Single Copies 501 Election of Rip* Trustees. f- It is gratifying to note the healthy financial conditi in ol tin* New Denver Skating Rink, which bu Id ing is also in a splendid condition. This is a town ass.*t, built by volunteer labor and sub- SOiiption, and every winter the building i-1 rented by a local man, who makes a substantial clean-up ami the trustees aro thus able to keep the building in a good Elate of repair. Although Iho climatic conditions now enjoyed in New Denver are far removed from wintry in thc accepted sense of the name, yet there arc many who would willingly welcome a. visit from Jack Frost and his accompanying train of painful Inflictions, so ns to have opportunity ol participating in that most exhilarating of all pastimes: Skating. A well-attended meeting was held on Tuesday night, when the election of trustees for the season took place. Messrs. J. T. Black, A. Jacobson nnd II. Cue were the choice of the citizens, and they ure now gc'ting everything In shape so as to be ready for the hist cold snap. The secretary reportod a substantial balance. Card of Thanks. The New Denver Lodge K. of P. wish to convey their heartfelt thanks to all who contributed by their efforts to make their recent Concert ar.d Ball so great a success, and particularly are thants extended to tho ladies who provided the excellent refreshments. As Clear as Mud. After reading the findings of Justices living, Morrison and Martin in the Star-White case, we in common with the average lay leader reluctantly admit we do not Bavvy what the two last named judges are talking about. We hone the day .U not far distant when all legal writing) and liiiuings viill be couched in good old public school language, and then tlieie will be something intelligible for the people and all the lawyers will be cither policemen or tinhorns. Our mad staff lawyer has handed in the f.How ing: ���' I am buuml to admit that tlie black fifsuie, which in composed of nitroglycerine, blackjack, graphite, nagya- giic, inelaconlte, -porous plaster and other breakfast foods, hits the apex on the extralateral, therefore whereas moreover Harris to wit makes it stick, which to me is as clear as mud (Bee Nonh vs. Moses vie. ii, sec. 2 p. 3 a, e, i, o, u, and w and y s metimes); but ii White had a ace._iii the crosscut and cji'dwood was two and a half a rick, as in Adam vb.

Judgment Bhould be held up sine die, status quo, ora pro nobis and Harris should Bet 'em up." At Hymen's Attar. A pretty wedding was celebrated on the 26th ult, at the Manse, Greenwood, by the Rev. Mr. McKee, when Duncan W. Stuart, a popular young man in the mechanical depaitment of the Granby mine led to the altar Miss Beicie Florence Radcliffu, eldest daughter of Daniel Radcliffe, for many years an esteemed resident of New Denver. The happy couple are now spending their honeymoon in town. Injured Man Progressing. Upcm enquiry at the Slocan Hospital this morning, wo learned that the man Hiram Selnivei* who was so badly injured by falling with an ore car over the dump at tlie Standard mine last week, is progressing favorably and now on the road to recovery. The Sick List. E. Brookmln, a deck hand from the steamer Slocan, was admitted to the hospital ou the 4th inst. witli apparent symptoms of typhoid fever. F. Whitfield, an employee of the Hewitt mine who has been an inmate of the hospital suffering from severe blood poisoning ol the hand, returned to the mine on Wednesday last. John Cameron, teamster, of Silver- ton, who has also been treated for erysipelas of the hand, has returned to work. J. C. Bolander has nearly finished stumping his new fruit ranch in the uppertown, but a couple of big stumps are causing him some trouble owing to his having nothing to anchor to. He is now in tlie bills hunting for a goat to butt them out���a white one for preference. It is quite on the cards that a well- known merchant from a nearby town will shortly consolidate with one of our prominent merchants. When next the C.P.R. thinks of publishing a pamphlet or fulder illustrative of thc benuty spots for tourist travel, we would certainly like to take a hand in its compilation. The world would tiim learn something about" Bounteous Slocan " and lead less about that joint on the main line where the drunks go to cool off. TOURISTS, TENTION! While in F.astc Canada they are suffering from ma* chilling blizzards and frost bite; w ou the western coast tho populace t.aile along the whole day 'neiith the everlasting umbrella and leaden skies; while all around in the interior of the province Mother Earth ie enveloped in her winter raiment��� Beautiful, bounteous, lilvcry Slocan yet raises its smiling emerald face to a summer sun. 0, ye if little faith; how long, how long ?

Herbert Cue was out after big game last Wednesday, but whether he shot anything is neither here nor there, as Johnny McDonald remarked when he missed the target at the annual rifle shoot. The most encouraging news from the Boundary was received with great pleasure by the people of the Slocan. Witli the Granby mines and smelter resuming again shortly the outlook is far rosier than was anticipated a week ago. The Sandon suit of Forrc3t vs. Smith and Treves will be tried this week at Nelson. The plea is for an order for cancellation of mortgage, which if allowed will givo plaintiff and partners right to sell the ore mined by them at the Payne whilst working under a sublease from thu defendants. Bluebird in Ore. From the Bluebird comes most excellent reports. This property has been shutdown for several years, but this summer a lease and bond was obtained by a syndicate oi local men consisting of Messrs. P. and It. McLanders. J. A. McKinnon, It. Turner and A. Forrest, and di if ting on tho lead they have struck 20 inches oi galena ore, a car of which is now sacked for shipment. Ore Struck at Goodenough. A few months ngo we reported that the Goodenough group had been bonded by a syndicate of Sandon miuing mon, whose program was to crosscut to the rich Rei'O-Goodenough ledge, from which the richest car of oie said to have b"er. shipped from the district was extracted. The crosscut at the time of the syndicate taking up the property was in 200 feet, and this has now been driven for another 300 feet. We have it fom what ne consider a reliable source that eleven inches of ore lias been struck, but wc do not think that they uie in far enough yet for the main ledge to have been tapped. The ore is of a much lower grade. The Christinas Show. Through the courtesy of Mr. T. T. Raukine, our representative was permitted to witness the first act ot the grand operatta, " The Four-Leaved Clover " one evening this week. This operetta is now in eourse of preparation by tho sehool children under the con- duotorship of Mr. Rankine, the school teacher, assiste 1 bv his talented wife. We confess to icceiving a surpii e that will linger pleasantly long in our memory; indeed, it is one of the sweetest musical feasts served up by an aggregation of school children it has beeh our lot to hear. There are in all about eighty performeis whose training will on the night of the 24th inst. be a source of pride and pleasure to parents and the public generally who are lucky enough to be present. l Slocan Xake fvuit 3Lan6e None Better B For Full Information write S.

