AN OPPORTUNITY

By the lamented death of Hon. J. l-i. Sinclair a vacancy occurs on the Railway Board of Directors. Here is an opportunity to give Prince Edward island with its “solid" Liberal a measure of Justice, a measure denied the Railway Board was organized.

There are as capable men for this position in Prince Edward Island as there are in any province in Can- ' ada and some of them are Liberals who have stood by their party un- swervingly through its dark audits bright days, through its failures and its There doubtless claimants among our Liberal friends here, men whose claims ntay or may not be suffic- ently strong to carry them t-o the coveted position. There is one class, however, whose claims we seldom see or hear pressed, a class which individually and col- lectively has done more

We refer, to our journ- alists, to the men who in every province have been instrumental in placing others in honorable and lucrative positions. who have sol- dom, if ever, pressed their JWD claims and whose claims for prefer- _ment have too often been forgotten even by those who have "climbed i0 blsber things" by the aid of their limrty newspaper. ‘

LAPSED INSURANCE

it has been observed quite fre- quently that property which has carried insurance for many years has been destroyed by fire almost immediately after the policy has been allowed to lapse either through neglect, carelessness or false economy. So frequently has of superstition has evolved from it. Apart altogether from the idea tha-t uninsured property is more l-iable to destruction than the pro- perty which carries its insurance from year to year, there is a plain and obvious lesson in the coincid- ence of destruction following clos- ely on the heels of a lapsed policy. insurance is a necessary precaution. l-t may be costly, the premiums paid year by year may be absol- utely lost except for tho sense of security and, in fact, the cost of in- surance is the price willingly paid for that sense of security. When a building is burned or a ship lost or a life upon which a family is dependent passes out, the insur- ance, the cost of which may have been considered a hardship, makes at least partial compensation for the lose. The insured, be it pro- perty or life, pays for the sense of security and it is a necessary part

of the cost of living. l This is not a homily on the wis- dom of carrying insurance either on lifo or properity. it is rather a l minde of the folly of relaxing ‘Y u: Just as

At pre- sent 1b.“!!! to be intended to com- plete the bill and have it Deloed be- fore prorogetion. but this is by no means carton-because from whet has cropped out the bill is likely to produce a long debate and the hot season at Ottawa is near at hand. The session is now well on in its fourth month and members want to go home. Reference was made some days ago iq. this column to the rumored intention of the of the Government to follow up the Redistribution _biil with o. bill to brklg in the Alternative Vote, and make these two measures mechan- ical aids toward winning the next election.

The Alternative Vote would be vegorously opposed by the Con- servative Opposition and might lead to a. prolonged debate as .a contentious measure. For this re- ason it is possible that both bills may be left over till next session. Whether one or both are Dushed through now seems to be largely n lnattcr of time and temperature. There in no question as to the ability of the Liberal Progressive combination to pass both measures. even if the Redistribution is made a gerrymnndcr. And the Senate would, an in duty bound, pass them also as the Red Chamber cour- tlousiy declines to interfere with the decision of the Commons in regard to the boundaries of con- stituencies or the methods of vot- ing.

It ie only In five provinces that and readjustment ofth e boundar- lea of constituencies are absolutely required at the present time. These are the four provinces beyond the Lakes, in which the representation will he increased and in Nova Scotla where it must be reduced. Still there are reasons for mak- ing some changes, say in Ontario and Quebec, where the unequal growth of population as between cities and counties makes it dosh‘- bale to give a few more members to the cities. The abolition of two- mernber stltuencies as proposed seems to be a desirable change.

It traneplree that In 02 out of 82 tidings in. Ontario changes are

arles, although the number of members to be elected is unchang- ed. Ontario is difficult ground at present for both Liberal and Pro- gressives. Botb those parties suff- ered crushing defeats in. the pro- vincial election of last year and the Robb tariff has added. nothing to the popularity of the King Government in. the hitherto pro- tected industriai centres of the big province. Hence the resort by the Government to such machinery as the Gerrymander and the Alter- native Vote. Party gains from such contrivancea are not, likely to amount to much. 1t. discredits a party to resort to unfair measures in elections and is generally regard- ed as a confession of weakness. it also arouses resentment among fair-minded eiectona.

A pathetic interest will be arous- ed in the minds of older readerg by Mr. E. R. Cameron's narrative of the last meeting between Sir Louis Davies and Hon. Edward Blake as related in Saturday's Guardian. Those were sad and mournful word; of the dying statesman who had in his day few peers in Canada. A great Canadian was Edward Blake, splendidly endowed intellec- tually and in his power; of eloquent expression. the soul of rectitude, honor and patriotism, and yet he could any at the last. "Davies, there ls but one word l desire carved upon my tomb: it is, ‘Misunderstood.’ " Edward Blake was doubtless greatly mirunde stood in hie life time, but this i; o common lot to those rare apirite who attain to high intellectual and moral altitudes.

WHY THE WARNINI-

A patient once said to his physic- “n "Why do you warn. many ‘of your patients about overealifll- Surely the stomach. liver, intestin- ns, and the other organs of diges- tion are all the better for workins. because they get so much to do, it must actually strengthen them."

The physician said.

“l advise my patients to refrain from overeating for a number of reasons. if they are young l want to prevent attacks of indigestion with the consequent pain.

if they are in their young man- hood or womanhood. to prevent the above troubles and to prevent over- weight.

in middle age and older people. because there is so much excuse waste that the blood actually carries some of it to the walls of the arteries. which becoming slightly inflamed, lose some of their elastic tissue. This elastic tissue is replaced by fibrous tissue, and the bessel becomes hard in- stead of soft and yielding. This menus actual "age" to you, because your arteries tell age.

But there is one real big reason that l don’t tell them about, be» cause they wouldn't believe it, if l did tcll them.

Thu more a man eats, the lees be wants to work or exercise.

‘Pills is so truc that he'd only get mad if it were pointed out to him.

You see the pointi’. .

The’ very act of taking on. board more food than you need means that you are going to feel a _ hit sluggish for a considerable time after nleals. '

(Rest for a short time meals is quite all right).

This sluggishnms in itself means lhat you'll have no desire to do manual work, or take any exercise. V Further. as you grow heavier. every little bit of exertion means more effort on your part than that of a slighter person, and so you save yourself all you can.

Every move ls an effort. and so you refuse to move. -

Now one of the joys of life is eating. lf your food doesn't look or taste good to you, there's some- thing wrong with you, that's all.

it’; a sign of health toghave a good appetite and to be able to en- joy everything that is placed on the table.

"But Nature expected you, with your good appetite, to use up that food by exercise. ~_

The only way any development comes is by use. Your muscles will get no development unless they are used.

And so when a healthy fellow like you eats a great quantity of food. and your muscular system is not worked to use up the food. then the food is deposited in the form of fat in, and around all the tissues and organs of the body.

i wouldn't mind a fellow eating big meals if he would build them inio muscle by exercising or work- lug outdoors. l know he will not do the work so that's why I warn him of the dangers of overeating."
