The late Dr. Henry Martyn Fieli •ome years ago related at a Williams alumni dinner a rather amusing inci­ dent of his freshman days at college. Being only 12 years old when he entered^ he had not reached the point where the natural friction between the big boy and the small boy ceases and lie was at particular feud with one oi His fellows, a stalwart country youth fresh from the farm. One day young Held went early to the classroom and put upon the big blockboard a very exasperating caricature of his en­ emy, with his name beneath. When the aggrieved party saw what had been done he said not a word; but catching up his youthful tormentor, he used him as an eraser and after rub­ bing out the offensive picture quietly took his seat. ______ A Big Bargain for 12 Cents Postpaid.

Hant memory is a problem for the Inquisitive botanist, says the Dundee Advertiser. In 1901 a plant allied to the. squash and pumpkin was taken to New York from the desert of Sonora, in Mexico, and since then it has been kept--without watering--in a strange climate 3,600 miles from home. Dur­ ing the six Weeks of tain in the des­ ert the plant grows its leaves and flowers and perfects its seed. Then tt dries up and leaves only a water- filled gourd, which a thick, hard shell seals against animals and evaporation. The transplanted specimen still re­ members the rainy season of six weeks. It wakes, Bends out rootlets, stems and leaves, and then dries up again until the following year. Irrigated Lands.

Sergt. J. E. Williams was asked by a Kansas City Star re­ porter. "Mighty shaky," the sergeant said. "And I was in charge of a squad of men, too. My first engagement was in 1899 in the Philippine islands. I was a corporal then. I belonged to Battery 0 of the Sixth artillery. We had been in the islands two days and were sta­ tioned in Luzon. My squad--seven men and myself--were sent out kto do post duty. We started early in the morning and about five o'clock in the evening arrived at our post, a lonely place, overgrown with tropical vegeta­ tion and generally depressing. "We camped and--waited. A little after dark I saw a flash from a clump of dark vegetation about a thousand yards away. At the same time I h^ard a bullet whing over my head. I never Was scared so badly before. It seemed that that bullet went right through me. The men were waiting for orders. 1 tried to give them, but the only re­ sult was an inarticulate gurgle. • "There I stood, with seven men waiting for orders. My kneejB were shaking and I felt that every hair on my head was standing on end. Then several more flashes came and one of my men fell, wounded by one of the bullets. "Well, sir, that made me mad. I started to cussing. I swore at every one, the natives, the Philippines, my soldiers. When that man fell all my fear left me." The Immigration During « - 216,000. White It well to heed errery word of caution from the leaders La commerce and finance and to afraid all speculative ventures that lack * solid business foundation, it is clearly evident that there is no conspicuous weak spot in Canada's present era of prosperity. The Toronto Globe says: "The Dominion has in a commercial sense plenty of money, and our lead­ ing financial institutions are in a po­ sition to lend freely In the United States. The chief productive enter­ prises of Canada are not buoyed up by an era of dangerous speculation, but are following substantial busi­ ness methods and finding safe and continuous markets for their goods. We are not bolstering up any indus­ tries by extensive export bonuses that must impoverish the people as a whole, and ultimately lead to col­ lapse through the failure of the arti­ ficial aid. , There is no extreme pro­ tection in Canada such as would cre­ ate great fortunes for a few at the expense of the general public and lead to disruption and catastrophe. The prosperity of Canada has no ar­ tificial foundation being based on a healthy and substantial expansion of trade arid industry, with a proportion­ ate extension of productive settlement to new areas. It is true that we are borrowing extensively for railway construction, but every line will bring, new terri­ tory within the limits of profitable occupation, and will create prosper­ ous settlements to bear the burdens and repay the outlay. We are not exhausting mineral resources, for it is quite reasonable to assume that, although mineral 'wealth is never permanent, ours will during the measurable future develop a far greater productive capacity than at present. Our timber wealth can be made continuous by a judicious pol­ icy. And agriculture, the real foun­ dation of our prosperity, is expanding with every new expenditure on rail­ way construction. We are not in the flush of a railway mania that could bring its punishment through the useless duplication of lines. The gigantic railway enterprises that now stimulate every line of business In Canada will create a new Domin­ ion, and thus render easy the heavy burdens of debt now freely assumed. Canada's era of prosperity has been unprecedented, but there is no sign of weakness and no cause for lack of confidence. While our growth is normal and healthy, we need have no alarm at its rapidity." This article might have gone on to relate the great growth that is taking place in Central Canada, where thousands of Americans have made their homes during the past few years. The pa^t calendar year has given to Canada by Importation an addition of 216,000 to its population. Of this the United States contributed 63,781.

"I consulted the doctors who told me that I was suffering from neural­ gia.
