SHORTAGE OF STORM RUsBERs

The recent bad weather has
brought to light the fact that there
is shortage of rubbers, says the
Baltimore News. Folks who hastened
to the nearest shoe or department
shop for storm rubbers when the
snowstorm hove in sight discovered
in many cases there were no rub
bers to be had, storm or otherwise.
In other stores small sizes could be
obtained, but the man or woman
with feet of average or slightly more
than average size, as a rule was
greeted with the information thai
"we're out Of your number at pres.
ent,, and I don't know when we'll
have them in again ?"
"The reason ?" a wholesale rubber
jobber repeated. "They simply didn't
make 'em. Most of the rubber
goods, you see, are made in New
England. It also happens that the
largest number of munition factories
are up there, and they pay big wages
and are consequently taking the helE
away from the rubber factories"

LAUGHED At PNEUMONIA IDEA
Lord atratheona Had Not Thought for
illness When Business interests
Made Their Supreme Call.

AS has been aptly said, Lord
Strathcona was "studiously careless"
about his health. His chief affiic-
ton was "colds," and it is a wonder
that, through his imprudences, they
did not lead to serious illness.
An old Montreal friend, NJ. G. R.
Hosmer, who is quoted in Mr..
Beckles Wilson's 'Life of Lord
Strathcona," recalls typical Incl
dent that happened nearly twenty
years ago.
Lord Strathcona was declared to
be very i'll and threatened with
pneumonia. His private car was or
dered to be got ready for trip to
Florida. He learned suddenly that
his presence might be useful in Win
nipeg, where the Manitoba school
question had come to the front.
Without saying a word to his doctor
or to anyone, he ordered his car to
be attached to the Winnipeg train,
and off he went. Lady Strathcona
was greatly alarmed, and came to
my office the next morning. was
hen general manager of the Cana
dian Pacific Railway telegraphs. We.
found out that he was as far as the
north side Of Lake Superior at the
time, and that it was 80 degrees be-
low zero there. The night after he
arrived in Winnipeg he gave a ban
quet to the bishop of st. Boniface.
When he returned to Montreal, |
spoke to him of how deeply con.
cerned, not to say alarmed, Lady
Strathcona had been. He smiled
and said, eyes, l remember that
cold morning. l had to break the
ice in the pitcher when l got up

ENGLAND's RUSTY WINDOWS.

At his farewell to Eton the other
day, Doctor Lyttleton said that one
of the reforms on which he prided
himself was that he had got 16 of the
chapel windows open; "and he want.
ed them to note that these windows
had been shut for four hundred and
fifty years." 1t is concise apologize
of the time.-London Observer.
