored appointment of an outsider-although native bom—to the new position will be anything but welcome to the local mandarins who have heretofore con- trolled the nominating machine. It was expected in Liberal circles that Mr. Sinclair would be recalled into the Cabinet, that his colleague would slip into an elevated position at home where he would be released from the uncertainties of a future election, and that a popular, brand new candidate, already picked, would have a fighting chance for the seat vacated by the present junior member for Queens. Now if Ottawa is to usurp the func- tions of the local bosses, and run its own candidate for the Ministerial po- sition, the chances are that it will gum up the works completely. The peeved attitude of the local Liberal organ, whose only contribu- tion to the discussion so far has been to tell The Guardian to “mind its own business,” is, in the circumstan- ces, quite understandable. ‘ FAVORITE nooks. A poll of the 7,000 members of the Book League of America, who were asked to name their favorite books, reveals some interesting facts about contemporary literary taste. Of the 4,000 members who had serlt in- their ballots up to Jan. 80, 2,416 named “TheDance of Life," by Havelock Ellis, as their favorite. "The Travels of Marco Polo" came next with 2,355 votes. Then came, in the order of their popularity: "Crime ahd Punish- ment," by Fyodor Dostoevsky; "The Return of the Native,” by Thomas Hardy; “Thais? by Anatole France; "The Golden Bough" by Sir James G. Frazer; "South Wind," by Norman Douglas; "The Way of All Flesh," by Samuel Butler; "Mo/by Dick,” by Herman Melville; "Tristram," by Edwin Arlington Robinson? “Inno- cents Abroad" by Mark Twain; "The Autobiography of Benvenuto Cellini"; “The Education of Henry Adams," by Henry Adams; “Palgraves Golden Treasury oi Songs and Lyrics"; "Daisy Miller)" by Henry James; “Outline of History," by H. G. Wells; "Marius the Epicurean" by Walter Pater; "Walden," py Henry David Thoreau, and “The Conspiracy. of Pontiac," by Francis Parkman. If the result of this poll proves any- thing at all, says the New lYork Times, it is that very few writers who are now living are making any deep impression upon that part of the reading public which constitutes the membership of the BooktLeague. A PARLIAMENTARY BULL. The Government, says the Tor- onto Mail and Empire, is as nervous over the western grain trade as a shell-shocked battalion. Rising in the House the other‘ day to contra- dict criticism oi the Government's responsibility for the grain trade abuses, Hon. Mr. Malcolm, Minister of Trade and Commerce, was so ex- cited that he perpetraied one of those refreshing bulls which from time im- memorial have been the terror of statesmen and the delight of audi- ences. “The fscts as stated," he ex- ‘ ' "are -' ' h" untrue,"- and he appeared amazed when even his colleagues joined in the laughter. This recalls a somewhat similarbon mot by a local politician, who, from the Government benches, rose to re- mark: "Mr. Speaker, men's some- thlng in this bill that's been left out.” And he, like m. Malcolm,‘ web-eur- prised at his own wit. X EDITORIAL NOTES.

Way 8h- Wiifred Laurie: at f7 years of age married Zoe Lefontaine and it was to a. bIPPY home in Arthebaska- ville that he cook his bride. The m- cent tr of this homestead to the Government of Quebec to be pre- served and perpetuated as a museum and a memorial of the Liberal Chief- tain, has moved the Brockville R8- eorder and Timesto unveil what may be called “the Laurier Love Story." We are told, that the first home of their wedded life was bound to the hearts of Sir Wilfrid and his lady as was no other spot on earth. The love story, at first tragic, but then con- stantly beautiful, says The Globe, “is worthy of the attention, of all ro- mantic Canadians." "Looking back over the years we see the brilliant young Laurier stricken with a deadly lung dis- ease: we see him sternly brushing aside any idea oi marriage with his youthful sweetheart and going off to fight his battle alone in the Eastern Townships. We see his sweetheart forced, for family reasons, into a mar- riage engagement with a successful young Montreal doctor. We see both Wilfrid and Zoe secretly heartbroken. We see Zoe outpouring her heart to a wise old physician. We see his in- tervention and the sudden Laurier- Lafontaine marriage. "It was to Arthabaska that Laur- ier took his bride. Together‘ they fought the battle of his health. To- gether they won. No wonder the green hills, winding roads. and bubbling waters always held a charm. No won- der in the hustle and bustle of pub- lic life the Lalu-iers always looked back to the Arthabaska days as a time oi enchantment, peace, content and satisfying, if humble, service." The Isthmus of Chignectc and the region round about have been fam- ous in history since the first settle- ment for fierce conflicts between white settlers and red men, and be- tween English and French. In those old days it bristled with military forts long since dismantled and was the scene of heroic exploits. It was fam- ous also for the rich marshlands of Tantramar, more productive now than they were a hundred years ago. In recent years the Isthmus has been the scene of projected and abandoned public works, such as the Bay Verte Canal, and the once near- ly completed Ship Railway. It is in- teresting to note that the canal pro- ject, now more than a century old, has again been brought before Par- liament and a resolution passed in the House of Commons calling for an investigation of its practicability, probable cost and utility if construct- ed. Charlottetown is in many respects a beautiful city, but our Central Square, is sadly lacking in neatness, of its area. Visitors from outside the Province wonder at this and ask why