Jenkin gave a birthday party at her residence, Benedum Villa, Silverton, on Monday last, the occasion beii g the sixth birthday of her little daughter, Miss Annie May Jenkin. Cordial invitations were sent to the school children and liy three o'clock a troop of neatly dressed and bright looking children sat down to a bountiful spread and daintily served repast. Alter ample justice had been done to the good things provided by the kindly and genial hostess, the children betook themselves to the lawn, where tliey were photographed in a group and afterwards indulged in swings and other games until the shades of dewy eve began to fall, when all bent tlieir steps homeward, well pleased with tlie alternoon's outing. The writer wishes "Many Happy Returns of lhe day."

What has Fir Wilfrid Laurier done to Canada to justify him in so belittling the country as it was thirty years after the Union? What claim hns he to the ri_,ht to brush out of history such leaders as Sir John A. Macdonald, Sir George Cartier, and the other statesmen of that day? Canada has followed a natural course of de- velopmeut since 1896 as it did before. Its trade has developed like the trade nf ether countries. It is decreasing this yenr n ore rapidly than it grew, and falling faster than the trade of the United States or of Great Brilain. Between 1896 and 1906 Canadian trade increased 148 per cent. The exports of Mexico and of the Argentine grew fur more rapidly in that decade than the exports of Canada, and tbey are holding their own better than tbat of Canada. manufacturer, and it was necessary to conciliate him. So the day after his nomination, the Globe devoted a leading article to the woolen industry, praising the Lanark condidate as a mode! of noble unselfishness, and promising that since thc woolen industry eqnired relief, tlie Liberal party would give it. The other case is that of a Government organ at Ottawa which attacked Mr. Foster for speaking favorably of the Frince Edward Island tunnel, declaring that the work would cost $160,000,000 and was the worst kind of wild cal scheme. This mado trouble in Prince E J ward Island, and the Free Press was seen, with the result that in less than a week it published another article, stating that the first one was not to be taken seriously, and that the only hope for the Prince Edward Island tunnel was from the Liberal Government.

Sir Wilir d Laurier held his at Sorel, a stronghold of his own party, where there are many hundred government employees. Mr. Borden disenssed and supported the Conservative platform, and dealt forcibly witb the government record. Sir Wilfuid Laurier talked about himself, boasted that his government had done great things to make Canada conspicuous, but kept clear ot details. Tbe Premier has already persuaded himself that ho is not only the greatest Canadian statesman, but the first and only one. He represents him self as the creator of Canada and only asks One more term to finish the job. To show how inflated the Premier has become one has only to cite his statement at Sorel, that Canada is now the third commercial country in the world, and the ailiiiiiation of all nations, whereas "in 1896 the position of Canada was that of an insignificant colony, forgotten by France, tcarcely known by England, completely unknown by Eu- Sir Wilfrid's childish vanity works two way_.

He and his friends were timid, sceptical, and unpatriotic, believing and declaring it impossible to keep this country independent of the United States, jealous of every suggestion ot closer union with the Empire, ridiculing the loyal and hopeful aspirations of patriotic Canadians, and doing all in their power to make them despair of tlieir country. It is no wonder looking back at tbe Canada of his own former conceptions, Sir* Wilfrid should now picture it as miserable, pitiable, contenip.ib.e colony. But the real Canada twelve years ago was very much what Canada is to-day in status and influence, and a vory much better Canada, in the reputation of her public men, and in tbe record of her administration. Her public men had cut a much better figure in diplomacy than the present ministers. Her financial credit was higher and financial obligations less. Two amusing episodes bave occurred in the party press. Just before the close of Parliament the woolen manufacturers whose industry is in a bad way, asked for tariff relief. The Toronto Globe, chief organ of the Government party, attacked the manufacturers for their demands, and praised Laurier for rejecting them. But the Government candidate in North Lanark is a woolen 'i$>i Guarding vs. Growing. Leas Costly to Protect Forests Than Grow New Ones. "Prevention is better than cure." A new application of the old saying may be made in considering forestry policy In this case the saying may be expanded into something like the following: "It is better to prevent forest fires (anil so save many thousand dollars' worth of valuable timber) than to try to remedy the evil by planting tieee to fill tin places of those destroyed." Five dollars per acre is the minimum price given by forestry experts for forest tree planting; and the price raiij;e from this up to $10 per acre and more. When the lower figure is taken as tin basis of calculation, the planting of one square mile will cost .3,200; to plant ten square miles will require $32,000, and the planting up of a township six miles square (area, thirty-six square miles) will require the expenditure of $115,200. Such figures are *ept to make one stop and think before advocating extensive planting. The cost to tlie Dominion Government of patrolling tne Railway Belt in British Columbia during the last fiscal year (April 1st, 1907, to March 31st, 1008) amounted to $14,111,64. The area of the Railway Belt is a little over ten million acres. The cost, then, of patrolling this tract wns less tban 1 1-2 mills per acre, or about 90 cents per square mile. No fire of any magnitude was reported during the year. The railway belt is exceptionally well guarded, but even with the cost several times what it is, the expense is well worth while, considering the value ot the mature timber and young growth thus saved.

