The modern John. Bull derives his origin from three main sources. First the Celt; second from the Germans; third, by the Northmen: The speaker described the hotels of England, and said they were among the best in the world. However, John Bull does not put up there. He stays at a private hotel where he can read and meditate. The speaker described in a humorous way how John took his morning bath, how he kept his rosy cheeks and read as a proof a poem written by Kipling, "The Repeal of the Corn iraws." We will find that John Bull's home is built for his convenience, ers take it for granted that he must be looked after, knowing that he bas beavy tasks and great duties to per- | form; very unlike many of our mod- ern Canadian homes, where the main object seems to entertain our friends and give five-o"clock teas.
