Exercised Over His Obpring. In England "lee than 100 years ago` the husband had-power to choose his wife's associates, to separate her from her relatives, to restrain her religious and personaltreedom, and if the need could be shown even to chastise her moderately, as though she were a child. What constituted sumcient cause for corporal punishment was left for the husband to- prove and the court to de- cide, but so universally was the mastery of a man over his wife's body recogniz- ed that a trial for wife heating was al- most unheard of.

' Under these old laws of England the father had power to dispose of his of!- spring, by deed or legacy, until they were 21 years of age, and the testamen- tary guardian e right over the children supersededthat of the mother, who had absolutely no legal control over them and was entitled toznothing from them save their reverence. and respect. She had no right even to their services, ei- oept in the case of the mother of an illegitimate child, who was entitled to its control and custody. Upon marriage the husband became entitled to the 1 wife's goods and chattels, to the rentals i and prots of her lands. to her earnings` ` and to the custody of her person. In re- turn he was bound only to supply her with shelter, food, clothing and medi- cine, which he could do out of her per- Ional earnings, or out of theprots of _ her properties, should she be an heiress. .

The Empire of Britain is not an absolute despotism, but has component parts each having its own independent and self govern~ ment, and therefore individual responsi- bility. What has made England great? said the Bishop. Those qualities and characteristics that are distinctive to the British race. It is obvious that England has been made great by individuals in whom these traits of character are found. The conquests that have `added territory to the empire are a result of this feeling of indi- vidual responsibility; England s maritime supremacy is due to the pluck and courage` of British seamen who have made Britannia rule the wategs; the diplomatic rule ofAEng- land is also illustrious because of those prin? ciples withwhich the statesmen of Britain are endowed; England's commerce has also achieved its world- wide importance by| in- dividual perseverance. The distinctive characteristics ofathe British are industry, integrity, honesty, chivalry, and the tend- ency to honor woman and protect the weak. and the people of. Canada must take their share in the promulgation of these qualities. _-,, ,I,_ J, I I S, ,, 1 ' ` A i_n., Ho is gqd F1199 `Neat Poxietqhkulsheng. , ' Thursday afternoon. re broke out on Mr. James Iandriggn-'5 home on the Pensioner : line; A strong wind" was bldvying at the time, and the house" ind A oontntp ` totally ; dotroyod.'

No page of British history causes her sons more `icy than that writ- ten during Queen Victoria's reign. The British Empire now dwarfs the mightiest empires of antiquity, Greece, Rome or Per- sia falling into insigniticance. Her area is 13,000,000 square miles. and pnpulation'_250,~ 000,000. One-fourth of the population of the world swears allegiance to her and very much of the area of the globe is hers.l All this vastterritory has not been acquired by aggression or force of arms. but largely by colonization and very much as a result of the protection the British Government gives its subjects. ` l.VJ11_O.l 1-....- d 4.- .- Wednesday, May -1,"1V89`8.-On lot 6. con.

He nished up at the Royal where he did considerable "shouting"; there, he claimed, he was rob- bed of $20 which was in an inside pocket of his coat. Whether he lost this money by theft or not is extremely doubtful, but there was no corroborative evidence to show that -the two men accused by Vaniderstein had anything to do with it. Before the case had gone far Magistrate Ross dismissed it and honorably discharged the accused men after giving them some advice relative to good company.
