TROVE and the bank official were ln Hillsborough soon after sunrise the morning of that memorable day. The young man rapped loudly ou the broad door at the Sign of the Dial, but within all was silent. Tbe day before Darrel had spoken of going off to the river towns and must have started. A lonely feeling came into the boy's heart as he turned away. He went promptly to the house of the district attorney and told all he knew of tbe money tbat he bad put in the bank. He recounted all that took place the afternoon of bis Stay at Robin's Inn—the battles of tbe cocks, and the spider, and how tbe wounded fowl had probably sprinkled his sleeve with blood. In half an hour news of the young man's trouble hud gone to every bouse ln the village. Soon a score of his schoolmates and half the faculty were at his side—there ln the room of justice. Theron Allen arrived at 0 o'clock, although at that hour two responsible men had already given a bail bond. After dinner Trove, a constable and the attorney rode to Robin's Inn. Thd news had arrived before them, but only the two boys and Tunk were at home. The latter stood ln front of the Stable, looking earnestly up the road. "Hello!" said he, gazing curiously at horse and men as they came up to the door. He seemed to be eying tbe attorney with hopeful anticipation. "Tunk," said Trove cheerfully, "you have a mournful eye." Tunk advanced slowly, still gazing, both bands in his trousers pockets. "Ez Tower just went by," said be, with suppressed feeling. "Said you was arrested for murder." "I presume you were surprised." "Waal," said he, "Ez ain't said a word before in six months." Tunk opened the horse's, mouth and stood a moment peering thoughtfully at his teeth. "Kind of unexpected to be spoke to by Ez Tower," he added, turning his eyes upon them with the same curious look. The interrogation of Tunk and the two boys began immediately. The story of the fowl corroborated, the sugar bush became an object of Investigation Milldam was ten miles away, and it was quite possible for the young man to have ridden there and back between the hour when Tunk left him and that of sunrise, when he met Mrs. Vaughn at her door. Trove and Tunk Hosely went with the officers down a lane to the pasture and thence Into the wood by a path ttiey followed that night to and from the shanty. They discovered nothing new save one remarkable circumstance tbat baffled Trove and renewed the waning suspicion of the men of the law. On almost a straight line from bush to barn were tracks of a man that showed plainly where they came out of the grass upon the garden soil. Now, the strange part of It lay In this fact—the boots of Sidney Trove exactly fitted the tracks. They followed the footprints carefully Into the meadow grass and up to the stalk of the mullein. Near the top of It was the abandoned borne of tbe spider and around It were the four snares Trove had observed, now full of prey. "Do not disturb the grass here," said Trove, "and I will prove to you that tbe tracks were made before the night ln question. Do you see the four ,webs?" "Yes," said the attorney. "Tbe tracks go under tbem," said Trove, "and must, therefore, bave been made before the webs. I will prove to you tbat tbe webs were spun before 2 o'clock of the day before yesterday. At tbat hour I saw the spinner die. See, ber lair Is deserted." He broke the stalk of mullein and tbe cables of spider silk that led away from it, and all Inspected the empty lab-. Then be told of that deadly battle ln tbe grass. "But these webs might bave been tbe work of another spider," said tbe attorney. "It matters not," Trove Insisted, "for tbe webs were spun at least twelve hours before tbe crime. One of them contains the body of a red butterfly with starred wings. We cut the wings tbat day, and Miss Vaughn put them ln a book she was reading." Paul brought the wings, whlcb exactly fitted the tiny torso of tbe butterfly. They could discern the footprints, one of which had broken tbe ant's road, while another was completely covered by the butterfly snare. "Those tracks were made before the webs, that ls evident." said the attnr- i ney. ' ''De** you _now who made the tracts ?'* "I do not," was the answer of the young man. Trove remained at Robin's Inn that night, and after the meu had gone be recalled a circumstance that was like a flash of lightning ln tbe dark of his great mystery. Once at the Sign of the Dial his friend the tinker had shown him a pair of new boots. He remembered they were of the same size aud shape as those he wore. "We could wear tbe same boots," he had remarked to Darrel. "Had I to do sucb penance I should be damned," the tinker had answered. "Look, boy, mine are the larger by far. There's a man coming to see me at the Christmas time, a man o' busy feet That pair in your hands I bought for him." "Day before yesterday," said Tunk that evening, "I was up in the sugar bush after a bit o' blckory, an' I see a man there, an' I didn't have no Idee who 'twas. He was tall and had white hair an' whiskers an' a short blue coat. When I first see him he was set- tin' on a log, but 'fore I come