In a plain wooden coffin he is to be laid on his side and carried by his own horse and wagon to the cemetery. Mr. Foote desires further that there be no religious services at the house, in any church or at the grave, and that no minister be in attendance.

Diep From His INsurtes.—Duncan Mc- Nutt, of Gallagher Ridge, N.

He suffered very little pain, but never re- covered from the exhaustion attendant upon his long journey to Moncton, which, no doubt,
aggravated the bullet wound. According to the version of the accident given by deceased, he broke through and fell on the shell ice, and | threw his gun out ahead of him, the muzzle | being pointed towards him, when the gun was discharged. The bullet entered the left groin /and passed through the body, penetrating the i bladder in its course.

‘Khe Real Restricticnists.
The Montreal Gazette points out that the real ‘* restrictionists ” of foreign trade are the advocates of commercial annexation to the neighboring republic. Under the oper- ation of a common seaboard tariff the foreign commerce of Canada would quickly assimilate to that of the United States. The various conditions and circumstances of commerce in the two countries are very similar, hence, under a joint tariff, the im- porting and exporting business of the Do- minion would stand on the same plane as that of its neighbor. The foreign trade of the United States in 1887 was equivalent to $23.47 per head of population, the value of imports being $692,230,000, or $11.54 per head, and of exports $716,183,000, or $11.93 per head. The foreign commerce of Canada in the same period was $40.48 per head of the population, the exports being $17.90 and imports $22.58 per capita. Commercial union with the common sea- board tariff would reduce this tariff to the American level—that is to say, the average would fall in Canada from $40.48 to $23.47 per head, a reduction of nearly one-half. ‘* Tf,” says the Gazette, ‘‘ we take the trade with Great Britain alone, the figures are still more striking. The United States ex- changes commodities with Britain to the value of $8.85 per head of population, the imports being $2.75 and the exports $6.10, while Canada’s trade with the mother coun-
‘try reaches # per capita value of $17.90,
the imports being $8.99 and the exports $8.91. Commercial union would change all this. With the high American tariff applied in Canada against the products of England, our commerce with that country would sink to the level of that of our neighbor, and instead of an annual trade of $17.90 per head of population as now, we should transact one of only $8.55 per head. Our commerce with Great Britain would be just about one-half as large as now. And yet for maintaining a fiscal policy which gives Canada a foreign trade nearly double that of the United States, and in the case of Great Britain more than double, we are termed ‘restrictionists.’ The word isa mis-nomer, It fits not the opponents of” commercial union, but the advocates of that scheme.”

On the Verge of Starvation.
A special from Kansas City to the St. Louis Post-Despatch * says: ‘* Inforniation has been received here that many of the people in Seward County, Kan., are on the verge of starvation. Appeals have been sent to various places, and a letter was re- ceived by the postmaster here from Mrs. James K. Richardson, who lives 11 miles from West Plains, in which she says: ‘Many of us have not sufficient food, and only a few have enough clothes to hide our nakedness. There is no opportunity for- the people to earn anything by labor, as there is nothing to do and no money to re- compense them if such were the case.

Children are without proper nourishment, and the mild winter alone has been their salvation.’ The writer makes a plaintive appeal to the people of Kansas City. BSe- ward county is in that part of ‘Kansas that has suffered from crop failures, and many those who went there wish little money lost their all, and are now forced to appeal to the charitable for help.”
Mistakes.
It is a mistake to labor when you are not in a fit condition to do so. To think that the more a person eats the healthier and stronger he will become. To go to bed at midnight and rise at daybreak, and imagine that every hour taken from sleep is an hour gained. To imaglne that if a little work or exercise is good, violent or prolonged exercise is better. To conclude that the smallest room in the house is largeenough to sleep in. To eat as if you only had a minute to finish the meal in, or to eat without an appetite, orj%to continue after it has been satisfied merely to satisfy the taste. To believe that children can do as much woik as grown people, and that the more hours they study the more they learn, To imagine that whatever remedy causes one to feel immediately better(as acholic stimul- ants) is good for the system without regard to after effects, To take off proper clothing out of season because you have become heat- ed.— London Queen.
