Canada's own big pmblem is that of a country which has imported muchâ€"and sud- denly finds those Importations cut 01!. You will get at the milk in' the cocoenut at once by glancing at the following lists war. th Mother C the issue f List No. 1 Some of the things we have been importing from Germany, Austria, etc., to the value of $38,000,000 per annum: to their Analine dyes, baskets, books, boots, buttons, brooms, brushes, can- ned goods , chemicals, chinaware. clocks, clothing, collars and cuts, cot- ton' goods, combs, curtains, colors and dye stuffs, cutlery, dolls, drugs. earthenware, embroideries, electric apparatus, feathers, furs, fringe and tassels, gloves and mitts, glass and glassware, guns, hats, hosiery, hops, jewelry, knitted goods, leather goods, lace, labels, locomotive tires, machin- ery, millinery, mineral waters, musi- cal instruments, optical instruments, paints and colors, papers, pencils. per- fumes, pianos. pharmaceutical prepar- ations, piano parts, piano key ivories, pipes, purses, ribbons, rubber goods, seeds, shoes, laces, silk knitted and other goods, silverware, soaps, spirits. stockings and socks, time recorders, tobacco, toilet articles, tools, toys. underwear, woodenware, woollen goods, watches. List No. 2 Some of the things mentioned in List No. 1 that we now make in Can- ada in competition with the manufac. tug-91's of Continental Europe: Baskets, .boots, books, buttons,l brooms, brushes, canned goods, car- pets, chemicals, collars ~and cuffs. cotton goods, clothing, combs, colors and dye stuffs, cutlery, dolls, drugs, earthenware, electric apparatus, : feathers, furs, glass and glassware,‘ gloves and mitts, guns, hats, hosiery, jewelry, knitted goods, lamps leather goods, labels, machinery, millinery, mineral waters, musical instruments, optical instruments, paints and colors, paper, perfumes. pipes, pharmaceuti- cal preparations, pianos, piano parts, purses, ribbons, rubber goods, seeds. silverware, silk knitted goods, soaps. spirits, stockings and socks, time re- corders, toilet. articles, tools. under- wear, woodenware, woollen goods. A Great Advantage The Canadian manufacturers of the articles in List No. 2 have now an advantage greater, than any tariff wall. The competition of Continental Europe has been withdrawn and will remain withdrawn until the war 19 over at least. Let the Canadian manufacturers make the most of the situation.

Miss Murywenther stood at a window in her an home and won- dered why the wnrld deters its annuai hegira to the country till July, leaving out the most delightful month in the year for an outing. There was before her nothing but nrir-k and stone houses, while from the street neluw vzune a confused clatter 01 nurses‘ honfs on the stones. trnlley gang's, auto hunks and other such city nuises. “I'm going to get into the country if 1 baVe to go by trolley." said Miss Marywenther. "After all, wouldn’t a trolley ride be nice this beautiful morn- g': It certainly would. and that's what I’m going to do." And Miss Marywenther straightway got down some maps giving the environs of the city and marked out a route. “I’ll go from here to Arlington. that’s four miles; get a transfer to Bammondville, that’s twelve miles in all, and from Bammondville back home. 1 can get back to luncheon if 1 wish to, or 1 can go farther." Not long after this soliloquy Miss Maryweather stood on the front stoop putting on a pair of white silk gloves and waiting for a trolley car. When the right one came along she boarded it. There was no vacant seat, but a hand- some young man in a new spring suit gave her his seat. with a profound how. which was interrupted by the starting of the car and threw him on to her lap. He apologized and thence- forth became a strap hanger till the car reached the crossing of the trolley line with another at Arlington. There Miss Maryweather alighted and took an open car on the other line. It so happened that the young man who had given up his seat was going in the same direction. At any rate he boarded the same car, taking a seat in the rear where he could smoke. Miss Maryweather did not see him get on and did not know he was there. When the car reached Hammondville. which was little more than a trolley crossing, she was told that the cars ran at fif- teen minutes‘ interval and one had just passed. So she concluded to walk and let the next car overtake her. She had not gone far when she came to an attractive country place. The grounds were very highly cultivated. and there was a garden in which Miss Maryweather could see flowers of all kinds nodding under‘ a light breeze in the sunlight. “I’d give anything to go into that garden.” she said. “I wonder what kind of persons they are in there -â€"whether they are so selfish as to wish to keep.their flowers for themselves or whether they would like to have others enjoy them too.” Corning to the gateway, she saw a man cutting the grass and asked if there would be any objection to her go- lng into the garden provided she didn’t take any of the flowers. “I think not. miss." was the reply, “since you’re alone. Couples sometimes come in here to spark, and Mr. Summers doesn’t like that; but he hasn’t any ob- jection to other persons enjoying his grounds." Thus encouraged, Miss Maryweather entered the grounds and proceeded to the flower garden. There she regaled herself with her beautiful surround- ings. wishing she miaht take even a sin gle rose. but refrainiua She had been there only a short time when she saw a man coming in through a rear gate. 'What was her surprise to see. when he came near her. the gentleman who had given her his seat in the trolley car. What a singular coincidence that this beautiful place should be his home. “Beg pardon.” she said. “The gar- den looked so attractive from the road that I couldn’t help coming into it. But I asked the gardener if there would be any objection. and he said he didn’t think there would.” Now. this young man. Bob Shackel- ford. having been born rich and having nothing to do. was always searching for an adventure. He had been struck with Miss Maryweather’s appearance when he had seen her get on the trol- ley car and, without any definite purâ€" pose. felt inclined to keep her in sight for awhile. He had therefore taken the same car as she to Hammondville. but when she walked on from there he had waited for a car to take him back to the city. When she stood looking into the grounds he passed on the car. Alighting. he saw her talking with the gardener and then enter. Naturally he inferred that she was not at home. The idea occurred to him to go around to the back gate. enter the place and per- sonate its owner. Only a man of con- siderable assurance and confidence in his resource would have dared do such “)‘ou are quite welcome, I assure you.” said the young man. “1 am very proud of my flowers. and nothing pleases me so much as to have others enjoy them." “That is very nice of you. 1 don't wonder that you object to couples making use of your grounds. The gar- dener told me about that. He said since I was alone there would be no objection to my coming in.” “Did the gardener say that?" asked the young man. pricking up his ears. “Yes. and I don’t blame you for (eating as you do about 1t.’_’ 7 "1H “Did [)9 9:1,!“ I objw‘N-‘fl .‘n mnrfimI"--‘ 'l‘bv semvm‘v \\::.- u”! :iu..~am:. for at that muuwm :I dun: u!

