No. 17 THE WEEK, SATURDAY, MAY 25, 1907 One Dollar Per Annum The Editor's Review Of Current Topics. JKING ..FT. For the past two weeks practically the whole of our editorial comment has been devoted .to em- basizing the evils of the present system of [inking in Victoria; evils which have been ng recognized and have recently given be to angry murmurs of discontent, not tly here but throughout the whole of ritish Columbia. Among the large num- |r of letters* we have received on this sub- at there is one appeal which is common I, all—a request that The Week will con- aue the good work and, as many of |r correspondents put it, keep on ham- ering away until beneficial alterations in le present system are effected. Most wil- jigly would we do this, but the field to ] covered by this—the only provincial re- jjw—is so great that it is impossible for to continue, in fairness to our outlying Ibscribcrs, after this week, to devote the pno sf)ace to this one subject. A Constructive Policy. I We could easily fill the whole paper with |ainples, shewing the stagnating influence the commercial life of British Colum- |.i of the present bank monopoly, but we |ould be repeating what is a self-evident ct to every business man of average in- Iligence. Our object is not merely to lunciate a destructive policy, but to out- le a constructive one. We have not the [ghtest desire to check the honest pro- ess of Eastern banks, but we do desire \ build up a financial centre in the far ost because we hold thc opinion that it laot healthy for any business community J permit its currency—which is its life |od—to be monopolised and controlled men who ave neither resident nor in- lested beyond collecting and using it for fcn purposes. KVc think that the time has come when [opportunity should be seized and the BANK OF VICTORIA founded. Must Take Risks. iVe have been told that Victoria lacks J necessary energy and pluck to take the Inge; we say that such a remark is a ll on tlie merchants and business men jthe Capital eity. Individually they le never hesitated to take risks, to or- lise, and to develop; probably the only licism which could be made on this com- |nity is that it has not yet fully learnt tremendous power of unity, and that Is by united action that the world's litest works have been accomplished, lat are these risks which are vaguely Red at, but seldom expressed in the con- Le? Surely all great movements are ended by more or less risk. The Brit- lEmpire as it stands today is the result faking risks. What added India to tht> Ipire ? A small body of men who dared |ake a great risk and hazard their lives their fortunes in the enterprise. The [lding of a bank in Victoria does not i for any such heroic measures. What ed Canada to the British Empire ? An- jtv small body of men who took a risk, tit was it tliat lost the United States lhe British Empire? Simply, the re- lance of King George III nnd his mini's to take the risk of allotting a cer- measure of self government to the toon colonies. Had they taken that here is very little doubt but that tlio lie of tlio continent of America would I: boon colored on our Empire map to- Favourably Situated. Now, let us see how Victoria is situated for the founding of a Western bank, for this purpose it would be wise to take a glance at a few of the leading financial cities of the world; we will take the four greatest—London, Paris, New York and Berlin. The question of age need scarcely be taken into account as New York and Berlin—in a financial sense—are mere children in age compared with London and Paris and yet they have forged their way to the front. The banking industry has become the main channel through which accumulated wealth is distributed in its earning capacity; hence, surplus wealth for loaning purposes is necessary and an advantage which +hese four cities possess in a greater measure than any others. Every bank manager and director in Canada knows that Victoria possesses a similar advantage as a banking centre. What Other Cities Have Done. Out of the four cities taken as our example, three are capital cities; whilst this is not a necessity, it is undeniably an advantage—an advantage we may point out which Victoria also possesses. Two of the four cities mentioned are sea-ports; this point can be strengthened from the well known fact that large sea-ports all over the world have always been prolific in the foundation and building up of banks. Liverpool, Boston, Montreal, San Francisco, Melbourne, Sydney, and many other examples could be cited; the reason for this is well understood by all financial experts. Victoria is a sea-port and bids fair, at some day in the near future, to be a large sea-port. We venture to predict that long before the end of this century, the harbour of Esquimalt, the Royal Roads, and the adjacent sea frontage will teem with shipping engaged in the huge Oriental trade which is bound to come! What has banking done for the tonicities mentioned, and for every other city which has become a financial centre ? We say that by the magnetism and power of finance it has attracted industries, enterprise and wealth, to those centres as well as developing native resources. Victoria's Advantage. During the course of this week a well known bank manager made tlio remark that Victoria had every advantage necessary for the foundation of a Western bank; the only difficulty would be tho necessity for Eastern avenues through which SURPLUS DEPOSITS MIGHT BE LOANED, as lie doubted if a sufficient outlet could bc found locally. We scarcely pause to point, out that the remark emphasizes the fact of Victoria's abundant wealth, A MOST IMPORTANT POINT in thc foundation of a bank. But we go on to take up tlie implied challenge and say tliat the moment a Victoria bank has surplus money, the same moment there will be a thousand and one applicants for it from tho East and Middle West; but there is a far more useful outlet for this surplus. Develop the Island. From Alberni, from Quatsino and from Nanaimo, come abundant evidence of an awakening; this is due in part to the magic wand of the C. P. R. and in part to local enterprise. There can be no doubt tliat in the very near future growing centres of business activity will ]io right at Vic toria's door. Surely these are the natural outlets to which any surplus will find its way; FOR EVERY SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS CENTRE DEVELOPED ON VANCOUVER ISLAND MUST GIVE ADDITIONAL IMPORTANCE TO. VICTORIA. Moreover the main purpose of the founding of TIIE BANK OF VICTORIA is to enable us as a community, to become masters of our own currency, to use our own wealth for our own development instead of—as at present—exporting it to distant parts of the Continent. Develop Victoria. In addition to curing the evil from which we are now suffering, we have pointed out how the financial industry of banking is a tremendous advantage to any city; we wish to emphasize this fact. The founding of the head office of any well managed bank draws in its train dependent industries. It also materially assists the existing local industries outside of ordinary banking matters; for instance, the whole of its printing and stationery would naturally be ordered locally; the whole of the head office staff would naturally live in Victoria; and, better still, Victoria bred youths would obtain an avenue through which they might rise to the head of the banking community in their own city instead of—if they are ambitious—having to migrate to a distant part of the country. How It Would Work. THE BANK OF VICTORIA would start with groat advantages over existing institutions. As soon as it is safely and solidly launched the city's account would naturally be handed over to her own institution, and this should be followed by the Provincial Government's account. If there be any who would say: "But suppose the City of Victoria or the Provincial Go" ernment at any time requires a large sum of money, how would a local bank bo able to handle the matter?" The reply is: ''Exactly in the same manner as it is done at present." The money required could be obtained by our local bank just as readily, as easily, and on thc same ternis, as banks obtain it now. AHold-TJp. Wc could hardly be worse off than we were four years ago when the Bank of Commerce held up the Province, through the Government, and threatened to stop supplies unless an obnoxious Assessment Act was swallowed " holus bolus." Not Fault of Local Agents. In offering this criticism on Banking in Victoria we wish it to bc understood that we do not lay any blame at the door of thc local managers. They are all gentlemen, and do as well for the community as their insatiable masters will permit. They and their staffs arc underpaid and arc allowed no discretionary power. They are not endowed with the responsibility of management; they are simply delegates who mechanically chronicle the decrees of Eastern directors. Fault in the System. The fault lies in the system; now is Victoria's growing time and therefore her opportunity to inaugurate a now regime. Her favour, which moans her money, is being courted; let her answer be, "Yes, I< have money, but I want it spent for the development of local resources and the establishment of native industries, and that can only be ensured by the foundation of a local Bnnk." Under the exportation of currency system Victoria lins boon n veritable ' Sleepy Hollow" for forty years: henceforth lot it reverse the policy and thrive. The erstwhile political Political bed-fellows who respec- Criticism. tively edit the Colonist and the Times, have fallen out in more senses than one, and on both sides of the fence vituperation is now the order of the day. The latest dispute is waged around tho somewhat interesting but rather recondite question as to tho net result of the Liberal regime. The editor of the Colonist, relieved from tie obligation of his Liberal vows, declares that he can see no result beyond the acquisition by Victoria of a Senator in Mr. Riley and a Minister in Mr. Templeman. The editor of the Times on the other hand, thinks that the only fitting thing for British Columbia to do in view of its overwhelming obligation to the Dominion Government, is to sing the doxology. As usual both extrcmeists are wrong, there are usual both extremists are wrong, there are other things which may be tabulated among the net results of the Liberal regime and one is the endowment of the only "Conservative" Journal of Western Canada with a Liberal editor, of which circumstance the Victoria Times should be the last to complain. The result of Premier The Foot McBride's visit to Eng- Of the Throne. land, even if nothing remains to be added, would fully justify the course he decided to adopt. He may or may not succeed in securing hotter terms for British Columbia thnn those offered at the Ottawa conference. That remains to be seen, but he has furnished nn object lesson not only to tho Dominion of Canada but to the British Empire of the freedom of our institutions and tlie accessibility of the highest autb- ii'i v to overy suppliant. Hereafter no 1 distant colony, however insignificant, 111 cd hesitate to follow in the steps of Premier McBride, and petition the, Throne in person for thoso rights to which it considers it is entitled. It, did not need the visit, of Mr. McBride to London to establish this fact, although tlie Liberal press of British Columbia was a unit in denouncing and in declaring that he neither could nor would reach tho Throne, but the incident has emphasized in an impressive manner the privilege which every country enjoys under tlie British flag. Political critics who have all along declared that Mr. McBride was merely running a bluff, and seeking to make political capital, may not hnvo the fairness to admit it, but they must now sec that, he is a Premier of a different calibre to tlie one they depicted, that he has already scored two notable successes in the fight, the wringing of an admission from Sir Wilfred Laurier that Britisli Columbia wns entitled to special treatment, nnd the securing of thc ear of Lord Elgin and the Colonial Office, and nn opportunity to present the case in person. The constitutional method adopted hy Premier .McBride is bound to bear fruit; it may not secure just what is sought, but that it will be barren of results cannot for a moment bo believed. If our Premier scores a final success, he will have rendered a notable service not only to his native Province but to the cause of constitutional appeal throughout the Empire. Thc final result of the The Chehalis Chehalis trial made known Verdict. this week, while it, mny ho disappointing to tho plaintiffs nnd contrary to public opinion is nevertheless strictly in lino with tlio evidence. The moral is that a sharper lookout must be kept by small craft. THE WEEK, SATURDAY, IvLW 25, 1907. At The Street ^ Corner * By THE LOUNGER In my time I have commented upon many nuisances, but for thc most part have dealt with abstract or in- , animate objects. This week I wish to say a few words on the subject of human nuisances. Of course there arc various kinds, including duns, brass bands and book agents. The class that 1 havc in my mind, however, is nf a more subtle kind, and has no idea that any person can possibly hold thc opinion that hc is not flic most entertaining individual, on thc face of thc globe. First of all there is the window- starer. This extraordinary human proposes .a walk down the street and insists on stopping at every shop window to. look at the articles there displayed. In a woman this is excusable, as it is part of her prerogative, and could bc no more easily abolished than her inalienable right to have the last word. It is one of the weaknesses of the sex and has probably been indulged in since the time when the prc-historic maiden stopped her brawny lover to discuss the comparative advantages of ah ichthyo- saurean skirt ur that made out of incgalosaurus. .In a man, however, such a habit is most- cbndemnable. There are two reasons for this discrimination between the sexes. It is a well known ;|kiom tliat a woman can never make tip her mind whereas determination is the recognized character of the man. If I happen to require any article. T tyiow what I want and I know the class of store in which it is* sold; I, therefore, repair without delay to the'emporium in question and inquire if "they havc what I want in stock. There is no need for mc to gaze in thc window to disturb my already made-up mind. Secondly, this habit of window-gazing is calculated to induce the uuweary passer-by to waste his substance on things of which hc has no need. The class of people who indulge in this idle folly are a source of nuisance to their companions, owing to their perpetually nudging them in the ribs to "Come and see this." Time is wasted, regret is felt'that thc want of cash prevents its purchase, or else, and this is more often the case, credit is obtained, debt ensues and thc last end of the window-gazer is worse than the first. A similar nuisance is thc companion who will take you for a country walk when nuts, blackberries or other wild edibles arc in season, and will insist oh diving into thc hedges or wayside shrubs in order to pick and ca.t For ihe such a course of conduct destroys all the pleasure of the ramble, and 1 invariably return home sulky and irritable. . There is, however, an even worse pest than either nf thc above-mentioned, in the shape of the amateur botanist. Imbued with laudable craving to learn thc truth about Nature's beauties, he has not the consideration to pursue his investigations alone, where hc would bc able to take his time, and pursue his erratic course without annoying his friends; hc usually suggests the walk, and then enlightens you as to his dread pursuit. Argument is useless; in all probability you arc enlisted in the enterprise, and probably return home laden with rank weeds and noxious grasses, a source of ridicule and contempt to all whom you may meet. Yon have been dragged up almost inaccessible peaks; you havc descended into what appears to have been the pit itself. You have walked three times as far as you wanted, and then you have been made a beast of burden. * tt is such little things as these which make life intolerable to those who arc devoid of such transient and minor interests. There is an clement of deceit underlying thc whole system. If you want to walk down thc street. do so; if you want to walk down the Price* from 35 cents to $5.00, according street to look into thc shop-windows, to site. Write for seed aad tree cata- do so, but warn your companion first, log. If there is a hollow craving in thc interior of your anatomy for black- JAY & CO. VICTORIA, B. C. berries or nuts, get up an expedition to go and pick them, but do not enlist an incautious friend whose tastes lie rather in the direction of philosophy or the stage. The amateur botanist, geologist and any other "ist" should never set out on his tour of exploration without first explaining his intention in no mistakable language. There was a magnificent parade of automobiles in . Victoria on Sunday last on thc occasion of the visit paid to the Capital by a large party of Mystic Shrincrs. Every public car for hire was pressed into service, and there were also two or more private cars, while the number of tally-hoes and hacks which were interspersed with their horseless rivals was extraordinarily large. Fortunately the weather was magnificent up to five o'clock and the drive round Oak Bay and back down the Dallas Road must have been perfect. The sight of the masses of clouds grouped on the Olympic range, so far from having a detrimental effect on the view, seemed if anything to lend new grandeur to the scene. It seemed impossible to believe that so many automobiles could have been imported into Victoria within so short a time as two years, for I believe that it was just so long ago that the first made its appearance. It is a pity that some means cannot be devised by which the scavengers might obviate the dust which they cause when loading the refuse of the streets onto their carts. Obviously this refuse must be dispsoed of, but when the dust cart comes round in dry weather it is almost impossible for residents to keep open their windows or doors without having the house filled with a most unhealthy deposit of dust. I do not think that a very scientific expedient need be resorted to. On the analogy of sprinkling water on a wooden floor before wcilding the broom, I would suggest that the city invest in a number of large watering pots, with which its employees could gently moisten the beeps swept to the roadside before shovelling them into their carts. I feel confident that there are many who will agree in this. Next week I hope to regale you with an account of the numerous comic incidents which are inseparable from a pnblic holiday. I would do so this week if it were possible, but as I have to submit my copy on this occasion before Thursday, it is manifestly impossible, unless I exceed the bounds of truth and tell of things before they happen. This I cannot do, for though you may not believe it, the other name fnr George Washing ton was afii 0-lC^%^, God made woman beautiful and unreasonable so that she would lovo man.—Life. COAL. J.

