...other hand, are furious loyalists, affect a lofty scorn for the "States," and send their boys when they can afford it, to the great English universities. I think if the number of Canadians on the rolls at Cambridge and Oxford were noted, they would be found to equal fully the number of Californians in Harvard. Time, the great destroyer of prejudice alone, can turn our Canadian brothers to our colleges, which meanwhile we must make as liberal and attractive for them as possible...
...suggested in Monday's CRIMSON cannot be too strongly urged. Such a course would not only help us to realise "the relation of what happens to-day with what has happened in the past, and to appreciate the relative importance of two newspaper articles with headings of equal prominence, but would help us to understand the bearing of to-days doings on the future.

...part to congestion and inflammation of the stomach. Alcohol diminishes the secretion of gastric-juice. In St. Martin it was noticed that alcohol caused the blood to ooze from the lining of the stomach. The liver is affected as are also the intestines. One ounce of alcohol is equal to two ounces of brandy; to five ounces of strong wine, as sherry; to ten ounces of weak wine, as claret; to one pint of beer. If these quantities are increased one half, 1 1-2 ounces of absolute alcohol will be taken, and the limit of moderation for strong...
