' which Province of Feature of Late â€"_ ' The most striking feature of per ' sonal politics of late has been the rise ~cf the new men, such as Colonel Seety, 'Sir Rufus Isaacs, Sir John Simon. Mr, Runciman, Mr. Montagu, scarcely made their mark before 1906. Sir Rufus Isaacs came into parlia- ment eight years ago with all the '- Weight of the largest practicesat the Common Law Bar behind him; brt he has gone outside the path of the successful political lawyer and shown 'a comprehensive grasp of affairs be- .yond the legal range and a special r-aptitude for industrial problems. Not V ‘less noticeable is the rise of the junior flaw oiflcer.. Sir John Simon entered ‘- the House of Commons in 1906 a ' young stuff gcwnsman already marked out for eminence at the Bar. .I-Ie was :2 KC. at thirty-seven, and to~day many people think that he can make his choice between becoming eventual- 'ly Lord Chancellor, if he sticks to his ‘mrofession, or Prime Minister if he :abandous it. He possesses the most valuable of all qualities in English politicsâ€"the capacity for inspiring .confidence. . Colonel Seely is another of the new men who is both popular and respec- ‘ted, and there is a general feeling that if anybody can put the military tan- ;gle straight this fresh-faced, low- ‘ voiced soldier will do it. At least, if ‘rhc fails it will be from no want of re solute effort and unshrinking devo- :tion to the task. Mr. Montagu and Mr. Masterman have yet to “arrive.” Both {have done well enough as Under- :Secretaries to establish their title to Mr. Runciman has made his claim good already, though ‘he has not quite fulfilled the promise .of his parliamentary adolescence. ‘ It is from this group of lawyers and Filaymen, most of them nearly unknown seven yearsago, that the future lead- ers of Liberalism will be drawn.

Race suicide, so often pointed to as :a grave peril for France, is invisibly remote in French Canada. The pro vince of Quebec so abounds in large families that' it is capable of supply. ‘ing the deficiency of its mother-coun- ‘try. ‘Indced the late distinguished :economist. llr. Leroy Beaulieu, recent- ‘ly said: “Give us 10.000 French-Can adians and we will repeople France." In '1754 the last census under French regime showed 55,000 French in Cana- da. This number has doubled every twenty-five years, says Eugene Routi- pard, so that now they agregate 3.300.- 000. - .In 1890 the Government of the Quebec passed a law granting a piece of land to every head of a. familiy that could boast of twelve or more children. This grant wag later changed to a cash premium. En: id] 19051. total of 5.414 families re ceived the premium. or thisnumber 160 families had 14 to 18 living chil- dren: in some ca‘sesfiwhere one or the‘ «other of the parents was married twice the number of living children reared 1mm 18 to 27. Since thejoundatlgp who had. of revolutionary legislation and haz-. or Quebec‘m 1605 mere have been an- ’iered upon the parish registers, up to 883, a total of 2,900,000 births, or 67.25 per one thousand population. French-Canadian families of eight and ten children are not uncommon. The average size of a family is five chil- drenâ€"an average that will be main- tained, one should think, unless al- coholism, which is beginning to plague our race, pervades the rural districts.

FASHIONS. lNTb’M‘éSTONEs The Celtic Cross ls Quite the Proper Thing in ,Tombstoncs â€"_ “There are fashions in tombstones, just the same as in hats and clothes," said a monument worker, “and even if they don’t change quite as often We have to keep up with them. A few years ago broken columns were all the go, and we had our hands full executing such orders. Then came the St. Andrew's Cross. It’s 'shaped like an X .and most of our orders ran to that sort of cross. "Now the Celtic cross is in vogue, and it is quite the proper thing to have put on your monument. They offer a considerable field for decora- tion and traceries, but I supp0se they will have their run and something new will come in. An experienced tomb- stone maker can tell approximately when a monument was put up without looking at the-date on it, if he has kept-up with the fashions." A USE FOR OLD PIANOS Trlbcsman Who Converted It Into‘ a Bed ' A Labrador tribe, it is said, made the barrels stolen from’a wrecked whaler serve as chimney-tops; the West Indians utilized Timothy Dex- ter’s warming pane for sugar ladies and the Shans find no worse use for English beer bottles than to stick them up as household gods to keep away evil spirits. But the drollest instance~of converted usage occurred when that adventurous Frenchman, De Tonnant, while in Patagonia, gave an old chief a worn out grand piano which he had bought for eighty francs. A few days after making this gen- erous present, De Tonnant went one morning to pay an early visit to the Patagonian. He found him sleep ng peacefully with his wife inside the, piano, from which he had carefully removed sounding board, strings, etc., and which thus transformed consti- tuted a not uncomfortable bedstead. Long Trip for Baby Shipped all the way from Liverpcol, England, to Calgary. Alta, by express cared for on the way by ladies young and old who were coming to Canada to make a home in this country, Rose Steele Richardson, an 18 months od baby, reached Calgary and is safe in the hands of her mother, none the worse for her long journey across the water-and the thousands of miles by all. .‘fl ._ .g ,. n l CHARACTER IN. THE NOSE I WWW. Scientists would have us believe that disposition, inclinations and even character can be read by taking notice of the color and texture of the hair, the shape of the eyes and mouth, and especially the shape of the nose and its size. It is claimed that hair can be ar- ranged to please the eye of the ob- server; the eyes can be used in such a manner to charm their beholder, but no man or woman can disguise the nose. The long nose is the sign of power, even of genius. This is quite a con- solation for those so blessed. The straight nose indicates a just mind, serious, fine, judicial and ener- getic. The nose like an eagle's beak is the sign of an adventurous spirit, greedy for gain. 0 The broad nose with spreading nos- trils indicates great sensuanty. The fleshy, arched nose is indicative of a. cruel, domineering nature, and isjto be avoided, if possible. A blunt, slender nose means that its possessor is quickwitted, some- what ironicai, but not deep in know- ledge. The retrusse (pug) nose is the mark of a feeble mind, even coarse in breeding; their owners are usually cheerful and gay, however. Pale noses show egotistic qualities, envious natures and coldhea’rtedness, but often great intelligence. A highly color-ed nose indicates a lively disposition. The owner is usually indulgent in his or lzer plea- sures and full of emotional outbreaks. . ways, then crossways. Signalman 20 Miles Away Can Apply Brakes, Says Inventor» Herr von Kramer, the inventor of the system of communicating by tele- phone from moving trains, says he has developed an invention in conjunction with Herr Kapp, who has evolved a sensitive detector, whereby. it is pos- sible to pick up the feeble currents received by a train and relay them up into stronger currents so as to operate electric bells and hooters and even apply brakes. He declares that a slgnalman from' ten to twenty miles away will thereby be enabled to stop a train by merely pressing a buttonfi The Germans are leaders in a new industry, which is the means of mak- ing wood into yarn, cloth, twine, car- pets, and imitation silk and canvas, all of which are proof against the ac- tion of both hot and cold water. “Sil- vatin” yarn' is made near, Berlin, from spruce wood. In Saxony, “xylolin” yarn is manufactured from paper and wood pulp. Sawdust and the waste wood from fashioning rectangular boards from tree trunks can now be scientifically converted into use ful materials.
