A man’s success in life is usually in proporuon to his confidence. in hi nselt and the energy and persistence with which he pursues his aim. In

| this competing age, there is little hope

for the man who does not thoroughly : believe in himselt. The man who can | be easily discouraged or turned aside | from his purpose, the man who has no } iron in his blood, wiil never win. Haif } the giant's strength isin the convic-

tion that he hisa giant. The strength |} of a muscle is enhanced a hundred- power. The same muscle, when removed from giant’s

the mighty will, can sustain but a trac- tion of the weight it did a moment be- fore it was disconnected. If you would succeed up -to the limits of your possibilities, hold constantly to the belief that you are suceessfully or- ganized, and that you will be success- ful, no matter what opposes. Never allow a shadew of doubt toenter your mind but that the Creator intended you to win in life’s battle. Regard every suggestion that your life mav be a failure, that you are not made like those who succeed, and that suc- cess is not for you, asa traitor, and expel it from your mind as you would a thief from your house. Oh, what miracles confidence has wrought! What impossible deeds it has helped to perform! It took Napoleon over the Alps in midwinter, it took Farra- gut and Dewey past the cannons, tor- pedoes and mines of the enemy; it led Nelson and Grant to victory; it has been the great tonic in the world of discovery, invention and art; it has helped to winthe thousand triumphs in war and science which were deemed

The Times, in an editorial dealing with the organization of the new Cab inet, speaks strongly in favor of recon- Struction, “Some changes are imper ative,” it says, ‘owing to the retirement of Mr. Goschen and the coming retire- ment of Earl Codogan; but the public will not be satisfied with a mere trans- portation of two or three officials. there is a growing opinion that tresh blood is needed.” ‘That Mr. Cham- berlain would not leave the Colonial Office for either the War or Admiralty

“In the Province of Prince Edward Island, if any person de- sires to vote, whose right to vote is objected to on the ground of want of qualification, and if a candidate or any agent of a can- didate or (in the absence of such agent) any elector acting in the interest of a candidate, so objects in the presence of the elector, the deputy returning offi- cre in addition to placing his initials on the back of the ballot

EMERGENCY RATIONS.

FAIL IN THE EMERGENCY.

In a letterto a friend in Ottawa Lieut. E. W. B. Morrison writes of the emergency food as follows :—‘It was very sad about young Borden; he was

ta gallant officer, and would have been

mentioned in despatches if he had lived. As you say, the event will soften the feeling against the Minister on the emergency ration scandal, but it was a disgraceful thing for all that. To give a soldier a useless emergency ration is lixe throwing a useless life- preserver toa sinking man. ‘The ra-

tion is never opened, except in cases of great extremity, such as the 25th of July, when he made a forced march _ of 21 miles to Balmoral in bitter cold. We had started before daylight with | hardly any breakfast, and got in at ‘dusk in a potr.ng cold rain. ( “The transport convoy got.mired in aspruit some miles out, and the whole army had nothing to eat except its emergency ration. We had none, as we had found the Canadian lot. was completely useless, and lett the boxes unpacked at De Aar. An officer and five men in our division died from ex- posure that night, and I don’t know

None of our battery died, but seven are in the hospital at Pretoria from the effects of that night. The whole ration, even to the box and label, was so cheap and nasty that we thought it had been given tothe contingent by some firm asa cheap ad. We never

Mr. Cook insists that he was offer- ei the seat at the price mentioned, and declares that he is in a position to prove his statement.

At first sight, it looks a little diffi- cult to reconcile the statements of the two gentlemen. But Sir Wilfrid’s admirers can reconcile them as easily as falling offa log It will be remem- bered that Sir Wilfrid also says that he never sent the Canadian Con- tingent to South Africa. The Premier may explain a little later on that he did not send the age>t to Mr. Cook, he only “permitted him to go.”—The Star.

English House of Commons.

A Canadian soldier whose letter i

printed in the Montreal Gazette re- ports that the Government's defence of its precious emergency rations ex- cited uncontrolable laughter in camp. The rations consisted of a dry, yellow, unpalatable protein powder and bore a notice to the effect that they were to be eaten with three or tour biscuits, or on four or five slices of bread! Ifa. beefsteak had been also recommended, thé comedy would have been com. plete. The only virtue the Canadian powder had was that it was so nasty that it lasted longer than the others. \s an emergency ration it could not be treated seriously; the boys regarded it asa huge joke. It is well that they were abie to take the humorous point of view; but the Canadian elector will probably net be so easily satisfied.

Women are vastly more patient than men, It is scarcely believable that a woman, suffering past all telling, can attend to business, and bend and stoop with a back whose ache is agony. And beyond all this she smiles as she bends and stoops about her customer. A man might swallow down an oath or keep back a groan, but his face would be like a thundercloud; and his voice scarcely disguise his irritation.

For women who suffer from backache, bearing-down pains, or other pains due to womanly diseases, there is no other med- icine equal to Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Pre- scription. It regulates the womanly functions, dries weakening drains, heais inflammation and ulceration and cures female weakness,

There ig no alcohol in " Favorite Pre- scription” and it is entirely free from opium, cocaine and all other narcotics. A vegetable preparation, it cannot dis~ agree with the weakest condition,

"J wish to thank you for the good

your medi- cines have done me,” writes Mrs. Mae Brown, of Canton, Fulton Co., Ills. “I was troubled with female weakness and doctor- ed with several different doc- tors. They did not seem to help me; indeed, I got worse all the time. I had ul- cer ation and displacement
