Perhaps he is under the impression the people gave him a mandate for his "tinpot" navy in 1910, consisting of the RainboWand the Niobe. The latter vessel has spent most of her time in dry-dock, recuperating from the effects of attending political picnics in Yarmouth County, while the poor old Rainbow cannot put out to sea for fear of going to the bottom should a gale blow up. With Mr. Emmerson reading the Declaration of independence, Dr.. Neely of Humbolt discussing Revolution and the Boston Tea Party, and Mr. White of Victoria, Alberta, declaring on the floor Of parliament that the tJnited Empire Loyalists came to Canada because they were, afraid to fight, ;the Iiiberalsare making excellent campaign material for the Conserv^ives these days. ��������� A hearty ..Vote of thanks should be tendered these gentlemen by every Conservative Association executive throughout the Dominion. The issue is a clean- cut one.

The Opposition has'been for months accusing the Government of altering the grades of the Transcontinental Railway and of making other alterations in the standard of construction, to the detriment of the road. These charges were made on the basis of rumors. Those who made the charges were not content to wait for information as to the actual facts. That did not suit their case which depended upon the lack of accurate information. At a somewhat late hour the facts have been aaked for, and the information elicited explains the readiness of Liberal members to get the charges out ahead of the facts. It had already been stated officially that such grade changes as bad-been decided upon would in, no way lessen' the hauling capacity of the road, while they would contribute toward more economical construction. The information lately asked for by the Opposition and furnished by the Government shows that the changes made in regard to grades, bridges and trestles were recommended by the Chief Engineer of the Transcontinental Railway Commission, and tbat on the estimate of District Engineer H. M. Balkan), the saving in cost so far has amounted to $27,797. ' NOTHING TO IT. Hon. George P. Graham, former Minister of Railways, asked these further questions: "How many temporary trestles on the eastern division of the National Transcontinental Railway, originally intended to have been permanently filled, have been substituted for permanent structures, and where are they locatedt "How many temporary or wood bridges have been substituted where concrete and steel or per- mm made BACHELOR Ask the man who smokes thtm. By Our Special Correapoo^ilat, Arthur R. Ford / Ottawa.���������Every session of the House of Commons serves to bring to the front men who by attention to Parliamentary duties joined to natural ability are soon marked as coming leaders' in their party. This session of the Commons has, it is true, been unusual in the fact that thus far its energies have been so concentrated on one great issue that men whose abilities are marked in other lines have suffered under a disability. Tet out of that outstanding question of the navy there has come demand for men able to handle what might be termed side-issues and to back up the heavy artillery with the, machine guns of clear cut constitutional argument and effective reply to specious arguments. ���������;'-"'������������������''.. The Conservative party in the House of Commons today is fortunate in the band of young men wbicb it possesses who are energetic, resourceful, hard-working students and public spirited. More than that,/they ajfc men of ideals and ambitions, men who if they continue in public life will fully maintain the traditions of the Conservative party. There is probably no man in the House who has come to the front more ;rapidly this session than Arthur Meighen, member for Portage-la- Prairie. He has been prominent in every important debate, and the, confidence which the premier and the Government repose in him is shown by the fact that on a number of occasions he has handled the brief fcgr the Conservative ��������� party, and handled it on every occasion with con- snmate ability. One of tiie:j.otabie speeches ot the session waa bis presentation of the case for a system of rural credits through co-operative banks. The subject would batdly be described aa one of entrancing interest t$ ^ but Mr. Meighen preeented ni������ case in snob a brilliant manner, and ;brougtgjs: such strong evi- dence to back up all bis opinions, that he was followed with keenest interest by a full house, and' at the close there eai^ ra^ the finance minister, Hon. W* T* lfaite,ithe complimentary reference that Mr. Meighen had presented his subject In "an absolutely fascinating manner." Mr. Meighen haJTone of the keenest legal minds in tbo Hoiwe today, bis power of analysis being acknowledged generally to he second only to that of Hon. George E. Foster, whom in many ways be resembles. In addition he is a deep student and is one of the best posted men in the House on Parliamentary procedure and constitutional issues. During this session he has had a particular opportunity to exercise his ability along these lines. An unusual number of knotty constitutional and Parliamentary problems have come before the House this session. There was the famous Miller case���������-a. case without precedent in the history of the Canadian Parliament. Mr. Meighen handled, this difficult situation, so important to the work of Parliamentary committees, with notable skill, and was generally congratulated on bis brilliant speech on the subject. Not less notable was his work in connection with the charges made against Hon. Louis Coderre, secretary of state, while in the matter of the constantly arising questions of rules of tbo House,* so much to the front this session, bit services to the Government have been invaluable. So brilliant is Mr. Meighen a work this session and so very evidently is he in the close confidence of tbe premier and the cabinet ministers that his name is being freely mentioned as the next to succeed to a portfolio when a vacancy from the west occurs. That he would add strength to the manent bridges were to bave been constructed, and where is each located t "Are any of the momentum, grades, or apportion of them, on trestles? Ifj so, in wbat district and at what milet / "Have any yards or divisional points on the line of the* eastern division of the National Trans- contmenftal Railway been reduced from the original plan in area, trackage, buildings or efficiency 1" The answer to each of these questions was, "None." ���������iv VALUE FOR THE MONEY. The work of completion of the Transcontinental Railway since the overthrow of the Laurier Government has been carried on by business men on a business basis. The work has been expedited. There has been none of the wastefulness characteristic of the old methods. The people are getting value for their money. Government birth "rathe House and outside of it an the Prairie Provinces is undoubted. - .Another young man who though with less Parliamentary experience ia looked upon as one of the coming men of the House is William F. Nickle, member for Kingston. Mr. Nickle' vgas in the Ontario Legislature, where he made a name for himself, and he was one of the Conservatives to resign when; the reciprocity campaign came along in 1911. He and his Conservative colleagues who left the Legislature to try for the House of Commons under the leadership of Robert Laird Boi-den were every oneof them successful and a notable accession they were to t the Conservative party at Ottawa. Mr. Nickle ia in many respects very much like Mr. Meighen in appearance and habits. He is equally as studious, and also revels in fine constitutional arguments. He has made a number of very able speeches on the questions that have arisen on the rul������s pl^b)e House, which have had siich bearing u!pdh tbe pi-ogress of pnblic business this session. M^. Nickle in his first session made what waY conceded to be the ablest "maiden speech" in the House. It was upon the question of old age pensions, not a particularly exciting topic. The debate had been dragging wearily, the few members in the House reading papers or writing letters. Mr. Nickle afose and at once caught the attention of ihe drowsy House He spoke but fifteen minutes, but in that fifteen minutes lie put forward as much aycurate information and soUd argAiu&nt aa many an able speaker would with diutclilty Mye covered in two hours. The speech in its'wwwns a master- pjeee, and brought commendation from both "Pfremier^ord������& and Sir Wilfrid Laurie^ 'From theJr^rthe^ West came in 1911 a new niember, H.H^ Stevens, representing the city of Vancouver* wlio has alao rapidly come tp the % front. Mr. Stevens is one of the most conscientious : and tnoBt diligent members of Parliament. He is 1 f������}thful in Jiis attendance in the House, follows the progress of legislation closely, and has. shown himself a most useful member of committees. Mr. ll|!?������������^^bo iri Bti^^ quite aHmfintife career. He saw active opel%- tions in the Philippines ahd later went through the Boxer Rebellion in China. He has roughed it in every form and shape in British Columbia, and has arisen from a fireman land stage driver to be member of parliament for the most important city of British Columbia. And at that he is still in his thirties. His Oriental experience has giveo him splendid opportunity of observing ���������'������������������ithe. Asiatic problems that occasionally come to the front in Canada, and he bad decided views on the question of -Japanese, Chinese and Hindu immigration into Canada. Recognition of the ability of. a well known Western Ontario member came at the beginning of this sessioq when Mr. W. S. Middlebro, member for North Grey,Vwas appointed one of assistant. Government; nyhips in succession to Mr. A. S. Goodeye, who was appointed to the Railway Commission. Anything that has to do witb the whip's department is no sinecure, for it is the duty of Chief Whip John Stahfield a.nd his assistants tQ have the Government forces in order for any and every contingency. But at the same time, despite the heavy dut'e8 laid upon them, the positions are regarded as those of honor. Mr. Middlebfo has taken to the duties of the position with marked ability, and the choi<fe made of him has been well justified. But an even more signal recognition came in the appointment o������ the North Grey to the position of chairman of the Public Accounts Committee, one of the stormy committees, of the House. It does not often fall to the lot of tbe chairman of his committee to deal with as troublesome a situation as arose over the famous Miller episode where a witness refused to give information. To allow such conduct to pass would have been to make a farce of the committee and Chairman Middlebro took prompt action by reporting the matter to the House, and by recommending that the recalcitrant witness should be called to the bar of the House. That this was done and the circumstances surrounding the occasion will be well, remembered as one of the sensational events of this session. The man Miller was sent to jail and he is still there. The rights of the Public Accounts Committee, as well as of all other committees, were clearly vindicated. In the naval debate, too, Mr. Middlebro took a prominent part, bis speech on the second reading of the bill being -regarded as one of the best efforts on the part of Government members.

