Any treaty which permits canals built for purposes of com- merce to become a source of danger to this country onght to be rejected. no matter what advantages it may offer in return for the privilege. Canada is in no position to be guided by British ad- vice in a matter of this kind. It is this country’s security which would be de- strnycd by the opening.r of canals to Am erican war vessels, and if Queen Vic- toria and Lord Salisbury begged for the ratification of such a treaty. it would still be the duty of every states- man mindful of Canada's safety to say no.â€" Telegram. ~â€"â€"â€"--+o Penny Postage. The first letter to be sent to England under the new penny postage willbc lrom the Governor-General to fler Majesty the Queen, and from the Post- mastcr~Geueral of Canada to the Post- master-General of England. In like manner the first letter from England posted on Christmas will be from the Queen of England to the Governor Gen oral and the administrators of all col- onies which are in the ocean postage: scheme. Of course, all such letters are in ordinary cases franked and free. but the paying by stamp will be adopted for these pnaticular letters in order to commemorate the inauguration ofpeuny postage on both sides of the Atlantic.

The two branches of the ancient and honor- able profession of barber surgeons are drawing together again in their exclu- sivcness. Perhaps if the barbers will help the doctors to a monopoly of the pill and lotion business, the doctors will help the bothers to a monopoly of the hair lotion trade. What a heaven this Country will be when everybody can prevent his neighbor from doing some- thing he wants to do or compel him to do something he does not want to do 1 When we have one league to tell us what we must not drink and another to tell us what we must not eat! When a man will have to endure a stomach ache until he can afford to call in a member of the College of Physicians and Surgeons and pay tribute to a member of the Pharmaceutical Associ- ation. It is all very well for doctors and druggists to abuse patent medi- cines, but the fact, remains that. to a large proportion of our people patent medicines are a necessity. The very general use- year after year of certain standard preparations is as good a proof of their practical value as a certificate from the College of Physicians and Surgeons. Most doctors of good repute admit that a great many proprietary medicines are articles of merit and vir- toe, and that many doctor’s pcrscrip- tions are Vilaâ€"Montreal Star. o-.â€"â€"â€"â€"â€" Danger Threatens Canada. Canadians are looking confidently to the commissioners at Washington to put up a stone-wall front against the advances of the United States diplomats who want. the privilege of building war- ships at lake ports and taking them to the sea through Canadian canals. The treaty of 1818 still holds good, and it; is. :1 Standing: safeguard to Canada. Once permission is given to the United States to build warships on these lakes, Canada's safety is gone forever. The United States has thousands of miles of sea on... furnished with way facility for ship-building. Why do they want to conic into the Great. Lakes? It is urged that the U .ited States demands â€"for requests from the United States are. dcmamlsâ€"shonld be met in order that the imperial relations may not. be ruffled. Canada is anxious to aid in the movements of the Mother Country, but she has a future of her own. and that future must not be imperilled by lightly resigning one of the strongest: safeguards which this country has {Against possibilities. Sentiment blows with the wind across the line, and friendliness purchased for the Mother Country. even at this immense cost to Canadian interests, which L’l'untlll’.’ this demand would mean, might last but for a day.â€" Toronto Star. n.4>.â€"~ To and From Canada.