Last Sunday evening the cabin owned by Tom McKochnie, situate near the Silverton wharf was totally destroyed by fire. Although the building was not a large one, the flames lit, up the lake for many miles around, and mnny citizens of New Denver took to saddle horses and rigs and hastened to our sister town to render assistance fearing that a blaze ot more considerable dimensions was in progress. The outbreak was caused by the owner upsetting a lamp. The newly formed Quadrille club is meeting with the approval of the girls and boys of the Lucerne if wo are to be guided by the large crowds which havo attended its weekly hop since the club's inception.

Spokane, Dec. 5.���Seen at his offices in the Empire State building last night with regard to the recent decision in the Star-White case, Byron N. White said he would contest the claims of the plaintiff to the court of last resort. He added there is little doubt that tie Privy Council will bo asked to sit finally on the case. His company believed that a more dispassionate consideration of tho enso could be had in England than in Canada. He said: " We have not been making this fight for six years for tho fun of it, and wo will not continue spending money just to keep the case in court. We bo- lievo we are in the right, that in the end the highest court of jurisdiction In Great Britain can not fail to deal out to ua the justieo which we have so long sought.

We are sorry to report that John McKaskill, of Cody, is laid up at the hospital with bronchitis. " Hello, Central I Give me Cody." The 'phone line has again been opened up between that point and Sandon after a protracted shut-down. The Reco mine sent out another car of high-grade eiiver-lead ore to Trail smelter this week. Will Jaffery left this morning for a trip to Golden, B.C. He also expects to pay hie folks in Eastern Canada a visit shortly. On Tuesday night an enjoyable dance and supper was held in the M.U. hall, in honor of Miss Mary Mclntyre, who is leaving for Vancouver with her parents very shortly. "Harold, keep off my toe " is beard quite often at the dances now. Harold has mado his debut, and is learning to hop. Ern. Towgood left with a string of pack horeos and mules for Lardo this week, where they will be put to pasture for tbe winter. Oro is being rawhided down from the Sunset now to Cody. Alex.

Owing to the curling rink building collapsing under lho heavy pressure of snow last spring, the curling club, which also owns the skating rink, nro trying to come to an amicable arrangement with tlie skaters wherein they will both havo throe nights a week. So far the skaters have turned down tho proposition Ior tho reason that they would not havo access to the centre of the Ice, whicli would bo reserved for curling, and that it would debar them from playing hockey. There is ulso a disagreement as to the division of concurrent oxponses, and the outlook for a winter's fun for tho girls and boys Is very gloomy.

Nothing is as it was in those good old days. Then a boy was a boy, he wore overalls and was dressed for work. He had half a day's work to do before going to school and another after his return, and you could kick him ton feet and he would bound back. Now a boy is a "kid." When he gets ready to go to school he can't carry in a pail of water for fear of spoiling his clothes. If he gets home before the evening meal is��done, something is wrong, and If you keep him home after 8 p.m. you will require a atling gu-n. Then the clothing was all made at home, and the only way you could tell which was front or rear was to watch the forpiece of his cap. The clothing was so that he could turn round in them after they were on and thus fool his friends. Our sisters worked and helped to cook and wash and mend and all oth-sr work. Now they have luck if they get duds on In time to get breakfast and go to school. When the preacher came the boys snd girls were expected to sit straight as a cop and speak when spoken to. Now they are brought to the front and pnt through their paces. The girl must knock a few stars out of the piano or organ and the boy must "Bpeak his piece" and look like a sick monkey begging for raisins. Everything is progressive. They used to gst married for two dollars and begin housekeeping for .50. The bride made her own clothes and the grooms mother made his.. One suit lasted a year for "good," and one or two more for every day. Th��y rocked the baby to sleep in a "saptrough," and had a chunk of salt-pork for de3crt. Tho whole community would work sixteen hours and then go to a "shindig" and old and young dance till twilight. They had no "brainstorms," "heart failures," nor "appendicitis." "Brainsto-ms" were curol wi'h a water elm club, heart failures wore called "fits" and appendicitis was called bolly ache. They rolled the patient on a barrel or rubbed with a hot brick, and no ono knew he had a vermiform doflicker that was liable to get full of chug stoneB or ground cherry seeds. We used to eat soup and have "Bass" ot all kinds. Now we have fruit salad and consomme and biscuits made from baking powder that look as though some one had sat on them.

