Dominion Parliament ; I Dissolved, ��� ��� ��� Monday, October 26, has ', % beeu definitely decided on * ��� as the date for the general ��� elections, with nominations J a week earlier, on October 19 ��� ��� Neb-on News. ************************* The date of the election, October 26, will como as a surprise to most people who were looking for polling the lirjt week in November. Apparently tho desire of Uie government is to give tho least possible time. Why it should so desire is easily to be seen. It is not anxious to have its record any more fully discussed lhan it can help. From the standpoint of political expediency the Kovernnmit's course is a wise one. Every day that thc campaign is prolonged means that its misdeeds and mismanagement become better known and its chances of being returned to power again become more and more remote. The issues between the two parties in this election aro cloar-cut and distinct. Mr. Borden and the conservatives stand for clean progressive government, while Sir Wilfrid Lnurier and his supporters stand for all the graft and corruption wliich has in recent years disgraced the conduct of public affairs in Canada, In British Columbia the issues are even more particulary defined than in the rest of Canada. Mr. Borden is pledged to see justice done the province in the mutter of bettor terms, while Sir Wilfrid Laurier has already refused, and will continue to refuse, to grant British Columbia the additional assistance to which she is entitled by reason of tho peculiar position which sho occupies. On tho Asiatic question also Mr. Borden stance for a -white British Columbia, while Sir Wilfrid Lnurier and his supporters stand for the opposite These are two questions which affect British Columbia particularly, and the people of the province aro now called upon to declare their position on tliem. If they declare that justice should bo done their province in the matter of better terms and if they desire a white British Columbia their duty is to vote for the conservative candidates. They have no option in tho matter. Is is either that or vote for tho liberal candidates and thus endorse Sir Wilfrid Laurier's refusal of justice and tho government's record on the Asiatic question. Mn tho constituency of Kootenay, Mr. A. S. tioodeve, as a supporter of Mr. Borden, deserves the support of every man who has the interests of British Columbia at heart. Whether as a supporter of Mr. Borden as premier of Canada, or of Mr. Borden as lender of he opposition he can bo depended upon to press the views of tho people of British Columbia on these two important questions at Ottawa until justice is done tho province in regard to both of thorn.���Nelson Daily News. Sir Wilfrid Laurier can thank him'self for the appearance of provincial premiers and ministers with Mr. Borden nt his future meetings. Among these will be Sir James Whitney, wlnn he returns from England, and some ot his ministers ill the meantime! Mr. Roblin, premier of Manitoba, Mr. Hasten, premier ot New Brunswick, and Mr. MeBride, premier of British Columbia. Sir Jol n Macdonald wns not disposed to mix federal and provincial politics. Mr. Mackenzie nnd Mr, Blake took tho same view, but Sir Wilfrid Laurier came into oilico by an alliance with provincial premiers, three of whom lie took into bis ministry. Ho bas thrown the whole federal inlluence into every provincial contest since he became premier, declaring tbat thc la te On tar 0 government waa the right arm, tbo Premier Parent's administration the left arm ot his own ministry. Sir Wilfrid's right arm was neatly amputated three yoarB ago by tho people of Ontario. lie lost his left. by a revolt among his own Quebec friends. But every Conservative provincial victory has been obtained against all tlie power that the "federal administration could exert. Rock Drilling at Ferguson. In a double-handed rock drilling contest at Ferguson last Thursday, the Slocan team, McGillivray and Erickson, were defeated by tho local team, Mills and Macdonald, Johnson and Dunn being second, after a second contest. In the first contest, Johnson and Dunn were the winners with McGillivray and Erickson second, but owing lo tho rock splitting about the thirteenth minute, whilo the latter were drilling, a protest was entered by them and a second drill was ordered. This proved to be a severe handicap to tho Slocan team, who had to temper their stools under conditions they were unaccustomed to. and Mills and Macdonald with steels more suited to tho rock, won first money, Johnson and Dunn, who were second, breaking three steels, whilst McGillivray and Erickson had to contend with a fitcherod steel. In the single-handed contest McGilli vray won first prize and Erickson sec* ond. .____. Entertainment in Bosun Hal! THE SIMMS AND SIIERRAII QUARTETTE GIVE MERITORIOUS SHOW ON WEDNESDAY. An entertainment was given In the Bosun Hall on Wednesday evening by the Messrs. Slmms and Sherrah quart** et!e of vocalists and Instrumentalist (two Indies and two gouts). There was only a moderate attendance, but those who wore fortunate enough to be there were rewarded by witnessing an entertainment of the highest character. The two indies, besides being accomplished musicians, charmed tho audience with then* delightful singing ami were repeatedly encored. The entertainment was a niOEt meritorious one throughout, with scarcely a dull moment from beginning to end, and wo feel sure that when they next visit lis thoy will meet wiih a heartier response from the public.