THE SLOCAN'S EXHIBIT AT NELSON FAIR. (By J. C. HARRIS). For the benefit of those who take down tbe District Exhibit from the S!o- cau in tlie years to come, it will be as well to give an account of our experience in getting the exhibit to tho Fair ground and setting up our display. The exhibit was shipped as freight, ns it was felt that it would prove cheaper and equally as sat:sfactory as to express it and it turned out, owing to the kindness and consideration of the C. P. R. officials, we were able to get it to the fair ground in good time. At Slocan City we made sure tbere was a way car going tbat day, also that our exhibit was placed on board After dinner Tom Avison nnd I set forth to forage around for further specimens; we made our way to Mr. Campbell's gardens and met with great success, getting real greengage plums (not Imperial gage), also Idaho pears, a round winter variety, also two or three sorts of apples that I hope to find out the names uf and report next week. Mr. Campbell bas some capital fruit, his "Wealthy" apples were especially fine, and there was lees scab than in any other irchard I have seen. Mr. R. Kirk- wood's garden contributed a further variety (name unknown) and Mr. Rae another. We arrived in Nelson ou time, but late, for the Nelson people live one hour ahead of ordinary mortals. Mr. J Bradshaw came to our assistance and introduced us in tlie right quarters and ive found another very obliging C. P. R. man who stretched a point and allowed us to unload our exhibit ou tbe platform. Tom hailed an express and in rive minutes we were sitting on top ot our boxes, driving in triumph to the Fair. We carried our exhibit to tbe stall assigned to us and then returned to carry in the squash. Imagine tbe sensation as we lifted it out of the crates amidst the cheers of thc numerous small boys and with Tom Avison blushing like a bridegroom, we bore it to its place. It bas no competitors; the threatened competition had vanished, Mr. Gould was wandering around Nelson waiting for the boat to go back to Fernie. We commandeered bis services and could not have found a belter man. Tom Avison and myself and all who take interest in our exhibit have great reason to be tbanful to him. After supper we three returned to the Exhibition, where we found great bustle and a crowd of exhibitors setting things to rights. Tbe management were most courteous under very trying circumstances, with numbers of distracted exhibitors applying for plates, tacks, information, etc. Mr. Starkey was very helpful; they say it is possible to find the wrong side of him, but there is bo much of the right side that I personally, have never discovered the wrong. There are a few things which I would suggest that our exhibitois lake in future, viz,: a clew hammer, a tack hammer, string, wire, scissors, and material to decorate tne stall. The management provide a ingubr Shooting ident. Prominent New Denver Citizen Seriously Wounded. Herbert. Cue, secretary of the Town Improvement Society, was on Sunday last ihe victim of a most extraordinary shooting mishap. Along with Richard Blueir.enauer lie bad journeyed up Goat mountain for thc purpose of bunting goat. At about half-past three a grouse was sighted at which Bluemenaner fired from a distance of about fifteen feet, and the bullet, which was a 803, after hitting the bird, struck a rock and glancing off at almost right angles, struck Cue iu the left side, wounding him severely. Bluemenaner, atter rendering all the help he cou'd, hurried down the trail for assistance, and arrived at Nelson's ranch in an almost exhausted condition and informed them of the unfortunate occurrence. From thero word waa brnrfght into town, and a party of men, with stretcher and other appliancs, quickly Bet out for ths scene ot the accident and to convey the wounded man down to the hospital. Owing ta darkness having set in and the dangerous nature of the trailj this proved a very difficult undertaking, mid not until nearly 2 a.m. Monday morning was that institution reached. On examination by Dr. Brouse it was found that the bullet had penetrated the left side and passed through the kidneys, but it was impossible at that time to locate where it had lodged. An operation has been deemed inadvisable at the present as there appears to be no danger of serious complications arising, as the bullet is Baid to have been a steel one and therefore not poisonous. The latest reports are to the effect ttat Cue ie progressing very favourably. r ** Slocan Fruit Lands Beet EJet-rliest Oib.��ei.p>��_3t We have them in large and small blocks, in every portion of the district, at all prices* Write me for particulars* Spokane Interstate Fair.

