She gave them a plain enough supper of bread and butter, fried potatoes and ham, but to the boy it was a feast, and he ate as any hearty child might who had eaten a single slice of bread since rising that morning. Bessie hardly knew what she was eating ; it mattered little to her, she drank the hot tea; it tasted good, and then was ready for bed "Stay downstairs a little while, mother" begged the boy, for two of the boys they had seen on the street had come hi and were star- ing at the i. us& company.

The duty on eggs coming into Canada is three cents per dozen. If the Reciproeity Agreement goes into effect this duty will be removed and the importations of eggs will greatly increase.

Editor Herald Undoubtedly your readers have followed the debates Viet are going on in the house since the reciproci- ty agreement has been laid before Parliament. It bas been the subject of numer- ous speeches for and against, but so far no arguments have been ad- vanced by the opposition . that would change the popularity of the agreement. Reciprocity is without doubt the greatest question the people. of Canada has faded for years, and the country at large is showing its keen interest by the the batches of resolutions and private views that are read before the house at every sitting. -One of the argaments of the op- position so far, is that the country»» being in a flourishing state we should "let well enough alone" whereas the government contends that we should "advance" increase the prosperity. by giving the farm- ers better opportunities, (for .they are after all the pivots un which swings trade) and at the same time give enough protection to the man- ufacturers to continue to prosper as in the past. Another argument is that it will eventually bring annexation. but it is not taken seriously either here nor in the U. S, As a )natter of fact, American manufaoturers are establishing factories an various. parts of Canada at the peee,ent time Another patent fact, is the en- ormous amount of foreign capital which is pouring in Canada In one institution alone "The Bank of Canada" which is being incorporat- ed at the present session, seven millions dollars of a capital of ten millions is being taken up by french capitalists. It is evident that if the financial world only suspected, an. nexation with the disturbances that would follow it, that notwith- standing the present and antioipat- ed prosperity, that no such evidence in favor of the reciprocity agree ment would te visible. Of course the opposition is in periled:errt , oppose But the conservative p: having no platform nor even to',• gible suggestions, is content t» oppose, In fact they can 'only de- pose, for even they, when in power recognized that such a treaty would be advantageous to Canada, when in 1894 by an aot, a standing offer was passed offering reciprooi- ty in every vetgetable 'products of the farm. .And instill earlier years, it was one of their election cry, for in the electoral campaign of 1891, the "Mail and Empire" of Toronto, was boasting that of ten reciproci- ty offers to the United' States. nine were noa.de by the conservatives. But now it is 'let well enough alone" with thein. There are afew bolters in the liberal ranks, but they are likely manufacturers, who, although rich today, aro never eatisfied. On the other hand, we see cons©rvativ. es dropping . partisan notions and endorsing fully: thsetreaty. It is therefore evident that the reciprocity agreement as laidbefore parliament. is a move in the right °ettof t y ed that the people of endorse it by a bit; en the time comes, and iu 011°11gh alone" will eft' a iaont:" Canadian, Wheat ..................

Reciprocity will give Canadian farmers the privilege of selling their eggs in the United States ab lower prices than they can get for them in Canada, and it will give farmers of Australasia, the United States and twelve other foreign countries the right to send eggs into Canada free of duty. The report of the United Statos Govern- ment experts also deals with the prices of other farm products in the two countries. The Csnadian Century will pbulish the figures in future issues and those who read them will be convinced that Canadian fanners have nothing to gain by Recipro- city with the United States.
