But 91 we have an exception:> in the case of the cele- ýrated Souvenir Kitchen Range. Laurier and Tupper, Hardy an~d Whitney, are of one mind on this subject. "And nowMHardy, Tupper, and Laurier too. Use the Souvenir Range for political stew; All gases escape through its fine aeration, And good wholesonae f ood now blesses the nation." The strong point of the Souvenir stove is its aerated oven, wbich mnakes cooking a success under any circumstances; and the good nature of the politician-as well as the cook-is soon restored wlien a Souvenir stove is installed in the A neat Booket entitled " Kitdhen Wisdom,"1 with illustrations by J.

This new hospital will lie a great convenience te residents requlring treatment in the West End.t It is a question whether Canadians are as loyal te Canadian publications ast they should be. We fear they are not. Just now we have in mind the Canad- ian Magazine, the superior of which1 froin a literary and historical stand- point does not exist. Mr. John A. Cooper is the editor and a very clever corps of writers compose the editorial staff . This splendidly conducted xnonthly is thoroughly Canadian.