DISTRICT EXHIBIT OF FRUIT There is plenty ot fine fruit in the district to make a good display in the Bosun Hall next Monday, and to select a creditable exhibit at Nelson. We want every possible variety represented and it will he a grand chance to loam the names of the different kinds. It will also be a good chance to get varieties named of which thc growers are uncertain. I have not yet received word from any of the growers along the Slocan river valley as lo what they mean to exhibit. We ought to get some fine fruit from tho young trees there. Thero Is moro fungus disease showing in the apples and plums this year than 1 havo seen before and when you nre looking over your fruit lo find lbe best sort of specimens to exhibit it ia annoying to find a smell bla k epot that disqualifies what would otherwise have been a splendid specimen. Wo shnll bave to use more Bordeaux mixture and spray our trees thoroughly if wo are going to do our neighbourhood full justice at next year's show. We want you to send whatever fruit you can and wc want you to como to the Bosun Hall on Monday afternoon to enjoy the display and to bo encouraged by seeing what can be grown in onr district. J. C. HARRIS. Preserving the Forests. PROTECTION FROM FIRE SAID TO BE BEST WaY. "It you draw the attention of the man in tlio street to our rapidly diminishing supplies ol limbor bo will in nine cases out of ten say, 'Yes, thnt's so. Why the government ought to go to work and plant up tbe open spots.' Let us examine the practicability ot sucli a scheme. With a large and well-equipped nursery for the growing ot forest tree seedlings, nnd with labor at .2 per dny it is possible to reduce the coat of planting, fiyc feet apart each way to between $7 and $8 per acre. Forsake of argument let ua assume that it can bu done for . 5 au acre, or _3,*000 per square mil**. At ihis rate the planting of a township only six miles square would require tbo enormous expenditure ot .$115,000. The 'man in tlie street' will do some, pfetly hard thinking beforo he will consent to pay his abate ot the coal of such an undertaking, yet he will read in his morning paper that thirly townships, or more than a thousand square miles ol woodlands in northern Alberta, Saskatchewan or Manitoba have been destroyed by fire, and scarcely give the matter a second thought. "Would it not be very much more to the purpose to take time by the forelock and use the money required to plant up a single township for the maintenance of an efficient lire ranging system, similar to tbo ono already established in Ontario'.' To my mind the problem pressing hardest upon Hie Dominion forest service tor solution is the protection of tbe western woodlands from lire. The new railway being built through tliem imd the settlement that will quickly follow will be a constant source of danger, but if fire rangers who feel the responsibility of their position, and possess the necessary diligence, firmness and tact, lo faithfully perform their duties and secure the oo-operalion of the seniors nnd tho railway companies can be found and retained in tbo service a greal deal may bo done to save invaluable forest areas from ruthless destruction."���A.

"Do not sign it, sire," he cried. "You will live to wish that your band had withered ere It grasped that pen. I know It, sire; I am jure of It. Consider all these helpless folk���the little children, the young girls, the old and tbe feeble. Tbelr creed Is themselves. Ai well ask the lenves to change the twigs on which the>y grow.

Tbey are proud to serve In your armies, to fight for you, to work for you, to build up the greatness of your kingdom. I implore you, 'lire, to think ngaiu beforo you sign an order which will bring misery and desolation ' so many." For a moment tbe king bad hesitated .is be listened to tbe short, abrupt sentences in whicli the soldier pleaded for his fellows, but bis face hardened ngain as be remembered bow eveu bis own personal entreaty bad beeu unable to prevail witb tbis young dandy of the court. "France's religion should bo that of France's king," said be, "and if my own guardsmen thwart mo In sucb a matter I must find others who will be more faithful. That major's commission in the mousquetalres must go to Captain de Belmont, Louvois." "Very good, sire." "And De Catlnat's commission may be transferred to Lieutenant Laba- doyere." "Very good, sin*." "And I am to serve you no longer?" "You aro too dainty for my service." De Catlnat's ai ns fell listlessly t�� his side, nnd his head sank forward upon his breast, Then, ns he realized the ruin of all the hopes of his life and tbe cruel Injustice with which he bad boon treated, he broke Into a cry of despair and rushed from the room with the hot tears of impotent anger running down his