It is no small job to transform the bare rough stall into a respectable and worthy stand to set forth the fruit; but we finally succeeded and then went to work to unpack. We felt at first that our stall would look mean and tho whole display too small; but as box alter box was opened up, our spirits rose, and when Ed. Shannon's "Woolf River" apples shone forth we felt that the Slocan was well represented. Mr. Cockle, ot Kas'.o, admired our fruit and brought several other to examine the big yellow egg plums from Mr. Fisher's garden. The other stalls were adorned with boughs of crab apples, plums, sheaves of Timothy, wheat, oats, etc., and another year wc would do well to provide such things; but I did not see any card, announcing where an exhibit came from, to equal the beautiful one that Miss Ada McDougall designed for oui* stall.

A dainty white ensign drooped over heist ern, and in her bows the sun's light was caught by a heavy brass carro- nade. The captain brought his glass to bear upon them aud whistled; then lie glanced up at the clouds once more. "Thirty men," said he, "and they go three puces to our two. You, sir, take your blue coat off this deck or you'll bring trouble upou us. The Lord will look after his own If they'll only keep from foolishness. Get these hatches olT, Tomlinson. So! Where's Jim Sturt nnd Hiram Jefferson? Let them stand by to clap tliem on again when I whistle. Starboard; starboard! Keep her as full as she'll draw. Now, Amos, and you, Tomlinson, come here until I have a word with you." The three stood in consultation upon the poop, glancing back nt their pursuer. There could be no doubt that the wind was freshening. It blew briskly In their faces as they looked back, but it was not steady yet, and the boat was rapidly overhauling them. Already tliey could see the faces of the marines who sat In the stern and the ���gleam of the lighted linstock which the gunner held In his hand. "Hola!" cried an officer In excellent English. "Lay her to or we Are!" "Who are you, and what do you want?" shouted Ephrnlm Savage In a voice that might have been heard from the bank. "We come In the king's name, and wo want a party of Huguenots from Paris who came on board of your vessel at Rouen." "Brace bnck the foreyard and lay her to!" shouted the captain. "Drop a ladder over the side there and look smart. So! Now we are ready for them." Tlie yard was swung round, nnd the vessel lay quietly rising nnd falling on tlie wnves. The boat dashed alongside, ber brass cannon trained upon the brlg- iintine, and her squad of marines with tlieir Angers upon their triggers ready to open fire. Tliey grinned nud shrugged their shoulders when they saw that tlieir solo opponents were three unarmed men upon the poop. The officer was on deck In nn instant, with his drawn sword In liis band. "/ think that you are best down below." -CtJme tip, two or you," he cried. "You stand here at the head of the lad- dor, sergeant. Throw up a rope, and you can fix It to this stanchion. Keep awake down there and be all ready to lire. You come with me, Corporal Le- nioine. Who is captain of this ship?" "I am, sir," said Ephralm Savage submissively. "You have three Huguenots aboard." "Tut, tut. Huguenots, nre they? I thought they were very anxious to got nway, but ns long as they paid tlieir passage it was no business of mine. An old man, his young daughter and a young fellow about your age in some sort of livery." "In uniform, sir���the uniform of the king's guard. Those are the folk I have come for." "And you wish to tako them back?" "Most certainly." "The old man Is tn his bunk asleep, the maid is In a cabin below, and tht other is sleeping down the hold." "Sleeping, you say? We. had best surprise him." "But think you that you dare do It alone? He has no nnns, It Is true, but he is a well grown young fellow. Will you not have twenty men up from the boat?" i Some such thought hnd passed through lhe officer's head, but tho captain's remark put him upon his mettle. ' "Come with me, corporal," said he. "Down this ladder, you say?" ! "Yes, down the ladder and straight on. He lies between those two cloth biles." Ephrnlm Savage looked up with a smile playing nbout the corners of his grim mouth. The wind was whistling uow in the rigging, and the stays of the masts were humming like two harp strings. Amos Green lounged beside the French sergennt who guarded the end of the rope ladder, while Tomlinson, the mate, stood with a bucket of water In his hnnd exchanging remarks in very bad French with the crew of the boat beneath hlm. The officer made his way slowly down the ladder wliich led into the hold. The corporal followed him, nnd had his chest level with the deck when the other had reached the bottom. II muy hnve been something lu Ephraiin Savage's face or it may have been thc gloom around him which startled the young Frenchman, "Up again, corporal!" he shouted. "1 think tbat you nre best at the top." "And L thiuk that vou.nre best down oelow, my friend," said tbe "Puritan, who gathered the officer's meaning from his gesture. Putting the sole of his boot against the man's chest, he gave a shove which sent both him and the ladder crashing down on to the officer beneath him. As he did so he blew his whistle, and in a moment th. hatch was back in its place and clamped down on each side with iron bars. The sergeant had swung round at the sound of the crash, but Amos Green, who had waited for the movement, throw his arms round him and hurled him overboard into the sea. At the same instant the connecting rope was severed, tlie foreyard creaked back into position once more and the bucketful of salt water soused dowu over the