The national debt of Canada has grown from $75,728,000 in i867 to the present day figure of $2,204,000,- 000. The debt incurred up to 19M was for productive purposes. It was

‘Special Cats For Rats

(The Lancet)

The first international conference rm the rat was held in Paris in 192B, and its indefatigable secretary gen- eral, Prof. Gabriel Petit, was able to present a report of it when the sec- ond conference met. '

One of the most instructive ex-

cursions was that madeto Havre, where delegates had an opportunity of studying a promising scheme of breeding auperlatlvely rat-catching cats, introduced by Dr. Adrien Loir, director of the public health service of Havre.

It is a melancholy reflection on: the sanity of man that while mil- lions of pounds and other more or less valuable currencies have been spent on breeding horses which will run just a little faster, if it be only by a head, than other horses, little thought and less money have been devoted to the task of evolving a

Mr. Judson sees another factor in the increasing demand for good music, namely, its efficacy as a cure and antidote for the worries and anxieties of modern life. Better than the enjoyment even of a good book is the privilege of hearing oc- casionally a Beethoven sonata, a Bach fugue, or movement from some majestic symphony.
