This is easily understood when in the herd of bond investment alone tho,' United States purchased to. the extent of `$211,956,758 in 1924; ap- proximately $175;000,000 In 1926; and over $76,000,000 iu the first half • of 1926.. United States capitalistsfirst began to exhibit a keen interest in Canadian investments about•1900. At that time the amount of 'United States' capital invented in the Dominion. wee esti- mated to be but $150,000,000. Invest• meats continued to. be made at a heavy rate thereafter until the figure. had by 1913 increased some 400 per. oent. and amounted to. $760,000;000. At. the outburst of the war British capital. , which had up to that .point been the most important factorin Canadian de- ' veldt/mane' Vas e`veldpmant,'Vas estimated to be stand- ing at $2,600,000,000, or more than three times that of American. Government Bonds and ,Industrial Securities. is the post-war period United States. capital has been very largely lnstru mental in furthering many phases of Canadian development' and has . in- creased at a remarkable rate whilst British investment stands practically in the same place it did in 1914. This has coustitute•d one of the finest- ad- vertisbinents of rhes fundamentally sound condition of the Dominion and faith in_herfuture., It is significant that while the United States has made ,such heavy purchases of Canadian • bond securities, those on :the part of Great Britain amounted. In 1923 to .about only, $2,600,000; in 1924 to .$3,- 750,000; in. 1025 to $28,000,000; whilst to date in 1926 there have been none made.' Since the outbrealt of the war the in- crease in American investment in Can- ada Has been equal. to 276 per cent., or greater than that of American in- vestment in_ any other country with the exception of Cuba. Thisinvest- ment has taken many forms, industrial securities nad direct investment mak- ing aking up the greater part of the total and outweighing the purchase of Gov- ernment bonds: The former repre- sents -59 per cent. of all investment and the latter 41 per cent.

In the same •connection art the pre - seat time when there is evidence of a revival of interest an the part of United States farmers in Canadian ]buds, It is interesting to note the rimount of money brought into Canada • by United States citizens settling in the Dominion, 'In the past twelve years, according to the Department of Imnligeation and Colonization, this has amounted to $163,470,553,.. an • average . of approximately -513,625,000 •per. year, The outstanding year/in the period was that of 1912-13, when the. farmer .movement was at its peak, in which twelve months settlers from - the -United States brought 525,795,545 into the Dominion.

Doctor Goodrich was buried beside hls wife and many another devoted missionary -worker, including .the martyrs of the Boxer year, in the osiwetery-:at Tung Chou, One who was present writes to the. Cougrega- tionelist of the impressive scene. "As rho group following the casket approached the cemetery, the sun sank in clear golden light behind the purple Mils, and we heard the voices Of young girls, clear and sweet, sing- ing one of the hymns 'Doctor Goodrich translated. We found them °Standing on either side of the green aisle through which we passed teethe open grave. Over all was the solemn mel- low light from the western hills. "Here- the Chinese took charge of I d. Foreigners stood their beloved gn quiet while hymns and prayers and the single tribute were offered.

"That broken Chinese voice had pro- claimed this am •hour of consecration for thos-e who were gathered together in that platae,and a time of holy triumph of one who might have said with .Paul, 'For me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.' And it was also very full of the simple human fellow- ship Which Doctor Goodrich loved" The young people from the -schools were there as well as their elders. Old friends were there, and little Chinese children played about in the green gloom and called to each other in their high sweet voices, and no one forbade them. Village women were there and men burdened with heavy biternation- al responsibilities. They were all as one in grief and thanksgiving and praise." It was a fitting ends to a beautiful life.

One Reason. The following is told of Mark Twain: They were standing Beside the cradle, gazing 'fetidly down at their first-born, and the proud 'mother, in a burst of enthusiasm, exclaimed; "Oh, Sam, don't you rove 'the little darling:" • "Well," ,came the .deliherate reply. "I respect it for its noble • father's sake", 'Whether or not it was the silvery voice alone of a pretty telephone operator in the Loudon offices' of the Canadian Pacific Railway, that wafted Robert White's spirit into the roman- tic realms of matrimony, ie not de- flnitely known; White, however, who is a member of the staff of the pas- senger department, has succumbed to the charms of Miss Dorothy Cook. She has been merrily answering calla in the phone rooui at the top of. the same budding for some time. In the coulee of his duties, Air, White has nefm'ally been compelled to ring Miss Cook daily. Some time ago 'Ile decided to "ring her" in a dif- ferent manner. Miss Cook "answered the call" and the result is seen in the above photograph which shows, Mr, and Mrs, White being presented with a lucky horseshoe immediately after their weddin.g which took place at Fulham, London, recently. THE TRIALS OFMIDDLE-AGE Much of the Suffering Women Endure Can be Avoided. Duty. How strange a thhtg is duty! They tell us that "self-preservation is the first. Law of life," yet hardly a day Biasses that does not record some act of heroism or self-sacrifice in which men deliberately ignore that first law, and smilingly lay their Lives on the alter of Duty. Vice Admiral C. B. Miller, of the British Navy, died recently in Ang- le -ad. His death recalled an incident of the World War that had.. not pre- viously been published. In August, 1916, Admiral, then Captain, Mi6'er, was in command of the light cruiser Nottingham, when the vessel was tor- pedoed. A very brief examination allowed that she must sink la a few minutes. At once all the officers stood aside, and the boats and life rafts were filled with men who could not swim,, or were poor swimmers. The officers then paraded on the quarter- deck, and in the order of eemdority, from the youngest midshipman to .the commander, saluted the captain, shook his hand and slipped over the reit in their ilfebelts , The captain stood alone on the setttdn•g deck. When at last it was almost submerged, he gave a final loolt,saluted and in full uni- form leaped into the sea. He remain- ed floating for several hours, swim- ming about, his cop still on his head, encouragdmg hie men, and was one of the last to be rescued. Every woman approaches middle age with considerable anxiety, be- cause elle knows this is the time of her life when trivial- ailments may be the first signs- of trials and sufferings to come,' She fears the headaches, backaches, lassitude and other ' dis- tressing 'wereltnesses that burden the life oe so many women at this period. Much of the anxiety and suffering that assail women approaching mid- dle age can be avoided. This has been proved by thousands of happy, virile women who have re'lled at this time on the health -help' given by Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills', To the middle-aged. weman the one thing necessary to carry her through her years of trial is rich, red blood, Because of their direct aetfon - on the blood, Dr, Wil- liams' Pink Pills aro the one remedy praised by women for women's' needs.