nigh he got up an' made off." Although meager, the description was sufficient. Trove had no longer any doubt of this—that the stranger he had seen at Darrel's bad been hiding ln the bush that day whose events were now so important. Whoever had brought the money, ho must have known much of the plans aud habits of tbe young man, and, tbe night before Trove's arrival at Robin's Inn, be came probably to the sugar woods, where be spent the next day ln hiding. Tbe young man was deeply troubled. Polly and her mother sat well into tbe nlgbt with blm, hearing the story of his life, which he told ln full, saving only the sin of his father. Of that be had neither the right not;, the heart to tell. "God only knows what is the next chapter," said he at last. "It may rob me of all that I love ln this world.'' "But not of me," said Polly, whispering in his ear. "I wish I were sure of that," he answered. • *•»••* Among those who got off the train at Hillsborough one day was a big, handsome youth of some twenty years. In all the crowd there were none had ever seen him before. Dressed ln the height of fashion, he was a figure so extraordinary that all eyes observed him as he made his way to the tavern. Trove and Polly and Mrs. Vaughn were ln that curious throng on the platform, where a depot was being built. "My! What a splendid looking fellow!" said Polly as the stranger passed. Trove had a swift pang of jealousy that moment. Turning, he saw Rlluy Brooke standing near them in a group of villagers. "I tell you, he's a' thief," the boy beard him saying, and the words seemed to blister as they fell, and ever after when he thought of them a great sternness lay like a shadow on his brow. "I must go," said be, calmly turning to Polly. "Let me help you into the wagon." Wben they were gone he -food a moment thinking. He felt as if he were friendless and alone. "You're a giant today," said a friend, passing him, but Trove made no answer. Roused incomprehensibly, his heavy muscles bad become tense, and be had an odd consciousness of their power. The people were scattering, and he walked slowly down the street. Tbe sun was low, but be thought not of home or wbere he should spend til night It was now the third day after bis arrest Since noon he had been looking for Darrel, but tbe tinker's door had been locked for daye, according to the carpenter who was at work below. For an hour Trove walked, passing up and down before that familiar stairway, In the hope of seeing bis friend. Daylight was dim when the tinker stopped by the stairs and began to feel for his key. The young man was quickly at the side of Darrel. "God be praised!" said the latter, "Here ls the old Dial an' the strong an' noble Trove. I heard o' thy trouble, boy, far off on the post road, an' I bave made baste to come to thee." CHAPTER XXTV. ROVE had been reciting the hie tory of his trouble and had finished with bitter words. ,'£ih.TX,A —C, tl>__ IMS—" 0-.1.1 T the tinker as Trove sat betuTe him wltb tears of anger In his eyes. "Watch yonder pendulum and say not a word until it has ticked forty times. For wbat are thy learning au' thy mighty thews If they do not bear thee up in time o' trouble? Now ts thy trial come before the Judge of all. Up wltb thy head, boy, an' be acquitted o' weakness au' fear an' evil passion." "We deserve better of blm," said Trove, speaking of Riley Brooke. When all others hated htm we were kind to the old sinner, and it has done him no good." "Ah, but has it done thee goodl There's the question," said Darrel, his hand upon the boy's arm. "I believe It has," said Trove, with a look of surprise. "It was thee I thought of, boy. I hud never much thought o' blm." That moment Trove saw farther Into the depth of Darrel's heart than ever before. It startled him. Surely hen was a man that passed all understanding. Darrel crossed to bis bench and began to wind the clocks. "Put away thy unhappfness," said he gently. "No harm shall come to thee. 'Tis only a passing cloud." "You're right, and I'm not going to be a fool," said Trove. "It has brought me one item of good fortune." "An' that is?" "I have discovered who ls my father." "An' know ye wbere he Is now?" tho tinker Inquired. "No; but I know lt Is he to whom you gave the boots at Christmas time." "Hush, boy," said Darrel In a whisper, his hand raised. He crossed to the bench, returning quickly and drawing his chair In front of the young man. "Once upon a time," he whispered, sitting down and touching the palm of bis opeu band witb the Index finger of the other, "a youth beld In bis hand a cup, rare an' costly, an' lt was full o' happiness, an' he was tempted to drink. 