During the seven years that the Hospital has been in existence, you have endeared yourself to many _ of ourcitizens, by your courteous manâ€" ner and strict attention to the duâ€" ties pertaining to your office. The Board can testify to your profesâ€" sional and â€" executive ability as a manager, nurse and housekeeper, and we trust that we may be equally as fortunate in appointing a successor.

Kaufman. Tea was served shortâ€" ly after six o‘clock. Before leaving the table Mr. Kaufman in a very neat and timely address, gave a hisâ€" tory of his twentyâ€"five years‘ exâ€" perience in business. He relerred to the first few years when he tried to do all the work himself, such as bookâ€"keeping, tending to the yard, and‘the planing mill, and when his business grew he found it necesaary to add to the then small factory and also secure help. In course of time he had to build the present factory, and he was pleased to announce to his employes that owing to the conâ€" tinued increase in business he . is about to erect a large addition _to the present establishment. The sheich was particularly interesting to some of the Employes who have faithfully _ stood by Mr. Kaufman @uring the past twentyâ€"one years. The most agreeable surprise . was sprungâ€"â€" upon the employes at the conclusion of Mr. Kaufman‘s address when his two sons â€" Alvin and Milâ€" ton â€" presented to each employe one dollar for every year they had been in Mr. Kaufman‘s employ, â€" the amounts varying from one to twenâ€" tyâ€"one dollars. The gift was thankâ€" fully received by the men who unanâ€" jmously voted Mr. Kauiman "a jolly good fellow." Mr. B. S. Hallman, foreman of the factory, then took charge of the proâ€" ceedings, and in a few well chosen words referred to the kind hospitalâ€" ity shown by Mr. Kauiman and his estimable wife and family, and exâ€" tended the hearty thanks of the emâ€" ployes to Mr. Kaufman for theit kindness.

But, owing to the sin of retouching, there is one thing that few of William‘s photographs show to advantage, and it is the most impressive characteristic of his face.

A first impression, thereâ€" fore, may <thus be summed up: The Kaiser is less a great king than one nas imagined, and more a great man. The longer one remains in Germany, ind the more he learns of William and his extraordinary activitics, the deeper grows this impression.

In cvil th t} involv Britis cl had U the Al Ottawa, April 8.~â€"The speech of Hon, Willian Paterson on the Ludget was the principal event in the House toâ€"day. Hon. William Paterson, Minister ~of Customs, resumed the budget debate, reâ€" ferring fipst to the criticisms by the Opposition of the mw i of the Government. Perhaps some eral papers thought the Government had The motion appropriating Thursdays for Government business was adopted.. not been faithful to the platform of l: in that respect.

Comparing the expcuditure for 1893 '!X‘L}xat for 1901, it was found th«~ a 1901 "the ordinary contrcllable expendiâ€" ture was $46,$66,367, and in 1895 $38, 132,005, an increase in 1901 of $3,734, 362. The position of the Opposition jusâ€" tified every dollar of expenditure. It was â€" their _ duty, _ if _ they disapâ€" proved _ of this _ expenditure, . to challenge it. It was . very _ easy to make speeches, but they should have put themseclves on record. _ Instead of putting a resolution so vague that even the Conservative speokers did not know what it meant, they should have chalâ€" lenged the expenditures. In the sinking fund there was an increase of $428,000, simply a cross entry; in ~immigratio there was an incrsase of $240.077, a1 perhaps the Opposition would challeny that in their statement. | The country had value for the expenditure. Mr. Wil son ctied "No," and Mr. Paterson reâ€" rlied that 190,000 immigrants had come n in 1901, many of them Canadians reâ€" turning to their country. The influx was continuing, and he read a letter from the customs collector at North Portal, saying that since the rush of immigrants began they had teen rushed with work night ard day, and that the yards were full of cars all the time. Four hundred and cizity thousand dollars was spent in exhiliting at great exhibitionsâ€"Paris, Glaszow and . Bufâ€" faloâ€"â€"and Canada had derived benefit from this maznileent advestisement. Twoenty thousand collirs was spent for butter and checse work. There had also teen an imcrcase in the cost of the experimental | forms. In _ legislation there was an incroase cf 8231,1355, which was largely due to the incrcased sessionâ€" al indenmity. Any one of them could reduce this by rot taking the cxtra $500. In civil government there had been an inctrease of $52,009, due to the country‘s expansion. In the Â¥ukon A Manitoba Mother Gives Practical It is well known _ that nearly all infant troubles spring from a disorâ€" dered _ stomach. _ Indigestion in a child will cause at first peevishness and _ slecplessness, but other more serious troubles will follow fast, such as colic or cramps, constipaâ€" tion in some cases, diarrhoea in othâ€" ers, with fatal results in many cases. The mother who neglects having conâ€" stantly at hand the means ior treatâ€" ing these ills takes an awful â€"risk. Mrs. R. L. McMillan, Logoch, Man., is one mother _ who is particularly well fitted to give advice on the care of babies.
