It might be maintained that the first ~ name is always the noblest and most sacred in a religious and moral sense.

It shows a dullness in distinguishing and tasting the art of civilization.

We might have labels, : 2 oi Our criticiam on it would be that # dulled the edge of fine cultural in- tercourse. It takes away certain 'fing shades of personal interest, of| -- pr or PD 'which help the colored comedy of life, It is barbaric and reactionary to de- stroy these cultural distinctions be- tween one thing and another, because it 'is like rubbing out all the lines of a fine drawing. Now there were very many things in which the Victorians were quite wronf, But in their punctiliousness about etiquette in things like this they were: quite right. In insisting that the young lady should be called at one stage Miss Vavasour, and only \ at another stage Gloria, and only in extreme and confidence Gurgles, they were a thousand times right. They were maintaining a Wholly superior social system, by which social ac tions were significant, and not (as they are now) all of them equally in- significant, There is a meaning in each 38, those names. When I was a boy there was a real symbolism, a real poetry, and in the sane sense & real romance, in the transition from being supposed to oall a lady Miss Brown to being al- lowed to call her Mabel. , There is also this further point, The old stages of intimacy were in- dividual, and In that sense even un- conventional. The new comradeship is entirely conventional. It Is In the exact and solid sense a conven: tion. The old admission to special friendship occurred at different stages with different people; it was an ad- fenture, The mew familiarity is real iy a formality. It is a thing made common like the rules of a game; it is a thing dictated by what the in- stinct of the people themselpes call "the crowd." But the essential point about it is - that this sort of simplification merely fmpoverishes life. Life is much more "rich and indipldual initiations, special _ favors and different titles Tor dif- ferent relations of life.

"We want to Infuse grace and grand into an exi that has become paltry and trivial" be de- clared. "Ws accomplish this psychic: ally by sun-bathing and mentally by psychoanalysis and positivo thinking. Living Poetically "Qur great idea is to discipline our pelves in order that we may live more vigorously and joyously. Tired- ness of limb and weariness of soul go together." On one occasion, when both were ambling along in a nude state, they were surprised by a party of holiday makers on their way over the downs to bathe. "They were extremely surprised," sald the young sun-god, "and they were also somewhat concerned. But we had nothing of which t oe as hamed. We are simply living poetl- cally." Again ,a remarkable stir was creat- ed by an advanced educational experi ment at a private school in Suffolk, where boys and girls ran about nak- ed and sketched from the nude in ed classes, ere were 26 pupils, all the boys being under the age of 12, while the ages of the girl puplls ranged from a few years to 16, The outhouses of the school had been converted into studios and a gymnasium. Near by was a pool of water where, in the summer months the boys and girls bathed, there be- ing a strict rule that costumes should not be worn.

On what grounds?" "Insanity," was the reply. "I proved that his father had spent five years in a lunatic asylum." "But he hadn't, liad he?"

As long as he goes straight Premier MacDonald can probably count on Lloyd George's support, provided he makes certain changes in the Fran: chise Act which should give Lloyd George twice as many followers as he has now and to that extent would make the balance of power twice as puissant as it is to-day. But Premier MacDonald must not forget that there is a Man Behind and that little David with his stone the great Goliath slew. No doubt Mr. Lloyd George still has hopes for the rejuvenescence of the Liberal party. He still has the cam- paign fund In his hands and at the next election can say to one, come, and he cometh, and to another, go, and he goeth, and otherwise act with full authority. . It is this Campaign fund that Win- ston Churchill deplores when he states in his post mortem on the elec- tion that Mr. Lloyd George used every means tb sabotage the Conservative Party, This is only partly true, the Conservative pdrty haying sabotaged itself to some extent by having noth- ing more colorful to put forward than to let well enough alone. "Is 'Mr, Churchill snarling or has he dreams of being the Man. Behind and switch- ing the Liberal party over to his side? One way or another, this Mr. Church- ill has done a lot of switching in his day. ria Intéf-Imperial Trade Quebec Evenement (Cons.): Some people think, with Lord Beaverbrook, that free trade between Britain and the British countries across the sea, is the most practical solution of this grave pmeblem, Others, with Mr. Chamberlain, believe that the time is approaching when the application of commercial Imperialism, but with guarantees for the daughter patioms of England, will be the only efficacious solution of the difficulty. In our hum- ble opinion, free trade is no more de- sirable In the Empire than it would be between Canada and the United States. It Is clear that our different habits of life render a proposal like this inacceptable to Canadians. It would put our raw materials at teh disposal of British industry, to the detriment of the Canadian industrial ist and worker, and it would not com- pensate this disadvantage by any ade- quate increase in the importation by England of articles produced in Can- ada, What both Britain and Canada appear to need is commercial treaty assuring to both a strong commercial preference. Canada already gives this, but receives practically nothing in return. Without doubt, London is our best client for the export of agri- cultural products. But in the invis- ible exchanges, money, for example, Canada annually dispatches to Eng- land hundreds of millions of dollars ip dividends. ame fire Minard's Liniment for Earache. a a G9L Hopes Hast thou o'er the clear heaven of thy soul Seen tempest roll?
