The speaker at the Canadian Club of Toronto on a recent afternoon was Hon. | W. J. Hanna, the Provincial Secretary, who talked entertainingly and instruc- tively upon the question of the care of of asystem which, while continuing the efficiency of the present method to- wards the afflicted themselves, will not be 4d diféct incentive to the shirking of obvigus duties on the part of the in- | dividual and the local community. His utterances were listened to with deep interest, the impression prevailing that they were in a sense semi-official. There are, he said, in the institutiens for the Insane In Ontario, 6,000 people, who are maintained at an annual cost of quite $1,000,000 if anything at ali i$ allowed for capital accotint, eta. Fol the maintenance of but 1,200 of these 6F about 20 per cent, {s anything loon- | tributed by patients themselves, or by those morally or legally responsible fos, thelr care and comfort, and for the year ending 30th Septe r last the amount so contributed ®is less than $115,000, the highest point yet reached. Much of this was contributed by th working class, who are as a clkha the 'least disposed to avold payment. means that 88 per cent. of the cost of maintenance Is defrayed by the pro- vince. He acknowledged the duty of the Government to take care of {fils class of citizens, but on far higher | grounds of a measure of bu practical Christianity Hé unhesitatingly advocated the most efficient system, re- | gardless of expense. The central plan | of caring for the insane adopted by the | Government is superior to the localized one at many points, but it destzoyed case which is the distinctive feature of local interést and control. The super- fority of the localized system consists in the fact that the municipal officers = Have personal knowledge of every cdse and of tle ability of the relatives to | pay and whether they should be made to pay. In this respect the Ontario sys! tem fs deplorably defective. Mr. Han: na drew attention to the Increase im the numbér of insane from one in each 1,168 '6f population in 1871 to one in each 340 in 1905, while in Quebec thers is only one in each 459, in New Bru wick one in 460, and in Nova Beotfa one in 860. The question was, "Is Gi ernment ald to-day given in sdéh & way as to kill individual effort, and cam it be given in such a way as to stimu- late it?"

Lady Jape Grey was tbe most learn- ed child of which history has any rec- ord. Before she was nine years old she wrote a beautiful hand and was able to play on many different instru- ments. She could speak several lan- guages, both ancient and modern, bes | sides being well grounded in philoso hy. When other children were play- ing she would amuse herself by read- ng writings of the philosopher Plato in the original Greek, Perhaps it was be- canse she had led a very lonely life when she was a child, as her mother and father were often away at court, feaying her to the care of her govern- ess and her schoolmasters at the gloomy family place called Bradgate. The big sguare house was built on the edge of a great forest surrounded by acres of uninhabited land. There were | very few books and not any newspa- | pers at the castle, and Lady Jane Grey bad po playmates, as her governess would not allow her to play with the servants' children, .and there were nm. others suitable for her companions Within miles. | [ 1 The Origin of Windfall. The origin of the expression *"'wind- fall," which is used when one Wishes to refer to a streak of good luck, dates back to the time of William the Cor- queror. At that time it was a criminal offense to cut timber in the British for- ests without royal consent. All thot could be gathered for fuel or other purposes was such limbs as the wind should happen to break and cast to the ground. On this account the peasants hailed a great windstorm as a blesi™ ing, because it was apt to east enough of "windfalls" for winter firewoorl. From thia old time forestry custom comes the modern application of the expression. At one time it was decreed that enly such Imbs and whole trees as ghould fall during the three summer months could be used as (irewood, but the unjustness of the act was so plain- ly apparent that no attempt was ever made to enforce It. Muzsled Women of Muscat. ¥ Women of the better class in Musent all wear muzzles, which barely ailow them to open the mouth or see with the éye or sneeze. If there happens to be a Cleopatra in Muscat she will nev- er fascinate any Antony by the beauty of her well shaped nose, for it is kept in a specially made, ugly case, in which it is impossible to tell its shape. But with all its faults this is a far better gystem than that of eutting off the nose, as men in the Kangra district in India are wont to do when any of their spouses have proved too fascinating.- Ventriloquism In the Bible. Ventriloquism, which Is described as "speaking from the belly," has its first historic mention, as far as we are aware, in Isaiah xxix, 4, "And thou shalt be brought down and shall speak out of the ground, and thy speech shall be low out of the dust, and thy voice shall that ¥ bs Resourceful. !