Shortly after the wine is bottled a fermentation takes place, and, the grapes being grown on chalky soil, the fermentation is sufficient to produce the effervescence in champagne, thereby forming a sediment which later on must be removed. After the wine has become ripe for consumption, G. li. Mumm & Co. have this done by placing the bottles in racks and shaking each bottle several times a day, turning it a little and gradually standing it on its head so that all sediment formed in the bottle rests on the cork. This operation requires from four to six weeks and is performed by skilled workmen called "Rcmueurs." After the sediipcnt has settled on the cork, the full bottles, head down, arc carried on electric runways iu Mtunm's cellars to thc degor- guer, who, holding thc bottle by the neck at a slight eleva- vation, removes with pincers the cork, which is ejected with great force by the natural effervescence of the wine, carrying the sediment with it. The dosage is then added, the proportions of which depend entirely on the taste of the market for which the wine is being prepared. The bottles are then recorked and wired and arc ready to be capped and labelled for export. Conclusion. The dosage is the last process in the preparation of French Champagne and depends upon the market for which the wine is intended. France, Germany and in fact most of thc Continent preferring not as dn- champagne as Great Britain and the United States, which demand wines of extraordinary dryness. Thc fact that Americans arc always willing to pay for thc best is one reason why the house of G. 11. Mumm & Co. exports its choicest products to this country. Some brands produce heavy wines by the addition of alcohol, but G. H. Mumm & Co. havc always aimed to furnish a pure champagne and of the very best quality, thc Extra Dry being of its type unexcelled, while thc Selected Brut is pronounced by connoisseurs the finest , brut champagne imported into the United States, all cuvces being made of vintage wines.

