M. P. Eckhardt, who ls rec-\nognlzed ln Canada as somewhat of an\nauthority on banking and financial\nmatters has an interesting article in\nSaturday Night, on the popular belief\nthat a bank is obliged to redeem its\nnotes in gold on dtiiv.uul. He taken\nas his text the experience of a lady\nwho presented a ten dollar note of a\ncertain bunk ut one of Its branches located ln a country town and asked for\na gold piece of the sums denomination ln exchange. The manager of tho\nbranch Informed her that he had no\ngold on hand ut the moment, but that\nhe would send for a coin if she wished\nhim to do so. lhe coin was sent for\nand ln delivering it to the customer\nthe bank charged ten cents to cover\ncost of transporting the money.\nAbout this charge a difference of\nopinion exists, says the writer. The\nbank officials considered lt light and\nproper; otherwise lt would not have\nbeen made. The customer and others\nconsider that the bank should have\nmade no charge. They base their\nopinion on the belief that the bunk\nshould stand ready to pay gold for its\nnotes when gold is demanded. This\nbelief, by the way, ls widely held.\nMany people consider that according\nto Canadian law the banks aro under\nobligation to redeem their notes In\ngold lf the note holders insist upon\ngold. But this ls entirely wrong. A\nbank's note, while ln circulation, represents a debt of tho bank. The bank\nIs the debtor; the h >lder of the note\nis the creditor.\nLegal   Tender.\nNow, the law has designate! certain\nforms of money as \"legal tender.' It\nsays distinctly, that If any debtor ton-1\nders payment of his debt at its ma-\nturlty ln any of these forms of legal I\ntender his creditor ls bound to accept\nthe payment and discharge tho debt.\nA debtor may offer rayment of his\ndebt as follows: In the copper or\nbronze coins of th^ Dominion of Canada\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdup to 25 cents; ln tb-3 sliver\ncoins of the Dominion of Canada\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdup\nto ten dollara\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdln Dominion notes\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdup\nto an unlimited amount and In United\nStates gold coins\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdup to an unlimited amount. A bank has the same right\nor privilege as another debtor. When\na creditor presents its notes at a\nplace where they are payable, it cau\ntender payment In any of the above\nforms of legal tender, viz., In silver,\nup to ten dollars; in Dominion notes,\nHritish gold coins or United Statea\ngold coins, to an unlimited amount. So\nit is clear that even if the law required a Canadian chartered bank to\nredeem its notes at all of Its branches\nthe bank need not pay ln gold.\nAt the Branches.\nBut the law does not require a bank\nto redeem Its notes at ail branches.\nA section of the Bank Act reads -is\nfollows:\n\"The bank shall make such arrangements as are necessary to ensure the circulation at par, in any and\nevery part ot Canada ot all notes issued or re-lasued by lt and Intended\nfor circulation; and towards this purpose tbe bunk sball establish agencies\nfor the redemption and payment of tts\nnotes at 'Toronto, Montreal. Halifax,\nSt. John, Winnipeg, Victoria, Ch-ir-\nlottetown, and at such other places as\nare from time to time designated by\nthe treasury board.\"\nIn the draft bill introduced by tho\n1 late   government   for   renewing   the\nBank Act, Regina and Edmonton wero\nadded to this list.\nWhile it is not expressly stated, tho\nobligation to redeem their note issues\nat all these points, by means of\nbranches or redemption agencies, is\nhere placed by implication upon th.)\nbanks. A following sub-section states\nthat \"the chief place of business of\nthe places at which Its notes ore made\npayable.\nSo, according to the  Bank Act, one\nmight say that the notes of any Canadian bank are payable at the  cities\nnamed above and also at Its chief or\nprincipal    branch    lf  auch    principal\nbranch is in  some city   other   than\nthose named.   The bank Is under ob-1\nligation to redeem Its notes ll. e\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd pay-\ncash for them), when presented at its\nbranches or agencies in these cities.\nSo far aB other branches are concern I\ned, its duties in connection   with its j\nnote issue nre covered by the follow-!\nlng section:    \"The bank shall always!\nreceive in payment its own notes.  At i\npar at any of Its offices, and whether I\nthey are made payable there or not.\" !\nThat is, It muBt receive them at par j\non deposit or ln payment of debts due\nthe bank.\nHow an Enemy Might Score.