Baggage checked through to destine author, as they do to the country for
tion and full information given whereby
travelling will he make pleasant and jwhich'he officially speaks,
free from annoyance. Tourist and I The minister of militia says in as
many words that Kitchener was incom-
petert, that the strategic values of
positions on the eastern front were un-
known to him; that he held the Ypres
sailent for sentimental reasons, and
that therefore the blood of the breve
men who have fallen in the fight for
this territory is on Kitchener's head.
It is to be particularly noted that
Hughes claims to have left nothing but
a verbal record of his intervention -the
same kind of records that were left by
Allison in his fues transactions, to
which Mr, Justice Duff made scathing
reference. Two hours would have
sufficed to set forth in writing the argu-
ments Hughes claims to have submitted
verbally to Lord Kitchener. He did not
spare those two hours for a task which
he now tells the people of Canada was
a matter of life and death to the Cana-
dian battalions holding the Ypres sailent.
His indictment of Kitchener therefore
becomes a still more damning indictment
of himself.
Those who know Sir Sam Hughes
will find no difficulty in reaching a con-
clusion. They will stamp the story of
his interview with Lord Kitchener as
the crudest sort of fiction. The char-
acter of Britain's late war minister is
pretty well known, and if Sir Sam
Hughes bad undertaken to give him
lessons in military strategy he would
have been more likely to indulge in
strong language than in tears.
The whole connection bas its inspira-
tion in the desire of Sir Sam Hughes to
capitalize,Canadian losses on the battle-
field It is a belated card played in the
Allison scandals in the hope that it may
help to turn the scale of public opinion
in his favor. To the end that Allison's
predatory activities may he excused,
the dead Kitchener is defamed. To the
end that the Hughes -Allison partnership
may be robbed of its right perspective,
Canadian casualties are exploited as if
they were a marketable commodity.

EARLY DAYS IN HURON COUNTY
From The Orillia Packet.
In an obituary notice of the late
Samuel Trott, The Seaforth Exposi-
tor says: "The deceased, who was
born near Taunton, Somersetshire,
England, was one of the fathers of
the town, having come to Seaforth
about fifty years ago. when one or
tv'o houses comprised the extent of
the place. He commenced a coop-
erage business, and has resided here
continuously ever since, with the
exception of a short time spent in a
visit to Kansas." The deceased was
the father of Mr, William Trott, a
well known citizen of Collingwood.
The 'Expositor, we fancy, must be
either mistaken in the date of Mr.
Trott's coming to Seaforth, or in its
statement that at that time the em-
bryo village contained only two
houses. The writer first saw Sea -
forth in October, 1861, say 55 years
ago. At the time the hamlet must
have bad at least from twelve to fif-
teen houses. Two of them were
large (for the time) frame hotels,
one kept by a man named Downey,
and the other by a Mr. Carmichael,
both standing at the corner formed
by the intersection of the Huron
road with the fine gravel "pike" run-
ning north through Ainleyville (now
Brussels) to the village of Wroxeter.
That same winter Seaforth began to
grow like a mushroom, and within
three or four years was one of the
busiest and smartest small towns in
Upper Canada. Gradually the new
village swallowed a good part of
Egn.ondville, only a mile and a quarter
south, and speedily almost the entire
village of Harpurhey, the same
distance west.
Grain was drawn from great stretches
north, where the newly -settled country
was fast developing, as well as from
the other points ot the compass. In the
winter of 1864 or 1865 the writer was
told that there were twenty-eight
regular grain buyers in the village. In
those days only one railway ran west of
Stratford -the Buffalo and Lake Huron,
from Buffalo to Goderich-anti there
was no line of rail north of that, or of
the main line of the Grand Trunk.
Seaforth's singular prosperity lasted
until the country behind it was tapped
by the locomotive. Then grain found
a nearer market, and the tributary
area became so much circumscribed
that the proud position of the busiest
town in the Huron tract was speedily
lost.
HiGH COST OF LIVING.
Things That Are Mere Comforts Novi
Used to Be Luxuries,
No economist has put enough empha-
sis on the fact that if the cost of living
is higher now it is to a gage extent
because the average man is demanding
more comforts and luxuries, and these
must cost more. Before the days of
plumbing and bathrooms the workman
missed some onerous bills, but be is.
not ready to throw the plumbing, out
of the house.
011 is cheaper for light than electric-
ity, but people pay More for a modern
light because they want the better
service even at the higher prices,,
Workmen by the thousands have phon-
ographs, a form of entertainment un-
known until a very few years ago.
Even street cars are rather a new
thing, and the poorest families spend
many dollars every year for this serv-
ice, which has become indispensable.
Magazines are purchased now by many
people who ten years ago had never
subscribed for such a publication.
Thousands of articles are for sale in
every department store, of which as
large percentage are purchased at some
time or other by the average wage
earning family.
Modern living does cost more as-
suredly, but it also yields more.

