CANADA'S GOOD TIMES.

While il is well to heed every
word of caution from the leaders in
commerce and finance and to avoid
all speculative ventures that lack a
solid business foundation, ii is clearly
evident that there is no conspicuous
weak spot in Canada's present era OF
prosperity. The Toronto Globe says:

I'm Which Three Men Can Live Under
Water Twelve Hours.
Yet another submarine boat has been
invented, or is 1t al old friend under
an assumed name? Be this as it NAV.
a submarine boat, ordered by the Bra
lillian government, was to be tried this
week on the Seine, and the trials being
satisfactory other and larger vessels
are to be built, says the Court Journal.
The new boat, which is named the
Goubet, is some tewenty-six feet long,
about 5 feet 6 inches in diameter in the
center, and has a displacement of about
ten tons. The motive power is supplied
by electricity, and the screw also serves
the purpose of a rudder, the shaft being
Joined so as to enable it to be turned
either to the right or to the left. Three
men, the inventor claims. can live I'M
der water in the Goubet for twelve
hours with the supply of compressed
air. This has, of course, to be proved;
but In the event of anything going
wrong, a lead keel, Weighing over a
ton will be dropped, and the boat will
at once come to the surface like a cork.
On account OF electricity being used for
supplying the propelling power, the
sphere Of action of the new boat must
of necessity be very limited, as COM
passes cannot be used, but it could do
all that is required of it. If taken on
board a vessel and launched when the
enemy's ships were in sight. The Gou-
bets mission is to throw torpedoes, and
il the arrangement for throwing these
projectiles al be relied upon, she will
prove a formidable antagonist. To

and when it is sunk to any required
depth in that position 1t remains ex-
actly. the arrangement for sinking the
vessel being so beautifully and care
fully arranged. One ounce Of water
more or less-will cause the boat to sink
lower or come nearer the surface.

A Sprig Of Lemon Verbena
BY CARRIE MAY ASHTON.

1t was that delicious fragrance OF
Lemon Verbena, 80 unlike that Of
other perfumes, that first aroused him
from that long sleep into which he
had fallen after the fever left him.
For hours he lay there dreaming of
his childhood's home, and the oldfash-
ioned garden so dear to his mothers
heart. In his dreams he saw it all
once more. the neatly kept place with
its picket fence, the fragrant pinks
and heliotrope, great velvety pansies,
bachelors buttons, dear little double
daisies, sweet peas, lavender, burga-
mot and last, but by no means least
the lemon verbena.
1t was years since his mother had
passed on.
The last time that he remembered
the peculiar fragrance OF lemon ver-
bena was the night of his broken en-
gagements, ten years before. Doris
had worn a bunch of that flower at
her belt on that we'll remembered occa-
sion. He had given it to her from
his mothers garden. She looked every
inch queen that night in her snowy
gown with her fair wavy hair piled
high on her head. She had been f1irt-
ing outrageously with gay young
sport and her lover demonstrated with
her as kindly as he knew how. From
the days of their childhood he had
been her devoted friend and champion,
and later her lover. In thought,
word and act he had been loyal to her.
She was creature of many moods
but always winsome and lovable. He
had had but one other woman friend
and confident and she was his lifelong
comrade and companion, his mother
Life was never quite the same after
her DEATH
Doris could never stand interference
from anyone, and taking off her en-
gagement ring and the bunch of lem.
on velbena she had laid them in his
hand and with some bitter and sarcas.
tic words had sailed out of the arbor
where they were resting, like trag-
edy queen.
He had left home the next day and
from that time he had never gaz d on
her face.
The nurse came to give him some
nourisl. ment and said he was better.
He was too weak to question her but
lay there dozing and dreaming the
rest of the day. In the middle of the
night he invountarily called out,
"Dors, Doris.' As the nurse ap-
proachc his bedside he said in a dis
up ,inted tone, ooh! thought it was
D ,ris.' She endeavored to SCOT he
him Us she would a sick child but he
exclaimed petulantly: Take it away,
[ am tired and sick Of it, pointing to
sprig of lemon v.rbena in tiny
glass on his medicine table. WHO
has been staying with me tonig ht?'
he inquired impatiently.
"Only substitute to relieve me,
for l felt obliged to get some sleep
Low that you have passed the crisis
and are so comfortable" replied the
long suffering nurse whose tired eyes
and pale face testified to her need Of
rest.
"Forgive me, was brute 20 speak

Went quickly on the pin,
And in the ''Swimmin' hole' it dropped
To lure his next of kin.
Lines of care now mark the place

When he found himself ashore,
For more than once I've played his part
And swallowed "baits' galore.

WOULD RETAIN
OIL INSPECTOR
Thinks BIackmar Should Be Trans
ferred to the Board of Public
Works, Where He Logic
ally Belongs

If the suggestion of the Municipal
league Is carried out a compromise will
be reached in regard to the proposed
abolition of the oil inspectors office
and the work put under the jurisdiction
of the board of public works.
Mayor Harper is inclined to favor d1-
Verting the work to the inspectors of
public safety under the board of fire
commissioners.
Secretary Charles D. Willard Of the
league yesterday gave all councilmen
copies of resolutions. The council eX-
poets to take up the question Satur-
day morning in committee of the
whole.
These resolutions state that "as the
city council has under consideration
message from the mayor advising the
abolition of the office of oil inspector
and the delegating of this work to
various other departments, and the
league has at various times made in
vestigation through it's officers and
committees into the work done by the
incumbent of this position, Charles
Blackmar, and is thouoghly satisfied
as to the honesty, courage, ability and
industry shown in his performance OF
duties, it is resolved that the council
he urged to take no step that will
result in depriving this city of the val
liable services of Mr.. Blackmar, but
that some plan be worked out whereby
this office may be transferred from
it's present independent position to the
Jurisdiction of the board of public
works, where it logically belongs"