this is thus. They come to see us in the summer and most of them have occasion to visit the Post Ofdoe. As they glance westward they see across the street a rank growth of stinking weeds over which motor cars are parked. A little fur- and skins covered with flies and nearby wagons of country-killed beef or other meats ‘to which the buzzing insects are also giving atten- tion. Passing on to the north side of the Market Building they find loads of hay and straw, the ground beneath them uttered with like material and the ordure of the teams, lying from day to day unremoved. All this is un- pleasant, unsightly and unbefitting a public square in the centre of s. beau- tiful city. It may be difficult for any individual to point out the best rem- edy but the provincial government and City Council ought both to con- sider it and in mutual conference might decide what is best to be done. Since the last harvest the grain elevators at both Saint John and Halifax have handled more grain than ever before. This is in part ex- plained by the fact that at both these winter ports the elevators have been mostly idle. A member of the Halifax Harbor Board is quoud as saying, “_We have never handled much grain through Halifax, but this season we have hopes of exporting in the neighborhood of 5,000,000 bushels —c modest but’ important beginning." ~¢-_- The arrest of araombcoof Parlia- ment while the Home is in session snafu-every serimucrlminsiof- fenceisdnimprecedented occurrence Cauadafliisbasfalleniotheiot of _e youthful Liberal member for Prescott, Ontario.

That mean form of headache that begins over one eye and one side of the head, usually accompanied by ir- ritability, pain in the eye, heaviness. abdominal pain, nausea and vomit- ing, is called migraine. Although no definite cause has been found for it, it is thought generally that the liver, the failure oi the liver to do the work the patient requires of it, is really the cause of the trouble. Many of these patients have stud- ied this matter and find that one of their parents, likely _also a grand parent, was also subject to this mean form of headache. They have also found that if they have been under some emotional strain, have worked hard physically or mentally, that they will have an attack. ‘ Others can trace their attacks to cverindulgence in certain foods such as red meats, fish, goose, duck and turkey. " In the beginning of the attack if they take a strong purgative they find that the stack will pass away in a short time, whereas any delay in taking the purgative‘ and the at- tack lasts for days. I believe you wlil agree then that when the liver fails to take care of certain foods, owing to the nature of the foods themselves or to the nervous highstrurig, or overwrought condition of the patient, that these products. not being completely broken up to properly serve the purposes of the blood, are simply like so much foreign matter or poisons in the sy- stem. An individual with migraine then is practically in a. poisoned or semi- poisoned condition. Just as other poisons will cause changes in the brain so then does the poison in these individuals, and the liver is to blame because it fails to separatethem out from the blood. Dr. J. S. Diamond, studying a con- siderable-number of these cases, tells us that much benefit was derived by withdrawing all forms of meat, placing the patient on a strict milk and vegetable diet, overcoming the constipation which is always present, and the occasional use of bile salts. Undue, physical and mental strain must be -avoided. Following these simple and prac- tical suggestions should help the in- dividuals to avoid these one-sided sick‘ headaches. -".€i&b‘2"..'2¢r*;1 :-;~;1‘ . ‘ _ -The Public Forum This column Is open for tho discussion by touespondents of questions of interest.

Static has been exceptional- ly good, making the listener-in_to wonder whether the electrical ele- ments of the heavens were not in the war of the ages contending for su- premacy in the noise-making art- the Armageddon of disturbance. It is bad enough to be up against the weak and faint receptions drown- ed in this discordant conflict of na- ture, without the added inventions of thoughtless mankind in the form of whistling radio contrivances. This latter nuisance has increased to an intolerable stage. If we try to tune in on some important broad- casting station the high-clsss receiv. er is broadsided with a thunderous storm of discordant whistling, wail- ing and howling, fierce and continu- ous, as if all the mad dogs of the inferno were let loose and incited into a carnival of atrocious riot. I am told that this whistling is the product of imperfect home-made, or cheap receivers-the made to sell kind-and that. in some cases at least. the owners oi these nuisances do not suffer from the howlings of their own machines, and are not aware of the imposition they visit upon their neighbort. But by this disturbance a very large number cf expensive, high- grade machines, those most sensitive tcsir disturbance. are being made useless to those owners whose many thousands ofvdollarsof inveehnentp sent. radio rdceptlcnjn the city is almost impclfble, because of the sat- calling and was unearthly looming of those machines. , It has been said that these mn- lers can be located, and by Dcmhf- icnfiflllatioifl. waded out- ‘no from a doctor's wife who had lived The iDewcdy Of Ghosts ilrom the Genetic, Iontreatl ATI-fi» The appearance of an authenticat- ed ghost in an English village once more is a sign that must rejoice all who have at heart the romantic in- terests of our age, says the Adelaide Register. ‘lime was when the hum- bleet village boasted its spectre and there was even an instance. related in his incomparablememofrsby Mr. w. a. Yeats, when the whole or the roads leading