Toronto Island, deserted to the east winds and mountainof ice in winter, 10 itself the center of a dense summer po. pulation. It is only a sandbar whioh, while providing a delightful beach gives little encouragement to vegetation. But it remains tremendously popular, as ay/. denced by the foot that comparittively small, rough -finished frame cottages ann. mend rentals of 5500 and more for the slimmer months. • CITY FULL OF VISITORS. But Toronto shows no signs of quietness, even in the dog days, far it le itself a eumnaer resort. Traffic on all the dowh- town streets is as depse in July as it in in April. It is only when ono visits the better residential streete and sees long rows of houses with the blinds drawn and no sign of life anywhere visible that one realives that the holidaye are in full swivnegr' Ey dna ay Aeriaan visitors throng the retail districte. Many of them come by boat from Niagera. American railwaye from all over the States run excursions to Niagara Falls and from that point thousands daily make a one -day trip Remise Lake Ontario to Toronto. The crowd at the foot of Yoege street after the arrival of a boat often seem to be composed entirelY of rieltors from Reza bloke, Tennessee or other tionthern polute. They are easily dietinguished froin bright- cheeked their Canadinne by sallow eom. plexions, and the little peculiarities of their clothes., and when they speak, by their delightful southern drawl.

DANGER OF FLAG INCIDENTS. One thing that coutinually threatens to mar the visite of our American cousins is the ever-present dancer of a flee in- oident cropping up. Perhaps it is an over -zealous Yankee peeriot, or it may be a materialistio Canadian merchant seeking cestomers, who invitee trouble by an improper use of "Old Glory." The trouble le that we on thie continent have not yet learned the etiquette of flag fle. Init. The universal rule is that if it 10 desired to disniny the flag of a foreign country, the flag of the soil on which it stands must top it on the Utast. If this rule were universally followed there would he no reason for anyone to feel and no reason for anv thinnlaints, "HERB" LENNOX'S PICNIC. "Herb" Lennox's picnic in North York has become an annual midsummer ineti- tution. It is announced that, new that Tammany Hall of New York has gone out of the picnic business, "Herb's" is the ereateet poilticai picnic in America.

Unfortunately some mortgages o cannot be coneidered investmente. nor yet sorne shares cannot be accurately de- r scribed as speculations. However, it is a fairly accurate definition, and pretty well on the safe side. Take such a seourity as Oonsumerie One Company of Toronto ehares.. These are used 943 an illustration because the Com- Pany is so situated that the hypothetical oases which I shall suggest cannot take place in connection therewith. I make this statement to reassure any holders of Consumers' Gas *mit, who might other- gwei4eionfeBel uneasy at reading these sug. Now, Consumers' Gas stock is ae nearly a true investment as it 1,3 possible for a stock to be. It has no speculative side. Its returns are limited by law to 10 per cent, on the par value, whieh represents about 51-4 per cent on the present mar- ket price of the [Mares. Its earnings have been steadily growing. and it ie ivell managed. It commands a ready market with very few fluctuations in price. Its assets are substantial and valuable, An. Dithently it is a pure quibble to say it is not an investment. Suppose,' however, the recent annexe - Moue to the City of Toronto required at sudden expansion in the 'company's sys- tem of mains and in its plant. A less substantial company would find it neces- sary to iesue securities more attractive than ordinary stock to raise the moneY, and conceivably the Consumers' Gee Company during some such period of etrese aa occurred in 1892, 1902 or 1907 might find it necessary to sell bonds to raise MS money. These bonds would, of course, come ahead of the common etock, and that stook would, by the issue of bonds, become less satisfactory as an in- vestment. Indeed, it might happen that as earnings are limited to a sum Bala. ent to nay 10 per cent,. on the common stock, that in order to pay the bond in- terest it would be necessary to cut the return on the junior security. Or, suppose,. under stress of a coal strike or some other unforseen , contin. eency, the Companyai earnings tell be- low the 10 per cent. mark. It would he necessary to cut the dividend in order to keep within the earnings. But a bond in a similar noeition couldn't be denied ite interest. In a period of stress such a company could raise by means of a loan from ite bank enough money to take care of such a temporary contiue gency. But the law and the ordinary principles of good business would pre- vent the direetors taking eimilar steps in oonnection with the dividend in •auch a 0500. ' That ie why a stock should not be called an investment. Many people will find fault with Gila attitude, but when we come right down to teeth nothing can be de. vised which will come ahead of a mort- gage -and therefore of bond, which is secured by mortgage: but If a contin- gency arises it is a very simple matter to slip in a couple of bond issues and all descriptions (if preferred stook be- tween the common ethek and the assets.

GET ACQUAINTED WITH YOUR NEIGHBORS. North York is one of those constituencies whioh shows more loyalty to men than to parties. This is illustrated by the feet that it is nearly the same riding that now gives Lennox a thousand of a nut- jority that used to give Sir William Mu - lock a four -figured majority nearly every election. "Bill" had hie own ways of keeping in totieh with his conetituents, the Menlo is "Herb's" way -one of them. It also elves him an opportunity to show a lot of hie city friends the beauties of Lake Simcoe. The farmers and their families come in thousands. There is dancing and sports and a good time gen- orally. with a suitable seasoning of speeches for the more serious-minded, epeechee which, it does not need to be added, contain only good Conservative doctrine. f 2 HYDRO -ELECTRIC LOSS.

Another parable -One of a group of eight parables men- tioned in the introductory notes to our last lesson, which compare. Verse 25. While men slept -- At night. It should be noted that no particular men are designated, it being the stealthiness of the en- emy, rather than any negligence on the part of the men who slept, which this part of the parable em- phacizes. 26. When the blade sprang up - When it grew tall and brought forth fruit. Resemblance to the grain was so close that it was not detected until the time when the ears of grain began to form. 27. Servants -Literally, bond -ser- vants. 28. An enemy -Literally, a man that is an enemy. Wilt thou then that we go -eag- erness of men to judge their fellows is a common hunian trait which even Christians do not escape. 29. Haply-Perchanee. Root up the wheat with them - The similarity between the wheat and the three noted above made this a real danger, but added to this the roots of the plants Would be intertwined in the soil, and thus it would be almost impossible to re- move the one without uprooting the .9t3}1r.0e.Gather. up first the tares -This would be impossible in actual prac- tice'in harvest fields with which we arefamiliar.

The field is the world--Proir ably Jesue intended with the term world to designate actually the whole world, though some haye thought that the interpretation of the parable requires a limitation of the word th that part of the world included in the kingdom which he was to eetablieh. Such a limitation, however! BMUS wholly unwarrant ed. In interpreting the parable we must remember that it is not intend- ed that the details of any of Ohrist's parables amulet be forced further than Jesus himseli carried the in, terpretation.

GOLD VEIN UNDER DOCKS. Workman Said to Have Made Dis- covery in Cape Town. A despatch from Cape Town. says: It is reported that gold -bear- ing quartz has been discovered in excavations under the docks here in a, reef 30 feet high. The man who discovered the vein is named Tear- nan. He was employe(' as a work- man on the dock eighteen years ago. Since then he has been em- ployed in the mines in the north and suspected the presence of geld in the soil here. He watched the excavations on Wednesday and e,ol- lected some specimens, which he submitted to experts. These men, who dicl not know their origin, said they were gold specimens frorn the Transvaal. . 5. KING SAVES A GENERAL. 'e Spanish Sovereign's Promptitude . Averts it Fatality.
