Mr.. Gourlay, Canadian NJ. P. from
Nova Scotia, is plainly of the type of
public men whom we class in the states
as blatherskites. In winding up a
fierce speech in the parliament debate
on the Alaskan boundary question he
says: IF it is necessary to fight the
Yankees, we will fight within "a hours,
and after six months will capture their
capital and annex their country to Can
ada!" Some day, when Canada wisely
asks to be annexed to the United States
Gourlay will come along with the 9TH
ers like larub. And the first thing YOU
know he'll be . Yankee"

According to bulletin recently pub
Gshed by the census bureau there has
been of late years free migration be-
tween the northern and southern
states. Many old-time southerners
have found homes in the northern
states, and even more northerners
have been going south to develop it's re-
sources and industries. In 1900 there
were in the north $685. 74 white persons
who had been born in the south. On the
other hand, the number of northerners
resident in the south in 1900 was 1, O22,-

Dark clouds are over SPANS horizon,
but there is no likelihood that they will
break. Spain has had many crises in
the past hundred years, and some of
these have brought revolutions, yet
there is chance that that country will
weather the present storm without Sc
rtous injury. Almost anything, of
course, can take place in Spain these
days. The world, however, believes
that the present dynasty is safe.
Carlism has been discredited, and the
anarchists are not powerful enough to
make serious trouble. Alfonso XIII.
will probably be crowned.

The American mule has received a.
handsome compliment from the Brit
ish government, a parliamentary pa
per describing him as ''the best re-
ceived from any source" Over here,
where we are intimately acquainted
with the American mule, we should
hesitate long before applying to him
the adjective good in any of its de-
grees. He is a useful beast, and eff
cient in many callings, but he is not
good. He is a mule.

Keep Accounts.

Keeping accounts. simple in form,
plain, clear and easily understood,
showing amounts due to or from 9th
ers, entering correctly the dates on
which money is paid out or received, is
the best plan to avoid disputes about
money matters and relieves the memo
ry of many Unnecessary burdens. A
written record of a money transaction
has greater legal value I'm case Of con
trOversy IN court than any verbal state
ment
The habit of keeping accounts in
duces economy in expenditure and in
spires the habit OF saving up, besides
showing at all times correct financial
condition. HOusekeepers, mechanics
and all who handle money in the man
agement of their personal affairs will
find il most profitable TO form the hab-
il Of keeping accounts.
