Dealers in Hardware, Stone and Tinware, Miners', Lumbermen's and Sawmill Supplies, etc., Plumbing and Tinsmltbing. Tl.e ladies of the Catholic church are feeling happy over the result of the bazaar given by them in Selkirk Hall on Nov. 19th. In spite of the many other attractions on that date, a goodly crowd gathered together, and if one may judge by the continuous bursts of laughter, all spent a :iost enjoyable evening. The fancy work table, Ihe candy table and the fish pond were well patronized, while the doll—a dainty bride—kept people "guessing" who should eventually carry her off. Mr. George Bell being the fortunate one to guess the exact number of beans in the dish, is now her possessor. The donkey with bis many tails was truly wonderous and greatly amused both young and old. Miss Vera Bell succeeded in placing a tail where it belonged and is now the owner of the handsome jug which was given as a ptize. Master Morgan received a box of note paper for doing likewise. The band played whenever they could find an interval and their music was much appreciated. Tea, coffee, cake and s.indwiohes were served throughout the alternoon and evening. * The drawing was last in order, but not in interest. It resulted as follows: First prize—A Christmas cake, drawn by ticket No. 38, purchased by Mr. R. Robertson, Balmoral Castle, city.

On all sides we sec evidences ol Unenterprising and persevering clinracter for which the citizens of Revelstoke havo ever been famed, Few cities there arc, in the province, who possess even half as many modern conveniences and improvements as is possessed by Revelstoke, not only in handsome business buildings mid residence., well const uctcd sidewalks, recreation grounds, institutions and transportation facilities, but in such beneficial and necessary adjuncts to a city, as electrio light, water supply and telephone system, Tho two former now are tho property of tl.e city, thc latter still in the hands of ils enterprising promotor, Wm. Cowan, who ie perhaps the first pioneer in the work of modernizing Revelsloke aud who is primarily responsible for tbe carrying out of all then* three splendid institutions. Tl.e telephone system is without doubt ono of the best and most valu- al le innovations that our city can boast of and it has been entirely due to the untiring efforts and energetic persistence that we have today one ol the beet telephone systems in tbe province, Mr. Cowan has still further shown the spirtt of enterprise, not only for his own benefit but ohiefly Ior the benefit ol Revelstoke, in the construction ol the telephone line to Arrowhead, a distance of 28 miles. The work has been curried out with considerable expense and labor, but today we can enjoy perfect communication by speech along the new line.

Mr. Cowan, president of the Revelstoke, Big Bend and Trout Lake Telephone Co., is to be higlily congratulated and complimented on the success ol llis undertaking. NEW TOWNSITE.

No conformation of this rumor can be obtained, and il ia believed that, the government lias not yet decided the matter, but tliis suggestion falls in with the growing feeling in high quarters here that the Wiishiiigti.il embassy should be filled by a man of exceptional weight, who possesses, in addition to political influence, a sympathetic, understanding of the American people, SKATES !

Hill and is one ol the finest in the interior of British Columbia, being estimated to carry seven hundred million feet of cedar, fir and white pine ol excellent quality. The price paid was away up iu six figures and the parties benefitting by the deal are all local men — consequently, this deal is ol more real importance to the district than any other large timber deal thnt lias yet taken place here, as all the money remains here with men who are foremost in assisting by their capital and brains in developing this part of the interior.

