ANOTHER RAILWAY
10 Connect the Two Oceans
Through Canada.
Will Be Managed and Operated by the
Present Grand Trunk.
Means an Outlay Of from $75, ,000, 900 to
$1oo, 100000.

Montreal, Nov. .3.-Canada is to have
a second trans-c continental railway ex-
tending from ocean to ocean. The an
nouncement was made, Suday, by
Charles Nj. Hayes, second vice president
and general manager of the Grand
Trunk Railway. The construction Of
the new line will be begun as soon as
the necessary legislation can be OBJ
tanned from the Canadian Parliament.
The Grand Trunk will be behind the
new road and will operate it. The new
line. according to Mr.. Hayes, will have
a mileage of about 5000 miles and the
construction. including equipment. sta
tons, bridges, ships and other facilities
will involve an expenditure of from
SIS. 100000 to $4,000 600.
According to the present arrange
ment the new system will run through
that portion of Northern Ontario
known as New Ontario. starting from
North Fay or Gravenhurst, Ont, and
extending through Manitoba. the
northwest territories and British Co
lumbia, to Butte Inlet or Port Simpson
Il. g.. as may later by determined upon
The line will be of the most modern
and up-to-date character, having in
view especially low grades, long tan
gents, sleet bridges and heavy rails, as
well as ample station facilities and
facilities and equipment for the hand
ling of freight and passenger traffic.
NO one" says Mr. Hayes. '.who has
been studying the wonderful develop
ments that have taken place in the
Northwest during the last few years
can fail To he deeply IMPRESSED with
the growth of that extensive and ricl
territory. and our directors feel that in
view of the apparent need of additional
railway facilities and in order to guar
antee to the present Grand Trunk sys-
tenn direct connection with that very
important and growing section OF
Canada. the only wise policy is to take
active STEPS toward this extension"

Study Principles.

There are men who can tell at a
glance whether a tree is sound and viii
pay for cutting; others who are expert
in making roads and skidding the logs;
others who understand the difficult art
of driving the logs hundreds of miles
down the streams to the great mills.
Other men are expert at managing the
vast machinery for cutting the lumber.
Speaking once to the late Senator
Sawyer Of Wisconsin, who was several
times a millionaire, in the lumber busi-
ness. we asked him to give us his idea
of the reason why these men become so
expert in the various branches of the
business: We'll" he said, in his quiet,
dry way. they've got to catch on to
the principle of the thing they're doing
or they'll quit mighty quick. They
know that, and it makes them study
out the governing principles. You see
il is a different business from farming.
The farmer can go along and scratch
away on the surface of things and
make some kind of a living. The Lord

must understand the law of their
working. There was educa tion of the
strongest kind.
The same is true of farming. though
thousands upon tn 0usands of farmers
cannot see it. Underlying everything
the farmer does, no matter how trivial,
lies a principle. If he knows these
principles and obeys them he is sue
cessful. If he is ignorant of them, how
can he take advantage of them?
The difference between the intelli
gent and ignorant farmer lies in the
fact that the first tries to get at the
principles that govern things. Then he
studies how to adapt his labor to these
principles. OF course, with such know
ledge, there are many more chances in
his favor. He knows that wise men
have spent their lives in studying out
the working OF those governing princi-
ples and then written about them. He
is wise enough to know that it Will help

The Secret Of Graceful Movements.

The secret of grace is complete con-
troll of the body: consequently ii Is i'm
peratively necessary to live naturally
3nd move with perfect freedom. Now
this does not mean to be slothful and
careless, for, on the contrary, the in
dclent and lazy are generally awkward.
Bearing the body well requires a GER
tain amount of reserve strength and
inward vitality. The habitual pose of
the body is the first matter to be con-
sidered.
Parents often say. Hold yourself
erect" or stand straight" but many
persons Go not know how to do this
correctly. They throw their shoulders
back, droop the torso at the hips. carry
the head high and stick the chin out
This is positively hideous.
When you rise to your feet the whole
body should take on a slight degree of
tension, the abdomen drawn in. the
chest held high and the weight OF the
arms hang from the shoulder blades
There should be no concdve curve at
the waist in the prolific outline. The
body should be held in this poise at all
times, whether walking or sitting. and
no matter how occupied-writing,
reading or sewing.
Most peoole are very careless of their
posture while sitting. In writing they
bend in two over their desk. In read
ing and sewing they sink in a careless
heap on the chair. 1t is just as easy
and less fafiguing to keep to the COR
rect posture.
The bending of the body in a loung
in nftifnda u-biln sitting down iS
only ungraceful. but actually harmful.
for it strains the whole back and
shoulders and cramps the chest, and it
is sign of laziness. The spine should
be held erect. and all bending OF the
body should be from the hips. not the
waist.
Don't write on a high desk, but one
just the height of your elbow. Most
people are too Indolent to bother them
selves about the correct posture. One
can derive actual benefit from sweep
ing a room if the body is held correct
ly. In sweeping advance the left leg,
bearing the weight on the ball of the
foot. with the head inclined slightly
forward and the torso slightly back
ward. This hOllows the back at the
waistline and raises the chest.
"A faulty position, while standing or
sitting. not only cramps the vital or
gans. and interferes with the important
functions of respira ton. circulation and
digestion, but also weakens the mus
cles that are kept continually on the
stretch during the working hours"
says an authority on the subject.
With regard to breathing. deep
breathing. habitually. develOpes the
chest and strengthens the lungs.
Nothing is more conducive to con-
sumption than careless breathing and
slovenly way of sitting.
Bear the principles always in mind
that all bending must be from the
hips. not from the waist, and deep
breathing should be practised at all
times. but especially during physical
exercise. OF course at first this re-
quires thought and will power. two
things the indolent are not given to in
dulge in. But as soon as you make up
your mind to it, the correct pose will
become natural to you.
