we're highly pleasing to the audi

the musical numbers rendered

The inside of the academy hall
was prettily decorated with the
colors of the Alma Mater, white

intermingled with oleanders. The

Patience is the guardian of faith,
the preserver of peace, the cherlh-
er of love, the teacher of human
ity. Patience governs the flesh,
strengthens the spirit, sweetens
the temper, STILES anger, extin-
guishes envy, subdues pride; she
brides the tongue, restraints the
hands, tramples upon temptators,
endures prosecutions. Patience
is the courage of virtue, enabling
it to lesson the pain of mind and
body; it does not so much add to
the number of our joys as it tends
to diminish the number of our
sufferings. Labor is still, and
ever will be, the inevitable price
set upon everything which is
valuable Selected.

Qucbec'5 Enormous Birth Rate.

DIR. OSlcr says you can't diminish
the birth rate of Quebec. In the
year 1890 the late Hon. H. MERCER,
then prime minister of the province,
had law passed by the provincial
Legislature granting 100 acres of the
public lands to each father and
mother Of twelve living children,
and last year return was made to
the house of those who had taken
advantage of this act. This return
shows that there were more than
3,40O families Of twelve living chill
dren in the province, while some
were boosted of seventeen, eighteen,
nineteen, and one even ran up to
twenty-three.
According to the last report Of
the provincial compiler of vital sta
tistics-that is to say, for 1903
60,4l9 births were registered, which
gives birth rate of 1915 per 1000
OF the population.

There is growing demand in In
dia for timber other than teak, ow-
ing to the increase of factories and of
coal mines, while there is also a
large export. The oldest form OF
cultivation practiced by the forest
tribes of India was to burn Il good
patch of woodland, leaving all the
trunks bare and black, and then to
SOW among the fertilizing ashes a
miserable crop Of grain. This wGs
done for two years, by which time
the jungle plants grew up and chok-
cd everything. In this way perhaps
81, 900 worth of timber was killed to
grow $50 worth of grain. AS some
of these tribes to this day know no
other way to grow corn, they resent
being interfered with and revenge
themselves by arson, and more for
ests are destroyed.
