The C. P. R. liner Metaga- ma will probably carry the remains, which will be buried beside those of Lady Tupper. ' Although three acute heart at- tacks had caused serious apprehen- sion, his wonderful vitality had sup- ervened on the one of three weeks ago, and an enquiry made «two days before his death dismissed the idea of immediate danger. Up to five weeks ago, Sir Charles was moving about the house, and journeyed to London, a trip of twelve miles, to see his grandson, Lieut. R. H. Tup- | per, who had returned wounded from the front. The latter sailed for Can- ada on the 13th of October. Like Lord Strathcona, Sir Charles had kept up his correspondence, diaries and other work to the last, and dictated in his bedroom For the past four years he had lived in absolute retirement at Bexley Heath, a small Kentish town, and enjoy- ed peace by the absence of a tele- phone in his house. As announced a year ago- Sir Charles had acceded to the request of his Montreal friends, including Sir William Van Herne, to sic for a sculptured bust, a North London ar- tist, Frederic Lessore, produving a pleasing model, which was exhibited at the Academy this year Lessore said that the study of his features showed him to be alive with mental acumen and energy, which Was most worderful in so aged a mia, It was in keeping with his life work that his last public utterance in London was at a meeting of the British Empire Club on November 13th, 1911, when he gave a 2i-m:nu- te address on an Imperial topic. The penalty was a severe chi!l, which caused a cessation of such ugtivities, Sheafs of cables and teleg;ams piled on a desk bore silent testimony as to how the news had reached a wide circle. The Duke of Ceon- naught's message was addressed to the new heir, who is supposed to be in Winnipeg. One from E. W. Villen- euve, of Montreal, on behalf of the Cartier Centerary Committee, was a reminder of the postponed scheme by whiclt Sir Charles was to'have un- veiled the statue by pressure of an electric button at his residence. A National Funeral. Ottawa, Nov. 3.--Beyond an inti- mation that Sir Charles Tupper will be buried beside his wife at Fair- view, near Halifax, nothing has been arranged yet with regard to the fun- eral of the deceased statesman. Sir Robert Borden, it is expected, will attend the funeral, and other members of the Government will likely be present. The Prime Minis ter's proposed western trip will not take place until after the funeral, and may have to be postponed inde- finitely, as ten days or more must elapse before he can return from the east. The Government is in'communica- tion swith Sir Charles Hibbert Tup- per, who is arranging to bring the body across the ocean, but no details have as yet begn completed. Nothing has been heard here of the sugges- tion that the remains be brought to Canada on a warship, It does not emanate from the Government or from the Tuppet family, and is very unlikely of acceptance under existing conditions. The funeral is likely to be of a national character, and it'is more than propable that a permanent mon- ument will be erected to the memory of the great nation builder, either in Ottawa or in his native province of Nova Scotia Freight, London, ress in the blockade against ° Ger- many is noted by the Stockholm cor- respondent of the Morning Post, who says that, although the Swedish ferries have resumed service with Germany, they will carry only pas- sengers and mails. An agreement, he adds, has been reached with the British Government that these boats should no longer transport freight.

The city of Prague, with a popula- tion of about 600,000, has only about 800 physicians, or one for every 7,000 persons. A doctor charges for a day- time call in a middle class 'family only 00 cents, or 10 cents mere than if the patient calls on him in bis office. For a night call the doctor receives from $1.20 to $2, #ccording to the distance. i Only professors at the clinics of "the two local universities charge more, re ceiving $2 to $4 for a house call and $2 for an office visit. As in this country, the physicians give only prescriptions. | About 100 dentists practice in Prague, The average charges are: Drawing one tooth, 40 cents; cement filling, 60 cents to $1; amalgam filling, 80 cents to $2. The annual income of these profes. sional men is estimated as follows: Head professor in charge of clinics, salary paid by the government, $1,440 | to $1,600, and $5,000 to $11,000 from private practice; other professors at clinics; salary paid by the government, | $1,000, and from private practice, $4, 000 to $10,000; general medical prac- titioner not attached to any clinic, $3,000 to $3,600, the average income of a dentist being $5,000. ie MAKING OTHERS HAPPY. Why Put It Off Till Tomorrow When it May Be Done Today? Why should we postpone our loving and the being happy that goes with it? The wife we are going to show more | affection for as soon as we have made a little more of a pile. The husband we are going to be more companionable and sunshiny with as soon as we get a little more service in the house, the children whose lives we will enter into more fully as soon as we feel the pres- sure of circumstances a little less, the people we are going to show how ge nial we really are as soon as we have | time--none of these ways of loving de- pends on the things we are waiting for. Indeed, our opportunity comes more | now than it will come when we have | these things. The very pressure of our days bring us in.contact with many | people who most need a show of kind- | ness and who will most warmly re | spond to it. The wife most needs and will most value love in her days when | she is most being a helpmeet. The husband most needs and most prizes love in his years of struggle. 'What are we waiting for?

Three years later, on visiting the town for the second time, the master | novelist found .a deserted city. Not a light burned in the dismal railway sta- tion, no banners waved. no addresses were read by portly burgomasters. In vain Bjornson asked for a cab. "They have all gone to bed." was the reply.
