™ surviving brother of the late King Ed-
JfjL ward. He is sixty years of age, a field
s marshal in tho British army and was
a personal aid decamp to the late
king, who desired that he receive hia
present appointment. This is not his
first trip to Canada, as he served in
the Fenian raid of 1870. He is grand master of the Free Masons of England.
Besides the title by which he is commonly known he is the Earl of Sussex,
a prince of the United Kingdom and of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, and duke of
Saxony. His wife was Princess Louisa Margaret of Prussia.
Various reports have been current from time to time, particularly from
Canadian sources, that the duke of Connaught would not be the next gover
nor general of Canada, although on the original announcement of his appoint
ment. shortly after the death of King Edward, it was officially stated that it
had been the wish of the late king that the duke of Connaught, his brother,
should goto Canada as governor general.

children between the ages of IV£ and
3 years, but older children and adults
are not immune. Although the death
rate is not so high as in cerebrospinal meningitis, the train of permanent
deformities which follow infantile paralysis makes the disease fully as much
dreaded. Only about four or five per cent, of those attacked Buccumb, but
fully 80 per cent, of the cases result in permanent paralysis.
Infantile paralysis is a comparatively new disease. Its symptoms have
been described in medical literature for about 25 years, but only In the last
four years, since the epidemic of 1907, has it been brought strongly to the
attention of the profession in America.

SHIRE HORSE ESSENTIALLY
ENGLISH FARMERS' OWN
Animal Has Improved Vastly In Recent Years, In Uniformity
of Type, in Fiet, Action, Pasterns and
Quality of Hair and Bone.

English Shire Mare and Colt.
(By G. T. BARROWS, England.)
The Shire horse is essentially the
English farmer's own. Across the
border the Clydesdale holds sway. It
is flattering to the English breeder to
know that America and Canada are
now taking more Shires than they
have ever done before.
England today is being constantly
scoured by American buyers for the
right kind of Shire horses.
The English Shire horse has im
proved vastly of recent years, in uni
formity of type, in feet, action and
has vastly better pasterns and quality
of hair and bone.
The farmer's brood mare—the rent
payer—is a real feminine type, name
ly, neither of the gelding or the stal
lion appearance. She is always mated
to a stallion of great masculinity, pos
sessing good, wide, strong feet," and is
naturally a free mover, with flat,
sound bone, of strong consittutlon and
as big as possible.
In the large studs the greatest care
Is taken over the matter of suitable
stallions selected. Very few traveling
stallions are to be found without a
veterinary surgeon's certificate of
soundness.
If anything, some of the farmers
who have found breeding a rapid
means of acquiring wealth, are In
HORSE SHOEING
IS SCIENCE
Mo Man Is Fully Xciulppsd for
Task Unless He Understands
Anotorny of Animal's Foot-
Advance Being Made.
By WM. J. KELLY.
Formerly the ordinary blacksmith,
who knew very little about the under
lying principles that should govern
horse shoeing, was called upon to shoe
horses. As a result very much of the
work done was inferior and such work
re-acted in many instances against
the usefulness of the horse that was
thus shod.
The advance that has been made In
this branch of blacksmithing during
recent years, has been very great.
The work of shooing horses is so
variable In its requirements that no
small degree of skill is required on
the part of those engaged in the busi
ness.
It would perhaps be correct to say
that no horse shoer Is fully equipped
for his work who does not understand
considerable about the anatomy of the
horse's foot. He should also be able
to detect defects in the animal's loco
motion and should know how to shoe

clined to get quality at the expense of
weight and substance. Shows are the
best advertisement that the English
tenant-farmer has for getting rid of
his wares to the landlord or the rich
breeder.
Shows in an English summer are as
plentiful as sparrows. They are held
upon the slightest provocation, where
two or three horse breeders are gath
ered together.
One of the most gratifying features
of the Shire horse breeding in the old
country, is that the rich man settles
in the legality, or suddenly becomes
prominent as a breeder of first-class
animals. He spends no end of money
on buying and maturing.
These often fall into the hands of
the farmer cheaply, and very often
the farmer sells back their offspring
at considerable prices.
Shire service is cheap in England,
when one considers the enormous out#,
lay of some of the breeu. *, and the
tenant farmer, or the farmer whose
land is only rented, has all the bene
fits of his rich proprietor's patronage.
The old country may have old
fashioned ways, but the farmer
knows when he Is well off and he
knows that to raise Shire horses suc
cessfully is to have a bank balance
and to have no haunting fears from
a disastrous season.

arising from these defects will be less
ened or overcome entirely.
Neighborhood Exchanges.
The difficulty of exchanging tools
and labor with neighbors is in the
personality. Some men will expect
to use borrowed tools all through the
favorable weather and then return
them in a damaged condition too late
to be of much use to the owner. In
borrowing labor this kind of neighbor
will work the hired man half to death
and then in returning the labor spend
half his time telling stories. In ex
changing labor or anything else pick
out a farmer who will practice the
golden rule.
New Mint Region.
Peppermint growers of New York
and Michigan will meet competition
from the reclaimed lands of Louisiana.
A distillation plant is also in opera
tion. A party of expert agriculturists
recently inspecting the region were
convinced that the crop can be grown
in limited quantities at a good profit.
Peppermint oil was imported Into the
United States during the fiscal year
to the extent of 1,238 pounds, worth
$G,416, while the exports of American
peppermint oil amounted to 161,811
pounds, worth $288,318.

CURED HER BABY OF ECZEMA
"I can't tell in words how happy the
word 'Cuticura' sounds to me, for it
cured my baby of itching, torturing
eczema. It first came when she wa3
between three and four weeks old,
appearing on her head. I used every
thing imaginable and had one doc
tor's bill after another, but nothing
cured it. Then the eczema broke out
so badly behind her ear that I really
thought her ear would come off. For
months I doctored it but to no avail.
Then it began at her nose and her
eyes were nothing but sores. I had to
keep her in a dark room for two
weeks. The doctor did no good, so I
stopped him coming.
"For about two weeks I had used
Cuticura Soap for her every day,
then I got a box of Cuticura Ointment
and began to use that. In a week
there was a marked improvement. In
all I used two cakes of Cuticura Soap
and one box of Cuticura Ointment and
my baby was cured of the sores. This
was last November; now her hair is
growing out nicely and she has not a
scar on her. I can not praise Cuti
cura enough, I can take my child any
where and people are amazed to see
her without a sore. From the time
she was four weeks old until she was
three years she was never without the
terrible eruption, but now, thanks to
Cuticura, I have a well child." (Sign

Runs on the Bank of England.
Even the Bank of England has not
been eniirely free from runs nor from
the necessity of saving Itself by
strategy. In 1745, for instance, it was
forced to employ agents to present
notes, which were paid as slowly as
possible in sixpences, the cash being
immediately brought in by another
door and paid in again, while anxious
holders of notes vainly tried to se
cure attention. In 1825 too only the
accidental discovery of 700,000 £1
notes saved the bank from stopping
payment.—London Chronicle.
