She has founl that women are, on the whole, more sensitive to pain, but they bear it better, That men are every bit as frivolous and vain, but they usually display better taste. “'omen have a better eye for color, however, and, 0'; the whnle. better memories; but man is acknmvledged their superior by a long way in the matter of ingenuity.

Wet into a mi." dough with the smallest possible amount of cold water or milk. Roll out. and with the crust line a greased bowl or agate pan. Fill with chop- ped, dry figs. over which pour a cup of maple syrup, cover with the crust, well pinched together, and steam for two hours If a suet crust is preh red. do not have it too rich. and steam the pudding for three hours. Jam Pudding.â€"Melt two ounces of butter and add it to two beaten eggs, then stir in a half pint of any pre- ferred jam or marmalade. Butter 3 pudding mould and put in a layer of bread crumbs, then a layer of jam mixture and so on until the dish is full, having crumbs on top. Bake or steam, as is most convenient, turn out on a plate and serve either hot or cold with cream, whipped or plain. Rhubarb Preserveâ€"A pound and a half of rhubarb, a pound and a quar- ter of sugar, a quarter of a pound of figs, an ounce of candied peel, a pound and a quarter of either lemon or oranges. Cut the rhubarb into inch lengths, cover with chopped fig and peel, then with sugar. Let stand over night, then boil slowly till done. A different flavor is given by adding half an ounce of root ginger, remov- ing it at the end of an hour. Eggs may be prepared in many dif- ferent ways for supper.

May 30th. we made some assertions in re. gard to easier money in Canada. and the following from “Saturday Night" will be interesting: ' “The tendency is towards easier rates for call money in Canada. While it had been thought that local banks were extending accommodation on this class of collateral, some surprise was expressed on the appearance of the April bank statement last week to find that call loans in Canada had actually decreased over $2,000,000 dur ing the past month. and that foreign loans had also decreased, but the lat ter fell off only to the extent of $1.- 250,000. The domestic loans were the smallest in about three years. It is plain, therefore, that our banks are not fostering speculation. The situa- tion, doubtless. does not warrant free lending on stocks, and this applies as well to the loans made of a purely {business character, for we find that commercial discounts in April were ireduced $5,300,000 and the total amount of this class of loans was $539,330,000 as compared with $586,- 149,000 a year ago. a contraction in that period of $46,810,000. The re- striction in credits probably means our banks are preparing for the tinâ€" ancing ol the cr0ps. the outlook at present being that the grain yield will exceed that of any previous year in Canada. Estimates are being made that the wheat yield in the Canadian Northwest this year will aggregate 120,000,000 bushels. The increased speculation here in securities gave rise to the report that banks must be lending more freely, but it would now appear as if many holders of inter- national securities had arranged with their New York brokers to have their stocks carried there instead of here. There is a difference of about 2 per cent. in the money rates, which favor New York. The Canadian deposits in our banks show a further increase. but this increase in April was smaller than in March. The increase was $6,- 000,000 in April. as against an in- crease of $8,000,000 in March. While trade discounts, on the other hand. in- _.A ‘l....‘_ bl auc unavv u.. -- creased about" $4,000,000 in March, they decreased $5,700,000 in April.

Canada has to own up that we do not need more immigrants-especially oi the kind that we have usually been gv‘ting. We are taunted by England and the European countries that we said we had a rich country. with inimitable resources. and that we had room for all comers. Well, we were not far wrong, but this is a new country and we need a little time to assimilate the thousands who have come to us. The process of weeding out must go on. Some will go back home wtth anything but a love for the country. but there still is plenty of opportunity for those who are ambitious and will- ing to accustom themselves to new conditions.
