' Artists and writers have changed public opinion. For years the tower has been an integral part of the back - :ground of all the innumerable paint- ings of the quais. Within the last four years at least four romances have been published in which hero and heroine, typically Parisi^.n in every other respect, found the tower a tryst- ing place. Native opinion changed. The immediate result was tribute, somewhat '. dated, to the memory of Gustave Eiff .1, the engineer who built the. tower. The monument, a bust on a circular dais, wil. be erected at the base of the tower. It will be in place in time for commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the birth of Eiffel. The engineer was born in 1832 at Dijon; on the Cote d'Or. eirprZOLiii ;'s The sea is his home ..• the ocean lanes his streets . . . the ship his life and his love.

Turkey to Cease Use of Arabic Letters June 1 Latin Characters Learned at State Schools Under Re- form Ordered by Kemal. People Approve Change • Angora, Turkey -Mustapha Kemal Pasha's major reform in the west- ernization of Turkey will go into ef- fect officially on June 1. After that date Arabic writing will he entirely forbidden throughout the country and all Turks will be required to use the Latin characters which ,they have been learning in special government schools. Although state papers have been Pharaoh's Games Shown at Cairo � Canada. Figures i 1, on. immigration New Tut -ankh -Amen Relics on View for First Time Cairo—Howard Carter is continu- ing his work on the Tut -ankh -Amen tomb at Luxor and treasures of antiquity- are still being brought to view, much to the delight of tourists. The public is now hav- ing its first opportunity of seeing at the museum the new objects from the tomb, which arrived in Cairo re- cently in 90 cases, heavily guarded. To -day, lovely alabaster vases and inlaid faience are exposed to `view, also figures, finely worked, of the of the sacred Ibis and a representa- tion of the Egyptian god "Bes," a form of vase, which is still sealers, probably containing scent, an inter- esting hand drill for • burning holes written in the Latin alphabet ever in wood and making fire, a gold Seep - since the reform was first inaugurated ter inlaid with multicolored glass, which is•a unique find, a lovely silver vase which looks as though made yesterday. , Other exhibits include a. large mortal iu alabaster of a boat, ibis heads form- ing the prow and stern, a cabin in the forth of a shrine, while in the bow is seated a woman, with two bronze swords, of which only one specimen is known—that Khepesh sword. Another remarkable exhibit is a large bed, heavily geld plated, which resembles other types of Tut -ankh - Amen furniture, the fibre springs re- maining in an extraordinary state of preservation. Interesting examples of games played at Pharaoh's court are also shown, including a fine ebony gam- ing board, still highly polished, marked out in squares on which are pictures which determine the count- ers' moves. An ivory drawer contains knucklebones and four flat pieces of ivory, which were thrown as an equivalent of dice, and another Lwo miniature ivory gaming boards. Other lovely new exhibits are now on view, and many smaller, • which are still unpacked, and unlikely to be shown before next winter, ween it is probable that the Tut -ankh -Amen tomb will have been completely cleared. Arabic letters were permitted in pri- vate communications. During this time all citizens fietween the ages of sixteen and forty have been required. to attend the national schools to learn the new characters. Kemal Teaches Classes The reform has proved so popular that many men and women more than forty have attended the classes, some of which have been taught by Kemal himself. The, misfortune of King Amanullah of Afghanistan, who lost his throne because of the efforts to force Occi- dental civilization upon his subjects, has made little impression here. The only concession which the govern- ment has made to tradition has been an amendment making Arabic legal for inscriptions in the mosques and for the Koran, and the temporary postponement of the adoption of Sun_ day as a legal holiday instead of the Islamic' Friday. ' Young Minister Dies The death of Nedjati Bey, the young Minister of Public Instruction, who had charge of the reform program, has not brought any relaxation in the government's ecorts to teach the new, alphabet to the 14,000,000 inhabitants. Nedjati died of appendicitis and it was charged in the Turkish press that the inefficiency of his physicians was responsible. The Minister of Public Hygiene, re- plying to a question in the National Assembly, defended the physicians and declared the death ,vas due sole ly to the gravity of the illness. Premier Ismet Pasha ' temporarily took over the portfolio, and continued the campaign. It is learned that Wasil Bey, who has resigned as Am- bassador to Moscow and who formerly was Minister of Public Instruction, will succeed Nedjati.. Ile recently was elected Deputy for Smyrna. ,y He who said "The Sabbath was made for lean, not man for the Sab- bath," would also have said, "Mar- riage was made for man, not man for marriage."—Dean Inge.

Australian Gold Yield Declining y Largel Increased Costs of Largely Production the Cause of Diminution Melbourne, •Vie,—Gold is to be found practically all over Australia, but for various reasons, not the least of them labor troubles and conse- quently largely increased costs of production, the yield is declining very considerably. In 1928 the total gold obtained was 457,201 ounces fine, which is 47,856 ounces less than in 1927. The decrease applies to all states. In Victoria the' amount won was less by 4,621 'ounces than in 1927, and the New South Wales yield fell short by 5,200 ounces, The closing of the rich Mount Morgan, mine In Queens- land, which also abounds in copper, gave Queensland a very low return, but with the price of copper now at an attractive level, there is a big pos- sibility that capital will he forthcom- ing to enable work to be resumed there • MViines in Western Australia, the richest of all the states in gold, main- tained a steady output, the yield being not far below that of 1927.