But during the long painful servitude of the dark ages the sons of Italy still remembered the days when Italia ruled the world, and they could see no good reason for remaining down under a cloud and in mental and superstitious darkness. Hence they longed for light, for mental freedom, for spiritual manhood, for an uninvaded home, for a fair educational and national chance to compete among, and with men of all nations, as formerly they successfully had done to the amazement of the whole world.

Board of Works estimates . -which will probably come up before the City Council next Monday, contain, an item of |3,000 for street name plates, with which it is hoped to remedy many of the corners of the city that are defective in this respect. Name plates of the ordinary blue and white enamel type are to be used for the present, and the estimate of $3,000 will provide for only a portion of the needs of the city. Ultimately Chief Engineer Fellowes hopes to have an illuminated sign sys tem to cover the city, but owing to the condition of the city's funds this year it will be impossible even to start upon it. The system used in other cities is to have lighted signs on the street-lighting standards, with information as to the house numbers in the blocks. The present method of nailing a name plate on a building or stamping it on the concrete sidewalk is useless at night. The latter type of sign wears out or becomes covered with dirt, and strangers to the city are often at a loss as to where the sign is. Try a "CALL" ad.

It is arranged so that it ean be sent, just like a post card, for a cent or two, to any place in Canada or the Unied States. The endearin-? idea about it is the embedded LUMINOUS CROSS, which will shine all night long (or in anv dark room) in a GLORIOUS, MYSTIC BLUE LIGHT, after you had it exposed to daylight for a few minutes. The price is so low that anyone is enabled to be convinced of its real nautre. It is indeed an article which is held in high esteem' by any Christian family or person.

