One morning she seemed suddenly so

remaining strangely quiet. And her

The Temperance league, of Toronto,
haserected a three story substantial build
ing on Elm street, which will be coffee
house for workingmen. A company has
been formed to carry on this idea The
object of the company is to establish and
operate coffee houses in places frequented
by workingmen and to supply them with
a cup of good coffee or tea for two cents
and meals at moderate prices. Friends
of this movement will be asked to take
up stock at five dollars per share, and as
it is expected that the work will be
largely self sustaining the stock will
probably be worth par.
