The closing tvords of the foregoing paragraph are among the tritr;t ut- terances of the modern pr. ache-. But they need to bo repeated over and over again to the weary 111x- pl appointed, dejected multitudes of pleasure seekers of our dny.

It exists just as truly to the bosom of the ascetic as in the bosons of the so-called man of pleasure. But. the sway in osiers happiness is found -that is the question.

But do not thorn men illustrate for us the great psychological fat that human hagi- pincss vitriol according to the differ- ent stages in the evolution of tho soul?

To tho public of the Dominion of Canada: Canada possesses one of the lnrsest ureas of virgin forest of any country in tho world and is ranked by Eur.t- pear experts fist, or among the first, of the important sources of ilio world's timber supply for the future. The preservation of the streams in perennial and constant now, which is largely controlled by the for- ests on the watersheds, will have an important influence on the industrial and agricultural development of t ho Pon►in}on. 'rho expansion of our electrical and mechanical industries trill be regulated to a great extent by water. which forms ,the gt eatest sonrco of power in all Coen!! 0 , and some of our vestern distticts are dc - pendent oa irrigation to onset tho 9uc'cess of agricultural operations. In all tho older provinces tho clear- ing of tho soil has been carried to such nn extent that the ill effects on the water supply rend on agriculture aro clearly mmarked, while on the W118- tel.n prairies the need of sheltering trees for houses and fields io seriees- ly felt by the settlers. Tho early construction of the Transcontinental Railway, end of other railways, through our northern forested districts and the consequent opening of thoso districts to general trntltc, will incrcnse rho (larger front fro which has already been a most acture agent of destruction. These conditions are not new; they have from time to time received on't- )lc attention, and during tho Session Just cloeed Parliament authorleed the summoning of a convention for the more thorough discussion of She same.

To make it, first pick the grapes from the bunch off the vines, which is much easier than handling tho fruit trier, and also gives the picker the benefit of the open air.

A great improvement in doing up linen is this stock: Dissolve ono ounce of gum arabic i.`;ji half a pint of warm water, add Ono tablespoon- ful of tho solution to qt. of swarm water, wring out the linen in the mix- ture.