face. So, sobbing, gesticulating, with coat unbuttoned nud hut awry, he burst into tbo stable where placid Amos Green was smoking his pipe and watching with critical eyes tin* grooming of the horses. "To Tiirls! To Paris!" shouted the guardsman frantically, If I nm ruined I may yet bo In time to save tbem. The horses, quick! It was clear to the American thnt some sudden calamity bnd befallen, ����� he nlded bis comrade nnd tho grooms to saddle nnd bridle. Five' minutes later thoy were flying upon tbelr wny, nud in little more than nn hour thoir steeds, nil reeking und foam flecked, were pulled up outside the high house in the Hue St. Martin. De Cutinnt sprang from his saddle and rushed upstairs, while Amos followed In bis own leisurely fashion. Tbe old Huguenot nnd his beautiful daughter wore seated nt one side of the great fireplace, hor hand In his, nnd they sprang up together, sbe to throw herself with n glad cry Into the arms of her lover and he to grasp the band which his nephew held out to bim. At the other side of the fireplace, wltb a very long pipe In his mouth and a cup of wine upon a settle beside huh, sat a strange looking man, with grizzled hair nnd board, a fleshy, red, projecting nose and two little gray eyes, which twinkled out from under huge brindled brows. Ills loug, thin 1'iico was Inced nnd seamed wltb wrinkles, crossing and rccrossing everywhere, but fanning out In hundreds from tbe corners of bis eyes. It was set In an unchanging expression, and ns it was of the same color all over, ns dark as the darkest walnut, it might bnve been some quaint flgurebend cut out of a conrse grained wood. Ho wa3 chid Iu a blue serge Jacket, n pair of red breeches smeared at the knees with tar, clean gray worsted stockings, large steal }��� *<*kles dvor bis coarse square toea BtiOes, una Beside mm, balanced upou the top of n thick oaken cudgel, wa3 a weather stained silver laced bat. His gray shot bail* was gathered up behind into a short, stiff tail, and a seaman's hunger, with a brass baudle, was girded to bis waist by a tarnished leather belt. De Catinat had been too occupied to take uotice of this singular individual, but Amos Green gave a shout of delight at the sight of bim, and ran for- wnrd to greet him. "Why, Captain Ephralm," cried Amos in English, "wbo ever would have thought of finding you here? De Catinat, this is my old friend Ephralm Savage, under whose charge I came here." "Anchor's apeak, lad, and the hatches down," said the stranger In the peculiar drawling voice whicli tlie New Engenders bad retained from the English Puritans. "And when do you sail?" "As soon ns your foot Is on her dock, if Providence serve us with wind and tide. And bow has nil gone with thee, Amos?" "Right well. I have much to tell you of." De Catlnat and his relatives wore far too engrossed with their own affairs to give n thought to the others. He Catinat told his tale 111 n few short, bitter sentences, tho Injustice that had been done him, bis dismissal from tho king's service and the ruin which had come* upon the Huguenots of France. Adele, ns is tlie angel Instinct of woman, thought only of her lover and bis misfortunes ns she*listened to his story, but the old merchant tottered to bis foot when ho heard of tbe revocation of the edict. "What nm 1 to do?" he cried. "What am I to do? I am too old to begin my life again." "Never fear, uncle," said De Catlnat heartily. "There aro other lands beyond France." "But not for me. No, no; I am too old. Lord, but thy hand is heavy upon thy servants. What sball I do nnd Whither shall I turn?" He wrung his hands in his perplexity. "What Is amiss with bim, then, Amos?" asked the seaman. "He and his must leave tbe country, Ephralm." "And why?" "Because they nre Protestants and the king will not abide their creed." Ephralm Savage was across the room in an instant nnd had inclosed the old merchant's thin hand iu his own grout knotted fist. There was a brotherly sympathy in his strong grip aud rugged, weather stained fnce. "Tell this mnn that we shnll see him through, Amos. Tell him that we've got a country where he'll just tit in like a bung in a barrel. Tell him that religion is free to all there. Tell him that if be wants to come the Golden Kod Is waiting wilh her anchor apeak aud her cargo aboard." "Then we must come nt once," said De Cntinnt ns he listened to the cordial message which was conveyed to his uncle. "Tonight the orders will be out, and tomorrow it may be too lute." "But my business!" cried tho merchant. "Take what valuables you can nnd leave the rest. Better that than lose all, and liberty inlo the bargain." And so nt last it wns arranged, That very night, within live minutes of the closing of tho gales, there passed out of Paris a small party of five, three upon horseback nnd two In a closed