SPEED OF A STAR.
With a Thought That. Points a Moral
to Impatient Humanity.
There is a star -a reddish star known
as Arcturus -that is traveling at the
rate of 150 miles a second, and what
is interesting about it is it is coming
this way and will come for many
years, but it is so far away that 1t
doesn't seem to have any motion at
all. It is in exactly the same spot, se
far as our vision is concerned, where
it was a century ago.
There is another star known as the
"runaway" whose speed is twice that
of Arcturus -that is, it could sweep
across Ohio in a second of time.
We refer to this fact that the gentle
reader may understand how insignifi-
cant are the little concerns of life that
tear his patience into tatters and turp
the world into woe. Long after he has
gone Arcturus will be traveling 150
miles a second and to all appearance!
not budging an inch. How modest and
patient should this touch of near in-
finity make us all! And yet, as Ten -
Dyson says:
We cannot be kind to each other here toe
an hour.

grin at a brother's shame.
However, we brave it out; we men ars a

A little boy of Mr. James Shielis, of
East Wawanosh, got his arm broken

On Thursday of last week, Mr. G.
Clelland. who works on the farm of
Mr. J. H. Linklater, of Turnberry, met
with a severe accident, which might
have proved fatal. While harnessing a
a horse, the animal kicked him on the
face, cutting his Hp and breaking a
tooth and rendering him unconscious
for nearly two hours.
DECLINE SUBST ITUTES►
WHY THE GERMANS WANT
VERDUN.
Why do the German armies battle
contiruously at the road to Verdun?
The question has been asked by thous-
ands, answered by few. Le Corrier des
Etats Unis, a French newspaper publish-
ed in New York, gives the most reason-
able of all the explanations. The
article, in trar,slation, follgws:
"The Basin of Briey, lying between
Verdun and Metz, is the field of battle
for the control of iron, and iron is king
in this war. Before the war Germany
mined 28 million tons of iron ore every
year. Of this 21,000,000 came from
that part of the Basin of Briey annexed
in 1870-74. France mined 22,000,000
tons, and of this 15,000,000 w as pro-
cured from that portion of the Basin
still in French hands.
"Since the war. France, having lost
the Basin of Briey by invasion, had
been forced to rely upon England and
the United States for iron ore. Ger-
many on the contrary, having occupied
the iron district not only of France, but
of Luxembourg, has kept the machinery
going full blast, thus adding to its
normal production of 28.000,000 tons,
our 15,000,000 and 6,000,000 more from
Luxembourg, a total of 49,000,000 tons
of ore. In Germany 100 tons of pig
iron give 92 tons of steel Probably
therefore over 40,000,000 tons ot steel
make Germany's war output.
"If the Germans could become
masters of Verdun they believe that
they could prolong the war indefinitely,
but on the contrary, if we could advance
to Metz we would at one blow put an
end to the war, for we would cut off
nine -tenths of the total steel production
of the German Empire."

It Is his duty to save automobile tires
by removing from the roadway every
