It was confidently believed the meeting held on the 13th between the city council, citizens and the Ontario- Slocan Lumber Co., would have been productive of lasting good feeling and confidence. Such, however, has not eventuated, but rather has there been engendered since the nieeting a spirit of unanimous and determined opposition to the mill people. It was incited by the action of the company in attempting to import a couple of Chinese shingle packers on Friday morning. Thursday evening word iris brought down from Rosebery that au effort would be made to bring Chinese in, and sure enough they arrived on the company tug a little after 11 o'clock next morning. It did not take long On Tuesday evening the local Liberal Association held its annual meeting in the Kilo block, there beiug a fair attendance of the faithful.

O, we may go up by the mountains of doubt That are drear to the iuward ken, Where the chidings of solf but find us out And harry our souls again. And Life without Love is a round of care. And Love without Hope is a mockery bare; But Hope, little angel, comes light as the air, With its God-givsn mss'*agi* to men. Despondency comes with forebodings dread And tilling our hearts with gloom, Till the best of life impulse is stagnant and dead And our lives have lost all of their bloom. O, man without Hope is a leaf on the blast, Or a chip in the stream of Eternity cast; A moment to linger, then swiftly borne past, And hiistcned along to his doom. Yet, let us have faith in the years to be, And journey toward the dawn. And the true Socialistical end we shall see Of the plan that God's morcy has drawn.

A great deal of ground sluicing has lieen done this season on the Rose group, on the first north fork Lemon. The force on the Enterprise has lieen increased. Five meu came up from Nolson Saturday to work at the miue. A tremendously rich strike of gold ore is reported from Poplar creek, -a tributary of tho Lardo river. A rush of prospectors has set in for the scene j of the discovery. J. D. Anderson, of Trail,is applying for crown grants on the Tamarack group, on Bpringer crook. Mr. Anderson has made a large niimlier of surveys in this district, during the past seven years. Some very nice ore is being taken from the Twin Sisters group, on tho first north fork of Lemon.

"Vou can't mean it" he said, and his race was bluish gray as be thought of the ccrtaiu Inference that Elmeudorf would draw from Brenda's departure at this time.

Finally the gentleman announced that a marriage under the laws of the state of Pennsylvania would meet the requirements of the situation. I was a good deal startled by tbls definite suggestion, and I wrote to my mother on tbe subject for tbe first time.

How opportune! Well, Brenda, I packed a little hand bag nnd went Wbat must you tblnk of me?" Brenda bent down gently and kissed Elsie's band and held it against her face. "I don't know the story yet," she said, "but you havo portrayed a thorough scoundrel. And you have also shown me a trusting and true hearted girl wbo went to be married wltb an Innocent heart.

"I can't be sure of what you mean," she answered, smiling, "but whatever It Is you have It!" Tbey looked straight Into each other's eyes for a moment Then they laughed together like happy children. Kendall's bands closed mora tightly upon hers. He released tbem gently and Inclined his head as be turueil and left the room. "Well, considering tbat thnt was only a little Joke," said Elsie, "I don't think 1 ever saw so much for the money." "Whnt could the man have meant?" exclaimed Brenda. "lie probably meant," said Elsie, "that you were notblng more to blm a hansom afterward at 2 o'clock ln the morning, and the chaperon of our supper party rode In another direction In another hansom with another man. My e.srort talked about the •Kubalynt' of Omar Khayyam, and I then first appreciated the beauties of thnt sublime composition. Afterwurd be spoke of my work In n very earnest and encouraging way.

Finally he bade me good night ou the doorsteps, with a gentle sadness In his manner wblcb let me kuow that there was a romance lu bis life. Tbat made mc feel safe, for at thnt time I surely did not want him to fnll ln love with me, und I still retained tbe delusion of my earlier years tbat romances lu a person's life acted like vaccination. "Tbe gentleman called upon me tbe next afternoon, and he was very entertaining as well as Instructive. He brought me a large book. I forget what It was about. The next day be took mc out to dinner, aud I remember tbnt he gave me some very shrewd and helpful criticism about my work. Then I didu't see blm for two whole days, aud I began to miss him very much. At that time I was lonely. My girl friends In tbe profession were all out of town, and some of tbe men lu tbe compuny who wished to be klud to me were rough In tbelr ways—not at all like tbe cultured gentleman whose acquaintance I had been so fortunate as to make." "But didn't you ask about blm?" said Brenda. "Didn't you find out how he stood socially?" Elsie laughed. "How was I to find out any of those things?" sbe said. "The world Is a big place, ln tbe midst of which ts society as you know It, n little mutual Insurance company for the purpose of protecting Its members, especially the younger ones, against accidents. I only knew tbat I liked this man and that he seemed to be a true friend to me. What other guide was I to hare eicept my own beautiful Ignorance?" "I don't know," said Brenda aloud, but to herself she was saying: "Tbe more wrong sbe has suffered tbe more 1 want to help her. 1 won't let anything take ber away from me."

