It has been said that at some resorts all things were made ready for the visit of the inâ€" spector and neglected after his deâ€" parture. Therefore the inspectors will go to the various Summer reâ€" sorts unannounced this year. Dr. (George Clinton has already gone to the Kawartha and Stony Lake district and the chief inspector will make a tour at the height of the season of all the resorts. The reâ€" gulations governing steamships plyâ€" ing on the inland lakes will also be rigidly enforced. _ Such vessels are required to have tanks where in sewage can be treated with live steam from boilers.

The appeals received so far come from the Maple Creek district, which is usually dry land, and it is claimed that as a result of lack of rain the crops there will be very light. The request is thereâ€" fore made that the holders of homeâ€" steads bo allowed to take two months off in the Fall to engage in outside threshing and other labor, and that these two months be acâ€" cepted as part of the homestead duties.

FRENCH AVIATORS HAVE A NARROW ESCAPE FROM DEATH Remarkable Photograph of a Close Shave in the Air Seeured by a Paris Photographer, With only a few flying machines in the world and the whole ocean of air to fly in, one would think a colllsi'on of aeroplanes to be next to impossible. And yet more than one of such accidents have occurâ€" red, and the results were, of cour se, disastrous. _ Certainly there would seem to be less excuse for an encounter in the threeâ€"dimenâ€" sional space of the aeroplane‘s domain than in the twoâ€"dimensional planes of travel that land and sea vehicles must adhere to. The aerial pilot may leap over or dive under his> adversary ; and yet with no fixed lanes of travel it is evident that much confusion is liable to arise, particularly as as flying machines are very fast and there is no system of signalling between them. s Li aud h. d lt ArtivtsentWicis Unes: .i dats us u... AWeny OV t i. > cce At the recent aviation meet at Heliopolis, a collision between two meroplanes was so very narrowly averted as to send thrills of horror through the spectators. In this case the proximity of the aeroâ€" planes was due to the fact that they were rounding a pylon and were trying to hug the course as closely as possible. There were three aviators in the air, Guillaux, Chevillard, and Olivier. Sudâ€" denly Guillaux was seen to approach Chevillard, and it looked as though he would surely strike the right wing of Chevillard‘s biplane as it was banking for the turn. By the barest margin the monoâ€" plane cleared the biplane, and the two aviators continued their flight, undaunted by their ha}rrf)wing experience. EERgy ie ey . . Aneiin Ssn e PRepRLEC NN seR seb o c Msle s P c udn us By rare good fortuns one of the correspondents of Paris L‘Ilusâ€" tration happened to catch the two aeroplanes with his camera at the very moment when the collision seemed imminent. We reproâ€" duce above this remarkable photograph, by courtesy of I/‘lIllustraâ€" tion. It shows by what a small margin a serious accident was averted. It is the first photograph ever taken of an aerial encounâ€" ter. In the distarce may be seen the biplane of Olivier. PRIGES CF FARM PRODUGTS REPORTS FPLOM THE LEADINO TEADE CENTRES OP AMERICA.

The crops will proâ€" bably be light in the southwest part of Saskatchewan and in southâ€" ern Alberta, he believes, due to drought, but in the Regina district grain is already heading out, and an early as well as a record crop seems assured.

Just how the accident occurred probably will never be known. The deceased had taken the horse rake out and xas working it in a field not far from the house.

Reâ€" ferring to the protocal adjusted at Niagara Falls, the report states there is no need to express ratifiâ€" cation by the Senate. Ruiz maniâ€" fests the willingness of the Mexican Government to treat with the reâ€" volutionists for the restoration of the first time in Mexico expresses explicitly General Huerta‘s readiâ€" ness to resign the Presidency if thereby the Republic‘s political pacâ€" ifications can be attained.

Jt is curious to learn from these etatistios that the town child has markedly better teeth than the country one, and is much lees eubject to adenoide and enlarged tonsils. Eyesight is wonse in the country than in the town schools, but, in the latter, there is a larger prO portion of stammerere among the very young, whereas when the age of twolve is reached more country than town childâ€" ren stammer or lisp. Deafness is much more common in town than in country children, but the percentage of tubercuâ€" losis and rickets are about the same for both. One very etrange fact is that mental deficiency is found to be more common in the towns than in the counâ€" try, while the proportion of children sulâ€" fering from insufficient nutrition is verY much larger in the towns than in the villages.

A World of Constant Change. One of the epeakers at the commenceâ€" ment of an . Eastern college told the graduates that they were entering A world unlike anything in past history. In fact no ¢two ages or generations Of, in fact, years are alike. The world is alâ€" waye changing, and man changes 100. These changes are more radical in our age than in any preceding one because knowledge is more diffused, new needs have arieen, the masees are less content and more ambitious, old inetitutions aro now in their decadence and better condiâ€" tione are arising. But ours is a world of constant change. It is the natunal law of being. Only in this age the changes are more rapid and pronounced. 1t took about two hundred years to produce the French revolution and its changes.
