No sooner is one propo- sition, made and rejected than another is advanced, which on the face of it looks very moderate and fair. When analyzed, however, it is generally found that the arrangement proposed is 'one' int which all the benefit will accrue to Uncle Sam.

It was that CANADA : & or EE Canadians should seal in May . and June, and leave the United States fis engAugust and September.

The report of the proceedings of the meeting, in an other column, will be satisfactory reatting both to the shareholders and other parties interested, The : history of this corporation, perhaps more than of any other or ganization of a monetary character, shows the great financial progress that Canada has made in the last quarter of a century. Banks, insur ance and loan companies we have had with us for a century, but this, the pioncer company of its kind in Canada, was only founded in 1882, and its progress is shown in the re marks of Mr. Langmuir, the man aging directs that : "During the past year alone 213 executorships, ad- ministrations, trusteeships amd es. tates of various kinds, having an inventoried value aggregating close upon $8,000,000, "were placed in its charge, and since the éstablishment of the corporation in 1882 over $50,000, 000 of estates, trust and investment business has heen 'committed to the care of the corporation." It would also appear that the cor "poration, in addition to the perform ance of its duties, as executor and trustee, is the second largest mort gage, debentute and investment com pany in Canada. It is quite evident, therefore, that the business of a cor- porate executor' and trustee is now pretty firmly established in the esti mation of the public. ie pba An expert optician examines Your eves, and guarantees a perfect fit, when yon get your glasses at Dr. Chown's drug store.

Early Ontario Circuit Riders Were Men of Mettle and Faith. Some surprise has been expresesd at the nerve and courage of Rev. Dr. Gar- diner, of Belleville, who, though beyond his fourscore years, recently met a supposed burglar with a pitchfork. This recalls to The Brockville Recorder the strenuousity of the life led by these ministers of early days in Canada They had no newspapers to announce their services, no pipe organ and no church to put it in if they had one; no silver plates for collection, and usually no cash in their pockets. Those of the Methodist church particularly lived on the contributions of thelr congrega- tions, and these did not consist of cash, but provisions of various kinds, with hay and oats for the horse. The moat difficult task they had was to secure sufficient cash to keep them- selves and families clothed, and there was neither purple nor fine linen any- where in the wardrobe, But their piety was of the robust variety. The min- fster, as he rode from post to post on horseback was supposed to be a gen- eral handyman as well as an athlete. When he came across a very smart chap in any of the settlements it was not at all uncommon for the preacher, as he was called, to accede to the re- quest of the boys to "down him," and in most cases the dispenser of the gos- pel was equal to the task. Many & smart Alex. had his shpulders pushed to the ground by these early day min- | Isters. Then, too, he was supposed to be able to swing an axe, and the preacher who could not jump on a log and "butt" at least an ordinary chopper, did not have much show of doing good among the stalwart men. In such a school as this the early ministers were drilled, and they were always ready to forcibly im- | press the claims of the gospel on their hearers if they could hot be reached otherwise. To throw a man out of the preaching place who became obstreper- | ous was nof uncommon, and the unfor- tunate fellow never got any sympathy. It'is not to be wonderdd at that Father Gardiner forgot-about-his-age when he- thought a burglar was about, and met him in the most impressive way. These good old men never knew fear, and no matter how long they are spared. to live, not one of them will ever be found shirking trouble or crawling under the barn. Father Gardiner is a good speci men of aged ministerial manhood, Long may be live! May Bar Jap Oranges. According to The Vancouver Prov- ince, next fall Japanese oranges will be barrel from Canada if they cannot pass inspection as free from pests such as purple or San Jose scale. Thoras Cun- ningham, fruit inspector, so declared in an interview with that paper. "The only reason infected Japanese oranges have Been permitted fo enter the country this year," said Mr. Cun- ningham, "is because they have been paid for. Of course, no distribution of them is allowed til] they have been thoroughly fumigated and the moale parasites destroyed. Merchants here placed letters of credit in Japan on which the Japanese growers drew as soon as the fruit was despatched to this port. Next year, to protect themselves, local importers of Japanese oranges will have to insert s clause in their agreements with the growers that the oranges shall not be pald for till they havo passed inspection. Any scale in- fected oranges found next season will either be shipped back to Japan or de- stroyed "I have issued orders to all inspec- tors in British Columbia to place all citrus fruits on the list of fruits which must undergo inspection. 1 did this because I have found that the lemons and oranges shipped here from Cali- fornia carry scale in some instances, It is the purple scale" The entire consignment of 20,000 Japanese oranges which arrived re- cently by the steamer Tartar from the Orient had to be fumigated. 75 ra ------ Twenty-Six fn a Bed. Mr. Hugh C, Thompson returned on Saturday from a trip in New Ontario, going about fifty miles north of New Liskeard, says The Orillia News-Let- ter. The country seems to be miaing mad, Mr. Thompson thinks, and it is | almost impossible to get accommoda- | tion near Cobalt. In a hotel there he : was one of 26 sleeping in one room. "he beds were put close together, and to get into one's bed it was necessary to climb over the foot of it. Past New Liskeard there is no timber to speak of,. excepting pulpwand, poplar, birch, etc, which grows so close that a rab- bit canifot run through, Mr. Thomp- son was looking for rdllway tie tim- ber, but found it was scarce in that country. ) Rents In a Crowded City. Paris is about the only great city in the world where household rents are as much affected by overcrowding as | in New York. Yet in the French capital 697,708 people hire apartments costing | leds than $97.33 a year: 114,798 pay | less than $194.66 and more than $97.33. | Only 62,426 families live in apartments costing more than $16.22 a month. Only | 17,020 pay over $778.64 a year. That is not very much like New York. Yet Paris was the birthplace of the "flat" idea. The first apartments built in New York upon the now familiar model were called "French flats." ------ Profanity. A correspondent writes to the St | Thomas newspapers complaining of the | usé of profanity on the public streets there. It is used as a matter of course, just "as if it were legitimate lan- guage.", There may be some excuse for letting fall a "cuss" word in the heat of passion, but there is none for those who habitually use profane language in thelr daily conversation. Its use is a sign of vulgarity and ignorance, and the wonder is that decent people tole- rate it. f Indian Population. i The annual report of the Indian De- | that the Indian population of the Dom- inion for 1905 was 107,637, compared with 107,938 for 1904.