to a certain village were closed to the public by their attendant phantoms. The degener- acy of the modern fancy, strongly manifested in the rarity of pclterge- ists, is not less marked in the status accorded nowadays to guests from the other side. The Cock Lane Ghost engaged the respectful atten- tion of so learned and wise a man as Dr. Johnson, and the Wesleys, if less grave with their family polterge- fst, preserved for "Old Jeffrey" a cer-t tain playful affection. Today there is, outside the fortunate village con- cerned, but a languid interest in the woman in white, and it is probable‘ thit if home reforming spirit were to attempt to found a Society for the Restoration of Ghostly Prestige, it would encounter, like many other great and needed movements, the lamentable indifference of a mater- ialistic age. It may be that ‘our own times are to blame for the decay of haunting. Even the bold Cock Lane Ghost, we may imagine, might hesi- tats before the prospect oi giving evidence before the Society of Psy- chical Research, and the Headless Horseman might find little in com- mon with the intelligently curious Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Old-fashioned spectree, used to the manners of a simpler and heartier day, find scant appreciation of the robust humor of appearing suddenly in s. winding sheet or rattling chains and displaying a skeleton. The world, they may think, is too much ‘with us. In Australia, particularly, ghosts have never flourished. There is probably something in the thin, dry, atmosphere that discourages materialization. South Australia can, it is true, contribute to’ folklore the Tantanoola tiger, but what is that to the pleasing variety of ghosts in an old Irish village, one of which, guarding buried treasure, looked "like a. flat iron," and another, a murder- ous mcnster, made a sound like the buzzing of a. bee? Mr. W. B. Yeats, as a youthful supernaturalist, was once able, at an evening party, to make the magnificent boast, "Five out of every six people have seen a ghost." An orthodox Catholic and scientist replied defiantly, “Well, I will ask everybody here." The first answer came from a man who had heard a voice he believed to be that of his dead brother, and the second in a. haunted house and met a man with his throat cut, whose throat as he drifted along the garden walk "opened and closed like the mouth of a fish." A ird of the party could tell how, at the death of one of the MacManus brothers, well-known in Irish politics, a strange, hawklike bird was seen to fly through the open window and slight upon the breast of the dying man, where it looked into his eyes until death came, after which it flew out of the window. Indays when such simple faith is wamlng, it is pleasant to recall the great days of ghost lore. An out- standing fact about the "cases" re- corded of old is their connection with famous names. Genius wore proud- ly the extra laurel of a personal vis- itation. Putting aside the celebrat- ed experience of Swedenborg who was admittedly biased in favor of the spirit world. there is, for instance, the famous account in Victor Hugo's diary of the haunting by ominous numbers, the knocking on the wall, and the final announcement of the death of Charles. The genius of a celebrated Japanese artist was in- separebly connected with his spirit- ual peculiarities, for it is recorded in a paper preserved by the Royal Irish Academy. that his portrayal of animals was so remarkable that horses he had painted upon a temple wall, had slipped down after dark and trampled the ncighcrs” fields oi rice.‘ somebody had come into the teinple in the early morning, had been startled by a shower of water- inealiradiocalicealefeeioccn- tribute to the costyf this service.

George Sand in her youth dabbled in magic with the famous Madam Blavatsky, though. ll. the latter said, "neither knew anything at all" in those days. Madame Blev- ateky herself. who knew Balno. do Musset, and most of the other Euro- pean celebrities of her time. is de- scribed by Yeats ae “a sort of female Dr. Johnson, impressive to every men and woman who had tlielmelvu any richness." The homeliest ghost in history, and mcidentally the best attested in the records of the Society for Psycbical Research. is, of course, the Wesley Poltergeist. John Wesley was a boy of about nine years old when the peaceful rectory of his father became the scene of extraordinary perform- ances by the lively phantom or imp afterwards known to the girls of the family as “Old Jeffrey." The offic- ial record of these happenings con- _sists of letters written to Samuel Wesley (John's elder brother) by his ‘mother and two sisters, the diary of ,the Rev. Wesley (his father). and accounts written long afterwards of conversations held at that time. The facts, abundantly supported, are thqt for nearly six months, from Decem- ber, 1716, to April, I717, the rectory was enlivened with mysterious noises, "P! on doors and walls, thumps be- neath the floor. the smash of broken y, the rattle of iron chains, $110 1111810 of fellifli coins. the tread of unseen feet. In the Wesley fam- ily the ghost appears to have met its match. The girls of the hon“. hold were amused, Mrs. Wesley judg. ed it from a. practical standpoint, and the rector, becoming indignant, evinced a strong desire to comp to close quarters with the ghpgt and thump it. 0n one occasion, annoy- ed by the way it disturbed his inno- cent children in their sleep, the rev- erend gentleman challenged ‘iold JBUPEY" flfmeet him in his study, but when he repaired majestically thither, he found the door held against him. It was discovered that the ghost had pronounced political views, and kicked the floors particu- larly hlfd when thfi prayer fur GWYBe I. was said: but Mr. Wesley prayed louder than ever.
