Tie Decay of Winter Sports In Canada.

Tie Decay of Winter Sports In Canada.
The average inhabitant of the Estates"
IN going to Canada in the winter time
expects, l have no doubt, to see the
streets and hillsides covered with snow
shoes and toboggans. He may be sur
prised to learn that there is but one
really good toboggan slide in Canada,
and that is at Montreal, while snow
shoers are numbered now by tens where
formerly they were counted by hun
dreds. !, It is simple enough to under
stand what has brought about this
change in what is usually accepted as
the typical Canadian winter sport.
= a few years ago, when tobogganingg
and snow shoeingho urished purely for the
great sport furnished, the professional
impresario, aided by the hotel proprietor,
conceived the idea Of booming Montreal
and incidentally enriching themselves
by holding winter carnivals. the main
expenses Of which were borne by Mon
treal merchants. For a time they drew
largely, and Canada was literally alive
with snowshoes and toboggans, but anon
they palled, and the last much advertised
carnival was highly undressing from
a spectators point Of yiew.-Harper's

LOVES SERVICE.

Love called to ~ young man winning1yr
Come; join the rani-s of my company
And take the field in my SERVICE
But the young man said: There are ether
things
Than bushes and kisses and flowers and rings.
or lar more worth than your service.
"There's business and sport and pleasure and
art:
Your war is mere folly, your weapon a dart:
I've no time to spare for your service"
Love turned lightly away when he heard the
rebuff.
OF young volunteers there were more than
enough
To fill up the ranks of his service
But time, passing by, made clear to the man
That they are the wisest who join when they
The worshipful ranks of Loves service.
So he offered to Love his jewels and coin;
Forgetting his age, he thought he would join
The throng who pressed to Loves service.
But Love answered lightly: 1.-THE day has
gone by
sere autumn leaf is too old and too dry
For garland worn in my service.
You can buy if you like q friendly regard,
And perhaps it may seem if you try very
hard
AS if you were in my service.
"But the raw recruits for my household guard
I take from the young: the old are debarred
From taking the oaths of my service
"The countersigns Youth Can you give
it?' "Ah, nov
~Then right about face. You're too old and
too slow
TO learn the details Of my service"
