Over in England the shareholders in Canadian enterprises believe 'that these are the growing times, and when Sir Charles Rivers Wilson„ the president of the Grand Trunk, -at the annual meeting' of the shareholders, spoke ra- ther dolefully upon some points, took as he often does a very pessimistic view of the situation, he displeased his hear- ers. One of these, mr. Charles E. Mor- rison writes to The London Financial News that "we might almost have been _attending the obsequies of a railway company; instead of a, paean of .tri- umph, it was a positive dirge bf de- spair. He comes back imbued with What? With the paucity of labor! Could pessimism further go? Of course, the country wants labor; this is resultant on its prosperity. And what about the thousands that are literally pouring In- to the country? The president speaks of the moral obligations of the Cana - dean Government. I hope the directors will not forget the moral obligations they are under to their shareholdees. • He tells us , of the generally -improved position of iaffairs; •but it is Canada we have to !thank for this. Canada is on the floodetide of prosperity, and we are simply going with the tide. • The, president talks lugubriously of possible lean years; btft not even Grand Trunk directors can put back the clock in Canada. Haa he not, at the finish of his speech, talked of an increased divi- dend to the third preference holders, • sdme hard things would undoubtedly have been said.

Quebec will not by that time be connected leit the new Transoontina ental rtailWar, but they are 'connected eslosely enough even now to enable them to work together, so that these two events, 'which se profoundly affect- ; ed the history of thie continent, may be celebrated in a Way commensurate with their national significance. Quebec's Temente n a ry, Winnipeg is not the only place talk- ing of holding a celebration in 1908. While Winnipeg will be marking the one hundredth anniversary of the land- ing of Lord Selkirk's settlers, Quebec will be celerbating the tercentennial of her foundation by Samuel Champlain, and the little colony of twenty-eight Europeans who passed the first winter in Canada. The Quebec Chronicle, In a recent issue, points out the signift- • cance of the event and Urges ample preparation. "It is not too early," says The Chronicle, "to formulate a distinct scheme of action, to divide it up into Its proper sections and subdivisions, and to comineace the -collection a ar- toles and records of historie value, to ° ONE HOUSE TO A FAMILY'. Canadians a Well -Housed People Ao- codding to Dr. George Johnson. Dr. Geo. Johnson, ex -Dominion Sta- tistician, is now taking life easily run- ning an apple farm in the land of Evangeline. Ile finds time betweefl campaigns against caterpillars and moths to write entertainingly on eta- tietioal subjects in Chats on the Cen- sus in the Wolfville (N. S.) A.cadlari. In the last of these he shows that Can- adians are a well houeed people. "Just a Preliminary woria or two about the census iesults in the large," writes' Dr. johnson. "There are a mil- lion families inhabitating the Domin- ion, that is there were when the cen- sus of 1901 was taken. They are ideal- ly housed, for nearly every family has a house by itself for a, home. In the census returns the condition of all • families of the IDorninion was investi- gated excepting those living in the un- organized territries of the Northwest, and some unorganized districts in the Province of Quebec. • 1,618,802 fun - Mee were -studied to see hew they were housed, leaving 52,445 families of whom particulars were not obtained. Of these 1,018,302 families, 985,153 occupied each a house. There were 29,568 houses in which two families dwelt, 2,618 in eaeli of which there were three families, and 968 which sheltered four or more fam- ilies. Nearly one half Of these 985,- 153 families occupred houses having from six to ten rooms.' There were 488,786 such families or 49.6 per cent. That is, nearly 30 families in each 100 were comfortably and roomily lodged, seeing that the averagefamily in the Domirdon has about five persons, over 13 families in the hundred have five - roomed houses; over 14 have four- • roomed dwellings; about 10 have three - roomed ehelters; about 8 leave two rooms, and over in every 100 a our dwell in mansions having eleven or more rooms. These particu- lars indicate that the people of Cana- da have reaehed a :eery fair condition of living, and need not be -envious of the people of any other country. We are a people hugging the idea of home e.nd striving to secure comfortable homes." The Quaint "Hermitage." • Perhaps the quaintest summer resi- dence along the shore of Lake St. Louis is what Mr. Leary, "the choco- late man" of Montreal, is pleased to call his "old bachelor's shack" at Dixie. It is known as "The Hermitage," lies on the water's edge, and was original- ly a boat -house and stable in connec- tion with the villa, now the Country Club, lying further beak among the fol- iage with which the scene abounds. "The Hermitage" is built of wood and cOnsists of a large and a small room. A board -walk skirts the shor....e, and a 'jetty runs out.into the, water. • Nkr. Leary has transforraed tine inter- ior of the old boat -house. Bunks rang- ed abeve one another have been fixed up. There are lounges and easy chairs, and cushions galore. Chinese lanterns are strung in profusion, and these aro lit on fete night,s though a reading lamp and several old-fashioned brass ships' lamps serve ordinary purposes. Curios of Many kinds hang on the walls, and a collection of old silver is particularly interesting and decorative. At both sides of "The Hermitage," where were the broad entrances for boats and rigs, Mr .Leary has fixed up fine wire.meshes, serving the double purpose of eleiting and cooling the 4- terlor. There is an alluring Bohemian air about the whole place, and Mr. Leary's guests always hasten back. • It is probable that more summer houses like "The Hermitage," which .ls the enyy of many lake shore residents, will spring up next season, says The Montreal Standard. • Morals of Nature Study. A contemporary writer says that under the pretence of nature study the fields and woods are robbed of their treasures, flowers being taken away by the armful where a few specimens would suffice. The things look best, he say, where nature has set them. Rea- sonably interpreted this is sound eth- ics and good. sefise. Some things na- ture scatters in such profusion—dais- ies, lupine, golden rod, for instance— that they seem like a, harvest of beau- ty which it would be a sin not to reap in due season. But it is a good Aale in the school of fiatpre not to take greed- ily more than is wanted, and not ruth- lessly to destroy, moralizes The Toronto Star. - The good sportsman is oppoied to extermination, and. to the destruction of song birds and insectivorous birds. The use of the camera marks a fur- ther stage in the prOgress of human- ity, and of true appreciation of na- ture. Some of the magazines have published wonderful pictures illustrat- ing .the habits of birds and beasts. Look at a likeness of a squirrel tak- ing his breakfast on his table of pine, and compare it with the wretched ereature turning a treadmill in a cage, and You will think that centuries must have elapsed between this bar- barism and that civilization.

