We teach the " Gregg " System of
Shorthand because we know it is the
best.
It is written in one straight line
and based on the modement required
to write ordinary longhand. It re-
quires no shadings, back slants or
vertical strokes which are " hard to
remember and require "slackening
up " to make correctly.
The Gregg is thus easier to learn,
write and read. A speedy, accurate
stenographer is the result.
The Principal of our Shorthand
School graduated under the author,
of the " Gregg " system, and her two.
assistants are graduates of the Busi-
ness Educators' Association. You
are assured of the very best tuition
here.
More information in our large
()illustrated catalogue, whicli we would
like to mail you free. First lesson
on Gregg sent free on application.

ates than we can supply.

A CHRIST]Y[AS I'IESS A GE
An Opportunity to Carry Gladness to the
Suffering and Needy .
Toronto, Can., Dec. 11th, 1907
Dear Friend :-
A Christmas message, "Peace on Earth : Good Will to Mon," was
sent to this old world long ago to bring gladness.
Was this poor fellow included? •
The Place. Not Africa or Pagan India, but Christian Canada.
The Persons. A son pleading for his father. Father, with one arm
(the other lost in railway service), stands with tears streaming down his
cheeks as he tells his story in thedoctor's office, Muskoka Hospital:
"I have been a railway conductor. I have been turned out
of my boarding-house, where I lived for seventeen years,
because I had consumption. Then I had to leave the hotel
for the same reason. The hospital of my town refused me.
I have travelled for two days to reach here. For God's sake, .
doctorf let me stay. I have got money to pay for. all I want."
If this was the story of a poor fellow with money, what about the
hundreds who are seeking admission to the Muskoka Free Hospital for
Consumptives, with their money all gone in the struggle with this dread
disease ?
The Muskoka Free Hospital for Consumptives has never refused a
patient because of his or her poverty.
It now cares for seventy-five patients. It would care tor three
hundred if the needed money was forthcoming.
It has no endowment, except in the kind hearts and the generous
gifts of the people of Canada. v
Itis Excellency Earl Grey has shown his interest and sympathy in
this great work for the needy consumptives by accepting the position of
Honorary President of the National Sanitarium Association.
Your golden dollars may be the Angels of Mercy this Christmas to
/bring the glad tidings of Good Will and Returning Health to some poor
fellow seeking admission into his only refuge, the Muskoka Free Hospital
for Consumptives.
.A. last word --will you help to care for these whom others do not
want?
Faithfully lours,
SW.

TODAY AND TOMORROW.
(Gerald Massey,],
A great poet, Gerald Massey, died in
England the other day, aged 87, Reared
in poverty, he educated himself while
working at his trade, and wrote some of
the finest poems in the language. His
fame was at its height in the middle of
the last century. "Today and tomor-
row" is one of his masterpieces.
High hopes that burn'd like stars sublime
Go down i' the heavens of freedom;
And true hearts perish in the time
We bitterliest need 'em!
But never sit we down and say
There's nothing left but sorrow;
We walk the wilderness today,
The promised land tomorrow!
Our birds of song are silent now,
There are no flowers blooming,
Yet life holds in the frozen bough,
And freedom's spring is coming;
And freedom's tide comes alway,
Though we may strand in sorrow;
And onr good bark, aground today,
Shall float again tomorrow.
Through all the long, long night of
• years.
The people's cry asoendeth,
And earth is wet with blood and tears;
But onr meek sufferance endeth!
The few'shall now forever sway -
The many moil in sorrow;
The powers of hell are strong today,
But Christ shall rise tomorrow !
Though hearts brood over the past, onr
eyes
With smiling futures glisten!
For lo! our day bursts up the skies -
Lean on your souls and listen!
The world rolls freedom's radiant way,
And ripens with her sorrow;
Keep heart! Who bear the Cross today,
Shall wear the Crown tomorrow!
0 youth! flame, earnest, still aspire
With energies immortal! G
To many a heaven of desire
Our yearning open a portal.
And though age wearies by the way,
And hearts break in the furrow,
We'll sow the golden grain today,
The harvest reap tomorrow.
Build up heroio lives and all
Be like a sheathen saber,
Ready to flash out at God's oall-
O chivalry of labor!
Triumph and toil are twins; and aye
Joy sons the cloud of sorrow,
And 'tie the martyrdom today
Brings victorytomorrow.
MAKES LIFE MISERABLE
Troubles That Keep Half the
Wingham Doctors Busy.
Half of the prescriptions that the
Wingham doctors write are for troubles
that result directly from a weakened
stomach. Strengthen the stomach
muscles', increase the secretion of gastric
jnicea, and yon will find that common
efHictions-indigestion, with its head•
aches, dizziness, depression of spirits,
!pots before the eyes, nervousness,
sleeplessness and general debility -have
been overcome.
From now on build up the strength
and health of the stomaoh with Mi•o•na
tablets. Yon will soon find yourself
strong and never know the meaning of
indigestion.
If Mi.o•oft did not hare an unusually
curative effect in stomach disorders, it
could not be sold on the guarantee given
by Walton McKibben to refund the
money unless it does all that is claimed
for it. He gives an absolute, nngnali•
fled gnarantee with every 50.oent box of
M1.o•na that the money will be refunded
unless the medicine cares. Walton
McKibbon takes the whole risk, and
you certainly oan afford to get Mi.o na
from him on this plan,
The ennshine of life is made np of very
little beams that aro bright all the time.
In the nursery, on the playground and
in the school room, there is room all the
time for little acti of kindness that cost
nothing but are worth more than gold
or. silver. To give tip something when
giving lap will prevent unhappiness; to
yield when perefeting will chafe and fret
others; to go a little way around rather
than come against another; to take an
i11 Word or cross look rather than to
relent it; these ars the ways in which
clouds and storms are kept off and a
pleasant, smiling sunshine ceodred even

