Mrs. Farrington—once the famous
Marietta Vanorie of the operatic
stage, and now a wealthy widow, an
entree to whose house was considered
one of the vouchers for fafhionalile
lip in New York --was, sitting pic-
turesquely in ttie farm parlor, with
wine - colored - draperies festooned
against the walls to shut out alt pos-
sible and impossible draughts ; a sofa
covered with oriental`cusliions, at her
left, and a rich Morizapore rug ander
her feet. Books, tea -rosebuds, and
rare old crackle china covered a round
table near her, and the little cabinet
piano,without which she never travell-
ed, was open, and strewn all over with
sheets of music ; for Mrs Farring-
ton,
ton, although she had never trodden
the stage since her marriage, now
nearly twenty years ago, was still
as much devoted as ever to her music.
She smiled graciously on Colonel
Porde, who was one of her prime
ministers in the wor.d of fashion,
extended a tiny, dietmond ' spatt•kling
hand, and murmured a few words of
welcome to hint.
You are surprised to find us here,
she said. It was my daughter's fancy.
My maid, Natalie, and Mrs. Budd,
the housekeeper, came down with us,

direction of the Governor•in••flonncil.
This fund went on accumulating until

were made. Between the passage of

the Government- would expend this
improvement fund among the munici-
palities in making public improve-
ments. At the time of; Confederation
the fond arising from crown lands
amounted to $101.771 and from
school lands to $124,685. In the
public accounts, • however, at that
time the latter sum purported to
form part of the common school fund,
but the arbitrators appointed ander
the provisions of the 13. N. A. Aot to
settle all questions of account between
Ontario and Quebec and the Dominion
awarded that the sum should be added'
to the $101,771 previously referred to,
and that the interested Ontario muni-
cipalities were entitled to the two
SUMS from Canada as a liability of
the old Province of Canada. If the
Dominion handsthe whole of this
money to the Ontario Goverument
for the use of the municipalities it
will be entitled to charge the Pro-
vinces of quehec and Ontario with the
amounts so paid. o

Twenty years lige the cheesemaking
industry in Ontario }was an insignifi-
cant affair. Today it is one of the
Greatest industries,;in the Province.
The value of the elfeese in Ontario in
1888, $6,203,x33. The quantity made
was 65,387,059 pounds : the quantity
of milk used was 665,250,1335 pounds.
The growth of this industry is
largely due to the Ontario Govern
ment. Tse Government has net
fostered it by putting a tilx on the
consumres of cheese.- It has, by aid-
in,g tbo deity associations, by printing
their dairy reports, by the ipstructions
given at the Model Farm and at
farmers' institutes,encouraged he -
proved methods of cheesetnaking and
enabled the people of Ontario to hold
their own in the markets of the world.
By this means they have taken posses-
sion of the English market, where
Canada last yehr sold eheese to the
value of $8,871,205. 'This is more
than twice the value of our entire ex-
port of niannfacteres. And tile Federal
