ItietteliislatiliD liras rcIURSDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1914 AGAINST AN ELECTION. MIMI The general feeling arnonithe people Of Canada is that there should not be an election this year. Readers of the TIMES will heartily endorse the follow- artmle which appeared in the Montreal Star on Oetaber 15th: - "The rumors which hav e been set afloat that a Federal general election might be precipitated at this time are silrely to be deprecated. We do not believe for a moment that the Govern- ment have any su h intention in mind. The whole nation is to -day acting under a party truce, reached deliberately and with patriotic unanimity, in order that Canadians might move as a unit against by far the most menacingdanger which has ever threatened our country or our Empire. A general election could not he called now without causing a fierce renewal of party strife - without dividing our people into two hostile camps -without leaving the Liberals under a bitter sense of betrayal, after having been led iuto the "ambush" of patriotic co operation. It would be like approaching a foe with a flag of truce and then opening fire on them. As we have said, we have not the slightest notion that the Government entertain any such treacherous intention. Another very mischievous result might ensue. It would be impossible for the Government to order an election at this time without bringing their policy of assistance to the forces of the Empire under revieW. While the Op- position have heartily approved of the prineiple of their action, and have loyally abstained from criticizing de- tails, still it would be difficult to pre- vent a defeat for the Government - should it come -from being interpreted aa a condemnation by the Canadian people of their action in support of the Empire. That would be a most un- fortunate thing to happen just at this time. It would hearten our enemies and dismay our friends It is earnestly to be hoped that we will hear no more of this nonsense about an appeal to the people at this most inopportune moment." A NEEDLESS SCARE. Most Canadians are agreeably sur- prised to find that the war has so slight- ly increased prices, and that most of the scare which was felt at the out- break of the war has disappeared, Slowly but surely "business as usual" is being accepted as the motto of our entire people. The Canadian Grocer, in its review of the market situation is- sued on the. 17th inst., says: So completely has the war scare been dispelled that there does not even ap- pear to be any reason why it should have started. Working around in a circle, the wholesaler blames the re- tailer; the retailer the public; the public the newspapers, and so on; people bought largely because the prices were advancing and the prices advanced be- cause of the demand of the people. The fear that Canada would not be able to import foreign foodstuffs has little foundation now that the British fleet has taken control of the world avenues of commerce. There is prac- tically nothing important that is out of the market at present, so to speak, but French and Belgian lines, which are canned goods for the most part, and there is no reason why Canada cannot take care of her own needs in these lines. There will be some goods that will not be available, but they do not come under the head of staples. For the future there are some clouds of un- certainity, but these are too far ahead to have muchinfluence on the present situation. In grocery lines in general there is a slightly downward tendency in the prices, particularly with regard to the imported goods, delivery of which is now being taken for granted. It is not surprising that something approaching a panic was created in Canada, Lollowing the outbreak of a great European war, in which not only Great Britain, but her colonies as well was involved, but now that the broad Altantic, but the still broader Pacific are a'reely as eafe to merchantmen as Lake Superior, there has been a rapid recurs) of confidence.

'oThe; will is said to read as follows: - This is the last will and testament 'of me Wilhelm the super-swanker and ruler of the sausage eaters, recognizing that I am fairly up against it and expecting to meet with a violent death at any moment at the hands of brave Jenny Bull, hereby make my last will and testament. I appoint the Emperor of Austria to be my sole executor: by kind permission of the sallies, (1) I give and bequeath to France the territories of Alsace and torraine, as this is only a case of returning stolen property. I dont deserve any credit for it and don't expect to get it either. (2) To Servia I give Austria, (3) To Ruesia I give Turkey for the Czar's Christmas dinner. (4) To Belgium I should like to give all the thick ears. black eye and broken noses she presented me with when I poltely trespassed on her territory (5) To Admiral Jellicoe I give all my dreadnoughts, submarines, torpedo boat bestroyers and fleet of Funkers gener- ally, what is left of them. He is bound to have them in the end so this is only anticipating events. (6) To John Bull I give what is left of my army as his General French seems so hanciyat turning my men into sausage meat. I suppose he means to finish his job with Kitchener the champion German sausage cooker. (7) To the British Museum I leave my famous mustaches as a souvenir of the greatest switnIter of th's ()rang other age. (8) To Mrs. Pankhurst and the wild women I leave my mailed fist, no doubt they will find it useful when they re- sume their militants tactics. (9) To Sir Ernest Shackleton I leave the pole, I have been up it so long that I regard it as my own property. (Signed) H. I. M. WILHELM.

