A Missouri pa;Hr tells of a man who was cured of a case of rheumatism of sixteen yvars standias by beir.:; thrown from a horse. The p'aystelaL wh" signed the death cvrtihcate pro nouuced the cure permanent. The recent lession of Congress may be rememberel in history as the '"I'itoh Congress." The catioiiai system of ir rigation which Coutrress autiiorized will be a network of ditches, and the canal across the isthmus wiT certainly be fuee:ious!y described as "the great flitch" between the two "bis ponds." No place is exempt from the adver tising sign nuisance, it would seem. He Las invaded the cemeteries in some towns and tacked his d:snrur:n siti.s on the trees there. Why dn't adver tisers sti:ik to the newspapers, where they get some returns for their money and avoid distsuring the landscape and violating the propne:.es, as in tnis case. A visitor from -S -otiand to the Toron to conference said a great many people In his country regarded Canada as "the Icing on the American p'.um-case." Less poetic than the cuaracter'zatioc. "Our Lady of Sorrows." the description of the I-ominion yet appeals to the imag ination of the epicure. The visitor added the sirciiicant remark that he believed Cacad.ans themselves had a treat share of the cake. One of the most sensible moves in connection with the army is the pro posed change in uniforms. Kahkl has been found by British experience in South Afr.ca to be too light, so the proposition is to dress our soldiers in a working garb of olive-drab that is hard to distinguish at a distance from their environment of trees, haze and earth. The change proposed is practical and businesslike, but. aiasl what becomes of "the boys in blue?" The art of retracting without taking anything back if the bull may be al lowed seems to be understood in Japan- A young orator at a political meet ing called a public official a thief, a policeman on duty gravely rose and ad dressed a remark in a low tone to the speaker, who thereupon said: "The chief of police requeaw me to retract the word which I have just spoken, al though the word of a sage should never re-enter, let us make a concession: let ns take back the word and keep the Idea." Great applause and cries of "Bravo" greeted the orator's escape from his d4Iemm W'omen of the present generation have not lost all the characteristics of their grandmothers.

Such :n j volitions suould le hailed with greater j joy by the unswerving friends of peace than by the enthusiastic exponents of war.

The whole situation is summed up in the phrase, "one ia afraid and the other daresn't." It is only when provocation comes from wvak and ha'.f-civllized people that martial ardor is encouraged to the fighting point by responsible state men. Undoubtedly another cause of re strain: among civilized communities is a growing aversion for war. bu: the Inventors have had their influence.

A.URCHY MIST BE STAMPED OUT. Br Hon. J. It. Bromwell, 1. C. The doctrine of anarchy is like a foul plague which, bem; bred in un -iean and impure surround ings, is liable to spread and em urace the gviod and pure as well as the fciiby aud unciean. Born in countries which give to their people few or no political or so cial rights, a revolt against unlimited ty ranny on the part of rulers, it does not discriminate between such g -Ternmeuts . and those in which the people themselves I make and execute their iaws and enjoy ! the fullest measure of liberty. Its aim is not to correct the evils of government, bu: to destroy ail govern i men:. It would not only reform anuses. but would do away with the virtues and i benehts of all good government and so I ciety. It would bring social chaos upon ! the worid and would reduce human so , ciety to a condition where mere brute ' force would reign triumphant. , No country in the wond is more seri- ; onsiv inlerestei1 in Thi snbieor from nop I own. for no country has more to lose and j none has less occasion for social upheaval I than ours. "Thus far anarchy has ob- j tamed but little foothold here out witu f the almost unlimited lice e to speak and 1 n-inr whie'n -u ht t.mi. .t...!.... ... l,eve is the constitutional right of everr .... ...... i ... :.
