THE TIME TO $TRIKE

We note that amid the shouting about surpluses, appropriations for railway lines, reduction of taxation and other blessings. present and irrespective. there has not been a dollar appropriated for the stand- ardization of the Eastern Prince Edward island lines. Nor does it appear that any one of our “solid four" has lifted up his voice in pro- test against the neglect. Appro- priations have been voted for sev- eral wharves and breakwuters in different parts of the province. some of which had been made he- roro but now-r used and are new rc-voted for the benefit of certain

Now that Mr. J. J.

It would be less expensive to wait. upon him while he is amongst us than to send a delegation to Ot- tawa and Iwe have seen delegations aunt l0 Ottawa on less important missions.

NOTES BY THE. WAY.

-Slr Lomer Gouin returned to Ottawa on Thproday last, called upon Premier King, Hon. Mr. Lapolnte, his successor in the office of Minister of Justice and others of his late colleagues and resumed hI-s seat, Yo. the House of Commons. Sir Lomer is quite in. time to hear the entire Budget debate and noth- lug further has at this writing transpired as to his personal st- tltxie toward the recent tariff chang es. A recent Ottawa despatch from u reliable source intimates that very fcw Liberals or Progress- ives will vote against any of the proposed tariff changes.

The Conservative Opposition on the contrary, are expected to vote almost as one man, against those clauses which ars justly viewed as an attack upon Canadian in- d-ustry. The combined Liberal and Progressive vote will, under the circumstances be expected to give a very large majority in favor of the Government. This by no means dlslieartens the followers of Mr. Melghen who are confident that the country is with them. They re- call as a historic parallel that when Sir John Macdonald introduc- cd his National Policy in 1877 as the leader of a small Opposition in a House “overwhéllmlngly Liberal, his support was very small, but in

the following year he and his policy of protection swept the country with a tremendous

majority at a general election.

HON L. 0. David recalled those old times in a speech in the Senate the other day. The venerable Liber- al Senator, now over eighty years of ago, has played a prominent part in public affairs since Confedera- tion. He was a friend of Mackenzie 81nd Blake and a confidential advis- er of Lanrler: In his recent speech he told of Premier Mackenzie ank- ing him shortly before the election of 1878, what he thought of the Liberal Government's chances? His answer was, "Well, you will be

You occasionally find that you can't sleep and wonder inst what is the cause thereof. Veryoften you can trace it to some business pro- position that is on your mind. Possibly some family worry.

it might be due to drinking some strong tea or coffee before retiring. When you can trace it definitely in. this way there is of course noth- ing to do but put up with it for the time being, and try to be more care- ful thereafter.

However, you may perhaps find

that you are getting the habit of wakefulness, and than it may be- gin to be a source of real worfy to you. . Now as a matter of fact moat people get more sleep than they actually need, and many get more sleep than they think they got.

There can he no question but that the continuous loss of sleep is a serious matter, because it means that with the brain active, and the body more or less active, that the fatigue products are not thrown. out of the system, -.and therefore such a one is bound to ha tired all the time. and utterly unfit for mental of physical effort.

The big point to remember ls that if you go to bed at ten o'clock, and wake up at five or slx, you've already had all the. sleep you need. Perhaps after wak-lng at. five, you doze oft‘ a number of times, and about the time you should get ill). you are quite drowsy.

This gives you the impression that you have lost some needed sleep, because you have the feeling that just as long as you are in bed you should be sleeping.

In a former article I said that many people could not sleep be- cause they were afraid they oould

not sloop, and this very fear of what sleeplessncss would do to tilom mentally and physically, was keeping them from sleeping. Another thing for you to re-

member is that Nature generally tells you when you need anything. Do without food for a day or two and your zippetite will come back. Do without sleep for a day or two and your sleep will come naturally. in the case of eating if you decide not to eat and just drift along without food, your appetite comes back because you've stopped thinking abotft fond. k With sleep however, you think about it, worry about it, try to coax

badly beaten unless you give us a protective tariff." Later he handed Mr. Mackenzie a letter giving cu- tended reasons for his opinions. The latter read it in his presence and said," Your letter is not en- couraging, and your prophecy really alarms me, but what can l do? All my people, the members for Ontario, say they must go to the country with the tariff as it is."

Premier Mackonziie went down to defeat for refusing the wise counsel to adopt protection. Sir Wilfrid Laurler met a crushing de- feat when he proposed in 1911 to throw down the protective policy . which Canada had prospered under for 32 years and adopt Reciprocity. The King Government is now abandoning protection to please the free traders 0f the West. The tariff it proposes wil abundantly please - his American friends. it is s tariff that threatens Canadian industry and Canadian workers. It menaces the industrial future of the Dom- inion. Politically it is all a huge blunder, a repetition of the mis- take of Mackenzie in 1878 and of Laurler in,1911.