There is nothing in the world quite as exasperating as not being able to go to sleep when you want to, and persistent insomnia is one of the great- est curses of mankind. But many peo- ple suffer from insemnia from lack of knowing many of the simple devices that have been tried in the past to pro- voke sleep, and Sir James Sawyer in a recent work points out how valuable some of these simple means have been. Few plans are more successful, he suggests, than that of running around the bed, particularly if the night is cold. It will be remembered that Charles Dickens, who was greatly af- flicted with sleeplessness, declared that if he could lean on the bedpost in thin attire, in which he usually slept, un- til he got chilled clear through the. re- turn to a warm bed would produce a drowsiness that led him along the path of sleep. William Harvey, the discoverer of the circulation of the blood, was a be- liever in the circulation of the bed also. He declared that for sleepless- ness nothing was better than to jump out of bed suddenly, as though fright- ened, race around the bed with very little on until the skin was cold and the body heated and then jump back into bed. Not only was the exercise good, he believed, but also the feeling that one was being withheld from go- ing to bed caused a desire for it, which prepared the mind for sleep when once more lying down. -Cleve- land Plain Dealer.

It Threatens to Some Day Engulf New York and Boston. .••••••.••• .•••••• an Time, Thousands of Years, Per- haps, the Atlantic Ocean, According to Geologists, Will Flow Over the Cities That Now Tower Above Ito Shores, Government geological experts have talculated that New York, Roston. Philadelphia and all the ether cities along the Atlantic coast will eventual- ly sink beneath the ocean. They bave observed that there has been a steady sinking of the whole coast, and they illy that it Is going on at -the present moment. Geologista have long recognized the 'fact that the Atlantic coast line Was 11:111Ch farther Out than it is now. There is a line from 100 to 300 miles off the present coast at which the water sud- denly gets deeper. Out to that distance Ilia water is generally about 30Q feet deep. Then it plunges suddenly and becomes tett times as far to the ocean's bottom. The men of the coast survey have traced this line throughout the length of our coast line and find it similar all along. The geologists say that the continent once reached out that fai and that there was the coast line. but a gradual decline through the ages has caused that line to retreat, until now it is where we know it. From a geological standpoint this has happened in comparatively recent times. It has all been done since the glacial period. This bririgs it into the present period and makes the action new. In fact it is positively known to be going on now. There is an ancient sill in the Charles- town navy yard at Boston with re- gard to which there is definite informa- tion as to its elevation. It was put in place seventy years ago; its eleva- tion was given with relation to mean, high and low tide, and also with refer- ence to surrounding landmarks. With relation to the tide this sill has sunk seven -tenths of a foot. With relation to the landmarks it has the same posi- tion, a positive proof that Boston har- bor and the city about it have sunk seven -tenths of a foot into the sea in the last seventy years. The original mouth of the Hudson river IA now 200 miles out to sea. The Ohips follow its old channel in leaving port even now. It is not known how long ago it was when the mouth of the river was not far out in the ocean. But It is almost a certainty that when a similar time has elapsed the present city will be an equal distance from the then land. Similarly will Boston be submerged. Baltimore will disappear at about the same time and great portions of Wash- ington. The great Mississippi is bring- ing down great deposits to raise its delta and counterbalance the decline. So low is New Orleans that it will be one of the first cities to sink below the lea level and be a municipality high Walled against the enemy, the sea. Gal - Mitten has already felt the encroach - tient of the waters and has been forced Lo build itself a sea wall. The geological survey makes topo- graphical maps. On these lines are run at given elevations. For instance, a 'line may be run about Manhattan Is- land at a level twenty feet above the water at the Battery. It ;would sub- Inerge the customs house and extend up Broadway nearly to Wall street. From the east it would invade the financial district almost to Nassau street..' It would overflow half the land between the city hall and the East river. Far- ther up it would submerge a narrower Strip, but its Intrusion would create great havoc. A fifty foot rise of water would wipe Manhattan Island out entirely. Of course, If these depressions came on Very gradually the water fronts would be diked against their intrusions. In this way New York city might be eayed trom destruction for a very long time. tt wfil inevitably beeome a city sur- rounded by a hlgh levee, against which the wean will beat with an ever in- ereasing advantage. It might perpetu- ate itself by artificial roeans, but in the end It will be put in an impossible posi- tion. The waters will follow over the data of New Jersey and of Long Island. They will even beat back through the Delaware and the Chesapeake and get beyond the city end cut off coin- Inunication with the main part of the land. Finally, New York will find It.. telt a city down in a well far out from the mainland. Gradually the people Who dwell in It will desert it and re- pair to the then mainland. The waters Will eventually lap away the great walls that have been built to keep mit the sea and•will tumble in among the skyserapers.-W. A. Du Puy's "Uncle Sam. Wonder Worker." Presence of Mind.

That does not mean that he must buy a lot of stimulating foods for his flock. This may get the eggs for a time, but it is detrimental to the health of the &ibis. The best way to get winter eggs is to hatch the pullets early in the spring and put them into winter quarters early, feeding them an egg laying diet.