SATURDAY, NOV. 24, 1906 THE WAY OF TRANSGRESSORS I For some reason or other, known only to the perpetrators of the offence, a report bus been industriously circulated to the effect that a certain prominent local government ollicial wns a probable candidate in .lie opposition interests at the next local provincial elections. We have authority to say that no government ollicial in the Revelsloke riding has any intenthn or desire ol becoming a candidate nnd that the parties circulating Btich a report will do well to bear in mind the lact that like nil other falsehoods, this has been circulated to injure the person whose name was connected with it. COMING WEST. The"T<ventieth Century lor Canada" has oft been nutted and the Canadian people have time and ngain had this teaching instilled into their minds. Without a doubt, in reviewing the history of Canada in years past nnd following up the events which have one by one led ber to tbe position of prominence whicli she holds today, it can easily be seen how we deserve tbe title, not only hy dogged persiatance but also by shrewd business capabilities, and to such an extent have we today pushed forward and upheld our claims and possibilities thnt practically every nation hns been forced to don her thinking cap and consider what attitude she shnll adopt to obtain a share in the riches and prosperity of this fair western country. For the last year or two Urinsh Columbia has been, one might say, tbe most prominent of any province in the Dominion and this position lias been attniued by the enterprise of her people and by the wonderful lesources of which she has truly a vas! store. These treasures both of the forest snd of the mines have lured outside ciijiital into our midst aud once started the stream will not easily I-e turned. There ap|ieais little doubt that British Columbia is on the eve of a great boom, not one, that like a bubble, will swell and then burst, but a steady, solid gradual increase. The grui! timber resources are being exploited in response to the call for lumber, Revelstoke basal- ready felt the benelit and will continue lo do so seeing that she is lhe centre ol such a vast urea of forest land. To the mst lies millions of acres of treeless country fast filling up with people, who mu.t have lumber anl who must look to us for it. The mineral resources are being developed .md the results are proving boundless. These things are becoming known .nnl inquiries for farm lands, timber areas and mining pr* perties are Cnii.ing in from all side. The north, the coast and especially the interior are mi attracting capita and settlers. Railroads, always quick to realize a situation, .tr..- building int and through the province, which means money nu'i pi i Western men who have been to tlie east and returned, st.t.- Unit the people back there want to know about our resources und our i-liinale nud wben people set out t" learn about britisli Columbia, much lm- been bc cuinplii-hcd because the most orlti il investigation will only pruve iln desirability ol the province lor tho settler or the capitalist. If our public lands shall be conserved to the public interest and our private enterprise! conducted on a sound basis and go-l principles the results cannot but he successful snd harmonious, To bring about a profitable ami satisfactory result from the commercializing our resources, government! and men must keep their loads. Capital ia coming, people are coming and let us, here in Revelstoke endeavor to lead th stream through our gateway to the interior, when we know tbe possibilities are so great, Our fruit lands ure proving a marvel, our mining resources are praclicnlly iuexbaustable and are proving stores ot wealth, and II Ihe steady, dogged work nf tbe last few years is continued the new comers will catch the enthusiasm and the results will lie almost beyond human iiumaginatiun, specially uiiii.iii'i. to 11 n.im , in*.*, .* ,., Ilevelstoke. Por a city to run smoothly und without any Internal sedition it requires the careful judgment ol those under whom the administration ol such city is conducted and also n certain amount of tact on tbe part of the citizens both as a whole and as individuals. We certainly do not object to those who desire to live mmigst us, and who are willing to accept and Inlfll the obligations of citizenship, and who enter into business Illegitimately and peacefully, be hey ol any European nationality, but what we do most strongly object to is iim dangerous, shiftless nnd doubtful wanderer who drops in from nobody knows whore, and straightway starts n systematical campaign of begging; begging in more than one Betisc of the word, to the annoyance of our peaceful minded citizens and to the possible detriment of the harmony of the city itself. Such men are a source of danger and trouble, causing perhaps dis- SOUtion in our midst, and outraging, perchance, all the moral Iiiwb which are so necessary to the reputation ol a city. Tlie law is exercised and often carried out to its limit over those who belong to this community, wliu have acted in disobedience to tbe laws of city und country. Such punishnwnt very often will prevent the further repetition of these defaults. Rut if the punishment meted out to these iiii-ii is deserved, bow much more should the uttermost sentence of the law be carried out against those who drop in and create turmoil and dis tur banco, commit acts ot violence and disregard every moral and civil law of the country, We should ur.-e that a very severe lesson b.- taught those who are convicted of such acts, nnd if a few ol such gentlemen wen: given a hot rcceplion its well as a send-off such as (bey will never forgot, then perhaps this fraternity will give Revelstoke u very wide berth as a city where tbey can get, no change and what all such characters richly deserve. FIFTH ANNUAL MEETING Of Revelstoke Hospital Society -Financial Statement shows Handsome Balance—Election of Directors. The tilth annual geueral meeting of Ihe Revelstoke Hospital Sooiety was lield in the city hull on Wednesday evening last with the President, T. Kilpatrick, in tbe chair.

H- would suggest having the new wing made us nearly lire proof us possible. He pointed out thut the Ladies' Aid hnd been urging fur a long timo past, the placing ol a verandah nround ihe hos- plnl, but this matter was held off u i il the erection of a wing was pro eroded willi, a» it might bc neieseary when the wing was erected to tear down some of tlie verandah should it lie built now, or indeed that tbo whole design ol the Verandah might prove unsuitable lor the new wing when the plans were finally approved. He Btnted, the satistactorv financial statement that wus presented to the Board, be thought, made it quite feasible to proceed with the erection of tliis new wing early in tlie spring, and have it oompleted next year. Mr. Kilpatrick died said thai be bud nothing more of imopitance to announce to the meeting, but would lie willing tu answer nny questions regarding the statements whicli bad been rend.

