Let the Children
Have a Telephone
The older folks find the telephone a necessity in
running errands, making appointments and canceling
engagements, but children need a telephone too.
You should make the children happy by install
ing a Bell Telephone for them. They can only be
children once. It may not cost as much as you
think it does.

Not Likely to Be Heard of Again
Soon in Canadian House.
Canada faces a new situation
developed from the fact that reciproc
ity with the United States has been
rejected, that the Hurler government
has been defeated and that H. L. Dor
den will shortly he called on to form
a Consenative ministry. That the
changes enacted by the registration of
the will of the electorate are radical
la shown by the overwhelming major
ity whereby the voters turned down
the agreement which Ijuirler had
made with the United States for the
mutual removal of duties on food and
other Mturftl products, by the defeat
of seven cabinet ministers out of thir
teen who went to the polls, and by
the political landslide which will re
tire to private life Sir Wilfrid Iaurler,
i in- of the bigSMl figures in the Brit
ish empire.
Ab for the reciprocity agreement, It
Is not likely to be heard of again soon
in the Canadian house. Any measure
of this Kind must be Introduced from
the go eminent side and it is not like-
'y that Mr. Borden and his followers
will make any move in the matter.
There is conrlderable Interest manifest
ed in the view which the people or
the United States will take of the
overwhelming rejection of reciprocity.

MBMt in the same class. The change

Llberte, One of Largest Battleship;
in Navy, Destroyed by Explosion at
Toulon Fire Spreads to Magazines.
Cruiser Republique Damaged.
Toulon, France, Sept. 26. Accurate
estimates of the dead and injured vic
tims ot the explosion of the battle
ship Liberte are still unavailable.
They may not fireatly exceed 400. The
preliminary explosions gave warnings
and many of the men threw them
selves into the sea and were picked
up by small boats and taken to the
other ships of the squadron or ashore.
The first uiarm of fire was sounded
Shortly after 5 a. m. This was fol
lowed by four successive explosions
of Increasing intensity as the fire
reared the powder magazines, when a
deafening explosion literally tore the
great warship to pieces and sent It to
the bottom, a mass of twisted wreck
age.
The fierce explosion was so great
that great flrsures were opened In
the steel armor and frame work ol
the warship. A piece of armor pltfte
was hurled against the cruiser Re
publique with great force, damaging
its plates. Scores of bodies wen;
hurled high into the air with huge
fragments of frame work, armor,
bursting shells and the suffocating
moke from the exploded magazines.
At the first explosion the men be
low, suddenly awakened, tumbled from
their berths and rushing to the side3
of the vessel were throwing them
serves overboard when an order call
ing them to their stations rang out
and held to their death those who had
not already escaped.
The I.iberte was anchored in the
roadstead, WhdTO it has been since
the review or the fleet by President
Fallieres on Sept. 4. Particular sig
nificance was attached to tbe review,
the most imposing In the history of
the French navy, as it was made on
the very day that France communi
cated to Germany the terms on which
the republic offered a settlement of
the Moroccan dispute with Germany.
Following the review the fleet re
ctum d tbe autumn maneuvers and gun
practice. On Sept. 20 the armored
cruiser Glolre was. encaged in target
work, WtMMI 'i pot gun exploded as a
projectile was being inserted in the
breech One gunner was killed and
thirteen others were injured. Five of
the latter subsequently died.