Professor Villari In a work dedicated to the late Mr. Gladstone, has much to say tn regard to the Borgias. Of Lucretia's father the followins will give one an idea aa to what one would expect the daughters to be. This eminent Italian historian says: "The name of the new Pope Alexander VI., has too evil a notoriety for it to be necessary to speak of him at length. Rorferigo Borgia was of Spanish birth, and had Btudied law in. Italy. Owing to his great facility of address, astonishing aptitude for business, particularly in the management of finance, and above all, by the favor of his uncle, Galixtus III., be had risen step by step to the rank of cardinal and Editor of The Western Call: "Lucretia Borgia'* was the chief drawing card in the moving picture business last week. Most pictures of the Italian kind are used for the glorification of the' church, but for this time the Borgias and religion were kept strictly separate. From the pictures of the notorious Lucretia one would have never known that she was the. Illegitimate daughter of his holiness Pope Alexander VI., of blessed Memory, as papal biographers would ���������ay. Let us not be too severe in passing Judgment on Lucretia and her Holy Father, for in those days when they were prominent figures in Italian life, immorality as we of today would look upon lt, was non-existant. At all public and private functions at Rome the pope's illegitimate children usually occupied the place of honor. "Burchard'a Diary" gives many instances which will prove the truthfulness of the assertion. We are indebted to the Bishop of Strasburg for the following: "On Sunday, 16th November, before luncheon, in the Apostolic Palace at St. Peter's, in the hall beyond the park, immediately after the hall of the Pontiffs, a mar-j the possession of large revenues. One rlace was contracted, by the form of ipf his. strongest passions was an in- words now prescribed, between the satiable greed for-gold, and he ac- daughter of the Lady Teodorina, cordingly formed intimate relations -laughter of our Most Holy Lord, Pope with Moors, Turks arid Jews, regard- Innocent VIII., the wife of the Lord. less ot ail the prejudices and customs Gerardo Usumare, merchant of Gen-'of his age. In this way he was enabled oa, and depository of our Most Holy!to accumulate the immense fortune Lord the Pope, and the Lord Alfonso'that served to raise him to the papacy del Carretto, Marquis of Finale, and the bridal ring was put on in the presence of our Most Holy Lord the Pope, their Most Rev. Lordships the Cardinals of St Pietro in Vlncoll and St. George, the Archbishops of Contanceo and Benevento. the Bishops of Aleria, Volterra, Tournal, Auray, Cortona, Melfltano and others. After the ceremony our Most Holy Lord left the , hall aforesaid and came to the ball of the Pontiffs with all the persobages aforesaid, where three table's were prepared for luncheon, of which tbey jaartook. At the first table aat our Most Holy Lord, with the two sajd cardinals; at the second the clergy . aforesaid and others, also the. Lord. Mattia Clbo, the apostolic sub-deason, the Lord Ilario Gentile, and certain others; at the third table, either opposite or at right angles to this, sat, the vices' of this time just as Cardinal Gibbons is denouncing the matrfmoa- ial vices of today. Savonorola was strangled and buime-1 for hia pains, just as would have beea dona to our modern Savonorola of Baltimore had he lived iu the Eosplou* age ve allude to," Of the family quarrels in the Vatican Professor Vtheri haa this to say: "Juat at this time one ef those atrocious tragedies occurred with which the Borgia family were accustomed to stir the horrors of the world, even in an age that was among the most scandalous ever recorded lb history. The Duke of Gandia. the pope's eldest Bon, was killed by a dagger- thrust on the night of the 14th of June and hi* corpse was thrown in the Tiber. His brother. Cesare Borgia, Cardinal of Valencia, was the murderer, having; been impelled, it waa said, to the crime by unnatural Jealousy on his sister Lucretia's account, and also by an unbounded ambition that could tolerate no equals In power." It ls significant that at this time when Lucretia.was at the aenith of her inglorious career a chubby flaxen- haired little'German boy was playing around the streets of a town in Saxony a boy whose name waa Martin Luther. When Martin threw off the yoke of Rome, scenes such as are here described -became lees frequent. This is one reason why the papacy should never speak - lightly of the Reformation. CHURCHMAN. The Red Coat is Robert Jackson, Peruvian Representative Here, Died Under Peculiar Circumstances. Addicted to license and sensuality, he was always the slave of some woman. At the time of his election he was the lover of the notorious Vannozza, by whom he had several children. This woman's, mother was said. to have been his. former mistress, just as he was afterwards accused ot a. shameful connection with his own arid Vannoz- *sa> daughter, Lucretia, known to all the world ae the cause of the many scandals, and sanguinary jealousies by which the name of Borgia became a disgrace to humanity." Such was the character of Lucretia's father; such was4he character of TPope Alexander VI's daughter Lucretia. But the aged pope had a large family; some historians say six sons and one daughter, and others say seven sons and Lucretia; two of whom at least gained great notoriety. Savonorola denounced Robert Jackson, Peruvian consul here, was asphyxiated on the 6th inst. at the home of his friend, Mr. F. M. Hack, who has apartments at 1748 Davie street. Mr. Hack had left Mr. Jackson in his room late in the afternoon, and when he came back about 8 o'clock he found the room full of gas and the lifeless body, of his friend lying on hia bed. The windows had been closed and the gas cock supplying the gas heater had been left open and was still pouring gas into the room when Mr. Hack arrived; ������������������.- Mr. Jackson was probably, better informed on 8outh American politics and history than any man in the city, at he had spent many years in different South American republics, and In more- thro one of them had ��������� received honors .for services to, - the. state. It is Baid tbat he was intending to leave here on April 24 to take a high government position in Peru, the country which be had represented here for sjome time. RESPLFNDANT UNIFORM TO GIV������ PLACE TO MORE SERVICEABLE KHAKI. The red coat of .the British infantryman, which, for hundreds of years has been one of tiie most striking features of the armies of the world, to to disappear, and soon the world will know no more "the thin red lines of heroes." According to well authenticated reports of the plans of the British war department, it is understood that the secretary of war will disclose in his forthcoming army estimate as onevof the principal measures of economy a proposal to abolish the famous scarlet full-dress uniform ot all the infantry lines, the royal marines and the light infantry. Khaki Preferred; The khaki service'dress is to be the uniform of the future. That prospect, particularly for the recruiting sergeant and the nursemaid in the park, la not at all pleasant, but as an economic departure the scheme has much to recommend lt. If the proposal finally comes before Parliament it is sure to meet with strenuous opposition from those who regard the bright, attractive tunics as an important stimulus to recruiting, also from those who merely consider the army as something more ornamental than necessary,������ and a wordy parliamentary war between sentimentality and utilitarian- Ism is promised. Like the Kilt*. The sentimental feeling of the English people for the historic uniforms of their soldiers, has been only .recently displayed in tbe opposition against discarding the kilts of the Highland troops. When this proposition was put forward there was a general protest, not only from the whole country and it has resulted, so far at any. rate, in the kilt being retained, and it is hardly possible that the red coat will be discarded without a struggle. ' Dashing Guardsmen.' For the moment it is- not suggested that. the .dashing guardsman ahall have the beauty of their apparel Interferred with. Neither Ib there any proposal made to strip the cavalry., royal artillery or. royal engineers of their resplendent trappings, although thiB probably will follow as a matter of course. When the change is made each infantryman will receive two khaki tunics, one to be kept for parade purposes- only. .Suggestions already are forthcom ing from the opponents of such a drastic change to khaki. They argue that it has nothing to recommend it from an aesthetic point of view. Grey is considerably more favored as the most suitable shade, and those who advocate this are probably not unmindful of the smart appearance the French infantry present in their new service dress. FRENCH EXPERTS MADE AN EX* AMINATION OP ZEPPELIN IV. AT LUNEVILLC. Paris, April 7.-���������Minute descriptions of the air cruiser Zeppelin IV, which landed at Luneville and was captured by the French, are already appearing In the French newspapers. These descriptions, which were written by ex* ports, describe the Interior of the airship in detail and show that the fears of the German army officers and newspapers that the French discovered some valuable secrets are Well founded. Many official photos of the Zeppelin ship were made while she was In the bands of the French officers. The ex* perts differ as to whether she Is really such a terrible engine of war and it is evident that there will be a long technical controversy oh thia subject. SIR WILLIAM MACKENZIE SAID TO HAVE MADE BARGAIN WITH LAZRD BROTHERS.