'Ho, there, me youth,' said oue wbo saw him, 'that is the happiness of another.' But he tasted the cup, an' It was bitter, an' he let It fall, an' the other lost his great possession. Now, that bitter taste was ever on the tongue o* the youth, so that his own cup had always the flavor o' woe." Tbe tinker paused a moment, looking sternly Into tbe face of the young man. "I adjure thee, boy, touch not the cup of another's happiness, or It may Imbitter tby tongue. But If thou be foolish an' take It up, mind ye do not drop lt." "I shali be careful—I shall neither taste nor drop lt," said Trove. "God bless thee, boy! Thou'rt come to a great law—who drains the cup of another's happiness shall flud It bitter, but who drains tbe cup of another's bitterness shall And lt sweet." A silence followed, In which Trove sat looking at tbe old man whose words were like those of a prophet. "I have no longer any right to seek my father," he thought. "And, though I meet him face to face, I must let blm go his way." Suddenly there came a rap at the door, and when Darrel opened It they saw only a letter hanging to the latch. It contained these words, but no signature: "There'll be a bonfire and some fun tonight at 12 ln tbe middle of Cook's field. Messrs. Trove and Darrel are invited." "Curious," said Darrel. "It has tbi look o' mischief." "Oh, It's only the boys and a bit of skylarking," said Trove. "Let's go and see what's up. It's near the time." Tbe streets were dark and silent as they left the shop. They went up a street beyond tbe village limits and looked off In Cook's field, but saw no "Down to your knees, man." light there. While they stood looking a flame rose and spread. Soon they could see figures ln the light and, climbing the fence, they hastened across an open pasture. Coming near, they saw a score of men with masks upon their faces. , "Give him the tar and feathers," said a strange voice. "Not if he will confess an* seek forgiveness," another answered. "Down to your knees, man, an' make no outcry, an' see you repeat the word.': careruiiy us l speas thefil or you' go borne ln tar and feathers." They could bear the sound of a scuffle and shortly tbe phrases of a prayer spoken by one voice and repeated by another. They were far back ln tbe gloom, but could bear each word of tbat which follows: "0 God, forgive me—I am a liar and a hypocrite—I bave the toagas of scandal and deceit—I have robbei tbe poor—I have defamed tbe good— and, Lord, I nm sick—with the rottenness of my own heart. And hereafter— I will cheat no more—and speak no evil of any one. Amen." < "Now go to your home, Riley Brooke," said the voice, "an' hereafter mind your tougue or you shall ride a rail In tar and feathers." They could see the crowd scatter, and some passed near them, running nway ln the darkness. 'Stoop there an' say not a word," the tinker whispered, crouching In the g'-ass. When all were out of hearing they started for the little shop. "Hereafter," said Darrel as they walked along, "God send he be more careful with the happiness of otlier men. I do assure thee, boy, it Is bitter, bitter, bitter!" (To Be Continued ) MOTHER'S DAY OFF. A Novel Plan That Worked Splendidly Try It. "I'd been married twelve years before it dawned on me tbat witb thu exception of my wife, every one in tbe bouse bod a day off ouce a week," said the man. "I suppose a woman does generally have rather a bad time of lt in that way," I remarked. "I always had Sundays," he continued, "the children bad Saturdays aud Sundays, too, and one of the maids had every Wednesday, while tbe other was free on Thursdays. But when I began to tblnk lt over it seemed to me tbat tbe wife never by any chance got a day entirely to herself." "What did you do?" "We talked It over together first, then the wife consulted the maids, and as soon as tbey grasped tbe idea tbey were as keen as mustard to do wbat tbey could to help. "Finally we decided that every Tuesday tbe servants, tbe children and I were to be left entirely to our own devices. Tbe wife might stay ln bed all day If sbe liked, go away, shop, visit, look ln at a picture gallery or, In fact, do anytblng tbat she liked. She was to have absolutely no responsibility for meals or anything on tbat one day every week." "And how does tbe thing work?" "Splendidly! Vie maids rise to _ie occasion, and w* vie with one another ln trying to keep everything running smoothly and are as pleased as possible when we can manage to speud less than we are allowed for the catering department and yet show good results." "And the wife?" "Isn't like the same woman. I tell her she seems to bave discovered the secret of perpetual youth, and sbe assures me that lf only every woman ln the world hnd a chance of trying tha same plan there would be more bapp; h— lies around. "After all, 1 don't see bow any ons can expect a woman to keep bright ond happy lf she never bas any regulur time to amuse herself, do you'i"' "I think you've probably hit on an idea tbat heaps of people would be only too glad to put Into practice If they ouly knew of it," I said. And so I pass lt on In case readers may be interested. . High Collars In Vogue. Wltb her usual perversity, Fashion bas decreed tbat collars Increase lu belgbt and ln comfort too, strange as that may seem. It is, however, easily explained. Since those llttle "val lelncs," or featberbones, tbat give the necessary support bave for some time reached fairly up to tbe ears, they could become no higher; but tbe change Is In tbe transparent covering which Is made of soft lace entirely or In combination with some filmy material.

