Writing in Indus-trial Canada Mr. Watson Griffin comments as follows on the Retiprocify agitation in the United .Stafos: According to the Boston Herald the greatest. game to be played in international politics in the near future is to be with a fool)- ball called “reciprocity,” and “as goes the battle so rises or sets the star of a great consolidated British Empire." “The indications are that the awakening of American statesmen has come,” continues the Herald. “'l‘he contest draws on, and the great prize is Canadaâ€"nomâ€" inally commercial Canada, but ac- tually the political Dominion." In other words, the Boston llerâ€" ald believes that if the agitation for a reciprocity treaty between Canada and the United States is successful, the British Empire will go to pieces and Canada will fall as a rich prize to Uncle Sam. _)anada would, indeed, be a. great prize, and the people of the United States are just beginning to realize the value of it. Fortunately, the statesmen of’ the United States are not the only ones wl/io have awaken- ed to the value of Canada. British statesmen are beginning to appreâ€" ciatc the possibilities of the Domin- lon, and best of all our own statesâ€" men now know how to value this great heritage. Sir Wilfrid Laurier has well said that Canada is to be the country of the twentieth cen- tury. It is not conceivable that the Premier who holds such a high View of Canada’s future will consent fito any arrangement by which the Dom- inion will become the prize of the .lepublic. It. is true that Sir Wilfrid Laurier once favored reciprocity with the United States, but he said sov- cral years ago in the Canadian House of Commons: “Canadians no longer desire reciprocity.” 'Those were true words as regards the great. majority of the Canadian people at that time, and they are even truer toâ€"day than they were then. The change of sentiment. is due to the fact that they now appreciate the posa'ibiiitics of Canada as they never did before. They agree with Sir Wilâ€" frid in thinking that. Canada is to be the celmtry of the twentieth Cenâ€" tury, and they have no desire to surrender it. to the United States. They believe that Canadians should have all the advantages to be deâ€" rived from the opening up of this grand country, and if the people of the adjoining Republicâ€"trio country of the nineteenth centuryâ€"want to share the profits of the wonderful deâ€" velopment which is about to take place, they must move across the border into the country of the twen- tieth century. TO KILL IMPERIAL RECIPRO- CITY. If; is probable that the reciprocity agitation in the United States would be confinccl almost entirely to a few cities not far from the Canadian border, such as Bostou,'Bufi'alo, lJ-eâ€" ‘We’ll Write It Down Till 5 Everybody Knows lt Without Seeing It.

On the other hand, any increase Canada and the United States means extra traffic for United States' railâ€" ways. A reciprocity treaty that would enable the big industrial cen- tres of the United States to supply Canadians with manufactured goods and 'drive Canadian manufacturers out. of business, would ruin the great Canadian railways. When the factories. which supply the Canadian people with goods are in Canada, Canadian railways must. carry the raw materials as well as the finished. products. They must carry provi-I sions, clothing, and furniture to the' workingmon. To take an extreme case to show the value of Canadian factories to the great railways, sup-, pose that all the factories in ’l‘oronâ€"l to, Hamilton and Ottawa, with the workmen employed in them, were; suddenly transferred to the City of; Buffalo, what an immense falling off: there would be in Canadian railway! business, although Buffalo is just on! the other side of the border. Sup-l pose th-at all the factories in all the cities, towns and villages of Canâ€"l wcla were transferred to towns and cities or the United States, the railâ€" . . ways of Canada would be obliged to (lis:.‘lla1‘ge threeâ€"fourths of their emâ€"l ploycos', for every bl‘ancltbf their busi css would decline ,Aindian extra-3 ordinary way. Of gourse a rccipro~ city treaty would not close up: every Canadian factory, but it wpuld close, up many of them, and e15.er factory closed would be a direct loss to the railways.

Tho harmless slug is generally credited with no greater intelligence than’the power to crawl aimlessly about, leaving a slimy track behind it. In a letter to the London Times, however, Dr. Horace Dobell, writing from I’arkstone Heights, Dorset, gives remarkable proof of its possession of an cxocllent memory and ‘a considerable amount of reaâ€" soning power. ‘ One morning I observed the silver trail of a slug or snail round about the spot where the crumbs had been. Even the smallest crumbs had been cleared up. “But what especially struck me was that the trail came straight up to the crumbs. There was no sign of wondering about .in search of them, but an evidence of knowledge of the exact place at which to find them. . “I watched the window after this, and found that. just before dark a. large brown slug came straight up to the spot and ate'tho remaining ‘crumbs. “For two it came more nights again and ate the crumbs as before, 7 being accompanied "on the second night by a small brown sing about half its size. - 'fI then washed out the trail that 'it should not be guided by it. but; the slug continued .to come on fine nights. ‘Exccpt on wot nights, when it. did not appear at all, it came straight over the edge of the sill op- posite the crumbs, and continued to, come every few nights throughout July and August. “One night I put out some grains of rice, but the slug left them un- touched. ‘ “The interesting question for scienâ€" tists,” adds Dr. ‘Dobcll, “is, How did the slug find the crumbs in the first instance, and how did it; know the exact time at which to climb up for them?” . l LABELLED OLD MAIDS. In some parts of Siam a girl who reaches a certain 'age without marry- ing is labelled, and placed in a privâ€" ilcgcd class under the special care of the King, who binds himself to find a. husband for them all. His method is delightfully simple. A prisoner in any one of the Siamese goals may gain his pardon and reâ€" lease by marrying one of the inelig~ ible class.
