The reason for these low prices was not hy any means on aecount of the materials be ing of poor quality, but because the shades or colors were out of style: the materials often being of superior quality. | Now, these bargains could be taken tadvantage of by dyeing the goods, the colors could be changed te the most delicate shades of any of >the fashionable eolors popular at" the time. And remember that it doesn't make the slightest difference whether the goods are wool, cottow, silk or mixed, as there are home dyes now that with the same dye, one can col- or cloth of any kind perfectly. You may possibly have a dress that is hardly worn at all, but is out of fashion as to color and style, Here again, these single home dyes step in to help things out. Rip it up, dye! it a fashionable shade, and with new patterns make it up into a most stylish gown that will be the envy of vour lady friends. White summer dresses can be dyed delicate shades of any color by using these new héme dyes very weak--say about an eighth of a package to about five gallons of water. It is nut alone to "Wearing Appar- «lI that these improved home dyes lead their services.

Northwestern Canada and portions of Alaska still coniain great numbers of la game, Lut in some localities this has al y become very scarce This is almost the last spot in Amer. iea where big game is abundant; there remain only Arctic regions. It is evident, says Forest and Siteam, that in a new country lack- Ing transportation facilities and in. vaded by great numbers of civilized men, who must depend in | mea sure on the .country for subsistence, the larger native fauna will soon dis a r. In this northern region trav. elers, trappers, and prospectors sub- sist argely on the game and fish tha' they take, and + quantities of wild meat are brought intv the settle ments for sale. There has been enormous wasle by the white gam waste the Indians has been less it is only use the Indians are fewer in number. Is some localities the con. tinued and reckless killing of game ior sale in the mining campe has re sulted in the almost complete disap- pearance of such game. nsides this there are not a few people who go into the country in search of fine gam heads and who kill with the us selfish recklessness. They have been known after a day's hunting to leave to spoil on a hillside enough meat to supply a prospector with provisions for a whole winter, The chief game animal in much of that country is the moose, which is so abundant that from a good lookout high up on the mountains moose cen be seen almost any fine day by 'the aid of field glasses. In certain - tions of the country west of the _-- kenzie River caribou are still seen in great herds at the proper season of the year, but these herds appear to be growing constantly smaller, Mountain sheep are yet abundant in many places, and owing to their ha- bits of life are perhaps in less imme- diate danger of extermination than the moose or caribou. It is obvious that as the settlement ot this northern country proceeds the game must disappear. 1% is only by the establishment of ga these regions that it can le preserved, and at the present time the residents of that northern country are interest- ed in the game only so far as it may be turned into money. ---------------------- Canen Tucker an Eloquent Irishman. No bishop of the Anglican Church is more widely known in Canada than Rev. Canon Tucker, who has recently been appointed rector of St. Pauls Cathedral, London, Ont. He shares with Bishop DuMoulin the distinetion of being the "eloquent Irishman" of his own denomination, and is known from the Atlantic to the Pacific on account of his extensive work as gen- eral secretary of the Mission Board. Canon Tucker possesses a marvellous memory for figures, and when he be- gins to deal with finances, popula. tions, square miles and kindred sub- jects in his addresses, he makes the people who are listening simply gasp. He uses no notes, but remembers the most complicated lists with more ease than an ordinary man recalls a name or a doggerel verse. As one man re- marked, after testing his accuracy, "Imagine him on the floor of Parlia- ment. He would turn the debate on the Budget into an avalanche of sta. tistics." ™ Canon Tucker's long experience as a missionary organizer has saturated him with the spirit of that branch of church activity, and his admirers are wondering how he will adapt himsell to the narrower sphere of parish work. A member of the Laymen's Missionary Movement remarked the other day, "I guets that St. Paul's Cathedral will become a sort of travel club. During the winter months Canon Tucker will take them to India, Palestine and far. off China, and when the weather gets hot, they will find themselves visiting the Esquimaux."

These earnings have been increased at such an amazing rate i that for the year ending March Jist 1910, they passed the thousand-mil- lion mark, says Answers in a recent | issue. Of course, this dees not mean that we are all twice as rich as our ancestors were in 1&0. for, in the meantime, the population of the country has neatly doubled; so, In reality, we are very much where we were before. . The jump in the national income from last year to this year is, accord- ling to the "Report of the Commis | sioners of Inland Revenue," no less | than twenty-nine million pounds; but this increase is largely explainable ! by the far more effective methods for | ascertaining' income which have re- | cently been introduced. ; i For instance, in 19039 only four- ! teen individuals fitms paid income-tax cn incomes of £50,000 or over. These figures rose in a twelvemonth to twenty individ- uals, and ninety-nine firm&. The in- crease is too great to be natural, and must ba due to the new forms of in- come-tax inquisition.

The latest statistics {show that the salaries paid to em: loves of companies and firma are ailing. They dropped £6 a head last year. But the numbers of employes, on the other hand, increased enor mousiy--from 513,000 to 385,000. The number of eniployes with sa! aries of £5,000 has recently nearly doubled.
