LAST C'IHRISTMAS MAIL.
It has been suggested by. the
post office department that J ae-
adians intending to send Christ-.
mas gifts to their relatives at the
front Shoula lose no trine in mail-
ing them. A boat will leave Halm
fax on Decemter 11, and Christ-
mas parcels should be; mailed to
connect with thio al: the latest, as
the trans-Atlantic service Ls some-
what disarranged.
LEVY A POLL TAX.
A novel suggestion for raising
revenue following the war from
alien enemies is made by a corres-
pondent. He suggest that a poll
tax should be leafed in the case ,of
every German, Austrian, and Turk
wishing to reside within the,leng'h
ana breadth of the British Empire.
His idea is that a stun of a1 least
;{:120 a year should he charged for
the privilege accorded.
