One of the greatest things that France had to look back upon was the part that her sons had played in: the history ofiCanada;, from; 1534 to 1760. a period of 226 yea During that time Frange tried to form a commane wealth similar tosher, own, 8nd. that she failed was/mno discreditito her sons.

Provi- dence had decreed otherwise than that they should succeed in what they had fought and died for, but Providence often decreed things which for the Loyal to the Crown. a poem, "Tecumseh," and two novels, "Wacousta" and "The Canadian Brothers" dealing with the days of Pontiac. "Wacousta" was fully the equal of Fennimore Cooper's books, stronger if anything, and worth re- publishing, 1%e second period, from 1850-1880, was that of political union between Up~ per 'and Lower Canada. Dr. Dewart's anthology was a good guide for the poetity of the time. The Literary Gar- land, 11838-18571, was worthy of note in this -<connection. Among the prose writers were Mrs. Moodle, Mrs. Ross, ' Mrs. Sadlier'and May Agnes Fleming; William Kirby, with "Le Chien D'Or"; John Lesperance, with his story of the Boston' Invasion, and James De Mill, who had been copied by Gen. Lew Wal- lage, wiere notable. In poetry Charles Sangstdr, Charles Heavysege, Mac- Lavhlat and Mair were the chief. Sangstel's poem, "The Rapid,* was one of the best nature poems in Can- | adian literature, The third was the Dominion period. Lighthall's ' anthology and . Rand's "Treasury Of Canadian Verse" were commended for study. In the 120 sing- ers of the latter volume five were pars- ticularly striking--William W. Camp- bell, Bliss Carman, C. G. D. Roberts, Archibald Lampman and Dr. Drum- mond. Carman was so melodious, so cloyingly sweet, the lecturer placed him near Swinburne, but he had re- France's offspring in this country had been largely instrumental in keeping this country for England at the time when it was threatened by the people to the south. For 20 years after that time the country had been a howling wilderness, but in that day the people of Canada, French and English, found that they could agree and they work- ed together to make the country pros- perous for their mutual benefit, When the English colonies had risen in revo- lution against the Crown they had tried to enlist the support of the French- Canadians, but the latter had seen no reason to break away from their alleg- tance, and they become more and more attached to British institutions. The French Revolution, with all its horrors, had been so antipathetic to them that they had separated all their ties with the Old World and simply styled them- sélves thenceforth Canadians, Nation- al feuds had broken out later when the Constitution had been placed in the hands of men who were out of sym- pathy with the people, but when the new Constitution was given the people of Lower Canada had united with the people of Upper Canada in a friendly | manner to bring about the best results ! from the British Constitution Work of the Priests. Mr. Marcil then spoke at some fength in support of tHe Chuich in Quebec, When France had abandoned Canada all the eivil officials had re- turned to the Old World, and the priests alone remained faithful to the people, They induced them to bow to the decree of Providence, and to be- come good British subjects. They had stood by England In the days of the American Revolution, and had per suaded the people to do the same. In 1837, When the French-Canadians had been driven to desperation by the Family Compact, they had taken up arms, not against England, but against her representatives, and the clergy had been most active in advis- ing Constitutional methods, The im- pression that the Catholle Church had been a bane to Quebec was wrong. It had helped in the spiritual and moral upbuilding of the people. It had been an idle dream that the French-Canadians would some day be submerged by the English race. The crisis had now been passed, and though Canadians, speaking the ¥rench language, might never hope to be in the majority, it was certain that the French language would always be the language of a | large number of Canadians. This was has his permanent | po misfortune, as most of them also and it was a sign that a man knew twice as much when he spoke two languages. | tities occupy the seats of the mighty, | The French-Canadlans had. no other There was no Old Not one French- { Canadian in a thousand had ever been to France.

The lighthouse on the False Duck Island, near Kingston, recently destroy- ed by fire, was the oldest lighthouse in the country. On March 27, 1828 when Sir John Colborne was Governor of Upper Canada, the Legislature of the province passed- an act granting £10,000 for erecting "a goed and suffi- cient lighthouse" for the safety and convenience of navigation op Lake Ontario. an. to New ork at a rate per ton nearly half that. charged for earvying the same. goods to.