carriage which bore several weighty boxes upon the top. They were the first leaves (lying before the hurricane, the earliest of that groat multitude who were within the next few months to stream along every roud which led from France. Thanks to the early tidings which the guardsman had brought with him, liis little party were now ahead of the news. At ltouon all was quiet, nnd Cnptain Ephralm Savage before evening hnd brought both them and such property as they bnd saved aboard his brigantine, the Goldeu Kod. It was but a little craft, some seventy tons burden, but at a time when so many wore putting out to sea in open boats, preferring the wrnth of nature to that of the king, It wns a refuge indeed. The same night the seaman drew up bis anchor nnd begun to slowly mnke hla way down the winding river. Wltb tho early duwu tbo river broadened out nnd encb bnnk trended nway, leaving a long, funnel shaped estuary between. Ephralm Savage snuffed the air nnd paced the deck briskly, with a twinkle in his keen gray eyes. The wind bud fnllen awny, but there was still enough to drive them slowly upon tlieir course. "Where's tho gnl?" he nsked. "She's In my cabin," said Amos Green. "I thought that maybe she could manage there until we got across." "Where will you sleep yourself, then?" "Tut! A Utter of spruce boughs nud a shoot of birch bark over mo have been enough nil those yenrs. What would I ask better than this deck of soft white pine and my blanket?" "Very good. The old mau nnd his nephew���him with the blue coat���can hnve the two empty bunks. But you must speak to that man, Amos. I'll havo no philandering aboard my ship, lad; no whispering or cuddling or any such foolishness." "It's a pity that we left so quick, or tbey might have been married before we started. She's a good girl, Ephralm, nnd he a flue man, for nil Unit their ways are not the same ns ours." "But whnt Is the matter with tlie old man? IIo doesn't seem easy in bis mind," said Captain Savage. Tbo old merchant had been leaning over tbo bulwarks, looking buck with a drawn fnce nnd weary eyes nt the red curving truck behind thorn whicli marked the path to Purls. Adelo bad como up now with not n thought to spare upon the dangers nnd troubles which lay In front of her as she chafed the old mnn's thin cold bands and whispered words of love and comfort Into his cars. "Wo nro nlwnys In tbe hollow of God's hnnd," bo whispered, "but, oh, Adele, It is n dreadful thing to feel his fingers moving under us!" "Come with us, uncle," said De Cnt- Inat, passing bis arm under that of tbe old man. "It Is long since you have rested. And you, Adele, I pray that you will go and sleep, my poor darling, for It has been a weary Journey. Go now to pleaso me, and when yo* wake both France *��ud your troubles ���_ wm lie uemmi you.* When father mid daughter had left the deck De Catinat made his way aft again to where Amos Green nnd the captain were standiug. "I am glad to get them below, Amos," said he, "for 1 fear tbat we may have trouble yet." "And how?" "You see the white road which runs by the southern bunk of the river. Twice within the last half hour I have seen horsemen spurring for dear life along it. Where the spires and smoke are yonder is Hon flour, and thither it was that these men went. 1 know not who would ride so madly at such an hour unless they were the messengers of the king. Ah, see, there is a third one!" On tbo white band which wound among the green meadows a black dot could be scon, which moved nlong with great rapidity, vanished behind a clump of trees, nnd then reappeared ngnin, making for tbe distant city. Captain Savage drew out his glass and gazed at the rider. "Aye, nye," snid he ns ho snapped It up ngain. "It Is a soldier, sure enough, I can see the glint of the scabbard Which ho carries on his larboard side. t think that we shall have moro wind soon. Willi n breeze we can Show our heels to anything in French waters, but n gnlley or an armed boat would' overhaul us now." Do Catinat, who, though he could speak littlo English, bad learned In America to understand it pretty well, looked anxiously nt Amos (irci'ii. "I fear that we Nliall bring trouble on Ibis giind captain," said he, "and that tin* loss of his ear-am and ship may be his reward for having befriended ns. Ask him whether ho would not prefei to land us on tho north bank. Wit) our money wo might make our way luto tho lowlands." * Ephralm Savage looked at bis passenger witb eyes which bad lost some thing of their sternness, "young man," said be, "1 see that yon can understand somethin' of my talk." De Cntinnt nodded. "I tell you, then, that I am a bad man to bent. Any mau that was ever shipmate with me would tell you r.s much. I just jam my helm aud keep my course ns long as God will let me. D'ye see?"