However, we lunched tbere quite hastily, for I had no appetite. Tben we re-entered the hansom and went to look for a minister. We had remarkable difficulty in finding one, considering that Philadelphia ls a large city full of churches, but we finally succeeded. Then It appeared that we had neglected to comply wltb certain formalities, but the clergyman was able to rectify thc matter, and so we were married pitifully, as I see It ■ow, witb stupid old servants and a chancu laborer wbo happened to be st work ln tbe houso as our witnesses.

We hurried right Into the dining room, and my husband ordered a great spread, wltb champagne, for uur miserable celebration, and uow I will tell you the unromautlc part. In the midst of that dinner, and while I fancied tbat I was eating with a splendid appetite, I was suddenly seized with the most awful pain that ever devastated my poor little stomach.

I talked Insanely and saw things that weren't there. Tbe next thing I knew we were riding up In an elevator, and It seemed to go up for a week.

Die l'reaent 1'oaltlssss of Hrllleh l.llera- isss'sai sisisl Literary Moss. Sir Donuld Wallace, who passed through Canada lust yeur wilh tho Koyal party, gave a dinner party at tho Hotel Cecil tn London recent I.v which curiously and strikingly lllu-fr irntes tha present position ol lltera- ture and literary men. lt. was n nouiblo event. Statesmen and actors, journalists and clergymen, col- logo professors nnd military nun, naval officers anil men of science, nil hat cheek by jowl. They were the contributors to tlio ninth edition of the Kncyclopaedia Britannica. The speex-hes dealt wilh literature, politics, bookmaking, the rewards of authors, tho secrets of the literary craft. So celebration could hnvo more perfectly revealed the present conditions under which thsi education that comes from printed matter is carried on. To somo extent tho •.oil sif mystery that surrounds tho literary profession was lifted. The Area ut Kssuw l«a.lge. Mr. Balfour, thu Primu Minister, in iiis speech referred to thc amount of knowledge u man hus to acquiiv. "1 think you must sometimes envy," he said, "the lot ol those happy lieoplo who lived at a time whsm il was within the capacity of any single individual lo master without undue effort ths- whole compnas ssf human learning and human knowl- edge. 1 am almost glad 1 shall not livo to see the iluy when the »|si'ciul- ist will have au enormous and almost unutterable contempt for tho gonaralizor, and whsm tho generaliz- er will feel himself lost in tho mass of knowledge, the mass of detail which will meet the student in every branch of knowledge wbo really intends to master its ss.*crots." Posterity must look out for itself, and meantime an encyclopaedia givs-s the ordinary man a view of things, and a view which is easily got, so that even the ignoramus may appear learned. Making au l-iscyelupss-dia.. Notwithstanding the alphabetical arrangement of articles in the modern encyclopaedia, it has been found necessary to prepare an elaborate index to the Britannica, an undertaking so vast lhat it has not brought a fortune to its publishers, who have really been as much educationists as m**n in charge of a commercial venture. Sir Donald Wallace, who gave the dinner, was not only editor of the lust edition of tho Britannica, but also director of thc fors'ign ds_- partment of The London Times, llis co-editors were Mr. Hugh Chisholm nnd Dr, Medley, of Yale, and they siimnis.n.d to their aid all the noted men in scia-nn-, literature, art. and politics that were necessary to mako the work authoritative. It is curious to note among the guests »hoso regular professions leave tbem iiin.- to do a little sir a great deal a>I literary labor "on the Bide," as it were, sueh m n as Lord 1'hiiii s Bcreaford, Sir John Clorat, M. I'.. Mr. Premier Rssovta, Sir Squire Bancroft, General Ardagh, Sir Eve* lyn Wood, Aslmiral Hamilton, Mr. Justin Darling, und Lord Brassey. It shows how men of all sorts love io writs* about their own Special sub- ji»cts, oven when nol literary men by profession. \\ istera Hflill Their Wis*/*.. The early editions saf tho Britannica hud for contributors such distinguished persons as Sir Waller Scott, j_ord -Jeffrey, Sir James Mackintosh, Sir David Bl'OWSter, llazlitt, Matthews, [Heardo, Robert Stephenson, Huxley, Lawrence Oli- phant, and many other worthies. Scott at lirst declined to accepl any remuneration for his articles. When ho found, however, tlmt tli.- mono} would come out of ihe pocket, nol of a liti-rary brother, bul ill l Ill- publisher, be accepted £iuu with llu. remark that lie hud "trees to plain, and no conscience with regard to tin- purse of his iut friend, Mr. Constable." Miicuulay, in his day, refused to taks* pay, and ther.' are said to have beon contributors piv- sent at the dinner who likewise Set at defiance Dr. Johnson's dictum. that a man was a fool who wrota- for anything else than money. One of tho old contributors disl nil hi. Writing in a debtors' prison, and wrote chiefly on religion and ('1,1 is- tian education. Sir Donald Wallace declared that encyclopaedias In days of yore ware not like Saturn, tho heathen deity, who kill.il anil ate Iiis own chilslren, but ihey had tha; converse liul.it, equally reprehensible, of killing their parents. ilie VatlsBe Of Ss'l(SBS-e. Lord Avebury (Sir .John Lubbock) spoke on BClonco. He. too, i.s a curious example of the attractiveness of literature for persons of other pursuits, because he i.s a banker, a politician, und an Investigator of nature. Ho thought lhe 20th century would be us much distinguished for remarkablo scientific dl3Coverios as tbe l.lth. There are thr CO reasons for this: students were more numerous; appliances had lieen vusl- ly improved, the practical valuo sif research would Stimulate activity, lie said, What a blessing it would bo if universities devoted to ining science some of the timo spent on tho dead languages, and if the nations of Europe would drop thoir in- tcrnational jealousies ond divert some of the millions now squandered on preparations for war and di - ni ruction, and devote them to obsel. ration and research, "to Increasing our appreciation and knowledge ol the wonderful ninl beautiful lini- vorso in which wo live, Imt of \vlii.-|| as yet, alas! we know so littlo."

