The Montreal Slur says : Province of Quebec of the lllanufac‘ turers’ Life Insurance Company, has been appointed general manager of that Company. as well as of the Manufac- turers’ Guarantee and Accident Com- pany, with head ofii'ces at Toronto. The vacancy was caused by the resigna- tion of Mr. J. F. Ellis, as managing director of the two companies. Mr. Junkin, although quite a young man, first entered the insurance field twelve years ago as general agent for the Sun Life Insurance Company at Brockville, being afterwards promoted. to the gen- eral agency of that Company, which position he resigned three years ago to accept the managemth of the Mann- -lactwrer's Life-Eon this province. Mr. Junkin, who is at present in Toronto, is expected in Montreal on Saturday.” The new general manager is Mr. James F. Junkie, soc-cf Mr. John Jun- kin. of the third concession of Vcrulam. and brother of Mr. Robert Junkin, who 'is also in. the insurance business, in ‘which they have both been eminently successful. Mr. J. F. Junkin is a young man to have attainedas prominent a. position, as he is not much more than 30 years of age. Whisky vs. Tobacco. A Montreal despalch to the Maid says that 70,000,000 cigarettes were consumed in Canada. last year, and the News thinks the statement is alarming, as it means that the average emsump- lion for each male over fifteen years of age was fifty, and says: “ It may not be considered expedient to prohibit the use of cigarettes alto- gether, but. certainly the tax on them should be made high enough to greatly restrict a habit which causes the most serious injury to the constitutions of those who indulge to excess in. it." ~Wc very much doubt whether the News's suggestion is a good one, as those who smoke to excess do so because they are slaves to the habit, and would Iuse just as many cigarettes per day if the price were artificially raised as they do now. The only effect, therefore, of increasing the tax would be to make the indulgence more expensive or to force smokers to use inferior tobacco, which is generally understood to be more injurious than that of a better- quality. We are strongly in favor of Village Council Proceedings. Council met at the call of the recvc. All the members present. Minutes of last. meeting read and approved. Mr. Dickson read a communication from Mr. Rogers re the fireball site, and from Mr. McSweyn re electric light suit. Tenders lor gravel were laid on the R. Jackctt, John Quibell and John H. Brandon. On motion of Messrs.- Mar- tin and Fitzgerald, John Quibell’s tender was accepted at 350. per yard. Requests from A. Quibell for a cross ing and from T. Roberts for opening a street to his lot were referred to the street and bridge committee. A petition praying that the council purchase the old Presbyterian church, signed by Joseph Heard and 89 other freeholdcrs, was presented, and. on motion of" Messrs. Fitzgerald and Mar- tin. laid over till next meeting. Messrs. Campbell, McFarland, Bran- don, Scott and Deymau,'rcprcscnting merchants of the village, waited on the council re passing a by-law governing transient traders. Mr. Fitzgerald gave notice of a by- law to be introduced at next regular meeting to govern transient traders, and the council adjourned. m Powles’s Corners. nothing about it say it is, it would verily be “straining at a goat and swallowing a camel ” to waste time and eloquence fighting it, or to pass laws against it, while whisky is, so to speak, running at large. No community would devote its energies. to- extirpating rats and mice while lions and tigers were committing wholesale ravages, and to bacon is no more to be compared to whisky than the annoying and predatory little rodents are to be compared to the ferocious carnivoraa. What the world needs, to make it a five hundred per cent. better place to live in, are prohi- bition, tax on land‘val'ues only, and free trade, and until these have been ob- tained and public attention can be, devoted to less important matters, it is . likely that all attempts to abolish, or even materially lessen, the use of tobacco will end in smoke.

If the block had been of wood instead of brick, there might have been a disas- trous fire; as it was, nothing was de- stroyed except the shanty. a window each side of it in the wall, and some plaster and three or four suits of clothes in the work-shop.
