INTERESTING GOSSIP FROM THE QUEEN CITY. Toronto's Rsputatlon for Inlolsrano* Judge Mabt* Honored In Death Who Will Receive the Vacant Position* -Canadian Club Officers, *.. (W hve, nrranged for a weakly letter about Toronto affairi. which, we believe, will be of great Interest to many of our readers. These letters will be from the ffn of one of Canada's foremost Journa- lilts, a man who has covered some of tbe world's greatest bappuinngs and now op- copies a leading petition on one of the Toronto dailies.) Tbe intolerance of Toronto has been a il,i 11. i of discuKiiion before this, but never so forcefully as recently. "Toronto is the home of International hatred." declared Mr ; Justice Kiddell in a recent address. "Toronto, without eiception. is tho most Intolerant city in the world." eaid a speak- er at another mi'ciing. Tli<-e remarks do not apply particular- ly to Torouto's reputation for Pabliath ob- nervanee. and similar virtues, but to the f;-t that Toronto ii impatient of any opinion that does not agreo with Its own. It is this arrogance of opinion, which manifests Htvlf uuiong all clasves, which gives such bitternesK to Toronto contro- versies, whether it be on Habbath observ- ance, religious issues or merely politics. Perhaps wu wiil mellow with age. HONORED Mil. MABEE. Rurelv ha the dea'.h of ny Canadlnn culled forth snch of sorr.iw and eWem as hs that of J. P. Hnbev.

Tho filling of his position is the biggest pie<-<> of patronage the new government has had to deal with Hindi it came luto power. Conjecture us to what Mr. Bor- deii and Mr. Coc.li rams Minister of Kail- ways, would do began immediately Mr. I Mabee's death was announced. Some sur- mized thai D'Arcy S*oott. Vice-Chairman of the Board, might b promoted. He is a. pon of Hoiiator Scott of Ottawa, has shown considerable capacity for his work and comes of a family that often gets what i; goen after. Others guessed that one of the High Court Judges might be offered the position. The names of prom- inent members of the bar. such us, Wal- lace Nesbitt, K.C., I. F. Ilcllmuth, K.C.. and Mahlon K. Cowan. K.C.. were early mentioned. The rumor attached to the latter name was particularly interesting in view of the fact that lie has always been nn active Liberal, with a wide re- putation for forrefuliH'.sa and resource on the stump, coupled with tho report that, despite tins fact, he had ttrnng support from influential members of the Cabinet. Others thought that thu position should go partly as a reward for political scr- vices as well at for familiarity with rail- way matters, and In this connection the names were dlscuBbed of some of the for- mer asplrautB for the position of Minister of Railways, such an K. A. Lancaster, K.O., M.P. for I, i ne.. In: W. V. Maclean, M.P. for South York; A. E. Armstrong. M.P. for Hast Lambton: Arthur Meighcu, M.P. for Portage La Prai.-io. and 0. A. Magrath, former M.P. for Medicine Hat. Tho latter lias a wide knowled/ of the transporta- tion needs of the West, which loom so lurgo at present, though hu lacks the le- gal and judicial knowledge which has hitherto been regarded as a requiulte for thu position. It is interesting to note that when the name of H. L. Drayton, K.C., Corporation Counsel for Toronto, was mentioned it was pointed out that he is already draw- ing a salary of 814.000 a year, while the graduation Enisell did not return to farm- [and of snappy fighting spirit in the whole fug.

The Toronto Canadian Club, the parent organization of the movement which is spreading widely, has just .elected its of- ficers for tho next year. Much of the suc- cess of this organization has been duo to the judgment with which these, officers | have been selected, and this year promises to be no exception. Tho new President is Dr. A. H. U. Colquhoun, Deputy Minister of Education, who will guide the destinies of the club with care, and will be an ideal presiding officer. In Toronto Dr. Colqu- houn has an unusually wide circle of per- sonal friends. The First Vice-President Is Mr. T. A. Russell, nn Ontario boy who has empha- tically made good In Toronto. Russell comes from Huron county, and, like hun- dreds of other country boys, aspired to a University degree. He graduated In 1899. It in said that the late Prof. Goldwin Smith was greatly disappointed when on the light of day in the newspapers, for the sporting editors, as a rule, are loyal supporters of the home team. But the bleacherite basea his opinion on what he period accidents occurred in the mines, the other two on the surface. Dur- cicrte asea is opinion on wa . , , not what he reads And his opinions ! ing the thrC months 20 persons are generally forcibly expressed.

He Forgot That He Had a Stomach. Ask some pompous person if drape-Nuts Food helps build the brain. Chances are you get a, withering sneer and a hiss of denunciation. Then sweetly play with the learned toad. Ask him to tell you the analysis of brain imterial and the analysis c' Grape-Nuts. "Don't know i Why, I supposed you based your opinions on exact knowledge instead of pushing out a conclusion like you would a snee/e." "Well, now your tire is punctured, let's sit down like good friends and repair it." Tho bulky materials of brain aie water nnd albumin, but these things cannot blend without a little worker known ;;.s Phosphate of Potash, defined as a "mineral .'-alt." One authority, Geohegan, shows in his analysis of brain. f).3r? per cent, total of mineral salts, over one- half boing Phosphoric Acid and Potash combined, (Phosphate of Potash) 'J.ll per cent. Beannis, another authority, shows Phosphoric Acid and Potash (Phos- phate of Potash) more than one-half the total mineral salts, being 73.44 pur cent, in a total of 101.07. Analysis of Grape-Nuts shows Potassium and Phosphorus (which join and make Phosphate of Potash) is considerable more than one-half of the mineral salts in the food. Dr. (jco. W. Carey, Jin authority on tho constituent elements of the body, says; "The gray matter of the brain is controlled cntiiely by tho inorganic cell-sail, Potassium Phosphate (Phosphate of Potash). This salt unites with albumin and by the addition of oxygen creates nerve fluid or the gray matter of tho brain. Ofcour.se, there is a trace of other salts and other organic matter in nerve fluid, but Potassium Phosphate is tho chief factor, and has the power within itsc-lf to attract, by its own law of allinity, all things needed to manufacture the elixir of life." Further on he says: "Th beginning and end of tho matter is to supply the lacking principle, and in molecular form, exactly as nature furnishes it in vegetables, fruits and grain. To supply deficieiicies--this is the only law of cure." Brain is made of Phosphate of Potash as the principal Mineral Salt, added to albumin and water. Orape-Nuts contains that element as more than one-half of all its mineral salts. Kvery day's use of brain wears away a little. Siippos',; your kind of food does not contain Phosphate of Potash. How aro you going to rebuild to>lay the worn-out parts of yesterday ? And if yon don't, why shouldn't nervous prostration and brain-fa" result. Remember, Mind docs not work well on a brain that is even partly broken down from lack of nourishment It is true th;it other food besides Grape- Nuts contains varying quantities of Brain food Plain wheat and barley do. But in Grape-Nuts there is a cortaintv. And if the elements demanded by Nature, are eaten, the life forces have the needed material to build from. A healthy brain is important, if one would "do things" in this world. A man who sneers at "Mind" sneers at tho best and least understood part of himself. That part which omo folks believe links us to tho Infinite. Mind asks for a healthy braii. i pon which to act, nnd Natnro has defined n way to make a healthy brain and renew it day by day as it is used .ip from work of tho previous day. Nature's way to rebuild is by tho use of food which supplies the things required.
