On the morning of Christmas Eve a letter
came to say that Sir Adrian and Lady Caryl
would reach Heron's Nest that evening, and
that they would dine at eight. So they were
coming at last! What would their coming
bring to me?

his business to the eight-hour system

Canada will find that the bluffing
method of dealing with the fisheries
controversy will not be effective this
time. Months ago the Canadian news
papers were profuse in threats Of ac-
tive hostility to American fishermen in
case the American government re-
fused to negotiate new treaty, and
they urged the equipment Of vessels
to seize American fishing schooners
landing at Canadian ports for the pur-
chase Of bait. Now that certain seiz-
ures have been made a strange spec
tacle is presented in the Canadian
parliament. Realizing that existing
dominion laws do not justify the seiz-
ures, the government leaders are rush
ing through bill to make bait-buy-
ing by American fishermen an offense.
It is rash performance, and in the
end it is sure to work injury to Cana
dian fshermen.[ Madlsonian.

the Mormons do not need any adj

convince them of the rightfulness of
plural marriage and if the practlce
thereof we're made crime punishable
by death those who believe in its d.
vine origin would believe SO still.
And although if those who now believe
in plural marriage should be denied
the right Of attempting to justify
their belief therein and be forbidden
to advocate the principle by word,
sign or gesture under pain Of life inn
prisonment, yet would belief in the
divinity of the revelation concerning
or celestial marriage be
handed down from father to son--aye,
even babies sucking at their mothers
breast would imbibe the spirit of the
cruelty and despotically interdicted
faith, and the belief in plural marriage
would continue to be cherished with
increasing devotion by continually
multiplying the sands as the years
