It is \‘PI‘F' interesting to observe the manntr in Which the subscriptions receivei for the relief of Belgian and French populations of the i'l Vaded departments are employed. The subscribers of “Pro Belgica" are not only acquainted. with mi that happens in Belgium, they also contribute to the revictualling oi this unfortunate country, for 311 receipts of the paper are paid into the receiving office of the “Re- lief Work.” The amount of the subscription is but one dollar, which can be sent to the manage- ment of the paper; 149 St. Luke, Montreal.

The tax bills have been in the hands of the ratepayers for a week or so, and no complaints have been made of them being too low. The rate is 37 mills on the dollar, and as the assessment is pretty well up to the cash value of the property, the tax bills will be quite a burden. Many thought the rate would have been struck at 40 mills, but the council have seen fit to put it at 37. W'e hope the levy is sufficient to take care of all demands. In addition to the grin- eral rate, the local improvement tax for sidewalks will “be ad-zlc-d.