The Metropolis of Polo. London is certainly the metropolis of polo, and is proud of her prowess and power. Nowhere in the whole wide world can better ponies be seen, better games enjoyed, or finer players produced. It is a proud boast, but a pleasing one.—Field. Ethics for Lawyers. In a righteous cause thc lawyer must fight valiantly; in an unrighteous cause, never. This does not mean that the righteous lawyer is the one always to be found on the right side. There are enough doubtful cases, requiring thc skilled activity of the advocate to keep hirr engaged without selling his talents to defend the clearly unrighteous.—Independent, New York.

"The ghost of lost delight nm I, The sin you would not sin, Who comes to look In your two eyes And seo what might huve been." "Oh, long ago and long ago I cast you forth," he suid. "For thut your eyes were all too blue Your laughing mouth too red, And my torn soul wns tangled in The tresses of your head." "Now mind you with what hitter words You onst me forth from you?" "I bade you back to that fair hell Prom whence your breath you drew, And with great blows I broke my heart Lost It might follow, too. "Yea, from the grasp of your whlto hands I freed my hands that day And hnve I not climbed near to God As these hls henchmen may?" "Ah, man, ah, man! 'twas my two hands Thnt led you all the way." "I hid my eyes from your two eyes That they might sec aright." "Yet think you 'twas a star that led Your feet from height to height? It wus the (lame of my two eyes Thnt drew you through the night." With trembling hands he threw the door, Then fell upon Ills knee. "Ah, armed vision cloaked In light, Why do you honour me?" "The Angel of your strength nm I Who was your sin," quoth she.

