Child philosophy is sometimes very | persuasive, A child asks questions | that an adult sometimes 'cannot an- { swer. The cartoon in the Whig sup- | plement of this date is quite pointed, | and it illustrates the foolishness of | out-of-town trading. The mother | of one little girl finds in the city an | article of wearing apparel that looks | well and fits well and appears to be | comfortable. The mother of anoth- | er little girl sees something adver- tised by the departmental store and | sends for it. It is cheap--and it | does not fit. It certainly does not look or feel well. The dialogue be- tween the little folks is quite illumi- | hating.. It carries with it a great and convincing lesson. The things | one reads about and sees pictures, in the fashion books or the papers are | not the things he gets upon mail or ders. Why not let the home mer- | chant do the selling? He has usu- | ally what one wanf or he will get it, and the buyer and the seller enter ito trade relations 6f the most har \ monious character. "And a little child shall lead them." It is.a his- | torical saying, and it finds an almost daily exemplification in the domestic life of the city. A DISSOLUTION AT HAND. The Toronto World editorially dis- { tusses the Kingston power situation | and pursues a line of thought which would lead one to infer that Sir Adam Beck has exhausted his own energies and the energies of the Hy- dro-Electric Commission in trying to serve the people of Eastern Ontario. The World has not given all the Tacts. It is hardly to be expected that it would. This is a local issue, and it is wore or less complicated: Qur. contemporary confuses the larg- er question of supplying Kingston 'with Hydro power, with the question of rates. Kingston's Commission, on the earnings of last year, realized that it could give a promise or reduced rates. It hesitated as to the manner in which the cut should be made. The Hydro-Electric Commission had been invited by the Council to advise the local Commission on the Camp- bell proposition and undertook to counsel! the Commission upon its general policy. . » § _ The rates current in the west are bised on Hydro contracts. and for Hydro power which bas become so cheap that extra charges are not of much consequence.

The answer is the criticism of the press. The Ottawa Citizen, Conser vative, and the Hamilton Spectator, Conservative, attack the work of the Shells Committee. They allege that | some of the charges for machining shells were unduly high; that the | price was not unreasonably challeng- | ed in some cases; that one Hamilton firnf, acting independently, had vol | unteered to do the work at cost; and that in spite of all this a certain fa- vored Company, of large capital and influence, had insisted upon and se- | cured a contract at the old rate. The articles of the Citizen and Spectator in other columns will repay perusal The Toronto Star charges that the contracts were confined far as as { possible to the politicians. and that] | "the business was treated as party | patronage from first to last." i It is not surprising, in view of all this, that the report comes from Ot-| | tawa, that the Premier has takena part in the discussion and dered an independent audit of the The Toronto three of the men who sat at the Board to deal with shell making are themselves promin- having shell contracts."

They had their pails nearly full and had just sat down to eat their lunch when they heard a most awful yelling and when they looked to see what it was they saw four sneaking forms glid- ing through the woods On their heads were feathers and their faces "Oh, oh, Indians," tley both cried. What shall 've do? If they see us they will carry us away. Let's hide some place. creep along and hide in the bushes." They at last reached a place where the bushes grew thick and low and nearly hid them, The indians kept | shouting and waving their poles and big red hatches and the girls were | frightened almost to death and won-| dered -if the Indians would' ever go | away. Just then, one of the girls had to move for her foot was asleep and the Indians heard her and quickly found the hiding place and started towards it with an awful whoop. ' They pulled the frightened girls out and made them sit inside the cir- cle while the ferocious red men danc- ed around them with blood-thirsty whoops and yells, The girls had their eyes shut and were crying as hard hard as 'could be. Finally one of the girls plucked up courage enough to open her eyes and then she be- gan to laugh as hard as she had cried ' She saw then thag the Indians were only some of the boys from the farm who had painted their faces and made themselves up as Indians just te have fun with the girls.
