It has become a valuable and suitable adjunct to the agricul- tural industry and some of our eastern farmers have been able to make more from it than from their regular line of work. To Charles Dalton probably more than to an)’ other man is due this remarkable development. Apart from this, the late Lieut.

He typified their spirit to a high degree, and in every respect was a man of whom they had every right to be proud. At the age of 83 years he passes on to be remembered not only because of what he made of himself, but as the founder of an industry which has contributed vast- ly to the prosperity of many sec- tions in the Maritime Provinces."

Of the late Lieutenant Governor's achievement in fox breeding the Halifax Chronicle says: “It was from this that the fox venture grew, which brought Prince Edward Is- land into world-wide pi mlnence and was the foundation of his for- tune. . . . During the war he do- nated a fully equipped motor ambul- ance to the Canadian government, established the Dalton Sanntoriurn on ‘The Island’, an institution which was later abandoned and its equip- ment taken over by fire hospitals. Dalton Hall in connection with St Dunstans was his gift and he built a school in his native parish and other benefactions perpetuate his name." ,

Such deserved tributes speak for themselves. The show that not only in this Province, but throughout Canada, there is a feeling of gen- eral loss and regret at the passing

Now all cases of sinusitis are not due to foods or other substances. but almost all cases can be helped by avoiding certain foods and ca:- tain substances floating in the air. Dr, H. B.