Our Fruit Growers' Column. Any person who undertakes the planting of an orchard in the Slocan country, will he certain before long to find himself face to face with the problem of how to (obtain a sufficient supply of manure so that he might bring this land to the highest possible degree of fertility. I believe that tho best lands in this neighborhood are eminently adapted to the growth of fruit, largely owing to tlieir splendid natural drainage but we must recognise the fact that this advantage of a gravelly and open Buh- soil tends to mako them particularly difficult to keep supplied wiuh manure; tbey are what is known as " hungry soile." Generally speaking there will be little necessity for undcrdraining hero. If more underdrainiug was nocos- sary, there would probably bo lets manure required. Let us then consider the three possible sources of manures to fertilise our lands. First there is barn yard manure, of which there is fortunately a fairly good supply, and* which wo shall learn in time to value moro highly and to tako better care of bo as to prevent its being worked by the action of the sun and rain. The second source will bo obtained from various green crops that we shall grow for the express'purpose ol ploughing under and thus increasing the fertility and improving the mechanical textnro or condition of the soil. Chief amongst these crops will be thc various clovers, peas and beans. The third Bourca will be obtained by trying artificial fertilizers and applying these scientifically to supplement the deficiencies in tho soil of the different forms of nutriment required by the plants, for plants in this respect are like ourselves and they must be fed an all round diet to supply tlieir different requirements of their roots, stems, leaves and flowers. We should starve to death on an exclusive diet of lean beef, however excellent Mr. Clever's steaks may be, and no vegetarian however enthusiastic, would preach an unvaried diet of soda-crackers or pumpkins. The researches of agricultural ch��m- ists have proved that there are various elements which must be present in the soil, and without any one of which, plant life is simply impossible. Some of these, such as iron, we may safely assume to be present. Another one, lime is also probably abundant, but tho fact needs to be proved, and I would venture to appeal to our eminent friend Chas. Twigg, who has lately taken a course of agriculture at the Ontario Agricultural College, to take upon himself the thorough testing of the soils of this neighborhood. He would need to get a number of Bmall samples of the soil from the head of the lake, from Rosebery, irom Mr. Cropp's ranch, and from New Denver, and so on all down and around the lake and Slocan River valley. He would; need toJ observe whether the country rock underlying tbe soils was of a granitic or shaly character and then by a simple experiment witb a very small amount of hydrochloric acid and a few test tubes he could settle this important question for all time in this neighborhood. I shall look forward to publishing tho results of his experiments with great interest in the near future. Wo may also got a great amount of valuable information as to the requirements of our soil j by forwarding a similar set of samples of soil to tho labra- tories so wisely provided by tho Canadian government; the collection and forwarding of these samples would bo a most excellent work for tho children of the senior school under the direction and supervision of Mr. Rankine, it is possible tliey might reap a reward even iu th is would by partaking of finer and moro abundant fruit as tho result ol their public spirit. The experiments and tOBts to prove tho presence or absence of lime in the soil might also be most profitably used as a lossou in nature study. In succeeding articles I hope to discover tho other funns and sources of fertility for our soils.

Nearly all mining camps havo "boom" times, and also periods of depression, and the Slocan camp has been no exception to thc usual course of events. New life has been infused into dead or languishing camps In various ways. About the limo when Butte, Mont., was losing piestige as a gold- silver camp, the fact was discovered that it was really ono of tho greatest copper camps on earth, Sudbury, Ont., was struggling along as a third rate [copper ramp when Bomoone noted that it was a "bonanza" nickel producer. Leadville, Colo., has had all sorts of ups and downs, aud moBt of the notablo camps all over tho world have troubles much tho aame as a normal child haa croup, measles and se on. The Slocan is hardly likely to be'trans- formed into a gold or copper camp, but that it has good chances of yot becoming a really great silver producer is a certainty, as a result of two recent great improvements, one in the metallurgy of zinc and the other in the treatment of complex silver bearing ores. In Mexico to-day, American mining companies ure slowly but surely solving the problem of treating complex low grade silver ores, such as occur in large bodies in the mines of the Granite area in the south end of this district; therefore before long, lively times and prosperity may again prevail along'the dry ore belt of the Slocan. It is a possibility of the near future that zinc ores may bo reduced to spelter locally; for it is now a certainty that zinc ores can bo smelted by use of electricity and that the cheapes place to establish a plant is where water power is available. The Slocan has both zinc ores and complete water power. Regarding the local treatment of silver ores, such as occur abundantly in the granite area here; theso will undoubtedly be amenable to the same methods of treatment as similar ores now being treated with much success in Mexico. The least complex of these ores are crushed and slimed, and then thoroughly agitated, in special tanks, by means of compressed air, a solution of cyanide having previous been added to the slimes. The silver in the Blimed ore is extracted by the cyanide solution, which is then separated from the pulp or slimes by means of filter frames, the silver afterwards being precipitated from the cyanide solution by chemical means. Ores contaning refractory elements or minerals such as galena, zinc blende,, antimony, arsenic, etc., are after crushing, passed over BloWly moving belt concentrators which are capable of holding very fine metallic particles, the slimes going over to the agitation tanks In the usual way. In Mexico, the electro-cyanide idea appears to have gone to the "hocus po- ens" pile as no mention is made of the ' Pellatan-Cletacy, Parks or Hendry x' " proces��es; however it is possible that after the cyanide solutions have extracted the silver content from the slimed and agitated ore, that sonic form of electric deposition of the silver may prove more effective than, the filter, frame, and the chemical prcclpltalion melhod nov*. in use. Mining men in this camp should carefully wntch tho progress now being made in nre treatment in Mexico; as the Improvements mode there will surely In tinio bring new life and prosperity to the Slocnn Lake section of this district. ��� J.

