MiiH Mry McOaunel, who h>a juat retnvned from Victoria Memorial Hospi- tal, Toronto, spent a few days j;h Mrs Lsckhatt Air Service For Toronto A few Jays ago a fifty-two foot mono- plane hove in sight near Toronto and landed at LeasiJe, with its five pas- sengers. It hud just down from Detroit in about three hours :md it is supposed to be the inauguration of an air craft service between Detroit and Toronto. '1 he plane is owned by the International Airways, Ltd. and the company thinks the time has come to develop a passenger and freight air service be- tween Chicago ana Ottawa. It is pro- posed to begin this service between .May 1st and 15th. They declare that they can sicure speed at 150 miles an hour, and the passenger fare will be but ten per crt. higher than railway and Pul- lman charges Machines are being built with a kind of sedau body which will be ab! to carry twelve passengers or 4,000 pounds of freight. It does seem strange that in Canada so far we have not been able to utilize the aeroplane for com- mercial purposes to any appreciab'c extent. Whether it is due to imperfect development of the aeroplane cr to our constitutional preference for terra flrma we cannot say, but until the monoplanes start with their twelve passengers we hall be slow to credit it as a possibility. We pre"sunie, however, that when once the airship has achieved popularity, it* extraordinary speed possibilities- will make it a great favorite for those .who like to travel fast Christian Guardian. A Miraculous Escape That a horse hitched to a cu.ici in a wild runaway could plunge rij,'it into another cutter occupied by a man, a woman mid their baby girl, pnas clar over the outHt and leave the thiee par- sons practically unhurt, seems more like liction than I'act ; yet that is ; ist what happened to Rev. Mr. Goacns, his wife and little daughter.- They were driving along the road :i short distance south of town, when, without a word or a sound of warning -bang ! they weio thrown clear ot their cutter and into the ditch' A runaway horse hitelieJ in a cutter came up behind and without swerving to right or left went tlear o v cr. Fortun- ately Mr. Cosen's cutter w:is over- turned and all three occupants thrown clear of the road On picku.;^ them- selves up the parents saw their little daughter, covered with wraps, of course, lying like an inaminatc bundle in the ditch. She was so quiet U.at they thought that th worst had happened, but when the mother picked her up, she just said: " Mamma did you get your two legs broken off ?" Such an unex- pected question relieved the tcntion of the situation and to the surprinc of :ill it was found no on* was seriously injured. It was an experience, however, which or.e would not care to venture on the chance of coming through unhurt Lveknow Sentinel.