While depioring the Injury that Canada must suffer from the Robb tariff, tho Conservative party wol- comes the political issue. "Canada for Canadians" ls a otter slogan tham “Canada for the Americans!" it ls a cause that has already won slx general elections in the Domin- ion, and saved it from becoming "a more adjunct of the United States.“ Those were the words of ex-Pre- sldent Taft. Once more let the forces be set in battle array. Shall the implements of production for Canadian workeril in the field, the miiie, the forest and the factory be made in Canada or in the States‘! Shall we go back to tho time when ‘fthero was~no smith in all the land of lsreélf" '

"Now there was no smith found

throughout all the land of Israel: for the Phlllstlnes said. Lest the

Hebrews make their swords or spears; but all the Israelites wen-t down to the Phliistlnes to sharpen every man his spear and his conifer and his axe and his rnattock." The Israelites ‘had be- fore made their own swords, epea

and the implements of husband

and handicraft, now they were HON allowed to make-or to ‘have swords. or spears, or to make, or even, sharpen their. own fanning tools and

it, and it is so much in your mind lthat it simply keeps you awake.

l Go to your physician, Have him go over you and question you. If there is no physical ailment caus- ing your sleeplessness go home and forget about it. '

Every person has occasional uer- iods of sleepleasness during his _llfctlme.

The suggestions given ‘should not be forgotten. , ~ Lie down as if completely ex- hausted with arms and legs slight- ly heat.

Breathe naturally and deeply.

Before retiring perhaps some light exercise, a bowl of hot milk.

Silk Hats Return - = Worn More J auntily

SILK hats are coming hack. Bat

with a difference. A serious dif- ference, too, to the plain. plod- ding fellow who plants his feet. squarely on -the Kroand; his ha!

squarely on his head. For the silk hat, say those who follow tho subtler shades of changing modes. may now be worn. a little on one oar, at a launty angle. Even the Prince of Wales, approval of the wearing of a high hat with‘ a short coat does not entirely re- concile older arbiters of fashion to this seeming informality. To these a less decorous manner of wearing the sacred black “lld" will appear an added sacnilege. But squarely planted or Jlauntiiy tilted, the silk hat which has marked the Bentle- man for a0 many generations is slowly regaining lost favon-says the New York Times.

Said one maker of hats for men: “The war has had much to do with the informality of men's clothes. During those years when a large proportion of the world was in- unlforrn it was considered in- appropriate to dress up. Now all that is changed, and the growing popularity of the silk hat shows a renewed interest in more formal dressing." And where a predilec- tion for informality still lingers, he added, it is perfectly proper even according to the most fastid- ious ‘to wear a Tuxedo with a high silk hat.

Few Silk Hat Makers.

f Th-ls man would not concede that the silk hat was either un- comfortable or unbecoming. Pro- perly made, it was light in weight

mere man's appearance. On the wave of this suggested popularity of the silk topper comes the ques- tion ofa. sufficient amount of crafts men to make the chief d'oeuvre of battens plush and silk. Since 1845, when handworkets in 1111B country numbered 600, the clan has diminished until, according to one of the oldest members, there are but forty-six silk-hat makers left in, New York City and fewer than a hundred in ‘the United Stat- es. “Young men don't want to learn the trade to-day," said Will- lam Jones, a skilled artisan in silk- hat mamas. employed by a “hot atelier" in Eighth Avenue. “There

them, and it takes too long to learn tile flue polnts." Mr. Jones, did ls what it amounts to. A delicate |painstaking craft, it Wmlld 868m- Ifrom -the amount of careful hand- ‘work that Jones and his old assist- mtg were putting on the muslin models, which they were slowly shellacking, on the tables.

The Craft of Old Englishmen.

It -is the craft of old men—old Englishmen, apparently. Jones spent seven years learning the trade in Manchester. England. where he was born. He the-n went to the town’of Denton, slx mllos distant, famous for its hat factor- ies, and here he} perfected his art. until he came to America, nearly -fliity years ago. Yes, said the old artisan, his co-workers were all English, and most of the men who still followed the trade learned it in Great Britain. There was no reason, he said, why the young fellows should not learn to do the work as well as the older genera- tion. Only, "they are in such a hurry to make money. They go to the machines.“ There was ' no crashing machinery turning out felt headgear at 100 dozen per day here in this quiet atelier. There was only the intelligent lab- or of a half dozen pairs of hands fitting imported muslin over the latest ,wooden molds, shellscklng the musllnvand setting it aside to dry, pending the time when fine holder's plush from France would be laid on the outside of the crown and silk on the brim, and the hot iron agaln applied by a master hand. Then the silk mpper is pass- pd on for feminine fingers to add lining and hand-plainly considered a woman's job by the \.crsft.smon who build with such minute at- tention to detail this important part of a gentleman's apparel.