TO VISIT KI1G EDWARD.^ Heiress to "Carman Sylva's" Thron* . One of His Cleverest Nieces. The Crown Princess Marie of Kou- mania and the Crown Prince are to be the guests of King Edward and Queen Alexandra during several weeks of the London season, and will be present with their Majesties at Ascot races. The princess is the eldest daughter of the late Duke of Coburg and of the Duchess Marie, and is one of the most gifted of King Edward's nieces. She was little more than a child when she was married to the heir of the Roumanian throne. Ignoring conventions, she is frequently to be seen walking in the streets in Bucharest, with one or more of her beautiful children, but otherwise unattended,' and while the exhibition was open there last summer visitors would meet. her roaming through the courts with her little girls like ordinary tourists.. The princess is greatly beloved in! her husband's country—indeed, her popularity is second only to that of her mother-in-law, Queen Carmen Sylva. 8he spends most of the summer at a charming countrv seat at Sinaia, on the borders of Roumania and Hungary, where King Charles and Queen Carmen Sylva have their summer palace.- Two years ar_o the princess visited England, and lived during a part of the summer, with her children, in a little villa at Cowes. Her beauty and her magnificent dresses and jewels made the princess a notable figure at King Edward's coronation feteB. She is very fond of outdoor sports, and her hobby is wood-carving. BOY BURGLAR'S OUTFIT. Arms and Make-Up of Leader of Juvenile Band. An amusing story of the exploits of Frank Taylor, the boy burglar of Robin Hood Lane 8tation, who was charged with shooting at Mr. Damon,, a solicitor, of Carshaltou, was told recently. Taylor was caught in Mr. Damon's house, and when his story of having entered it by mistake was not believed, he fired a shot at Mr. Damon from a revolver, and attempted to escape. j He was captured after a struggle, in which he bit Mr. Damon's hand severely. i Edwin John Barrett, 14 years old, 1 was also arrested as one of his accomplices, and he made a confession in which he declared that he had ac- I companied Taylor on ten expeditions, i the object of which was robbery. He j said that Taylor forced him to ac- i company him, and stand outside while Taylor entered the houses. The police stated that they found the following articles in his room: A pair of handcuffs. Black velvet coat, with ruffles and trimmed with lace at the cuffs. Pair of jack boots with spurs. Three sword bayonets. Three air guns. A broech-loadinir fowline piece. Several wicrs and moustaches. A theatrical make-up box. They also found a larpp quantity of sensational literature, nnd they learned that the boy had taken lessons in wrestling and in the use ol firearms. On the Scrap Heap. In an Irish court recently an old man was called into the witness box, and being infirm and just a little blind, he went too far in more than one sense. Instead of keeping up the stairs that led to the box, he mounted those that led to the bench. Said the judge, good hnmoredly: "Is it a judge yon want to be, my good man?'* "Ah, sure, your honor," was the reply. "I'm an ould man now, and mebbe it's all I'm fit lor." The judge had no rendv retort. ' How an Earl Won a Bride. The "ashes" were not the only trophy Lord Darnley brought back in triumph from Australia. He brought back a bride as well. At one of the cricket matches the tall young Englishman lost his handkerchief, and the day being extremely hot, enquire.! of his friends if any one of them had a spare handkerchief that he might loan. Immediately a very feminine 'kerchief, sweet scented and of delicate fabric, was handed to him from some invisible source. It was a most acceptable convenience that hot day. and after the match he expressed his desire to thank the kindly lady. An introduction to Miss Florence Murphy followed. She was the daughter of a Victoria magistrate and a member of Sir W. J. Clarke's household as governess to the younger children. The acquaintance so romantically commenced ripened nnder the kindly chaperonage of Lady Clarke, an engagement following which stood the test of a long absence in England after the cricketing tour. Then the faithful swain, wno is now a representative Irish peer, returned to Australia, claimed his bride, and bore her ofl in triumph.—Tit-Bita. Hides In a Chimney. An amusing story of a bookmaker's device to escape arrest was told at Liverpool, when John Cain, aged 28, was remanded, charged with keeping a betting house. Three detectives went to the place on Saturday, and found Cain standing at the back door taking bets from two young men. When he say the office—t lie ran in and fastened the door, having previously let a bullterrier loose in the yard.

PEEVISH AND CROSS. Peevish, cross babies are sick babies —the well baby ls always happy. Perhaps there may be nothing to Indicate just what Is the matter, but you may depend upon It there Is something troubling the little one or he would not tbe cross. A few doses of IJaby's Own Tablets will remove the cause and make baby happy. They are a certain cure for the minor Ills of babyhood. Thousands of mothers keep them continually ln the house to guard against the sudden Illness of baby. A Tablet now and again will keep the little one well. Mrs. James Jewers, Beaver Harbor, N.S., says: "I have given Baby's Own Tablets to my baby as occasion required since she was a day old. They have always helped her, and now at a year and a half old she ls a fine healthy child. The Tablets, I think, are Indls pensable to mothers of young children."

