The Euture of Canada.

There Is no reason why Canada
should not have 25,000,000 population
within the span Of the present genera
ton, says j. d. Whelpley In The At
lantc. Her wealth is increasing at
fourfold ratio. Her tremendous re-
sources are only just beginning to be
appreciated. and there Is no apparent
limit TO their ultimate development.
Conscious of her value to her great
neighbor, fully approaching the neces-
sity Of the good will Of that neighbor
to her own prosperity. she is chagrined
With anxious interest she Is new
watching the war OF Europe against
the commerce of the United States not
in the hope that Europe will win, but In
the expectation that all parties thereto
will In time reach the conclusion that
commercial war Is a useless expendi-
ture OF valuable forces which should
rather be utilized in the making Of con-
veDtions TO enable the trade OF one
country to fit advantageously into that
of another.
Canadian statesmen look with conf
dence to the future to bring about some
such result and anticipate with equal
optimism an early awakening OF the
United States to the promise of her
nelghbor to become the first instead of
the third greatest customer for the
products of American labor.

Women's Ways In japan,

The Japanese husband is apt to treat
his wife kindly, but he Is In no way
accountable to her. She Is obliged &c
trot meekly several PAGES behind him
when they go out together on the street
and must eat her meals in a separate
room after he has finished. II man
should get up to offer bis seat to a
woman in q crowded railway car, be
would create q sensation. Still, Japa-
nese women have much liberty. Often
they are virtually treated as compan-
ions by their husbands. and sometimes
a strong mutual regard grows between
husband and wife, but the women OF
Japan are yet far from occupying the
position to which they are entitled.
Japan needs the slow growth of COM
radeshlp between the sexes to make
more perfect her civilization.
Few casual visitors OF Japan have
an opportunity Of knowing the real
japanese women. the sweet little home
makers, who are as pure and gentle
and modest as any women In the
world, who are gifted with rare intel
ligence that, however, they are seldom
trained to use.-Ainslee's Magazine.

First Settlements In America.

The three hundredth anniversary Of
the settlement of English speaking
America is now but a few years dis
tant, reckoning that event from James
town. In 10 years 1t will be three
centuries since the pilgrims landed at
Plymouth. A decade further along
and our own city will have completed
its third century. Still, however, when
we consider other civilizations which
have been incorporated with the Anglo
Saxon in the United States, jamestown
and Plymouth and Boston must h,de
the diminished heads of their antiquity
when Santa Fe and st. Augustine are
mentioned.
Just when Santa Fe de San Fran
cesco de Asis was founded as a white
settlement by forcible conversion from
a populous Indian pueblo the Spaniards
found on their first visit In 1912 re-
mains for antiquarians to decide, but it
must be more than 300 years ago.
Santa Fe was certainly the capital Of
the region In 1910, and the Spaniards
were not people who in those days
allowed populous Indian pueblo to
remain Indian very long after they Wis
tied it and found it worth taking st.
Augustine's history is clearer, for it.
