"Whet Is the matter? Ha.s Frye been gall- ing you down for something?" .

"I am paid so much a month 'for the present,' as he put it when I went there, and I certainly shall leave nit as soon as I see any chance of bettering myself." "That being the case, I see no reason why you cannot entertain the proposi- tion I have decided to make you," said the merchant, "which is that you sever your relations with Mr. Frye between now and the first of the year, and then take- hold and see what you can do in looking after my legal matters.

The demand foe Cordage Of all kinds is vapidly increasing, owing among other causes to the develop/tett of the pulp induetry i ntorice Quebec, and otber martof Canada, the hne ratmse lumbering and mining ever- ations carried. on in :Ontario, Britieb Columbia ond the Territories, the great expansion of =cattle ranches and hum% in the Nortb.west, and the increased trade carried on on the Great Lakes and the Inland Water of Canada, all demanding n constant- ly increasing quantity of :cordage of all kinds. In addition to the Canadian mai- we are in a position to vont- pete on equal terms with the Amor - loan manufacturers in the Xinited States on that -class of twbio that enters !their port free of duty.. The consuinption of bindee twine io the United States is estimated at 150,000,000 lbs, annually, and of this it !is admitted that about -fifty pee centcan be admitted h.ee of duty.

A. most remarkable record." These lieereased dividends may to; some extent be accounted for by profits made on the raw material. Other instanceds might be tiwen ef the large profits made by binder twine manufacturers, such as afeCer- inacks, Deering and Pkyznouth's, and a stockholders financiaily interest- ed in using and eelling their output, The company proposes to establish Local Advisory Boards in different parts of the country, in those local- ities where the stook is sold, com- posed of leading and responsible me* who become stockholders, in the = company.
