IMPORTANT CHANGE.
The Stup'd Man Needs a Clever
Wife.
That a stupid man needs a clever wife
needs no discission, says William T.
Stead, in the Jaly DELINEATOa. The
stupider a man is., the olevere! ought
his wife to be, to meta up for the
stupidity of the male partner in the men-
s,; e A clever men can batter aff 3rd to
face the straggle for existence with a
stupid wife than ma a stupid man.
That is finite obvious. For, it clever-
ness may be regarded as the intellectual
stock in trade wtth whioh the married
couple start out to do batiaeae in the
world, the less oapital that either part.
nor has, the more important it is that
the o'her ebould be wall provided with
the indispensable element necessary for
800000s in life. There is, therefore,
some reason for recommending that
stupid man shoull merry clever woman
and that stupid women should marry
clever men, in order to make things
even all round. Oa the other hand,
the precept, "Be ye not nnegaally yoked
together with unbelievers," may to
held to lay down to a general prinoip:e
capable of being applied to the question
now nnder dieouseion. It is obviously
desirable that two people who are to
live together all their lives should be
suffl3iently ndlir together in intellectual
attainment to have interests in common,
and to be able to understand each other
when they are left together in the end-
less tete-+•tete of matrimony.

In Rates and Service to the Canadian
North West.
The Passenger Department of the
Grand Trunk Railway system have just
made an important announcement that
will be of great interest in connection
with the movement of passengers from
Eastern to Western Canada. While
first class fares are the same at the pres-
ent time via the Grand Trunk Railway's
Line to Chicago, and its connections be-
youd to points in the Canadian North-
west, the second class fares for many
years via Chicago have been higher than
by the route north of Lake Superior.
Commencing Jane 14th, the Agents of
the Grand Trunk in Ontario and Q,ae-
ben, and connecting lines, will be able
to issue seoond class tiokets from East-
ern to Western Canada at the lowest
current fares by any route. Naturally
a large proportion of the passenger trate
fio referred to is made up of settlers and
others who prefer to use second class
tickets, the saving between the prioe of
the first and second class tiokets being
considerable, and the accommodation
for passengers with seoond olass tickets
having steadily improved.
As the Grand Trunk Beltway have a
doable track to Chicago from Montreal,
Toronto, Hamilton, Brantford, Wood-
stock, Ingersoll, London and other prin-
cipel stations in Quebec and Ontario. it
is Expected that many passengers will
prefer to travel by way of Chicago. In
addition to this advantage, the Grand
Trunk will connect at Chicago and offer
the choice of seven lines between Chi-
cago, St Paul and Minneapolis; north
of St. Yana and Minneapolis, a oholoe of
three lines will be available. Many
Canadians have friends and relatives re-
siding at Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis
d other large American Cities passed
Some Election Figures.
A comparison of the vote cast in the
Provincial election in 1905 and the
vote oast in 1908 in the three Hurons
will be of interest. As we. stated
last week, the vote was a muoh
lighter one this year than in 1905,
their being a total of 1.414 less votes
cast in the three ridings in 190i than
there were in the elections of 1905 Or,
these a degrease -4f 709 comes cat of
the Liberal column, and 645 out of the
Conservative column. Taken by rid-
ings, the reduction is as followe: Centre
Huron—Total decrease, 791; Liberals
534, Conservatives 257. South Huron—
Total decrease, 443: Liberals 161, Con-
servatives 282. 1 orth Huron—Total
decrease, 180; Liberals. 74, Conserva-
tives 106. In Centre Huron there was
a decrease in the vote in every muni-
cipality, the largest deorease being in
Grey townsnip, where tae vote was 240
leas than in 1905. South Hatton shows
a deorease in every municipality exoept
Hensen. There exactly the same nam-
ber voted at nets election as did in 1905,
and in this connection there is a peculiar
co -incidence. In 1905 the vote stood,
Liberals, 102; Conservatives, 94; in
19C8 the figures were exactly revere td,
being Liberals 94, Conservatives 102
In North Huron the vote • showed the
least decrease of any of the three. In
Wingham 21 votes more were cast this
election than in 1905. Blyth showed a
decrease of but two votes, altheugh a
Liberal majority of 21 was turned into
a Conservative majority of three. In
Turnberry only one lees voted than in
1905, but here a Conservative majority
of 84 was converted into a Liberal
majority of 15.—Seaforth Expositor.
KEEPS ROYAL. WAROROB�.
King Edward's Chief Valet Has Many
intricate Duties.
Mi. Chandler, officially designate&
the Superintendent of the Royal.
Wardrobe, is King Edward's chief
valet and private accountant.
In the former capacity, he attends
to the man;' intricate duties of looking
after a wardrobe containing 411 uni-
forms, and in the latter he seruti
nines and checks all the King's pri-
vate accou'its for such articles as
clothes, boots, cigars, plate and jew-
elry purchased by His Majesty for
wedding presents, and like gifts, and
theatre tickets, and other sundry bills
which are not paid by the Keeper of
the Privy Purse.
When he buys such articles as
clothes or jewelry, His Majesty never
inquires their price. They are simply;
ordered, and the accounts for them
are sent to the Keeper of the Privy,
Purse, who hands them to the Super-
intendent of the Wardrobe. It is King
Edward's wish to pay a fair and rea-
sonable price for everything he buys
in this way, and it is Mr. Ohandlerhe
business to see that the price charged
is reasonable, and not extortionate, as
is sometimes the case. When an ex-
tortionate, charge is made, the account
is simply sent back to the tradesman,
with a request to send in the account
again. Of course, the tradesman can.