The third house, as the lobby Is sometimes called, ls tbe legislative annex of the special Interests. It ls the house of special representatives, and Its membership is a curious study ln the widely different Its meeting place Is the lobby and committee rooms of the nation's capital, the hotel rotunda, the lawyer's offlce, the street, the banquet room, the little back room, the bar, the road house, the home, the brothel—anywhere the legislator may be found and personally approached. That is the object of a lobby—personal contact with the people's representatives and the Influence upon legislation worked thereby. If legislators were perfect, there would be no lobby. If they were perfectly wise, there would be no occasion for the lobbyist who desires "to inform" them; lf perfectly honest, there would be no occasion for tbe lobbyist who desires to "make it worth while;" lf perfectly patriotic, there wonld be no occasion for the lobbyist wbo desires for himself "a little personal favor"—at the people's expense. I The existence of a lobby Is premised on human frailty.

ECZEMA AGAIN OVERCOME ZAM-BUK CURES A CASE WHICH FOR TWO YEARS HAD DEFIED EVERY REMEDY TRIED A Farmer's Grateful Testimony No case of eczema, skin disease, or ulceration, should be despaired of until Zam-I.uk has been applied. The case of Mr, Francis Penott, of St. Anne's (Man.), i.s a powerful illustration of *—im-Buk's eflicacy. He says: "I suffered from eczema for two years, and tried a great number of remedies. None of them, however, seemed to do ine any good. The ailment wus mostly In my legs, and both these were actually raw from the knees down. A small sample box of Zam-Buk was given to me, and even so small a uuantlty as that did me a llttle good. I then obtained a proper supply, and liy the time I had used a few boxes I was completely cured." Zam-Buk differs from ordinary salves and embrocations In containing na animal oil or fat. It is compounded from rich, healing, herbal essences, and Is an Ideal natural combination of power and purltT'. It Is highly antiseptic, and instantly kills bacilli and disease germs, which settling on to wounds and skin diseases set up festering, blood poison, etc. For cuts, burns, bruises, ulcers, abscesses, pimples, boils, skin eruptions, scalp sores, spreading sores, children's skin troubles, chailng sores, etc., Zam-Buk Is unequalled.

A Story ef a Perelan Monarch That Points a Moral. Once upon a time a certain king of Persia went out bunting with all his court The chase that day happened to be long, and tbe king became very thirsty. But no fountain or river could be found near tbe spot on the plain where they rested for a short Interval. At last one of the courtiers spied a large garden not far off. It was filled with trees bearing lemons, oranges and grapes. His followers begged the monarch to partake of the good things In the garden. "Heaven forbid that I should eat anything thereof," said the king, "for lf I permitted myself to gather but an orange from It my officers and courtiers would not leave a single fruit In the entire garden.** The higher ln life a person is the more careful he should be, for all his faults are copied by those beneath him.—Chatterbox.

Prof. Adams', of McGill, Optimistic Address to Empire Club. Prof. Frank D. Adams ol McGill University, Montreal, iii a recent address to tlie Empire Club, Toronto, on "llie Undeveloped Resources oi tlio Dominion" said that it was somewhat like carrying coals to Newcastle tor anyone from a distance to speak upon the mineral resources of the Dominion when Toronto is in itself such uu important mining centre. The speaker went on to show bow the mineral output of the Dominion compared witli that of twenty years ago. In 1880 the total mineral exports only amounted to $22,221,000. In 1-11)0, which is tlio last year for which official reports havo been made out, the amount was $68,574,000, while for 1906 it may be safely estimated as exceeding the seventy million mark. The country was generally regarded' as an agricultural one, our mineral resources having less attention given to them than they deserved. The speaker pointed out that this view was to a great extent erroneous, as the mineral output of the Dominion had now reached two-thirds of the amount of the agricultural exports' of Canada. j Prof. Adams then asked this question, "Will this increase continue, or: will it decrease?" In answering his own question the professor argued from geological data that the growth not only would in all human prob-, ability increase, but it was quite) within the bounds of possibility that, still greater riches might be discov-' ered, the existence of which we are at present ignorant of. The remainder of the address consisted of a' careful analysis of the products fromi their various districts of the coal,' gold, nickel and copper, iron and sil-; ver in the Dominion, and pointed out! that so far as one could judge byi peology these products were not likely' to (liininish. . Mysteries of Planting. Tbe devices adopted by nature for securing the planting and distribution of seeds are very interesting. Some seeds have wings, so that they may be carried away as far aa possible In falling from the parent plant Others, like those of the milkweed and dandelion, may be said to be provided with balloons, Inasmuch as they are made so light by feathery appendages that they are readily drawn up to great heights by warm currents of air. Astronomers used to mistake tbe floating seeds of tbe milkweed for meteors until a noted star gazer set his telescope at a near focus and wns thus enabled to examine the floating vegetable germs that passed across tho field of view. Certain burs are seed vessels that are provided with tiny hooks in order that tbey may catch in the fur of animals and be carried afar.

