Although the women have not yet ariived a+ the weeping stage, there is no knowing how secon they will. Here, too, the fidelity to detail shows the painstaking, conscien- tious student; nothing is overlocked and nothing is slighted.

said of the whole picture, for no une but an o' server, and a very close and acute ob- server, too, could have given so true a pic- ture as this of real life on the Gaspe shore. “A Drop Too Mach” isa gem, One can see at a glance that the old chap has taken more than is good for him and is just in the humor to sing a song or tell a story or join in any audacious bit of mischief. A wharf scene here in Montreal is a spirited sketch. A ‘Longshore man is telling his mate a pretty tough yarn. The point cf the story has been arrived at and the auditor, who is sitting on a cask has just taken his pipe out of his mouth to make a renark. The men can be seen any day on the wharves. ‘‘The First Flirtation” is a more ambitious sketch, but rot more strik- ing. A ‘Bold Soger Boy,” a carbinier of the First Napoteon’s army is teaching a young Ltalian peasant girl her first lesson in coquetry. The picture needs no inter- preter. The expression of both faces tells the whole story. ‘The Two Owls” repre- sents a human owl studying the feathered biped. The one bears a curious resemb- lance to the other. It would be hard to tell which of the two looks the wiser or the more solemn. No one but the owl himself can fail to see the gentle and good- humored sarcasm of this picture. Young Canada

This sharp practice of the American Government was lucrative enough for a time, bat, asia all sharp practice, the final reavit is sure to be unprofitable. Canada was by it compelled to evact a defensive tariff, snd the older aid richer and more distant countries of Europe are constrained to follow suit.