gunner and his gun, putting out his linstock and wetting his priming. A shower of balls from the marines piped through tho air or rapped up against the planks, but the boat was tossing and jerking ln thc short, choppy waves, and to aim was impossible. In vain the men tugged and strained nt tlieir oars, while the gunner worked like a maniac to relight bis linstock and to replace bis priming. Tlio boat had lost Its weigh, while the brigantine was flying along now with every sail bulging and swelling to bursting point. Crack! went the carronade at last, and five little slits In the mainsail showed that her charge of grape had flown high. Half an hour afterward a littlo dark dot upon the horizon with- a gulden speck at one cud of it was all that could be seen of tlie Hontleui* guard boat. The smoke Of Havre lay like a little cloud upon tho northern horizon, and Captain Ephralm Savage paced his deck with his face as grim as ever, but with a dancing light in his gray eyes. CHAPTER XVII. FOR two days the Golden Rod lay becalmed close to Cape la Hague, with the Breton coast extending along the whole of the southern horizon. On the third morning, however, came a sharp breeze, nnd they drew rapidly away from lnnd until It was but a vague, dim line whicli blended wilh the cloud bonks. "I am frightened about my father, Amory," said Adele as thoy stood together by the shrouds and looked back at the dim cloud upon tho horizon which marked the position of that France which they were never to see ngain. "What do you mean, Adele? My uncle is hale and hearty, and ho frill accustom himself to this new life." "If It only could bo so! But I fear, I fear that he ls over old for such a change. He snys not a word of complaint, but I read upon his face that lie ls stricken to the heart." De Catinat was about to suggest that the voyage might restore the merchant's health, when Adele gnve a cry of surprise and pointed out over the port quarter. "Look!" she cried. "There is something floating upon the sea. I saw It upou the crest of a wave." He looked in the direction In whicli Ihe pointed, but It wus so far from _im that he could make nothing of it, hut sharper eyes than liis had caught a glance of it. Amos Green had seen the girl point. "Captain Ephralm," said he, "there's a boat on the starboard quarter." The New England seaman whipped up his glass. "Aye, It's a boat," said he, "but nn empty one. Maybe It's been washed off from some ship or gone adrift from shore. I'ut her hard down, Mr. Tomlinson, for it Jus. so happens that I am in need of a boat at present." Half a minute later tho Golden Rod had swung round nnd was running swiftly down toward the black spot whicli still bobbed and danced upon the waves. As they neared her they could see that something was projecting over her side. "It's a man's head!" cried- Amos Green. But Epliraim's grim face grew grim mer. "It's n man's foot," said he. "I mink that you had best take the gal *ielow to the cabin." Amid a solemn hush they ran alongside this lonely craft wliich hung out so sinister a signal. She was n little thirteen foot cockleshell, very broad for her length and so flat in the bottom that she had been meant evidently for river or lake work. Huddled together beneath the seuts were three folk, a nan in the dress of i respectable artisan, a woman of the same class and a little child about a year old. The boat was half full of water, and the woman and child were ���stretched with their faces dowuward, the fair curls of the Infant and the dark locks of the mother washing to nnd fro like water weeds upon the surface. The mnn lay with a slate colored face, his chin cocking up toward the sky, his eyes turned upward lo tlie whites and liis mouth wide open, -bowing a leathern crinkled tongue like a rotting leaf. In the bows, all huddled In n heap and with a single paddle still grasped in his baud, there crouched a very small man clad lu black, nn open book lying across his face and one stiff leg jutting upward, with the heel of the foot resting between the rowlocks. A boat had been lowered by the Golden Roil, and the unfortunates wero loon conveyed upon deck. No particle iif either food or drink wns to be found ir anything save the single paddle and ho* open Bible, which lay acroos the ���anall man's face. Man, woman and child had all been dead a dny at the reast, and so, with the short prayers iscd upon the seas, tliey were burled rom tbe vessel's side. The small man had at flrst seemed nlso to be lifeless, _ut Amos had detected some slight 'hitter of his heart, and the faintest haze was left upon the watch glnss which was held beforo his mouth. Wrapped In a dry blanket, he was laid beside the mast, and the mate forced a few drops of rum every few minutes between his lips until the little speck of life which still lingered ln hlm might bo fanned to a flame. Meanwhile Ephralm Savage hnd ordered up the two prisoners whom he had entrapped at Houfleur. "Very sorry, captain," said the seaman, "but either you hnd to come with us, d'ye see, or we had to stay frith you. They're waiting for me over at Boston, nud so lu truth I couldn't tarry. Whicli would you prefer, to go on jvjtl) us lo America or to go back to France?** "Back to France, if I can find my way, if ouly to have a word with that fool of a gunner." "Well, we emptied a bucketful of water over his linstock aud priming, d'ye see, so maybe he did all he could. But there's France, where that thickening is, over yonder." "I see it; I see it! Ah, if my feet were ouly upou it once more!" "There is a boat beside us, and you may take it." "My God, what happiness! Corporal Lemoine, the boat! Let us push off at ouco."