WILL KISSING BE PROHIBITED The Osculatory Process Denounced by Scientists as Extremely Dangerous—How the Danger Can be Removed. A keen discussion is being carried on by some of the host scientists as to the clanger and "crime" of kissing, led by Dr. Somers, Health Officer of Atlantic City, and Dr. Nalpasse, of the Medical Faculty of Paris '.rh_:>j A*rge the kiss with spreading grippe, scarlet fever, measles, mumps, whooping cough, typhoid fever, diphtheria, erysipelas, meningitis, tuberculosis, and many infectious skin diseases. They suggest legislation on the subject, and the posting of notices in railway stations, street cars and other publio places, but they say it would be useless to post them on verandahs, in cosy corners, porches, shady nooks, or moonlit lawns. They also propose compulsory legislation for methods of disinfection of the mouth and purify- ' ing the breath, especially with a view j to the protection of the innocent babies i who are particularly subject to infection. The greatest and most effective purifier and germ destroyer known to medical science for the mouth, throat and breath, as well as for the blood, stomach and lungs, is Psychine, that triumph of the medical world that is attracting almost universal attention beoause of the wouderful results attending its use.

It Was prescribed by one of the the disease worse—increases the tor- best physicians ln the country for years ture. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have cured thousands. They cured Mr. Horace Plante, o£ Sorel, Que., of a most aggravated case of rheumatism. I walked as if my boots were filled with pebbles. The pains, starting in my feet, spread to all parts of the body; my back and joints became affected. For upwards of five years I suffered .the greatest agony. Often I was confined to bed, hardly able io move. Nothing seemed to help me. I despaired of ever being well again. By good chance Dr. Williams' Pink Pills were brought to my attention and I decided to try them. I got six boxes—before they were gone I felt a great improvement. I contlinued the treatment and my health gradually, came back till now I do not feel the least pain—I am totally cured. It Was a surprise to my friends to see me on the street again well and strong after five years of torture. They wanted to know what brought about the change. I told them Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, for I took no other medicline once I began their use. Rheumatic sufferers give Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a fair trial; they will surely do for you what they did for me" It is in the blood — poor blood — that such troubles as rheumatism, Indigestion, dizziness, heart palpitation, anaemia, weakness and a host of other diseases find their root.

DODD'S',' KIDNEY i PILLS : HARDY FERNS. About Forty Speoiss Are Suited to Outdoor Culture. Among the hardy ferns are varieties greatly differing in size and form, from a hairlike creeping stem bearing a few simple mosslike leaves to the vigorous growing plants with large leaves, attaining a height of two or three feet. Kerns are interesting and extremely beautiful, especially when grown ns specimen plants or in combination with other plcnts. The varying conditions ln which the different species succeed are remarkable. Many of them require a warm temperature, while others do well In cool and shady places. Of the 4,000 or more species of ferns not more than about forty species are suited to outdoor culture in ordinary soils and situations. These species can be planted In beds, borders or rockeries or in the foreground of shrubbery. is most of them require a somewhat shady place, they are especially useful for filling In places where grass and other light loving plants cannot grow. Perfect drainage ls required. The soil should have leaf mold in It, or decayed peat or well decayed sod will answer. Hardy ferns are best planted In the spring, but they cau be planted in the summer If the fronds or leaves are cur back, making lt easier for the plants te establish themselves before the wlntei sets In. From his florist the amateu- gardener can obtain cuttings of vnrie ties most suitable for the soil and ell mate tn his vicinity. In the winter tlr ferns should be given protection, wit' a covering of leaves, hay or straw. EXCITED NERVES, TWITCHING MUSCLE!

Telepathy, ghosts, and other oceuK phenomena were explained ou a natural basis by Dr. Bernard Hollander at the London Lyeeum Club recently. It is by brain energy, whether electrical or not we do not know, said the lecturer, that men acquire influence over others. That such energy exists has been proved by experiment-! on hypnotized persons, who in a per- feertly darkened room can see a glow at the finger-points of the hypnotizer; and metallic objects nibbed by the latter acquire a luminosity strong enough to make their surroundings visible. Supposing a person to be the victim of foul play, his mind-energy will be exerted to the utmost, and is projected with such a force that it will cling to the room or plafee In which he lost hia life. If, then, some person oi a sensitive nature, and not pro-occupied, pass through that room, his brain may receive such a stimulus as to produce some more or less defined image, wliich will appear real to him, and the vision of a "ghost" will be the result. The same theory, said Dr. Hollander, makes it possible that sensitive subjects when in the hypnotic state, and holding an object belonging to the dead or tlie living, or being in a room once inhabited by them, may have visions of and be able to describe them.

