TUE WIN1iuA TIME;, El.1;; letteeOTV, Prieene to Awn Poore m7 ort THURSDAY. DEC. 26, 1902. NOTES AND COMMENTS Mr. Griffin, the C. P. R. laud Commis •ouer says th t upto the cud of dune. M.i , a this year: Ms company sold 1,000,000 acres of land, and the sales this year have been three tittles those of last year. He estiunites that laud has increased in value 50 per cent. since last year. The extent to which the wee} it has xevived the pea crop north is indicated by the fact that Bruce in 1901 bad over a million bushels of peas,Sitncoo. 921.705 bushels and Grey 805,411. The nearest approach to these figures was in Huron with 594,000. York which grew 650,000 bushels in 1891, produced 202,412 last year. New Zealand also voted on the liquor question this mouth. The total number of votes cast in favor of prohibition was 100,000 in favor of the recluotion of li- censes 13.1,000, and in favor of the con- tinuance of the present system 149,000, This boll will involve the closing of nearly 200 out of the 1,000 liquor bars there are in New Zealand. The returns for the past year show an increase in the number of commitments in Ontaria for druulenuess. The total was 2,522 last year,but during 11101.2 the number, it is said, will be 2,700. Most of the increases are credited to London, Toronto and Sarnia, while at Ottawa, Sudbury and Hamilton there were de- creases. Some 29 jails reported an in- crease and 22 a reduction. This year 23,500,000 bushels of grain were shipped from Fort William. This is the record. More Canadian vessels 1 . swill be required. ,r every ,cat to keep up with the improvement It the railway facilities between Winnipeg and the head of lake navigation. The Govern- ment has a strong argument for the ex- tension of the Intercolonial to Georgian Bay to take advantage of the growing traffic. A letter written by Sir Wilfrid Laurier to a Medical friend in this city, received this mozn ug, conveys the gratifying assurance that he has practically regain- ed his accustomed health, and is in every respect himself again. It is equal- ly gratifying to learn that his friends see the change as much as he feels it. The Premier leeks to returning to Cana- da at the end of the month. That mis ohievtous individual "Rumor" has, of late, been making capital out of the health of the Premier, but this report, "signed by his owe hand," ought to he convincing. -Ottawa Free Press. That Popular Majority. The exploded fallacy that the Ross Government had a popular majority of seven or eight thousand against it at the general election is being revived. It has been shown to be incorrect. Fur- ther, it has been pointed oat time and again that it is the constituencies which count as to the representation of parties in the Legislature. The election, as a matter of fact, is now incomplete. There are four constituencies vacant,the declaration of the coarts in three cases being to the effect that there were no elections. Another vacancy was created by death. The Government has, out of the ninety-four cousnitaencies for which the seats are still field, a majority of two constituencies. Friends of the Government ere long will have the op- portunity of endeavoring to increase both the number of members who will snpfortthe Gavel =teat and also the popelar vete in its favor. There is every reason to believe that they will do both, and it is not preertble that our Conservative friends who are finding fault will be satisfied if that should take Deaths of Millionaries. London, Rug., ileo, Mat -During the present year 206 perst'ps have died, lean. lugestates l v 0 each, est to veleta at over $600, 00 en , the aggregate being 0290,225,700. The average age of these persons was nearly 73 years; one-fourth cif theta were 80 or over and six were over 00. The Chant ocher of the Exchequer reaped death duties amounting to $92,008,370. For the most part tide wealth has. been blow. ly gained by peole who made carefill investments during their long lives. Little trace could be found of fortunes which had been q iickly acquired by speculation. A, futeher analysis shows that were five estates of over $5.000,000, seventeen between $2,500,000 aud $5.000- 000, twenty-four of front $1,500,000 to $2,500,000, thirty of front $1,000,000 to $1,500,000, forty of .front $7,500,000 to $1,000,000, and eightynine of from $500,000 to $750,000,,,The death last Mon- day of Col. Harry 12CCalmont,, whose estate probably amotaents to $15,000,000, will be another lrak''vest for the lord chancellor. The Habitof Lying. How does one become a liar -that is to say, how does the child discover a lie and habitually make use of it? We can admit that at the beginning there is ab- solute sincerity. The child through all its first year neither lies nor dissmulates. Its sentiments, its .desires, tranrlate themselves into words and acts. Its body is the constant and perfect expres- sion of its inmost being. Such is the starting point -sincerity, absolute tran- sparency. There is a Multitude of little lies tolerated which we treat as pardon- able. We tell the domestic to say we are not at home when we are: we com- pliment people to their faces and