London, April 7.���������The story was revived here today that the Prince of Wales will visit Canada next year. While such a visit i& not Improbable, it is certain that ^o; definite arrangements have yet been made. On Friday, April 11, a large party of G. T. P. officials, including J. E.

It was Henry Frowde who pub* ltshed the lint Bible printed on the famous Oxford India paper, the secret of whose manufacture Is known to only two or three living persona. It waa he also who brought ont the "finger" prayer book, which ao hit the taate of the public that within ivn weeks of publication, 100,090 copies were sold; to be followed by the ettn handier "thumb" prayer book, the issue of which baa exceeded a quarter of a million. About these things Frowde talked ' freely when seen the other day nt bin office in Paternoster Row, near "Amen Corner," but on personal mat* ten he waa resolutely silent He let slip, however, that he knew Gladstone very well, and visited him several ' ttmea at Hawarden. "He used to talk to me a great deal," said Frowde, very seriously, "about hla dread of England's falling away into materialism. It waa entirely with a view to fighting that tend* ency that he undertook the laborlona work of editing Bishop Butlers works, his edition of which we published." The veteran publisher waa asked if the Unlvenity Press ever hsd sny specially curloua tasks to perform. o "One thing that we did," he implied, was, I think, unique.

Vancouver Horse Show Some Marvellous jtems of Growth��������� New Records Created In Every Direction $8000 in Cash Prizes 1000 Blooded Animals Will Be There 180 Classes, 60 Championships���������Second Largest Show in the World. With each day of this modern age old records go bv the board and new standards are set up that to the .initiated are indeed remarkable. For years we have heard of the onward sweep of the automobile; we have also, thought many of us that with the popularity of the horseless vehicle the horse must . sink into disuse and oblivion. But one great fact Is borne home to us that the better class of horse Is in greater demand than ever, costs moire and is receiving more attention from breeders. This is proven by the Intense Interest taken in Vancouver British Columbia, and* the entire North West in the sixth annual Vancouver Horse,Show, which Is scheduled for April 21st to 26th at Vancouver. It will ln many respects be a world beater, location and environment considered. While the Olympia show of London Is and has always been the largest in the World, outranking Madison Square Garden Show of New York. ] It will have 180 classes, of which 71 are for breeding purposes only; It will have over 1000 blooded exhibits; award over 700 ribbons, distribute $8,000 in cash and donate some twenty magnificent trophies, including the famous one from the Duke of Connaught for draught horses. it is tbe one great Social event of the year! Last year tor seventy-two hours there was a patient waiting line ���������a queue nearly 100 yards long���������waiting for tb������ box office to open to sell boxes at -176.00 each; the boxes accommodating six with art extra charge of fS.oo for each extra seat. Such then is the prestige of the Vancouver Horse Show. For one week His Majesty tbe Dorse reigns in Vancouver. His colors of purple and gold flutter from one end of Hastings to the far end bf Oranvllle; from one end of Main clear away to the palatial homes of Shaughnessy Heights. Six thousand eager devotees of pur equine friend crowd the only building on the Pacific Coast entirely devoted all the year round to the horse; and the only exclusive horse show building onthe^Cpsst. The Provincial grant for 1913 was f 4,000, but so great is the expense connected, with the Horse Show that laat year the breeding classes alone cost tbe Association 97,600, and it ts hoped in the laudable work of the Association the Province will In 1914 increase the grant. J. M. Gardbbuse, of Weston, Ont.. will Judge the heavy draught horses and the 71 classes devoted to breeding; while Captain McCann, of Hood River, will Judge the light harness class. s.He has just opened a S 150,000 horse breeding farm in Oregon.

STRONG WORD8 FOR PREACHER During the past few months the Live Stock Branch of the Dominion Department of Agriculture has been in receipt of numerous inquiries as Xp where lt might be possible to purchase either Angora or Milch goats. It would appear that in many parts of the Dominion the demand for these useful and profitable animals Is rapidly developing and that those who at present have any surplus stock can find a ready sale for them If a channel of communication between aupply and demand ia established. Accordingly, as a means of starting a convenient Directory, of Canadian Breeders ot Angora Goats and Milch Goats, the Live Stock Commissioner will be pleased to receive from such breeders InformaUoa regardiof their respective flocks covering the following points: A few months ago The Western Watchman, the organ of the Roman Catholic Church, published a sermon preached ln St. Louis by Archbishop Phelan. The following passages in the Bermon have attracted a good deal of most unfavorable comment. He said: "Tell us that we think more ot the Church than we do of the United States; of course we do. Tell us we are Catholics first and Americans or Englishmen afterwards; of course we are. Tell us, In the conflict between the Church and the civil government we take the side ot the Church; of course we do. Why, if tbe government of the United States were at war with the Church we would say tomor. row, to hell with the government of the United States; and If the Church and all the governments of the world were at war we would say, to hell They say we are Catholics first and with all the governments of the world. Americans decidedly afterwards. There is no doubt about It. We are Catholics first and we love the Church more than we love any and all the govern* ments of tbe world. Let the govern. 1 ments of the world steer clear of the] 'Catholic Church.'* And yet they won*! der why Protestants hesitate about | placing Roman Catholics tn positions of great public responsibility.

