Though the honorable Justice Morrison yesterday left the way open to the city to continue the pile driving operations on the harbor improvement scheme by dissolving the Injunction which James Anderson of the St Mungo cannery had placed on the work, the harbor committee of the city council, of which Alderman Annandale is chairman, is not going to rush into another blind alley without knowing whether or not there ls an outlet and so the big pile driver will not start tapping again till some effort has been made to reach an amicable agreement between the St. Mungo company and the city. In handing down written judgment i in the Injunction proceedings yesterday the honorable Justice Morrison | separated the conflict over the validity of the lease from the pi.e driving operations question, leaving the former to be fought out in the courts at a regular trial, which will come on as soon as possible if no settlement is made cut of court, and setting the latter matter on a basis of damagei and compensation, also to be decided late:. City May Proceed. The decision of the court rendered yesterday allows the city to go ahead with the harbor improvement work in front of the St. Mungo plant, subject to damages which may be collected later when the correct amount of com- periaatjon.

Mr. Annandale said ho had always considered the matter of compensation and this phase of the case would be bound to enter Into any negotiations which might be opened with Mr. Anderson. \V. J. Whiteside, who is representing the St. Mungo cannery, said his clients were prepared to go to trial today on the matter but he did not think a hearing of the case could be brought on for some time. He did not consider that the judgment meant anything at all as far as his clients' side of the case was concerned, as it merely allowed the city to go ahead with its work subject to damages to be collected later.

The first round in the fight over the harbor improvement question goes to the city. Yesterday, in dissolving the injunction which has held up the work along the waterfront, the honorable Justice Morrison said that, while Mr. Anderson may have something coming to him as compensation, still any damages to which he may be entitled can be adequately discharged by a relatively small money payment, while the lease question is a legal one with no bearing on the pile driving operations. His lordship appears to have taken a very businesslike view of the case and has endeavored to protect both parties concerned, the city antl the St. Mungo Canning com- panv. He felt that the St. Mungo, as a private corporation, was taking too great a risk in holding up work of *;;Xs^JluecTT t^, such large proportions as the harbor improvement scheme, since, should the ultimate decision go against the company, the damages accruing to the city might be so high as to financially embarrass the plaintiff company. On the other hand, the judge felt that the city is and will be in a position to take care of any damages assessed against it shotild ihe final trial be decided against it.

' the city the damages granted should not be very large and Oregon boundary had been settled that outside of whatever right the company may or may not have to compensation from the city its cause does not carry sufficient weight to hold up a public work of the magnitude of the harbor improvement scheme.

Had they thought it worth while, they might have maintained their footing: but as they did nol do so. their presence is merely an interesting episode destined to have no permanent effect. What marks they left of their presence along the coast have disappeared, with the exception of a few of their more pronouncable geographical designations. To the many English explorers ot greater and leas renown who pushed their seemingly frail, wave-nattered vessels into every gulf or bay from Cape Horn to the Arctic Circle, the!" proper mead of praise is given, to- mate r toiling and striving. But though they did much that for ever must endear them to those who can appreciate the romance of the sea, their woik might Hiving got the railway, the next thing was to put responsible government on a stable basis. In altruistic mood the people determined to try the experiment of administration without political parties. What happened while this was going on needs no retelling here. Those who do not agree with Mr. Gosnell's views will not agree with him, and that is pretty nearly all the comment a prudent or peaceful man would care to offer. Tills period was brought to a close with the coming into power of the government of Sir Richard McBride, which at the presoiit writing is still going strong.

Out of 1,300,000 combatants, 286,200 were killed or wounded, 21.5 per cent, of the male population. If one makes an identical calculation for each of the four countries one arrives at the following result: Montenegro, 37.3 per cent.; Bulgaria, 26 per cent.; Servia, 17.7 per cent., and Qreece, li; per cent.

March 2.-���Changes, which have for tiieir object the increase in the efficiency of the work of the provincial police department, are contemplated by the provincial government, and in the estimates just laid before lhe legislature, provision has been made for additions to the force. It is poposed to appoint a chief detective, with assistant, and also another inspector, making two inspectors, instead of one as now engaged. Superintendent Colin Campbell, head of the provincial police department, stated that it had been found advls-l able to appoint detectives, whose duty It will be to take hold of important cases and work up the evidence required and stay with the case until it is completed. At present, when an important mater must he investigated, the regular members of the department in the district in which the cases develop must attend to it. There may be several important matters requiring attention, and the re- ault has teen that, while these are be- bag investigated, the regular routine work, of which there is plenty to keep the force employed, must be more or less neglected. With the ap- - poiniment of a chief detective thoroughly versed in criminal work, any important matters requiring close attention will be attended to by him on the spot. The progress of the case will he under his supervision, subject, of course, to the head office in Vic- j toria. j With the growth of the province. 1 the work of the present inspector.

