SANKS OF CANADA GAIN ;
PEOPLE'S SAVINGS BIG.
Record of Financial InstitutIons for
, the Year 1905 Shows Remarkable
Prosperity All Over the Dominion.
Ottawa , Canada , March l.-The , year
. which has juat closed has been 000 ot
, the most satisfactory and progressive
with the financial Institutions of Canada -
ada , and the business ot the chartered -
ed books refiects the unprecedented
. , prosperity enjoyed throughout the
"
country during the year 1905.
The Increased demands made upon
he banlts of the Dominion by the commercial -
mercial and agricultural expansion of
the 'year were proylded for without
the monetary , dlRturbanees sometlmoo
. notcd In the United States. Whatever
opinions may be held as to the com-
I. , position of the Canadian banldng system -
tem , It Is claimed that Its fiexlble
currency has many commendable
features , and without which the last
few months of the year must have produced -
.
- . . duced a money stringency with probably -
. ably disastrous results. It Is felt that
a wider field of credit In the Dominion
Is needed , nnd consequently the capital -
tal , of man- : existing banltlng' institutions -
tions has been Increased and several
new banlts .are In progress of organiza-
tion.
. The chartered banks of Canada to.
, , day enjoy the confidence of the general -
eral public to a greater extent than
I ever before. The total deposits of the
people In these Institutions last year
were $522,317,000. which shows an In
Y cl'easo of over $56,000,000 for the year.
) In actual money In banl { probably no
other country in the world , com para-
. i tlvely spealdng , can malte a bettor
I f" showing than Canada.
I The total doposlts of , the Canadian
people in the Government savings
, ' , d' banlts , In special savings Institutions ,
7 ( . and In the chartered ban Its alone
" " amounted last yetr to the enormous
Bum of $60J,454.000. ! This represents
an average credit balance ot over
$100 per head of the population of the
Dominion , and it is stated that the
only other country In the world that
approaches this record Is Denmark ,
fr where the average credit balance Is
nbout $ ! J6.50 per capita. The above
figures , however , do not comprehend
moneys depslted with private banlt-
( irs , loan co'lnpanles , mortgage corporations -
porations and trust companies , or
what Is hoarded up In secret hiding
places.
The annual report of the Dominion
finance department , which has just
been issued to the public , shows a
. : : surplus In the Dominion treasury for
the fiscal year ot $7,863,000 , and refers
. to the remarkable Increase In the pu\ \ ) .
lie revenues during the year.

I HIS u1)OV'BLEn AN1J "T'RI'PLE" ,
The question whether mere man be
allowed to gaze at beautiful woman' '
reminds me how I played for this
privilege my Qwn "doublo" and
"trlplo. " I wallted down f\'om the museum -
seum on n Sunday afternoon and I
met near 43d street a lady who In
complexion , form and expression
struck me as , one of the most , beautiful -
ful young women I had ever seen. I
could cast only a sidelong' glance at
her beauty , and longing 'for a second
look I hurried through 43d street ,
boarded a Madison avenue car , rode
up to 63d street and wallted quietly
down 5th avenue for the second time.
I saw the lady near 611t : street. Of
course , everybody wns looltlng at her ,
but , engaged In a lively conversation
with a gentleman , she seemed as unconscious -
conscious of the admiring glances as
of her own ber"ty. Assured that she
never noticed POOtme , I could not resist -
sist the temptation of trying for a
third 1001 , . I hastened around the ca-
thedral. rode up to 5Jth ! street and
wall\Cd qulen ) . down 5th avenue for
the third time.
I met the lad ) ; nenr 5Jth ! street.
This time she saw me and ga'e mo
a singular , startled , half.frlghtened
look which I could not explain. I
wnllted on In deep thought , but cQuld
not help being aware that several persons -
sons stared at me with the same
startled look. and there was a singular -
lar something In the 1001s that made
me feel as If I were a ghost walldng
the streets.
At 57th street I met an old gentleman -
man with his wife whom I remembered -
bored to have scen hObbling along
near 43d streQt. When the old man
saw me he seemed lo throw up his
hands , his e'es bulged out and his
mouth opened. I did tlot lenow what
to male of it. I had never' made any
sensatton by my appearance , and I
thought It best to pass quietly on ,
when I heard the old man cry out
excitedly : "Great God , Mary , wo
ha\'e seen that man's double , and here
comes his triple ! "
It dawned upon me that It is rather
an extraordlnar ) ' thing to meet the
same man three times In fourteen
blocls walllng along In the same dl. !
rectlon In three different places , and' '
I quietly disappeared , with my "dou-
ble" and "triple" and a quadruple
sense of my foolishness , in the next
side street.-"D. S. " , In New York

There are no chieftains in the Es.
l\1mo community. They all regard
themselves as , free men , WIUl an equal
right to hunt , fish , sleep and eat. E\-
er'body shifts for himself. He is
Absolutel- and unconditionally inde-
pendent. His onh' ambition Is to be
a good hunter and to rear sons who
wll1 Inherit his sl\ll1 with lance and
harpoon. He has helped himself
against the elements for centuries and
the white man descending on his
shores , ostensibly to confer the bless.
Ings of civilizatLon , has never been
able to improve his condition but o'nly
to detract from the old time happiness
and advantagcs of the aboriginal E-s.
klmo community.
Dr. Frldtjof Nansen , Captain Helm ,
Dr. Salager and several other explorers -
ers have pointed out that an approach
to civilization means to the Esltlmo a
slow but certain process of deteriora-
tion. In almost every instance where
the experiment has been tried. such
as around the Godthaab settlements.

the Esl\lmo , confounding the virtucs
and vices of civilization , h-.s : even been I
made a victim of the latter at the ex.
pense of his own native virtues. In
his natural state he leads a natural
life on natural principles. No law tells
him he must not lie. yet he never lies ;
no law tells him he must not kill , stealer
or cause suffering mong his tribe ,
any ) 'et he never Itl1ls , steals or auses
trouble.
The natural helpfulness of the Es-
ltlmo Is the basis of the socialistic
state in which he lJves. He wiII risk
his life to save that of allother , even
his enemy , He will share the spoils
of the hunt " . .lth his neighbors. If
his neighbor dies and his wlfo Is left
alone with children he will provide
for her until she marries again. He
does not slander or tell tales ; he does
not abuse anyone and he does not
fight. Ho Is a man of peace. He loves
peace for Its own sale and his life is
one long , laborious attempt at happiness -
ness for himself and his people.

Mark Twnln on one occasion intro ,
duced Senntor Hawley of Connecticut
o a political gathering in New York
state. Mr. Clemens told the audrenco
that the ) ' could banlt on the senator's
honesty , for although his back yard

Hawley he had never lost a single

watched the general as ho passed the

tional church he had never seen him

closing he said : "Now , my friends ,