THE WEEK, SATURDAY, MAY 25 1907. Music and Stage. The musical treat afforded Victorians last Tuesday evening proved an •immense success. The Institute Hall was well filled when at 8.30 Signor Claudio and his orchestra, The Mar- gherita Mandolin Club, appeared. The orchestra was assisted by well known amateurs in town, whose talents won a well-merited recognition. The club lias done well during the past year, and testifies to the ungrudging attention of both players and conductor. All tlieir pieces wcre played with expression and in perfect accord, one with another, and also with the conductor. This is as it should be, but, alas, so many amateur orchestras arc composed of players who arc quite content if tlieir instrument can be heard above any other. The Margherlta Mandolin Club can congratulate itself on this point, that all the players seemed to be playing as a whole, and not as a unit. Mrs. Harry Young was the accompanist throughout the evening, and never has she appeared to better advantage. The accompanist is too often left out in musical critiques, which is grossly unfair, as a bad accompanist will spoil the best siiiger. Mrs. Young is both sympathetic and accurate. Miss Brooker as a violinist was excellent, as was Mr. B. Foote as a cclloist. Mr. Arthur Gore sung "The Bandillero" with good effect and Mr. Henry Griffith pleased all with his rendering of ■ ''Voices of thc Woods" as set to Ru- benstcin's melody in F. Miss Jennie Bishop also scored a success with her song. To show that the concert was a success it is only necessary to say that every one of the individual turns was encored, and that all the ladies received bouquets. Needless to say Signor Claudio himself was enthusiastically received when he gave his violin solo and was compelled to return again. in the Armless One's accuracy of aim. The moving pictures were among the must amusing that have yet visited Victoria. Correspondence. Miss Barrymore's Summer Tour. Ethel Barrymore is now playing at the Empire Theatre, the most .successful engagement she has ever known in New York. Iler engagement there closes on May iSth and she immediately goes on tour for a summer season, whicli will extend well into August. Miss Barrymore has been having a busy time of it. Last October she went on tour in J. M. Bar- iic's play, Alice-Sit-by the Fire. Later she appeared iu Captain Jinks which she also used for her opening play at the Empire. Following this she has appeared in "The Silver Box," "Her Excellency thc Governor," and 'Cousin Kate." Miss Barrymore will be seen in "Captain Jinks" on tour and will visit this city. Clyde Fitch -never wrote a more delightful comedy or conceived a sweeter love story than that told in this play. The scenes are laid in the old New York in the days of hoop skirts and crinoline, lt is a striking picture of thc days of thc young gallants. Miss Barrymore plays thc part of Mile. Trcntoni. an opera singer returning to her own land—America—for her first appearance. It is her best creation and the one that established her as a Star. Approval From Vancouver. Vancouver, B.C., May 13, 1907. Dear Sir,—I have been much interested and instructed by your articles on Banking Graft. Allow mc to congratulate you on your courage and the fearlessness with which you have attacked the Trust which has control of the whole money power of the people of Canada, and which is almost, if not altogether, responsible for thc backward position of British Columbia, compared with the Pacific States to the south of us. We in Vancouver, sir, can sympathize witli Victoria people in the extraordinary and unjustifiable position in which they have been placed by thc transfer of what you so aptly term "Thc Life Blood of Commerce" from its legitimate arteries; but we have found a remedy, or, to speak rightly, the remedy has asserted itself. Some weeks ago, when financial institutions began to put on thc screws here, there was a rush for money by people who had payments to meet on their real estate investments. Money became so scarce after a few days that, in several instances, men of substance and responsibility were compelled to discount the amounts coming to them on agreements of sale at rates that ran as high as thirty per cent, per annum. Almost immediately, depositors began to withdraw their money from the savings banks and go in for the discounting of agreements, and for the good mortgages which wcre offering as high as eight per cent. The banks soon became aware that their action in closing down on legitimate investors was proving a boomerang, and today eight per cent, money is going begging by the thousands. There is another remedy, sir. There are in British Columbia several institutions, controlled and managed by well-known local business men, which offer depositors a fair rate of interest on tlieir money, instead of the paltry three per cent, which the savings banks allow. These institutions can offer as good security in proportion to their deposits as the banks. They invest all their money in British Columbia, and persons dealing with them do not have to suffer the humiliation of impertinent questions and advice from thc upstart clerks who constitute the bulk of the "puppets" mentioned in your article of the nth inst. When a man deposits his money in a local institution, he not only gets an increased rate of interest, but he knows who is handling his money, and that it is working in his home town, not in Mexico or South America, or on the Stock Market in New York, upholding American enterprises. Yours sincerely, AUNTY GRAFT. New Grand. The New Grand this week has certainly been putting up a good show as befits the time when Victoria is expecting a large concourse of visitors. W. North's cornet solo was admirably rendered and well received. Thc Illustrated Song was up to the average. Cora Simpson as a male impersonator was excellent both in her pathic and humorous selections. Thc house was convulsed with the serio- comicalitics of Courtright & Co. Finnigan is a lucky man to havc such a friend as Tom Gillen, who is rapidly making him as much of a popular character as thc historic "Mrs. Kelly." Thc turn presented by the T.utz Brothers is indeed a sensational marvel. The wonderful performance of Clarence Lutz, the armless wonder, who uses his toes and feet with infinite more agility than docs the ordinary person their fingers and hands, entranced the audience who sat spellbound while witnessing his extraordinary marksmanship. Thc utmost credit to the intrepidity of his brother who displayed every confidence Straightforward Legislators. A legislator in either Houses of Parliament who Hatters the people is a sycophant; a legislator who deceives the people is a liar; aud Parliament would he a far nobler assembly than it is if every man, either peer or commoner, wlio belonged to cither branch of the Legislature, never failed to speak his mind boldly and freely to the people.—Quarterly Review.

I have in my lifetime more than once been lost in a city or town of picturesque North or South Wales and, upon seeking advice of location from a native Cambriau, found that he knew nothing except "Dim Sassenach," or whatever is his gutteral translation of "Don't know English." Upon the offer of sixpence, however, Mr. Taffy can always rise to the' occasion and intelligently direct one to take the street to the right, perhaps called Llanbawdanfwarr-y-nylly-phwr for two blocks, and then another street to the left which sounds like Pwyll-yel-zstnyth, and then keep going down the steep incline to Mor- gannystyddllan-dudno or some such nice, easy appclation for a belated Englishman to pronounce. * * * I remember once, some summers ago, taking a short walk up a street of a small Welsh town while I waited for the next train. Standing at a corner of the road was a fair specimen of the nervous pink and white young English curate, in tourist attire. As he appeared to be somewhat familiar with thc place I ventured to ask him the derivation of its name, Machynclytth. He was a very fair young man with hair the color of unwashed flannel and hc blushed painfully and appeared to be greatly distressed that, in his bashfulness, he could not give mc thc English of. it. Later on in the day I was introduced to a bluff old Welsh farmer whose mock modesty did not prevent him from saying: "It do pe called Machynclytth, pecause it do mean pig-in- milk." * * * Were thc streets of our own beautiful Victoria as hard to pronounce as those of romantic "Welsh Wales" I imagine that the patience of our esteemed friends, the Tourists Association, would be taxed to their uttermost. The stranger within our gates should certainly be considered much more than he is in the matter of street names. * * * This last week I have done considerable trotting around and I find our Victoria street names frequently conspicuous by their absence. In many cases where the street names are there they are unreadable, battered-looking as though they had been through sonic celebrated seige. There is not always a native interpreter upon thc spot and the unfortunate stranger hast to walk along until he meets someone, or summon up courage to ring somebody's door bell for proper direction. I am now, of course, referring to the residential streets. * * * A lady told me thc other day that she walked rapidly after another lady to enquire the name of the street she was on, only to find the other woman puzzling herself with the same query. She then retraced her footsteps to meet another, rather an elderly lady, who also proved to bc a stranger to Victoria. This lady was equally puzzled. Finally, these three distressed females from a sister province paused to ask advice from an old and extremely stiff-backed gentleman whose chesty air, fortunately for them, betokened him to bc a walking encyclopedia of information regarding localities. * * * A newspaper woman from Toronto was energetically searching last week Coats, Suits and Waists CAMPBELL'S Everything Ready to Wear The Reason Why It is our unique system of daily shipments from Paris, London and New York, which makes our showrooms the fashion centre of Victoria, and gives our customers such a wealth of selection in Ladies' " Ready-to-Wear " Garments.

