BUSINESS GOOD
N CANADA
No Financial Depression, and
None Since the War Began.

~ well-known correspondent Of an
important Western daily paper recent
ly made an extended visit to Western
Canada. and In summing up the re-
suits, after going thoroughly into con-
ditions there. says there Is no financial
depression In Canada, nor has there
been anything Of the sort since the
war began. Anyone who has watched
the barometer Of trade, aud seen the
bank clearings Of the different cities
grow and continue to grow will have
arrived at the same conclusion. The
trade statistics reveal q like situation.
The progress that the farmers are
making Is highly satisfactory. As this
correspondent says: ut is true there
have been adaptations to meet new
conditions, and taxes have been re-
vised. and that a very large burden Of
added expense in many lines has been
assumed. but 1t has all been done me-
thodically. carefully and with full re-
gard for the resources to be called on.
"That this has been done fairly and
wisely Is proved by the present COM
Portable financial position.
with the exception Of a restricted
area In the east, Canada is not an in
dustrial country. The greater portion
Of the Dominion must be classed as
agricultural area, with only an infini-
tesimal part Of 1t fully developed.
Lacking complete development, the
agricultural portion Of Canada has
naturally placed its main dependence
upon fewer resources than would be
the case in the States. Even in peace
times, business would be subject to
more frequent and wider fluctuations,
due to the narrower foundation upon
which 1t rests.
THUS, Canada has been able to
come up to the war with efficiency and
suficiency and to maintain and even
advance its civilian activities.
"Canada's first element Of financial
strength lay in its branch bank sys-
TEN. This system has two great ad-
vantages: 1t makes the financial re-
sources Of the Dominion fluid SO that
supplies Of capital can run quickly
from the high spots to the low spots ;
also. 1t places at the command Of each
individual branch the combined re-
sources Of the whole institution so
that there is an efficient safeguard
against severe strain at any one
point.
Here in Winnipeg. the ALT Canada
banking houses maintain big, strong
branches and, as elsewhere in the
Dominion, these held to an attitude Of
saneness and solidity that prevented
even the start Of any financial dis
turbance.
That business generally is now COM
ing strong on an even keel is largely
due to the absolute refusal Of the
banks, both branch and Independent,
to exhibit the slightest signs Of ex-
element or apprehensiveness.
For all Canada the savings bank
figures are astonishing. Beginning with
1913. they are. for the fiscal year end
ing March 81:

 It was late when K. got home. Sid ney was sitting on the low step, wait ing for him. With a long breath of content, K. folded up his long length on the step below her.
 "Well, dear ministering angel" he said, ''how goes the world?"
 Things have been happening, K"
 He sat erect and looked at her. It was moment before he spoke. He sat looking ahead, his face set. When, after moment, he spoke, it was to forestall her, after all.

 "Aren't you going to wish me hap piness?"
 If my wishing could bring anything good to you, you would have every thing in the world"
 His voice was not entirely steady, but his eyes smiled into hers.
 "Am I-are we going to lose you soon?"
 q shall finish my training. I made that condition"
 Then, in a burst of confidence:
 q know so little, K, and he knows so much! I am going to read and study, so that he can talk to me about his work. That's what marriage ought to be, sort of partnership. Don't you think so?"
 K. nodded. His mind refused to go forward to the unthinkable future. h. stead, he was looking back-back to those days when he had hoped some time to have a wife to talk to about his work, that beloved work that was no longer his. And he had lost her absolutely, lost her without struggle to keep her. His only struggle had been with himself, to remember that he had nothing to offer but failure.
 s lney's eyes were on the tall house across. It was Doctor Eds evening office hour, and through the open win dow she could see a line of people waiting their turn. They sat immobile, inert, doggedly patient, until the open

CHAPTER xxx.

The announcement of Sidneys en- year. Wilson, ehafing under the delay, was obliged to admit to himself that 1t was best. He was genuinely in love, even unselfishly-as far as he could be unselfish. The secret was to be carefully kept also for Sidney's sake. The hospital did not approve of en- agreements between nurses and the staff. It was disorganizing, bad for discipline.
 Sidney was very happy all that sum- mer. She glowed with pride when her lover put through a difficult piece of work flushed and palpitated when she heard his praises sung; grew to know, by sort of intuition, when he was in the house. She wore his ring on a fine chain around her neck, and grew prettier every day.
 K. had postponed his leaving until fall. Sidney had been insistent, and Harriet had topped the argument in on being an idiot and adopting the Ro- senfeld family" she said, "wait until September. The season for boarders doesn't begin until fall.''
 So K. waited for ''the season." and ate his heart out for Sidney in the in- terval.
 Johnny Rosenfeld still lay in his ward, inert from the waist down. K. was his most frequent visitor. As 8 matter of fact, he was watching the boy closely, at Max Wilson's request.
 .sTell me when I'm to do it." said Will son, "and when the time comes, for Gods sake, stand by me. Come to the operation. He's got so much confidence that I'll help him that don't dare to fail"
 Luckily for Sidney, her three months service in the operating room kept her and Carlotta apart. For Carlotta was now not merely jealous. She found herself neglected, ignored. It ate her like a fever.
 But she did not yet suspect a en- gagement. It had been her theory that Wilson would aot marry easily-that, in sense, he would have to be CO., creed into marriage. She thought mere ly that Sidney was playing game like her own, with different weapons. So she planned her battle, ignorant that she had lost already.
 Her method was simple enough. A uew interne had come into the house, and was going through the process of learning that from senior at the medi- cal school to a half-baked junior in-