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA. ______ © c&re/t// to ste/tct we// •HILE housework, even to Its occasional devotee, suffers ln comparison with outdoor sports, still, certain of its fea- Ves may be made to serve the same lrpo.se in developing certain muscles I do those very Bports she craves to Bow. _. fake paddling, for instance. The Kvements may be almost exactly du- Icated with a broom, turning sweep- } Into a form of exercise which has [results In an added poise of the body a In a marked development of grace. ht, of course, lf she sweeps ln an un- Unly fashion. There are women to this lr who persist In sweeping toward Im, with the result that they become tied early and stand awkwardly, [ich ls absolutely unnecessary. Bold your broom lightly and easily, Af /tVfe pi/// but firmly, and sweep away from you, taking as much Interest In the way you handle it as In the fact that the room Is gradually getting clean. Stand with your shoulders well back, bending from the hips, lf you find lt necessary to lean forward, Instead of stooping forward as though from the shoulders. Train yourself to sweep with the broom at the left side as well as at the right, developing the sides evenly. As to rowing, plain, humdrum washing may be made to yield some of the same benefits if you make a point of rubbing hard up, as well as. or. Instead of, down the board. There is not the pull upon the upper arm muscles thai rowing gives unless you do this, and the harder you pull against tbe board the more nearly you come to the movement and the benefit of rowing. Even the washing of the llttle pieces —the embroidered table linen, which so many women prefer to do up themselves, rather than trust to tho tender mercies of a washer woman- may be looked to as exercise producers. Of course, there Is no discounting the value which the keen zeBt of a game or of athletics adds to the actual physical development. And the clean, pure air In which rowing and paddling arc usually taken Is another great factor which Is often lacking In doing housework. But almost every sport has its parallel in actual tasks, which, if they must be done, may as well be done with an eye toward the good in the way of health nnd beauty to be got out of thc_ Mathematics and the Dressmaker ' 0NSEN8E," says some one; "what can mathematics have to do with dressmaking! bsmakers do not use arithmetic In king clothes." Well, really, that may |rue, for a good many gowns look way and would have been much br for a few moments expended ln illation. the flrst place, everything mUst be lei-lied by rules, and it ls far better pompare the waist you are making aneans of a measuring tape than by fins of two pieces of the garment. For lance, suppose the hookB which sup- ; your skirt In the back are always and one-fourth Inches apart, and I eyes on your skirts are always the se, any skirt can fit any waist, and ^need never have either one to meas- . the other by. One and one-fourth pes, by the way, Is the regular rsmnker's measurement for the hooks and eyes which hold skirt and waist together. How much easier, too, when making buttonholes and putting on buttons to decide just what distance apart you will have them ln Inches, and then work lt by means of a measure! The size of the waistband, also, should be in Inches, wuh so much allowed for turning in and so much for lap under.etc. If the home- sewer will keep a memorandum of all measurements as to size of neck, waist, wristband and other equally important items which she is liable to need frequently, lt will save her much jumping up and, also, the trouble of making comparisons between things made and those in process. She may even be able to cut without a pattern a fairly accurate skirt, one that will do for common wear, If she has the bottom and top measurements of the widths, with the length of each. Loose Braids WHEN braids begin to loosen there is pretty sure to be trouble ahead, The flrst fow broken stitches should, of course, be repaired at once, and the braid made secure or the heel may catch and a leg be broken by a fall But If a few days after the flrst repair has been made another place breaks out, there ls but one thing to be done, which is to rip the entire braid off and put lt on afresh or replace lt entirely, beenuso the second breaking away shows clearly that the thread with which the braid has been sewed on has grown rotten and cannot be depended upon. The braid should be taken off, all the threads should be picked out and , the bottom of the skirt should be well damncned and pressed. CLOCKS AND THEIR STRIKING THE clock of our grandfather's time came from England, and struck every quarter of an hour. Another ancient one plays old songs and hymns instead of striking. Still another contains not only a cuckoo, but also a mocking bird, which alternate in their cries. A clock that was once very common portrays stars, moon and sun, moving slowly overhead as the clock strikes. A heavy striking clock Is made for a library, not for a bedroom. Fit the clocks to the general appearance of the room. Often they are the only misfit things in lt. Those little gilt clocks, with the intermittent alarm, which rings at Intervals of a half-minute each for twenty minutes, are just the thing for Miss Lie-a-bed. In France some of the new clocks strike up to twenty-four, lnstead^if twice twelve—a very sensible Plan. *0 ; BABY'S SIXTH ] / MONTH ihe Food Should Have the Most Careful Attention By Dr. Emelyn L. Coolidge Copyright, 1905, by A. S. Barnes & Co. THE nightdress should now be ot cotton and the skirt left off ai night, lf it hus not already been discarded, but the band and ex thin shirt should be worn. Long white cotton