LINDSAY -WARDER, APRIL 4th., 1901 He is a very firm man. but it is more a steady strength of character than it is obstinucy. Hus does not get angry and boil over. His first opinions of matters and things are generally his best. If he won- driving a team and iL got frightened. or the harness broke going down hill he would know just, what to do at the first flash of thought. He can judge strangers, and if then- was any conversation he would rcmembvr a good deal of what was said. a fine jm Although reliant. ( he loved These two faculties prevent him from being rash in his actions. and enable him to use forethought and judgement in \tht he does. and this- undoubimily is the secret of his past sum-erases. He is a very active man. and it. does not take him long to consider what. is best to do in cases of emergency. The. general shape of his head is long and high rather than broad. hence he will alâ€" ways be inclined to be just and merâ€" ciful. He is modu'ato in hope and as his Cautionsm-ss is large he will not count his chickens till they are hatch ed discrves. He gathers lmowledge readilgw by observation and siores his mind with facts. He is adapted for an out-door active life and a pursuit, in which mind and hands are equal-l 1y employed. He is an honest mam and can be relied upon to do the right thing. He is full of courage and daring. This general has had ta. brilliant. career, and although ad- H'anced in years, it can be said "his inatural force is not abated." He is a born soldier inhorganizg- tion and mental power, and spright- liness, promptness, keenness of per- ception, and mental activity are lead- ing traits in his character. In e\'01‘_V~ age, a few persons by force of genius, talent, or powerful character, rise above the level of the. rest, and make themselves eonâ€" spicuous marks of historic interest. Lord Roberts was born in 1832 at Cawnpore and is 69 years of' '“iige. His organization is a very interest- ing study. He has a strong body and a strong; mind. His muscles and bony framework are good and gin- him. power and endurance for the labors of life. His features are strongly marked. See thrt nose. One remarkable feature about it is hits length and the width of the pvings. which denote good hrtatliing 1powtr and ability to attend 10 (1:;â€" tails.

A CHARACTER SKETCH 0F LORD ROBERTS Montreal. wholesale They also have yards in Pretoria and in Johannesburg. Mostly all the timber gods to the minus. They have some fine timber. Timber is worth from £20 to £30 pm" thousand so you see you can't build houses for nothing. Mr. Lingham. the presidâ€" ent of the company, is a Canadian. The country around is not it suc- cess for agriculture. The soil is fertile enough but the insects and locusts destroy so much and then the rains are not certain enough to make it pay. This has been it dry summer and the Katflirs are. short. on their hie-lilies this year. The lor- u‘sts come in clouds: sometimes will almost hide the sun from you and eat exterythingr in sight that is «green. Then they may go away and you don't see any more of them for a time but if it keeps dry they keep foragingr all the time looking for green corn or something else tasty. Of course they would not be so low- minded as to eat weeds though. I have never seen a. burdock or n dandelion or thistle since. coming" here. There. are not many large trees hereâ€"only a few wild fig trees that haw: their fruit growing on the hack of the. branches. Very odd to see it growing there. We. have a. thorny, gummy 'trce, called mimosa which has bloomed six times this year, so far. It has a cluster of yellow flowers on it and gives nice perfume. There were no flowers this summer as it. has been too dry for them. ‘_ - ‘ ' ‘7 .A__-.a. Bz-llevillc was his home. There‘ai‘e Canadians all over Africa. I think you'll find some wherever you go.

PETTY it was formerly the custom to have Boots, Hats and Shirts made to measure only. but modern ingenâ€" uity revolutionized this and placed the public in such a position as to enable them to obtain the same articles read y-to-wear in a measure more advantageous to their taste and purse. So it is with Clothing. Seeing the necessity of the same improvements in Men’s Wearing Apparel, the manufacturers invented the process by which this end could be attained. The result has been that their Clothing equals, and even surpasses, the work of many of the merchant tailors. 4 HOURS EAST [If POST flfHEE We believe in doing a few things and doing them well, this is our reason for retiring from Dry Goods, that we might give our whole time to MEN S and BOY’S CLOTHlNG, FURNlSHlNGS, HATS, ETC.
