AN DOVUE YWhile. Jthe empire Is ready to fall, what dees the red sultan dream about? Is the somewhat melancholy and suggestive title of an interesting article by M. Stephane Lauzanne iu the Matin. What does Abdul Hamid dream j about all day long in his new palac? 1 of -eyferboy** he asks. High i*p there on the drak coast of Asia Minor, in this white castle which the radiant autumn sunshine makes whiter still, Abdul Hamid has been shut up for the past eighteen days, A wall of mustery surrounds the dethroned ruler; but there ls no wall so thick that cannot in one way or i another be pierced by the curiosity j of a whole world. And so, in spit* I of all vigilenco, in sp'.te of guards and > walls, one heirs something from time to time of Abdul Hamid-life. I It is common gossip that whon j steps were take.i for his removal from ��������� Salonica he flatly refused to obey. They shall only tear me away from here by sheer force, he exclaimed. Taken Away by Ruse But time was short and events were pressing, and it would never have done to have exposed the sultan of yesterday to thf> possibility of finding himself captive in a town in the hands of Greeks and Bulgarians. So other steps were taken and German influence was brought to bear. The Oe**Ti,H*1 o*,,"^,':'oVt?v. x.r...rtir.j mr,-.m sent c-'f to Salonica with a mission io persuade Abdul Hamid. On board were two princes of the Imperial Turkish family, _o':h of them socs-in law of Abdul. As soon as the Lorelei reached Salonica they were shown into the ex- suitan's presence and did their best to convince the fallen ruler that he must leave the place at once. But all their persuasion could not Induce the old man to go back upon his resolution not to move. They then thought of _ final argument. The commander of the Lorelei in the gorgeous uniform of the German navy, was ushered into Abdul Ha- mid's presence. This at once changed his tone of defiance. I have every confidence, he said, in the loyalty and friendship of the kaiser. I will under such auspices fol- lowyou all over the world. within an hour Abdul Hamid was on board 'ship. His presence there was almost immediately followed by In Luck The codfish, said the professor. Jays more than a million eggs. It is mighty lucky for the codfish, that she doesn't have to cackle over every egg, said a student who earns from a farm.

The report was issued yesterday and it was as bearish as probably anyone expected lt to he. The report was Issued as usual Just as tho American markets cloacd for tho day, and it gavo tho estimated acreage undor winter whoat ln tho United States for the crop of 191,8 at a2,384,000 acres, and ite estimated condition on Dec. 1st, at 98.2, indicating a possible yield of ..72.000.000 bus. wlitm harvested noxt hummor. Lnat year tho acreage waa estimated at 32,218,000 aoron, the condition on December lBt, 1011 being 8G.C and probable yield 628,000,000 bushels. Thin report of courso was not known until the roarkots hnd closed, and whllo It was expected it would havo a bearish Influence Its effect was partly in sunponno. Rut in the lnttor prtrt of tho market ooflnlon yesterday a much moro bearish foatr uro than the crop report nuido Its appearance In tho U.S. vlslblo supply figures, which showed an inereaso for tho pa������t wook of the vory largo quantity of r.,877,000 bushels. Thin combined with tho oxpoctatlon of tho boarlsh crop report domorall/od the marketu, and bronchi on a dolugo of nolllng orders under which prices do- oil nod lc. to l^c. for tlio day. Today iitit.w li iiiy'uAiu'iiiir, nil iii in ueavy hoar development Liverpool cabl:*H eanu> wuh only 11 hIIkIii doeltno, nnd closing cables showed an * advape.o over lhe enrller reportb. The American market 11 openod with a lot. of noil- such demand. Another bearish ele ment is the nossibility of a continuous good prospect for next year's crop?, followed by abundant ..yields. The present best prospect along this line js the high condition... of the U.S. winter wheat crop, for in Europe the new winter wheat crops are scarcely up to the average for the time of the year, whatever,���������ley may do later on. Owing to the war in~-eastern Europe it is not likely that a full acreage of any of the crops will be* planted over that area. What. a few weeks ago R,-������emed a heayy weight in prospect Is, the Argentine crop, but latterly weather damage by rain and hail in some parts and hot -winds in other parts has been lessening the crop to some extent, and estimates of the probable yield are being reduced, so that to-day the Argentine crop does -not seem nearly so bearish a factor as It did a month a_o. The Australian crop also is understood to he a moderate one, and perhaps this is the cause why exports of old crop from Australia in the last three months have not been over half what they were in same period last year. On the bull side when we turn to the statistical situation we find that-in face of the immense movement of wheat in the last four to five months it does not compare foearisuily with the standing, of visible supplies a year ago. The shipments from exporting countries to importing counr tries from July 1st to date have been 52,000.000 bus. larger than in the same period last year, and yet visible 6tocks are scarcely so large as a year ago. Whether this results from increased consumption of breadstuffs or from purchases which bave%been made by millers and merchants which have gone into the invisible supplies, and are still In existence, we have no means of knowing. We.find, however that the United States visible supply is 61,277,000 bus. against 70,- 388,000.bus. last year. The quantity on ocean passage last week decreased 4,152,000. bus. against a decrease of 1,648.000 bus. last year, and now stands at 34,496,000 bus. against 31,- 462,000 bus. a year ago; that is 3,034.- 000 bus. more this year than last, but only four weeks ago the quantity over last year was 9,208,000 bus. aiid in these,four weeks the world's shipments'have been about 13,000,000 bus. larger than they were in the same four weeks last year; truly the wheat is disappearing somewhere? Last week the European visible supplies decreased 2.684,000 bus. against an increase of 700.000 bus. a year a*?o. and the total now stands at 85,812,000 bus. against 88.300.000 bus. last ye-sr.-The world's visible supply according to Bradstreets Increased last week 2.- 255.000 bus. against an increase of 3,72*7.000 bus. a year ago and now stands at 201,7.05.000 bus. against 202,886,000 bus. last year. For all our big crops and big movement this year therefore risible supplies are less than last year. Our Winnipeg market has been active during the week with good demand for everything at current market prices. Movement from the west tuts fallen off, but the railways have been putting their Btrength on to clean up the Winnipeg yards and side tracks between here nnd Fort William In order to get all cars of grain ln that area down to the lake front before navigation closed. Lake navigation practically closes tonight as no insurance can be got on cargoes that are not cleared by midnight. Shippers havo therefore been very busy In the last few days.

