It is therefore useless, if not absurd, to ho on spending- money upon interval eolniennica tions, upon railways, canals and rivers. To use his own simile, "The country has kept building up its tarrif hopper until it :las become unwieldy, but has'clone nothing to the spout," The result.is, the treflie is overflowing and we do not know what to do. Sir William's i . dea of' a remedy is to create a fast Atlantic passenger service superior to any- thing now aiioae ; this will bring in its train a fast and improved• freight the demised half way by furnishing 'service and the problem will be a daily edition at a, little more than solved. the weekly was once sold fi)r, So. it HOW WE LOS81 TRADE, has been with other articles coaling into general use. The demand has net with encouragement that result- ed in mutual benefit. Modern in- vention too, has lent a band, by reduc- ing the cost of production. Bat the one thing that has success- fully resisted the tendency of the times and the price cutting power of invention is the railway passenger rate. It was three eeuts years ago, and it is three cents yet. The rail ways are not slow to take advantage of improvements and the cost of carrying must have been re• diced. Consequently if travel has not been increased in a measure to justify lower rates the lack of en- :oura teement pffered to the public snllst beat some of the blame. The rate war of last summer, at Iease elbowed that the inducement of lower rates caused greatly increased travel and it would appear to be almost time for some road to break away from the numerous combinations, with winch all transportation lines care surrounded, and try what a rea- aettehle rare will do with a reas )n - able people.

And. h w.,e thesnoe es have met A dt s i Some of the statistics quoted by Sir William are decidedly startling, for few Canadians have realized what a tremendous amount, of busi- ness is being lost by the Canadian ports, because of the better facilities offered to ship from American ports, He declared that on Manitoba grain exported via Buffalo as compared with the St Lawrence rout,ethe pro portion in 1893, was two to one ; in 1894, three to one ; in 1895, eight to one ; in 1896, three to one ; and in 1897, five to one. The rates too, were abnormally high, and as an illustration, he quoted the rates in - force from May to October of 1897 on the two staple Hues of cheese and butter. These were as follows : • Cheese.

Deelaring that for over sixteen years he had been agitating for an improved service,. and the present one was• almost intolerable and that .it was altogether inadequate for thu. country,_and a .disgrace. to Cana'la, Sir William announced that if he had anything to do 'with the Atian tic steamship service be w )old con- sider it a ferry service and not an ocean service ; upon which he would have as 'fine boats as there are crossing the ocean, running at from 22 to 24 knots an hour.

A Ridiculous and False Claim. As a rule. modern newspaper advertis- ers endeavor to make their statements clear and truthful ; they know that an intelligent public—especially the wo. men portion—quickly cundem untruths. and..deeeption. Some advertisers, intending to soar high, saddetniy fall from the sublime to the ridiculous in their statements. Such errors' are promptly detected by the classes of people the advertisers would influence. imagine an advertiser of dyes for home dyeing, after giving a long list ot the virtues possessed by his products, re- marking, "They cleanse and dye aI. the same time." This statement made to tens ofthousands of intelligent `women is so contrary to truth and common sense, that the advertiser is, without loss of time condemned as a simpleton or de- ceiver. Dtatnond Dyes, the standard home dyes of .the world dare not make any such claim. To their valuable, book of home Dyeing (sent free to all who send for it) they specially mention that 68.11 goods should be Cleaned before they ate dyed." A Solon, however, arises in the land and formulates a new doctrine by asserting that Dyes "cleanse and dye at the same time." Soon wo will hear of souse new starch tnanntac- turer making a clttitn that lilts stakeh will cleanse and stiffen at the acme time !