' % Self-Improvement JSfil IS THE KEYNOTE OF MANY LETTERS CONCERNING OUR ORGANIZATION ONE of lhe subjects that the majority of the girls i; our new organization have asked for la thnt It shall stand for "self-improvement." I daresay each girl who asks for this has a different lea na to whnt form she would like the self-improvement to take, lind I would like very much to have a few specifications. J suppose there lh no one of us who does not wish to Improve herself. If thero Is, she Is In a very bad way. When we get to the point that ve think we cannot be Improved upen we are possibly very comfortable, but we havo stopped growth. Every now and then we see an evidence of thnt .sort of thing 1 recollect a man I used to know as a young girl who bad a line scorn for all educatlonul advantages beyond a working knowledge of the "threo It's." Ho was much Irritated when he found that his son, a boy rf IB, had tnken a subscription at the library and passed .nnny ot his eVonlngB In the reading room there. "I'll pul a stop to that," be declared, "I've got no use for books. I never bad an education myself, and If I had It wouldn't have helped ine to sell cloth any better." (He wiib a cloth merchant.) "1 don't hold to nil this studying over books." WHAT ESPECIAL LINE DO YOU WISH ? If I am nut mistaken, be died n poor mnn, His lack of education was nol such n potent aid in business, after all. But that sort of man Is an exception. 1 am Inclined to think that nearly all Americans long to Improve theu- ■elves In every way that they can, 1 know that my girls do, If I enn Judge from Ihe letters they send me. The only trouble seems to be In knowing JUBt how to do It. 1 bad fl lettrr the other day that Illustrated this -mint. A young girl wrote to me from a little country town. i.he bad had only a country school education, mid she desired to go beyond what she had learned there. There wns a good library In ber town, and she wanted to know how to Improve herself with the assistance of this library. What should she read? Would I send her a list of books? That was a hard question to answer. It was like .isklng how much it would con to build a house, (without mentioning if the house were to bo of wood, brick or stunc; If It were to contain four rooms or forty. So I wrote and asked the girl ln what line she was particularly Interested; Jf she wished to know something of ancient or of ..lodcrn history, and If bj, of which countries; If she preferred fiction to fact, and the likt. With such knowledge that one enn advise more intelligently. And so 1 usk you girl,-- who wish for self-Improvement whal especial line you wish to uike. Do you mean study WHAT MY MANY GIRL FRIENDS ASK Mrs. Herriclc's Department ol Questions and Answers— Helps for Correspondent, A GROUP SUGGESTIVE OF THE "SELF-IMPROVEMENT" IDEA of literature or of history, of art, of music, of current events, of social conditions, of philanthropic wor1*:, of science, of nature, of what? You must, each of you, have some bent- What is it? When you have made up your mind to this the way for growth and Improvement '■» cpen to you. Our organlratlon Is going to help all you girls almg these lines, In the first place, talking It over among yourselves will be of great benefit. I heard lt once said of a man Hint hc "thought with his lungs." It was not said In a complimentary way, but 1 think myself that It Is a very helpful way to think. When you talk out things Jt nld« you to put vour own ideas Into form and to accept this am! reject that, So it is going to be n big assistance In crystallizing plans when all, or some of you girls, get together personally or on pnper and decide how you are to pel about tho work of self-Improvement. Then, another way in which our association r,;i] be of advantage is in providing you with companions In your work. When once you girls have talked things over a bit yon will lind that one group of you wish to study one thing, and one another. Here Is a set of girls who are crazy about art and artists. Perhaps some of them wish to study art some day nnd become painters or Illustrators. Or perhaps they only love pictures, with no thought of making them themselves, Hut tbey all wish to rend about tho great painters, to follow out their lives, to study up on this one or thnt, tracking him all through his career by means of biographies, as w-dl ns by Hctlon, thnt may Lave been written nbout him. They want to know hlm In his life and In IiIb art Can't you see a knot of such girls taking up Rembrandt or Titian or Raphael or Michael An- gelu or one of the more modern painters and studying about him? Or.perhaps, some of the other girls are eager over American history. Tbey long to know nbout the Colonial days, and will pore ove* sucn a book as Hawthorne's "House of the Seven Gables" and wonder what lt Is all .ibout. There Is plenty for them tc study, ond they will form a history clngB among themselves. Or some one else Is Interested ln the French Revolution, that has been brought so close to us of late by comparisons in the papers between that and the revolt In Russia. They would like to take some such book as 'The Tale of Two Cities" as a starting point, and then read all they could lay hold of about thc Reign of Terror and the days when the guillotine ruled In France. That will lead them to other *.hlngs In French history—the study of Napoleon, for one, with nil tbe delightful literature and drama and nrt that cluster nbout him—and they have bad the door opened for them into another world. Possibly thero nre girls who nre less ambitious than this, They sav, some of them—1 have had letters from them—"I was too busy to do much school work. I lad to go to earning money too early. Now I am >lder and have more time, and I would like to make up some of the things I missed when 1 was n child." Fur them, too, there should be help In our organization. There are enough of them to form n branch for Improving their writing, their spelling, their grammar and theli familiarity with many simple things. Do you see how it is going to be, girls? What arc you going to do? Does your line lie In uny one of these directions, or In some other that I have not mentioned? How do you wish to Improve yourself, each one of you? Lot me hear from all of you. There will surely bo enuugu of each kind to form circles within circles, "But," says ono of them, "I have so little time. All this sounds ns If lt would take a great deal. I have my work to do, and I can't give myself up to study." My dear child, of course you can't! No one expects you to do It. Have you any idea of what can be done with A Suggestion for "Scribbler" Dear Mrs. Herrick: In looking over your page nothing Interested me ag much as fwr dlicouraged "Scribbler's" letter. Owing to a misunderstand- n»t wllh u girl trlend, I was thought to bo wholly In the wrong, Ktui so I can heartily sympathise with the feelings of "Scribbler," thut no one cared (or me. Like her, I lind I have a few friends that 1 think are ■true blue," yet there is always that feeling thut l wonder if they are sincere and lt they really care for me. It lms been a Httle over a year since my experience, und 1 uv, ' Make new acquaintances every time," un.l if any of the old friends show that ihey want to continue the old friendship. keep llieni by all means, In experiences like this we lind out Who are our true friends. If "Scribbler," ub she calls herself, wants to Improve herself, ran 1 be of any assistance to her by her writing to nu- personally, and In thut way get composition, writing, etc., all together? She urn write me on any subject, and If she Is In another Stale than I hi* there ir.ay be many place-*, etc, one mighi like to ask nbout, antl il would prove much more interesting coming direct from one pert on to another. Convey my message to her, and if I can bt ol any use will be glad to help you or your glrla in any way. L, It. H. Here Is a suggestion which "Scribbler" can answer tor herself, 1 am glad thai she and "L. R. H." have found u point in common, and yet I do not like to hear old friends spoken of too carelessly. The new ones are very well, but one cannot lightly break away from old -vies. Be very sure of tbe unworthlness of the friend and your own lack of fault before you condemn unreservedly. And be sure, too, that there Is not only a little misunderstanding that cuuld be cleured by explanation. for pointing out to you that It might be worse. You have tbe home, at least, and you are able to keep it up. You huve resources fn yourself. You are a pianist, you say, and you have a love for study. You write a good letter. Do you ever stop to think how much worse off you would be If you did not have these things In yourself? The love of books provides one with a way to escape for a time from one's troubles, and the love for music does as much or more. But thut does not mean to Imply that your lot is not a hard one, Only, you must not get discouraged. You nre young vet, and you never know what may happen. A big part of the world lies before a girl of 81. You may peel a man you cure for und who cares for you, and he may be able to contribute numcthing towurd the support of the family and thus lighten tbe burden of your sister. If he is lb" right sort of man be will consider it a privilege to do this. Your circumstances may brighten In many o -er ways, You ask what you are to do with your life. I should say to go abend and do the best you can. losing no chance of self-Improvement. Try to go out a little, if you think It will make you happier. I acknowledge that it is hard for n woman to feci happy when she ts not well dressed, But there are