A Wise Saving.

Here is a wise thing said by some one;
1T is an excellent thing for any person
to realize the fact that the world is not
all contained within the limits of his own
horizon. An amusing instance Of this
kind of mistake that is made by people
who are ignorant or forgetful Of this
simple fact is given in the recent expert
ence Of lady traveller in Asia. One Of
the Malay rajahs confded to her his will
ingness to learn English. 'Eiut, he said.
there is this objection to English, that il
is only spoken by dozen people in the
world, even counting the governor Of
Singapore and his followers, while wher-
ever you go-to the north, south, east or
west, or beyond the wind-you find Ma.
lay spoken That Malay was right SO
far as his own horizon was concerned;
but what infinite horizons lay beyond
hint And what infinite horizons Of
truth lie behind many a prim Anglo
Saxon, who mistakes his own little hori-
zon Of personal knowledge for the bound
aries Of Gods everlasting universep-

GREAT CANAL PROJECT,

600, 900 Scheme.

PennsyIeaniaus Talking About $685.
900, 900 scheme.
PITTsBUKG, Oct. t0.-The surveys of
the Pennsylvania ship canal are practi-
cally finished and the commission ap-
pointed by the legislature will ask the
state to complete the canal The com,
mission find the scheme feasible and
favor route along the Beaver river to
Lake Erie. The commission as body
have not as yet given any figures as to
what it would cost to build the canal
but rs individuals they have admitted
it would cost as much if not more than
the Welland canal, which connects
Lakes Erie and Ontario.
The cost to the Canadian government
for this great waterway was something
like 500. 900. 900. and several members OF
the canal commission have figured that
it will surely require this amount to
construct it at the lowest figures At
its previous meeting the commission
discussed the merits of the Welland
canal. Il visit having been made to Can
ada 10y several engineers, and figures
on the amount of tonnage yearly on the
above canal were secured. The COM
mission figured from this that the ton
mage on the proposed waterway to Lake
Erie would he many millions greater
annually, estimating the carrying ca
pacitv of vessels in use on the Canada
canai and those that are to be used on
the proposed Pennsylvania ship canal.