Tt was Guy who received her, Guy who pointed to a chair, Guy who seemed perfectly at home, and, naturally enough, she took him for Dr. Holbrook, wondering who the other black-haired man could be, and if he meant to stay in there all the while. It would be very dreadful if he did, and in her agitation nnd excitement the 6ube root was in danger of being altogether forgotten. Half guessing the cause of her uneasiness, and feeling more averse than ever to taking part in the matter, the doctor, after a hasty survey of her person, withdrew into the background, and sat where he could not be seen. This brought the short dress into full view, together with the dainty little foot, nervously beating the floor. "She's very young," he thought; 'too young, by far," and Maddy's chances of success were beginning to decline even before a word had been spoken. How terribly still it was for the time during which telegraphic communications were silently passing between Guy and the doctor; the latter shaking his head decidedly, while the former insisted that he should do his duty. Madeline could almost hear the beatings of her heart, and ;only by counting and recounting the poplar trees growing across the street could she keep back the tears. What :was he waiting for, she wondered, and, at last, summoning all her courage, she lifted her great brown eyes to Guy, and said, pleadingly: "Would you be so kind, sir, as to begin?" "Yes, certainly," and electrified by that young, bird-like voice, the sweetest save one he had ever heard, Guy knocked down from the pile of books the only one at all appropriate to the occasion, the others being as fnr beyond what was taught in the district schools as his classical education was beyond Madeline's couimon one. Remembering that the teacher of whom he had once been for n week a pupil, in the town of Framingham, had commenced operations by sharpening a lead pencil, so he now sharpened a similar one, determining as far as he could to follow that teacher's example. Mnddy counted every fragment as it fell upon the floor, wishing so much that lie would commence, nnd fancying that it would not be half so bad to have him approach her with some one of the terrible dental instruments lying before her, as it was to sit nnd wait as she was waiting. Had Guy Remington reflected a little, he wonid never hnve consented to do the doctor's work; but, unaccustomed to country usages, especially those pertaining to schools and teachers, he did not consider that it mattered which examined tnat young girl, himself or Dr. Holbrook. Viewing it somewhat in the light of a Joke, he rather enjoyed it! and as tht Framingham teacher had first asked her pupils their names and ages, so he, when the pencil was sharpened sufficiently, startled Madeline by asking her name. "Madeline Amelia Clyde," was the meek-reply, which Guy quickly recorded. Now, Guy Remington intended no irreverence; indeed, he could not tell what he did intend, or what it was which prompted his next query: "Who gave you this name?" Perhaps he fancied himself a boy again in the Sunday school, and standing before the railing of the altar, where, with others of his age, he had been asked the question propounded to Madeline Clyde, who did not hear the doctor's smothered lnugh as he retreated into tho adjoining room. In all her preconceived ideas of this examination, she had never dreamed of being catechised, and with a feeling of terror as she thought of that long answer to the question, "What is thy duty to thy neighbor?" and doubted her ability to repeat it, she said: "My sponsors, in baptism gave me the first name of Madeline Amelia, sir," adding as she caught and misconstrued the strange gleam in the dark eyes bent upon her, "I am afraid I have forgotten some of thc catechism; I did not know it was necessary in order to tench school." "Certainly, no; I do not think it is. I beg your pardon," were Guy Remington's ejucuhitory replies, as he glanced from Madeline to the open door ot the adjoining room, where was visible a slate, on which, in huge letters, the amused doctor had written "Blockhead." There was something in Madeline's quiet, womanly, earnest manner which commanded Guy's respect, or he would have given vent to the lnugh ter which wai- choking him, and thrown off his disguise. But he could not bear now to undeceive her, and, resolutely turning his back upon the doctor, he sat down hy that pile of books and commenced the examination in earnest, asking first her age. "Going on fifteen," sounded older to Madeline thnn "Fourteen and a half," bo "Going on fifteen" was the reply, to which Guy responded: "That is very young, Miss Clyde." "Yes, but Mr. Green did not mind. He's the committeeman. He knew how young I was," Madeline said, eagerly, her great brown eyes growing large with the look of fear which came so suddenly into them. Guy noticed the eyes then, and thought them very bright and handsome for brown, but not so bright or handsome as a certain pair of soft blue orbs he knew, nnd feeling fl thrill of satisfnetion that sweet Lucy Atherstone was not obliged to sit there in thnt doctor's office to be questioned by him or any other mnn, he said: "Of course, if your employers are satisfied it is nothing to me, only I hnd associated teaching with women much older thnn yourself. Whnt is logic, Miss Clyde?" The abruptness with which he put the question startled Mndeline to such s degree thnt she could not positively tell whether she hnd ever henrd thnt word before, much less could .she recall its meaning, nnd so she answered frankly. "I don't know." A girl who did not know what logic wns did not know much, in Guy's estimation, but it would not do to stop here, and so he nsked her next how ji".n** eases..thorp j-icre in LutlO-l. MarM-v' felt "fh(* **hot _iTodb'*Tini.rilSg to her very finger-tips, the examination had tnken n course so widely different from her idens of whnt it would prohnhly he. She hnd never looked inside n I.ntin ernmmnr, snd Benin her truthful "T don't know, sir." fell on Guy's ear, but this time there was a hnlf-desnniritii? tone in the voung voice usually so hopeful. "Perhnns, then, yon enn ennjuente the verb Amo." Guv snid. his manner indicntine the doubt he wu* he- pinning to feel ns to her qualifications. Mnddv knew well whnt "coniupnte" meant, but thnt vrb Amo. whnt could it. menu' nnd hnd she ever henrd it before? Mr. Rnrnintrton wns wnitine for her; she mt'R' snv snmnthine. nnd with n pnsp she bepi-n ��� ''I nmo. thou amor-st. he nmo<*s. Plnrnl* We amo. ye or you nmo. they nmo." Guy looked nt her ni?bnst for n sin- pie moment, nnd then n cnmicnl smile hrnko nil over his fnce. telling poor Mnddy plainer thnn could words that she hnd made n most ridiculous mistake. "Oh, sir," she cried, her eyes wearing the lock nf tbe frichtened hnre. "it is not right. T don't know whnt it means. Tell me, tench me. What is it to nmo?" To most men it would not hnve seemed a very disncreeable task, tenehinp young Madeline Clyde "to amo," ns she termed it. and some such idea flitted across Guy's mind, ns be thought how pretty and bripht was tbe enger face upturned to his. thc pure white forehead, suffused with a fnint flush, the cheeks a crimson hue, nnd tbe pnle lips parted sliphtly ns Mnddy appenled to him for the definition of "nmo." "It is a I.ntin verb, nnd menns 'to love,'" Guy said, with nn emphasis on the Inst word, which would hnve mnde Mnddy blush hnd she been less anxious and friphtened. Thus far she hnd answered nothing correctly, nnd, feeling puzzled to know how to proceed, Guy stepped into the adjoining room to consult with the doctor, but he was gone. So, returning, Guy resumed the examination by asking how "minus into minus could produce plus." Again Maddy was at fault, and her low-spoken "I don't know" sounded like a wail of despair. Did she know anything, Guy wondered, and feeling some curiosity now to ascertain that fact, he plied her with questions philosophical, questions algebraical, and questions geometrical, until in an agony of distress Maddy raised her hands deprecatingly, as if she would ward off any similar questions, and sobbed out: "Oh, sir, no more. It makes my head so dizzy. They don't tench that in common schools. Ask me something 1 do know." Suddenly it occurred to Guy that he had gone entirely wrong, and mentally cursing himself foi thp blockhead the doctor had called him, be asked kindly: "What do they teach? Perhaps you can enlighten me?" "Geography, arithmetic, grammar, history, and spelling-book," Madeline replied, untying and throwing off her bonnet, in the vain hope that it might bring relief to her poor, giddy head, which throbbed so fearfully thnt all her ideas seemed for the time to have left her. This was n natural consequence of the high excitement under which she was laboring, nnd so, when Guy did ask her concerning the books designated, she answered but little better than before, and Guy was wondering what he should do next, when the doctor's welcome step was heard, and leaving Madeline again, he repaired to the next room to report his ill- success. "She does not seem to know anything. The veriest child ought to do better thnn she has done. Why, she has scarcely answered half a dozen questions correctly." This wns whnt poor Maddy heard, thouph it *wns spoken in a low whisper; but every word was distinctly understood and burned into her heart's core, drying her tears and hardening her into a block of marble! She knew that Guy had not done bet justice, and this helped to increnso the torpor stealing over ber. Still ���she did not lose n sylloble of whnt was saying in the back office, and her lips curled scornfully when she heard Guy remnrk: "I pity her; she is so young, and evidently tnkes it so bnrd. Maybe she's ns good as they average. Suppose we give her the certificate." ���""Then Dr. Holbrook spoke, but to poor, dazed Maddy his words were all a riddle. It was nothing to him ���who was he that he should be dictating thus? There seemed to be a difference of opinion between the young men, Guy insisting that out ol pity she should not be rejected; and the doctor demurring on the ground thnt he ought to be more strict. As usual, Guy overruled, nnd seating himself at the table, the doctor wns just commencing: "I hereby certify " while Guy wns bending ovm him, when the latter was startled bv a bnnd lnid firmly on his arm, and turning quickly be confronted Mnde line Clyde, who. with ber short hail unshod from ber blue-veined fore head, her fnce ns pale ns ashes, snvi where a round spot of purplish red burned upon her cheeks, and her t*yes gleaming like coals of lire, stood before him. "He need not write thnt," she snid, huskily, pointing to the dotttor. "It would hp n lie. nnd I could not take it. You do not think me qualified. ? henrd ynu sny so. I do not wnnt to be pitied. I do not wnnt a certificate because I nm so young a:.d you think r'U feel bndly. I do not want " Her voice failed her, her bnsom heavi-d. and the clinking sobs came thick and fnst. but still she shed no tear, and in ber bright, dry eyes there was a look which made both those voung men turn nway involuntarily Once Guy tried to excuse her failure saying she no doubt wns friphtened She would probably do better npnin nnd might ns well nccept the certi ficntp. but Mndeline still snid nn, so decidedly thnt further remonstrance wns useless. She would not take whnt she hnd no right to, she snid, hut if they plensed she would wnit there in the bnck ofiice until her grand father came bsck; it would not be long, and she should not trouble thorn. Guy brought her the easy-eh'tlir from the front room and placed it fnr her by the window. With a faint smile Bhe thanked him and said "You are very kind," but the smile hurt Guy cruelly, it was so sad, so full of unintentional reproach, while the eyes she lifted to his looked so grieved and weary that he insensibly murmured to himself: "Poor child!" as he left her, and with the doctor repaired to the house, where Agnes was impatiently waiting for them. Poor, poor little Madge! Let those smile who may at ber distress; it was the first keen disappointment she hnd ever had, and it crushed her ns com pletely as mnny an older person has been crushed by heavier cnlamities. "Disgraced for ever and ever," she kept repeating to herself, as she tried to shake off the horrid nightmare stealing over her. "How can I htild up my head again nt home where nobody will understand just how it was���nobody but grnndpn nnd grand* ma? Oh, grandpa, I can't earn thnt thirty-six dollars now.