\nManifestly, It would not do to compel tlie banks to give legal tender a.*. I\nall or any branches for any quantity\nof notes that might be presented, lf\nthat were the lay au enemy of th\ufffd\ufffd\nbank might throw it Into Insolvency |\nthrough collecting a large number of\nits own notes and presenting them at\na small, out-of-the-way brunch with a\ndemand for legal tender. It would\nnot do to have the whole note Issue of\na bank payable at every small office\nestablished by It.\nSo, It ls cl?ar that the manager of\nthe branch hank referred to at the be-\nginnine. of this article was under no\nobligation to pay eo'd on demand for\na ton .lollar note of the bank. Legally,\nhis 'iranch was not under obligation\nto redeem the note fi, e.. to pay fo.\"\nIt), though lt was obligated to receive\nit at par on .Jcposit or in pivment. of\na debt due to the ban'?. The request\nfor a gold coin, therefore, presented a request, by the customer for the\nbank to undertake a special financial\ntransaction, which consisted, ln bringing a piece of gold from another\nbranch.\nWith reference to payments mndo\nby the bankB. the Rank ^ct says that.\nIn making any pavment the bank shall\n\"on the ren-\"est of the person to whom\nthe payment Is to be made, pay the\ns'ime. or such part, thereof, not exceeding one hundred 'oI't*. as such\nI orson requests, in rwmlnlon not\" for I\none. two or four dollars, each, at the\nopt'on of such person.\"\nThin i-ftert* to a debt of the bank.\nThe holder of a chef hip or -'n.fi dr--'-i\n(a...

He smoked,\nlie read, he wrote, he talked. He\nnever walked but he kept himself ln\ngood health hy eating veiy modeiataly j\nand drank nothing.

He was a\ngrandson of George I. of England. He\nsent a sword to George Washington,\nwhich was Inscribed, \"From the\noldest general in the world to the\ngreatest.\" Four nations, therefore,\nhave reason to hold ln remembrance\nthe great Prussian, though it must be\nconfessed that his relationship to the\nHouse of Hanover dil not Inspire bim\nwith affection for the English. He\nei en went so far as to Impose a cattle\ntax on all Hessians passing througn\nhis kingdom to take service with the\nEnglish army.\nFrederick and William.\nAlthough Frtderlck II. left no children, being succeeded by his nephew,\nlt has not escaped attention that in\nmany respects    he had qualities    in\ncommon with the yresent Kmperor ot\nGermany.      A lover of music and of\nliterature and a delight in composing\nare common   attributes.      Frederick,\nUke William, was a very hard worker, on some occasions goin^ for weeks\nat a time with only four hours' sjeep\nout of the twenty-four.   No man more\nthoroughly devote! himself to furthering what he believed to be the interests c   his, people than Frederick. He\nvu    a    mail    ot  large    naturfe',\"'aaa\nthough his power was autocraitW hftV\ndid not object to criticism nor tothfe^\ncrude    and   sometimes  cutting    lampoons of which he was made the victim.    \"My  people    and I,\"  said Old\nFritz, \"understand each other.   They\nare to say what they like; and I am\nto do what 1 like.\"    From which it\nwould appear that he was not without a strong sense of humor.   He was\nextremely democratic, and belonged to\nthat    school  of great    generals  who\nnever expected their soldiers to undergo greater hardships than tbey themselves were willing to face.   It was on\nthis account that be was able to command tbe devotion of his troops to an\nextent hardly surpassed    ln    military\nhistory.        .\nFather and  Son.\nIn his life tbere ia much that might\nbe quoted in support of the theory\nthat genius is akin to madness. He\nnever lived with his wife. When he\ndied it -e aa found that he did not own\na decent shirt, and so he was buried\nin his night gown. His father, too',\nwas more than \"queer.\" It was his\ngreat ambition to form a corps ot\ngiant soldiers, and to marry them to\ngigantic women in the hope that their\nsons would be still more formidable\nln appearance. He entertained a hatred lor his son Frederick and hls\ndaughter Wllhelmina that was almost\na mania. Until he reached the age at\n20 Frederick was subjected to the\nmost cruel tyranny. He had only to\nmanifest the slightest Interest in an\/\nstudy to have lt forbidden him. Hb\nmost innocent enjoyments were curbed, and it is not to wondered at that\nhe consoled himself with secret diversions that were not always so Innocent. In desperation he fled to England, but was arrested and brought\nback. He was forced to be present at\nthe execution of a friend who ha.l aid\ned him to escape, and hls own life\nwould havo been taken had not the\nEmperor of Germany and two or three\nother monarchs Interposed.\nA  Bitter Rstort.\nAL.

