I stood upon the ocean’s sandy beach, And with a. reed I wrote upon the _

Sand these words:

°‘Agnes, I love thee.” But the winds came and the waves Rolled mountains high,

And blotted out the fair impre=sion. Cruel waves! treacherous sand ! fragile

reed! ` ‘ '

No longer will I trust thee, But from the highest mountain peak 1’l1 pluck the tallest pine,

And, dipped in the crater of Vesuvius,

With it l’ll write

Upon the high and burnished heavens

These tender words:

For their business relations with the

public is a high one.

Good examples of this are to be found

in the class of work they turn out,’ and I would like to see any doggoned waves wash that out.

MEN WILL RBSENT IT.

Our American exchanges record the

t`ormation of an association among the maiden laidieslof Bridgeport, Connect- icut, all the members' of which are pledged not to receive it fourth even- in_<_r’.\- visit from ii. man who has not on the third visit. or earlier, asked the

pfivil<»_-,go to speal: to papa. Tim _-tit-it-ty is known as tho “Anti Chair- \Ym'iiiiiig bkiciety of i\lu.rriageable

,§ }.'i.,iti¢-tis." It is tiicir protest against . the alleged prevulcnt practice of,

young ba.c`uelors and more elderly \vitio\\'ers taliiiiq up too much of the prrtious- time ot eligible maiden ladies in inerc aimless talk, with no serious Object of niatrimony behind it. This practice has been irreverently termed “chaii--warming," and is said to have been so prevalent in all countries as to prove it to be a represhensible trait in masculine character.

° There can be no doubt as to the

great value of a. young lady’s “private time,” as Polonius would say, between the date or ber debut and the age at which she hopes to have secured a. life partner. In some cases it may also be admitted that a candidate for her favpr and her hand and fortune, may have consumed too many valu- able evenings in the pleasant prelimi- nary negotiations. There may have been just cause of complaint, in which mouths have run into years and years into decades, with nothing better or mote definite than chair-warming as the result. But such are rare and unusual cases. The rule is that courtship is not needlessly prolonged, and in some cases at least it has been too speedily concluded by a hasty marriage and a. later repentance on one or both sides.

But lest the anti-chair-wa.rming

movement should spread too fast and too far, it may be well to remind the marriageable maidens and widows that men have their rights in these matters as well as the gent-ler sex. Courtship is an enterprise that ought not to be too much hurried. A man cannot be expected to choose a wife as quickly as he would select a necktie. And when the young gallant, in his first serious venture into the matrimonial market, is forced to make his selec- tion from amongst a score, or perhaps a hundred of most puzzlingly fascinat- ing creatures, he may not always feel equal to a. decision after only three chair warming visits. For he ought to have time not only to take stock of the good qualities and charms of one of their number, but also to have space for some comparison between one and another. ‘ `

For these reasons we believe that

the young and other marriageable men of P. E. Island would resent the in-

' tioduction of any anti-chair-warming

society here, especially if it should adopt a three night limit.

EDITORIAL NOTES-

It is not usual that a gentleman is

arrested for offering his escort to a

' lady, but that is what happened to a

young man in Holland a few days ago .He was dressed in a bicycle suit and the young lady to whom he offered his arm was Wilhelmina,Queen of Holland. She was leaving her carriage to enter a railway train, and the young wheelman said he merely desired, out of politeness, to escort her to the car.

The Pope has, it appears, advised

President Faure to withdraw Mar- chand from Fashoda in order to avoid war. This is good advice and it will, as it is no doubt intended, make it ‘easier for the French government to recede from its untenable position. But it also appears that in withdraw-

TRANSPORTATION _ PROBLEMS-

' ° _@11-

The diiiiculiiw in shipping perish-

able food products to Great Britain have been the long d stance, deterioration in transit and the cost of freight. As a rulethe transportation charges have been rt asonable. The freight charges from points in Cai ada to Great Briain on line food prrducts are v. very small proportion of their value to ite firruers here. As a rule the actual freight charges on cheese shipped from Onicii: and Qubec, between eznc shipping sta- tioi nearest to the factory and ttc ports of London, VBri§to‘, Liverpool or Glas- gow, do not exceed tive or six per cent of the valuc cf ite rhccsc as sold at the factory. The ave rage freight charges on creamery buttcr,with cold storage. as a rule do not ext e-»d four per cent of the value of the product.These figures refer to transportation charges cnly and not to auycharges for insurance or commis- sion in selling. The scrt of transporta- tion fcriarm products is one of the very important questions affecting the profits of the farmer. Au improvement in the ordinary roads whereby the iarmercan take a larger load to market at a less cost from tear and wear of horses, har- ness and wagcnjs of advantage to him. The same applies to the conveyance ol products by railway and steamship to their ultimate destination.-Proi. James W. Robertson.