MONTHS OF AGONY A Severe Case of Rheumatism Cured by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills "For many weary months I suffered untold agony. 1 could not wulk. 1 could scarcely raise myself to a sitting posture. I was under medical care, but in vain. Finally I tried Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and they have restored me to my former healthy condition." This strong statement was made to reporter recent'y by Mr. Charles S. Keddey, formerly of Kignston, N.S., but now living at Port Maitland. Mr. Keddey is a carpenter by trade and is now able to work every day. He adds: "I cannot speak too highly of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, as tbey cured me after other medicine failed. While I was living at Kingston, N. S., I was seized wilh rheumatism in its most violent form. I was compelled to take to my bed and for months was an invalid. I was so weak that it was difficult for n,o li raise myself to a sitting posture. It is impossible to tell how much I suffered day and night, week in and week out. The pains were like pWc- ing swords. I had medical attendance, but it fuiled. Then I tried medicines advertised to cure rheumatism, but with the same result- money wasted. One day when hope had almost gone a friend advised me to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I told him my experience with other medicines but he assured me that these pills would cure rheumatism, so I sent for a supply. After using a few boxes I wus able to leave my bed, and from that on my restoration to health was rapid. I am now as well as ever I was, and have not had the slightest touch of rheumatism since. The change they have wrought in my case is simply miraculous and I can strongly recommend Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to any one suffering from any form of rheumatism." Rheumatism is rooted in the blood. Rubbing the aching limbs with liniments and outward remedies cannot possibly cure it. You must get the rheumatic acid out of the blood and Dr. Williams' Pink Pills is the one sure medicine to do this, because they actually make new blood. That is why these pills cure anaemia, headaches and backaches, neuralgia, indigestion and the secret ailments that make miserable the lives of so many women and growing girls.

