ing raised by twenty-five cent suo-
scriptions, to he devoted to provid-
ing a library and other requisites
for the battleship named the "Do•
minion" after this country, furnish-
es an ideal opportunity for a display
of that patriotism which is at once
the pride and boast of the people of
Canada. There has already been a
most. generous response to the ap-
peal, but, no douat, there are thous-
ands of others who will be glad to
contribute to a fund which will ae
the means of giving so much real
pleasure to Jack afloat on the new
cruiser. The idea of [urnishiug
men of war by the places after
which they are called has become
quite popular in England and Au3-
tralia, and the compliment now paid
lo Canada is one which cannot fail
to be appreciated throughout the
length and breadth of the Dominion.
Certainly Canada will not be itchind
other eountrica in an interesting
matter of this kind, in fact the
people should rather be stimulated
to eclipse anything that lint yet been
done in this respect.