By some <jaeana which I can't understand or 'conceive, Mr. Farley has* been drawn dato a allly, stupid admission which a (woman like Mrs. Wycherly would Iknow exactly how to twist Into a genuine proposal without a loophool for vscape." <' Felix remembered his warnings on gaat head, and impatiently flung tbe gaper on the table. ��������� "Then, If he's been auch an unmitigated young fool he must ahake htm- aolf free aa best he can.

"Mr. Farley ftad no more intention of committing plmaelf with Rowena Wycherly than fan had, I am certain of it, as sure a* I shall one day lie in my grave." He looked at her long and closely. He bad never, known her to be so tenaciously positive about anything in her head "back in the room, a twinkle In bia grey eyes. "If I should happen to come across Hunter in my perambulations, aa I to beam like an anticipatory brother-in- law?" he asked; "or am I to assume a stern, stolid eaat of countenance, such aa I believe is necessary to nip bud* ding hopes in their infancy?" "Neither," ahe said, blushing a Uttle; "pretend you don't know anything about it." "Can't do that," he protested; "the fellow knows 1 had hie letter this morning. I'll say we are thinking it over." "Felix, one moment. I know you can't stop how, but tell me, do you think lt worth while to entertain the Idea at all?" "Well, Agnes," he said, coming back and closing tne door, "that ls tor you to decide. You must follow the dictates of your own heart, my dear. From my point of view Jack Hunter la a splendid fellow, a man of good, sound, solid principles, a clever, skilful surgeon, and one who has made a bit of money at hla profession. The last recommendation will be of service to blm when he comes Into the title at hla uncle's death; be will be able to wear his honors with some assumption of dignity and style. I am pretty, sure Jack would make an excellent husband, but you must remember, Agnes, thirty yeara ls rather a vast disparity to bridge, aad requires some cartful pondering. Think It over for a day or ao, child, then come and talk it over with me." The door closed with a substantial echo; he was gone for good this time, ' and Agnes waa left with her housewife's duties and a motley boat ot , thoughts that one abort October day . had no chance ot disentangling. Nor I was ahe any nearer the solution ot her own love affairs or Paul's strange predicament when at nightfall, wrapped ln a large fur cloak and a knitted tam- o'-shanter pulled over ber bronxe hair, Felix helped her Into the dogcart, and they drove away laughing and chat* ting to Weyberne Hall. e It was a merry party which .aat down to enjoy the hospitality of Sir Thomas's board. Tbe ball, of course, was the chief.topic of conversation, ' although there was some extraneous matter worthy of discussion. For instance, the approaching wadding in the Hargrave family; and Mlas Patricia Primrose bad become engaged tn Hubert Graham after twenty yeara of devotion and romantic wooing. As an Inevitable result ot this miraculous event the barrister was in a festive mood, in the seventh heaven ot delight, and unable in his great bliss to let bia eyes rove far from bis ladylove's dark piquant face as she sat smiling and daintily sipping a glass of chartreuse.

Why, I would rather wed Jack Hunter than Paul Farley, and that's saying a good deal." . "Then wbat is the cause of your Implicit faith in Farley?

The scalloped oysters, tbe soup, and the fish had already come and gone, and no convenient season had yet arrived. One reason waa becauaa Felix sat opposite to him. and whenever Miss Hay did not engage hit attention be watched hla pretty sister and her gloomy partner. The roast beef, broiled fowls, and well-seasoned aalad were ln time removed, and ware followed by the sweet and delicately- flavored Ices, and Paul waa getting restive.

He disappeared, pulled the door nearly to, then suddenly thrust bis own good fortune." be said, bis coun- tenance aglow with pride and triumph, "that I've not found time to offer you my felicitations.

