This is the season of the yeer when
the list of marriage announcements in-

summer are fulfilled in the weddings of
the autumn, and in all the circles of
society we have abundant end practical
proof that the cry about the failure of
marriage, which Was beeu raised by a
few pessimistic philosophers, both men
and women, is not heeded by healthy
minds, and does not cheek thegrowth of
the sentiment which results in matri-
mony. It may be true that there has
been a decline in the marriage, retain:at
highly civilized coenbries during recent
years. That is a matter of statistics,
which are indisputable. But because
there has been such a decrease we have

desire for marriage has lessened propor-

means simply that more people are un-
able to gratify the desire for mating than
under the older social conditions. The

The Meltinley Bill has affected the
price of eggs in this country but little,
yet the Toronto Globe works a scheme
to give Canada a alap
"Washington, D. C., Oct. 22"--Sarnue1
D. Pate, United States consul at Port
Sarnia, Ont., transmits to Secretary Blaine
an extract from a Toronto paper which
shows that since the passage of the Mc-
Kinley Bill the Canadian farmers have
been seeking a market in Eastland for their
eggs, with but poor success, as many of
the eggs spoil in transit. It also shows
that one consignment of 34,500 eggs, which
cost 11 cents a dozen in Canada, yielded
but 75 cents profit to the exporter.
Why continue this policy of crying
down Canada? The Globe knows full
well that Canadian produce dealers
enite in declaring that they have found
no difficulty in eecuring a profitable
market for their eggs in Great Britain.
The Globe's course is a peculiar one.
Mr. D. D. Wilson of Seaforth. one of
the largest egg dealers and shippers in
Canada,was one of those who disbelieved
in the idea of an English market. But
this dealer seems to have changed his
mind, for he is now in Glasgow, Scot.
lend, where he declared to a reporter of
the Glasgow Mail that consignees in that
city had, on the day of the interview,
12,000 !dozen Canadian eggs on the
Clyde, all sold in advance without the
purchaser having sampled a box (this by
reason :of the excellent reputation" of
Canadian eggs) ; ate:inhale tinny were
selling his (Wilson's) eggs "for country
eggs at two shillings a dozen." • This
same gentleman says that eggs will keep
fresh without salt for six weeks'which
is ample time to make shipments to the
furthest points in Great Britain from
the remotest parts of Canada. To the
same reporter he gave information to
the effect that there has not been any
great development of the egg trade with-
in the lest year, as many of the farmers
had killed off, through fear of the Mc-
Kinley tariff affecting the business.
Rowever, Mr. Wilson' thought the prices
which have been going on will induce
farmers to re -commence the trade in
eggs, and he would not be surprised to
see this branch of trade opening up in a
way that many little dream of. Canadian
eggs seE better in Great Britain than
they do iri the United States. Rurrah
predecessor he will fill the poen= accept-
ably to all parties.

TWO•STIIIICE.—The out -door household
work in summer suola as that of the sum-
mer-kiteheu, washing and ironing, is a sort
of makeshift with many mishaps as burns
and scalds. But Mr Jim Heinemann, Mid.

true remedy. He says • ',I scalded

The trial of Daniel Whale for the murder
of his wife at Mitchell, ewas concluded Fri-
day at the Stratford Assizea, Tee jury re-

Mend me guilty. I will lio.ve to abide by
the verdict." His Lordsbip in pronouncing
sentence said he could not see how tbe jury

as to preclude the theory that simply fall-
ing off the lounge would inflict the injuries
A diepute evidently arose between the two,

ed the iniuriere Then followed the terrible
words :—" The sentence of this Court upon
you, Daniel Whale'is that you be confined
to the Provincial Penitentiary for the re-
mainder of your natural life." The prison-
er seemed dazed at the severity n.f the sen-
tence and it twitohing about the mouth
showedthat it required an effort to restrain
the teare. The prisoner was immediately