associations In which dress counts for little. Can you not nvet with persons of that type? Above nil, remember, my dear child, that all this hard time should be making you stronger, finer, better, more helpful, more sympathetic. The time may come whon you wiil lcok beck on 1: with thankfulness for the patience and courage you gained ln the struggle. Let me hear from you again. Ask Your Instructor Dear Mrs. Herrick: I am li yeara of age, and have been taking lessons on a cornet two months, and my Instructor tella me of a young lady who pluys the same Instrument and he says If I could get acquainted with her sift- could help me quite a little. Please (ell me how I could get acquainted, as I don't like to ask mv Instructor to introduce us, Thanking you ln Advance, I remain WAITING, There is no reason why you should not secure an ntro- ductlon through your Instructor. 1 can think of no better way. A Letter From a Man Dear Mrs. Herrick: This may seem to you most uncalled for, but nfter rending your paper, in which you give advice to your girls to assume the dignity which becomes n woman on or on* the street. I cannot resist saying a word or two. I am a young man, una have observed that there exists at the present day among the young Wan:: to be a Nurse Dear Mrs. Herrick: I am a young girl of 20. now employe,) in the suit department Of tne of the city's Inrge stores. I huve been there two years, •nd as I have had no promotion I feel rather dissatisfied, For many years I have thought of being a nurse, and only went Into tbe store until my age would penult my training for a nurse. I want to know where would be the best place to train and how to make my application j that is, do I have to have a doctor's influence, and, also, Jc I have to have a knowledge of foietgn anguages ? What is the required age. and do you have to pass a -lector's •Mt-.tiiif.alh:.? Respectfully, E. T S. I have bad a numoer of letters on this subject, and I give the same advice lo you that I have to .hose who have asked for personal answers. Your best plan ts to go to a good hospital In your own city and find out details. Ask for the bead nurse and have a talk with her, or tlnd out what you wish to know from your family physician. I say this because the rules vary In different hospitals. In some cities 21 Is the minimum uge for a woman to enter as a student; in others It s 23 and 24, and an effort Is being made to raise It. In some private hospitals glrla are admitted even younger than 21. The conditions vary also. Some hospitals p.y nurses a little something from the first; in otherB the nurses work some weeks without pay. A knowledge of foreign languages Is desirable, but 1 do not ihlni; It Is obligatory. A nurse's health must be good and she muBt have no serious organic complaint. Don't Get Discouraged Iwur Mrs. Herrick: My letter Is a long one, still I hope you will read It through to the very end, for to-night I feel that 1 must empty my heart to you. J am 21 years old and am not very strong, nnd the very serious question rises before me with a deep earnest ntn, "What •hall I do with my life?" I had a hurried course through the grammar sch.->nl, and With a great love for study won for myself a high mark before graduating. Kor the last seven years my father has been an Invalid, unable to do even light work, Ho, you sec, ull my great desire to go further In study could not be considered, Shortly after graduating 1 waa placed in a position by a friend, at piecework, where the pay wae very good, und I um In the sume business bouse still- 1 im the oldest of the family, and a great burden reste upon my shoulders. Lately, however, my younger sister ii working, thus lightening mv thoughts in every way. We- my sister and myself-are farced to deprive ourselves of not only what we want but what we need; and that means a great drill to a girl, you know! 1 have my little dream, as do other girls, and have often wondered, if I had a chance to marry, placing myself in a nice borne (a chance that 1 hive not), what would become of my poor father and mother, who, when I was belpleea and de- ffiident, tolled to keep me In comfort And could I be really appy knowing that my young sister was left to battle on Alone ln the field I chose to forsake ? You will say I am a brave girl and all that, but where Is tbe encouragement? Such a life grows heavy after yeara. and It li hard to ask a girl In my place what she lu going to do with ber life, What can eh* do? Her hands are tied. What la her place In society? Her drees Is sbubby! Her friend's ia not! Can she enter with a happy amlle nnd light, Joyous manner when her heart is breaking within her? I have grown old-fashioned and settled—do not care to go •out—too tired when work ie over. Am sick a great deal. I leal that I wllh to make something of myself.