"Flexibility of expression und pose is the hallmark of youth. "Many women ln their desire for an erect carriage think they have achieved it by hoisting up their shoulders and holding them hoisted with relentless persistence. Why have a stiff dignity of |K>se wben one tun bave a graceful dignity? "To keep your shoulders young try to keep your mind young by not letting lt worry needlessly or think overin- tensely. "Tbe mind affects the shoulders, and they affect the mind, if you cannot stop thinking too seriously or worrying, move your shoulders nnd arms about a bit, let your shoulders fall into place easily, and yon will see tbat at once your mind Is rested. "Dou't worry about yom uonsebold cares while you are attending to tbem, lis most women do, accomplishing thein wltb knit brow and stiff shoulders. Decide whnt you have to do aud tben just do It wltb easy mind and easy pose. "Thus you keep your face from acquiring set expressions tbat soon age It by robbing It of Its life and giving lt a lot of unnecessary wrinkles. You also keep your shoulders from thnt Inelasticity that is a Toe to youthful looks. "Don't when you can go out shopping walk along with your mind stoically or feverishly set upon your errands. Yon can't do this without stiffening your shoulders. "Stiffly held erect shoulders nre bad enough in giving a woman the stamp of age's rigidity, but stiffly held bent shoulders are a crime against health aa well as beauty in cramping tbe lungs. Stooping is a habit that re- quires great wlll power to overcome. There Is a dangerous tendency toward stooping shoulders ln the present vogue for droop of pose brought about by the limp, picturesque clothes that are now tbe fashion, i "Let your shoulders fall into natural easy lines nnd at once your arms thrill with life and do graceful things that enhance your beauty and preserve your I youth. Stiff shoulders stiffen the ', whole figure. Years fall from rigid . shoulders corrected of tbe fault." BOLIVIA'S SACRED LAKE. Over a Billion In Treasure Said to Bs Sunk In Its Muddy Bed. Legend lias it that for more than 500 years the lake of (juativita. at an election of IO.isiO feet In Bollviu. has not only been held sacred to tht gods of the Indian tribes, but Into Its waters the natives, witb solemn ceremony, used to cast their gold und sllvet ornaments, gems und other valuables as an offering to propitiate tbe evil spirits. It bus been estimated that in this manlier treasure to the amount ot Si,.-.'humhushi found Its way to tbe bottom of tbe lake. Many attempts were made to recover the treasure. Tbe first was by the Spaniards 2TjO years ago. They tried ; to drain off the waters of the lake, but their engineering skill was not equal to the task.

TheTaleTk? Wagons Tell My office window faces a street, close to the railway freight sheds. All day long a steady stream of trucks and lorries lumber by ��� loaded with boxes, barrels and bales. One truck I noticed the other afternoon was particularly interesting. No two boxes were the same, and stencilled on the end of each was the name of some well-known product soap, tobacco, so. ks, breakfast food, cocoa, port, tea, chocolates, perfumery and baking powder. Gathered there in prosaic wooden boxes were the results of thousands of hand's labor in all parts of t'.ie world. The cocoa had been grown in Brazil, shipped to Bristol, transhipped to Montreal and finally distributed from Toronto. The tea was gath- ered by swart- skinned natives of the romantic island of Ceylon; from sunny Portugal the luscious, big grapes had been gathered years ago, fermented, bottled and branded with a famous name; from Egypt had come the cotton and from South America the dyes that entered into the product finally stamped with the brand of a well-known hosiery. There behind that obviously prosaic truck-load of freight was the whole romance of modern commerce- the skilled production, the universal demand for food, drink and raiment, and the world-wide distribution of the things we use every day. And then I speculated why we use these things every day, instead of some other things; and that brought me plump back to my own job of advertising. The names of some of the boxes on the lorrie were known everywhere to-day, but had been unknown a few years ago; and I saw then more clearly than ever before that Advertising is really a great channel digger. It is like the Panama Canal. You can sail from Montreal to Vancouver now, around the Horn. You can get there, but it is going to take months. A year or so from now you will sail through the Panama Canal and chop the journey to less than half. A new channel will have been dug. The ereat names in commerce to-day are those of the manufacturers who have let modern advertising steam-shovel a channel across the isthmus of distributing difficulties. The ereat names in the commerce of to-morrow will be those of men who widen and dredge this channel so that the greater traffic may pass smoothly and quickly from the source of production to the homes of the consumer.

