Boston, Mass., Jan. 16.â€" _ Henty Turner Bailey, artist, has laid down a set of rules whereby women cf high and low degrec, fat, thin, tall, c short, can achieve <sthetic perfection in style. â€" Here are the rules: 1t is clear that the Bank Act is in need of radical amendment with a view to instituting such a system of inspection as will pn““m a â€" repetiâ€" tion of such gross _ misappropriation of trust funds that has wrecked barks and brought financial ruin to shareâ€" holders and cepositors in this provâ€" ince during the last few years.

The disastrous {ailure of the Farmâ€" ers‘ Bank and othker recent failures of _ Canadian chartered banks emâ€" phasize the need of a thorough sysâ€" tem of Government of other outside Ansâ€"ection. The total inadequacy . of the present Bank Act is shown in the freedom of bank managers and directors to manipulage the affairs of the bank for their own personal beneâ€" fit and to engage in reckless speculaâ€" tion with trust funds that is | liable to wreck the strongest financial _ inâ€" stitution. The result of allowing this freedom from any sort cfi _ outside supervision has been painfully brought home to the. shareholders and deâ€" positors of _ the , defunct _ Farmers‘ Bank, with an efficient | system of Bank, and which an efficient system of inspection would have prevented. !m:;:':l‘" published ¢%: n-' ~David Bean, Proprietor Nobilce d'dug‘-n- Te Jeft ut this I%.m later Saturday noon. _ The copy for changes must not be BANK JINSPECTICN ARE APPOINTED 6. alt‘s popular orâ€" about 1°0 memâ€" croved its ctuhâ€" is beon secured formaily manufactute and a 6 1 K.

The meeting was very enthusiastic, and was a sufficient criterion of the future success of the organization. The Association _ should te one _ to which each farmer in the county should be proud of being a member. About one hundred members have alâ€" ready been enlisted. The organization is the result of the numerous horse thefts in the county of late, and the farmers realizing the extent of loss of property they are liable "to incur without some _ means of protection, have taken an earnest interest in the matter. & â€" An important feature of the meetâ€" ing was the addition of cattle to the list which the Association will proâ€" tect.

He informed them _ that he was sorry they had not presented their sugâ€" gestions one or two months ago, on } account of the facs that the House | opened on Tuesday and the members | of the Cabinect wore very busy, but ~ he promised to take up the sugâ€" gestions at the very carliest opporâ€" tunity, and to inform the labor un ions of what gction had been taken.

PROPOSALS OF Ortawa, Jan. 19.â€" iresenting | the Government bill prohibiting the use of white phosphomus in the manulacâ€" ture of matches and the sale or imâ€" portation of the same, Hon. Mackenâ€" zie King in a vigorous address _ set forth the determination of the Govâ€" ernment to put an end to the terrible dangers which occurred through . the use of this poison. His measure was passed upon the British legislation of 1908, which had been ad~oted by the leading countries of Europe. The Minister quoted from the reports of the English departmental officers and of Dr. J. B. Andrews of New York published in the United States Burâ€" eau of Labor to show the results which have attended the use of white phosphorus in the â€" manufacture _ of matches in the development _ of a loathsome disease known as necrosis or ‘"‘phossy jaw,"" which both medical and surgical science had hitherto been unable successfully to cope with. Hon. Mr. King informed the House that all the European countries, with the cxception of Norway and Sweden and Russia, which have regulations of their own, had formed an internaâ€" tional convention on the prohibition of the poison. Canada had been apâ€" pealed to to enter the _ convention. The Minister directed attention to a harmless substitute, sesqui sulphide, the holders of the patent of which were ready to assign the same to three trusters to deal with upon any basis they deemed proper. He was also glad to say he had been assured of no obstruction from the match manufacturers of Canada. More imâ€" portant in the Minister‘s opinion than the conservation of the : natural reâ€" sources was the conservation of the human resources. | Mr. W. B.
