rent appearance, that the Government would have to take oygr the construction, and if it became a part ol the Grand Tmmnk Pacific system, it would mean discrimination against al) other interests.The gentleman spoken to on the mbject said : \u201cThe handing over of the bridge to the Grand Trunk Pacilc as a link bind ing system was serious enough to contemplate, but if the terminals were elso given .to the same corporation Ît would be stfil more serious.If the bridge eat under the control of the G.T.P.the Railway Commission can eqeilv prevent discrimination, but if the terminals are also ligked with the same interests it will be altogether another thing.The Grand Trunk Pacific could not block the traffic of other interests on the bridge, but they could easily find ae to dose Vn terminals it ey found it to ir mivantage te do 3, and the mood should evar weiss their will power.It is possible that no rach unfair course would ever be resorted to, but it is wise that such a possibili should be guarded against in time, therefore the Government should mpet the railway and steamship interssts in conference as soon as possible to talk the matter over, and have an important plan drafted that would permit of no obstacle to block the wheels of commerce by Any one individual interest.It is probable that the present Bridge Company will never complete the work they have commenced and with in such a satisfactory manner, and it is said thas either & new terminal company, composed of all the railway and steamship interests will be found, or the Government will take over the res- \u2018ponsibility for the completion of the prospective work.The objection to the formation of a New company to carry out and com- plate the terminal scheme lise in the obligatign that might be imposed, Tf the company would be obliged to find the latest means to carry out the work, it would mean that no new RR would be formed.flovernment have already contributed to all public works eonstruct.ed in every part of Canada in the public intereat, and naturally the same is expected of them in the case of Quebec, However, the frst consideration ie 8 conference between the Government and all reilway and stenmship inter.esta to arrive at some understanding in respect to the plan of construction and al the same time safeguard al! interests against discrimination.The second conrideration would be A dissolution \u2018of the present Board of Hnrbor Commissioners, and the appointment in their stead of à commission commosed af three or five experte, who wanld vepresent the rail way, steamship and all other com mercial intereate impartially.The Quebec Bridge Compane.into which is merged the old Terminal Company.can not possibly build up the river front from the nassenger station et the Champlain Market with the Wecessary cocks, ste., with the money, @ present, at their dizposal.Besides their obligations do not hind them eonsequently & much larger scheme than the present will have to ba adopted with all ite obligations that will require & much larger financial backing.The Government have guaranteed the OQuehee Bridge Crmrany honds ton 27.0000.and the Bauk of Montreal je advancing the comnany 20 sent of the money, or %3.004,000, holding back 20 per cent, no doubt to safe KOCH, LAUTEREN & CO.FRANKFORT BRSABLISHRD 1710 SHIPPERS OF STANDARE RAINE and MOSELLE WINES t= * \\ LAW, YOUNG.& CO., Nyatreal, a Chponicle representa- | bri TERMINALS | guard iation, snd chargi in | terest only\u2019 on the amount advaniond.This sum of money, large as it ap per will not suffice te complete the uebeo - bridge and its branch railway from Victoria Cove to Champlais Magket, with terminal arrangements In fact, ids said, among those whd have figu on the matter, that the ; Bridge Company will have to receivt more aid from Xhe Dominjon Govera ment, In the meantime some plan foc th?future must be thought out and actes upon without andus delay.The \u2018Grand Trunk Pacific will be completed from Winnipeg to Quebec in five years.and the port of Quebec must be gol ready fer the traffic it is destined tr ng.The whole river, frontage from the Pointe-a-Carcey wharf to SHlery Cove will have to be built up, and equip pd with proper docks, elevators, {lreight sheds and oold storage ware (houses that will have to be erected, together with the laying out of yards and spreading of amet work of tracks and sidings, which will absorb both time and money, and it will be seen that there is very little room for procrastination.It is therefore advisable that the Government should meet the railway and steamship men concerned with, as little delay as is possible to discuss the situation and como to a practical understanding in regard to it, which ir i to inaugurate a new era of prosperity jin the whole commerce of C , in which the port of Quebec is to figure as an important factor and the city of Quebec to share.\u2014\u2014 PERSONAL GOSSIP.Miss A.Curry, G.E.Curry, Pittsburg, Pa.;

