He's seven, C) address of the person, firm or cor- poration offering the potatoes for sale, Cadmium, a by-product obtained in the production of zine, was produced in Canada for the first time at Trail, Samuel Cunard pioneer of the trans- Atlantic. steam packet business, persuaded the Lords of the Treas- | ury to give him an overland mall | contract and thus assure year- round passenger service between Halifax and Pictou, obviating the necessity of travelling through the United States to reach the Canadas," has been disclosed in old papers dis- covered during repairs to the Cu- nard Company's offices here. In a recent sketch of Cunard's work, Dr. Archibald MacMechan calls attention to the fact that no monument or commemorative tab- let has been erected in Halifax to the founder of the steamship line, that no life of him has been writ- ten, and that documents relating to his life and business dealings are exceedingly. rare. The six letters which form the most important part of the find in the company's offices were wrttien at Cunard's London lodgings in Plc cadilly, in the pears 1840 and 1841. Writing to Colonel Maberly, he tells hew passengers disembarking at Halifax and bound for Canada had to continue their travels through the United States. He considered it "of much importance to have the line of communication to Canada made perfect," and felt"induced to take the office, 'though the sum 'or which I have offered to perform this service is much less than it will cost me." The reply to this was that the Lords of the Treasury could not agree to any permanent arrange- ment, but would not object to an agreement contingent on the con- tinnance of the grant theretofore made by the province of Nova Sco- tia, To this Cunard repled with the explanation: that great incon- venience had been experienced in consequence of there being no pro- per conveyance between Halifax and Pictou, the mail being carried in a wagon. When passengers were un- able to get across to join the steam. er at Pictou' this route to Canada was completely stopped. Officers who wished to join their regiments at Quebec were compelled to pay six pounds to the contractor then on the route. "I will be bound to take two pounds, ten shillings for this service," Cunard wrote, pointing out that the conditions had been in- jurious to the public and himself, He had therefore made a tender for conveyance of malls, which would assist him In furnishing coaches for the conveyance of pas- sengers, The tender, at a low rate, had been accepted by the Post Mas- ter at Halifax, subject to approval of the Post Master (ieneral. "I beg respectfully to state," he writes, "that as this is the main road to Canada, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island, the con- veyance of the mails on it should be the first consideration and should be permanently provided for out of the Post Office revenue, of | Wa also make an excellent brandy Which there is plenty for that pur- | which medical autYoritics say is pose."

Helen shivered. It didn't seem to her she could stand much more. She held Tacy tight, and Tacy pat- ted her shoulder, "Now, there you poor child. It's a shame. You've had a dreadful time. But it's nothin' to what you'd had if yon'd married him, be- lieve me. There's good things round the corner for you, you're young an' han'some. You may be glad of this yet." *"No.. There's want," said Helen. Presently Tacy went away. But Helen felt comforted. She was not quite alone. She went to work next day a little buoyed up, a little more the laughing Helen she had been. But the morning tired her; and she began to realize that what ail- ed her was more than the blow af Tommy's treachery. She had over- done, as Tacy had warned her for a long time before the thing had happened. She worked more aes- perately hard; she couldn't be ill; why, she had to have money! She went the round between her little room and the bank, the lunch- room near the bank, and home a- gain, She strove to talk and laugh with the other men and girls. But she missed it horribly, just the same, Tommy's wild gayety, his sudden, furious, resentful tempers when nobody had done anything--nhis charm, his power of sweeping people along with him. She missed, more than anything else, tough she did mot know it, someone to give love to. Doris Mil- liken was the only friend of whom she saw much, Doris woxls vot let her go. She needed Helen still, and hunted her out in the little golden' oak room, taking her for long walks and talking about Ronny. And Helen found herself telling Doris (Doris, who was 20 silent that nobody ever thought of usk- ing her not to tell anything!) the truth of the matter. It 'seemed queer to be telling Doris you were unhappy, instead of consoling Dor Is for her troubles, "I hadn't realized T was such a weak sister," she told Doris, try- ing to laugh, one evening. They had dinner down in the little wood. She was trying not to avold all the places where she had trysted with Tommy, "You weak!" said Doris awed- ly. "Compared with me you're a per- fect Rock of Gibraltar. And you don't realize, Helen, that every. body loves you just as much, Of course, they're all wondering and fussing about it. I think you ought to have told on Tommy, ana let him get the blame! As it is, of course, everyone's guessing and Bues®ng. You see, you and Tommy ran the crowd. And when you sald you hadn't time just now to finish up managing the picture, tilting and all, they WOULD wonder, be- cause they were all erazy to see themselves.

R. Rotha, South African Trade Commissioner to Canada and the United States, recently in an interview, Dr. Botha is a mem- ber of the distinguished family which gave to the world General Louis Botha. He spent a few hours in Montreal in connection with a large consignment of peaches and other fresh fruits from South Africa. General Hertzog's government clearly has shown new interest in the promotion of intra-imperial trade according to Dr, Botha, "The forthcoming Imperial Economic Conference at Ottawa would pro- vide a very good opportunity for Canada and South Africa to get closer together economically." he said, 'It is as good us certain that South Africa will be repre- sented at the Ottawa meeting. Both dominions are looking for expanding markets and each of- fers opportunities to the other." There is a big potential market for Canadian goods in South Af- rica, according to the trade com- missioner, not only in the main existing lines such as wheat, flour, automobiles, farm machinery und lumber, of which South Africa takes nearly ten million dollars worth a year in all, but also many other 'lines like canned aalmon, sardines, 'wooden handles for tools and machines, paper products and rubber goods. South Africa looks for an ex- panding market here for its fresh fruits, which arrive at a tim: when they do not compete with Canadian fruits, he said, last year, South African exports to Canada greatly Increased, reaching the racord to- tal of nearly three million dollars. This was mainly due to large im- portations of sugar from Nata) and malze, Last year the Scuth Afrl- can corn crop was hoavy and at the same time there vas a short- age in the United States. "We hope to find a big market for citrus fruits here since Canada does not grow her own oranges and ours are exceptionally fine," sald Dr. Botha. "We alzo hope to Increase our wine trade since Can- ada imports much and can hardly hope to satisfy her own require- mente, So far most of the wine Imported has been of the port type, N { to Tommy, she pute Aslde all thought of Ethan and prepares to join her future huas- bind in Wisconsin, She gets a ' etter from Tommy breaking the rengagemunt, The Delamaters take Helen into their home, It is plaiu that Mrs, Delamater has "egged" Tommy into breaking the engagement.