' \ufffd\ufffdwring the Jjtief service the doors aTS elosed, snd no\nstrangers or reporters'are allowed to\nbe pjespnt. Bffmtol of the Press Gal-\nlery are not allowed to take their seats\nduring  prayers.\nIt i.s a noticeable fnct that, however crowded may be the House during thu service, the Treasury and\nthe front Opposition benches are always  empty.\nThe House of Commons, unfortunately, only provides sitting accommodation for about half of its 670 members; and it is a rule ol Parliament\nthat a member who is present at pray,\ners is entitled to retain the place he\nthen occupies against all comers until the House rises. Thus, if a legis-\nlstor is anxious to listen to or take\npart i.i an important debate, he can\nonly make sure of a seat by claiming\nit at prayer-time.\nTo make quite sur? of the seat he\nhas thus secured he takes from a box\non the table a small card bearing the\nwords \"At prayers\"; he writes his\nname on it. and places it in a slot\nprovided for the purpose nt the back\nof his seat. This done, his seat, for\nthe rest of the day. is as inviolable\nas the crown itself. He can leave the\nHouse when he pleases and for any\nlength of time; others may occupy\nhis seat during his absence; but the\nmoment, he returns the interloper\nmust yacate it in  his favor.\nFor Cabinet Ministers and ex-Min-\nisters seats on the front benches are\nalways reserved. There is no need to\nestablish a right to them from day\nto day. And thus it is that these\nbenches are deserted; and that many\na man who attends church but seldom\nis to be seen in his place during\nprayers, as apparently devout as any\nof his more piously-minded fellows.\nIn addition, however, to the daily\nreligious service in the House of Com-\nnions there is a meeting for prayer\nheld weekly in one of the rooms of\nthe House.\nA DOMINIE PRESIDENT\nDrunkards'  Patron Saint.\nWhat hits come to be known as St.\nMartin's Summer consist; of a few\nlovely days about the second week of\nNovember. We hear a great deal\nabout St. Luke's Summer; but St.\nMartin's Summer and his name-day.\nNovember 11, suffer neglect\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdpossibly\nbecause the saint was French, and\nnot English.\nPerhaps, too, th\ufffd\ufffd knowledtre t^at he\nis the patron saint of drunkards has\nnot added to his reputation. That offlce came tp him by accident. The\nreason he had thus doubtful honor\nthrust upon him after his death was\nrather curicus. The Vinalia, or Feast\nof Bncchus, was always celebrated\non November 11. La*er, when the\nChristians decided to merge Bncchus\ninto Rt. Martin, the reputation ot the\nformer was unfortunately handed on\nto the saint, although quite unmerited\nby him.\nBefore his conversion he was a military tribun0, stationed at Amiens.\nWhen one day, go the story goes, in\nmidwinter, at the city gate of Amiens\na miserable beggar appealed to him\nfor help, the soldier drew his sword,\nand, dividing his cloak, gave half of\nIt to the wretched beggar. At night,\nso it is said, Christ in person appeared to the astonished soldier, clad in\nthe very cloak he had divided with the\nbeggar a few hours before.\nAnother legend is that the saint,\nhaving been annoyed by the behavior of one of the geese in his poultry-\nysrd, ordered it to be slain nnd served up for dinner. He died immediately after partaking of it, snd the anniversary has ever since been observed\nin France by the eating of goose on\nthat day, November 11.\nMorris' Dream Poem.\nColeridge wss not the only great\npoet who sometimes dreamt in song.\nI was talking, says a correspondent,\nto William Morris about Coleridge\nnnd his wonderful dream fragment.\nMorris was eloquent in its praise,\nand I inquired of him if he, too.\never wrote poems in his sleep. Moms\nsat down promptly in a sent\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdwe were\nwalking in his big garden at the\nback of Kelmscott House\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdnnd brok\"\nInto one of his big laughs. \"Oh,\nyes,\" he said. \"One night 1 had b\ufffd\ufffden\nreading 'Kubla KliaV again and wi,h-\nlng that I could dream anything iialf\nag flno. And I did dream a piem that\nmove;! me to actual tears by its beauty.