Hiram Jefferson, bring two oars aft. It's a long pull witli the wind in your teeth, but you'll be there by tomorrow night, and the weather Is set fair." The two Frenchmen were soon provided with all that they were likely to require and pushed off with a waving of hats and a shouting of "Bon voyage!" Tho yard was swung round again, and the Golden Rod turned her bowsprit for the west. But while these things had been done the senseless man beneath the mast had twitched his eyelids, had drawn a little gasping breath and then finally had opened his eyes. Old Catinat had come upon deck, and nt the sight of the man and of his dross he had run forward and had raised his head reverently. "Ho Is ono of tlie faithful," ho cried. "He is one of our pastors. Ah! Now indeed n blessing will be upon our journey!" But the man smiled gently nnd shook his head. "I fear that I may not come Kneeling hand In hand before the dying pastor. this journey with you," snid he, "for tho Lord has called me upon a farther journey of my own. I have had my summons, nnd I am rendy. I am Indeed the pastor of the temple at Isigny. and when we heard the orders of the wicked king I and two of the faithful, with their little one, put forth in the hope thnt we might come to England.

"It's time," said Ephrnlm Savage grimly. Then the whisperers went to De Catinat. He Sprang in the air, and his eyes shone with delight. And then they went down to Adele ln her cabin, and she started and blushed nnd turned her sweet face away and patted her hair with her hands as woman will when a sudden call is made upon her. And so, since haste was needful and since even there upon the lonely sea there was one coming who might at nny moment snap their purpose, they found themselves In a few minutes���this gnl- lant man and this pure woman���kneeling hand In hand before tho dying pastor, who raised his thin arm feebly in benediction ns he muttered the words which should make them forever one.

The above statement is the substance of a hypothetical proposition originated by Chief Deputy Sheriff Charles refers, who finds what he considers striking parallelisms in the lives nnd records of these two persons.

This frnens elected Adnms. The campaign of 1S28 rn consequence wns somewhat demoralized, nnd In 1S31 the Republicans followed the example the anti-Masonic party had set the yenr before nnd met In convention In Baltimore to nominate Henry Clay. The Democrats held their first nntlonal convention In the snme city the following year, nominating Martin Vnn Buren for vice president Tho dominating figure of the pnrty, Andrew Jackson, needed no Indorsement of his candidacy for the presidency. Tho Democrats in 1S35 nnd 1840 nominated Van Buren for the presidency In Baltimore, nnd the Whigs nominated Clay In the same place In 1844, when the Democrats named Folk. In 1835 Romulus M. Saunders Intro duced the two-thirds rule to the Democratic convention, and It wns adopted. The customs Installed nt these earlier conventions which succeeded the tyranny of the caucus chamber have been continued and added to from time to time, and the conventions today nre merely the descendants of those thnt nominated Clay nnd Van Buren.��� Charles Wadsworth Camp in Metropolitan Magazine.

Automatic Coin Assorter. A recent issue of an Austrian journal gives an account of an automatic money assorter that will assort metal coins which have been thrown together regardless of their denominations, placing ench denomination In a separate basket. The various coins nre thrown indiscriminately Into a funnel at the top of the machine, nnd from the funnel they slide downward, alighting on a spiral track. This track has a protecting edge or raised border containing silts corresponding to the various sizes of the coins. As the coins of various denominations glide downward on to the track through some peculiar mechanism of the machine they pass through the slits corresponding to their various sizes, entering their respective baskets at the bottom of the machine.

To Digest the Food Bile in the intestines is as important to disgestion as are the gastric juices in the stomach and bile is only supplied when the liver is in active condition. The serious and chronic forms of indigestion are cured by Dr. A. W. Chase's Kidney and Liver Pills because of their influence on the liver, causing a good flow of bile to aid digestion and keep the bowels regular, thereby preventing fermentation of the food, the formation of gas and all the disi _reeable symptoms of indigestion. Long standing cases of chronic indigestion yield to Dr. A.W. Chase's Kidney and Liver Pills after all else has failed. Here's the proof. "I was for many years troubled witb indigestion and headache and derived no benefit from 1..9 many remedies I used.

