not garhied Nothing else will satisfy the city editor of q reputable paper.
 A c0u,mol remark of the more or less ignorant is: "I don't believe any thing I sec in the papers" The re- mark is as unjust as it is based on a lack of information. Mistakes creep into the news as published, but they are human mistakes. made because reporters and editors are human. and for this reason sdsce ptlb1e to error.
 Few people realize the amount of news that comes into a newspaper office that Is never published because it can never ne verih,d. It may he all true. and the reporter ard editor may he convir ced that it is true. But if it Is not verified and mistakes eradicated as far as humaEly possible. the news ron aims unpublished
 Therefora, when one reads an item Of news in a reputable newspaper one may be sure that its proprietors, or those having dir ect charge Of what is published, believe the news to be re- liable news, after dligent inquiry that proves to their satisfaction that such IS the case. The recent matter appears to be one, bound sometimes to occur. when the necessary conh- dence was II isp;aced.

PRACTICAL "MIRACLE.-

There comes a weird story from New Haven of the finding of the body of a drowned lad by means of a loaf of bread floating on the water.
 Searchers were busy dragging for the body when an old. mysterious man appeared and asked what the trouble was. Upon being told, he took loaf of bread, placed in its top a lighted candle. set it afloat and went on his way. The bread 9oated out and finally stopped. turning about in an eddy.
 When the searchers' boats came to that spot the boys body was found just beneath the loaf of bread.
 There was more mystery about the floating lighted candle, if it remained about the breads stopping in an eddy beneath which the body was found. Evidently, if the story be true, the bread took the course that any float body of the boy. and stopped where it would stop.
 II is upon such tales as these that much ignorant superstition rests. So- called religious faiths" have had little more back of them than the deed of this unknown old man. Perhaps. if the thing happened as reported, he himself could settle in that locality and establish a reputation of another Miracle Man" similar to the one de- scribed in tho tale of fiction familiarity known through its reproduction on the screen.
 II is fortunate that the lads body was found. Relief was brought to those to whom he was dear. But the finding was natural. The body was there in the water and was bound to be found. But no superhuman power should be attached to the old man and his loaf of bread.

New Britain ain't ideal: it has got its points that's bad. They don't appear tbis time O year when she is verdure- clad. But ne'ertheless. there's many things we'd like to see made right: we talks about 'em in the day: we dream on 'em at night. Put when we are inclined to kick about tho winters snow: when we gifts angry cause our stock O conl is runnin' low; when we believes the prices here is highest anywhere; when we gifts mad because the streets don't git the proper care: when we gets red an flushed O face cause we can't get no rent" we'd better stop an ruminate- an then we will repent. As wise suggested by that pipe O mine that contemplates, New Britain ain't a place whar some big tIt uhles congTegates. We may have cold: we may have sleet: we may have other things. but we don't have the sorrows that a awful earth quake brings.

After Benedict Arnold failed in his
treason he retired to Montreal and
stayed there for a time. Benjamin
Franklin lived in the Chateau when
he visited Montreal in 1776 in his
effort to persuade the French Cam
adams to join the new nation to the
south, but his was a vain hope. Dur
ing his stay there he established the
Montreal Gazette" which is still
running. Needless to say, he did not

propaganda.
After 1849, the Chateau was for
thirty-five years used for govern

removed to Ottawa, the city pre-
sented the Chateau to the Numis-
matte and Antiquarian Society for
museum, and as such it is unique.
Its collection contains all sorts Of

The running Of the sands of time

The running of the sands of time
alone can give the proper perspec-
tive and value to historic buildings.
Societies spring up to preserve these
relics of the past. AS a result of
their activities Fanueil Hall in Bos-
ton. Independence Hall in Philadel-
phia, Lincoln's home in Springfield,
Washington's home at Mt. Vernon
and many other buildings are pre-
served for Americas future genera
tions. In Canada, too, this custom
is followed, particularly in the east
ern provinces, whose early histories
are rich in dramatic events.
Perhaps the most famous of these
memorials of the past is the Chateau
de Ramezay in Montreal, which has
remained almost untouched since the
days of the old French regime. 1t
was built in 1705 by Seigneur Claude
de Ramezay, eleventh governor of
Montreal. Here he kept open house
with his wife, whose hand was the
reward of his gallant sortie with 300
men in aid of Quebec in 1890, when
the Count de Frontenac, governor of
Canada, fended of the English feet