It seems strange that so few women succeed ns photographers, for women prefer to go to their own sex to be photographed rnlluM* than to uu obviously "professional" mnu whose attentions remind them uncomfortably of those of a dentist. The trouble with the feminine photographer ls that she endeuvors to be too artistic, at the expense of the wishes of hor patrons? People get their pictures taken because they desire a likeness, nnd they do not relish nn impressionistic portrait vanishing Into the shadow. Furthermore, she disregards her subjects' individuality. She should first of all try to find out how they Imagine they look���u very different thing from their actual np- pearnnce���nnd then strive to attain that Ideal. She must somehow make a nervous, disheveled, unattractive woman a miracle of charm, and all without such gross flattery as to cause suspicion. None of the other feminine arts will come amiss In her makeup. She must know just what clothes and what alterations In the dress will work the, transformation, and she must lu a way play the hostess aud put her subject at her ease. It Is diificult nrt, but those who do succeed find thnt In every wny they nre repaid fer the trouble It took them, to reach tbelr present status. And tho best of nil ls thnt the overaesthetlc photographer will find that by suppressing her early "artistic" tendencies she has arrived at that true art which ls only expressed ln simplicity and naturalness. HOUSEHOLD HELPS. To shine boots quickly do not blacken, but rub with a piece of an orange. Let the juice dry in, then polish with a soft brush, when they will shine like a mirror.

Some Rood knitters merely unwind the skein Into a soft heap, but, this method Is only possible where there Is no fear of entanglement, as If the heap of wool be disturbed It soou gets Into a hopeless tannic. A better plan Is to wind the wool over three or four fingers of the left hand held outside the ball. These fingers shonld be gently withdrawn at frequent Intervals to change the position of the ball. Wool thus wound ls always soft and full of thread. A Fashionable Gem. Of the minor gems of which the, smartly gowned woman now makes much there Is a translucent green stone known ns nmuzoulte.

THE POISONS MUST BE REMOVED From the System���Both Kidneys and Bowels Are Restored To Action By DR. CHASE'S KIDNEY-LIVER PILLS There are three ways, and three only, by which the system can be rid of poisonous waste matter--the bowels, tbe kidneys and the skin. The bowels are named first, because on them falls the greater part of this work, and so long as they do their duty there is seldom trouble with the kidneys or skin as excretory organs. When the bowels fail, however, and become sluggish and constipated there is work thrown on the kidneys which they have no business to do, and which they cannot do (for any length of time without becoming deranged. Now there is only one medical treatment which recognizes this condition of affairs, and that is Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills. This is, so far as we know, the only kidney medicine which regulates the bowels, as well as the kidneys, and thereby removes the cause of trouble and cures the most complicated cases. You can scarcely find a ease of kidney disease which does not begin with liver and bowels, ana which could not therefore have been prevented by the use of Dr. Chase's Kidney- Liver Pills. Thousands of people are ready to testify to the superiority of Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills as a cure for kidney troubles. The reason of their efficiency is found in their action on the liver and boweis, as well as the kidneys. ; Mr. K. B. Dixon, McGillivary, B.C., writes:���'I have found Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills to be exactly I what I need. Since 1897 I have been I on the construction of the Crow'B Nest Pass branch of the C.P.R., employed in all capacities and exposed to all kinds of weather. I contracted a severe cold, then pain across the , back, and owing to the hard fare ! we sometimes had to live on, the liver got sluggish and out of working I order. Dr. Chase's K-dney-Liver Pills seemed to be the very treatment I needed and they have made me well again. I also used Dr. Chase's Ointment for Eczema lust summer. It cost only sixty cents a box, but was worth $60. The cure was complete." Mr. James J. Jensen, Olds, Alta., writes,���"I have been troubled considerably with lame back, which I suppose came from derangements of the kidneys, and I have never been able to find a treatment that was so prompt aind effective in curing this ailment as Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver I Pills. At two different times in my life this preparation has entirely cured me of this trouble, and of late years I have found it unnecessary to use any medicine whatever. I feel it I iny duty to add to this statement to tbe many others which I see in recommendation of this excellent medicine." j Dr. Chnse's K*dney-L_7er Pills, one 1 pill a dose, 25 cents a box, at all dealers, or Edmanson, Bates & Co., To- i ronto. i _!*_ Light "Have you any ligut literature?" she asked.