I Intend to study your Idea about a name. I am one of your girls, M. Mel* "GoodWill" for Her Mono Dear Mis. Herrick. I think the idea of organizing a club Is a very good plan, and 1 think a fit name • for this club would bo "The Good-Will Correspondence Club"; with '-Quod Will" for Iheir motto, und have a badge In the shape of a slur, with their motto engraved on it. A. G. S. Earning Money Dear Mr*. Herrick: The majority of your girl writers ask how can ihey earn money. Now I think an organization of that kind would be vi ry helplul.

Suggests "Good Cheer" Mv Dear Mrs. Herrick; I think lhat this organizing of ibis corresponding club a grand idea, for there are so niun*! lonely girls in this world, and I do not think there arc many things a girl likes bett.-r than corresponding. The name that I think of Is "Uood Cheer." The object, do a kindness to aome ono every day. which could be used as a motto; also the badge, I think a sliver "U. C. (something like the "C. E-") pin would be very neat, and the colors, If any, be green and cream. Very truly yours, J. M. A. "The Golden Rule" Dear Mrs. Herrick: My great admiration of the delightfully unselfish character of Mrs. Wlggs and her unfailing cheerful assistance of her neighbor!

This Is a wny in which Wo could combine fun, self-culture and practical aid. My plan bun nothing new to moinmend It. I think It hiui been partly suggested before; its only merit is Its feasibility. Still, il may further your idea und help on our organization. One of yuur enthusiastic girls, M. "Alice" ("M.'s" sister) suggest! "Tit for Tat" to symbolise this exchanging.

Have you heard of the "Fif- tccn-MInute Clubs,'' of which thc members give but fifteen minutes nplece a day to some selected line of work? fnc of the best educated men I ever knew said that 'n the midst of a busy life he kept his French fresh by reading It f<>r ten minutes a day. If you determine systematically to give fifteen minutes a day to any one subject you will be Astonished to see how much progress you will have nUde by ilif end of n month. There are popular courses of reading that demand half an hour a day, and that cover nn Immense quantity of ground In a yenr. If nny of ynu wllh tn know more cf these, send me a stamped and et-lf- oddressed envelope for further information. IT ISN'T TO BE AIL STUDY Put it isn't 'o be nli study. Bless your heart, no!

If you will mnke up your minds to rend about a subject. Ihink nbuut tt and will then discuss It with others whi are interested in It, you will be surprised to tlnd how It stimulates your brain.

Pome nf ynu may net be near enough together to meet with great frequency, but the correspondence clubs are for ihem. it Will really be a great benelit to them to put their thoughts into written speech, nnd the friends who pre firmed by letter are hardly less Interesting than those you have met fare to face. I, who know so many of you by your letters, am in a position to speak authoritatively on the subject. There nre scores of other sorts of Improvement.

How many of my gins agree with the young man? I think he has renson on his side. Will "Scribbler" Answer This? Drnr Mrs. Herrick: J have often thought my lot in life Is worse thun any one else's, but when I started to read the letters that you receive I quickly found out the contrary. 1 shall not tire you with my troubles. They ure similar to the girl that signed herself "Scribbler." I would like to correspond with "Scribbler" If she Is willing, nnd I ihink, perhaps, we might help each other a little. At least, we can sympathize with each olher. My experience with young men has been similar lo "Scribbler's." I hnve found them foolish and soft.

On the other hand, no other thought than that of, accomplishment had ever entered thc i little bookkeeper's head.

Hut yuu may not know all the games that can be played with Jackstones. Do you know "Cats in the Well," for Instance? It is played In the following fashion; Roll the Jacks from the hand to the ground; these are lhe cats. Then place your left hand near them, with the first lightly closed, the thumb nnd first linger forming the opening to one well. Jack may now be thrown up, and, while he is In the air, one of the four cats on the ground must be picked up and put ln tho well. Repent the operation with tbe second, third and fourth cats until all have been drowned In tho well. The left hand may now be taken away, leaving the dead cats In a bunch. Now Jack may be tossed up, and this time all four cats must be picked up before Jack comes down. Hero is a game played with a ball, called "Black Baby." Do you know It? It Is a Jolly, noisy game, and must be played ou level, soft ground. Make holes, one for each player, nbout three feet apart and all In a line. Kach boy must stand by and guard his particular bole, while tbo boy at one end tries to roll the ball (use a common hollow India-rubber ball or a soft yarn ball, covered with leather) slowly along tbo line of the boles, so that It will drop iuto the hole at the extreme other ond. If he succeeds, then tho boy at the other end tries to roll It back to hlm ln the same manner. Uut this cannot go on very long wiih,mi ihe ball falling to go the full length of lhe line and dropping Into om< of the many holes between ends. As soon as this tmppens, all tho players except the one who guards tlio hole holding tbe ball scamper away for dear life, orvlllg "Black baby! black baby!" while the boy on guard snatches the ball up and "lires" ll .is html as he can at the boy be thinks be can conm nearest to hltllng. If lm misses the boy, Hmn all ihe players return to their places, and a little piece of cual—a "black baby"— Is put Into the bole that had Just been guarded. If, however, he bits the boy, then tin* boy who was bit must quickly pick up the ball and "tire" it at some one else. This Is the beginning of a wild "crackiiliout," which lasts until some iui,. unluckily misses and henco gi Is a "blaok baby." As soon as any buy gets two "black babies," be is called "black baby half whitewashed," The unlucky boy who first gets three "black babies' must take the ball, walk to a fence or trpe or wall, and, resting his left band and right f'.ol against lhe support (which he must fucc), must thruw tbe ball over one shoulder as far as he can behind him, Then he must bend his back, resting bis bead against the wall, while all the other boys take turns pelting him with the ball, throwing It from the spot where it lighted after hs threw It over bis shoulder. If any boy misses his back, then hf can seize the ball and pelt the misser, The Noble Life True worth is ln being, not seeing; In doing each day that goes by Some tittle good—not in the dreaming Of great things to do by-and-by.

