Two metila a day is all Lord Strathcona has had for years, and on hie 00th birthday he made no exception to the rule. He rose at eight o'clock, breakfasted at nine, and then proceeded to deal with his correspondence and callers. Twelve o'clock found him at the Canadian Offices discharging his duties as High Commissioner, and he did not leave until eight in the evening. At nine he had his second meal —dinner. Often his lordship has returned to his office after dinner ar.d worked till past midnight. And because a light is to be seen burning there at all times, the Canadian Office is known by the nickname of "The Lighthouse."