Tales of Their Gloomy Darkness and Silence Denied by Modern Writers. The travelers who first penetrated the vast equatorial forest of Africa fixed the world's attention with word pictures that are now believed to be partly fantastic. Some of them told how they wandered months without seeing the sun. They lived at noonday in semi-darkness. The undergrowth almost prevented progress, no fresh breezes could penetrate the area of gloom, and even the animals were silent, like every other phase of nature existing there. To-day writers seem to take an entirely different view of the tropical forest, so that one is forced to the con- elusion that either the old-time writers or else those of modern days regard the public as a collection of stupids ready to swallow anything so long as it is thrilling or unusual. Maurice Delafosse, one of tho leading colonial officials of France, contradicts many statements of earlier travelers. He says that nowhere has he found tho African forest darker than any other dense woodland. The vegetation in it is certainly more luxuriant and more crowded together than in a European forest, but it is an exaggeration to say they arc covered with impenetrable vegetation. Wherever the natives live, well worn footpaths lend in all directions. Traveling is hard on some of them, but many of the paths are very useful highways. Delafosse had none of tlie experience of travelers wbo assert that their garments havo practically been stripped off thorn by thc dense and thorny undergrowth. He lived for month's In forest without greater damage to bis clothing than in any other parts ol Africa, except that when traveling rapidly on a hunting path his sleeves have become unduly worn at the elbows. As for darkness in the forests, ho often took his compass bearings without artificial light when pitching camp at nightfall. The forest traveler has tbis advantage, that he is always in shadow, nnd on the hottest days he can pursue bis journey the whole afternoon, which would be impossible in the open country. As for the reputed feeling of discomfort and oppression in the depths of the forest, this is partly true. When there is no stir in the atmosphere it is more difficult to breathe in the forest than in the open, nnd as there is less chance for evaporation the discomfort, of excessive perspiration is manifest. It must bo remembered, however, that if under such atmospheric conditions a man breathes more easily in the open land he is at the same time much hotter and so far more uncomfortable. When a breeze stirs anywhere it penetrates the woods also with refreshing effect. Dolafosso records that ho has had few such delightful experiences in Africa as on his morning walks in the depths of tbe forest. He has never fcund forest travel as uncomfortable as marching over the savannahs where the high grass is above his bead. It is then that a man without air, horizon or shade feels as though he would melt. There are plenty of sounds in the forest to attract attention also, and they help to keep ennui at a distance. Something is going on ull the time. In addition to the ceaseless murmur of the streams there are the humming of insects, the song of birds, the chatter of the monkeys, tlieir gymnastic feats from branch to branch, tho occasional falling of doad branches and tree trunks, and at night time the wonderful harmonies snd discords of animate and inanimate life that awaken when darkness comes and sleep again at sunrise. POLICE SPIES IN PARIS. Legitimist Leader Mystified Over Revelation by Prefect Lepine. Paris Gil Bias gives tbe world an ''lustration of the workings of the French secret police In an anecdote which It publishes witb au assurance 'hat the Incident happened recently. A distinguished member of Parisian iociety sent out invitations for a largo loiree at his house In the Faubourg it. Germain. He Is a Legitimist, and It was hardly concealed that the gathering was to bave a certain political slg- j ulficance. As soon as he heard of It Police Prefect Lepine called upon the host aud with the utmost politeness solicited a couple of invitations for agents on his staff. "M. Ie Comte." said he, "I give yon my word of honor the men to whom I Intrust tbem will look like perfect gentlemen; thoy will act like gentlemen��� In n word, tliey will be worthy of the honor you confer on them by making them your guests." Tbe count was very haughty, however. He explained with ill concealed lisdnln that bis party would be mnde up of the bluest blood iu France aud any outsider would be at once conspic- nous. SI, Lepine nppenred to be convinced; at least he yielded the point gracefully, merely adding: "At least, M. le Comte, you will allow nie to see the list of your guesto. My duty compels me to know who will be there." M. le Comte mnde uo objection. He produced the list, nnd Lepine scanned It carefully. He wns wreathed in jmlles ns he returned It Willi many bows be apologized for biivlng troubled M. le Comte. "It was so unnecessary," snld be. "1 really would have no use for those Invitations. I see thnt M. lo Comte nl ready hns on bis list of guests the names of five of ray most trusted observers."

Six thousand Hindus and a select few English officials have recently witnessed in the neighborhood of Madras a remarkable religious ceremony, thc principal actors being Solvrastas, a sect of Brahmins. The festival was called "the march through fire," and it is appropriately enough named. The proceedings were i*i honor of Brahma and Vishnu, the -gods of water and fire. Preparations for the ceremony had been going on for a month, says The London Globe. A trench 23 feet long and 19 feet deep waa dug, and in it a fire was kindled. At sunrise 40 fanatics, who were to demonstrate their asbestos nature, slowly marched around the furnace bearing the curious idols. The Solvrastas were clothed in yellow tunics," and without hesitation entered the fire trench singing a hymn, the refrain of which was "Govinda! Govinda f After walking around this artificial Gehenna three times they emerged apparently none the worse for their experience, and have established an unassailable claim for sanctity among their people. The Breathless Model. When Sir Luke Fildes was painting his famous picture, "The Village Wedding," he employed a rustic to pose as model for the bridegroom. Boon after the artist bad begun to paint the model turned deadly white. "Are you ill?" asked Sir Luke anxiously. "Naw," said thc man; "1 be all ruight, zur." However, tho painter made him rest awhile, but when he resumed work a little later the unfortunate "bridegroom" became even paler than before, and in serious alarm Sir Luke nsked him what was the matter. "It's hawthing at all except the 'olding of rue breath so long." replied the model. [For some extraordinary reason he hnd imagined that it was necessary for him to refrain from breathing all the timo he was having his portrait painted. Malta's Goats.

