THE "TEN DEMANDMENTS." They Hang In One of the Salmon Canneries In Western Canada. For gross worldly wisdom it would be difficult to surpass the "Ten De- mandments'" hanging in one of the many salmon canneries at Steveston, western Canada: 1 Don't lie. It wastes my time and yours. I am sure to catch you in the end, and that is the wrong end. 2. Watch your work, not the clock. A long day's work makes a long day | short; and a short day's work makes | my face long. 8. Give me more than I expect, and I will give you more than youn expect, I can afford to increase your pay if you increase my profits. 4. You owe so much to yourself you cannot afford to owe anybody else. Keep out of debt, or keep out of my shops, w/ . 5. Dishonesty is never an accident. Good men, like good women, never see temptation when they meet it. 6. Mind your own business, and in time you™! have a business of your own fo mind. 7. Don't do anything here which hurts your self-respect. An employe who is willing to steal for me is willing to steal from me. 8. It is none of my business what you do at night. But if dissipation affects what you do the next day, and you do half as much as I demand, you'll last half as long as you hoped. 9. Don't tell me what I'd like to heat, but what I ought to hear. I don't want a valet to my vanity, but one for my dollars. 10. Don't kick if I kick. If you're worth while correcting you're worth while keeping. I don't waste time cutting specks, out of rotten apples. George Taylor and the Senate. The House of Commons seems strange withous George Taylor, who has stepped aside to give his sent to the new Minister of Finance. "Uncle George" could be counted on always to provide wholesome fun in the chamber. His voice would choke with sobs as he recounted the way in which the country was going to the dogs under the Liberal adminis. tration, and no one enjoyed these exhibitions more than Sir Wilfrid himself. With Dr. Sproule in the Speaker's chair, and George Taylor removed from the scene, the House is deprived of much entertainment. Taylor says he will go to the Benate on the first vacancy. There is no doubt 'he will, for there is no man jn Parlicment or out of it, with the possible exception of Mr. Lancaster, the member for Lincoln, who has done more to peke fun at the doings of that august body. "Uncle George" was positively mirthful over what he termed "thé old women's home." Btill hs is heading that way !--The Mace in Baturday Night. Canada's Gateway. No country in the world has a mose magnificent gateway than Canada. To steam up the ngble Bt. Lawrence, past the Jong, dimefindulations of the Lau- rentides, past the low, far-expanding shores beyond to Mongreal is to re. ceive impressions of natural beauty without a parallel. Surely a people reared under such a high-domed heav. en, amid such rich expanses of cham- paign, should not be mean or petty ia soul.: As the steamer forged her way up the tortuous channel, the passen- gers all crowded to the rail, for the sun was sinking amid clouds of glory over the great wide green eountry, dotted with farms and white-walled villages. How it looked to strangers seeing it for the first time who ean tell; but to Canadians coming home| One plain little woman said, "When I was in England, 1 had to be polite to my cousins and say I liked it, bus all the time I was longing for this." She flung out an arin towards the fun apd her smile made her face real Standard. pt ------ -- ~~ A Queer Reunion. A reunion of four brothers, who had never been together beioré, was the hapny cvéng that was celebrated at the home of Thomas Simpson, 1047 Keele street, Toronto, recently. The brothers range in age from 54 to They are: Charles Simpson, 02, a farmer of Caradoc Tonnehip, near Strathroy; Thomas, 68, West Toronto; George, 56, a farmer living near Bar- rie, and Fred, 54, who has been liv. ing {1 Massachusetts and is going to Los Angeles to make his home. They were all born at the corper of Queen and William streets, To- ronto. .