One of the strangest of nil the png- eants which are to be seen In Jerusalem Is tbe aniiiin! march of tbe Mo- hamiiieilans to the tomb of Moses. To iheui, as well as to Christians aud Jews. Moses Is a prophet of the highest honor. Hut. rejecting the traditions of the Hebrews, they refuse to believe thnt he wns buried lu n valley In the land of Moab, as Is described in the lust chapter of Deuteronomy, lustead they assert Hint he wus buried where he breathed his last, upon the summit of Mount Nebo. Therefore ench year nt the time of the Greek Easter the faithful gather liy thousands In the early morning before the site of lhe temple of Solomou lu perfect silence waiting fc. daybreak. Later the strange scene of quiet is entirely transformed, fanatics dancing and prencliing, hordes of dervishes whirling about In mysterious "sacred" 'lances and hundreds of exhorters rousing the enthusiasm of their fellows. The scene Is gaudy with hundreds of red and green banners, nnd the only semblance of order Is In the semiregu- lar' organizations of marchers. At last the procession forms, with the bnuners borne ahead, au Inian hearing the yntnghan of the prophet��� a short, straight edged sword used by the armies of Mohammed���and nfter them more dancers nud marchers. A large part of the population of Jerusalem gathers about lhe gate, out of which the procession moves townrd the Mount of Olives, but few besides the faithful endeavor to obtain a place in the ranks of marchers, since death has often been the penalty of nn at* tempt by n non-Mohnnimedan to make this march to "Nebl-Mouca," the "tomb of Moses." Traders of many kinds Invade the camp, for the marchers remain at the mosque five dnys, nnd nil their supplies must be bought from the wandering merchants, who mnke n business of looking after their needs. After the first excitement fanaticism yields to good humor, and games and banter fill the time for those who have paid their duties at the tomb. The mosque on Nebo Is one of the most sacred of Mohammedan shrines and one of the most difficult for a Christian to approach.

A man of St. Joseph, Mo., relates n itorjvln connection with a spiritualistic meeting once held in that town. A man named Daniel Miller, who was some six feet seven Inches in height, had died recently. The spirit of Dnnlel wns called for by some one nt the seance mentioned. When It hnd appeared nnd announced Its readiness to reply to nny question, some one nsked: "Are you in heaven?" "Yes." cnme from the shade of Daniel. "Aro you an angel, Dan?" "Yes." At this juncture the questioner paused, having apparently exhausted his fund of questions. But, to the amusement of nil, he suddenly ndded, "And what do you measure'from tip to tip, Dan?" Took Kindly to the Water. They tell this story of the experience of two Maine boys In trying to catch a woodchuck: They hnd tried quite a number of times to capture the animal, but unsuccessfully. At last they decided to drown hlm out; so, procuring four palls, each took two, and they carried water for two solid hours and poured It into the hole In tho ground ln which the said chuck had taken up his abode.