\" \"And did you remnmb'r it when\nyou woke up?\" I asked. \" Yes.\" said\nMorris grimly, \"one line. And the\nline ran:\nThe moonlight slept on a treacle sea.\n\"And then I ceased to weep,\" he\nadded, \"and haven't wished to dream\npoems again.\"\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdLondon StaudarJ.\nSir W. E. Smith's Career.\nSir William \ufffd\ufffd. Smith, who succeds\nSir Philip Watts ns Britisli Director\nof Naval Construction, lived in his\nvonth among seamen. He joined the\nPortsmouth Dockyard when 11 year*\nof age.- His flrst work was as tope-\nhouse boy, when ns such he came in\ncon'.ict with all the mysteries of the\nold sailing ship era. In 18fl5 h\ufffd\ufffd was\napprenticed as a shipwright at Woolwich. In the following year he waa\ntransferred to the Portsmouth Dockyard. Having spent fo-\ufffd\ufffd years' ap-\nprenticeship, he joined the South Ken-\nsington School of Naval Architecture\nin 1899. and the Hoyal Corps of Naval\nConductors in 1873.\nThe eyes of other people ar* th* ayes\nSlut mln us.-Franklin.\nNot Tied to Them.\nThe Archbishop ol York was a great\nfavorite with the royal family, and a\nprincess upon one occasion told him\nhe ought to marry, as a wife would be\noi more use to him than a dozen curates.\n\"But supposing we didn't agreeP\"\nhe asked.\n\"Well, you don't always agr.ee with\nyour curates, do you?\"\n\"No; but then I can always send\nthem away!

At the annual conference ot Canadian Clubs, held in Winnipeg lust\nsummer, Mr. W. S. Carter. M.A.,\nLL.D., 'nas elected president of the\nAssociation for all Canada. The chief\naim of the great speech-after-luncheon\nmovement, founded by Charles McCul-\nlough, in Hamilton, in 1893, is to teach\ntrue Canadian nationalism. As a\nschool teacher\" starting humbly down\nin New Brunswick, and climbing until\nin 190!) he became Superintendent of\nEducation for the Province, Dr. Car-\nPSM\nMR. W. S. CARTKR, M.A., LL.O.\ntor has probably had more experience\nelucidating eloquently the virtues of\nCanadianism, than many of tho business men who belong to the Canadian\nClub, and have not encountered\nYoung Canada in the raw as he has.\nBchool teachers and university professors are too infrequently called to\nidentify themselves officially with\nbroad national movements in this\ncountry. This is not so in France\nand Germany and oth:.- European\ncountries wir-e pedagogues sometimes lead revolutions and sre msde\nheroes of novels.\nAs head of the Association of\nCanadian Clubs, he will have an opportunity to organize public opinion\nin a quiet but effective way. The Association represents sli th\" Canadian\nclubs of the Dominion, but has n o\npower over them, either in administration or in legislation. Its chief\nbusiness is to unity opinion and experience in Canadian Club work, to\nhelp the weaker clubs, at ' to assist\nip founding new clubs. Its influence!\nis thus incidental, but none the less\nimportant.\nPrisoners of Parliament.\nNot everyone is aware that the\nBritish Houses of Parliament have\ntheir own prison. Yet situated hig.'i\nup in the Clock Tower is the M.P.'s\nprison, consisting of six rooms\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdfour\nbed-rooms  and   two  sitting-rooms.\nTho honorable member who has\nbeen dishonored by imprisonment\nfor a breach of Parliamentary etiquette does not have such a very\nhard life in St. Stephen's prison.\nThe prisoner's meals sre sent up to\nhim from the House of Commons'\nkitchens, and he can choose whatever\ndishes he likes from the ordinary\nmenu. Unlike an ordinary prisoner,\nhe receives the bill for his meals\nfrom  the catering authorities!\nPerhaps the best-remembered occupant of Parliament's prison was Mr.\nBrad laugh, who was sentenced by\nMr. Speaker to imprisonment in th)\nClock Tower for refusing to withdraw\nwhen requested tri to do.\nOffenders against Parliament other\nthan members have before now been\nsentenced to imprisonment in the\nClock Tower.' These \"outsiders\" have\nincluded several public speakers and\nthe editor of a prominent newspaper.\nNEW    WESTMINSTER    MAIL\nArrival: Closing:\n18:19\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdUnited (Mates via C. P.