Canads was awakened to the state of affairs by the preaching of some travelers-and sent in the Northwest Mounted Police to civilize the country and keep order. This N. W. M. P. was only fully or- ganized In 1874, though it was still some time before the nefarious trading of the whiskey pedlar was put down, There are some interesting old build- | ings still extant that were half fort half trading post, rejoicing in such | names as "Stand off on Belly River," "Kipp," "Whoop Up and Slide Out" names that often spring from some stirring occurring in eld Indian days. Forts were necessary, because Indians loaded with whiskey are like dynamite, no one knows in which direction they will go off when loaded. The Blood Indians, a branch of the Blackfeet, or- iginally a Minnesota tribe, inhabit the most southerly reservation in Alberta, | while the Peigans, another branch of | the Blackfoot family, have thelr guar- ters just to the west of Macleod. For some time after the advent of the "plice," and after the greater part of the fur-bearing animals had disap- peared, the Blood Indians lived mostly upon the rations supplied by the Gov- | ernment; and so well was this Govern- ment work done that our Indians have been by degrees coming--through thelr confidence in the white man--to a fair state of civilization. Some of us knew the Blood Indians pretty 'well 20 years ago, and then it may be said that just a few made attempts at farming, though mostly with roots, such at po- tatoes or turnips. By degrees they have progressed, and whereas they were--in old days--more likely to break up for kindling wood the wagons or implements furnished by Government, to-day they recognize their utility. Thé Blood Indian of to- day is the hay maker of southern Al- Berta. The Blood Indians havé a fine reservation, on which the white man's cattle are not allowed unless he pays toll, so the hay grows and prospers sand is a neat source of revenue to these Indians, who take large contracts for supplying hay to livery stables and ranches, usually filling the contracts in short order. In their operations they use the most modern machinery. Horses they have galore; also wagons they have acquired and fixed up with the regulation basket hay rack of the West, so. bullt because it oily takes one man to load or unload it, and load- ing hay in this breezy country ls eas- fer with sides which stop the hay from constantly blowing off. The hay is run into town, weighed By the Indian agent and the buyer, and as soon as the contract is filled each Indian receives his pay of $4.10 per tan. The Indians camp in their own tepees a little way out of Card- ston, Alberta, for their reservation line just skirts the town, and cutting their hay they raked it with horse-rakes and filled the town barns in a few days, One minor chief, named Wolf Child, is familiarly called Turnips by the white folks because when we first ar- rived in the country and had no gar- dens he used to bring roots, mostly tur- nips, to barter for other delicacies such as tea and sugar. From being the man that brought the turnips he acquired the name of Turnips for short, which name has clung to him amongst the white fry ever since. A picture of Wolf Child (alias Turnips) and his wife and child show them in full Indian regalia, The feather bonnet was acquired by bagging two Gros Ventres Indians that eame over the line from Montana in 1887. These Gros Ventres, called by the Blood Assinak or Cut-throats, made & | raid on the horses of the Bloods and got away with quite a bunch, but the Bloods were quick, and following up their horses they brought the Gros Ventres, to bay and fighting a battle near the line, six of the latter were kill~ ed, two of the scalps being claimed by our friend Turnips--who is a good shot ~--he"also annexing the fine clothes and bonnet of one of the Gros .Ventres which he wore when his pleture was taken. The Blood horses were recover- ed and their herds augmented with some of the horses belonging to the Gros Ventres. So it was a case of the biter hit. 4 A gaod deal of this progress is due to good teaching by the agents and farming instructors, and not a little to the teaching of priests or clergymen, who vary of course in ability, but who have earned a national reputation. During the early part of the rebellion of 1885 the Bloods and Blackfeet were restless, itching to be at war with somebody and they would dearly have liked to have taken a fall out of some- one, but quite a little fatherly influence was brought to bear upon them and had a great deal to do with keeping them on our side. : heights, surface and volume, and the relation of the stars to one another Not to know what was necessary to mankind in general, and what was truth, he added, was disgraceful to, everyone. Burton of the Anatomy paid glorious tribute to.mathematical studies. Sterne recognized the "thorny and bewildered track," with its bewitching and phan- tom knowledge. Swift, in Gulliver's Travels, created Laputa as a satire on Newton, whose support. at the Mint of Wood's Halfpence begot the Draper's Letters. At the Laputa banquet they had equilateral triangles of mutton, rhomboids of beef and cycloids of pud- ding, while the bread was cut into cones, cylinders, and parallelograms. A mathematician remarked that as these were chiefly plane figure, he would take the cones and cylinders of bread and leave Swift the others, which, of course, had no solid dimen- sions. It was notable that Swift as- gerted, "In a mere rankling statement," as Prof. DeLury put it, the existence of the two satellites of Mars discover- ed two hundred years later by Bond of Cambuidge. Rousseau's most interesting allusion was his idea that in their relation to ladies wise men were asymptotes, a term applied to lines which constantly approach each other, but never meet. Thomas Hardy uses the same figure in detail. \ Voltaire, Shelley and Wordsworth were quoted, the latter, in The Prelude, seizing the point that mathematical work was essentially the creation of the mind. Carlyle describes cant as double distilled lving, the second power of a lie, and thera is much play of mathematical fancy under his words. Emerson has subtle references, and Macauley "lacked words to express his abomination of the science." Dante was the last author quoted. His bold and untrammelled employment of direct mathematical figures was the work of one who knew the problems of mathematical scholarship. . Illustra- tions were given from. Cantos xiil., xvii, and xxxviii. of the Paradiso. e---------- Trying to Pluck a Brand. A Toronto business man was sitting in his office with the door open an inch or two when a messenger boy with a 'letter in his hand pushed the door open and asked him where he could find the person to whom it was addressed, says the Toronto Star. "Second door to the right" said the business man, and then as the boy de- parted he called him back. "Come over by the desk," he said, to the surprised boy, "I want to say something to you confidentially. It you want to be a success in life--it you want to be a great man some day and a credit to your family, always remember to leave other people's doors the way you find them. If you find my door clgsed you can wisely assume that I want it so; if you find it open, leave it open; if you find it open two inches, don't leave it wide open and compel me to get up and fix it aftem you." Strange as it may seem the boy got red in the face and began to stammer an apology. "That's all right," said the business man. "I wouldn't have bothered say- ing this to you only you look like a kind of boy that has pretty much gone out of fashion. I've given you a point- er that may make your fortune, for if you can remember this piece of ad- vice and act on it, there is no telling where and when your good sense will attract somebody's attention and win you a start in life. Trpt along and think it over." .. The boy, with a bashful smile, thank- ed him, and in going out carefully left the door open about two inches. Will he remember the advice, and if he does, will it, make his fortune? Story of a Pair of Trousers. *There is a story told of an absent- minded university professor in Toronto | whose wife finds it necessary to look after his wardrobe. On one occasion it fs sald, he did an unprecedented thing. He bought himself a pair of ! trousers, put them on one morning, and hastened away to deliver an early lec- ture at Varsity. On entering his room fater his wife was startled to see his favorite trousers lying carelessly where {| they had evidently been thrown the night before. With terrible forebod- ings, she ransacked the apartments, Al his trousers were there--every pair. : She hurried to the telephone, called up Varsity, and got the janitor.