After the coffee is made for the wedding feast the sack Is carefully closed and sent to the new borne of the young couple nud should keep them In this staple for a year at least. When both bride and bridegroom have the birth gift of coffee thoy have started life miner very hopeful conditions, so fnr as ono necessary Is concerned. Few people know that the older tbe nn- parched grain of coffee is thc better the flavor. Like wine. It grows with age, nnd that which Is dver twenty" yenrs mellowing under proper conditions will bring from $1.50 to $*i a pound from connoisseurs. The giving of pounds of green coffee is a common practice In the coffee belt Friends exchnnge those gifts and compare results. When one cannot nfford to give n sack of coffee It frequently is tbe case thnt ten pounds of the best grain are packed In a fancy case and bestowed on a newly born child, with directions thnt It must not be opened until the wedding day.

She Should Not Necessarily Tell the Whole Truth. With so mnny people seemingly unable to tell the truth, tlie very title of a new book, "The Girl Who Couldn't Tell a Lie," is refreshing. One wishes to make her acquaintance. She would be a gladsome oasis In many an arid waste of lies. Hnve you paused to think how mnny people fail to connect with the truth? Not that one' advises wholesale truth telling. Indeed, It is only common decency to bo silent, say, on the subject of hanging when one member of the party has hnd n relntlve hanged. A little tact will usually prevent one from snying tbe rude thing. A very good rule is never to ask a question which In the answering may prove unpleasant and never to make thoughtless remarks whlcb may make somebody unhappy, uncomfortable or downright angry. In the end the heroine in the story returns to her people, penniless and broken spirited, crushed by the discovery that iu this hard and cynical world the uncompromising truth teller must pay tbe price of her heroic virtue. Poor Paulino! One feels to whisper to her that It really ls unnecessary, even unwise, to tell unpleasant truths. Only n goose girl would tell a fond and rich bachelor uncle her unvarnished opinion of him. Unless the Blood is Made Rick and Red Health Cannot Be Restored. Throughout Canada there nre thousands of growing girls and women held in the deadly clutches rf anaemia. Slowly but surely a deathly pallor settles on their cheeks; their eyes grow dull; their appetite fickle; their steps languid. Daily they are being robbed of all vitality and brightness. Their sufferings grow more acute if neglected until the signs of early consumption become apparent. If your wi'e or daughter or sister complains of weakness, pains in the side, headaches or backaches; if lier appetite and temper are uncertain and she is cl'ten low spirited anaemia has her in its deadly bold. What she needs is new, rich, red blood. Give her Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pnle People without loss of time, for they actually make new, red blood. They make girls and women well and happy impart an appetite and steadily bring back tlie charm and brightness of perfect, regular health. Miss Carrie McGrath, 2G Femviek St., Halifax, N. S., says:���"I believe Dr. Williams' Pink Pills saved my life, Throe years ago ] suffered from anaemia in n seven* form. 1 was nil run down and as pnle as a sheet. I could scarcely eat anything, and what I did take did not seem to nourish me. My bands and feet wore much swollen nnd the least exertion would leave me breathless and my heart boating violently. I seemed to have pains and ncbes all over, i was so weak I could not even sweep a floor. At different times T was under the care ot three doctors, but did not get any better. One doctor said I hnd dropsy and that my blood had nil turned to wnter. My friends thought I was in a decline nnd thnt I bad but a short time to live. I was completely discouraged myself, when one day a lady 'riend called to see me, and told me Dr. Williams' Pink Pills had cured her daughter of anaemia and urged ine to try tbem. I decided to try them, and in the course of a few weeks felt somewhat better. I met the doctor one day and he remarked how much better T was looking, I told him it was not his medicine but Dr. Williams' Pink Pills that were helping me, and he told me I hud bettor keep on taking them. I continued to do so until I had tnken nnother half dozen boxes, when my health wns perfectly restored. I nm more than grateful for what these pills have done for me and strongly .eopmmend them to all weak girls." Thousands of men and women, now well and strong, praise Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for having cured anaemia, general weakness, indigestion, rheumatism, neuralgia, nervous disorders, paralysis and the ailments of girlhood ' and womanhood. These Pills do this by making new, red blood which feeds thc starved nerves, drives out disease and strengthens every organ in the body.

