M'AN'S INHUMANITY TQ MAN
(Robert Burns)
Many sharp the num/ons ills
Interwoven with our frame!
More pointed till we make ourselves
Regret, morose awl shame
And man, whose heaven:erected faoe
The ensiled of love ndoril—
Mou's inhunusuity o man
Makes oottutlese thousands Mourn.
See yonder poor cnerlabored wight,
abjeote mean and vile.
Who begs' brother of the each
To give him leave to ;oil;
414M see hie lordly feIlow•worm
The poor pecatou spurn,
lannsindfni though a weeping wife
And helpless offeeting mourn.
It I'm designed yon lording's elave,
By Netureas law eleelirned.
Wny WWI WI ZUGOOLICIOUt wish
E'er planted in my mind?
IL not, why am 1 subject to
Hes cruelty or sworn?
Or why has mau the will and power
To make his fellow mourn?
, Yet, let not this too much, my son,
Disturb thy breast;
Tads partial view of inmate kiad
Is eurely not the beet!
The poor oppressed honest man
Had never, sure been born,
Had there not been some recompense
To comfort those that mount.
Gas In The Stomach
Belchiug and that sense of fulness so
often experienced after eating is caused
by tbe formation of gas, The stomach
fails to perform its farictibne and the
food ferments. Chamberlain's Stomach

order. They aid digestion and streng-
then and invigorate the stomaoh aud
bowels„ For sale by all Druggists.

The Straight Story
Each of these famous classics is retold in 5,000 -words—making a newspaper
page with the illustrations. For this work a writer has been secured who has suc-
ceeded in
Retaining the characteristics and charm of the classics, and
Making each one a, fascinating tale in itself, that will be sum to hold the
reader quite by its own merit.
Their Uraiversal Appeal
Everyone wants to know enough to be able to converse about the masterpieces
of literature, but only comparatively few persons have time or patience to read
novels of so great length as are almost all the classics. This form meets this require-
ment ideally. After presenting the list to all kinds and conditions of people,—
stenographers, office managers, Mailing clerks, bookkeepers, shop girls, artists, re-
porters, merchants, lawyers and business men of all grades from self-made men to
college graduates—we find that the titles of these classics are singularly familiar
to all, but the stories themselves are practically scaled books.
Nearly every one of all these people said one of two things :
"1 dinned into So -and -So, hut never got a ehanee to finish it."
"Of course I simply must read these stories. I've tried for yoars to get the
thne." •
•
No other paper in Canada can publish these stories until after they
have appeared in the Weekly Globe and Canada Farmer. Do not
miss them. No modern writer could give you anything better, and their
appearance is sure to yield universal satisfaction.
Another of the Bright Thing's.
These stories are only one of the many good things in store for our
readers during 1997.

With greet regret we have to record the sudden death in May last of Mr.
Theodore G. Brough, the late General Manager, who had been in the service of
the Bank continuously since 1875. He was the Chief Executive Officer for seven
years, daring which short tinie he accomplished much for the development and
welfare of the Imitation.
Mr. C. A Bogert, Manager af the Montreal Branch for eight years, and who
entered the Bank more than twenty-five years ago, was appointed to succeed him.
On account of the continued expansion in the business of the Bank, your
Directors have decided that it is an opportune time to issue the remaining
one million dollars of authorized Capital Stock; and, having in view future re-
quirements which may reasonably be expected, have approved of a ty-aw to be
submitted for your consideration at the Annual Meeting, which provides for a
futher increase in the Capital Stook to the extent of one million dollars. This
will make the total anrhorized Capital five million dollars.
Yon will also be asked to consider a by-law increasing the number of Direc-
tors from seven to nine, whicb it is thought to be advisable owing to the diversity
of our interests throughout Canada, and the gradual extension of our operations.
During the twelve months jnst closed Branches of the Bank were establisbed
at the following points, and, when expedient, desirable sites were purchased and
suitable offices erected :—In the Province of Ontario, at Chatham, Dresden, Peter-
borough, Tilbury, Windsor, and in Toronto, at the corners of Avenue road and
Davenport road, and Queen street and Broadview avenue; in the Province of
Alberta, at Calgary and Edmonton, and at Regina, Sask.
In addition we have to inform you that in Deeeember last the private bank-
ing business of Messrs. John Curry & Company, at Windsor was acquired under
terms advantageous to the Shareholders, which transaction included the purchase
of a commodious building, well situated in this important centre.
It was found necessary to provide larger premises for our North End Branch,
Winnipegaand for this purpose a valuable property has been secured.
The Directors, following their ninal custom, examined the Securities and
Cash Reserves of the Bank as on December 31st, 1906, and found them to be
correct; they also verified the Head Office Balance Sheet, including all accounts
kept with Foreign Agents.
Every Office of the Bank has been carefully inspected during the past twelve
raonths, and each Branch has been visited by the General Manager since his
- appointment in May last.
s
The Report was adopted.
E. B. OSLER,
President.
By-laws were passed increasing the number of Directors from seven to nine,
and providing for an increase of $1,000,000 in the Capital Stook, which will make
the total authorized Capital of the Bank $5,000,000.
The thanks of the Shareholders were tendered to the President, Vice -Presi-
dent and Directors for their services during the year, and to the General Man-
ager and other Officers o, the Bank for the efficient performance of their re•
spective duties.
The following gentlemen were elected Directors for the ensuing year:—
Messrs. A. W. Austin. W. R. Brook, James Carruthers, R. 3. Christie, T. Eaton,
J. J. Foy, K C„ M.L A., Wilmot D. Matthews, A. M. Nanton, and E. B. Oster, M.P.
At a subsequent meeting of the Directors, Mr. E. B. Osler, M,P., was elected
Preeident, and Air. Wilmot D. Matthews, Vice-Preeident, for the ensuing term.
