CannibaIs of New Hebrides.

The Bishop of Newcastle presided
yesterday at the Church House over
the annual meeting of the Melanesia
Mission. The Bishop Of Melanesia,
in the course Of an account Of the work
done in the Melanesia mission field,
urged the necessity for more white
men as missionaries. The native teach
ers, he explained, worked much bet
ter when placed under the white lead
ers. 1t was their intention also to
build new ship of 500 tons, with
which to cruise around the whole Of
the islands forming the Melanesia
group. For this purpose $4,000 was
still required.
So far the Bishops speech was mat
ter of fact enough; but when he pro-
ceeded to describe some of the Gus
toms of his interesting flock his story
took on a iurid aspect. In the Sol
onion Islands and the New Hebrides,
he said, c.anibalism was still common.
Men were often seen carrying deep
bags slung over the shoulder and
reaching to the ground, in which
they carry body for home cousumP-
ton. In New Hebrides it was still
no unusal thing for baby to be
snatched from it's mother and taken
away to be eaten. When two oppos-
ing parties of natives finished a fight
and it was discovered that the losses
had been unequally distributed the
discrepancy was usually made up by
the sacrifice of young children belong,
ing to the side which had had the
minimum Of losses.
After such narrative it was, per
haps, superogatOry to add that there
was a continuous call for the GOspe
from the Melanesian Islands. Mor'
money and more men seem urgently
needed.-London Standard.

Government Road Experiments.

AS result of laboratory expert
ments conducted by officers of the
United States government the depart
ment ofagriculture expects soon to be
in position to vastly improve the
methods and greatly reduce the cost
of road construction throughout the
country. The work that is now being
done by the department is for the pur-
pose of developing the physical and
chemical properties Of the materials
employed in roadmaking.
The engineering features have al
ready been well established, and the
depth at which the base rocks should
be placed has been determined as well
as the exact angle of the road in order
to insure drainage and protection.
The department experts will now en-
deavor to pick out the rocks that are
best adapted for surface covering.
From the Investigations thus far
pursued with certain rocks used for
macadam roads, says Good Roads
Magazine, it has been found that by
iudicious selection of materials roads
can be put down to last from five to
ten times as long as those built under
the old systems without any addition
al expense in construction. A pro-
gramme Of work has been outlined to
cover the next two years, and In that
time the department expects to fur
nish information to prospective road
builders in every part Of the country.
The laboratory that has been estab-
lished in connection with this work is
very complete.

 They Bake the Finest
 Bread Sold Here.

Messrs Gallagher and Dtfrley of 9 South Court Street. manufacturing con- fectioners and bakers. are rapidly de- veloping a handsome business. Their spe- cialty is stick candy of which they are making 5000 pounds day. though they hake large quantities of what is conced- ed by those who are in position to know, to be the finest bread sold here, and the demand for 1t Is rapidly increasing. MT. Diffly is an experienced and slxillful confecuoner and baker and has personal charge of these two branches of the firm 8 business, and this fact explains the pop ularity and superiority of the candy and bread produced.
 As stated above the capacity of this firms stick candy department is 5000 pounds a day and that their goods are in every way superior is shown by the fact that this large product is sold on mail and city ordeB, and 1t is therefore un- necessary to employ a single travelling so large trade in stick candy has ever been built up by any manufacturer with out calling in the assistance of travelling men, a striking proof of the superiority of Messrs. Gallagher & Diffly's goods over any with which they come in competi- ton.
 MT. Difly gives the manufacture of stick candy his close personal supervision. All of his skill and experience are concen- trated on this work, the best appliances, including a splendid vacuum pan, are employed, and the natural result is the best stick candy made in this section. Merchants who have once sold this candy are always ready afterwards to buy 1t to the exclusion of any other.
 MessYs. Gallagher & Diffly act on the belief that superior goods at fair prices will draw trade and the sale of 5000 pounds of candy day, without a travel ing salesman, is pretty good evidence that they are correct adv.

and.soul story of Marns, Trent. Wilderness Girl" and deserted wife. The sources of the popularity of these "Confessions'' are not far to seek. The leading sociological questions of the day and marriage and divorce; and in treating of them profoundly the author of this story does not go beyond her depth. The book presents not only a series of fresh and interesting situations, but treats with sincerity and not hippancy. of the trials of an intro spective wife It is well written. full of 8 penetrating philosophy of life; and presents views of marriage that are far from being rare among women. The ra.son detre of the book is in the conduct towards each other of 9 high-strung wife (deserted by her husband) and of e physician who has long been in love with her, and who proves to be her mainstay in her almost unendurable situation. In these days of loose ideas of marital responsibility. the book carries @ wholesome, valuable lesson. Marna's growth into a wiser wife and a better self-poise is paralleied in the experience of thousands: and Dr. Robert Hazleton is. in- deed. @ knight of the twentieth century The shadow of tragedy that turks mysteriously be- tween the lines of the diary steps out boldly upon it's pages toward ehs end; and then comes the climax of the story in which '.Dr. Robert" plays his noble and pathetic part. Marnas attitude toward her husband and toward her friend. Robert, is the phase of the book being most discussed; in fact, MarnA bids fair to be as thoroughly and pttilessy talked about as ones new next-door nNdgffbor.