 ''That does not mean you are not wanted"
 T shall not go far. I'll always be near enough, so that can see you"- he changed this hastily-"so that we can still meet and talk things over. Old friends ought to be like that, not too near, but to be turned on when needed, like tap"

 "Do you ever think of yourself?'' she cried. "Have you always gone through life helping people, K? Save anythingl I should think not! You spend it all on others" She bent over and put her hand on his shoulder. 'It will not be home without you, K"
 To save him, he could not have spok- en just then. A riot of rebellion surged up in him, that he must let this best thing in his life go out of it. To go

lAltle IAbNh.-=- Gov Brough and R. G. Dye of For rest City whose resignation from the state tax commission recently was asked by the governor for alleged neg leet of duty, held a conference at which Mr Dye filed affidavit and his answer to the neglect charges.
 Following the conference Gov, Brough said that MT. Dye presented three atfidavits by physicians show ing that Mir Bye had been sick dur ing the period in which it was charg- ed he had neglected his duties Gov. Trough said that he had taken MT. Dyes answer to the charge under con sideration.
 From the statement issued by the governor, it was generally conceded that Mr Dye would hold his place un- less a further investigation by the governor warranted his removing the commissioner.
 The charge was filed against MT. Dye about six weeks ago, but because of his illness Gov. Brough did not press MT. Dye for an immediate an- ;wer It was learned Gov. Brough ad- dressed a letter to MT. Dye saying he would expect his answer last Satur- day MT Dye requested that the time be extended until later when, with his attorney, Brooks Norfeet, also of Forrest City, he conferred with the governor.

tefne Is long step back. He had to endure the good-humored contempt of the older men, the patronizing instruc- tions of nurses as to rules. Carlotta alone treated him with def erence. His uneasy rounds in Carlotta's precinct took on the state and form of staff visitations. She fiattered, cajoled, looked up to him. After a time it dawned on Wilson that this junior cub was getting more attention than himself; that, wherever he happened to be, somewhere in the otfing would be Carlotta and the Lamb, | the latter eyeing her with worship. Her | indifference had only piqued him. The | enthroning of a successor galled him. Between them, the Lamb suffered mightily-was subject to frequent .'bawling out,n as he termed it, in the operating room as he assisted the an- esthetist. He took his troubles to Car lotta, who soothed him in the corridor in plain sight of her quarry, of course by putting a sympathetic hand oh his sleeve.
 Then, one day, Wilson was goaded to speech.
 'For the love of heaven, Carlotta," he said impatiently, "stop making love to that wretched boy. He wriggles like a worm if you look at him."
 ''I like him. He is thoroughly genu- inc. I respect him, and he respects me-"
 Its rather silly game, you know. Do you think don't understand?"
 "Perhaps you do. I-I don't really care lot about him, Max. But I've been downhearted. He cheers me up."
 Her attraction for him was almost gone-not quite. He felt rather sorry for her.
 I'm sorry. Then you are not angry with me?"
 "Angry? No" She lifted her eyes to his, and for once she was not acting. q knew it would end, of course. have lost a--a lover. 1 expected that. But wanted to keep friend"
 It was the right note. Why, after all, should he not be her friend? He had treated her cruelty, hideously. If she still desired his friendship, there was no disloyalty to Sidney in giving it. And Carlotta was very careful. Not once again did she allow him to see what lay in her eyes. She told him of her wor- ries.
 The Lamb was lowering near, hot eyes on them both. It was no place to talk.
 Sidney would be at lecture that night. The evening loomed temptingly free.
 1 Suppose you meet me at the old cor 1 ner," he said carelessly, eyes on the Lamb, who was forgetting that he was only a junior interne and was glaring ferociously. "We1I run out into the country and talk things over"
 She demurred, with her heart beating triumphantly.
 "What's the use of going back to that? It's over, isn't it?"
 Her objection made him determined When at last she had yielded, and he made his way down to the smoking room, it was with the feeling that he had won victory.
