People are passing favorable com- ment on the -appearance of the new store of G. W. Lyons, jeweller, at 744 Princess street, on thé site form- erly occupied by Sky's Community | 501 Ia a very short time this place of business was fit'ed into an | ttractive je ary store which is a | fine addition to the array of beauti- ful stores on Kingston's 'main shop- ping street, Mr. Lyons has had a wide experi- n his work and makes a spec- y of diamonds, having studied | them right from their firs. stages | in the mines near Johannesburg, South Africa, to their final develop- ment in the finishing and marketing establishments at Rotterdam, Hol- land, and the retail stores in the | British 1sles and Canada, For some times he was in the employ of the Keeley firm here and left this posi- {tion to serve overseas for the entire duration of the war. Re'urning to | !Canada, he established a small stora {for himself at 267 Princess and his (business has expanded to such a de- !gree that he has been compelled to take over the fine premises he now | | occupies. The new store, although not en- | tirely finished, is a fine one and the | iecorating and arrangement of sock | {harmonize in very pleasing and taste- {ful manner. All the articles neces {3ary to a high class jewellery estab- {lishment are listed and the repair | jdepartment, which is given special jattention, receives an Increasing pat- ronage as times goes on, Mr. Lyons | lis "0 be complimented on his new | store and the progressive spirit be- |hind it. OR. AP. KNIGHT OPPOSED To Granting an Extension of | Opening Season For Tak- i ing of Lobsters. | "The lobster industry of Northumberland Straits would be ruined by granting the petition ot the fishermen for gn extension of the {open seasonspermitting the 'aking of {lobsters on Aug. 1st instead of Aug. 115th as at present." Such was the |Anding of Dr. A. P. Knight, chair man of the biological board of Can- (ada, in his report to the department {of fisheries. | the { Dr. Knight made an extensive in- | vestigation last summer at the re- quest of the government, on the {north shore of New Brunswick and {the Prince Edward Island coast. He |tound that the female lobsters were | {carrying eggs Which the animal | would extrude in a few days or weeks {if it were allowed to live. In his cpidion they ought to be allowed to live and thus promote lobster pro- pagation for the future benefit of e industry, but even under the ex- isting regulations this cannot be done. Dr. Knight advocates the pro- hibition of all fishing from June 15th to Sept. 15th, and he believes tua. a rational appeal to the fishermen and canners of the maritime pravine- | es during the next few years would : :esult in the adaption of such a pol-| icy. | How vitally important this matter | {is may be judged from a considera-| {tion of the annual value of the lob- ster fisherizs to the population of the coast. Last year the revenue deriv- was $9,000,000, making the. lobster | the second important fish industry in Canada. Dr. Knight shows that if the peti- tion of the fishermen were granted, | the female lobsters would be killed | in thousands, every day after Aug. | 1st because the eggs would not be | attached to the tail of the mother | but within her body. But whether within her body -or "without the re- | sult would be the same. August is the height of the egg-laying season for the portion of the straits cover- ed, and the fishermen sliould petl- tion the government to prevent all fishing until Sept. 15th in each year i | MIZPAH, 1 Go thou thy way and I go mine Apart, yet not so far, Only when evil hangs between The pathways where we are; May God keep watch 'tween thee and me, i This is my prayer; He looketh mine, And keeps us near. I sigh sometimes to see thy face But, since this may not be, I'll leave thee to the care of Him, Who cares for thee and me, "I'll keep you both between my wings," This comforts, dear, One wing o'er thee, and one o'er me, | * So we are near. { And though our paths be separate, | And thy way is not mine, Yet coming to the mercy seat, My soul will meet with thine, | And God keep watch 'tween thee we i me. ! . I'll whisper there; ! He blesseth thee, He blesseth me, And we are near. ~--JULIA A. BAKER. Senator Smoot, of the U.S. Deb: Commission, denies that bankers pla: a loan to Germany.