Fine niching runs Into money If one keeps it always fresh and dainty. The luce edge commonly seen is apt to droop over and look untidy. Here Is oue way a fashionable dressmaker solves the difficulty. She makes a close box plaiting of very narrow lace. It ls as snug nnd keeps its place as well as a soft crepe lisse ruche. There ls noue of the falling over of the ordinary lace edge. It Is a dainty finish In harmony with tbe blouse, especially if It Is lace trimmed, and It is not expensive. If you buy your blouses rendy made, just get a bit of verjr narrow Valenciennes, plait it in nnd see what a dainty, pretty finish it is. A pretty cord bolder ls mnde with a large piece of heavy cardboard, wltb the three points joined nt tbe top to form a triangle sbnpcd receptacle that will bold n ball of cord. Make a hole In the bottom of thc box and draw tbe end of tbe cord through. Fasten the sides together wltb little bows of baby ribbon nnd tie nt tbe top with baby ribbon. Next to leather Itself, nothing ls more useful for covering shirt waist and other utility boxes than burlap. Then, too, If tbo color selected harmonizes with the color scheme of the room It combines beauty with usefulness. Tbe edges of tho box should be finished off with linen braid of the color of tlie burlap and held In plnce by button tucks. Both the brnid nnd tbe tacks may be bought of nny upholsterer or iu nny drapery department of any general furnishing store. Burlap enn be used with splendid effect for portieres where an Inexpensive yet attractive material Is desired.

DON'T GIGGLE, GIRLS. Nothing More Infectious and Charming Than a Good Laugh. If half the girls knew bow silly they looked and sounded when they constantly giggled they would stop It. Learn to smile, not giggle. Nothing is more Infectious and charming than a good laugh, but very few people know how to laugh, it ls ns rare In life as It le on the stage. A giggle usually comes from nervousness. A girl will giggle when she cannot think of anything to sny or when she is trying to be at ease In company. Sbe will giggle when a boy meets her aud says "Good morning.'.' She will giggle when he says "Goodby." She ls only nervous, but she appears silly. It Is no wonder that young men speak with utter scorn of the giggling girl. They seem to think her the least attractive maiden on earth. It Is trying to attempt to hold uny kind of conversation with a girl who will punctuate her every remark with giggles. It Is not always possible to know nt first tnnught whether or not you nre one of the girls who giggle. Stop and think nbout It. Watch yourself the next time you nre with nny one. See whether (bis senseless trick Is a part of your social equipment If It Is, tnke nny heroic means to Btrangle thnt giggle until It Is dend. Fur better be silent. Yoii mny then get the credit for wisdom thnt you have not got. Bolter tbun nil, If you don't know how to give n cheery, musical, spontaneous laugh, then try your best to learn how to smile. Do not lot yourself give a weary smile, for that Is the result of effort and self consciousness, but anything Is better than a silly giggle. TO TEST MATERIALS. Distinguishing Pur* Linen From Counterfeit Is Easy. Of the goods sold ns "all wool" tbere Is uot one-tenth thut Is genuine. Generally the main component Is cotton. The test for this Is simple. All that Is necessary Is to pull out a few threads aud apply a lighted match. Cotton will go off in a blaze; wool will shrivel up. To distinguish pure linen from counterfeit Is even easier. The Intended buyer need but wet her finger nnd np- ply It to the goods. If they nre pure linen, the moisture will pnss straight through; the spot touched will be soaked at once, and almost immediately one side will he us wet as the other. Frauds nre more numerous In silk tban in any other fabric, but here also the material of adulteration Is cotton. Its presence can rendily be discovered. Draw a few threads out. Tbe pieces of cotton will snap off short when pulled, while the silk will stretch and permit a considerable pull before brenktng. The bousted silk of our grandmothers that "stood by Itself" ls not necessarily the best. Modern Ingenuity has devised means of giving tlie poorest article the body requisite for this purpose. Shellac and other sticky substances mixed through the fabric will produce ns stiff u silk as ever graced the wardrobe of our ancestors. Such stuff Is quite worthless, however, as it quickly rots.

