 "It is well to remember that during the past twenty
 months the largest production of copper the worlds history Ias gone into consumption that in the period surplus supply of approximately 4000000 pounds has been absorbed aso and that fully of this years output has al ready sold With these facts in mind and the knowledge that Germany and Austria two countries that normally ? per cent of the worlds output have been sn off from the of supply for twenty months one is hardly warranted in taking beah view of the copper situation.

Queered the Queen.


Many stories have been told of the
blunt and truculent manners Of DR..
Temple, the famous archbishop of
Canterbury. The following is related
by Alfred Capper in his book Of remi-
niscences. Mr.. Capper vouches for the
truth of the story, as he heard it re-
lated by the servant who stood behind
Queen Victoria on the occasion of the
incident.
Her majesty sat at dinner, with the
archbishop of Canterbury, the gruff
and grumpy DR.. Temple, on one side
and on the other side DR.. Randall Da-
wilson, who was then bishop Of Win
chester. Her majesty turned toward a
certain colonial bishop who was seated
next to the archbishop Of Canterbury
and said, you know, DR.. So-and-so,
can well remember you preaching at
Balmoral twenty-five years ago."
The bishop of Winchester then said,
"Really, your majesty, your memory is
marvellous, absolutely miraculous"
mot at ALL" snarled DR.. Temple in
his gruffest tones. 81 told her majesty
myself before dinner!"
