CANADA'S GOLD POLICY. l Canada’s policy as to the gold standard has been bfought to a hend by (e fact that many United State holders of the war loan, matured October 1, are reported to have been demanding gold. This issue, of which about $12,000,000 remains outstand- ing, is payable in Canada, but so long as Canada officially is on the gold standard, gold can be de-| manded, and gencrally this stipulation is being made by holders in the States because of the New York discount of around 16 per cent on Canadian exchange. Premier Bennait imnust decide whether gold is to be shipped from Canada, or whether the Dominion will formally abandon the gold standard. Efforts have been made to obtain a loan from the States, on terms favorable to Canada, but ditficulties have been encountered, cue to unsettled conditions in New York money m:kets. In banking circles tem- porary abandonment of the gold standard has been favored, because it has been felt Canada has less to lose commercially from a wide disparity be- |inquiry will quickly dispell that erroneous thought land one will find that those interests are fou’- square and honest. Eugenie. (New York World-Telegram.) We are tired of hearing people tell how to pro- nounce the name of the great French hat Empress —and mostly getting it wrong. It adds to depression. There's nothing hard about it except the first syllable, “Eu,” for which there Iis no precisely equivalent sound in English. Clear your mind; take a deep breath:— Pucker your lips for :‘u” but say “e” instead; 'add “zhay”; finish with “knee.” Don't accent any one syllable more than another. Stress all alike. Then smile, put on your hat and be imperially happy. A little boy usually starts out with a demand for staying up late and compromises on a glass of water.
