The most successful agriculturfit mentioned In the Bible is the man who sowed tules while his relghbour was asleep. The tarex gew Again in the parable of the sower we are told that some of the seed fell on good ground, bat that the weeds sprang up and smothered the healthink plants.

You might think that the experience I gathered during that period of instructing the public would make me reasonably sure of things by this time, but such, alas, is not the case. I was sure that I knew pretly bearly everything when I began.

Mr Drummond: And in the end of the year ago. he also had a credit balance.
Witness: Yes.
In answer to another question witness said that some of their clients had sufficient marglas, some had little marglar, sema had no margins and
· some had less iksa a'margin. He had a list of Dames of such pervous and ba had no objection. to show it to Hla. Lordship and to Mr. Franclá and to the gentlemen of the jury. He only objected to it being published.
Mr. Francis objected to it as being irrelevant. Mr. Drummond considered this a very im- porlant plece of evidence. He said that the other side had impeached Mr. Poilishwalla and it was ostential that it should be produced.
His Lordship, after hosslug arguments from bolk sides, decided that it could be produced bot raminded Mr. Drummond that if he wanted to suppress is publication ba had to obtain the consent of the other side.
Mr. Francis objected to it being put in and not pabllibid,
Mr. Drummond said that the defendants con- sidered that it would be a breach of their duly to their clients to publish their names to the world and therefore be could not predace them as Mr. Francis loslated on their publication,
This closed the re-examination of Mr. Kelly, To His Lordship! For the last two yeaYY there was no final settlement between Mr. Tollishwalla and the defendants' firm.

This game came off on the milliary ground bat owing to the Shield Tis on the neighbouring ground and the fact of its not being advertised there were very low spectators to witanes It.

Chauncey Depew In a recent faterview sisies that doing his last visit to England be was amazed at the entire change of public apleton 81 regards America that has taken place since he was across the ocean be fore. The unfriendly feeling towards the United States and towards evarzining American which had obtained in England for many years had undergone a thorough revolution. In this state ment Mr. Depew confirms his reputation as a shrewd observer. What he says is ime. I have on various occasions written for these columns Instances of the friendly feeling that England had for the U.S.A., and I regret la see a subject taken away from me. The case of this change is not far to seek, and regarding this cause I will lay down two points, that bewilder a plais, commonplace man like myself, hoping that someone will enlighten me.
I have lived for many years la the United States, and during that time no man has called me a llar or thiel. There may bave been many who thought I was bo13, but it was not con- sidered etiquette to tell me so, and consequently I Was not told. Such forbearance we consider Kentlemanly, and life is the smoother to can

This tersely represented what the average man in the street is thinking, and so the form the Post Is Increasing in power and circulation. Every day there is a column or more af letters, generally expressing the rising bitterness against America, although the editors print those on the ather side as well. James McNeill Whistler is the latest contributor to the discussion, who shows that an F.F.V. at Virglois is mere of a gentleman than any mere zobleman they have in England, and the editor gives his old friend the artist all the bonots of double-leaded type on the principal page of the paper, where letters are not usually printed so Mr. Dann cannot be accused of not giving both siders show. Meso- while the Daily Mail prints pleasant peace- producing items like the following:
