The of the city community reaches out over the adjoining farm lands which 'go up in oe for three reasons: with the value of town division, and the practical value of good land adjacent to a city for the market and frult garden business. Thus begins a backward movement to the land. Oity dwellers burdened with high rents and crowded quarters begin to uire suburban and even country residences where the time and the money required for transportation do fall a margin below the cost of rent and of other item¥ of living in the y. The thing becomes a mathe. al ia ie whereby a man figs ures an hour each way on § suburban and street railway car as worth so much 8 week or a month to the extra cost of living in the town and allo 80 much for the increase of joing by 1 in the country. One of the results of this backward movement is that the city man with a plot of land near his house learns to go gmdesing. He finds that with an hour a-d no the summer he can tend his garden more or less, do a little casual hiring and produce vege. fruits enough to sup- ply his own tables with perhaps an occasional sale to friends of his in town. The experience of some city men in keeping gardens and raising chickens would be of immense interest to farm. ers who have taken half a lifetime to discover that & real truck garden is absolutely necessary even on a farm; and of even more interest to the townsman who hankers to be delivered from the Sptanhy of monopolistic Frio for vegetables and fruit. And t often ha pens that the townsman who turns himself to the problem of gardening is able to give lessons to the villager or the rural dweller who all his life surronunded by idle or half-idle land has to learn the real man who has been living on the e of a boulevard. 2 yy A Rugby Story, Mr. Maitland McCarthy, ex-M.P., of Calgary, was formerly a great rugby football player. A game was being played some years ago at Kingston between Sree niversity and the Hamilton igers. The spectators kept crowding on the sidelines, and as the game was a hard one, McCarthy, who was the Tiger captain, lost his temper. He singled out a grey-bearded, elderly gentleman, and shouted at him: "Get whiskers; you ought to than crowd on the field Or holds Aa that effect. gentleman proved to be the late Principal Grant, and on the protection of the players sa Mac from batng mobbed by the stu. dents, who had the greatest admira- tion for their president.

Then somebody suggested that they might search America over and find no one so well fitted far this particular task aa Mrs. Hayter Beed. The next thing to be considerdd wns whether a wo- man of her social promifience would accept employment. T uation was put to her diplomatic nd rather adroitly, and to the delight of the ne- gotiator the idea appealed to her and she became an employe of the grest railroad of the north, Mrs. Reed was one of a large family, She has a sister, Grace, who is now Mrs. Gordon, of Seattle, and a sis- ter, Dorothy, who married Edmund Bristol, M.P. for Centre Toronto. An- other sister, Eliza Armour, became Mrs. John Drynan, of Toronto, and besides her brother, Dr. Donald Ar mour, she has another brother, Doug- las Armour, K.C., a barrister in Mont. real, and still another, Eric Armour. She is tall and of handsome appear- ance, with small, well-formed fea- tures. Her manner is usually gracious and winning. Aside from her social prominence aud the unique character of her em- loyment, her case has a wide signi- Re and is of especial interest to girls and women.

Two Trinities. The modest poster exhibited to ad- vertise Mr. Harry Lauder and repre. senting the vaudeville comedian, Sir Walter Scott and Robert Burns, and the three gifts which "Scotland gave to the world" has caused considerable amusement. As one wit remarked: "Burns and Scott were dead lucky to get on the bill free of costs." he incident recalls to mind a little anecdote told about Col. Deni- son. It is a well-known fact that Toronto's lpeal chief magistrate is an admirer of the philosophy of Josh Bil. lings. On one occasion after making a conviction in the police court, he remarked to the lawyer who was ap- pearing on behall of the prisoner: 'These cases always remind me of Josh Billings' remark. He says: 'When a man decides to become a knave, he better examine and see if Jo_laws better fitted to become a ool'." "That was not original with Josh Billings," replied the lawyer ironi- cally, "Solomon said something to the same effect many years ag." "That is just the point," retorted the magistrate, "you see, we agree erfectly, Kinz Solomon, Rpseit and osh Billings." --8aturday Night. Natural Turkish Baths. At the town of Preston, Ontario, about seventy-one miles west of To- ronto, natural Turkish baths are in operation. Near the town is a lake the waters of which are impregnated with sulphur and other chemical roperties, so that the water, besides Foie available for the bath as such, has also medicinal qualities.

Nova Scotia shows a total increase of 2,273 in population, while the popu- lation of the cities and towns of over 4,000 has increased 28,033 in the de- cade, chiefly as the result of the growth of the steel industry of Cape Breton. In British Columbia there has been a total increase of 154,109 during the ten years, and 125209 of this has been in cities and towns of over 4,000. It looks as if British Co. lumbia were going to pattern itself after the Btates of the Australian Commonwealth, where a large propor- tion of the population is located in a few big cities. Of British Colum- bia's population considerably over a third is concentrated in Vancouver, New Westminster, and their suburbs. This is the most undesirable of all the unhealthy conditions disclosed by the census. The bright spots are Baskatchewan and Alberta, where the rural popula- tion has increased at least half a mil- lion during the ten years, and where the movement toward the cities is not yot marked. The figures, taken as a whole, indicate that the man on the farm must get more of the attention of national and provincial legislators than he has had in the past.

"Admiral Schley once tried to have certain reforms instituted in the navy. He found at headquarters a good deal of the optimistic or lazy spirit, however, and so, at a dinner one night, he rebuked a headquarters op- timist with a story. "You remind me, sir," he said, "of old Jimmy Traddles. Jimmy was. a laborer, Noon sounded one day, and and he sat down and fet in his poc- ket for his lunch. But the pocket was empty. "Boys," he said, lunch." "Then he gave a merry laugh. "N's a darn good thing lost it; too," he said. " 'Why 50, mate?" a man asked. " 'Because,' said old Jimmy, left my teeth at home.'"
