If all the trackage over which the Canadian Pacific railway has control --that is, all the leased lines, or lines taken bodily over, or with running rights--be included in a grand total, the company operates to-day 20,000 miles of tracks. This fact alone would tell of the biggness of the corporation corporation which, thirty years ago, issued its first annual statement on a sheet of notepaper. The company owns 100,000 miles of telegraph; 10,000,000 acres of unsold lands, worth $200,- 000,000; and controls shipping to the extent of 400,000 tons. One of the notable features of the great corporation corporation is, that it takes account of so many things, which, at the first blush, might not seem to be related to railway railway transportation. The comfort of the inner man on the trains is, of course, of prime moment; but note how the Canadian Pacific Railway went out of its way to provide dietetic gastronomy. The railway company milks its own cows, and makes its own soap. It bakes its own bread; and it bores a tunnel through the mountains above the clouds. It grows its own potatoes, and its policies are "of world-wide import and significance. Westminster Hotel, Toronto "A Real Hotel Without a Bar 19 Bright and attractive. Fireproof.

The scheme has on the face of it a fair indication indication of success. Of course the promoters had in mind children in towns and cities, but their scheme possesses merit for all places and conditions. conditions. The mode of opération_ in schools is as follows: From eight to twelve of the older pupils, whose standing and deportment warrants such récognition, should be selected by the Principal or by any other means approved by the Principal to constitute the Safety Patrol. If considered considered advisable the Principal may change the membership at any time to give other pupils the valuable experience. experience. In small schools the number number of members may be reduced to four or six if necessary. * * * * ' The Safety Patrol pledge reads: I will work for the Safety of others as I would want them to work for my Safety. I will work for the Public Safety as I would want those appointed appointed to safeguard our city to work for me and my family and friends. I will try to protect myself and those with whom I come in contact from the risk of unnecessary chances. I will do MY PART to help reduce the number of accidents and fires for this year. * * * * During our recent holiday we had opportunity for seeing the need of such action as the Ontario Safety League is taking. The rapid increase increase of automobiles increases the danger to children on city streets. There is something in boy nature that prompts him to defy danger. City boys will not heed an auto horn if placed upon pupils, guardians and prevailing prevailing public, opinion. Surely if the people had demanded fuller instruction instruction in the art of music the subject would have received more attention by the Department and in the High and Normal schools where teachers are trained. ^Altogether too few school teachers can teach more than the rudiments of music but there are available a fair number ' of music teachers who, if they wish to, or are permitted, can give their pupils a broad -and really cultured musical' education, while at the same time producing producing the much desired technical results. * * * * - In' England music receives much greater attention than in Canada. Music teachers' associations are organized organized in the leading towns and cities and even in the country villages musical musical organizations are quite common. Standards for music teaching as well as for general proficiency have been discussed, formulated and adopted by a number of music teachers' associations; associations; complete courses of music study, including detailed tests and examinations examinations based upon authentic sources of information, are now available available in published form. This then, and the fact that there are sufficient teachers qualified for the work in some centres make practical what is already desirable, namely, that serious serious music study be included in the school curriculum, with rating and credits according to work and achievement. achievement.

The teachings of science regarding effects of alcohol on the human system have been explicit and emphatic, but lovers of spirituous liquors disregard very often the admonitions of the scientists. One of the late scientific discoveries is that the normal reaction of cold-- increased production of heat and constriction constriction of the blood vessels of the skin--is partly paralyzed by large doses of alcohol. Even a small quantity quantity of alcohol will sometimes cause a fall of five or six or even ten degrees in a man's internal temperature. As everyone knows, people who are addicted to the use of alcohol, drink in the summer to keep them cool, and in the winter to keep them warm. Alcohol Alcohol really causes a fall in the body's temperature and does not, as is popularly popularly supposed, increase the body's heat. It is true that after taking a drink or two there is usually a feeling feeling of increased warmth, but this is "I would rather stand at the foot of my class than cheat at my' lessons," we overheard a girl remark during our recent trip. That is a safe and honorable stand to take. "Honesty saw j is the best policy," says a bystander, fire j "but it makes a man poor sometimes." "7 X.- True, but if need be I prefer poverty to deception and wrong-doing. The joy, peace,, comfort of mind and real happiness that comes from rightdoing rightdoing and honesty makes the effort worth while, if it be an effort to do the right thing at all times and under all circumstances. The Christian Herald Herald in discussing a great moral issue recently, said editorially that there is a wide difference between the quality quality of uprightness and that of down- .rightness, though both may be illustrated illustrated in the character of the same person. This is true, for human.jia- ture is often s.egn in most peculiar phases. " : * * *, * It is, we believe, often very easy for a man to deceive himself. It is said that to err is human, to forgive divine. Temptations are so many and attack us in such a variety of forms that to adhere, to a strictly honorable course of action and do right under all conditions is -heroic. Such a man is a true type of Christian. An upright upright man, who fears God and tries to live a blameless and useful life, j may be a very worthy and estimable Christian citizen, just and scrupulously scrupulously honest in all his dealings, yet with only, a delusion, due to the greater little force of character, lacking in- ReentifoUr colored sectional possle chart, showing both exterior and interior of The Great Ship "SEEANDBEE" sect oo receipt of nvc cents to cover postage and mailing.

Send, your soldier a package of It is true, that in some schools the scholars axe taught'to sing in a way a number of school songs, but in the schools we have known in Canada vascularity of the skin and the activity activity of the sweat glands. Alcohol appears to act in two ways on the body's temperature. In ordinary ordinary doses it has little or no effect upon the production of heat in the tissues, but increases the loss of heat by sweat glands and quickening the circulation. And, as has already been stated, in large doses it paralyzes the normal reaction to cold. It is plain that alcohol is of no real service to man in withstanding either high or low temperature. * * * * , While in New York recently we visited one of the large grammar itiative, and unequal to a great emer- genqy. A downright Christian we should regard as .one who is positive in his beliefs, unshakable in his convictions, convictions, a man who goes straight to the point where others would hesitate, one who is fearless and will not halt at doing what he regards as his duty, the man for an emergency, and with the stuff in him that goes to make leaders. The churches need more men who combine both characteristics. They need the kind of man who, gives strength and encouragement to others ; who will not be satisfied with merely leading a quiet, model life during during the week, and appearing regular- ORIGIN OF WHITE BREAD. First Used by London Citizen for Sake of Harmony. Referring to my recent mention of bread and bread making, I have come across some particulars about the white bread most of us eat at this period, says "Diogenes" in the Vancouver Vancouver Province. White flour did not come into existence till about a century century ago, when a London citizen named Hugh Paddington decided to do something unusual at a dinner. As white was fashionable at that particular particular period, Paddington determined to have all the food at the feast of a color quite different from their natural natural hue, with a leaning toward white. To match the tablecloth he wouldX have the bread white. He called a Hungarian miller into conference, conference, and ordered flour ground especially for the occasion. Such a thing never had been heard of before : --a perfectly white flour. Produced from the ground grain of the wheat, flour naturally took on the commingled commingled colors of the grain, and therefore was dark. But Paddington wanted it whiter--snow white. It was a hard task for the miller, but after many efforts he succeeded in producing producing the desired results by selecting only the white, lifeless, starchy portions portions of the grain and discarding all others. This being accomplished, the epicure was delighted. The rest of the color scheme was easy. As he c had expected, his dinner proved the novelty of the day, and the bread was a tremendous hit.