The announcement made by thc |felson Daily News that Mr. R. R. ledley is to have charge of the col- fcction of mining statistics and the ■reparation of reports, dealing with lie subject of mining and smelting in 111 the Western Provinces, will be lelcomcd with delight. It would ave been impossible to find a more l^mpetent or a more trustworthy bntleman for the position. Mr. Hed- ly is not only a trained Mining En- Jneer and an experienced smelter Ian, but he has done what none of is predecessors could do, in rescu- |g the Hall Mines Smelter from a [indition of bankruptcy, and made into a successful and economical hoposition.

Labour Shortage. Lest Victoria and Vancouver should think that the Coast alone is hampered by shortage of labour it may be well to repeat a statement recently made to the press by as competent authority as Mr. J. L. Retallack, the well known mining man of Kaslo. He declares that labour shortage exists along Kootenay lake points and the Slocan to an alarming extent at the present time, and that at the moment there was work waiting for 100 miners and muckers and 20 carpenters, none offering. During the winter time. Mr. Retallack said, there was generally a supply of good local men, but during the summer months these men were engaged in looking after their own interests, doing assessment work, fruit farming or prospecting and there was none to take tlieir places. General, and considering the difficulty which a premier usually experiences in making satisfactory appointments to his ministry, it is not a little surprising to witness the unanimity and case with which the Liberal organs nominate Mr. Bowser for the position. It is probable that the guess is as near to comparative accuracy as the performance of the same organs last year in predicting the date of the Provincial elections. A Square Deal. [it is not often that a Corporation pluntarily relinquishes a pecuniary Ivantage. Under the stress of cir- [mstances individuals have occasion- jjy done so, but not so Companies. lie C. P. R. has behaved handsome- to the Coal Mining Companies in le Crow's Nest Pass and Eastern [berta. These Companies, as has len pointed out by The Week, have [en mining coal at a very small pro- and the recent 10 per cent ad- Ince in miners' wages hit them jther hard, in spite of the fact that C. P. R. had contracts with most the mines, they havc voluntarily creased their contract price 10c a In to meet the advancing wages. As To the Point. The Slocan Mining Review, com-, menting on the settlement of the coal remark: "While we were all pleased to learn of the termination of the coal strike, makes the following pertinent strike, we cannot help feeling that a few more strikes will have the effect of forcing the Government to assume control of the coal mines. That is a desideratum we in common with thc Socialists dream of, but it certainly will not bc attained so long as the Crow's Nest Company have thc dead immortal cinch on the public, and arc subsidizing a certain newspaper not a hundred miles from Nelson. Disingenuous. When The Week announced the receipt of a despatch from Toronto predicting the early resignation of General Manager Lindsay the News wasted a dollar in telegraphing to Toronto for confirmation, and of course for the coveted denial. Six months ago when The Week announced that shortly there would be a fresh issue of stock by the C. N. P. Co., the Daily News and another Provincial paper obtained an official denial. On Sunday last the Victoria Colonist announced that Mr. Lindsay had authorized the press to state that there would at once bc an issue of $500,000 worth of new stock by his Company. Let the Editor of the News possess his soul in patience. In less than six months, and probably in less than three, the prediction of Thc Week will be verified, our authority is thc same well informed person who gave us thc first information about the issue in stock, and also told us that it would synchronize with thc exhaustion of thc funds which had been raised by selling stock at a premium. Since the new stock is to be issued at $250 for $100, it is quite evident that the system has paid well enough to be continued. It is also equally obvious that thc Nelson News is not in thc confidence of its financial backers. so when the city was engaged in a legal fight to protect its rights, thereby greatly weakening the hands of those who were straining every nerve to prevent a giant monopoly from appropriating its power site. Now that the West Kootenay Co. has absorbed the Cascade Co., on terms which would never have been secured if the Daily News could have prevented it, and now that the litigation with the city is settled that paper is reading the citizens of Nelson a lesson on the beatitudes and particularly the one which declares that it is blessed to manifest the spirit of meekness, and when you are smitten on one cheek to turn the other. It argues that Nelson ought to be very much obliged to thc West Kootenay Co. for condescending to transact business in the district, and it urges a reversal of the policy pursued by thc civic authorities of the city in vigorously defending their rights. As far as Thc Week knows Nelson has never engaged in an offensive campaign against the corporation in question; it has unfortunately been compelled to wage a very costly defensive war, in which it received no assistance from the Daily News, and the virtuous platitudes of that organ will only tend to deepen the impression that at no stage would it havc been a safe ally. mals had considered the direction in which they wished to drop their trees and gnawed accordingly. The exhibit is attracting considerable attention." We Stand Corrected. The Kelowna Courier has seen the point of thc observations made in Thc Week with respect to its diminished size, and now wishes to explain that its proposal is simply to cut out boiler plate, and give nothing but original matter. Thc Week did not understand this before or would not have hesitated to say that one page of local original stuff is worth twenty of imported boiler plate. In abolishing thc latter the Courier is following an example set by thc Colonist as soon as the present management came into control, a course which is to be commended. There is not the shadow of a doubt that subscribers generally have no use for American inserts. When they want American or Eastern material they buy it at first hand. The Courier will be well advised to act on the result of thc vote already to hand. It will save money, time and patience. Another Guessing Contest. The Liberal press of the Province is once more busily engaged in a cheap guessing contest, the puzzle is to fill the portfolio of the Attomey- Easily Explained. Thc Nelson Daily News has always championed thc cause of thc West Kootenay Power and Light Co., against thc City of Nelson. It did The Industrious Beaver. The opportunities for observing thc beavers at work arc not as numerous now as in pioneer days; it is therefore interesting to note that so near to an industrial centre as thc new coal city of Hosmer. interesting specimens of their work have recently come to life. The Fernie Free Press says: "Cree and Moffatt have in their window some unique curios in thc form of stumps off which the trees have been cut by beaver at Hosmer. Thc cut of the beaver will compare favourably with the axe work of many a man who considers himself a chopper.

