Reciprocity.

In my address to the notification

demanded by the best interests Of
both manufacturer and consumer"
With equal truth il can be said that
the benefits OF reciprocal trade trea-
ties would enure TO both. That the
consumer would be helped is unques-
tlonable That the manufacturer would
receive great benefit by extending his
markets abroad hardly needs demon
stration. His productive capacity has
outgrown the home market. The very
term 'hOme market has changed in
its significance. Once. from the manu-
facturers' point of view. it meant ex-
pansion; today the marvellous growth
of our manufacturing industries has
far exceeded the consumptive capacity
Of our domestic markets, and the term
"home market" implies contraction
rather than expansion. If we would
run our mills to their full capacity,
thus giving steady employment to our
workmen and securing To them and to
the manufactures the profits accruine
from increased production. other mar
kets must be found. Furthermore.
when our manufacturers are depend
ent en raw materials i'm whole or part
imported, il is vital TO the extension
Of their narkets abroad that they Sc
cure their materials on the most IA
vorable terms.
our martyred president. William Nc

The Soldiers Dream

! dreamed dream last night, wife;
/ thought they'd called the roll,
And I saw the soldiers fall in line,
As they used to do Of old;
1t was a solemn sight, wife
Their locks were white as SNOW,
While an angel gave out badges
And shining cross you know.
The badges were for passports, dear,
To cross a sullen stream
That wound just like a serpent
Round our 'eampment in my dream;
] heard the angel calling,
eye vet'rans fall in hne!'
And I saw our columns moving
Like they did in olden time.
Far out within the cleaning,
Upon the bloody plain,
could see the whit med tombstones
Of the men whom had been slain;
The smoke it seemed had clared away
From the field, meath cloudless skies,
And heard the angel calling
To the dead to now arise.
Deep trouble came upon me,
For the angel from on high,
In giving out the badges,
It seemed had passed me by:
Nv eyes were sore with weeping,
For I saw death S waters gleam,
And I knew had no passport
To bear me DER the stream!
And others, too, were weeping
One had precious wife,
A son and other children,
He loved more than his life;
And others carried bags Of gold,
Their forms all bending low,
Thus weiged with ife's treasures,
That they could not cross you know.
But ran and called the angel:
ssPlease help me DER the stream!'
For heard the waves now laShing,
And could see death s water cleaning,
Then flew the angel backward:
'.Why laggest thou pray?
Did'st thou not hear the order
To fall in line today?
Then gave he my passport,
And my joy now did seem
So very great-unutterable-
That it walked ME from my dream,
I've been thinking 0 'er this matter, wife,
Since the dawning of the day;
You see our forms are bending
And our locks have done turned gray.
Our feet are sore and heavy, dear,
And our eyes are getting dim,
But, as we totter down hfe's pathway
We will put our trust in him;
Well not falter at deaths waters,
Well not trouble at their gleam,
For God will send an angel,
To bear us DER the stream!
