The mere fact that an earthquake shook up Reno will not seriously jar the divorce industry. While the United States supreme court was deciding “that hash is not mecrhandise,” it mignt as well have told us what it is. The fact that the Montraal Stock Exchange has decreed against gum chewing by members was probably not due to the high price of gum. The recent Hearst-Gaynor ‘mouth ar in'New York and the Taugart outbreak in Indianareminds ussthat: there are political disagreements elsewhere than in the republican party. The man who has shattered one of the cherished ideals of America is Joseph Scoville, Jr.,, who insists that whiskey is no good for snake bites. He will please tell us what it is useful. for. INCREASE IN CANADIAN TRADE. Trade returns for April show that the internal development of the Dominion of Canada has greatly stimulated the foreign commerce. The total imports for the month were valued at $30,682,000, an in, crease of $8,15),000, or thirty-six per cent, over April 1910. The ex- ports, on the other hand, increased but $14,500,000 or twenty-two per cent, over the corresponding period of the previous year. The increase in exports of agricultural products were valued at $1,250,000 and those of manufactures at $632,000. If this rate of increase of the for- eign trade is maintained in the same proportion throughout the year it will bring the total trade figures for the fiscal year ending March 31,1911, to a point in excess of $800,000,000. This is a most flatter- ing showing, but it is largely due to the tremendous amounts of foreign capital being invested in Canada. It comes usually in the form of machinery and other com- modities necessary for the develop- ment of the country’s industries. While these evidences of success are being pointed to as reason why Canada is doing well enough under existing trade conditions, the more far sighted of the public men and newspapers do not under-estimate the value of closer trade relations with the United States. ! BY THE WAY I If you save money, do not brag about it if you wish to retain either popularity or cash. One of the first delusions a man' loses is that his bride’s clothes will last, Things that never happen- have deprived lots of us of our fair share of sleep.