CAPITAL NOT NECESSARY.
Too much is said about capital, and
the young man is misled thereby, He
is told that, in these days of big affairs,
one cannot engage In any bnsinese with.
ont a portly bank account, If it is only
the roasted -peanut industry one must
be provided with funds for plant, quick
assets and reserve.
But the fact is very plain, says The
Post, of Philadelphia, that the biggest
and moat flourishing industries require
no capital whatever. For example, the
hearing in New York disclosed that, in
eight years, net profits of the Standard
Oil Company were five hundred per
cent. of its capital. At any moment, by
a little simple flnanoiering, the stook•
holders might have withdrawn their en•
tiro investment without in the least im-
pairing the effoienoy or earning power
of the company. In two years they did,
indeed, withdraw their whole invest-
ment in the form of dividends. In the
eight years they withdrew their invest-
ment three times over. One of the sub
companies earned a thousand per cent
of its 'capital in a single year. If some
good, frugal young man without capital
had oome•into poesession of that com-
pany he could have paid off the entira
investment in a little more than a
month. At the end of the year he
would have had a surplus of nine mil.
lion dollars.
The tobacco trust and the steel trust
are further shining exam' lea of the ab-
solute superfluity of capital. Eaoh
could pay back out of profits within a
short time all the original investment of
capital. The stdel trust is physically
reconstracting itself out of only a moiety
of ite net earning. The tobacco trust
returns to its original stockholders yearly
moray moner than they ever put into the
business. Capital is not ncoessary in
the express and telegraph businesses
Give any thrifty and intelligent, but
penniless, youth the monopoly which
they enjoy, and whatever capital was
called for would speedily create itself.
Too much is said about capital. What
the yoaog man should aim at is a sang
monopoly. Raving that, the merely in-
cidental matter of capital will take care
of itself while he sleeps.
The Farmer and Future.
Brandon San: If one may judge from
the recent meeting of the Dominion
Grange in Toronto, the influence of
the farmer is a thing that will have
to be counted on in the future more
than it has been in the past. There
oan be little doubt that the ngri. ultur-
al part of the community has hereto-
fore lacked effeotiva organization, and
has been too ranch at the mercy of
other interests which have been so-
onstomed to look with too little regard
to any protest that might be made by
the farmer. Our country is essen-
tially an agricultural one; onr vast
stretches of fertile regions are bound
to give tie n high place among the
food -producing couutries of the world,
and it se ' only /reasonable to suppose
that in the working out of our des
tiny the agrieulturiet, should have a
groat deal to say.
Organic ttion in the ea"9'e of the far-
mer ie niore diffioult than in the case o!
any other section of the community.
The rural population is comparatively
sparse and the farmer is by instinct
and training little disposed to enter
nth the stirring questions of the day.
He is inoiined to keep the even tenor
of his way and let others fight the bat.
ties of the politicians. It he bestirs
himself and asserts his rights he will
