great favour. There is no doubt that daylight saving in the Summer months is a boon to that portion of the pubâ€" lie who indulge in sports of any kind, but in the majority of communities there is quite a pronounced sentiment against the practiceâ€"of putting the clock ahead an hour, upsetting the routine of young children and strainâ€" ing the nerves of their mothers. Then again, the lack of uniformity in the daylight saving scheme makes conâ€" siderable inconvenience for the. traâ€" velling public, accounting for much of the disfavour in which the proposal is regarded."" After being the order of the day cduring part of the war time, daylight saving has been generally sidetracked as a fad that has little to commend it. â€" Occasionally, however, it bobs up again like the cork from a pickle bottle through into Lake Opeongo. A recent editorial note in The Sudâ€" bury Star says :â€" ‘‘Haileybury paper is moderately boosting the daylight saving idea for that town, and reports that the counâ€" cil does not accept the proposal with DAYLIGHT SAVING STILL HEARD FROM OCCASIONALLY The latest report"of a noteworthy copper find in this North comes from Boston Creek. On the Johnston proâ€" perty not far from the Boston Creek station, exploration is understood to has disclosed an interesting deposit of eopper ore. _ The deposit has a width of about six feet, it is said. It is generally believed that the develâ€" opment of the property will prove it to be a particularly promising one. The necessary work of development will be much facilitated by the fact that tlhie property is so close to the railway, and_accordingly there is no transportation problem to overcome.

Sufficient Ore Expected to be Demonâ€" strated Soon, Shareholders Told at Annual Meeting. The President, Mr. R. W . Leonard, pointed out that no dividend had been paid for the fiscal year ending Dec. 31st, for the same reason as had preâ€" vailed in 1925, namely, the heavy exâ€" penditures at the Coniaurum ‘\Imeq, and the active prospecting campaign carried on warranted the directors in conserving the funds to meet contingâ€" enci¢s. > The company now owned 61,275 per cent. of the capital stock of 1,000,000 shares of Conitaurum Mines, Limited. It was pointed out that exploration work had gone ahead rapidly at the Coniaurum Mine, and it was anticiâ€" pated that when the current year‘s work was further advanced sufficient ore would be disclosed to ensure the continuous operation of a 500â€"ton mill, which would be constructed if justified. a P * w ®% The total production of silver from the Coniagas Mines to Dec. 31 amountâ€" ed to 32,685,039 ounces, according to F.

FROM HALIFAX, NS by the R. M.S. ALAUNIA ANDANITA NEW DOME DIRECTOR GREAT FAITH IN THE MINE The new director of the Dome Mines, Mr. K. F. Segsworth, evidently has great fa‘th in the Dome‘s Porâ€" cupine property. He is in favour of a most aggressive exploration camâ€" paign at depth. In reference to the views of this new Dome director, The Toronto (GHlobe one day last week had the following:â€" ‘*Hope that Shareholders May Waken up Some Morning With a Mine in the Greenstones Similar to Others in Area. ‘*With reference to his appnintment as a director of Dome, Mr. Segsworth, declares that while thumn;:hly in acâ€" cord with the present management. he doegsfavour a most aggresive exâ€" ploration campaign at depth, to ascerâ€" tain the possibilities of the zone favyâ€" ouravle to gold deposition. . Luke many others Mr. Segsworth thinks it quite possible that exploration of the Dome up to date has not yielded more than may still be found if aggressive steps are takenâ€"to explore the likely eround. "I was pleased to learn at the meeting that the company are not yet committed to spending their reserves on properties other than the real Dome ground, as I have a great deal of faith, vet unshattered, in the strucâ€" tural and mineral formation with geology of the mine, and join the board in the hope that the shareholdâ€" ers may waken up some morning with a mine in the greentstones similar to other large producers in the immediâ€" ate neighborhood,"‘ said Mr. Segsâ€" worth, ""I have often felt with some good reason to believe, that the Dome sediments have been an added asset, which the other mines missed, and from which our shareholders have had so much to their benefit up to the present time with the real mine yet in the making."‘‘ Sometimes it seems as if the spirit of good sportsmanship was growing, and then along comes some incident like the publication last week of @ noâ€" tice offering a reward for information leading to the apprehension of the mean criminals who have been perâ€" sistently destroying property at Ball Park, Lake Ramsay, Sudbury district. sports would not destroy pubâ€" lie property. It is a particularly unâ€" sportsmanlike form of vandalism, and shows especially poor sportsmanship on the part of the petty perpetrators.

BRITISH EXHIBIT AT THE WORLD‘S POULTRY CONGRESS The World‘s Favorite Milk ‘Câ€"om GContznicd Cows" Produced in Canada iXE L) W ARNATION Milk could not be the largest selling brand of evaporated milk in the world did it not appeal to more people than any other brand. And it does. It appeals because of its wonderful smoothness and richness, its purity and uniformity. Carnation quality is tested and protected right from the cow to your pantry shelf. Carnation is the most completely useful milk you can buy. Use it undiluted in place of cream at oneâ€"third the cost of cream. Diluted, Carnation adds richness to all cocking and is superior for other milk uses. Carnation is pure, fresh milk â€"evaporated to double richness and kept safe by sterilization. Order several tins or a case of 48 tins from your grocer. CARNATION COCOA FUDGEâ€"Three cups granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons cocoa, 1 pinch salt, 344 cup Carnation Milk, 1 tablespoon butter, 1 teaspoon yanilla, 1 cup nut meats. Mix dry ingredients with Carnation Milk. Boil without stirring until candy makes a soft ball when tested in cold water. Add vanilla and butter. Set aside until cold. Then beat nuts in candy. Knead fudge like bread dough. Press down in buttered tins and mark in squares. The chilling and kneading of the fudge make it deliciously creamy. It never is grainy or too hard.

MacNair of New Milis, N.B., i one of the thousands who owe much to "Fruitâ€"aâ€"tives". Full of gratitude he writes the simple truth as follows: "I can honestly say that ‘EFruitâ€"aâ€"tives‘ are the best intestinal regulator I have ever used. Other remedics, and I have tried a great many, cause pain and gripâ€" ing, but ‘Fruitâ€"aâ€"tives‘ always act easily and effectively. I was inclined to be conâ€" stipated before, but now I am {fecling first rate, ..vcl most sincerely recormmend ‘Fruitâ€"aâ€"tives‘ to everyone." "Fruitâ€"aâ€"tives" is the sworn enemy of constipation. Made from the intensified juices of fresh fruits combined with tonâ€" ics, it is a natural medicine. It is not habit forming. Don‘t let constipation plague you. Get back the bloom of health, the sparkle in your eye, the feeling that life couldn‘t be better. Begin at once, with "Fruitâ€"aâ€" tives‘"â€"25c and 50c a box anywhereâ€"- every where. FINDS "* FRUITâ€"Aâ€"TIVES" BEST CORRECTIVE FOR CONSTIPATION Thursday, April 14th, 1927
