"But, my dear, if he should suddenly take a notion to smoke he would melt away." The next morning Mr. Snowman was as as new, "You see, mother." said rggy. "My snowman doesn't smoke." But that afternoon when she came home from town with mother Mr. Snow- man had all disappeared but his pipe and his hat. "Oh. mother," cried Peggy, much dis- tressed. 'll'ou were right.

CARR-H.IRRIS APPEAL FAILS„ Aftermath of War ('ontraets-targe Sum Involved. Toronto, Feb. 25. -Robert Carr -Harris, a 7 orotto contractor and formerly a civil engineer on railways in China, sued the Canadian General Electric Co. to recover the balance of $100,000 commission, on which he has already been paid $17,000, for shell contracts secured for the Com- pany through an introduction to those in auth rity In England. Mr. Harr.s was a relation of Lord Buckmaster's, and through the avenue of that relationship he got introductions which might not otherwise have been ()trained. Justice Kelly dismiss. -d his claim at the trial on the ground that the contract between Harris and the Company was c ntrary to public policy.

It is quite as often the woman who don her own work at home.

"Is that so ?" queried the dense young man. "Yes," continued the maid. "but this line indicates that you are too stow ever to overtake it." seems to be in doubt, though five written reasons for judgment were handed down this morni g. Chief Justice Meredith. speaking for the court. stated that the appeal was ,dismissed. Justice Lennox dissenting. At the trial Justice Kelly had said that r if the contract was not contrary to public I policy Harris should get $17.000 morel than he had received. Three to Two. In the Appellate Court, three of the judges, Justices Middleton. Riddell and Lennox. say tfiere has been no infringe- ment o1 public pc,hcy. Two. Cbiel Justice Meredith and Justice Latchford, agree with Justice Kelly that public policy was infringed. Two of the judges, Justices Lennox and Middleton, state that Harris should receive $17,000 more than he has. Chief Justice Meredith and Justice Riddell say that he earned no cJm;t.issions. "That which the plaintiff desired, sought and contracted to sell, and wnicti alone was of any use to the defendants, and so the only substantial consideration for their contract to buy, was the influ• enee of one of the highest Ministers of the Crown in the British Government . (LordBuckmaster, _Chancellor) and of other �ersons rn heal official standing in Great Britain; an influence to be procured, in the one instance, through the ties o1 family connection. and in the other Mose of personal acquantanceships." "Tell that to the marines," the Chief ' Justice says he is tempted to say in an -I swer to a suggestion that a company capable of manutactunng ammunition in enormous quality needed such influence to get an attentive and anxious heannx at a time when British armies were in dangergof disastrous defeat for want of shells. Especially, he remarks, a company. such as the defendants, headed by the capable and persistent president they had and one who was both a member o. the Upper Ho..se and an officer of trig rank- even it only what is called "honer • ary' in the Canadian militia. ,justice Ridden says the plaintiff was but a fly on the wheel in the securing of cataracts. Justice Lennox would riverse the Dial judgment, and dir,ct judgment to be entered fur the plaintiff for $17,83980 with interest from September 5, 1917. Nothing Improper. Justice Middleton finds nothing improper in the transaction. He says : "No one in authority was to be improp- erly influenced. no public servant was to be called upon to depart from his pri nary obligation to the public. I am glad to reach this conclusion, as it is not a peas- ant this g to listen to an able counsel denouncing the infamy of conduct to which his client is a party as a means of escaping liAbility."