SMALL BUNCO MEN BUSY IN MONIREAl One Class Gets Away With Dollar a Throw, While Other Secures Free Lodging. Montreal. March 2.���For some time a man, perhaps one ot a gang, has been working an old scheme on the proitrietors of rooming houses in St. Lawrence boulevard and are said to have met witb considerable success. A number of cases have been reported where the individual posed as an electrician antl was admitted to the house to repair electric bells. His scheme was to take the bell down and then claim that some part was missing, ln order to repair it he asserted that it was necessary to get this part from a hardware store, and that lt would cost a dollar. When liis scheme worked, he secured the money for the supposed missing part, and lift the house to go after it. That was the last the victim saw of the man. Another scheme that has been worked with great success by those who wanted to find a place to sleep baa been reported from various varls ol the city, in this Instance only the better class of rooming houses wire approached. Early in the evening a wi u dressed man would make enquiries about a mom. Usually he would be so particular about the kind of a room that he wanted that all suspicion was allayed. Where ii was possible he would secure a room with u bath and would Inform the landlady that he would have his trunks moved in the following day. If anything was said about payment, the Individual would claim that he would have to cash a cheque In the morning. After spending most of the morning in bod, he would leave the house, If possible getting his breakfast of coffee and rolls before disappearing. His appearance and a glib tongue succeeded in obtaining many a night's lodging for him. art e,r t-..,lii,-l���fr ,-<,t-i>���t*.,i.-y. ������**'��-���� ���....

At :i meeting of the Suininerland fruit growers heid last Kriday. the ac- th if.es of the last season were review by K. Robertson, manager or the Okanagan i'nited Fruit Growers. He quoted figures showing that the average pries obtained for the output "f the valley were, on the whole, satisfactory. Hut it is said to have been made equally clear that, in a great many instances, the grower did in,t receive a fair proportion of the selling price.

The receipts were $8700, as compared with $12,500 for February, 1913. The slackening off in the applications has enabled the staff at the registry 10 reduce the pile of arrears of applications. A toial of 2700 were dealt with during the past. month ns BgalUSt 1880 for the same period in 1918. This leaves a balance of 7600 which liegistrar Owynii expects lo have brought ap to date by June 30. Dominion land office returns showed an improvement. The receipts for the month were $689.20 against $0.80 a year ago. The receipts from mining lands in the railway belt were 1692.20, a substantial increase over the. 1913 ligiires which were $2X",.lo. There were 18 homestead tilings against none last year. Receipts of the timber office were also ahead of last year's. Tlu* re-urns were: February, 1914, 85632.60; February, 1913, $1863.17.

Montreal, March 2.- The Montreal marki t today was a most unsatisfactory affair. Trading was very light with fluctuations narrow. H. and O. was an exception, selling down to 106%. This weakness was due- to the poor statement which came cut on Saturday. There was some liquidation in the Hell Telephone and the stock reacted to 151. C. P. It- was weaker on lower London cableB. Cement at 31 % and Brazil at 88% were both 11 rm. Power and Shawinigan were steady, the former at 228% and the latter at | 140%. The balance of the list was 1 about the sume as the previous close. Iu the unlisied department Tramway 1 was quoted at 41 to 41 Vi- $1000 j Wayagamac bonds sold at 166% and the common stock at 28. FEBRUARY RECORD. Despite the slight reaction toward the close of the month the record of Montreal stock exchange transactions In February shows large preponderance of net gains. Through ihe first three weeks of Ihe month the general movement of prices was upward. The reaction in ihe first part of last week was overcome to some extent in the closing days of the week and the majority of important issues finished very near their best prices. In almost all departments business showed Improvemett over February Of a year ago, an increase of volume of bond transactions following the In- crease reported for January being In conjunction with the upward tend-] ency of prices, a satisfactory feature. | Laurentide and Power w-ere the big j trading stocks of the month and both i showed big gains, Laurentide finish-] ing lhe month 20', points higher 'ban at the end of January and Power 7:'-i points higher. Transactions iu Laurentide totalled more than 21,000 shares and in Power about 19,000. Cains of 1 to 7 points were shown by a large number of issues. The strength of the market lay largely in domestic issues. C. I'. R. and Brazil wom both heavy to weak throughout the month. The former finished with net loss of 5% and the latter with net loss of 3% points. Iron, which was affected by renewed uneasiness as to the dividend outlook: of the company and closed 5'4 points lower on the month, was the one important Issue whose market is made here to show large decline. Bonds and bunk stocks were gem rally on th* upgrade and unlisted securities reflecting the slrength of the larger market showed some good advances. Net profits cf It. and O. in 1913 as announced to the shareholders at the annual meeting Saturday were $955,- 950. Before any allowance for depreciation this represented only 9.55 per cent, on lhe company's capital stock, a disappointing showing in view- of the fact that earnings on the average paid up capital of the previous year were at the rate cf about 13 per cent, and on 1 be outstanding capital at the end of the year at the rate of about 9.7 per cent. Net profits were actually lower than in 1912, the decrease amouiting to $20,562. As to this, howeier, some explanation is made. Mr. Carruthers, president of the company, pointed out that 1912 figures were prepared by the company along lines previously followed, while profits as brought forward in 1913 statement were subject to the examination of Messrs. Marwlck, Mitchell, Peat & Co. The meeting was more or less perfunctory affair, as It. and O. is now part of the Canada Steamship line and earnings will be Included in the 1912 statement of that company.