"and have nu mun, :‘ia‘m here than you have But dunl be troubled. I'll make up a Slur}, um! :11! um need do XS to 35890! In anything.- I say." Miss Marym-zmwr was “5‘ 00 (119305 pleased by this :n'uwzn. She hit. her lip. but said uuthin: The young man might stand in the breath. When the owner value up he said: "Beg pardon. 511'. but these grounds are not open to the public." "So the guruleuer Iuid us. but he said further that you objected to your gruunds being overrun by young cou pies who come here"-â€"- , "He spoke correctly,“ interrupted the other. "I am quite willing that guy other class should enjoy ‘my grounds. Are you a married (-ouple?" “Certainly,“ said Mr. Shackelford. Perhaps there was something in Miss Maryweuther’s reception of this statement that excited the owner’s suspicion. “Do you vouch for the gentleman’s statement?" he asked, looking at her searchingly. Miss MaryWeather looked at her companion and saw an appeal there that she would do her part to relieve them from the embarrassing position they were in. She yielded with a faint “Yes." A change at once came over the owner’s treatment of them. He pluck ed a number of roses and handed them to Miss Maryweather and bestowed a boutonnlere on her companion. Then when they had thanked him for his kindness they departed in company. As they passed out of the front gate Miss Maryweather was naturally in no good humor. But she maintained silence. “I’m very sorry." said Bob. “to have put you in a false position.” “Why did you come in there?” “I’m obliged to confess." he said. much rattled. “that i wasâ€"was very much attracted by yourâ€"your appear- ance and“â€" He broke down at this point and got no further. “Leave me.” said Miss Maryweather. “I have no acquaintance with you." “Not till you have forgiven me." “Forgive you: Suppose we meet the owner of the place again, what kind or a position will we be in? You told him we were married. and l was forced to confirm what you said." The remark put a new idea into Mr Shackelford’s head. He had acknowl- edged her as his wife, and she had ac- knowledged him as her husband before a witness._ They were married. “By Jove!” be exclaimed “Well, What now ?" “Did you ever hear or a Scotch mar- riage?” “A Scotch marriage is one where a man and a woman acknowledge each other as husband or wife in presence of a Witness." ‘ “Oh, my goodness gracious!” “But don’t concern yourself. Such a marriage will not hold in America. At least I don’t think it would." “You don't think it would? Do you mean to tell me that there is a proba- bility that we are married?” “Not a probability, only a possibility. I’ll see my lawyer about it as soon as I return to the city and let you know.” A trolley gong sounded in the dis- tance, and when the car came along Miss Maryweather got aboard. Mr. Shackelford got on, too. and there was a continued quarrel between them, he defending himself as best he could from her attacks. When Miss Mary- Weather alighted Mr. Shackelt’ord handed her his card and said he would call with his. lawyer‘s opinion as to whether or no they were bride and groom, to which she deizrned no reply. By this time Mr. Shackeltord, whose tastes were all for bachelorhood. began to see that he had been caught in his own trap. He remained away from the lady till she wrote him a note to say that she had confided the matter 01 their marriage to a lawyer friend. who had told her that there need be no trouble about it provided neither was disposed to make trouble for the other by claiming that it was a real mar- riage. She hoped Mr. Shackelford would never do that. This brought him to see her, and again under her influ- ence. He never escaped from it. Miss Maryweather held on to the card and made inquiries as to the man it represented. She learned that he was rich, prominent serially. a member 01 the best clubs and considered by his friends a very good follow. Miss Mary- weather was in moderate circum stances and not in the.social swim. From being very angr‘y with Mr. Shackelford .she began to think that it would be very nice to be his wife. He called the next day to say that his at- torney was of opinion that a marriage to be good in law must be intentional. Theirs had not been intentional, there fore was not valid Miss Maryweather tried to appear re- lieved. She apologized for‘ her harsh treatment of Mr. Shackelford and hoped he would forget and forgive it. In- deed. she was so amiable that Mr. Shackelford was very much pleased with her. He went straight from he! to a flower shop, where he ordered a big box of flowers to be sent her. This. of course. necessitated a note of thanks, in which the lady said that she would like to see the donor about their sup posed marriage and from that time for- ward kept speaking of it as such till Mr. Shackelford began to wish it was a real marriage. Finally Miss Mary- weather admitted to him that she had felt there was a singular bond between them ever since he had “so adroitly re- lieved her from a very embarrassing position.” Uxbridge raised $500 for the 'patriotic fund in a_ tag day: Cobourg’s new. felt factory has begun operations.
