to third more business than was recorded in
1909. In fact, we look for banner year."
But it is with the North Atlantic trade that
the prognosticators mostly concern themselves.
So vast is the community drawn on by the
cruising steamships that they would be as
sured of goodly lists in almost any case. But
where would the passengers come from to fill
the great express ships bound for northern Eu-
rope If America were in the doldrums? The
sad sea waves answer "Where?" Considering
that the minimum saloon rate just now by
such vessels as the Lusitania and Mauritania
is $125, by the Kronprinzessin Cecelie $1175o,
by the Adriatic and Kaiserin $112.50 and by
the Provence sos, it is not difficult to realize
that great deal of money is spent in ocean
fares alone.
According to the steamship men the opti-
mists are to have their wish this year and their
cheerful yammerings will not be without foun-
dalton. From present indications the big
ships will be going out well filled some weeks
before midway, when the huge hegira begins
to reach an acute stage. April, the "intermedl-
ate season." usually a time to indicate how
later travel will be- bids fair this year to be an
unusually brisk month for outward Founders.

THE ANNUAL EXODUS TO EUROPE
How Great Steamship Companies Handle the
Tightly nigration
Tightly Migration.

In order to avoid further generalities at this
point figures are inserted here to give prac-
tical idea as to the capacity of several of the
popular floating hotels, what the rates are at
the beginning of the rush and also the approx
mate lump sum paid by saloon voyagers when
the liner goes out full. Also the steamship
officers were sounded for the purpose of ascer-
tanning how the advance bookings were for
sailing in April. Everywhere the answer was.
We'll be pretty we'll crowded by sailing day"
The total of saloon fares Is computed by
means of an average fare figured out by the
steamship men. The average on the Kron-
prinzessin Cecelie was about $235. It will be
seen by the total that travellers by half
dozen of the big liners taken in a bunch spend
q sum well over half million dollars before
the start There is of course big sum ex-
pended also on these ships for second-cabin
fares.
These, it is estimated, would amount in
the case Of the Kaiserin Auguste Victoria, for
instance, to $4,000 on the basis of 300 pas
sengers at an average fare of $685. Thus the
fares for cabin passengers by the Hamburg
boat would total $130,500. The Kaiserin, the
North German Lloyd boats and the Rotterdam

Civilization and Missions,

There is a question that is larger
than government or trade, and that is
the moral well-being of the vast mill
lions who have come under the protec-
ton of modern governments. The rep
resentative of the Christian religion
must have his place side by side with
the man Of government and trade, and
for generations that representative
must be supplied in the person of the
foreign missionary from America and
Europe. Civilization can only be per-
manent and continue a blessing to any
people if, in addition to promoting
their material we'll being, it also
stands for an orderly individual liber-
ty, for the growth of intelligence and
for equal justice in the administration
OF law. Christianity alone meets these
fundamental requirements. The
change of sentiment in favor of the
foreign missionary in a single genera
ton has been remarkable.

POSTUM FOR MOTHERS
The Drink That Nourshes and Sup
plies Food for Mother and Child.

MY husband had been unable to
drink coffee for several years, so we
were very glad to give Postum a trial
and when we understood that long
boiling would bring out the delicious
favour, we have been highly pleased
with it.
1T Is one of the finest things for
nursing mothers that have ever seen.
It keeps up the mothers strength and
increases the supply of nourishment
for the child If partaken of freely. I
drank it between meals instead of wa
ter and found it most beneficial.
"Our five-year-old boy has been very
delicate since birth and has developed
slowly. He was white and bloodless.
I began to give him Postum freely and
you would be surprised at the change
When any person remarks about the
great improvement, we never fail to
tell them that we attribute his gain
In strength and general health, to the
free use of Postum and this has led
many friends to use it for themselves
and children.
II have always cautioned friends to
whom have spoken about Postum, to
follow directions in making it, for
unless it is boiled fifteen or twenty
minutes, it is quite tasteless. On the
other hand, when properly made, it is
very delicious. I want to thank you
for the benefits we have derived from
the use of your Postum"
