Canada's Best Corporation.

Concerning the Grand Trunk rail
way system, what it has done, is do
ing and what its future is likely to be
the Montreal Herald says:
From a financial standpoint, the
Grand Trunk railway system is the
largest organization in Canada, and
one of the greatest in the Britist en-
pire-the total capitalization of the
Grand Trunk and its subsidiary lines
being $353,26S,4S7. Including the
Grand Trunk Pacific railway, the to-
tai capital at June 80, 1908, was the
enormous sum of $447,89S,932 for
the entire Grand Trunk and the
Grand Trunk Pacific system of rail
ways.
"The present total mileage of the
Grand Trunk, including its subsi-
diary lines, is $500 miles, with a
double track mileage of 1,O35, which
makes 1t not only the longest double
track railway in Canada, but one OF
the longest double track railways un-
der one management in the world.
Including the mileage of the
Grand Trunk Pacific main line now
under construction and contemplated
$3.50 miles, of which 2,24O miles
are under contract, also 5000 miles
OF branch lines-the total length of
the entire system of railways will
eventually amount of 1895 miles.
In addition to the rail mileage the
Grand Trunk operates steamer lines
on the great lakes between Midland,
Depot Harbor, Ont, and Fort Will
liam, Milwaukee and Chicago. 1t al
so owns and operates large car ferry
steamers on Lake Ontario, between
Coburg and Charlotte (siXty miles)
and on Lake Michigan between Mil
waukee and Grand Haven distance
eighty ,miles), the total mileage of
lake lines being 1899 miles. Adding
the lake mileage to the rail mileage
above, gives a grand total Of 15,134
miles of rail and water lines.
with regard to amount of bus
mess handled The GrandTrunk also
stands in the forefront. During the
year1907, on the entire Grand
Trunk system, the number Of tons of
freight handled amounted to 90
305,275 tons, while the number of
passengers handled was 1884, 1888
According to the official reports for
1907, the Grand Trunk takes rank
among the ten largest systems on the
North American continent, based on
the business handled freight tom
mage and passengers), while on it's
lines in Canada only it handled g.
100000 tons of freight and. 2,100,-
900 passengers more than the rail
way doing the next largest business;
also, according to the government re-
ports, it handled 27 per cent of the
total freight hauled, and 33 per cent
of all the passengers carried by all
the railways in Canada"

Whence II Comes and Whittier II Goes
No One Knows.
The solar system IL well enough
when picturesquely expounded, but
when the solar system becomes a mere
atom travelling some 40o0o0000 Of
miles per annum toward some neon
ceivable goal, and when millions Of
similar systems have to be contem-
plated, all pursuing some similar
course. the lay imagination is cons
pletely bafIied.
Nor Is it easy to believe that the most
eager astronomer is not sometimes
perplexed and dismayed by the vistas
opened up before him. For everything
he learns merely opens up vaster prob
lens. and when he has extended his
vision to stars from which light would
take 1000 years to reach this earth he
is no nearer flnality than the child
who thinks the sky but a spectacle of
revolving lights.
We are told that The heavens as we
see them are occupied by two great
streams Of stars moving in opposite
directions. That suggests at least two
centers OF revolution at some nnimagi-
nabIe distance ana adds to our aching
embarrassment. We ask, Whence?
Whittier? And with all our science
there is no answer.-London Times.
