The question is pertinent be- cause the outside papers are at a loss to account for the conditions of the local bye-clection. The Toronto News has its own con- clusions, and they are these : "It may be said that this halcyon calm de: tracts from the value of the ex- periment that is being made in the agreement to discourage corruption. No doubt it would be unwise to be lulled into false security if an election held under such favorable cireum- stances should be compatatively free from wrong doing," The Hamilton Spectator is shocked, s it has a good reason to be, with this r ing on the part of our To- ronto contemporary.

We think that in the city of Hamilton an election' without the expenditure of money would be a very tame affair under return given for the ten the only money spent at elections. The people of Kingston know which party is making the noise at present, and they can appreciate the reproach that is conveyed in the closing re- marks of the Hamilton Spectator. Late Nir.

The verdict of the people was accepted Whitney government which is now on trial. : The new administration has not had time to do much, but it has begun to make a record, and it can hardly be said to be free of errors and de: fects, These it is not the disposition of alleged orators at the political meet ings to discuss, but the Ross gov- nunciation has ceased.

Munager "Dick" Mills, of Queen's Hockey Club, has completed all ar- rangements for the team going lo Pittsburg should the members so de- sire. That point will be finally set- tled this evening. Jt is proposed to play two games . in the Smoky City oh the evenings of January 26th and 27th, against the Carnegie Institute and the School of Technology sevens. The collegians would leave here on Thursday at noon and return Sunday night. All of the first team would be able to take the trip, éxcept Sutherland, the cover-pgint, and Mills, the goal. These two players find it impossible to get away owing to the time required. It is just pos- sible that the club may cancel the outing, as they do not wish to visit the scenes of former triumphs, and the city where Queen's introduced hockey into the United States, unless their strongest septette can be in- duced to go. Theatre night at Queen's has been called off, as Greet and his company found it impossible to come on the evening of the 26th, as had been ar- ranged. This gives the evening en- tirely to the medical dance which pro- mises to be the social event of the college year. It Oo heen decided on the request of the track club to petition the sen- ate of the university to change the annual' holiday for field events from the first Wednesday in October to the second Wednesday of the same month. The constitution of the Intercolle- giate Amateur Athletic Union was gone oxer pretty thoroughly by the athletic committee and the executive of the different athletic clubs of the university and the draft practically agreed upon by McGill and 'Varsity has been accepted. A meeting will now be called for February 2nd in Toronto for the closing of details and practically the. formation of the union which is expected to do much for intercollegiate sport. At the ini- tial meeting, Prof. Shortt and W. H. Maclnnes will represent Queen's, the former being of the faculty, and the latter of the student hody. It is sug- gested by Queen's that the union get in touch with like organizations in this.and other countries, for the pur- pose of making some kind of recipro city arrangements, but no affiliation will be agreed to that will in any way tie the hands of the new body. The basketball club will visit Morn treal along with the hockey club ant try conclusions against McGill experts in that sport. It has been definitely decided t¢ run an excursion to Toronto on February 2nd, the occasion upon which Queen's hockey club go up tq play against "Varsity in the Queen city. A special will leave here ahead of the interna-, tional limited, on Friday noon, and the tickets will be good returning till Sunday night. The next meeting in the inter- collegiate debating union will be held in Montreal, some time in February, Cross swords. The loeal university will be represented by Messrs. R. Brydon and D. C.

Too often this is never imparted or is withheld until serious hart has result- ed to the growing girl through her ignorance of nature's mysterious and wonderful laws and penalties. Girls' over-sensitiveness and modesty often puzzle their mothers and baffle physicians, as they so often withhold their confidence from their mothers and conceal the symptoms which ought to be told to their physician at this eritical period. When a girl's thoughts become slug- gish, with headache, dizziness or a dis- tion to sleep, pains in back or lower imbs, eyes dim, desire for solitude; when she is a mystery to herself and friends, her mother should come to her aid, and remember that Lydia E.
