Wrongly ballasted, their life I'm this

different patterns OF rolling stock are
In use. Where there was difficulty i'm

Canada and a National Anthem.

Every now and then some one tries
to write a national anthem for Canada;
but in tho opinion Of the Victoria
Culonlst, every effort Is a failure. The
Colonist 6dds: Canada Is not old
enough TO have evolved national an
them. The sentiment OF the people
has not clustered around any partlcu
lar person. event or idea. When the
average rhymester sits down to write
a Canadian song lie tries to include ev-
erything in IT, from the herring fleet
Of Nova Scotia to the miners of the
Klondike, ana the result Is n species
Of directory. BY and by something
may happen, or we may do something
as people, or some one may think Of
something that will catch the popular
idea"

broke all postal records by mailing

The sacks holding the catalogues
