THE sturgeon fishing season in the
lower bay has closed aud the catch this
season was the poorest for many years.
Storms caused heavy losses in boats and
seines aud at least one life was sacrificed
while the fish caught have been so few in
number as to make the season, all things
considered,a very disastrous one. The
fleets have all left the Mispillion's mouth
and gone up the bay.

TYPES OF BUSINESS LIFE.

In the industrial as in other departments,
we divide men into two classes-the success

class there are, at Least, two distinct
and different types of character. The
members of the class are alike in acolirjno
property they are unlike in almost all else
The purposes and the methods of the two
types OF men diifercntiate them With the
one they are just and honorable. while with
The other they are unjust and dishonorable.
Ire one is blessing to the public, the other
curse he one succeeds by in

lie IS minute-maD. He throws himself into
his work, doing it with bis best intelligence
and his might Whatever he gains he de-
serves TO gain and hold as the reward of
faithful service. He has obtained it Justly
In making the gain for himself he has been a
blessing to all associated with him-a bless
ing to his village, city or State. as the case
may he. We should never envy such q man,
We should rather rejoice at his presence
Ia the community. His good fortune is in
mlcal to the good fortune of no one else.
The man Of the other type is quite different,
In his aim and methods he is Sc fish.

others earn. His success means the ruin of
others about him. for he simply appropriates
Fhat they have gained; lie is thief within

these two types should never be named to-

ABSOLUTELY pURE
Labor in Vain.

That convicts be placed at hard and
improbable labor, so as not to COM
pete with honest toll, is often urged by
the friends Of Workingmen. The ideal
Of these agitators has been reached at
London, Ontario. The workhouse and
penitentiary of the town is situated up
on the top of a high bluff by the river
side. The cOnVicts are told off into
groups of four, and between them is a
barrel with handles; this they fill at the
river side, and then toll painfully up
the steep path to the summit of the
bluff, where the contents of the barrel
are thrown into a gutter to rush back
into the river. Then they descend to
the water level for another load.