Dominion Looks for Onllux of Nearly , 200,000 This Year Homestead Filings Gain Ilnmilration to Canada opened up e little brighter and more auspiciously in 1929, and should theincrement re- corded in Janeary, ry, which is -nota month of active, movement, be eon tinned throughout the year the aggre- gate for the twelve months should come much nearer the 200,000 mark, says a recent Canadian Pacific Rail- way bulletin, The total of new ar- rivals in January was 4,164, as com- pared with 3,632 in 1928, an increase of 12,78 per cent. Newcomers from the British Isles totaled 1,133, as com- pared with 771 in the previous year, an increase of .46 95 per .cent. Citi- zens of the United States totaled 1,578, as against 1,223; an increase of 28.61 per cent. The nuinber of en- trants from all other countries was 1,458, against 1,698, a decline of 14.13 per cent. • Swelling the movement from across the international border, "which was the outstanding and most gratifying feature of the immigration situation in 1928," says the bulletin, were 1,767 Canadians who had made permanent homes in the United States and were returning to Canada to live, as compared with 1,683 in January, 1928, an increase, of 4.99 per cent. "The month of January likewise gave indication of an active year of land settlement, with every likelihood of its surpassing in this regard 1928, which was the most outstanding of the post-war period. Canadian farm lands are again coning strongly into the limelight as the cheapest of their kind in the world. New transporta- tion arrangements for the Peace River country of Northern Alberta have in- duced a flow of settlers it,.to that terri- tory, which doubled its population last year. "Projected new railway lines in yet unexploited territory in the North- west is focusing attention upon set- tlement possibilities there. Vacant lands in developed communities are proving more attractive to newcom- ers with small capital: Considerable expansion is taking place in the irri- gated sections of Southern Alberta. There is every sign that a consider- able volume of new colonization will he accomplished in 1929. olomestead Filings Gain "Homestead filings, after. recording an increase of nearly 150 per cent. in 1928 over 1927, started off the year with a further increment of 66 per cent., 761 homesteads being filed upon in January, compared with 457 in the corresponding month of the previous year. Alberta showed 386 filings, against 201 in 192S, this being largely due to new acreage taken up in the Peace River country, which sec- tion accounted for 33 per cent. of the Provinces filings in 1928, Filings in Saskatchewan rose from. 194 to 309, both Prince Albert and Moose Jaw offices recording large increases. British Columbia. more than doubled its filings, figures rising from eleven to twen'y-four. Manitoba was the only Province to register a decline, figures dropping from fifty -ono to forty-two. %"The Canada Colonization Associa- tion similarly started off the year in an active manner. After settling 667 families in 1928, bringing its record of colonization., since inception up to 3,038 families ou 715,789 acresf land worth $29,653,958, twenty-five' fami- lies were placed on 3,227 acres of land worth $53,490 in January of the present year, all with the exception of five families in Ontario being in the Western Provinces. The association has an elaborate program of settle- ment for the present year, with 400 families definitely ready for settle- ment at the opening of 1929, in addi- tion to which e reservoir of 500 fami- lies is to be created and maintained at that strength This is being ef- fected through temporary placement, while a cottage scheme is being de- veloped for the benefit of British set- tlers. Only those families will be immediately settled on the land which have sufficient means of their own or which insist on immediate settlement this to further offset possibility of Peaplo 010 else liar ;things f life usual! ,dernand Red Rose Orange Pekoe Teso TeaAmoney-back gui; antee.w;tb even` package. cal REP, ROSE ORANGE PEKOE is extra g:22.4 difficulties arising from inexperience. From these temporary• placements the association will draw steadily for its permanent settlement activities, Land Vaiuea Rise "Canadian farm lands ,though still cheaper than others of their class elsewhere, are rising steadily in value, In 1901 the average acre of farm land in Canada, improved and unimproved ,together with buildings thereon; -was $22.13 per acre, whereas in 1911 it had risen to $30,41, and in 1928 was worth' $38. Taking the Pro- vince of Alberta as typical of West- ern Canada in 1901, the average acre was worth $6.12; in 1911, $21.71, and in 1928, $28, the rise .in the first de_ cade of the century exhibiting the effect of active settlement. Due to their higher productive value in the last 'few years farm land values in many Provinces have risen lately. "Also because farm labor is com- ing to be increasingly regarded as the logical and surest road to farm own- ership, the Governmt-nts figures on farm wakes prevailing last year have interest. The demand for farm workers in Canada at all times is greater than the supply. Last year the Canadian Pacific Railway was able to fill only about half of the ap- plications filed with it for single male workers, much less than hall of tbose for domestics, and only about a quar- ter•of those for families on farms. "For the whole of Canada the aver- age wages per month of farm help during the summer season of 1928 were for men $40 and for women $24. In addition, the value of the board is placed at $23 for men and $20 for women. The total wages and board thus amounted to $63 for men and $44 for women. In Western Canada wages were higher, being $61 and $41 respectively in Manitoba; $69 and $47 in Saskatchewan; $72 and $49 in Alberta, and $77 and 52 in British Columbia," Minard's Liniment for Grippe and Flu. Cost of Living Quebec Evenement. (Cons.): There are four immense regions of different Character in the United States. The conditions of life vary as much from one region to another as between two widely -separated countries like, for example, Mexico and Spain. In the north-east, the north -centre and the far west certain industries and cer- tain labor anions are formidably or- ganized. Some artisans, such as auto- mobile workers, construction hands and railway workers, receive salaries which seem very large, even in com- parison with the salaries paid in Can- ada. But in New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, Seattle and San Francisco the cost of living is materially higher than it is with us. 1 ,0sea- NEW BABY DISTURBS TIRED OFFICE WORKER "When my oldest boy was just a few weeks old he was badly constipat- ed from my milk," says a Nebraska mother.