Nevi- son lirst appeared in the British Weekly to substantiate my case. But when I started out I had no intention of saying so much about literary criticism, but rather to direct attention to the use of the term sanity as applied to the judgments of men with respect to their fellows, and here the term is not so definitely understood. As a rule if one speaks of a man as sane, the antithesis occurs to the mind, and we find ourselves balancing his mental equipments as against that of thc insane man. Perhaps for example he is endeavoring to sustain a difficult and trying relationship, a relationship which is permitted only because it is recognized that hc is an exceptional man, with an exceptional character. Part of this may be due to natural endowments, and indeed must bc, but a large part may also be due to wide experience in human affairs; for any man who brings an invariably sane judgment to bear upon the incidents or life must have fathomed the depths of human experience, must have known what it is for thc iron to enter his soul, and above all must have outlived that period of dreary pessimism, which attacks every man of character however virile, when he first reads dards which we could never reach, but which have to be aimed at. I suppose this is one of them, but whenever I hear a man complimented on his sanity, and accorded pri viieges on that account, I stand afar off and worship; he is not a man, he is a god. If he triumphs, he will emerge from the conflict with mortal wounds, and a visage marred more than any man's, but he will have acquired thc distinction of having preserved the faith of the world in hit* man sanity, that will be his reward: what more should mortal man ask?

My resolve to write on the subject of sanity is traceable to a totally different origin. Thc word sane is frequently used to denote a man of sound judgment. I imagine the word has crept into this usage because it is fuller and more •expressive than any other. It implies a correct judgment and also correctness infused with humanness. A judgment which springs not only from intellectual grasp of a subject or an incident, in relation to all its bearings, but from the sympathetic assent of a well-balanced mind and a gen- eious heart. izes thc truth of the great teacher's dictum, that "all is vanity and vexation of spirit." In the first shock of this conviction most men stagger, it means the dispelling of a bright dream, the shattering of an idol or the revealing of "feet of clay." This is a small matter to a weak man, or to one who does not take life seriously, it simply means a superficial bruise but no deep wound. He will quickly recover and either become cynical or sceptical, and iu any event thereafter eternally selfish. He feels that having once been victimized it is his due, it is liis right, to be avenged, and in the pettiness of his spirit he puts a dab of putty and varnish over the scar and sallies forth The term is applied to literary critics, and differentiates the man of cold a confirmed egotist, intellectual accuracy from the one But all men arc not so constituted. who, in addition, is equipped with After the first shock of dis-illusion- breadth of view, and a charitable out- ment, they recover their poise.

Seccombe is brilliant and at times will produce a literary criticism worthy of William llaslitt, but his judgment is far from being as A Victor of Salamis. William Stearns Davis, the author of "A Victor of Salamis," is undoubtedly the leader among the younger generation of American authors in this class of fiction. Although he is still under thirty, he has no less than six books to his credit. Mr. Davis seems to be the legitimate successor of Gen. Lew Wallace and Sienkie- wicz. His stories are equally remarkable for their correctness of historical detail and the genuine spirit of romance that runs through them. In this new story Mr. Davis has turned to that radiant period in clas sic history when Athens was queen of Greece and Greece led the civilized world. Hc seems to havc reserved this brilliant stage for the time of his maturer powers; and most successfully has he made use of the dramatic possibilities of that heroic struggle in which Hellas saved herself, and in so doing saved all Europe from Oriental despotism. Recalling this momentous period it is no wonder that "A Victor of Salamis" is a continuous narrative of glorious fighting and splendid episodes of action. The principal character is a young athlete who wins the wreath of victory at the Isthmian games, and the exciting contest, in which he meets the champions of all Greece, is vivified with remarkable and exciting distinctness. Later, the athlete, through the machinations of enemies, is driven forth from Athens, and the scene shifts to Persia, where the book glows with all the color and warmth of the Orient at the period of Xerxes' greatest power. This power is turned toward the subjugation of Greece, and gives the hero an opportunity to redeem his name by manly feats of courage at the* battle of Salamis and elsewhere. It is plain that a story which includes scenes and events so pregnant and thrilling as these, when handled by a man who long ago proved himself to be a born story-teller, must be one to hold the attention of appreciative novel readers.

Thc volume of Collected Essays by Frederic Harrison, which has just been issued by Thc Macmillan Company, is a book which shows thc religious tendencies of thc time no less plainly than thc Rev. R. J. Campbell's much-talked-of work, "Thc New Theology." As is well known, Mr. Harrison has been for many years one of the leading English Positivists and members of thc so-called "Church of Humanity." But he was brought up in au orthodox High Church family, and hc has himself said: "I have passed through all thc typical phases of religious thought, from effusive Ritualism to Broad Church, to Latitu- diitai'ianism, Unitarianism, Theism, and finally to the Faith in Humanity in whicli I rest." In this book he has gathered together his most important essays on religious and philosophical subjects, prefixing them with an "Apologia pro Fide Mca," in which hc tells thc connected story of his religious evolution. This new and hitherto imprinted essay is perhaps Mr. Harrison's most important contribution to religious literature, beside being a human document of absorbing interest.

