British brides will continue to

their brides with all their worldlyg

Church of England prayer book by
the British Parliament. An alterna-
tive church marriage service was pro-
vided in the new book—though the
old still would have been permissible
for unmodernized brides—lby which,
the word obey was omitted, and the

she had a kind and charitable spirit
and to the poor and humble was
known as a real Lady Bonntiful.
There was no seuse of restraint or
false embarrassment on her part.
Blake told her enough to appeise her
that he WAS engaged as a writer on a
new art journal. Cyrilla's father had
been somewhat of a connoisseur in
bric-a-brac and she invited Blake into
the house to view a cabinet In which
some rare oriental treasures were
stored. Rinke spoke of en article he

it was Welke's monument. On that
memorial, after the singing of "The

must not be forgotten, too, that in

Another question that has also
been raised is, why, when Canada
puts a tariff against Amevcian
goods, thousands of tons of maga-
zines published in tate United States
containing. advertising matter of a
very forceful and seductive chaeac-
ter, and wbSch .eroatos a demand for
American goods, are allowed, to en-
ter free of duty. Those Who have
carefully investigated this question
understand very clearly that by
means of these publications Ameri-
can manufacturers aro permitted to
exploit the Canadian market. This
advertising ie scattered broadcast
throughout Canada and yet the Do-
minion derives no revenue fromit
except in the way of postage. This
is a problem that ought to engage
the attention, not only of the Ad-
visory Tariff Board, but of the
best, minds in Canada dealing with
public affiars.
