THE SINKING FUND. as it is intended to be, for the retire ment of certain debentures as they fall due, The experience has been in some places that when the fund was wanted it could not be found, the money having been applied by the munieipality to some unexpected and unusual purpose. Hence the legislation which has been taken advantage of, and which has popularized the issue of deben- tures, part of the principal and inter- est being payable annually. This put the sinking fund out of existence, and makes it necessary that the munici- pality shall provide each year for its liabilities, and pay them as the money therefor is collected. Precident, Taft" is outspoken in his denunciation of. the judicial recall.

Some men in high places disappoint the people. They forget or. go con- trary to the promises 'which they made. They are forgiven for a great deal, and for the reason that ocir- cumstances are sometimes encountered which changed the cases. There have heen! instaneés in which public functionaries have wilfully 'betrayed their trust, and then the device of la- ter government is found very use ful. The recall of the judiciary ds . not generally approved, and it is for the judiciary - that President Taft ' speaks. He sees the, oeccssion: in avhich © a THE JUDICIAL RECALLS. lic duty, and at a time when he rea- lizes his responsibility very keenly, is menaced by do disgruntled faction, and this menace Mr. Taft abhors. He has a right to do so. In the United States some of the courts are thying issues of the most momentuous kind. They capnot right- eously be threatemed with any pro- ceeding which will interfere with their usefuluess. They have an acute sense of the service they have to per- form. 'They cannot be moved in any particular by the clamour of the individual or the community. But all judges are not. comstituted alike. The judges of 'the United States should be appointed by the govern- ment, for life, or during their com- petency. That act would have: its reassuring effect. It is: because the judges may be the sport of Chel politi- cibns that they may be dismissed po- litically, and they occupy in this respect a position that detracts very judge, in the performance of his pub- much from their dignity and power. Athletics no one should "depreciate. The development of body and mind should go on at the same time, and the better educational institutions ad- mit this by their curricula. The Roy- al Military College led off in this dual training, and its graduates have had the advantage in all their subsequent careers. The Whig knows of men who col- lege gymnasium, and this fact has made one realize the merits of its course, - Other colleges have followed the ex ample of the Royal, and have intro duced aud commended physical exer cise. To be sure that exercise is not made generally compulsory. ' It is re cognized that some students should have the benefit of a systematic and continuous devotion to athletics, and the college makes athletics a part ol the class work." It must be taken in order to make that work complete. Outside of the science departments the students are permitted to do as they please so far as the gymnasium is concerned. The field sports, however, are an attraction, and usually Uh were built up physically by the T00 MUCH ATHLETICS, they requige for matches. All this is well. But there is one point which deserves attention. It has been emphasized by the experience of individunls who are well known in Kingston and in iis college halls. No voung man is warranted, in any count, in 'sacrificing his studies, through them his profession, by foo much athletics. The athlete is the hero of but a day, so to speak. Heo may carry his triuniphs into several seasons. He may for a time grow in power and popularity. But sooner or later he cannot respond to the dreams of the hour, and then he is laid aside. Athletics are useful, in their place, but there is a limit to the degree in which they should enslave one. They will not afford a profitable living to any individual. As a trainer he ean- wt do as well, financially, as he can in some calling and profession. Re nembeting thiv the student should ap- ly himself to his books and his lasses. He should above all things see that his college hours are well spent, and that he gets thé education hat fits him for advancement in life. jome have made athletics their hobby, intercollegiate ac- and teams are supplied with all the talent ind what a failure they have scored 1, RANG The farmers of Alberta in conven- tiow assembled, have decided not to form an independent political 'party.

"At the least sign, sbe was beside me, bringing me refroshing drinks, which she held to my lips while rais- ing my head with the other hand. 'She arranged my bed comiortably and asketl me about my family. For a long time, I did not know who the blonde lady was, and the next «ime she came to my bedside, 1 could not speak. to her, so great was py emo- tion. The duchess dressed my wounds herself. "Her activity is remarkable. She goes from bed to bed, attending to the wounded, always smiling and ready to comfort the suffering. "When I recovered a little, I wanted to write home, but could not move my arm. The duchess offered to write for me and finally did so, signing her own name to the letter sent to my old mother." HICCOUGHS FOR 16 DAYS. Many Remedies Tried in Vain--Now Laughing Cure. Caindon, N.J,, Jan. 24.--Marie Shinn, seventeen years old, of 125 North Twenty-fourth street, has been hiccoughing continually for the last sixteen days and as a last resort her mother has appealed to minstrels to comme to the house in an effort to get , the young woman laughing so she will forget "her hiccoughs and will regain her health. : On the supposition that a sudden shock might cure her almost every- 'thing has been tried. A revolver has been shot behind her back, persons have entered her room at night and friends cven have threatened to throw {her out of a third-storey window, but all to no avail go far as stopping the hiccoughs is concerned.

The husband said that after a quarrel with his wife she had gone to his bank and drawn out all his money, so that he could not give her any.

Railroads Must Transport it Into "Dry" Counties, Whshington, D.C., Jan, 24.--~Beer is commodity snd railroads must carry it, when offered for tramsportation from one state into "dry" countries of another state, regardless of the laws of the latter state. The supreme court of States made this ruling, the United Helps the Pensions Along. Montreal Star. The arguments of the finance minis: ter, therefore, ought to lead straight to the establishment of old-age pen- sions in Canada. Tt will cost us lit: tle; and it will lift a clond of care from the hearts of millions of our people. We may be getting along well enough to-day. We have a good job, let us say, good pay, and good health. Bat to-morrow may bring a catastro- phe--an accident--a crippling sickness. Not one of'us can be sure. The most confident may be put out of the game before the end of this week. Then what will we do? The long years stretch before us; but our hands lie idle. We have been wounded early in the war, perhaps; but we are none the less maimed. If we had been wounded on the field of battle, the state would be proud to cave for us. But when we are only wounded in the paths of peace, the state lets uslie by the way- side. Old Adam There. Montreal Gazette.
