Wage earners there earn about a penny a; day. Oa tbat they can live in ordi nary times. Now. with the cost of food raised two or three fold, they cannot possibly live on their wages “Great masses of the population of India are on the verge of starva- tion even in the best of times Mil lions must die for want of the grain that derlers are holding in granaries for high prices. The Government will do all that it can. Since the famine of 1877-78 it has been pre- paring for a famine by planning res- ervoirs, roads avd other public works. These are to begin at once, and funish employment and wages to many. But India has a population of 287,000,000, and the £25,000,000 to be expended will be but a mere | trifle in alleviating all of the suffer ing. “The letters that have juet come RARRARRARRRARRARRAAD « « « In the Mission Board’s famine packet from India, the Rev.

B, & Q shops received the notification of their discharge this week scenes followed which are almost beyond description. Men fell on their knees weeping piteously, thinking of their families at home. The wages they had been receiving were hardly enough to keep body and soul together and not one of them is prepared to face a hard winter. Some of the men discharged had been employed by the “Q.” for twenty and thirty years and were promised a situation as long as they lived. One hundred and twenty five men were laid off and they'll have a hard time of it this winter. A solution of this problem of unemployed will be a hard one to find.
