THE DURHAM CHRONICLE being held in the Public Library on College street and Will continue till the end of next week. It is the 300th anniversary of "the King James version, published in Eng- land in 1611. To’ most people, and particularly to Biblical students the exhibit will be p of much in- terest. A special from New York to the Toronto News says: The idle rich were criticised by Andrew Carneg- ie in an (address made to a throng of Working girls in a large pu"b- lishing house. He declared that men had no right’ to wealth not ac- quired by useful labor. His criti- cism came in the course of some matrimonial advice which he gave to the girls. “Don’t refuse a man simply be- cause he is a millionaire,” said Mr. Carnegie, “I would rather be born peer than a millionaire, and I have had experience in both dir» ections. I have made i-orty-twd or forty-three millions in my time. but I want to say the only righf a man has to wealth is in acquiring it in some useful labor. The trou- ble of wealth toâ€"da'y is that sons of rich men do not realize this necesâ€" sity of being 'Oaf use to the com- munity.” FARM VALUES AND WAGES The Census Monthly for January says that values and wages in Canada make a good record for 1910.

The meeting is TORONTO THE GOOD. ‘Rev. Chancellor Burnwash says the Bible is now read in Canada in 109 diflferent languages, and in the city of Toronto alone in 90 tongues. This information was given in an interview concerning the' Bible ex- hibit, now being held in the city under the auspices of the Upper Canada Bible Society.