Could ynu tell me of a bleach or lotlen that Is harmless, ij-onsldorlng her age" Her hair Is very dry and at the ends very brittle. It fluffs up so that sometimes she can scarcely braid it. I wash It once every three weeks, sometimes oftener, VERT THANKFUL. I would suggest bleaching your daughter's neck with peroxide of hydrogen. This is effective and quite harmless. Apply it night and morning with a soft rag, allowing it to dry on the skin. You wash your daughter's hair too often, t'nder the circumstances, once in four weeks is quite enough. Clin the ends of her hair with the scissors, shortening It about one inch all over. Then singe lt. Rub the scalp ana the ends with a little vaseline twice a week. Brush her hair a great deal—at least a hundred strokes a day besides its reg- tttar dressing. Reader Advises "W. W. K."

Use camel's- hair brush, boras, benzoin and ammonia freely. Also have used green soap tincture. Can keep them about so, but not get rid of them. N. C. C. The only orange-flower cream that I know of and can recommend is that Published frequently In this department. It will not promote'the growth hair, and can be obtained by tak- Jg my formula to a druggist to be filled. I think your trouble with the oily skin and Its blackheads Is due to a disturbance In the stomnrh or to Improper circulation. Wbea remedies only keep these difficulties in abeyance and do not cure them, the trouble is more deeply seated than in the skin. You should not use astringent lotions when blackheads are present. It only aggravates matters. Do not bother about the enlarged pores until your skin Is In a healthy condition. Use Some Depilatory As I have heard and read on your page of orange-ttower cream, and as i a-J **e a growth of hair o i mv face, f should like to try it. Please send me the recipe for th* orange-flower cream. You are perfectly safe in using this cream on your face. It will not Increase l he, growth of superfluous hair that trouble vou.

And will vou kindly let me know as soon as possible how much and how often to take if PATIENCE. Olive oil can be used with good results both Internally and externally. Massaging with It Is good; also a tablespoonful taken Internally three or four times a day Is beneficial.

I have taken over one quart of it, and still do not see anv difference. What ran be the matter? Kindly tell me how long or how much one should take the remedy. Also, please toll me if there Is anything that wilt cure the blackheads and pimpb-s which continually form on my chin on each earner of mv mouth.