I An Interrsting Man Almost as Versatile ti the Kaiser. A short, stout man, who wears a gray frock co*_.t when visiting, likes afternoon lea, plays a remarkabiy good game of bridge, does not hesitate to sit down at the piano and sing a song tor the entertainment of a party, and after dinner has been known to speed tbe parting friend with a long and animated conversation on the doorstep- -this is one side of the character of Habib���Ullah Khan, ruler of tlie Afghans, Amir of Kabul, seeker after God's health and lamp of the congregation ami the faith. He did all these things when visiting India-in the early part of last year, says n writer in The London Daily Mail. In some minds he created the impression thnt he was the Asiatic counterpart of tin* German Emperor. lie told various people whom he met thut. he was tlie best smith in Afghanistan, the best carpenter, the best drill sergeant. Then be claimed to be able to preneh a better sermon than any mullah, and as a matter of fact led 70fUl0fl people in prayer at Delhi��� surely the Jargost prayer meeting on record. He speaks seven or ei_f.it languages; he plays cricket; he has acquired a liking for the motor car and he sec ins to think very highly of his own powers as a doctor. Then, too, he apparently knows how to enjoy himself at a race meeting, and when ho makes a bet, he pays on the spot if lie loses, When he was in India an attendant stalked solemnly behind him, carrying a vast enshbox full of money, from which disbursements were made, when necessary. He is said to be a pood sportsman, but when he plays cricket with his attendants the Amir apparently nlways wins. It might perhaps bo risky for opponents to make n better showing. The Amir is the son of one who was a slave girl before she became one of the Queens of Afghanistan. His harem In Kabul is not so large as tbat maintained by his father. Angus Hamilton snys that when the Amir cams to the throne three wives were divorced in order to keep the spirit of the Koran law, which forbids the maintenance of more than four wives. Many slaves of prepossessing charms, we are told, are taken into the harem from time to time and added to the number of his concubines. But the queens appear to exercise a strict censorship in regard lt> the type of slave. The hapless woman who becomes a favorite nml excites the admiration of the Amir "is generally removed," One queen, it is recorded, "has killed witli her own hands three of her slaves and personally chastises her erring handmaidens, purposely di.i'ig- uring any whoso physical attractiveness might charm the Amir." The four wives of the Amir "occupy positions wliich nre graduated to n recognized senle. The first wife draws an allowance of one lakh of rupees an- nii.'ill.v* the second wife receives 80,- Ono rupees, the third wife .0,0(10 rupees, the fourth wife 20,000 rupees a yenr." One rather gnthers that the domestic life of ihe A'nir is not untroubled and that the influence of his wives is not east, on the side of peace and quietness. An Is'and of Massacres. Hayti, the West Indian island, to whicli public attention has just recently been directed, has been the scene of more massacres than any other plnce on earth. They began with the coming of Columbus and the rabble rout that followed him. In a few years its 3 000,000 of gentle, brown-skinned inhabitants had perished utterly, exterminated by fire and sword and by forced labor in tlie mines. Next the buccaneers seized the unhappy Island and wreaked vengeance or. the Spaniards. Presently cnme the French, and ior a brief space then; was some semblance of peace. But in 171)3 the negroes revolted and murdered practically all the whites. On account of tiiese atrocities, frightful reprisals took place when Pinnoe, in due course, reconquered the island. But the negroes bided their time and presently rose again under a ruffian named Dossaiimes. Tbis time they did the thing thoroughly, Not only were all the Europeans put to death, but all having any admixture of white blood in their veins suffered a like fate. In all it is computed that 5,000,000 men, women nnd children have met with violent deaths on this island of massacres since the intruding white man first set foot on its palm-fringed strand. Against the King. Many people blissfully imagine that lese majesty���that is, insulting royalty���is a crime peculiar to foreign countries and unknown in free and happy Britain Thnt, however, is where they make a mistake. j�� It is, for instance, technically a punishable offence to stick a penny stamp on a letter upside down. Doing so is to insult the King through his effigy, nnd n few centuries ngo��� supposing penny stamps to have been then invented*���might easily have landed the offender in prison on n charge nf seeking to bring ridiculi on the sovereign or to express c**** tempt fnr his authority by causing im picture to stand on its head. Also, it is a punishable offence to deface a coin of the realm bearing tlie royal image nnd then deliberately put it into circulation again. To strike the King would, according to the strict letter of thc law, render the assailant liable to tbe death penalty, no matter how trifling thc blow was in reality.���Pearson's Weekly.