be without occupation, but the great industries which make use of lumber would be peralyzed.Tress must be cut down and ought to be cut down, not only for commercial and industrial uses, but also for the geod of other growing trees, and all that the scientific forester asks is that the cutting should be done judiciously.does not look to the future cuts down all his forests at onde, whilo the forester cuts the trees so as to make it a permanent investment.The old fable of the man who killed the goose that laid the golden eggs has been wasted on many lumbermen in the past, but it is te be hoped that the | establishment of the School of Forestry in Cornell University, the first in America, is destined to work a great revolution in the ideas of in telligent people.We have a renfarkable object lesson in forestry in Germany, where it has become almost an exact science.In this couniry, says the Forestry Journal, about 1,000,000 acres of forest lands) are owned by the state and the yearly revenue is not less than 920,000,000, About 20,000,000 acres of forest lands are owned by private individuals and their profits are almost as great, During the last fifty years at least these revenues have been con.| stantly on the increase, owing to the more intelligent management, irrespective of the market price of material.This in.a practical view of the matter which ought to appeal strongly to Canadians.Of course, forestry can only be prac Forests properly receive adequate protection from fire.In the last few | years many farms in this country have been abandoned because the land was no longer regarded as productive, | though.they would be considered eo \"in other .countries where people are less used to an sbundant fertility.If, however, they are no lomger capable pot producing crops, they could be | world from the whole of the turned to good account by tbe grow.wheat and it's just the best, fou ever tasted.Every flake -

outset, the doctor warns the public, that the nature of the employment must determine what hours ehall be devoted to sleep.The old adage of ten for a woman, eleven for a man, and twelve for a man and wife, must not be rigidly adhered to.The firat essential is to find out what mumber of hours EU sufficient and then to rigidly adhere to it.It will not do to sleep fifteen hours one night and twenty minutes the next.It is fer better to take nine hours each night.\u2018Too much sleep ia bad, for it induces sluggish action of all the digestive organs, end ing in weakness and disease.Nor is too little sleep to be recommended, for it is not enough.There should be a stated time for retiring and a stated tints for arising, one in the avening and the other in the morning.Before going to hed, the doctor maid.onlv vestful and auieting thoughts, should Te indulged in for an hour or two.To induce leeniness he recommends reading à book, or taking a hot bath, or sipping * glass of warm milk, Never go bungrv to bed, for not onde fe it à Ted thing for the health, hut it makes sleep impossible, Never pet up hungry.for the name excellent rensone.Having followed thees directions carefully.14 only re- maine ta wind un the clock, nut eut the ent, and #0 to hed.The heddine should be light In weight, save the doctor.theugh henve enough for warmth, Tt ic inadvisable to go tn aleen with the testh chattering.To lie flat on the hack without a pillow fa to enaumw a atraignt figure and a shapely neck: but it also induces heavy breathing or snoring, as the mouth in ant to fall anart some dis.tense.\u2019 A bandawe under the _ chin mivht prevent thin fant pan.Tt is well to Ve on the right wide, whichever it iz found to be, and te avold balding the arma abave the head, ne this posture makes an additinnal demand on the heart, Ween the arme ot the siden, Anthmatical versons are advised to use high pillows, bnt others should use smaller head rests.Steaming on the counterpanes fs» wdstake.if nat a crime, and no word droomed by thé dertor wonld seem.to fustity it.After ving anistle far some hours, gently stretch the limhe tw'patting out the ent again.and af- tee Making her slight meal, return PRESS \u201cOPINIONS.Contracfors Tents.| Railway and Miners Supplies Canvass Goods and Marine Hardware of every descrip= n.CATALOGUE SENT FREE Sonne\u2019s Marins Stores 227 81 Jamas St, Montreal \u2018 to bed.It is now time to up.\u2014 Mail and Empire.get up THE DOMINION Government should call home those fake redskins who are touring in England and posing as wild Indians from Canada.The whole of them are just as civilized as the average white man and with a much better eve to business.They find it financially profitable to dress up according to the Indian fashion plates of 1775 and go about in London talking the language of Fenimore Coope's novels, which they have probably all read in advance.If the tour was purely spectacular there would be no jection to the wily redman turning am honest dollar, but he incidentally misrepresents the conntry as he- ing about a century behind the times, which is a gremt antiseptic for Government advertising.\u2014Ottawa Citizen.CASTORTITA.Bears the » Kind You Have = Bought Signature ut FIRE IN FRANCE.Paris, Aug.135\u2014The largest forest fire known in France in a generation has devastated 7,500 acres near Toulon, and is still burning.Tt hroke out yesterday near Pugetvills and Pagnans, and a strong northwest wind caused it to spread rapidly.It dentroyed the Quatre Temp: woods in .two hours, and during the night burned two more forests.It has al- reacly covered an area of 04 miles, This afternoon troops were ordered to help to fight the flames.The inhabitants are fighting valiantly.The hear is overpowering.To-night the fire in rolling towards Motta and Mayors and threatens the Pierreleu forest.\u2026 Chago\u2019s Of monte coral and gusran er Form footing bleeding i and protrudin es een Gon oka uae.It 8 a ese UO ote DR.OHASE'S OINTMENT.No tourist should fail to takea trl to the interesting Huron Indiay Village, at Indian Lorette and to Lake St Joseph, by the Que and Lake St.John Ratiway train.leaving Que- | bee at 8.48 a.m., 1000 a.m.of 1.43 .m., dally except Sundays, return- ! ke to town at 4.10 pm.445 | pm or 8.00 p.m, À train leaves !