It seems fitting to tura aside for our Christmas lesson to th** prophetic portion assigned as ai optional lesson, that we may know th������ mind of the Lord, for He ���������will do nothing that He has not revealed to His servants, the prophets, and He said Himself, "All things must be fulfiVled which were written in the law o?

Both His first coming in humiliatiott and His second coming ia glory ars so close'.y associated in prophecy that one is apt to confuse them as one event.

Lesson verses 3 to 5 look back- to the deliverance hy Gideon (Judg. vi, 34, R.V., margin) and the Lord wrought a great deliverance and victory. I believe that in Ps? ex. 7, that wonderful kingdom psalm, there is ���������aicTA ^ t.gfoi������njti.a +0. tbe seal of Gideon and his 300. The words in verse 6? "Unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given," are unmistakably plain concerning His birth and manhood, as are the words concerning the placo j'of His birth in MIc. v, 2, and the words of the angel in Luke,it, 10-12, concerning his actual birth. Why are not the rest of the words in lesson verges 6, 7. just, as plain? At'so tho words in MIc. v. 2, "Out off thee shall He come forth unto me that is ?to be ruler ln Israel, whose goings forth, have been from of old,, from the days of eternity." Also the words of Gabriel in Luke i, 32, 33. "The Lord God shall give unto. Him the throne of His father David, and He shall reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of His kingdom there shall be no end." Why are wetitdA that theae wordB must be taken spiritually, that His kingdom Is only ln people's hearts, that Ho is on the throne of David now and that the church Ib Israel? The world of God and the purpose of God will never be understood by those who thus pervert the Scriptures. He did truly and literally appear In ages past to Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, Joshua, Gideon, Man- Oah, Solomon and others. He was truly and 'literally born of a virgin at Bethlehem, rode on an ass' colt into Jerusalem; His hands and. Ills feot were pierced. Ho died, was buriod, rose from the donri, ascended to heaven and iu at the right hand of the Majesty on high. He will just as literally como again to rule over a literal Israel from the throno of David, and Ho wlL be not only King of the Jews, but King of kings nnd Lord of lords, speaking peace to all nations and restoring all things of which the prophets havo -poken (Zoch.