stockings, which may be pinned to the napkin, Bhould be worn all sum- mer, and not short socks. In summer lt ls Important to keep the baby's head as cool as possible; therefore, do not use a hot sunbonnet, which shuts off all the air; muslin caps or light pique hats afford enough simile. LC. the baby has a carriage parasol. lf one expects to take a long sea voyage or travel a long time on tbe cars where fresh milk cannot be obtained, lt will be well to accustom the child to taking either condensed milk or one of the best prepared foods which can ba made with water before starting on thtt- journey. Begin to do this two or three, weeks before leaving home, and give the baby one or two meals each day of. this food. This Is a good plan to follow sven If the baby Is nursed by his mother, for she may be ill or unable te>. nurse her Infant for some reason, and it Is best to be prepared for such an emergency. Milk that has been rapidly cooled and placed in sealed and sterilized glass jars, will keep from four to six days, if kept well packed ln Ice. Enough food for twenty-four or even forty-eight hours may be prepared at home, if lt ls sterilized and packed in a little traveling; basket which contains a small compartment ln which to keep ice. The formula sometimes used for tlie slxth month is; Six ounces of top milk: skimmed from the top of a quart bottle of milk, ten ounces of milk poured off, twenty-four ounces of barley or oatmeal gruel, four teaBpoonfuli. of granulated or seven of milk sugar, a pinch of bicarbonate of soda and a pinch or salt. This should be pasteurized, cooled ln. the usual manner, and given to tbe baby every three hours up to 9 or 10 P. M. From four to six ounces may be taken, at each meal. When an exceedingly hot day comes, It is always wise to pour out one or even two ounces from each bottle of the regular mixture and substitute boiled water in its place. If the baby is _.t all apt to vomit, It will be best during the hot weather to, use only four or five ounces of the top milk Instead of six, and to make up tha quantity with the gruel. Unless the baby ls inclined to be constipated, barley gruel is better to use in summer- than oatmeal, for it ls less heating. Another good plan, when the baby has* delicate digestive organs, is to make one meal a day, all through the very- hot weather, of mutton broth, made in the following manner: One pound of the neck of mutton cut up, one pint of coldt water and a pinch of salt, Cook very slowly for three or four hours until you have half a. pint, adding a little water,, lf necessary, from time to time, as It boils away; then strain through muslin, and. when ccld, remove every particle of fat. This broth may be added to an, equal quantity of barley water and fed to the baby lukewarm through a nursing bottle. •lII these simple measures help to ward u_f the dreaded "summer complaint," and give the digestive organs less work to do during hot weather and while the teeth are being cut. Public Manicuring HE was a good-looking man, well- dressed, and quiet in his appearance. He even rose to give an elderly woman his seat, ut which unusual exhibition of politeness the girl ipposite looked admiringly at him. He. JId not whistle, he did not smoko, although it was a seat whero smoking was . allowed, and there was not a sign of a toothpick about him. And then—he drew forth a pearl-handled penknife, and began to manicure • his nails! More and mere absorbed ha- grew, quite oblivious of the interest of the girl opposite. And as he diligently pared and scraped, his lips formed in a pucker, and ho began to whistle. Little by little the marks of the gentleman disappeared, and those of the boor Increased. A sudden motion tipped hia hat back on his forehead, and as ha drew out his handkerchief to polish the- newly manicured nails the foreordained toothpick came out with it, ond waa. promptly inserted In his mouth. The girl opposite, who was an ardent type-hunter, took ont the little notebook she always carried, and wrote therein: "Dr. Jeykll becomes Mr. Hyde through the agency ot a nall-flle!" Terrifying Wallpaper JUST as the guests were sitting down to dinner a child's scream pierced tho air. The hostess hastily excused herself and left the room. A few moments later sho returned. "1 can't think what is the matter with Bobbie," she said, aa she reseated herself. "Ever since he has had his bedroom repapered he wakes up about this time ln a dreadful fright and screams until I come. Then he tells me that he sees things coming out of the walls- - tonight It was monkeys, last night it was spiders." "Do you leave a light In his room?" asked the doctor. "Oh! yes, Indeed; he couldn't sleep, without lt." "Then I think I know what alls hlnn. What sort Is this new wallpaperT" "It's a fancy flower design in red and whjte—very pretty, Fred and I thought." "Doubtless It was very pretty to you,, but to an imaginative child lying there ln the dusk those figured wallpapers are perfect torture. I should advise you to repaper the room in jome plain op striped paper.'' "It Isn't only children that art cop. tured by such wall papers, either," remarked the young girl next to the doctor. "When my aunt was sick she said the wallpaper drovo her nearly crazv. She would try to make faces out ot it. and then they would come of their own accord, until- n|j the walls were full of them." "Well, all this Is news to me," said Bobble's mother, "and Bobble's wallpaper will certainly be changed - THE ADVOCATE, VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA. ■ —Juue 89, 19*7— LOTS! 8o=ft.

Perhaps the greatest test of moral heroism is championing an unpopular cause or person when either Is unjustly treated.
