McPhee.s Reinvestment.

An Irishman named McPhee lived in
a shanty that stood in a field near a
main highway out of Kansas City.
The foundations of the shanty were
lower than the road. through which
ran a big water main. AS the living
floor of the place was raised on posts
to make it level with the highway. it
left a large cellar underneath. where
McPhee kept a dozen hens.
One day the water main burst, food
ed the cellar and drowned the hens
Thereupon McPhee entered a claim for
damages against the city. After much
delay. influential friends succeeded in
getting thirty dollars in settlement of
his claim
I've got me money!" shouted the
old man to his next door neighbor.
Glad to hear that" was the reply,
and how much was it. McPhee?"
Thirty dollars"
And phwat are ye goin' to do with
the money!"
I'm goin' to buy thirty dollars
worth of ducks said McPhee.-

TRADE REVIVAL IN
WESTERN CANADA
Not a Myth but an ActuaIlty
Shown in the Returns of Ag-
ricuIturaI Statistics and
Every Department of
Trade and Com
merce.

The trade revival in Manitoba, Sas-
katchewan and Alberta is an actually
and not a myth There is today
spirit of optimism in the air, just as
two years ago there prevailed the OPP
posite spirit of pessimism.
A general trade revival has been
felt in every department of business in
the Prairie Provinces. The agricul-
turists are in better shape than they
have ever been before in their lives.
No farmers of any country are in bet
ter financial condition and in a more
general state of prosperity than are
the farmers of Manitoba, Saskatche-
wan and Alberta. The farmers have
harvested a record crop-a crop which
enriches them to the extent of some
thing over $500, 900. 900.
In the cities the prosperity of the
country has been reflected. Every
where business is on the hustle. The
wholesalers and the retailers and the
implement dealers find business good.
The banks and other collection houses
find collections satisfactory, and finan-
cial men declare that westerners are
paying up their debts. In Winnipeg
the bank clearings have been the larg-
est in history, exceeding some weeks
the figures of Montreal and Toronto.
The grain shipments have been the
biggest in the history of Winnipeg and
in the history of the twin ports, Fort
William and Port Arthur The mail
order houses have had a big year, the
rush of fall orders exceeding all previ-
Gus years and taxing the capacity of
these establishments, whose most san
guine expectations have been exceeded
by the actual business done
The tide has turned in western Can
ada The people of the West are
forging ahead, forging ahead in actual
production and in creation of wealth,
giving generously to charitable and
other funds, paying up their back
debts, while going along carefully as
regards any creation of new debts
They are economizing but not scrimp-
ing. acting cautiously but not miserly
The financial heads of eastern Canada,
of the United States and of Europe are
no longer criticizing western Canada:
rather they are unstintedly offering
. their praise and their compliments
The financial press recognizes that
the tide has turned in western Canada,
and it has been published to the world
The condition of western Canada at
the close of 1915 is one of optimistic
prosperity, backed by the same deter
mination of western people to go on
increasing their productiveness and
maintaining the records which they
have already established.
The trade revival of western Canada
is the happiest feature in the business
survey of the whole Dominion for 1915
and in the outlook for 1916.-Adver-
tisement.

Among the recruits to Kitchener's
army are. of course. many who are
ignorant of all military etiquette.
One of these was sitting alone in
the messroom when the colonel
stalked in. The Tommy was seated
on the edge of the table swinging his
legs and putting at a cigarette. The
only move he made was a jerk of the

The colonel was not accustomed to

Starlings in Tasmania appear to be
greatly on the increase, and are doing
considerable damage to garden and
field crops. In a letter from a CORE

hocks of starlings frequent the fields
in the River Don district and do a
good deal of damage, eating fruit and
pulling up young corn, etc. They are