"Wbo? ������V~hy yoa yooraelt I should Imagine. I venture to think no one else would Interfere In Qie matter." "How did such an interesting piece ef Intelligence come to your knowledge?" he asked, biting his Up, and twisting his long fingers round his wine-glass. "I read lt In tbe paper, ln the Times, tbla morning. You are Paul Farley, of New York, eh?" The stem of the wineglass snaooet- ln two. He caught the upper half, emptied the wine Into a tumbler, and removed the broken pieces from the cloth to his plate. The lull around the table had drifted Into silence, a deadly silence. All eyes were turned expect* antly on his white face; he opened hiB lips to speak, thought better of it, and held his peace. "I beg your pardon if I have been too premature," Graham, said, feeling he had somehow got his, foot Into an uncomfortable ruck, "but seeing It advertised, I thought the engagement was signed, sealed, all settled up, duly stamped, and the state of affairs public property. Have you not seen the paper?" "Not to-day . This la the first I've heard of it, and I think there must be some mistake. I don't believe I have the distinction of being the only Paul Farley in the States." "The Times, Jamea,"Graham said, shortly, without further argument. When the paper came he found the place, folded it neatly, and passed it across the table to Paul. He read the paragraph several times over, and finally dropped It on the floor beside blm. "If tbat statement la not correct, some kind, jovial friend given to practical joking has been playing tricks with you, Mr. Farley." "I waa not engaged wben that notice waa sent to the paper, I-���������" "Well, you've not been much forestalled, the lady or her friends probably were anxious to clench matters; that's merely a detail, ou���������" , "Hang lt all, Farley!" Sir Thomas exclaimed testily, "are yon or are you not engaged to Mra. Wycherly?" Bereft of momentary speech, he sat staring down at the remains of cheese and biscuit and broken glass on his plate. Eventually he looked at Sir Thomas in a dull sort of way, and moistened his lips. Then, suddenly, pushing his chair back, be rose and stood a minute holding on to the back. , "Let's have it before you make a bolt of It, if tbat'a your dodge." Sir Thomas exclaimed, laughing boisterously. "God bless my soul! You sly dog! HOw and when did you manage the courting? You've some presence of mind to aspire to the best catch in the county. Come, we all want" to offer our good wishes. Are you really going to marry our charming neighbor?" "YeB���������no���������I don't know���������at least I suppose so," he said, in a limp, nerveless way. "I mean I really���������" Whatever he was about to repudiate or acknowledge waa never uttered, for Judith, who had been gazing at him with white face and frightened eyea, gave a little cry, swayed forward, then sideways, swooned, and fell with an ugly thud to the floor. "Keep your. seat. Pelham," Felix Insisted, springing up and pressing Anthony back into hla seat. "I'll see to Judith." He carried her out,, and placed her , in a chair in the hall, where the door was ajar, and the night wind blew straight in from among the bending, creaking trees. Lady Hargrave, her Silken skirts raised and. hung over one arm, followed, and Paul, who held the door open for ber to.pass out,, went also. "Smelling salts?" Felix asked laconically. She looked about her, distressed, for the moment she bad no Idea where to search. Paul remembered seeing Miss Primrose sniff at a violet cut- glass bottle during dinner, and! be turned quietly back to tbe room and asked her tor it. Without a word be slipped it into tbe Squire's band, walked to the ball door, pulled lt wide back, and looked out at the -night* A few minutes of intense quietude ensued before Judith stirred, made an Inarticulate sound in her throat, then spoke clearly, in a weak, querulous tone. "What ls lt?" she asked ,an impulse of curiosity flickering among bet heavy thoughts. "Why, the beat ot the room, my dear, turned you a little faint," Lady Hargrave said soothingly. "I am afraid we have alarmed poor Anthony." "Anthony? No, not Anthony; tt was Paul, yes, Paul said be was going to marry Mrs.. Wycherly. He told me laat nlgbt���������we were, dancing, when he said he wouldn't marry Mrs. Wycherly or Agnes, or anybody, and now���������" "Hush," Lady Hargrave Implored, looking round In consternation. "My dear, the servants, Mr. Far���������" "Hush, Indeed!" she exclaimed, her eyes ablaxe with feverish, excitement,, her cheeks like a peony. "For my part I think It's time 1 spoke. I've consented to marry Anthony against my will, against my better judgment, against my Inclination, to please Paul Varley; you understand, both of you. to please him, and him alone. 1 thought I could: do anything he aaked me, aad so 1 could except���������" A strong, energetic hand cam* through Paul's arm, gripped lt flrariy 'and marched bim over the gravel, and ���������away from the house. "We will take a Urn up to the* private road and back, and go to tbe drawing-room by way of the conaorva- tory and library, lf It's all tbe same to you, Farley?" Felix aald with quiet gravity, "it's poor sport listens** to the unwholesome raving of an bystort- cal woman, mare especially when you've nursed her on your knee and petted her as a sweet. Innocent little child." "I cannot help thinking that Miss Judith Is very perverse," he made answer. "Women are perverse. I sometimes think It's this aggravating perverse- aess, tbla eaprldousnesa hi a measure tbaf attracts our sex. I believe a man la more influenced, more attracted by moods, than beauty. However, wa won't discuss Judith, we won't by word or thought add one grain, one k>te. to Lady Hargrave'* trouble. Apropos of nothing but my own thoughts, what do you think of Cecilia Hay?" "What do I think of her?" he asked slowly. "I think she la a good, dull, plodding, praiseworthy girl. I don't feel to have much ln common wltb her; still, that Is my loss, not hers. What are you thinking -yourself, sir?" "Well, I'm thinking I never saw her to greater advantage than to-night, Farley, perhaps In contradistinction to Judith, but she seems to look at life In a serious, capable way. The Hays are ooor. as I daresay you know. an������J (Continued en Page 7) LAND NOTICES tabcovteb babd bxstbicx Bistriot of Coast, Basra a TAKE notice that George Hunt of Vancouver, B..

Even the doctors seem puzzled, and they are not doing her any good. How often we hear statements like the above. Are you in such a condition If so; you should consult a Chiropractor. Have you friend or relation who is in such a state? If so, you should tell him to see a Chiropractor. A Chiropractor knows that all disease is .incoordination between the various parts of the body���������lack of harmony between the brain and the tissue cells. This is caused by pressure of nerves. The Chiropractor by a skilful movement of his hands on the spine of the sick person! removes the pressure. The nerveB which have been dormant by reason of the pressure again become active, and Nature by this means 'effects a cure. The Chiropractor never claims to cure. AH he does is to remove the pressure and thus open the door for Nature to do her wonderful work. The Chiropractor never worries himself or the patient by seeking to give a name to the trouble. The trouble is simply an effect for which there must be a cause. "Every, effect has a 7 cause." So the Chiropractor 1 finds the cause, removes it, and then in the ordinary course of things the effect should cease. There is a magazine published, in Toronto, named "The Canadian Chiropractor."

"Are you only Just back?" he aaked, surprised. "I heard wheels and a vehicle drive round to the front about ten minutes ago." "Don't apeak ao loud," aha aald, in an undertone. "Felix Is Just over there ln the stables. The mare had two shoes come loose, and we had to walk, her several miles before - we came across a blacksmith. Felix is rather put out at the animal being carelessly sent that distance* without proper inspection." "I wonder how long he will stay there?" he said, rather nettled. "Till he'a given Ralph a bit of hla mind, which he can do to some purpose lf he finds his easy-going, good- natured rule or authority Imposed upon." "Well, come in." he said, In the tone of one who was going to make the best of a trying circumstance; "I can tell you all I want you to know In a quarter of an hour." A touch of frost in the air combined with the dampnees. of the. crazy bench prevented all idea of sitting to enjoy a whispered tete-a-tete. To a certain extent the little thatched summer- house was. secluded, so they felt fairly tonVa's Ter^h^^^^ she can persuade a kindly-disposed squire of gentleman at large to offer ber his home���������that- is to say, a strong Substantial chair and a table, representing good square meals, she will end by going out into the world as an upper servant, or a lady help." "That is the unkihdest and the bitterest thing I have ever heard you say, Farley." "I feel bitter," he said, laughing unnecessarily loud. "I have had enough to make me feel so these last few days. What fellow likes to think of his friend, his dear chum, contemplating matrimony? Think of the fishing, the shooting, the driving, the hours, the happy hours in the keeping-room, it can never be the same again." - "I am not contemplating marriage, at least not yet, though some vother folks are, I trow.