He always had before him a high ideal, and has been noted for his unswerv- ing integrity, devotion to duty, loyalty and honor. ' Of those who were eontemporaries of Mr. Courtney at the time of his an'- pointment as Deputy Minister of Fin- ance or Very shortly afterwards all have passed away but one, Mr. Bail - large of 'Quebec, for many years Deputy Minister of Public Works.

Chinese God in Ontario Museum. A, real Chinese god and a dozen plas- ter casts of various types of Canadian Indians are the latest additions to Curator Boyle's archaeological collec- tion at the Toe -bent° Normal School mu- seum. This particular Chinese god isn't of the Ordinary apecies one finds in chinaware• shops or Bowery joss houses. The wooden statue at the Nor- mal School, together with the earven have had an exciting and checkered career. They were taken am.ong other loot from a native temple during the last Boxer campaign. The central fig- • ure of the group represents the Chin- ese God of War, and the old fellow has evidently been through it. Under the recent veneering of champagne colored varnish there are indications of rough handling. While the soldiers were fighting over hie possession there were a few corners chipped off his figure. The Education Department, through Mr Boyle, secured the curiosity from a relative of the man who brought it to this continent. The curator now has it set up in a glass case, and all the visi- tors are greatly interested in it. His idol-ized godship himself stands about four feet high, and he is represented as bringing two diminutive enemies to bay at the end of a long sword. The entire group is carved out of some variety of soft wood, and the gnarled bark is utilized in the make-up. • Dangers of Haste. A physician in The Lancet warns his readers against the hasty expres- sion of opinion by doctors about the nature of their patients' ailments At a clinic was a subject with a -murmur in his heart and with one of his eyes dilated. The peculiar appearance of the eye seemed .to ha._,,ve some con- nection with the cardiac affection, but various opinions were expressed by the different students as to what the pre- cise nature of this relation could be. The discussion was just becoming in- teresting when the patient reniarked that his strange looking eye was made of glass. Figured In Orange Parades.
