Gr This tariff, they pointed out, would equal the existing tariff-of 15 cents a "pound oni all. advertisements entering the country under any other guise than publications. The present tariff is also subject to a 2% cent ad valor- "em service tax:.. The proposed: tariff ~ would, the delegation claimed, equal the percentage of advertising matter carried in incoming publications. Figures produced by the delegation indicated that an average of 40,000, 000 copies of United States magazines entered Canada yearly and approxi- 'mately 15,000,000, copies of United | ; 'week-end newspapers. If taxed as suggested the revenue tothe Gov- ernment would approximate $5,000,000 yearly on the present circulation of imported publications. ; oi - The Canadian publishing trade was also suffering from outside competi-, tion, the delegation pointed out, by be- ing 'subjected to heavy taxation on! both material and general business. Tt was 'suggested that the proposed tariff would assist in checking the influx of 'obnoxious foreign publica- * tions. ?

A despatch from Paris saysi-- After a day and night of terror, hair- breadth escapes from the Druses, and fighting, the eight survivors of a com. pany of French and Sengalese sharp- shooters have been picked up by a rescue column: ; ] The company was trapped on the heights of Nedcha; the day before yes- terday, and after hours. of fighting attempted to escape during the night. Dragging: their wounded, they struck out across country. But having only just landed in Syria they lost their way and wandered into a strong force of Druses.

As soon as the work was begun he went over the plans himself and made several radical changes. The Prince told the contractors that he would visit the place every few days, and ordered that he be informed of any changes made in the present plans. : He has asked his mother, Queen Mary, to select the decorations for his new residence, and this Her Majesty do, ta notices to be posted, a work Monday, A rane.

A quarter of a century ago, no_ one had heard:of a radio, submarines, war tanks, machine guns, airplanes and wireless telephones as articles of al most dally servive. The world then was doubting Marconi and the little group of Men who believed in radio, while ' experimenters with airplanes were tolerated as amusing "cranks." To-day, the roar of the mail planes dally is heard over the route 'of the old Pony Express, armies of the world fight in the alr,'and it is becoming the great' highway for peace-time travel and shipping. Important applications and changes have been made in old inventions. The reaper, for instance, was known near- ly a century ago, but only in the last twenty-five years has it been com- bined with the thresher.

Two of the most important of | the new mills are those of the St. | Regis Company at Cap Rouge and the | International Company on the Gat- ineau River near Ottawa, the latter [mill alone being designed for an out. | put of 450 tons daily. The Tnterna- | tional Company is also enlarging its Three Rivers plant by nearly 400 tons | daily and is expanding its sulphite | mill at Kipawa.