Will you pass in first?" In the conservatory they found Agnes fanning herself under a palm. She smiled r.ud patted tbe vacant seat beside her, and Paul dropped obe diently into it with a sight of relief. "I shan't stop for a cigar with Sii Thomas," Felix said, looking from one to the other. "I'll have the mare put in. I suppose I shall find you here, Agnes, lf I come back in ten minutes?" "Oh, we'll be here," Paul laughed; "I'm dead beat, glued to my chair. I could sit here ten hours." "Paul," she whispered, as the Squire's tall form disappeared through the doorway, "how badly you have managed!" "Execrable management it must seem to you. I muBt tell you the whole the entrance facing one another, Paul with his left hand on her right shoulder. She clasped her sable collarette higher to her throat, for the wind came over from the plantation and caught the entry at the angle where; she stood. Her feet were numb, and she chafed her blue fingers, hoping the energetic friction would circulate the blood. ''You should have* brought your muff," he said, regretfully, taking one of her hands and holding it between ola. ���������; "How warm your hands are," she said, looking at him in the semi-darkness. "I don't feel the cold a bit," he answered smiling, "and, a tew years ago, I used to have the moat wretched chilblains. But you see, Agnes," he added seriously, "I am better housed and better ted than I've been In my life, and I drink a good deal ot wine both at luncheon and dinner, and always a flass of whiskey or other spirit before go to bed. Well-nourished blood is thick and warm, and keeps ..out the cold." "I've heard, Paul, an easy conscience Is the best cosmetic there is," she said, with a clinging pressure on his hand; "but in.your case, you naughty thing, I think it's the good living, the creature, comfoi-ts, your general well-being, that's made such an improvement in you. It's rather unfortunate, taking Mrs. Wycherly and Judith into consideration, but you certainly grow better looking every day!" He dropped the hand he was rubbing, caught her round the shoulders, laid her back upon his arm, and kissed her. A boisterous gust of wind swept across the plantation, bending the pines and bringing with it the incense from the woods. It came into the shrubbery moaning a little, and a Bhower of acorns fell wltb a rattle on the roof and sides of the summer- house. Paul lifted hia head at tbe un* familiar sound, and his dark, amused eyes lighted upon the Squire's tall form standing a couple of yards from them, witb his hands behind him, strong, lithe, and perfect aa a young tree. The sight seemed to paralyze him. Thunderstruck, and a roaring in his ears, he remained for a moment in a stooping posture, staring fixedly ��������� at the man's white face and fearless blazing eyes. Agnes twisted herself round in his arms, lifting her face to his, wondering at his rigid stiff stillness. The movement snapped the tension, his arms released, gave a warning pressure as he stood her roughly on her feet and turned her bo that she faced Felix. "Go Indoors, Agnes!" he commanded in a tone neither of them had ever heard before. "I bave a word or two to say to Mr. Farley." She came out with an averted face, but gave one glance at the suppressed rage and fury in his glittering eyes as she passed him, and stopped. . "I am waiting for you to go In," he repeated, scarcely able to control his voice. What are you going to do?" ahe suggestion of Impurity thrown otatr hla foolish though innocent antic. He turned hot and cold, and shrank from meeting the Squire's bright, scornful S. eyes with the unfamiliar, knowing expression the subject under discussion had brought into them. "Answer me ��������� instantly!" Felix shouted, taking a step towards him. "No," he said quickly, "of course, I waa not forced, but I was-not aware I was doing anything wrong, or treating Miaa Fleming in a way that a lady���������" The Squire seized him by the collar, jerked him round, and hla startled eyea caught sight of the leather thong of his rldlng-whlp. "One moment," he protested, struggling fruitlessly in the Squire'* steel grip, "don't Btrike me before you know the rights of the caae, or yoa may be sorry for it afterwards." "Sorry!" he mimicked, with a grim laugh, "sorry for thrashing a well-behaved suave reptile like you? I am going to protect my slater's good name, safeguard her reputation, and teach you how to control your lower nature, how to treat what you may style a 'good woman,' and punish you tor tampering with a woman tor, whom you have assured me over and over again you had no other feeling than ordinary: friendship, and to whom you would on no account bind yourself; also for holding .embracing, and caressing my sister aa you might any draggle-tailed wench on the, streets." - Paul struggled round to face him aa best_he could. _ ��������� _ (To be Continued) Students Gathered At Annual Banqoet The sixth annual banquet of tha Vancouver Law Students' Society, which was held at the University Clak- on Saturday evening- waa an enjoyable j-affair.

His eyes followed her retreating figure; he did not withdraw them, till she was wholly out of sight, and then he turned to the young man standing a step above him, framed by tbe rustic ruined porch.