Tlso Time When C.reCounta Moat-Dwliisl- llasej and Starvation. There is no timo during the entire year that we cun do moro to in- ereaso the value of tho apiary than tn the early spring, about Hi.- months of April and May. goosl colonies muy bo saved right by timely attention, force of worker bees will be double when the honey season opens if proper nttontion is given at this time. There uro more losses of bees dur- j ing t lis* month of April perhaps than any other month in the whole yeur, : nmi ws- might be safe in suying ull the other eleven- months' csiuiliinetl. This is due to two causes—spring dwindling and starvation. The last ! cause is the more disastrous ami more easily remedied. Spring dwinsi- ling is ths!* result of bud wintering, j fsir"which thero is but littlo remedy. But i here is no bxcuse for uny one ; to let his bees starve to sleuth ; ihrough sheer negligence when per- haps they were robbed tlio fall pre- j vious und made to give up not only | their surplus, but tjit-lr winter's food besides.

"It developed into sciatica, which located in my Bide, so that I could not walk without a cane. I had to use. hypodermic injections of morphine to ease the pain. "I tried different medical men and niedlelnes with no good results till 1 was persuaded lo try Dodd's Kidney Tills.

'a He Obtained and Bow It Can He Preserved, The health of the whole bosly depends upon the blood and nerves. Tbe blood must be rich and pure, and tbe nerves vigorous and strong. Therefore a medicine that makes new blood and strengthens the nerves reaches the root of many serious diseases. Dr. William's Pink Pills will do this, and this is the secret of their wonderful power to conquer disease. Thousands of eases—many of them In your own neighborhood—have proved that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills will cure rheumatism, sciatica, partial paralysis, St. Vitus' dance, nervous and bilious headache, heart trouble, indigestion, neuralgia and the ailments that render the lives of so many women a source of misery. Mr. Jas. Adames, Brandon, Man., says : "Uefore I began the use it Dr Williams' Pink Pills my health \pas much shattered with rhuemattsm, nervous depression and sleeplessness. For fully a year I rarely got a good night's sleep. I gave the pills a thorough trial and can now truthfully nay I could not wish for better health." What Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have done for other? they will surely do for you, hut you should be careful to get the genuine with the full name.

Thc oriental idea of tlie freedom which American women enjoy does not accord with that of Anicrleuhs, Ono Hindoo lady expressed hsivelf us i*i'Pilt- ly shocked that American men should COlIipel their women to ne, about in public unprotected, their faces exposed to the gaze of strangers, and a Hindoo gentleman with whom wc talked thus pxpressiHl himself on lhe subject of oriental treatment of women: "Vou say tbnt we do not honor our women. Wby, let me tell you that all Hindoo boys, till tbey arc ready to learn the ways of men, are taught by their mothers. We nre subject to our mothers, and we know what ynu occidentals do not yet seem to realize—that to bave good men and good citizens wc must bave good mothers. You will hardly find a Hindoo man, whatever bis caste, daring to go against the counsel of his mother. Can yiai suy as much for American men?" Could as much, do our renders think, be said for American man's. There are no asylums for helpless fathers and mothers In the orient.

