The experience which last year was very intecesting. showed that the basis of year's statistics the Hunter rates were excessive, but it does not follow that there should be any' change in rates, any lowering of them; so far as the government goes, than it follows there should be a change in the dard rates of Fraternal of rates y was secured It on One these stan any insurance company mortality falls below the estimated mortality.

"THE TOWN WATCHMAN: by i Wages in Great Britain, Montreal Gazette Statistics were presented in the Brit ish House of Commoni to show that sixty-five per cent. of the adult work. ers in Great Britain receive less than $5.50 a week. The average rate thus {stated is probably reduced by the low wages of agricultural laborers, whose {pay in money in some places is as {little as eighteen shillings a week. The situation moocounts for the large in- lerense in the number receiving poor law relief whenever there is' a trade { depression. It also shows why the old 'age pension system had so many {friends in a country where individual sm is strong. Also it creates respect ior the pe , who, on such small in- comes, have the self-denial that en ables them to save money to take them to other lands where their work is better paid and helps the country they choose as well as themselves.