A Human Interest Sketch. (By Mary Langton) My old friend the wharf rat is still :o the fore, so I am going to tell you lis latest yarn. "True for your, Miss, when you lay 'ThereV-many—a slip 'twixt the :up and~th«nip.' fj(~*''l "They are good things, too, some- imcs, those slips. "Old Abe, yonder, says he wishes hcy'd come oftener his way, pay day light. It's often this way: I'm a hinking, Miss, there's lots of folks vhat's just going to drink what the ireachcrs call a 'cup full of the pleas- :ris.s_o£ Ufc,' when suddenly something SB-fit; there's a slip, and they hd out afterwards as they're all the iore happy for that slip. All this ire reminds me of something I'd kc to tell you about, what happened short time ago. One cold March ight when I was a hustling around usual with the baggage, and oc- isionally putting on a extra spurt keep warm, I seed a smooth-look- ig dude with a long overcoat and rey kid gloves a-walking up and own the wharf. He was one of them ;gular town swells, with nothing to d and lots of dough to do it with. "Now, there's plenty of swells, me id Abe comes up against, regular ecent sort of guys, and we always ce as not takes a shine to 'em. But [e didn't much like the cut of this Ire one's jib; he seemed too sleek |id perlite looking with a sort of a jring-y and cat-like walk. Soon a lb comes along, and out gets a mid- |e-aged man and his purty wife. A line man, Miss, the boss of one of lie largest firms in town, and I eerd it said the smartest, most hon- (it and busiest man in the place. Jut his eyes, Miss, had a kind of Ired look, and his heavy beard made fs face seem old. His wife was Dung, one of them purty creatures, liss, what seems to sparkle all over |<e, when she smiles, and that was 1st about all the time with her theu. then that smooth-faced dude sees rn, off goes his topper, and he bows pel scrapes and 'Ahs' till he gets jht up to 'cm. The man sees after |e luggage, and the lady smiles up the dude as she says: T do hate [ling away alone, even tho' its only Seattle.' I'T was a-piling up a truck, and I juldn't help seeing the dude take Ir hand, and heerd him say: 'The Ixt time I won't let you go alone, Iir.' The lady kind of blushed and Iked a bit sideways at him. Then, Iss, I heerd a sort of quick drawn "path, like, and there on the other \e of the truck was the man, with tired eyes all a-blazing, and just lieering hard at them two over the Jis of the trunks I'd piled up. fVVell, the boat pulled out, Miss, 111 the lady on board, ,a-smiling the lie as ever at them two a-standing [the wharf. The smooth-faced dude lh his hat in one hand, and the Iter a-waving his kid gloves. The |cr man stood quiet like, a keeping eyes fixed on his wife, till she |s out of sight, and when the dude 'Good Night' he didn't move. just kept a-gazing after the [it. When we started to fix up the night I sees him go and speak [the watchman, then get into his and drive away. [It was about this time a new came to take thc night shift lh Abe and me, as thc work was Iting kind of heavy and we needed Ip. He was a clean shaved cove, 11 he didn't know much about the as he'd been working in an ollice, hc wanted to learn and guessed ll Hke the out-door life all right, (was quite tall and young compared f.i Abe and mc, and we called him 'White Kid.' cos' he was so clean, always wore a soft black slouch and he didn't talk much, hut j-ked hard, and wc all kind of cot- led to him. He used to get a bit fvous-like when a boat was coming or going out, and I thought he [n't quite onto his job yet. But Abe says to me 'That fellow's done something and 's trying to dodge the cops. Guess he'll vamoose one of these nights.' Then, one day, soon after this, I sees that pretty woman a-coming down the gangway, and there was that smooth dude to meet her. I heers her say 'The wire reads 'Going away on business, better come home at once to look after your mother and the servants.' "The dude smiles with his teeth, and in a kind of sneering way, says: 'Oh, on business!' "The. days and nights went by quickly in the same old way, the White Kid was sticking close to his job, not mixing with the boys much, and we never sees him anywhere when off watch. Old Abe was getting mighty curious: 'Bet he's in a deal with the customs—anyway there's something foxy going on.' But I says 'Na, he ain't the kind to play foxy with nothing; he's on the dead every time, 1 can tell it by his face.' "Yes, Miss, by his face. It was a kind of a sad face, too, wid a yearning kind of look as if he wanted something so bad but was just a-biding his time in hopes of getting it. "Sometimes when it wasn't our watch, he'd slip away in the dark, and we wouldn't see him again till his next shift. One night, Abe.says to me: 'Come on pal, let's follow him,' and I've cussed myself ever since for a-doing it. No, Miss, it was no place for the likes of Abe and me, a-hiding there like sneaks, behind the rocks, a-watching him walk up and down the shore under the stars, with only the waves to talk to and his eyes a-gazing up at those window lights in the swell houses on Nob Hill. And when the glims was all doused he goes back to the bunk house for the rest of the night. "Well, Miss, to go on with my yarn—about three weeks after this down comes that dude again to the boat. "This time hc was a-hustling round getting a whole car-load of trunks checked, and a-tipping all the hands mighty handsome. The steward tells me he goes on board and fusses about the cabins he's engaged, opens boxes of flowers, puts them in water, and sees that everything is up to the notch. Then, who should come along but that pretty woman. She wasn't the same, though, Miss. The sparkle seemed all gone, and she was nervous like, and her eyes looked sad and strained. She didn't go on the boat, but stood alone, back near the freight shed, a-gazing up at the city, the lights a-noddin' back at her as she seemed a-telling them all a silent good-bye. Then it was, Miss, that for the first time I noticed the White Kid. He was a-standing behind a trunk near where she was, not doing his work, but a-bending down behind the boxes wid his hat off, and his eyes just burning like coals in the light as he peered into her face. She didn't scc him, but kept a-looking up at them blinking city lights till two tears dropped on her hands. Then, Miss, the Kid goes forrard, I thought to stop him, but I tell you Miss, that look in his face and his burning eyes keep me back. And there he stood before her, a-holding out his arms and sort of crying like, 'Come dear, come back home again.' "And the boat slipped out with the dude on board, and a night hand shy."

Editor Week: Sir,—Mr. Sloan paid a flying visit to Cumberland Thursday, leaving on Friday morning. His mission was, I have been informed, to enquire into political management of the News. He, witli one of his lieutenants, paid a personal visit as late as half past two o'clock on Friday morning to one of his advisors. Did you notice the announcement in the first issue, May 8th, after he had attacked The Week? Fancy a man who supported the Liberal Government less than three months ago, saying that the News would not be conducted as a Liberal paper. He was born in the cradle of Liberalism—old Ontario. He will simply create what he thinks will sell. Is it supposable that any vender iu the land would not rather sell Bibles than playing cards, if he could make more money selling Bibles? It will even be so with Editor Bates. He will create politics for his "health's sake." There is a strong desire in every town for a clean, reliable newspaper, printed with trustworthy news of its town and the general news of the world, and in any intelligent circle you may happen to drop into, the common talk is the untrustworthiness of certain newspapers. Whose fault is it that the people do not have better papers? Whose fault is it that they do not have a better House of Representatives, or a better Senate? Why is so much adulterated food sold? Is it because the poor stuff is cheaper than the good, or because people arc ignorant, or because they do not care? It goes without saying that there will always be people ready to sell anthing that others will buy. The newspaper owner, like every other owner of everything, is more or less affected by the common desire to get rich, and to get rich speedily. And the means of attaining this end differ among newspaper proprietors as they do with men in any other business. Some are self-respecting and honest, and some are not. Some are tempted to address themselves to the tastes of the majority. And what is the taste of the majority? A mere miscellany of sensational stories, a desire to satify the newly awakened desire for notoriety on the part of certain of its readers. Thc newspaper that attempts to present a picture of its town's doings and to be trustworthy, must have an intelligent manager. The public is more and more capable of forming its opinions—politically especially—without editorial suggestions from men who boast of "reserving the right of criticizing any political party" when they really intend to serve the party which pays thc highest price.

