The brains of Canadian statesman- shipâ€"I mean statesmanship; not the erection of a post-office here, of a bridge there. and the handing out of a job somewhere elseâ€"must be direct- ed to making clear the two-fold. funda- mental basis of our national progreu â€"the development of Canadian com- merce In Canadian channels. and the extending of the right idea or Cana- dian national prestige. in its relation to international and inter-Imperial affairs. «m? You cannot expect a farmer-in the Saskatchewan valley to be well in- formed about the possibilities of trouo ble that may lie within our connection with India. Australia and South Afri- ca. He is the great statesman who, knowing all the intricacies of state- craft. which he cannot publish. can guide the great body of public opinion aright on the big, 'nnderlylng princi- ples which dominate national action. All this means that the obligation upon Canadian statesmanship is more subtle and tremendous than it ha ever been. We have established a part- ment'of External Affairs to handle our culiar three-cornered relationships, ut this Department is not specially charged with the duty of keeping our internal population well informed about the niceties or our external re- lations. a - 5 sible has been achieved. They used to say that you could not allow‘ an overseas Dominion of the Crown to have responsible government in ei- actly the same way as the .United Kingdom. They said that a Colonial Governor should not be compelled to accept the advice of his Ministers when they had a majority of the popu- lar House. But these things are done and the Imperial bond is closer and. warmer than it has ever been. .

The way the British Em- pire keeps together is a regular Chi- nese puzzle to all sorts of clever statesmen. They can't make it out at Washington. Sometimes we can’t quite make it out ourselvesâ€"this loose, strong. splendid partnership that girdles the world and has none of the ordinary forces of Imperial compul- sion about it. The Dominion is one otjhe junior partners. | . What these people are most puzzled 'about is the way this old John Bull :keeps the affections of his children, who have become his partners. “Why," they say. “he used to declare that they would soon leave him. and. here they are closer than ever to the Old Gentleman with the side whiskers and the peculiar pants " l 3 John Bull has regarded himself as .. good-natured soul who is taking ear. of a few hits or land scattered around the globe in the interests of civilian.- ltion generaIyâ€"a sort of political philanthropist. The other fellows in‘ the International field don't regard him' inthat light. They think he is a grasp-l dug old codger who, instead of being batistied with control of nearly all the strategic strongholds of land and m bower. puts up an awful howl as soon as anybody else looks around for a second-rate coaling station. or a bit of .rock from which his traders may saunter into a hitherto undiscovered I market. ‘ There are all sorts of funny W abroad about the firm of John Bull Unlimited, and especially about the Old Fellow himself. He seldom takes a good look at himself, and until lately he hasn't cared a gramme what other peo'ple thought of him. I '. “Gd 72 Ml Toâ€"day. there we e champ.

Such a climax as this, was invari- ably .rvachod at the end of the month: but her day in town brought comfort to ihn girl. From the mo- ment in “hich she entered. the i-rowdi-d strwts. her own life with its over - familiar sur- roundinus was lost, sight of. She for- got her humiliations. she forgot to lo;ithn and t’l-spiao herself: she became engrossed in th- study of others. Her own personality was thrust upon bf notii-e every day in the month save this. when she could study other per- sonnlities. Every face she passed had a. history written on it for her to decipher. There was no scope {or he imagination in the Feldrossan faces and line and dwellings. the details of which she already knew too intimate- ly; here overylh‘ng was unknown, and therefore intensely inleresting. Having noted doWn her uncle's com- misions on this particular morning, she added to her list, Mary Forcster's requirements as the cousins walked together to the Manse gate. ,‘ Kati 1153 not attempted to dis- cover why it was ‘that these days I spent in town Were more dear to her than any others in the year. She fretted {or them till they came. en- joyed them fully while they passed, j and dwelt on the memory of them when they were gone. Life at Fel- drossan seemed to her so small, so narrow. No one knew how the girl chafed over the duties that occupied her. True. they were varied en- iough to have satisfied most minds. lThere were household affairs to be ordered, linen and clothes to be mended, letters to be written for her uncle. and books and papers to be read to him: also the garden must ' be tended, and fruit and flowers with 'sympathy and advice. carried to -this parishoner or that. Enough lscope here. surely, for the most vig- orous young lady? Kate found it insufficient. Her former life had been passed in a great town, a cen- tre of ceaseless activity. where she had studied and brooded and dream- ed through her youth of the great Ithings to be done by her when her opportunity came. Her uncle asked her to live with him. and She thought her opportunity had come. Exactly what she had expected she did not know: but year after year her horizon instead of widening. seemed to narrow itself, her mental mowers instead of developing hecmne jto her thinking dwarfed. Her as- pirations had been so great. her at- ‘iaimnents were so dismnlly small. All the philosophy which she drank in greedily from the works of Mr. Emerson and Mr. Carlyle. did not prevent her bursting into hitter tears sometimes. when. after having had her sensibilities \vourtled in a dozen places, she would make some such discovery as that the lncorri'rihlc Bella had committed an unpardon- able sin in mixing too much drip- ping with the oatcakes! The tears were shed in private. of course: Kate stormed at. herself for her want of senseâ€"crying at a trifle. when reel troubles {mind her tearless. FHE WATCI-MANâ€"WARDER, LINDSAY, ONTARIO.
