In the death ot Lady Laurier Canada has lost not only the Widow of one of 'its leading statesmen, but one of the best and most womanly of women. 'A country seldom realizes the debt it often owes to the wife of a statesman. Many a great man would have been less great, -perhaps even a failure, if linked to him in his home had not been a wife equally noble in character within her sphere. Gladstone is a case in point. However unswerving an opponent of Gladstone's policies, one must admire Gladstone's strength of character, the sterling moral fibre of the man. Recent biographies have shown up the part which Mrs. Gladstone played, a true helpmeet, an unfailing source of strength and courage and steadfastness. Lady Laurier was of the same school of womanhood. All honor to her and to the millions of women of equal nobility of soul who are seldom heard of in the noise and clangor of this world of ours, but upon whom so much of the future of civilization depends. rsyclioloalsls have proved that a sunshiny dining room Is conductive to (rood digestion and general optimism nt mealtime. The chccrlness thnt emanates from riowerlng plants is almost equally ns necessary In tho dining room as sunshine. Many women have poor success with regular plnnts; and mnny others who do hnvo success witli in-door plants havo tried forcing theve plants with the result lhat now1, nt tho beginning of winter, the plants are In need of u rest und refuse to bloom. Such women should resort to the planting of bulbs in rotation. Or course, thero Is the question of expense to ho considered In this plnn. Qood bulbs, nnd enough of them so thnt about 3 bulbs can ho planted ev.ry two weeks from now till January first, will cost several dollars. But to my mind. It Is several dollars well spent. For, for this sum one cnn hnve bright, cheery flowers now until February first—when our regular potted plants nre ready to flower or when our spring seeds nre ready to be planted. A good choice Is: first Hyacinths ill,,ll:,mi nnd l:■ .111:1111: second, curly TuIIiih; third, Narcissi (Van Hlon. Hors- fledll, Empress, Trumpet Major nnd Paper White—the flv. best forcing varieties); fourth, Bermuda Lilies, more commonly known as Easter Lilies nnd cntnlogued oa "L. Harl.ll." I hn\e named these In the order of tholr planting. For economy's enke plnnt three In the seme pot. The Chang, es in Travel Years. in 70 That veteran author, publicist and charming as well as thoughtful writer, Frederic Harrison, has given in two articles in the London Times his impressions of travel old and new, the old embracing journey- ings of a leisurely character in Prance, Germany, Switzerland and Italy in the '40s and '50s of the past century, and the new visits to those countries in recent yeara. As Mr. Harrison reached his ninetieth; year last month, his reminiscences of travel cover seventy-five years —a longer retrospect than is given to most men. He began his travels as a youth just fresh from Oxford and in "an era before the railways, before ugly new buildings and worse 'restorations,' before circular tours and colossal hotels," and, to a certain extent, he is able to take his readers of today back to times that seem so remote. He spent the autumns of 1845-6-7 in France in the homes of people with whom he was intimate. In 1IS1 I sulled up the Rhine, drove into the Black Forest, thel) was all over Swltserlnnd, Inlo Italy, and 10 to Paris In the Second Republic. In 18K3 we drove about the Rhone country, and then all along Ihe Riviera from Cannes to Genoa, and thence to Tuscany nnd Florence. In lllr, I wns all over Lombardy and then tn Verona and Venice; nnd I spent the autumn of 186S In Romo and the country around. Since then I have watched the "progress*'—may I say the vulgarising?—of Europe almost year by year. My last climb on the enow Alps was In 1014: my last visit to France was in 191G. Certainly, if any one knows the countries of Southern Europe well it ought to be this indefatigable traveler, who in travel, as in other things, had the seeing eye and the understanding and remembering heart. As to the general aspect of these countries seventy or seventy- five years ago he says: The charm was In tho novolty, the qualntnesn, the old world air of every new place. A Belgian town then was quite unlike any other: still more unlike was a Rhenish town. In Oermany, the people, the habits, the buildings wore In strong contrast to the Italian. France had, everywhere before t)ie Empire, a pre-revolutlon, provincial aspect. Frenchmen wer- etlll the most gay, cheery, wlttles* Idealists In all Europe. In the '40s partly in the '(0s, even up to th> savage war of 1870. the deep International hatreds and Jealousloe- ]>:i not matured. French, Germans, English tot Italians could talk plena- antly In trains, coaches or hotels. * * • The separate table, the "reserved" coach, had not beon Installed. The gloom of national acorn and reveng1 had not settled upon Europe, W found a common enjoymont ln alt w met. As to the actual changes by which travel has been, accord- inn to Mr. Harrison, "standardised" and "vulgarized," and cities and towns "brought up to date," he gives many examples', but it if pleasant to note that pot .-: formations In knowledge. Thousands now go where only tens could go then. Europe hns boen opened to tho masses. made familiar to the least learned, (o the most moderate purse. N'ew worlds of bcauly and of history hnvo been revealed. • • • I write only to remind the traveling world how much has boen sacrificed to their comfort and their gain. On the whole, then, the reader and the tourjst of today may congratulate himself on the changes in the past three-quarters of a century as respects foreign travel—changes which have made it possible to cover at least the ground Mr. Harrison did in his almost uncounted journeyings, spread over seventy years, in a few months' time. $Ka~a*jbU_S BYLENOH bulbs may touch eftch other in tho pot.

This brought forward the question of what should he done to secure quality In this regard account must be taken or the great disadvantage of Interfering with legitimate business. The grading of hogs was surrounded Willi many difficulties, but tho resolution adopted at the conference and any action taken with a view of placing thu hog Industry on u firm basis would receive his tdrungest encouragement.

The question of the rights of tbls ur that man, this or that business, this or that province, he said, should be a consideration aftor the greatest advantuge to Canada had been considered This policy had not been followed to thc greatest extent In tho past. Tho decision In favor of establishing a standard for the grad* lng of hogs was simply pointing the way. Quality from Canada on every one of her products would enable her to conquer the markets of the world. Butter trom Alberta and Saskatchewan stood highest In England today because It was of guaranteed quality. Quality was a necessity and every- th.ng i-i.---.itd-' tu bring It about should be done. "We have been fighting for quality and quantity, but wu have neglected the markets," Mr. Hoadley concluded; "Wi- must fight for markets, but we must keep In mind that grading Is a necessity to Inaure^quality." gome San Francisco women play golf carrying their babies In golf stlolc bags.