crit- icise them when they are gone; we say we are happy to see soar one and direct- ly after,;speak of having been annoyed. No morels necessary. Thex e ant le has P been given. We lie to the child itself. We are pressed by his many embarras- ing questions, and in order to free our- selves from the embarrasment, reply with what tis frequently a falsehood. Some fine day lie discovers the truth, and the evil is done. reie 'gravest case is when the child is taken as,nn accoln- pliece in a lie, or when' is mother tells him. "Above all do not ,,ell your papa." This is" the ruin of all morality. The third stage is the first encounter of the child with society, the first shock with social life. The child who tells all he knows, sees, and'hesrs,all he would better have left unsaid, is called the "infant terrible." His parents do not tell him to lie, but they tell hint it is not necessary, to tell all he thinks. This is extremely serious, as it teaches the child that he cannot show himself as he is, This is the revelation of the lie, ob- ligatory. Above all, among his com- rades, he quickly learns. to dissimulate, because if he is naive --expresses- all his joys, pains. desires -they; Make sport of him; nay, worse, they abuse his confi- dence; the hopes, projects, which he has confided to them, he some day sees, used against hint. Thus the impossibility of living with- out lying is revealed tot'jhim. Society excuses certain forms of lying, which are inspired bye feeling of politeness, modesty and shame. The child becomes a liar because all the world about him lies. The distinction between the liar, and the man of sincerity is.only relative. There are in reality only two categor- ies -those who content themselves with the lies exacted by social life, and those who have habituated themselves to lying more than society wishes, to lie, because of some personal interest. An import- ant cause in the development of lying in children, is the employment of exces- sive and ill-advised punishments. The child who becomes a liar is the one who lives in perpetual terror of reproaches, humiliation or strokes. The lie, for hint is a supreme resource. place.

As long as et pterohaut can keep his business on the increase by the use of advertisiug, jest so long ho should be eoustently willing to increase his adver. tising, When the business i4 nt.a stands, still or in danger of going becltwerd, it is time to stop to consider the whole scheme of business with a view to gett- ing more and better returns,. not alone from his advertising, but front his. en- tire investment,. .!'here are times. when a careful consideration, of the deteriora- tion of the business etiel a careful sewn= i ifor the case will o m 1to t _ uc put u d t g the bad feateres•in the batlkgronud and put the other features to the fore. The • business man should' consider . carefully the advantages he epuld claim for his store, and should be willing to tell about those advantages so elersisteutly and en- thueiestically that the people would soon listen and be convinced. People admire enthusiasm and are anxious to mingle with the enthnsiaetic. r When the mer- chant with a business `gets the impres- sion established is his e'community that he is doing all in his p \ver to buy what the people want and to eel' the goods at margins which will p l unit living profits, but which are not exonitant, the buyers will come to look to tit merchant for his daily talks on daily needs and will believe --if they have no reason to doubt. It pays the merchantcreate the idea that his store is run for large volume of business at a narrow Margin rather than to corral a large profit on small sales. The growth of the business depends on the treatment of customers, and the ad- vantage is in the spreading of the store reputation so that many will enjoy the advantages of trading and be willing o tell their friends of thefatore and its at- tractions. Merit is the, surest means for inducing larger business. Self A Burden to and ul Others.

Considerable evidence was taken, and the ultimate result of the investigation will be hard to conjecture at•titepieteent time. The points raised at the meeting were as follows The present guards were con- demned by all, as being quite useless for the purpose for which they are intend- ed; that the old pit guard was safest the Consider- ed e , t guard, but this guard rail- way companies refuse to use, , as they say, if et car leaves the track it is likely to drop into ono of these guards, caus- ing great loss and damage to the com- patty's property. Of course the question here rises as to who is least able 'to stand the loss -the farmer who has his stock killed by a cattle guard, which is useless in turning his cattle from danger, or the railroad Company'. We understand a number of guards halts been submitted to the engineer for trial, and he purposes to test them by putting a number of cattle in an enclosure with a guard at a supposed opening. What these esperi- tnents will bring remains to be seen. WANTED-•PAtTTIFTTI, PEitSON TO TRAY - el for well established Stoned in a few counties Palling on retail imerchante and agents.