Some of the colours in dress linens are lovely, and rose-pink is said now to be dyed in so that it does not fade. Grey-striped linens are also provided, and nattier blue has been successfully produced, which is a relief to the minds of its many linen- loving admirers. It is a dainty fashion, and one befitting our scrupulously cleanly British womenkind. Pleasant as it is to look upon fresh, clean washing-material frocks, it is pleas- anter to reflect how clean they are. Our glove bills for the season of grace are going to be very heavy, when fashion decrees that pearl and French grey, mastic and pale tans are the shades to wear, suede the material, and twelve or sixteen-button length the style, then the woman with a strictly limited dress allowance be- biris to feel anxious. I don't know why it is, but even in high summer two afternoons' wear kills a pair of delicate-lined gloves; everything one touches leaves a mark, and things must be touched. Some women buy one long pair and half a dozen short pairs to match. They cut the hand parts off the long ones and hem the arm portion, whicli is pulled down over the short gloves and fastened under a bangle. It is an ingenious plan, and answers quite well. Needless to say only the careful and troubled ones of us do it, so that the gloves do not suffer greatly because of the economy. As if choosing and buying our clothes was not already sufficiently difficult there is plainly a worse time to come in front of us. That mysterious body of people whose identity and whereabouts no one seems to be able to even guess at and yet whose existence dominates every garment we wear, seem to have given their secret commands that every length of material that is used shall bc dyed some different and obscure colour. This mania for new colours is growing to such lengths that it is adding perceptibly to the burden of life. Particularly so is it in the case of the women who arc trying to dress in blue, and as most of them are determined to dress in blue just now, they are all more or less cross. No two of these new blues can be found that will have anything to say to each other; they positively shriek if we attempt any blending, and as no two different materials will dye the same shade our difficulties are ten-fold. But what arc we to do? No Nattier-blue frock —for instance—is in the least the same colour as any Nattier-blue hat, and yet no woman would be so cruel as to inflict a peacock blue hat with a Nattier blue frock upon the eyesight of her fellow creatures. And as black hats do not "go" in this case, and all other colours are suicidal the woman possessed of a blue frock must obviously go hatless or spend long days of agitated matching. One imagines how lucky men are to be quite exempt from this kind of difficulty. They never have to go careering round searching every shop for a shirt to match their coat, lucky creatures. All men being resolved upon looking as exactly alike as possible, thc tailors and hosiers simplify matters by bringing out all the slight variations upon their few wants quite simultaneously, so that no man need •walk a mile to get exactly what every other man possesses. Thc only exception to this I ever met was a man who proudly owned to orange-coloured pyjamas with large black lozenges. Whether these were the result of long search or accident T never heard. At any rate men should bc daily thankful for their escape as no one but herself knows thc agonies endured by a woman with an "eye for colour." After a long period of degrading opulence an awakening has set in in the artistic perceptions of thc people who make it their business to scc to thc floral decoration of dinner tables and ballrooms, Thc unhappy mil lionaire finds that several hundred dollars' worth of orchids on one table no longer bring him either admiration or envy, while the woman who understands how to arrange three roses in a vase is raved over by her friends. The reaction is a healthy one, both for mind and purse, and long may love of simplicity be with us. The enormous palm as a necessary furnishing of a room or hall is now fortunately as out of date as the "orb" or draped pot it once stood in, and in place of them we have the most graceful of natural little tree ferns and shrubs in rough earthenware pots of uncommon designs. A delicious variant upon these can be had just now by plucking long stems and branches of hawthorn and other bushes while they are still only in bud; the soft brown stems and tender green buds look exquisite wedged in large bowls. One hears it called sacrilege to pick unopened buds, but I fail to see why we should not enjoy the beauties of foliage in all its stages. The cult of excessive slimness has reached us in its most violent form. The new short-waisted frocks make it almost a necessity, and figures are being compressed and diets curtailed to a great extent. Diet of a most rigid kind is self-imposed by the majority of women, and Lent may come and Lent may go, but it could not possibly inflict any further penance in the way of food. As this kind of living invariably results in the face being the first to suffer and to look haggard, continual massage with fattening creams and skin foods is necessary, and the life of a woman determined upon an elegant figure is not one to be envied just now. Besides the encasing garments from shoulder almost to knee of whalebone, etc., great attention has to be given to the choice of petticoats. A favourite method to obtain an extremely straight line is to wear thin silk combinations and then a long princess petticoat of soft silk perfectly plain and heavily hemmed, the hem filled with a roll of small shot, the skirt will then fall over this in undisturbed and clinging folds. Shall we soon be damping our clothes to make them cling, like the mediaeval ladies? I am quite convinced that all the doctorings of makers of rational and hygienic underwear would go for naught if the damping process was found to give good results. And then one imagines that we should see those interesting "vapours" and "swoons" and "hectic flushes" in which ladies of the past indulged. The Passing of Chameleon Jones.

"That seat is taken," said a morose old gentleman; "my friend has kept it with his bag." "All right," said the wily passenger affably, "I'll occupy it till he comes." Of course the friend never came, and just as the train was moving out of the station the wily passenger seized the bag and threw it out of the window. "What are you doing, sir?" shouted the old gentleman furiously. "Anything the matter?" inquired the other. "You don't want your friend to lose his bag, do you?"

Although it is now practically the end of May there has been no definite step taken towards forming a team. In a large measure thc baseballcrs are like thc lacrosse players, waiting to see how much they can make out of thc game, and would rather remain out if they cannot make some money. This is a very poor sporting spirit and one that will have to bc overcome before Victoria can claim to havc a winning team. The writer can name nine Modern British Modesty. Thc Briton of very modern times has had instilled into him the quality of diffidence, and to be aggressive has been represented to him as amounting to vice. Hc is also more than ready to acknowledge the merit of those whom aforetime he used contemptuously to designate as foreigners. This modesty is commendable; but it would bc dearly bought at the expense of that sense of greatness which used to belong to thc nation.— Country Life. Is the essence of the finest grades of wheat. It is prepared by special process which eliminates all parts of the grain useless as human food, retaining only that portion of the wheat kernels which contain every element necessary for the human body in due ratio. Nemo is a malted food; in the malting process all thc starch is neutralized; .all germ life is destroyed; all the grain is thoroughly sterilized. It is purity.
