Montreal, Nov, 21.--The strength which has Geveloped in Richelieu and Ontaro securities has been wel comed on the street. These day: even a smail gain i3 regarded as an indication of considerable strength, and it is now no secret that a group of English and Canadian financiers are earnestly striving to round out this long drawn-out merger project. In connection with the informa-}' tion that the Furness interests would likely make an offer to thé holders of Richelieu & Ontario, it can be stated that Sir Travers Dawson, of London, who is now in Montreal, Ie reported to be working on a plan which it is expeeted, will go through, but arrangements in connection with same have not reached a point as yet where it can be said that there is any certainty about it being brouzht to a successful conclusion. in some quarters it has always been felt that the English Interests now had more to secure from the Richelieu & Ontario than any other erowd, and, on this account, they are likely to stay with the deal until they have rounded it out.

Present Season Shows Great In. crease Over 1911. fhe apple crop of the United States is of generous size, showing some in crease over that of 1911, and a sub stantial gain in the conunercial or chard beit, says the American Agricul- turist. in this, its final report, it plac es the yield at 38.300.000 barrels something considerably short of an occasional big year, yet substantially more than the totah@peipded in the 1911 revised figures, tn New York a splendid showing was made, well on to 00.000 barrels of applies, a big increase over last year this gain, by the way, is almost en- tirely limited to the group of western counties, where apple orcharding has been brought down to a positive sei- ence. * in the Hudson valley the crop is really deficient. Michigan comes next in importance, with a gain over last year, iarge quantities of apples already held by speculators pow going rapidly into cold storage for win ter market. Pennsylvania has a smal ler ctop than last year. New England, as a whole, will not difier from that of 1911, Maine failing to realize in its entirety earlier hopes, owing to a somewhat trying season, yet the Pine lree state has a fine showing of splen- did fruit. The central west and the far west, the latter including the Kocky Moun- tains to the Pacilic coast, have a good many more apples than a year ago. 1his is taken as a whole, irres. pective of quality. While the Pacihe porthwest and Calforma have a splen- did lot of apples, this is only partly true of the southwest, In contrast with the partial failure of a year ago, Missouri, Kansas and Arkansas show up with a big total, but much of this is decidedly inferior fruit. Colorado has a magmhcent crop of the fine fruit, but a httle less than expected. American Agriculturist. CARTWRIGHT REMINISCENCES. Just Published, are the Sensation ot the Season. Sir Richard Cartwright's "Remin- iscences," issued on Wednesday by William Briggs, Toronto, will pro- vide the sensation of the season. Not for a long time has there appeared a volume wtih so intimate a person- al note or so remarkably frank in its estimate) of Canadian political leaders who are not beyond the scope of living memory. The late Sir Richard Cartwright was a very me- thodical man, as well as a highly in- teresting figure in contemporary politics. For forty-nine of the sev- enty-seven years of his life--1835- 1912--he sat in parliament. and played a great part in the events of a stirring time. No actor on the political stage knew better the rules of the parliamentary game or sur passed him in the faculty of vigorous and terse yet classic English. His "Reminiscences'" have evident- ly been carefully set down and are cast in the form of a4 sucession of in- terviews with an imaginary reporter. The scene is Sir Richard's library In many respects these reminiscences of leading men and women are the best yet publisfied for the light they throw on the last half century of Canadian history. The preface to the book is written by T. M. @ourtney, at one time deputy minister of finance. " | | Eileen Ivor was polishing the cop- per tea kettle. Her married sister, the minister's wife, had the Irish woman's love of orderliness, but with two babies and the many duties bf a diffificult parish imposed upon her slender strength she had no in- clination for housework. So the baking, marketing, and scrubbing fell upon Eileen. Kileen was so grateful for her home that it never occurred tp her that she learned it in the dearest way. She had hot a cent of her own and America was new to her. She was skilled in nothing save housework. Her uncompiaining, faithful service, her sweet oblitera- tion of sei; "had given her more of the air of a menial than of a member of the family. Her sister's visitors seemed never to be aware of her. Her brother-in-law did not speak to her unless he had to. She was there in the house and she was necessdry. That was about as much as her presence amounted to. She was scouring away as for dear life and trying to lighten her labor by singing her favorite song, "The Shoogy-Shoo," when the front door bell rang. Eileen looked at - her hands and her soiled apron. Her sister always answered the door when at home. "I'll pretend I don't hear it." Rileen said, and went on singing, al- though In a lower key.

' "That's it, of course," Eileen said, leagerly. The postman had brought a letter among the afternoon's offer- ings of pamphlets and circulars, and she had placed it on the ministerfs desk. This must be the letter he meant "My people will be baci soon, 1 think. You might come n and wait." ' It was the uimost 'hospitality she dare offer. She had never heard the name Donovan mentioned in the house, but then she knew next to nothing about her brother-in-law's affairs. She Jed the young man lo the library, bade him make himself comfortable and left him to return to the kettie polishing. But she did not again sing. Her mind was busy, Through her thoughts wave the pleasant remembrance of the un- expected visitor's merry dark eyes and courteous manner. During her sojourn in the minis- ter's household Eileen had seen men come and go constantly without feel jng interest in any of them. She had her own idea of what her lover must be, and she meant to wait until her idea found personification, In the meantime she could not help sighing a littla with longing for a home of her own and somebody to abundantly love her. But for the most part she sang and laughed away her depressions of spirit Now as she labored at the tea ket- she wished that her hands werej and that she had a blue flow. own like that of Miss Kather- ine Cornell, who often called. { The kettle was bright when the family returned. Eileen told them about the strange man who waa wilting in the library and they wen n_ to see him. In a few momenta! Mrs. Ralston came bustling out into the kitchen, where Eileen was pro- paring tea. 'You'll have te put on something extra," she said, "It's Mr. bono van And to think Mae did no: get the letter in time!" This served to impress Eileen with the fact that Mr. Donovan was 2a guest of distincti6i\and her heart sank lower as the gull between them apparently widened. While tea was in progress she wheeled the babies up and down the back walk, that the conversation of the guest and hosts might flow uninterrnpted- ly. Her own supper, for which she had scant appetite, however, and the washing of extra dishes kept her busy until dark By that time call- ers had arrived. The parlor seem- ed to be full from the varied sounds of voites, among which was that of Miss Cornell, who was evidently making herself very agreeable. Mrs. Walston came hurrying ou. bringing with her a strain of mw from the parlor, where Miss Cornell was singing. She ordered iced lemon- ade and wafers for the refreshment of her guests, then vanished, leaving Eil- een to squeeze lemons, crack ice and open boxes of walers, certain that all would béas she would have it. Eileen arranged her ray dasintity She had changed her work dress for a simple, spotjess white one. Her thick, wavy hair crowned her head with glory, but her poor little hands were stained with her afternoon's work. "How can | go in there?" she thought. And her heart failed her for a moment.
