To give clothes that cer' tain touch of correctness which you are desirous of seeing in your garments, is distinctly a question of _ s ability on the part of the maker of the clothes. The quality is largely a matter of honesty. We believe you will get what you pay for, in the matter of fabrics and linings, if you buy clothes ’of a reliable make ; but if you want style combined with quality, it is a question of ability, not honesty. The makers of “ 20th Century ” and “ Progress Brand ” gar- ments have the ability, hence the style you always find in our clothing. Let us show you the splendid values we are offering at prices J.

Hamilton Merritt, for . years commanding officer of the Gov- ernor-General‘s Body Guards in To- I ronto, is impressed with the example I the United States capital holds out to ' Canadian cities in its manner of hon- ,oring national heroes. The city is decorated with beautiful works of sculpture at almost every turn. and many of these commemorate men dis- tinguished in the military and naval history of the country. Colonel Mer~ ritt has summarized these as follows: Revolutionary War heroes. 4; War of 1812-15, 3; Mexican War. 1; Civil War, 10. "Why," he 'asks. “cannot Canada honor our heroes of 1812 by the erection of monuments to cele- brate the centennial? And why are we afraid to call them ‘vlctories‘? The United States is not so considerate of others’ feelings. Besides. it is due to our own self-respect." . \ W~#M_.~_-_fiz--a___.mvw u...“ 3‘- . ‘ . i (‘3 c I ‘ p 1 ' am â€" r CLARENCE DAfiROfl_ The Chicago attorney: who defended Moyer, Haywood and I’ettibone, and may be retained for John and James McNamara. the alleged dynamiters. , .. IIVE CENTENARIANS â€"â€"â€"- A Wonderful Old Lady Who Had 170 Living Descendantsâ€"Remark- able Longevity Q be At Leicester Workhouse Infirmary the death has occurred of Mrs. Eliza- beth Jarrom. in her lolst year. When the old lady celebrated her 100th birth- day, on March 13th last. there were great rejoicings in the workhouseâ€"a birthday partyâ€"and a. big birthday cake. which Mrs. Jarrom took great interest in cutting. She had a family of eleven children. of whom six sur- vive, the eldest being a son of 72 years and the youngest 62. Her descendants include 48 grandchildren. 108 great- grandchildrcn. and eight great-great- grandchildren. making a total of 170. Mrs. Jarrom smoked a clay pipe regu- larly, and was the proud possessor of a putting radium within popular reach the world over depended upon an as- sured unlimited supply. Among the plans proposal by the German scien- tists is one providing for the intro duction of radium into various medi- cines and compounds. which are guar- anteed to cure maladies like rheuma- tism. gout. sciatica. diabetes. heart weekness. etc. Then a "radium ex~ haler" is also promised.

Themud which is the refuse of pitchblende after radium has been extracted, is also to be treated and:’ sold for “radio-mudbaths." RadLum' salts. another invention. have univer- sal use. For example. a piece the sizz- of a pin's head. placed on electric light switches. keynotes, etc.. will in darkness, indicate their location; while the same principle is also to be applied to ship‘s compasses. thus disâ€" pensing with artificial light. th‘n the scientists’ plans have matured, an extensive campaign is to be prosecuted In the United Statzs for the wider use of radium compounds.

Jumping up. the waiter noted that the alarm came from the room occupied by Far- mer Giles, who had come to town to see the sights. “Is it a fire or murder?" he cried, bursting into the farmer's room. “Eh, what?" replied the agricultur- ist. “What are you ringing for?" “I ain't ringing," he replied. “but I I've lost my collar stud. an' i’m tryin’ " The result or l to CHWIXB little pun out 0' the “'allI-t new proccsses wnl be the more rapzd' consumption cf radium. which will eventually be as easily obtainable as pills.

Few would dread the approach of old age if it came to all as gently 5nd lightly as it. has done to Mrs. Bacon, of Burghclere, Hampshire. whose hun- dredth birthday ,was marked by a let- ter of congratulation from the King. This wonderful old lady leads a life little that many a man or woman thirty years her junior might envy. Each morning she comes down to breakfasx at 8.30. and fills her day reading the newspapers and writing to and receiv- ing her many friends and relations. When it is fine she goes driving in a donkey-chaise. “I am not a very good walker now," she said, as she stepped out of'the low carriage and went briskly to the house. At luncheon and dinner she sits at the head of her table and carves or helps the various dishes. and In the evening. when tired of read’ lugâ€"she wears no spectaclesâ€"she plays bezique or some other game till Be a Great Year for Un- skilled Labor There are farmers in Toronto from as far distant as two hundrsd miles trying to get help from among the immigrants who are daily reaching the city. One of these. who has been in the city over a week. said: "It is 'al- most impossible to get a farm hand." The Dominion officials are simply be- sieged with applications from farmers. as many as seventy-five calling upon them daily. An Ontario farmer of thirty years’ standing. when asked about the labor supply said: “There doesn't seem to be a farm hand in Ontario. Thirty years ago, when we had to ‘dig out’ and find our own men. we had less difficulty than today. when the Government sends us help when it can. right to our door, and without cost to us." Mr. H. Burgoyne, who supplies large numbers of laborers to the railroad construction companies, said: “I have already instructions to get seven hundred men for construc- tion work in Ontario alone on the C.’P.R. new line to Peterboro’ and the C.N.R. through Trenton to Ottawa. It will be a record year for unskilled labor, and Ontario will need a lot more help before the year is out." The 1a.- bor bureaus are busy as bee-hives, fresh settlers pouring in all day, wait- ing for a few hours, then being en- gaged, and departing for their various ’ jobs. â€".¢. ., .__â€"_.- “-- r‘m * tw-n‘rx‘lW‘ - '* cubs weighing less than 19 lbs.

In ten years pine has trebled in price, elm quad- rupled. and cedar more than doubled. Such timbers as walnut and hickory are becoming almost unknown. The Ontario Legislature has given some considerable attention to the forestry problem, and a very interest- ing bill was passed at the. recent ses- I 81011. It states that: The municipal council of a county may pass by- laws:â€"â€" (3) For acquiring by purchase. lrf-ase or otherwise such lands designated in the by-law as the council 2.63;; deem ' suitable for reforestration purposes; , lb) For planting land s,» acquired and for preserving and protectin" c the timber thereon; (cl For the ll",anagr::ncu‘ of Sll‘ll lands and the sale or other disposal of the timber grown tlzt-rconz Idl For the issuing of from time to time for the providing for the lands to an dabvnfurcs purpos- of h purchase of 51'" amount no' exceeding $25,0u0 in any one year.

AN ALPINE DRAMA ,mwavv scrib- 'v- -~--'l- yr; 2 I , A pathetic little Alpine drama is? reported from the village of Fernez. in ‘the Canton of Grisons, where a nine- . year-old girl. named Grouter, lost her l life to save that, of her little Chamois. At Christmas the Greuter family re- lceived a present of a baby Chamois. land the animal was brought up and cared for by their only daughter. Two days ago the chamois escaped, and was followed by the young girl across the valley. As the girl did not return. her par- ' ents and some friends organized a search. They first found the dead I body of the Chamois at the bottom of a precipice. and halfâ€"way down. the mangled body of the girl. She had apparently seen her pet fall over the precipice and tried to climb down after it. PRECIOUS KEEPSAKE Clorinda:-â€"“You can't keep a dog In your new flat?"