the minerable revenue apparently gained.I say apparently gained; for such revenue ix blood money, and is really worse than lost to the coun- trv.No more wickedly nnnatrintie thing lis conceivahle than to license men to { ruin our homes for the sake of un- godls gain.Thank God for the stand taken hy Archbishop Brurhesi.Wonld that there wore more like him !

working condition.His death at any timo would occasion little surprise.In thé event of his passing away it is probable that the liberal reform element would make a great effort to seize the reins of government and with some hope of success now that the Dow Empress bas grown so old that ee would tind it difficult to continue her | grasp on the throne.In wany respects the Dowager Empress is one of the most remarkable as she is one of the most monstrous figures of modern history.She wes the daughter of a Manchurian noble, and followed the fortunes of her family from Pekin to Osaiton, until, when she was about 7 years old, the condi- , tion of her father\u2019s finances necessitated, or at least resulted in, her sale | as a slave into the family of a Canton merchant.Her beauty even at that time was pronounced, according to .Chinese standards, and her cleverness had already developed.hen she was about 17 years old the Emperor Hsien Fung, as is the Chiness custom, issued a proclamation calling upon the daughters of Manichuria to present themselves at Pekin for a choice to be made among them for the imperial harem.She travelled up to Pekin in the luxury befitting her rank, triumphantly pi the ordeal of inspection by the Em 's officers, and was promptly installed in the imperial palace among the Emperor's women.This was in 1549.Beautiful, accomplished and possessed of consummate tact and unusual knowledge, Tsu Tsi soon stepped out from among the \u2018throng of the harem residents into a arate and distinctive place.Later, (when she presented the Emperor with a son and heir to the throne, she rose \u201cte higher in favor.In 1860, while the boy was still young, his father died and v soon the emall boy was proclaimed Emperor under the title of Tung Chi, with the Dowager Empress and mother Empress appointed co-regents.For many i years, dominating her weak co- t, su Tsi was absolute ruler of China.Finally her son, Tung Chi, attained \u2018his majority, was duly laimed Em.: peror, and the regency ended.Apparently Tsu Tele career was anded.Wise and silent, she drew back with her sister regent into hi vate imperial life.But Tung Lhi di and hia young wife passed away in child birth, and the Dowager Empress at once again came to the front, presenting to the Chinese people n new Emperor in the person of Kwang Shu, a baby son of a brother of the Emor of Haien Fung.Tt is this nep- ew of her dead husband who is now the sick Eniperor of China, and whose death, which may be but a matter of | weeks or days, will precipitate a political, social and industrial upheaval which the Flowery Ringdom never before has cxperienced in its centuries of history.MOBERLY IS CARED FOR.Prince Albert, Aug._13.\u2014Corporal Jones, the Mounted Policeman, who was sent out after H.J.Moberly, has returned.He came back without H.{J., the census guard and ex-poll clerk.: When the corporal reached his destination, he found that somebody had {already preceded him and Moberly had *mnother job in the pay of the Dominfon Government.The hero of the Northern Poll outrage is already working for the Dominion in another capacity.He has been engaged in connection with the payment of scrip to the half-breeds and the treaty with the Indians in the north.Steps are heing taken to treat with the northern Indians, who have never accepted Government honnty, and the report is that Moberly has been taken care of, wo his feelings would not be hurt when his pay was increased.Mrs.Moberly.wife of the ex-poll clerk, returned with the mounted policeman.BE A STRONG MAN Increase your vitality.Restore your nerve energy and feel | as you ought, brisk hearty and over ready for work.You need Ferrosone, ~It is just the remedy for me.It eroates ja keen appetite, gives prodi- gioun digestion, pours richness and vitality into the blood.- It takes power to rebuild & worn {out man, but Ferrosone has that power and Mr.Walter Wood of Beau- oxpenses, ¢hirty-cight millions six hundred and ninsty-six thousand four hundred and forty-six dollars;