Friday. April 11,1913 V Notes From Ottawa (Continued from page 1) "Wa* an utterance well prepared and excellently delivered. A Western Ontario member who stands close to the ministry and is always to be counted upon ��������� in any changes that may take place during the next few years is Mr. Joseph E. Armstrong, member for East Lambton. Mr. Armstrong made a name for himself while the Conservative party were in Opposition, hot only as a sound critic of the Government of the day, but along constructive lines as well, for there was no man who contributed more in the House to the bringing into baing of the great idea of rui*al. mail delivery. This session he is seeing brought about another great idea that he has long advocated���������namely a system of parcels post. ?o postal matters in general Mr. Armstrong gave a great amount of attention during days of Opposition, spending weeks at a time in investigating at first hand the working ont of big postal problems in the United States. That the Liberal Government on the eve of the election of 1908 seized his rural delivery idea in its entirety and took to itself credit for the same did not to any great extent detract from lite fact that it was to the member for East Lambton the House and the country owed the debt for tiie information and argument that had made the carrying out of the project so comparatively easy. ^ This session Mr. Armstrong has done some of his best work in committee. He has been particularly prominent in the Banking and Agricultural Committees, his share in the work of the latter having been noteworthy. There are few men who, taking it all around, stand nearer to the cabinet rank. ' The close of the week found the Liberal party again proclaiming their intention of obstructing the navy bill and of holding up all public business; It remains to be seen to what extent they wilt carry out the threats they were making on , Friday and Saturday, but it indicates at least that the wing of the party that is led by Hon. .William Pugsley is in control. , The followers of the ex-minister of public woriTs are boasting that they will turn the House ���������f ^Commons into a "bear garden" and that the disgraceful scenes of Saturday, March 15, will loon like a pink tea or a Quaker prayer meeting in comparison. It was Puglsey who was responsible for the rowdy scenes of that memorable Saturday night, and apparently the ex-minister is M-epared to still lower the Parliament of Canada. 'f'tigsiey is ambitious to be the successor of Sir ���������Wilfrid t*wier-���������that is an open secret at Ottawa. ' Re has taken this notorious way of going about it. TJlie needs of the Empire, Canada's duty to England, and the self-respect of the Dominion, all must be sacrificed tosatisfy the personal ambi- ij*om # Mr.. Pugsley and1 a few ex-cabinet ministers. As for the position of the Government, it js clear as,4t h������s been for a long time. The Government wilt not submit to minority rule, and has go intention of dissolving Parliament just to suit file fancy of discredited politicians.- If the bill is aj-ain abstracted and Parliamentary anarchy is again instituted a change of the rules will be Jjtfde so that while free speech can be protected, ������; minority cannot put spokes into the wheels of the Government, and cannot hold up the King's business, jf the naval bill can be passed without ������ti������h an amendment to the rules so much the better,- but passed it must be. ' It was very plain in the later part of the week that Pugsley was in control or was trying to get it. He objected at every turn to the passing of the one-sixth of the estimates. He was finally very reluctantly forced to agree. When the Japanese treaty came up Sir Wilfrid announced that the bill would be allowed to go through without practically any debate.. They were not opposed to the bill. - But Pugsley apparently over-rode him, assumed command, and it took two days solid talking on subjects which were worn threadbare to get the measure through. The main point iii the Japanese treaty was the clause reserving to Canada the right to contrpl its own immigration affairs. The difference between the policy of the old Government and the present Administration was clearly illustrated by Premier Borden. The late Government dealt with the excess of immigration into Canada from Japan by an appeal to the Government of Japan. "Our view," said the Premier, "is that while friendly with Japan and ready to co-operate in the broadest way,, and while we have confidence that the Japanese Government will carry out loyally the arrangement made, yet final control will be with the Parliament and the Government of Canada. When this bill becomes law it will retain to Canada the control over immigration from Japan as from all countries of the world.v ..;;.,.'.,.. H. H. Stevens, membfei- for V&neouverj who is recognized as an authority on the question of Asiatic immigration also emphasized this point in an able speech dealing with the question. "The restriction of immigration," explained Mr. Stevens, "was instituted voluntarily by the Japanese Government, as a result of the agitation in British Columbia, and the repeated demands of the Imperial Government and:Tthe Government of British Columbia has resulted, up to the present, in keeping immigration from Japan within reasonable bounds. The Prime Minister stated. this afternoo^-tbjftt so far as this agreement, or voluntary restriction of immigration from Japan, is concerned;.hVwould be continued by the Japanese Government, and that will satisfy the people of British Columbia that the present Government of Canada is alive to its duties and ready to protect the interests of the country. I "believe that this is a dignified agreement, and a dignified method to deal with this question. The people of Japan have said that this provision of our bill does not offend them, that it does not affect their national dignity or their national pride; and at the same time, the immigration is duly and properly restricted." In closing he said: "I conclude by congratulating the Government upon making this very satisfactory arrangement, an arrangement that we in the West have looked forward to for many years. - -| would suggest to this Government the advtoWHty of opening with China negotiations along the same line. I have had the pleasure of travelling in the Orient, both in Japan and in China, to:some considerable extent, and I can assure you, Mr. Speaker and this House, that the time is coming at no very distant day when it will be an exceedingly advisable thing for a country to have commercial relations with these eastern countries. I hope the Bight Honorable the Prime Minister will take that into his consideration* and i������ the. proper time and in the proper way" Will liriWgyin some such measure as that now before lis." t IheM Real Bargain" Haniware Store OP QAUUTY AND QUANTITY The CHARM Steel Ranges Made for us and guaranteed by one of the oldest Canadian manufacturers.

'From the days of Garibaldi to the present they have been cutting loose from that .strange "New Religion,*' until they insist on having their destiny in their own hands. They say in clear and strong terms to the whole world, including the priests of that "New Religion," that henceforth their children must learn in the national schools, and all hindrances and hinderers thereto must stand baek or be swept aside. Here, in Vancouver, we have large numbers , of the sons and daughters of Italy; and even here they are pestered with numerous attempts made to prevent their children receiving a free, .first-class, national education. But to our Italian ' citizens we would say stand Sua, hold to the high lines of intellectual manhood, freedom aud independence. Let no man, no> eleric, no soul on earth, fool on frighten you and your c&Uditen out of your glorious Canadian inheritance. Go to-the public schools) to the^ high s-thoojs, end to our colleges if you are to be successful iu the highest walks of life in your adopted Cltwadiau home. If you are satisfied with a third rate place amongst our citizens you���������������������������can succeed by giving up your children's' educational rights and intellectual freedom to those who would control you and drag you down to a level with Italy in the days of her worst and in her degradation. My interest in my country and in all Jier citizens makes it expedient for me to write this short epistle. THE SACRED OAK OP SCRIPTURE. A few quotations will gjive us an insight into the importance of the Oak ef the Bible. "Jacob hid them under the Oak which was by Shechem." "And there came an angel of the Lord and sat under an Oak which was in 0-phra." "Gideon brought broth to the angel under the Oak." "They found the man of God sitting-under an Oak." "They buried Saul and his sons under the Oak in Jabesh." "They had idols under every thick Oak," "And Joshua wrote these words in a book in the Law; of God, and took a great stone and set it up under an Oak by the sanctuary of the Lord." "They buried Deborah beneath Bethel under an Oak." In Isaiah 44-14 we read that the Oak was used in making images for worship. In Hosea 443: "They sacrifice under Oaks,.',' Zecb.11-2: "Howl, 0 ye Oaks of Bashan." There are many other passages which show that the oak was held in esteem and was a sacred tree among the Israelites of old>. No wonder thst their descendants, the Druids, held the oak as a sacred tree. In fact, the more carefully we look into the wbole history of the Druids and compare with ancient Israel, the more surely we must become interested in the wonderful similarity. Conviction of IDENTITY has come to very many students who scan the whelg Ehe of identical characteristics.
