Bulking Largely.
Ae the resnit:of a special research
recently.copducted it is reported that
the • amount of United States invest=
' menta, hi Canada and N.e.wfonndland
at the •end. of 1925 was $2,825,000,000,
which amount is approximately $200,-

theDominion Bureau of Statistics at
the beginnng of 1924, indicating new'.
investment coming from , across the
border at a very heavy rate at Elie pre-
sent time: This is easily understood
when in the field of bond investment
alone the United States purchased to
the extent of $211,950,753 in 1924; ap-
proximately $175,000,000. in 1925; and
over $76;000,000 in the fust half of
1926.
United States capitalists first began
to exhibit a keen interest in Canadian
investments about 1900: At that time
the •amoitiut of United States -capital
invested in the Dominion was esti-
mated to be but $150,000,000, . Invest-
ments continued to be made at a
heavy rate thereafter unt11 thei figure.
had by 1913 increased some 400 per
cent. and amounted to .$750,000,000. At
the • outburst of the war British capital,
Which had up to that point been the
.y most important -factor in Canadian, de-
velopment, was estimated to be •stand,
ing at $2,600,000,040, or more . than
three times that of American.

ing up the greeter }'part of the total
and outweighing the purchase of Gov

and the latter 41 per cent. .
Money Brotight By Settlers.
In the same connection at the pre-
tithe when there is .evidence of a
Laval of interest on the part of
U.nited States farmers in Canadian
lands, it is interesting to note the
amoi lit of money brought into Canada
by United States citizens settlingin
• thit Dominion. In the::. past '"twelve
• y'e4xs, according to the Department of
Immigration' and Colonization; this -has
amounted to $163,470,553; an average
of approximately $13,625,000 per year,
The outstanding year in the period,
.alas that of 1912-13, when the farmer
bnovement-was at its peals, in which
twelve months settlers from the
United States brough'te$25,795,545 into
the Dominion. The fewest year was.
that of. 1915-16, when the total was
only $6,005,049. In the last fircal year
$6,277,122 , was added to Dominion
wealth in this manner.

A Flower Harvest.
Last night when over the meadows
Light as cobwebs the mists were flung,
When tile full moon's golden circlet,
Blandly over•. the forest .hung,
I'entreated my blossoming garden
The rose jar'I placed there, to fill;
And now I am hopefully watiug
Till it holds summer's' gifts. Until
The dew -covered roses; have fallen,.
And September adds mignonettes'
scent;
Till I find in my jar imprisoned
All the fragrant summer blooms' vent,
For the days when there is no verdure,
When the foliage. will droop and fa11,
Storms' over•tlie' roof are .sweeping,
Ora great silence broods over all, -
Then, in the dull hours of winter, .
When fhe country lies barren and dim,
I shall cherish the blossom aroma,
That will fill my jar to the'brlm.

Sixty Years for Christ.
A loaig life of cons,eratlon and ser-
vice, Came to' an end a few months ago,
when Dr. Chauncey Good+rich diad in
Peking. -Doctor Goodrich was in his
ninetieth Bear add , he had, not long,
before his (leat1i, 'completed sixty
years of missionary, Work' in the ser-
vitce of the American Board of Foreign
Missions in China. He wall eneof the

Shit, the leader of China's literary re-
volution, declares to be the most
powerful iufluen'ed in the itenaissenco
movement that is awakening Chinese
scholars aucl'liternry men to mesh and
eager intellectual life.
-Doctor Goodrich was buried beside
his wife and ninny another devoted
missionary worker, including the
martyrs of the Boxer year, in the
cemetery at 'rung Chou. One who
was present writes to the Congrega-
tionalist of the impressive scene.
"As the group following the casket
approached the cemetery, the sun
sank in clear golden .light behind the
pimple hills, and we heard the voices
of young girls, clear and sweet, sing-
ing one of the hymns Doctor Goodrich
translated. We found them standing
on either side of the green aisle
through which we :passi d to the open
grave. Over all was :the solemn mel-
low .light from the western hills.

"That broken Chinese voice had pro-

triumph; of one who might have said
with Paul, 'For me to live is. Christ,
and -to dye is gain.' And int. was also,
very full of the simple human
fellow-
ship which Doctor' Goodrich loved,
The young people from the schools
were thee as wedi•as their elders.. Old
friends were there, and little Chinese
children played about in the green
gloom and called to each other in their
high sweet voices., and no, one forbade
them. Village women were there and
men burdened.with heavy internation-
al responsibilities. They were all as
one in grief and thanksgiving and
praise.”
It was a fitting end to a beautiful
life.

them a trial. It was fortunate that I
did so, for under the use of this meth- r

WOMAN
Restored to Health byLydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound
Stratford, Ontario. — "After Icy
first baby was born I started to work
on the tenth day and did a big wash-
ing on the twelfth day. Being so
young (I was married at 19) I did not
know what was the matter, so let it
go until I was all run-down, weak
and nervous, and had a bad displace-
ment. For nearly two years I could
not sleep and I would always complain
of having 'not a head -ache, but a
brain -ache.' My mother is taking
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com-
pound during the Change of Life and
she recommended it to me. After
taking two bottles I began to get a
little sleep and to feel better and I
have never left off since then, except
for about three months. I can safely
say I haire taken thirty bottles since
my second baby was born. I think
it makes child -birth easier as I had
terrible pains with my first three
children and very few with my fourth
as I was so much stronger. I am
now able to do my work alone but
I am still taking the Vegetable Com-
pound as Tam nursing baby. "—Mrs.
Caine PAUL, 49 Cherry Street, Stmt..ford; Ontario.