I am afraid I Jtmm wM G medicinal qualities, and t^rrots are good blood-makers. As for onions, they are a sort of tonic, eaten raw. boiled, baked-any way but fried, which Is apt to make them indigestible. When fresh fruits seem too much of a tax upon the digestive organs, the stewed ones may be substituted, but the amount of sugar used should be as little as possible—only enough iu overcome the acidity of the fruit. Whenever pimples make their appearance upon the face or body, It Is usually a sign that the blood needs cooling. Reducing your diet to vegetables and fruit for a few days, eating plenty of the green vegetables and of tomatoes, should accomplish the result without resource to other "medicines." Peaches und pears and plums all serve their purpose as medicines, most of them mildly laxative; all of them splendid appetizers. Grapefruit is as good a tonic, so say Its followers, as quinine, without any of the ill effects following Its UBe us are too apt to follow the taking of quinine. Orange Juice Is nourishing-it 1b said that one could live upon a diet of five or six oranges a duy, and live In good health and spirits, Lemon Juice, squeezed Into hot water, la good to take when you have caught a severe cold. Sugar may be added to make It more paiatible if desired, although, as the stomach Is always more or less upset at the time, the sugar is a little better umitted. and loose hairs separate themselves to hang down in an unsightly fashion, discontinue the regular brushing (with Its downward motions) entirely for awhile, substituting the upward strokes. Keep up the stimulation of the scalp that the brushing has bden giving It by rubbing it with the tip of your lingers, describing circu'ar movements, and pressing lightly but firmly enough at the same i me to give a thorough little kneading to the scalp, which should leave it in a glow. A-.-solute cleanliness is as much a requisite of training the hair as Is the constant brushing. Brushing und carefully .inanging the hair when It has just been washed and treated to a sun- bath s arts ii in the right direction before It hns had time to get Into bad habits. The training of the front hair Into a pompadour has been gone into so fully recently that there needs only ihe addition to the way to make the pompadour droop upon the forehead, which sei-ms to be the hardest part of hair- dressing for many women. A strip of muslin laid over the pompadour, so that the hair is pushed down in au even puff upon the forehead, should be drawn fairly tight and fastened in place. Wear It for an hour or two at night, or even sleep in It for a few nlghts-that Is all that Is necessary to accomplish your ends. Persistent training may make the little loose ends ut the back of the neck stay demurely up In place, but you are much surer of being Just so if you wear one of the little unobtrusive barrettes. Often, when you put up your hair, especially if It has lust been washed, a curious "kink" will make one lock stick out In an awkward line. The usual way Is to push It under tho rest of the hair, trusting to an Invisible hairpin to keep It In subjection. The better way Ib to take vour hair down again, and patiently brush away until the kink resolves Itself into the smooth surface. Letting it stay In Is only encouraging your hair In a bad habit. tyofJ& wondfAs, have noticed It for the ttmt three months, snd hate to go to a doctor. Is there any way you can help me? VIOLET.

I am afraid your trouble with catarrh is a matter for medical advice, lhe physician Is the one lo consult at sueh a time; though I have known cases where cold water baths and plenty of fresh nlr and exercise havo permanently cured this disease i have known, ton, where the simple remedy of salt and water has been very beneficial.

Vakcouvkk, Nov. 23.—Robertson & Hackett's Saw and Planing Mills, situated on the north side ot False creek were tho scene ol » big lire last Tuesday evening, when the factory, moulding rooms, glazing room and store rooms of the mill were completely gutted. The urigin of the fire H unknown, but it is believed tu hnve been caused by a "hot box" in the machinery in the factory. It was the second big mill eotillngra- tiin that has occurred in Vanoouver in ihe past two months, the other being the Heaps' lire. The blaze wns discovered about six minutes past 6 o'clsck in the evening. The alarm was immediately given, and while one of the employees rushed to a telephone to send iu tho alarm to the fire department, utlicr mill hands, including a number ol tlij Japanese workmen who reside close by, lost no time in bringing the mill firo equipment into service, ^ After tho lirst alarm the whole fire lighting force turned out and endeavored to centralize the lire and prevent the conflagration spreading. Not belore tbo whole factory moulding room, stoie mon. and glazing rooms were gulled wus the IIro got under. In reply tu a query as tu whether the factory would be rebuilt, Mr. Itutierteon stated that it would be rebuilt but not on tho lursier site. It is particularly unfortunate lhat tho lire should occur at tliis time when the mill was rushed with work and many orders were on hand fur building material. As a result of the tire between 25 and 30 factury hands will be thrown nut of employment. HUDSON BAY TO EUROPE Railroads Applying for Charters to Bay. Winnipeg, Nuv. 24— Tho Hudson Bay route to Europe is receiving much attention at the present time in the Canadian Northwest. It,will bring this country a thousand miles nearer Europe and by the saving in the price of transportatiun will give the farmers of western Canada practical cuntrul of the grain markets of the world. There is not much question ol the practicability of the route and no better confirmation of .this is needed than the fact that no less than eight railroad companies have applied to the Dominion Government for charters lor lines to Hudson Bay Irom various points in the interior of Canada. Some ol these are now being built Iron, the south and from the west. The Canadian Northern is building a line from the Prince Albert branch and expect to hnve it completed in 18 months. Active construction by tl.e Hill lines in the direction of Hudson's Bay has been carried on through the past summer. The Canadian Pacific and the Grand Trunk railways also have not been slow to size up the -iiunlion and will be well to the fure iu the race for the Bay. It is expected they will start work in this direction early in the coming spring. CARD OF*THANKS.