Tbe little weary (ace and the fretfa) cry of "1 don't know what to do" that to often delay tbe sick child's convaleav cence can easily be avoided by a few ingenious thoughts for his amusement. Very often Teddy bears and slve toys that bave been sent to by sympathetic relatives will lie nan-, lected at tbe foot of tbe bed, and tha* invalid's Interest can be aroused only by some novel form of entertainment tbat bas never amused bim before. Children are never bappler tha* wben cutting up paper. Snip, saiav they go. clipping out shapeless pieces from old magazines nnd making a muse while they waste their time. Ther* are so muny ways iu which paper cutting can train little fingers to be clever und active. For a few cents one of those colored paper -'pantomimes" can be bought whose "cast" and scenery will take some hours to finish neatly. Little girls love to cut out paper dolls and create fashionable wardrobes for tbem. Very often they prefer to draw tbe outlines themselves, and tben they can color tbem witb crayons. Flow- erg, model bouses, brightly bued chains ���all these can be made from paper. Rag Dolls and Bead*. Tbe average child lores to make those rag animals and dolls that are now sold ut every toy shop. The shapes are easily cut, and tben they are stuffed with rags and sewn wn* agsln. This Is another opportunity to humor a child's artistic bent because | tbe animals can really be made from I plain pieces of calico, provided somebody cuts it out in the right shape, and this can be painted by the youngster. Stringing beads is a favorite pastime with the sick child. Kings, bracelets and necklaces can be made for relatives "on order," and there is nothing that children enjoy so much as matins things for grownups. Scrap book making is another task wblcb a child enjoys. Give bim a ; blank book, a pnste pot and a few oh! j Illustrated magazines and be will amuse himself for hours.

March 2.-Lack of patience caused one of the most daring and most carefully planned burglaries attempted in downtown Montreal In years to fall early yesterday morning. | As it was. the burglar, who force d Ihis way into the jewelry store of ; Richard Hemslejr, 259 St. James street was surprised, pulled a revolver i and fired at an inspector of the Do- j minion Gresham Guarantee and Cas-1 ', ualty company, was fired at by a con- '��� i stable of the company in return and 'finally escaped. Although he had heen ! in the building over two hours, it is I estimated, and in the store itself for I fully an hour, not a tray or show case I was disturbed and not an article, so i far as can be ellscovered, is missing. i No trace of him has been obtained. The plan of the burglar was to saw a hole in the floor above the store j and then wltb a fishing rod, which he I carried with him, reach for the valuable articles which cover the. cases I below and the watches which hang in a rack by the repairing department. He found the job a little too difficult, however, and, leaving his lamp, his I saws, and his fishing rod, and one of his "jimmies" beside the unfinished hole, he forced three doors and Start- ! ed for Ihe store itself. The third door was fitted with an alarm which rang in the office cf tbe guarantee company. W. it. Hamilton, manager, Superintendent Doyle, and Constables Pini- ley and Harvey, of the company, at | once rushed across to the building j They went to the rear | the basement and the I found nothing.

This Is ono I of t'.ie rules, and after telephoning the ! owner the managi r went home and Superintendent Doyle went out tp s-jp ' per. Constabli Plraley was left in thp ! vicinity. No effort was made, how- I ever, to find the city constables In the | neighborhood, and warn them to keep an eye open, it is said. An hour after the alarm was first given the. men were let into the place. They advanced through the store, Superintendent Boyle going toward liie rear, while* the others walked over to the switch to turn on the light. Suddenly feom an office at the back of the store came the sound of some one moving. The next moment, the small door was flung open, a revolver blazed in the face of the superintendent and In the dim light a figure could he seen racing for the stairs about fifteen feet away. Superintendent Doyle put up his hand and told the mnn to atop shoot-. Ing. He himself was unarmed. The/ only reply waa another gCiot, fired | over the bannisters. The burglar kept pulling the trigger, but there *.**as the gun to and explored factory, but endent Doyle steps In the sure. nil no report and he broke see what was wrong. Constables Plmley and Harvey had come from the front of the store on the run and the former had just time to fire a shot before the burglar dis* appeared. This morhing the mark of this bullet in the plaster was the only one that could be found. The cartridges in lhe burglar's gun must have been blanks, for behind Doyle fieri' were show cases and other articles which would have been smashed or shown a mark.