The average baby la a good baby- cheerful, smiling and bright When he ls cross and fretful It la because he Is unwell and he Is taking the only means he has to let everybody know he does not reel right When baby ls cross, restless and sleepless don't dose him with "soothing" stuffs which alwaya contain poisons. Baby's Own Tablets are what is needed to put the little one right. Give a cross baby an occasional Tablet and see how quickly he will be transformed Into a blight, smiling, cooing, happy child. He will sleep at night, and the mother will get her rest too. You have a guarantee that Baby's Own Tablets contain not one particle of opiate or harmful drug. In all the minor ailments from birth up to ten or twelve years there ls nothing to equal the Tablets. Mrs. W. B. Anderson, Qoulals Blver, Ont. says : "My little boy was very cross and fretful and we got no rest with hlm until we began using Baby's Own Tablets. Since then baby rests well and he ls now a fat, healthy boy."

FRIDAY, JUNE 2t'th,1903. v KsUtTOIUAI. CKUl'I'INUS. In R. A. Bradshaw the Liberals of the Slocan riding have a strong candidate and one who will -poll their full rote. It behoov-is the Conservatives to see that every man Jack of their following gets on the voter's list. Get your name iu early and thea rustle for some •other fellow's. Grit assertions of Tory discord in Victoria were prove** decidedly false by the big organization meeting held there last week, when* vote of confidence ii the government and endorsa- tion of the party platform was unanimously adopted. Can the Grits say us much of their family atthe capital? United as they are, the Tories in Victoria have an easy win. S. S. Taylor, lawyer, has been selected as the Liberal candidate in Nelson, two other stronger men having declined nomination, knowing the strength of the man who would make the fight against them. John Houston will undoubtedly be the Conservative nominee, and he will wiu out against any combination put iu tho field to oppose him. He has done it before and he will do it again, aud there is a heap of money available in Nelson to say so, too. The desperate straits to which the Liberals have been reduced in order to make some kind of a show at the elections may be seeb by the overtures made by them to the Trades & Labor Council in Vancouver,to form a Labor Liberal Alliance, and to nominate candidates in accordance. Remembering the opposition successfully waged against them by the Liberals in the Dominion bye-election held in Burrard •some months ago,the Labor men have •emphatically dsiiclined such an alliance. And rightly, too. The Liberals bave ever been notorious for their coquetry with the Labor vote, but this time the sscheme is a little too rough. The Grits are up against it. It required a public and practical demonstration to convince the Ontario- Slocan Lumber Co. thnt the people of this section are unwilling to tolerate the presence of Chinamen, though repeatedly informed of the fact. Years ago the question was fought out in the Slocan, and the district has remained singularly free from the blight of the yellow curse, aud it means to remain so. In this there is an iib-solute unanimity. The ratepayers of thc city have had to pay a pretty stiff price to get the compauy here, much more so, indeed, than was originally intended, but they do not kick at tluit provided the industry will prove the lieiicht to the place promised. Oue hundred men steadily employed woultl materially promote the progress of the city, but the citizens have a right to expect that they shall be white men. It was for such the ratepayers saddled them 'selves with a grievous financial burden and they want naught else. Thore 'has been no occasion for the estrangement between company and citizens. The company should have satisfied themselves at the outset of existing conditions iu the country and been prepared to meet them. When men refuse to work with Chinese and when their action is endorsed by the people, it presents a problem that can only be 'solved in one way, that is to leave the Chinese alone. Mills in otber parts of the interior of the province get ■-.long without Chinese help aud there is no reason why the local institution could not. It is simply a question of i wnge. In British Columbia Chinese' are lookt-d upon as n curse. It is sin-1 ccrely to be hoped the situation may j so eventuate as to permit of the local DRILL POINTS.

For fears the "-Slater Shoe" has been advertised as the shoe of twmfort—of foot ease. Thousands of pairs of "Slater Shoes'' have been bought because of this claim. Nov imagine a man or woman buying a second pair of "'Slater Shoes" after a course in foot agony in a pair of .ill-fitting "Slaters." If the u Slater Shoe" had not proven to wearers its claims to comfort how long could it have remained on the market, no matter how loudly or skillfully It might have been advertised? How long could the makers have continued to expend large turns in advertising had the "Slater Shoe" fallen short in any of its advertised claims to comfort, wear and appearance ? The Slater Shoe Goodyear welled. Made In Canada 40 years. For men $4.00 and $5.50. For women $3.50 and $5.00.
