The Council felt that §t could 'bardly resolve itself into a committee for collecting funds, and so the Loid ayor summoned a mu eiing of those terested.

Most of those present seemed of opinion that it would be impossible to come to a definite conclusion, until it was known how much money would 'be availabla Then the coat could be out to suit the cloth. London's Most Beautiful Monuments. + Anthony Hope Hawkins voiced the opinion of 8 number who dissented from this view. He represented artistic point of view as opposed to t Guilitarian. He was not in favor of dk verting & pound from the main pur pose, which he conceived to be the epection of a lteral monument, not a museum, 8 hospital. or a lecture hall Beauty should be the first end served. After the most beautiful monument in London had been erected, the surplus cash, if they was any, might be used $0 build a hospital. 4 No National Theatre Needed. Lord Avebury thought that the orig inal fe, a Bhakespearean le which should do for literature Burlington House had done for "@elence, was the best advanced. It was greed, however, that more time should be granted for a full expression of pub- pin con the subject.

But the immigrant is not out of the building when he passed the doctors.

At St. John, Quebes, and Montreal there arrangements are repeated 8s nearly as the ciroumstances will per der the direct control of the ern ment. Previously the work of caring for sick immigrants was done by con- tract, but this year the Government either owns or rents alt the hospitals and manages them itself. This is easy enough to say, renting of bufldings, and the battling | ality. He Watches the Border Also. But he has to be alert, the long border line between Canada and the United States, and particular ly the Pacific coast ports Besides watching undesirables who desire to slip in coming from white countries, there is the big Asiatic stream coming In by way of Vancouver. The Japan- scarcely any new Chinese arrivals are registered at the rate of $500 per head still there Is a large return of China- men who have lived In Canada before and who have been to China on a visit. These, with the Chinese passing through Canada on their way to the | British West Indles, make Canada's western gateway one of increasing im- portance. Besidés these things, is the medical eare of Canada's 125, 000 Indians, but when problems crowd upon him for solution, Dr. Bryce gives a twist to the indomitable Kitchener moustache, and buckles down to his work as he did when he fought small pox, tuberculosis, and kindred terrors in Ontario. A Forgotten Custom. old Lenten custom, was to make a now defunct, "Jack o' An or nearly so, Lent"~l.e., fashioned out of a suit clothes stuffed with straw, of cast-off to be car- and afterwards burnt.

What is sald to have proved an ef- fective smoke consumer has been tried in London.