Our present system of society is based on a state of perpetual war. Do any of you think this is as it should bo? I know that you have often been told that tbe competition which is at present the rule of trade s a good tiling and that it stimulates the progress of the race, but the people who tell you this should call competition by its shorter name of war if they wish to be honest, and you would then be free to consider whether or no war stimulates progress otherwise thnn ns a mud bull chasing you over your own garden may do. War or competition, whichever you may please to cull it, means at the best pursuing your own advantage at the cost of some one else's loss, and in tho process of it you must not be sparing of destruction even ol your own possessions or you will certainly corns by the worst in the struggle. You understand that perfectly as to the kind of war in which people go out to kill and be killed���that sort of war in which ships are commissioned, for instance, "to sink, burn and destroy"���but it appears that you are not so conscious of this waste of goods when you aro only carrying on that other war called competition. Observe, however, that the waste ia there all the snme. Well, surolv Socialism can offer yon something in the plnce of all that. It can. It can offer you peace and friendship instead of war. We might livo utterly without national rivalries, nc- knowledgillg that, while it is best lor Ihoso who feel thnt tbey naturally form a community under one name to govern themselves, yet that no community in civilization should feel that it had interests opposed to any other, tlieir economical condition being at any rate similar; so thn-t any citizen of one community eould fall to work and live without disturbance of his life when he was in n foreign country and would fit into his place quite naturally; so that all civilized nations would form one great, community, agreeing together as to the kind and amount of production and distribution needed, working at such and such production whore it could be best produced and avoiding waste hy all moans. Please to think of the amount of waste which thoy would avoid; how much such a change would add to the wealth of the world!���William Morris, British Manufacturer and Socialist. Landse.r's Valet. Sir Edwin Landseer, the famous animal painter, had an old servant ��� his butler, valet and faithful slave ���named William, who was particularly assiduous In guarding the outer portal. No one could by any possibility gain direct access to Sir Edwin, The answer would invariably be, "Sir Hedwin is not at 'ome." The prince consort himself once received this answer when he called, amplified on that occasion by the assurance that "he lind gone to n wedding," an entire fiction on William's part, as the princo found out, for on walking boldly in nnd nround the garden be noticed Sir Edwin looking out of his studio window. This was the faithful attendant who, one day, when a lion had died at tbe zoo nnd his corpse came up in a four wheeled cab to ht painted from, startled his master with the question, "Please.

In his early days it was suggested to Mr. Meredith, the novelist, that he should take up his residence with Rossetti at Queen's House, Cheyne Walk. The novelist agreed to take a couple of rooms, and one morning, shortly after Rossetti had moved in, Mr. Meredith, wbo was living in May- fair, drove over to Chelsea to inspect his new apartments. "It was past noon," relates Mr. Meredith; "Rossetti had not yet risen, though it was an exquisite day. On the breakfast table in a huge dish rested five thick slabs of bacon, upon which five rigid eggs had slowly, bled to death! Presently Rossetti nppenred in dressing gown, with slippers down at heel, and devoured the dainty repast like an ogre." This decided Mr. Meredith. He did not even trouble to look at his rooms, but sent in a quarter's rent that afternoon and remained ia May fair. Byron's Proposal. Lord Byron in 1330 seriously turned his thoughts to matrimony. He confided to a friend liis intention of proposing te Miss Milbanke, the daughter of Sir Ralph Milbanke. The friend thought some other lady more suitable and agreed with Byron to write a proposal for him. One day as thc two were sitting together Byron received a refusal from the lady. "You see," said he, "that after all Miss Milbanke is to be the person. I will write to her." Accordingly he did so, and the friend, who was still opposed !o his choice, on reading over the letter remarked: "It really is a vory pretty letter. It is a pity it should not go." "Then it Rhall go," said Byron. It went, and the result was the miserable marriage which is now �� matter of history. Two Points of View. An old Scotchwoman was walking to church with ber family. The aula kirk minister rode past at a tremendous rate, and the old lady said to her children: "Siccan a wey to be ridin', and this the Sawbath day. Aweel, aweel, a gude man is marcifu' to his beast!" Shortly afterward her own minister rode past just ns furiously, and the worthy old wifie cried: "Alls there he Roes!

While we may pick and choose aad ���do exactly as we please about our ' I'lothes, there have been ln times gone "by, In many countries and even iu our own, what were known as "sumptuary laws." These laws regulated expenditure for dress, for ornament, for food or for whatever refreshments you might give company when they came to take ten. Among tho lirst of these sumptuary laws was one made in Home In -15 13. C. and called the "Oppian law." It declared that no woman should possess more than half nn ounce of gold, wear ���a dress of different colors or ride in a vehicle In the city or within a mile of it except on occasions of public religious ceremonies. This lav/ lasted only twenty years. Italy and Franco are the countries where most of these laws have been passed, and some of tbem read very Gtrangcly. In 1330, In Italy, no woman was allowed to wear a dress with figures painted on it; she could only havo them embroidered.

One of the first copies of the book happened to be seen by Eschol Sellers, who went at once to Hartford and enjoined the publication. A compromise wns effected by which the publishers pnid Kellers $5,000 for damages and cut all of the plates, removing the name Eschol and substituting that of Mulberry.