King Edward's <<ojoum at varjous ���.ontinental resorts has been rende * ���d unpleasant by the indiscreet way n which some people have followe:" dm about, aitho *.gh disapproval ct such conduct has been made publ:*.* by the King. S'.rl this did not seeLi !,o have the de-si ied effect at Carle- bad, and a lady met with deserved punishment for acting in this way. King Edward was breakfasting with ^ir John Fisher and some friends i_. he gardens of the Savoy Hotel when t lady ostentatiously walked past the table with hor husband and waa so intent on staring at the King, as if he were a zoological curiosity, that ���ihe marched stra;ght into a tree and unbraced it, much to her own dis- ;omfort and the amusement of all .vho witnessed the incident. The unpleasantness to which the '���Cing has to submit has -been caused .y his own subjects, not by foreign- ���rs, and it is worth mentioning that it a party in Marienbad with Americans recently the King remarked that he attitude of the latter toward him vas all that could be desired. He vished their example would be copied ljy some English men and women. Buried For Six Days. A most extraordinary case of murder has occurred in the Betu district if the Central Provinces. One Damn Gaiki had a sick wife, and, tired ol ittending to her wants, took measures to get rid of her. Putting her into a cart, he drove her in the direction of i neighboring village. On the road he took her out and, while she was nearly unconscious, buried her in a 'tole which he dug. Not having the locessary implements to dig a proper grave, he covered her with leaven and stones, and returned home. Five lays afterwards a grazier, watching his cattle near the place, observed that the animals shied at something ind ran away. He went to see what "it was, and heard a noise from what ���ppcared to be a grave, above which the twigs and stones seemed to move. He was frightened and went away. Vext morning the katwar was told of 'he mysterious grave, and, calling together a few people, went in search *f it. The party soon reached the spot, and while they were talking .bout the parson buried they heard her say,."Are Ram; I am not dead." They then went near and discovered '.he still living body of Dama's wife. 3he was asked how she came to be in mch a plight, and replied that her husbnnd had buried her because she was ill. The villagers, however, did nothing to rescue the woman, but sent *!or her relations, who came and ex- 'ricated her from her premature grave. She was sent by the police t-sjios- oital for treatment, and her husband was searched for and arrested. The woman lived for thirteen days after* wards. How she lived without food or water for five or six days, half buried beneath sand, leaves, and .tones, is a mystery. Read Wrong Service. Rev. J. H. Taylor, a vicar of a .Huron at Isle Abbotts, County of Somerset, England, astonished a con pie who had conn to him to be married by reading the funeral and baptism rituals. The opening words of the clergyman were indistinct, but when he read: "I commit theBe people to thp ground," etc., Arthur Bart, the groom, imazed. began expostulating with the minister, whilp the bride wept. The clergyman insisted on resuming the service, and this time he be- ���jan with: "I baptize theBe people with water." The wedding party then made him .caist. and some of the members rode '.hrough the countryside looking for ino'her minister. They eventually 'ound one, who solemnized the mar- ���inr/p after two hours delay,, under which period the friends of the bride had their hands full trying to console her.

In the wee sma' hours astronomers, amateur and otherwise, are pointing heir telescopes to the heavens and ���tudyin? Darnell's comet, which recently made it*** appearance. The 'comet rises at about half-past two in he morning and remains visible un- '���1 dawn ft has the appearance to the umided sight of a faint, not well- Ipfined star, of about the third or fourth magnitude, but, with the aid of ���'. field glass, opera glass or small '��lescop>, it is possible to see the tometary nature of tlie object, with ts stT-like head and long sweeping 'ail. The comet may not be visible ifter the present month, as it is ap- oronching the sun. which it will circle *n September, pfter which it may only bo visible to oh-ervers south of the equator. A�� Sei��p At St. Catharines. Mr. J. Millpr Ban*, of St. Catharines. Ont.. writes, st a recent date, as follows: "Some interesting views of 'he new compt were obtained here this "orning, between 3 and 4 o'clock. Thc comet was best spen nbout 3.45, ��� t which time its attitude above tin* 'astern hnmon waa nearly fifteen decrees. Its hp��d was rather brighter 'han an avrnrjc star of the third inaenihidi' The tail could be traced with certainty for a distance of about ten degrees, from thp head, and there were glimpses of a faintpr extension��� ���iparly in the direction of the bright *tnr, Aldobaran. As observed with a Inld glass. th_ nucleus was almost itellar in appearance, the outlines of the comet and tail being well-defined, for an object of this class. The comet was located in thp northern region of Orion, near the line which separates thnt constell-tion from Tauvus. "This is the brightest comet which has visited our system in recent years. It has already attracted much notice, and its further progress will doubtless b�� watched wth keen interest*���-especially at the chief observatories of Europe and America, where improved photographic and spectro- graphic methods are now available for the study of those wonderful bodies."

Result of Crusade for Their Protection ���Battues of Sparrows and Finches. The-protection of birds in England has reached such a stage that they have become a nuisance, and now it is not unlikely that a systematic war will be wag3d on them. The complaint is not of the game birds, which pay in Bport and in the market. It is the little feathered creatures that are bothering the farmers and gardeners. Of course the sparrows are the worst. They have grown to millions in the southern part of England, and the Kentish farmers have had to organize battues to reduce their numbers, as they were devouring seed und grain, and destroying fruit to a ruinous extent. Tens oi thousands of them have been shot or caught with birdlime. In Hertfordshire, just north of London, the bullfinches are the worst offenders, swarms of them darken the air and settle down on the fields and in orchards. The statement made is that they absolutely denude the trees of fruit. Each apple or pear has only a little peck taken from it, but it is thrown to the ground and rendered totally unmarketable. The farmers and fruit raisers here talk of organizing formal hunts, to thin out the flocks of birds. Starlings have also become extremely numerous, and are badly in" need of slaughter, the country people say. The pigeons are the only birds constantly shot all the year around in England, and in spite of this, their member never se,?ms to diminish. In one farm outside of London the proprietor reports that he shot 340 pigeons in a single day. Fanners and gardeners and fruitgrowers are proposing to memorialize the Government for the establishment of a scientific system to combat the increase in sparrows, finches, starlings, crows and pigeons in the interest ol husbandry and horticulture. Only Four Words. A minister was delivering an eloquent sermon to his flock at a small church in a village on the sea coaBt. In the middle of the sermon great excitement was caused by someone bringing the news that the drift from a large wreck was coming in. The c-mgreeation rose at once, and bsgan hurriedly to leave the church to get their share of the spoil. The minister, distressed to see his" congregation hankering so much after the things of this world, to the neglect of the higher things he had to offer, implored them, with great fervor, to stay and listen to him, as he only had four more words to say. Touched by his great earnestness, thev waited while ho came down from the' pulpit. He walked to the door, and, stunning oidside qnietly, said: "Let's all st^rt f-ir?" and ran for all he was worth.-Sunday Circle. An Odd Old English Law. There is a law an the statute books of England designed for the protection of the persecuted male sex which no man has ever had the courage to invoke. It was pissed during the reign of Queen Elizabeth when Parliament solemnly enacted that "nny woman who, from that date, would deceive or cajole into matrimony any of the subjects of Her Majesty by the use of false hair or any other thing false in connection with her body or by the use of paints or cosmetics would be ounished aa for fraud and deceit, with intent to cause harm." Witch Doctors. A curious jase of "witch-doctoring" occurred recently near Vryheid, in Natal. A boy belonging to Chief Kembi's tribe returned to his kraal from Johannesburg sick, and Man- ousi TJhlongdwa, a learned Kaffir "doctor," diagnosed his ailment as madness. A hole was dug in the clay, deep enough to cover the patient to his shoulders, and bundles of wood were put into the hole and set alight. After tho wood had burned for on hour water was thrown on the fire, causing clouds of steam. The patient was placed in the midst of this heated furnace, and carefully covered with a cowhide. One witness said the steam escaping through an op?ning ol the skin, severely burned him on the arms and shoulders; so that the state of the unfortunate patient was obvious. The "dofttor" said they could take the man out when he became unconscious, but they found him dead. Four months later native gossip carried the. story to the authorities, who exhumed the bo'ly and arrested the "dootor," whr *. now serving' It* months' hard l.iL'**r, For Strains ���of Back ���of Shoulder ���of Stifle ���of Hough ���of Whirlebone ���of Knee ���of Fetlock ���of Pastern Swelling and all Lameness in Horses use Fellows* Leaning's Essence Two or three teaspoon- fuls in a little Rum or Brandy, cures Sprains, Bruises and Lameness in 24 hours���takfl out all the soreness���and puts horses "on their feet again." 50c. a bottle.

