WWHâ€"Q Our Stock Of ‘ l BOOTS I ' I g And Yes, there is a famine in India. The number of people who are starving there is greater than the entire popu- lation of' Canada. ‘ Yet India produces enough for all. She exported more goods in 1896 than she imported by $111.250,690; and the amount now is placed at $150,000,000 per year. _ Nearly all this amount goes to Great Britain, whose imports in 1896 exceed- ed her exports by $535,252,000; and the story of one year is the story of every year, with variations. Send produce to Indial Why, when India produces more than she needs ? Send money to India! That is what capitalists desire, for a market at home is preferable to a market abroad. I Help the sufi'erersl Yes! But how '3 Relieve their wants and save their lives; that is charity, which all should prac- tice. But the man who is charitable and not just is not blameless. Wherein, then, lies justice?

If iamines are only “ visitations from God,” what has the the British House of Commons to do with an Indian fa- mine? Nonsense! The motion intro- troduced means Applied Christianity if silo investigation is really made. and an lonest report presented and acted upon. Japanese Fern Baiis' What can the Commons do ? This question is answered by a sentence in an editorial in the London Labour Lea- der. It says: “ What adds to the hor- ror of the situation is that these iam- , ines are all due to preventible causes, for the continuance of which the Gov- ernment is directly responsible.” A penny a. day will maintain a hu~ The [lid Reliable Drug Store.
