It took place in the building on the Parliament Hill. The Premier was Sir John A Macdonald, and the leader of the Opposition was Alex, Mackenzie. With few exceptions the men of that day have all passed over to the great majority, and today another body of men are facing the greatest crisis in the history of Canada. To -day the Opposition is nearly all made up of men of the one province. In that other day Quebec stood shoulder to shoulder with the others, and now she sits apart, It is interesting to the. onlooker of old days, to see the radical difference in the class of men who then and now represent Quebec. Formerly the most eloquent speakers were those from this province. To -day they are only distinguished by the rancour they display, the petty jealousy they exhibit, and the disloyal utterances they give voice to. No'matter what the subject they have a grievance— these spoiled children of the Confederacy. They have made themselves a cap which they wear and are irritated because it fits so well. They do not want woman suffrage, As one member put it, he wanted to be .master and the woman's place was the home. They will have no daylight saving be - Cause #t is a Government measure, and therefore to be rejected. They object to food control because they want to show their independence of all attempt at meeting existing difficulties. To hear them one would think it a lot of ' boys squabbling over a game of marbles. Not Many Years Ago Nobody swatted the 8y. Nobody had appendicitis. Eggs were 10c a dozen. Butter was 14c a lb. Cream was 5c a pint, Choice steak 10c per lb. Hardwood 81.50 per double cord. Maple Syrup 81.00 per gallon. You never heard of a "tin Lizzie."

The BROWN is the richest, deepest and glossiest you ever cast your eyes on—a charming boot made of the finest Vici Kid. The GREY is as beautiful as beautiful can be—neither too light in color nor yet too dark. and is made of the same fine Vici Kid stock, These two shoes are the equal of any shoe made, they are the very same quality as are sold in cities for from $15.00 to 818 00 per pair, You simply cannot buy better, in fact, better shoes are not made.
