These are some of the conditions under the Liberal regime which may be set, by way of contrast, against the stricter and more sat- isfactory administration of justice in the Province today.

NEW DOMESTIC LOANS Ill-iii“ 1°

An issue of $80,000,000 of Domin- ion Government bonds will be made within a few days for purposes which have been outlined already by the Minister of Finance. These in- clude payment, of $34,449,950 out- standing on account of the old Vic- tory Inan and maturing Novem- ber 1, and other federal financing for railway and general purposes. It is to be noted in this regard, saw the Montreal Gazette, that in pro- viding directly for the financial re- quirements of the Canadian Nation- al Iyvtcm the Government is giving effect at once to one O1 the recom- menda"ons of the Royal Commis- sion on transportation. The announced total of the new issue is somewhat less than hafi been pre- dicted and expected. 1t represents, still, a. large sum of money but well within the capacity of the Canadian public to absorb. There is no lack of money in the country, the difficulty being rather the nanowness of the field in which it can be profitably and safely employed, and a. national bond issue should prove attractive 0o the investor from Emy points of view.

we have been reminded that one swallow does not make a summer: but, notes the Moneton Transcript, (Liberal), when the swallows continue to come there are grounds for the belief that summer is on the way, and when reports of business im- provement persist we are forced to the conclusion, that the long awaited change in the economic season is approachfng. Continuing the Transcript says:

"An increase in both imports and exports in Canada's trade with Great Britain would not necessarily re- flect an improvement in general conditions, if it merely meant that the volume of intra-Empre trade was being enhanced at the expense of other trade, desirable as that might be. Figures for

than the United states, which in- dicates a most encouraging tend- ency.

“There can be no over-night change from conditions which have made themselves felt during the last three years in a condition of gen- emf prosperity. For many people the coming winter may be the hard- est yet experienced, but the beret, now widely entertained, that the back of the depression has been broken and that the general trend is upward will furnish cheer and encouragelnent in the struggle which still must be encountered before the goal of good times again reached."

IIEARTS 1N NARROW AND WIDE INDIVIDUALS

I frequently speak of the 8Y9)“ hound and the bull-dog type of build in men. The greyhound tyre is the tall slender individual and the bull-dog type is thick set with long body, and legs a. little shorter than the average for other indivi- duals who are not of the PYOIIWB" ced greyhound or bull-dog type.

In our student days we were taught to map out on the chest the underlying heart by means of the type of sound caused by striking the chest with the fingers‘ or a litlc hammerlike instrument. We thus learned what were the normal limits of the heart under the breast bone and ribs. Thus if a heart were smaller or larger than what was considered normal a. note was made of it. > However now that physicians are considering the different types of build it has been found that in persons of average build, 90 per cent of hearts are within normal limits. Among those of slender build the width of the heart is be- low minus 10 per cent of the nor- mui in l2 per cent of the cases. Among those of thick set build the width or diameter of the heart is above plus 1'70 per cent in 11 per cent of the cases.

In other words the fact that in a. certain percentage of the,slcnder the heart is narrower than normal, and wider in the thickset must now be remembered. ' Another interesting point brought out by Drs. H. A. Trcadgold and H. L. Burton, Great Britain, was the large number of abnormally small hearts (23 per cent) among cases where the strength of the heart was below normal in striking contrast to the very small proportion (4 per cent) of hearts below normal in strength in those who were thick- set.

While there may be fewer eases of high blood pressure among those of slender build, nevertheless inef- ficient or hearts below normal in fstrength are commonest in those of slender build.

What can you do about your heart and the strengthening of it if you or your youngster, are of slender build?

For yourself a brisk walk daily will actually strengthen your heart, and render you less liable to a “wcak" heart. ' For your youngster, plenty of play outdoors, particularly play that involves leg work or running. Leg exercises, by making the heart pump the blood to the large musc- les of the legs, gradually and safely increase the power of the heart.

Pursuing A The Beetle

(Montreal star)

Proofs are mounting up in al- most, embarrassing profusion that Britain is determined to discharge every obligation she undertook in the Ottawa agreements without any avoidable delay. 'I'h,e latest; is the arrival in New Brunswick of Dr. J. Prior, entomological adviser to the British Minister of Agriculture, who has come to Canada to inves- tigate the Colorado beetle scare and to find out for himself if that elusive bug is in reality the menace to British agriculture that it is al- leged to be by British agricultural authorities.

It will be recalled that as the result of rumors that this particu- lar beetle had been found in sever- al shipments of potatoes from the Maritime Provinces to Great Bri- tain, an embargo was placed upon

all potato imports by the British

Government several years ago.

Despite repeated efforts of the Ca-

nadian potato growers, supported

by the most convincing evidence,

this embargo has been maintained

up to the present. Potato growing

was a flourishing industry in the

East when the embargo was appli-

ed. It has dwindled seriously since

then, though the Maritime Pro-

vince farmers have stuck to their