patronage of his Sovereign, and most
likely of all other members of the
Royal Family whose names he may,
have on his books, and this might
mean a serious monetary loss, apart
from the loss of prestige.
When the accounts have all been
checked and carefully scrutinized by,
the Superintendent of the Wardrobe,
they are submitted to the Knig, and
are then promptly discharged.
Of course, many accounts that pass
through Mr. Chandler's hands are for
articles for which a fixed charge is
made— such as for theatre tickets,
newspapers, periodicals, and boolts.
These accounts are settled at regulaI'
quarterly intervals.
In his capacity of supervisor of the
royal wardrobe, Mr. Chandler has
many complicated duties to attend to.
Before the King dons a uniform, it is
puts on a dummy figure by Mr. Chan-
dler's assistants, and is then carefully
inspected by the Superintendent of the
Wardrobe, who has to see that every
buckle, band, stray and ribbon are all
in their right places—a piece of work
that requires a most accurate and
complete .knowledge of a highly intri-
cate subjhct to be performed efficient-
ly and correctly.
In addition, the Superintendent of
the Wardrobe has to know how to
place correctly every order worn by
the King. In his knowledge on this
subject Mr. Chandler is said to be
without a rival in Europe, with the
exception of King Edward himself,
who is probably the greatest living
authority on the subject of European
orders.
A story is told that on one occasion
the Superintendent of the Wardrobe
"passed" the placing of the Star of
the Indian Empire over, instead of
under, the Star of India on one of
His Majesty's uniforms, the latter

The annual number of suicides is

about 70,000 in all Europe. Is is in-

the United States it has increased from
twelve in the million in 1881 to 126 in
the million in 1907. Climate, Geo.

Of all the minor churches in Lon-

name from the old Abbey and Convent
of Barking, in Essex, is most attrac-

Next to St. Paul's Cathedral, it has
the largest number of sightseers from

the visitors' book are those of people
from China, Australia. New Zealand,
America, India, and Johannesburg.
It was the resort of pious wanderers
from very early times, a vision of Ed-

most modern pilgrims are attracted
there by its interesting associations

Gen. French's adventures in the
South African war were endless, but
one of tlie most amusing occurred one6
morning, when a war correspondent,
with a rather high-handed manner,
came riding into camp. He saw a sol-
dier outside one of the tents, so dis-

soldier, and immediately obeyed. The
war correspondent strolled off in