C������ CANYON CITY NOTES Outside of the agricultural lands, those under water, covered with snow, or _ti���������. unexplored, it is estimated that there is in British Columbia an area of .* ������**. vmillSnn am>ao ������oT������nT>.li������ Of THfttMJ-ri fling merchantable, timber. R. E. Benedict, Chief of operation in the Forest Branch, stated recently that the amount of wood annually added to the standing foreBts throngh the natural process of growth, is 100 feet per acre. Hence it wonld appear that 6)������ billion feet of timber is ��������� being added as interest to the wood capital every year. This is an amount considerably greater than that of all lumber cut in the . Dominion in the year 1910. Mr. Benedict places the value of this growth roughly at $100,000,000 per annum, but benefits in excess of this amount will certainly accrae. At the present time, when only one-quarter of the annual growth is being cut, the returns to tha community are over #285- 000,000 a year. The circulation of new wealth io the Province is the f***"tor which is playing a more important part than any other in developing this great Last vv est. Bnt there is one essential. Fire must be kept out of the forests. A dry season and a little carelessness might combine at any time to sweep a great part of the greatest of the Province's resources ont of existence The efforts of ail the fire rangers in the Province would be of no avail if a really large fire got under way. It is by care every day in the year that every . citizen oan help to reduce the fire less. and baild strong the baais of his own prosperity, 1 The Chief Fcrester haa expressed to , The Review, the hope that as many ��������� people as possible will avail themselves , of the facilitieo which the Forest Branch ��������� possesses for collecting Information on forestry questions. Besides a large and ' growing library tho branch haB numerous exports with broad experience in matters of fire protection, forest nursery prtctioe, tree diseases, etc. In addition, thoro arc constantly arriving at tho Branch, accounts of conditions throughout British Columbia, and doubtless the experience of men who know tbe north thoroughly wouid be appreciated by those who live in tho south, and so on. Whether readers of this paper have something to tell or something to ask, their letter* will bo moat gladly received nnd anything that tho Forest branch can do to assist in a thorough understanding of the forestry problem will be enthusiastically undertaken. Sooner or later tho provinoo will como to a man- aflomont of forest areas similar to thoso in Eastern Canada, Runsia, Germany and Sweden, and it is to be hoped that the lesson whioh thetio countries have learnod at tremendous expense will uot bo duplicated In this land. With British Columbia rest * the future of tho timber trado in Canada, and eo tno ex- Unl that she realises her position will am prosperity increase. "W. B.

Neuralgia is not a disease���������it Is only a symptom. It ls the surest sign that your blood Is weak, watery and impure, and that your nerves are literally starving. Bad blood is the one cause^���������good, rich, rod blood Its only cure. There you have the real reason why Dr. Williams' Pink Pll- cure neuralg'a. They are the oni;' medicine that contains in correct proportions, the very elements needed to make new, rich, red blood. Thi.> alone reaches the root ol the trouble, soothes the jangled nerves and drives away the nagging, stabbliig pain, an*l braces up your health in other ways. Mr. M. Brennan, an ex-sergeant of ���������.he 2nd Cheshire Renlmnnt, now a resident of Winnipeg, RCan., sjays: "While serving with mr regiment ln India, on a hill station, I contracted a severe cold which brought, on acute neuralgia, at times lasting for three weekc. I was constantly suffering almost every month in the year for over seven years, tho pain being sometimes bo severe that I wished I was dead. On my return to England 1 seemed to got no hotter, though I Bpent large sums of monoy for modi- cal advlco nnd medicine. Then I onmp to Canada, and about a year ago saw tho advertisement of Dr. Williams'. Pink Plllo ln a Winnipeg paper. Although I had begun to think my complaint was Incurable I told my wlfo that I Intended giving tho Pllla a fair trial. I was suffering from torrlblo palnB whon I begun taking the Pills, but before tho second box was finished tho pain began to disappear, and undor a further ubo of tho Pills lt disappeared entirely, nnd I li-vt.' not hud u Lwlngo of 11 during tho past year.

Thoso Pllla aro sold hy all modlolno dealers or by mall <it CO con to a bo:* The year was the nrst under the general management of Mr. H. V. Meredith and the fact that the profits for i the year were some $242,000 greater than those of the previous year, must bs regarded as not only satisfactory to the shareholders, but as complimentary to the foresight and business sagacity of the General Manager. It' is doubtful if the Bank of Montreal was ever in as good condition to take care of the growing needs of the Dominion than It is at the present time. Its increase ln paid up capital and rest accounts, its gain in deposits, total assets and other matters, makes it peculiarly fitted to take a leading place in the financial and industrial expansion of the country. The addresses of the President and General Manager were both com pre-? hensive reviews pf the financial, commercial and industrial conditions prei vailing throughout the _������ominion. That of the President -which referred to the Dominion as a whole, was masterly summary of the conditions prevailing at*the present time. The address was optimistic in Its tone, Mr.'���������-. Angus declaring that conditions' throughout the Domkiion were unusually sound and that satisfactory progress might be expected as long as present conditions prevailed. Mr.. Angus touched upon the agricultural expansion, th** increase In immigration, the growth of manufacturing, railroad development, the shipping industry and practically speaking every phase of our commercial and industrial expansion. Mr. Meredith in his address, referred more particularly to the growth of the Bank and the banking business. I He touched on the forthcoming revision of the Bank Act, and intimated that there might he a few minor changes, although in the main the present Act was giving satisfactory service. He also dealt in an able and comprehensive way with the increased cost of living and the charge that the Banks throughout the Dominion were not paying sufficient attention (to the farming communities. He denied the charge that the banks encouraged farmers to become depositors, and not borrowers, and stated that ln so far as his bank was concerned many millions were on loan to farmers and small traders. Altogether the addresses of the two heads of the* Bank like the Annual Report Itself, were eminently satisfactory to the shareholders present and should prove equally so to business men throughout tho country' as well.