Chief Terence V Powderly replied that tights were outside the sphere of his official influence.���Pittsburg Trader. Good Because It Doe*. Good The common ailments, while few, are liable to arise at any time. The best-kept horses, and those receiving the least care, are alike liable to the ordinary troubles, as spavins, ringbone, splint, curb, lameness, cuts and bruises. It is well for horseowners that* these diseases all yield to the same remedy. This dependable remedy which is very inexpensive is Kendall's Spavin Cure: Even the most stubborn cases, which veterinaries have failed to relievp, yield to Kendall's Spavin Cure. In the thirty years in which this reliable remedy has been used by farmers, stockmen, liverymen, nnd in private and racing stables, it has given complete satisfaction. Certainly those who own horses are not consulting their own best interests il they do not keep a bottle of Kendall's Spavin Cure in the barn. Dr. -B. J.

HAVE NO MORE EPIDEMICS. Vill be Abolished Within Fifty Years Says Scientist. The abolition of consumption and ail epidemics within fifty years, is the jiomise made by a well known scientist. Prof. E. P.ay Lankester. The wiping out of all epidemics��� '.hink what it would mean! In the .fourteenth century 25,000,000 peraons lied in Europe in the Black Death ipidemic. The great plague in London in 1_64 carried off 63,596 persons out of a population of 460,000, and the mortality probably would have been at least twice as great if one-third of the population had not fled to escape the pestilence In 1656 the plague carried off 300.000 persons in fiva months in Naples and vicinity, passing the following year to Rome, where 14,000 died, and to Genoa, where there were 60,000 deaths. Great progress has b*>en made since thon in sanitary science, and visitations of the plagut now are rare. But the death-roll of smallpox, cholera, bubonic plague, yellow fever, diphtheria, and other epidemics, is an appalling proof of man's ignorance of sanitary laws. The weekly mortality statements issued by the Chicago department of health show consumption and pneu*. monia almost in variably at the head of the lists as the causes of the greatest nivmbir of deaths, A movement of practically national extent has beeu started to check the ravages of consumption, sometimes called the "white plague." Special hospitals and open air camps have been established for the treatment of consumptives, and the results obtained thus fnr have been encouraging. One of the most startling theories advanced by Prof. I.anltoster is that disonse is a product of civilization. Furthermore he points out that the only wild animals which become diseased are those which come in contact with domesticated animals. The savages before they came in contact with civilized men, were robust and stroi'C. without disease, but vit.h the coini"*? of missionaries and 'raders came the diseases of civilization, which are rapidly wiping out the savage peoples. He cites, for example, the measles, a comparatively harmless disease among civilized races, which was introduced by Europeans with deadly results among the natives of the South Sea Islands. Prof. Lankester is of the opinion that the causes and cures of all germ diseases and epidemics can be discovered within fifty years if sufficient support and eneburagement are given lo scientific men who are giving their whole talents and energies to investigations which promise to make mankind practically immune to such diseases. He tells of examining in the Pasteur Institute in Paris in 1905, the minute spiral thread discovered in that,_year by Frit���. Schaudin, and call- ���-Sd by him spirochaeta pallida, since altered to spironema pallidum. This organism has b"en shown to be the cause of "the most terrible and widely spread of human diseases, destroying the health and strength of those whom it does not kill, and damaging the lives of their children, so that it has been said that thia malady and the use of alcohol as a beverage together, nre responsible for more than half the diseajre and early death ef the mature population of Europe."

He was put to the excruciating torture of the thumbkins, or thumbscrews, which he endured heroically, without confessing or implicating others. After Carstairs became the private adviser of William he was presented with the instrument by which he had been tortured. The King, wishing to see the measure of fortitude necessary to endure the terrible torture without making a confession of some sort, placed his thumbs in the inach ine and told Carstairs to turn the screw. He turned slowly and cautiously. "It is unpleasant," said King William, "yet it might be endured. You are trifling With me. Turn the screw so that I may really feel pain similar to that you felt." Carstairs turned the screw sharply The King cried out, and when released said that under suoh pain he would h"ve confessed to anything, true or false.