THE CURATTFS AID I By MARY B. EAKET. X ���twrsa?*!^ "Jeannie! Jeannie! Come and see the new curate. I am sure he is coming in here." Jean McLeod, a tall, fair girl of twenty-two summers, hastened to her mother's side. They lived on the outskirts of the lonely village of Bothmore and any stranger who entered the village streets was sure to receive marked attention from all. Health bnd fniled tfie old clergyman who bad for the last eighteen years been in charge of the one little wooden church and ns his doctors bad insisted upon a change of air it was rumored that a young and handsome Oxford mnn was to fill the vacant place. No wonder then that Jenn came quickly nt her mother's call. How glad she wfts to feel that hero was one who would appreciate her talents und understand her moods. Jean McLeod, an only daughter and her father's pet hnd indeed been spoilt in childhood nnd as she grew older bad been sent to a city college that she might hnve every advantage nnd accomplishment wnich tend to make the so-enlled finished lndy. Thus she had gradually grown into the fixed idea, tbut the ignorant youth of Bothmore were just a little below her level and that, well, they were not learned enough to be uble to understand nnd appreciate or sympathize with her talents, her advantages and her ideas. "Why, yes, mother; he bus turned into the Inne nlready nnd you hnve your old apron on. Why don't you go and tnko it off and make yourself look a bit tidy; remember be will not be like Mr. I)e**i���he hns been reared in the city _.,ld from Oxford too! What a bore he will find the people here. We must mnke it as pleasant for him ns we can." "Well I nlways ninde old Mr. Dean nt home whether I hnd a clean apron or not. But I suppose you know best. It seems to me if we folk have to go and dress every time we see the clergyman coming, whether we bo n cooking or n washing or a churning. that it is the curate himself who will soon be a bore." So saying Mrs. McLeod went slowly up the stairs to give the required touches to her dress. Meanwhile tlie curate had reached the doof, which in answer to his light rnp, wns opened by Jean. "Pardon nie, madam, but is Mrs. McLeod at home?" This wns hardly the greeting Jenn expected, but she liked the voice, and she would make him her friend nt nil costs. So smiling sweetly she said "Yes, sir; my mother, Mrs. McLeod, is nt home nnd. will bo down in a minute. But will you please step into the parlor and wait; you are our new curate are you not? We recognized you as you cnme up the lane,���" "Yes, madam, I have that honor and am indeed pleased that my parishioners recognize mo so readily." "When you have been here as long as I have you will be glad to have an opportunity of recognizing some stranger from the outer world. You will find it very dull bore, and the people are such a bore you cannot help but feel it." "I hope not, madam, My duty [���here is not to recognize the outer world, but tlie people of this dear little parish, nnd I shnll do my utmost to fulfill that duty; as fon my [celing the people a bore, I hope not, for to my mind one has to be a bore one's self before one can feel bored by others." This wns rather more than Jean expected, and from a city-bred gentle- ninn loo; really il wns too terrible to be true. Why, he had as much as told her that she was a bore. She felt like leaving him alone and going to tell her motlier how horrid he wns; but no, she would stay but would not answer his rude remark. Although her silence wns meant to be stinging, it seemed to her he thought it golden, for he did not attempt to continue tlio conversation, but sat looking out on the lawn ns if solitude wero indeed tlie sweetest thing in'God's good earth. Mrs. McLeod was now coming down tbe stairs. She would bring him to his place before her mother entered. "Pardon, sir; my mother"���the words were hard and cold, but the curate seemed not to even hear her as he rose quickly and crossed the room to the doqr just, as ber mot her was about to enter. "Mrs. McLeod, I presume. I nm Mr. Wnltham, your new curate, and it is indeed a pleasure for me to make vour acquaintance. I trust we may become firm friends in the near future. I have made tlie acquaintance of your daughter, but I believe I have already bored her with my views." So saying, he led Mrs. McLeod to a large ensy chair, Hie very') one Jenn hnd chosen for him. "Now, Mrs. McLeod, I want your ndvice, counsel and help. I am a stranger here at present, and from you I wnnt some advice ns to the quickest way to will tho hearts nnd minds of my people, and nlso to know who needs most the stuff fo guide tliem to the light. All cannot receive care nt one and the same time, nnd, moreover, some do not need it; but I am so afraid lest through laek of knowledge I may neglect those who are so much in need of help that they cannot walk to the light alone. You can always lead the bulk of your flock, but there are some wbo nro trying so hard to follow, and yet need help in places, or tliey will at once fair back and lose their way. It is for those my heart bleeds and for those I want your aid and sympathy." "It is indeed very good of you to come to me, -Mr. Walllinin, nnd I nm sure I will help you all I can. But why hnve you not Bought this advice from Jeannie? She knows tbem one and all as well ns I, and bus been counting on being an nid to you in The Infallible Man. The most dull nnd wlsuy washy man In all the world must be he wbo never mnde a mistake. But be is double dyed when lie will make no mistake himself nnd lose sleep over the mistakes of his neighbor.��� Manchester Union. Men's Ways.

I assure you, Mr. Waltham no one has. been more overjoyed at your coming than she. Her college days were spent abroad, and it is such a tie to her now to have to live in this dull place, as she calls it. For myself, I find it a very interesting little place indeed." "I agree with you, Mrs. McLeod, and now I want you to help make it interesting for me, too. Jean may know all the people as well as you, but since sho finds it so very dull I am sure she does not feel for them as you do. If it be her desire to aid me in my work here, we will endeavor to find a way for her to do so; but now it is your help I want." Tlie very idea! A mnn she hnd only met ten minutes before, culling her Jean. And how rude he was to speak of her in such tones. Why, he had not even told her his name, or that he was pleased to meet her, or anything; and had refused her advice witli regard to the people, even before it wns proffered. And this wns the man she had planned and dreamt about���the man whom she hnd looked to, to brighten life at Bothmore. Truly life is false, indeed. She had been bitterly deceived. Sitting like one in a dream, she heard all he said to her mother, and ��� yet she did not, but when ho rose to go she knew she wns not sorry. He was at least more courteous now than on his arrival. Crossing the room, he held out his hnnd. "Miss McLeod, your mother and I have become such staunch friends. Will you not congratulate me? And, by tlie wny, 1 understand thnt you nre desirous of aiding nie also. 1 shall count on yon, and nm sure will find plenty of little errands of-mercy for willing bauds to do." "Thank you, sir. I will try to be of service to you if you so desire." "Desire! Why, my dear Miss McLeod, I insist. You see, I have that right, now. I am not only your rector, but also your mother's friend. But now I must bid you farewell. Where duty calls, one must always go*" Jean watched him go quickly down Uie lane; she was so angry with him and yet could not help admiring hiin as he swung briskly along. "Well, mother, what clo you think now of your city curate?" "Think? Why, Jean, he is just the mnn for the plnce. So brave and yet so kind and thoughtful. Why, I am sure he will aid my poor people even more than dear old Mr. Dean; and it will be so pleasant for you, too. Ho snys he intends interesting you in some enses where he is sure you will be useful, nnd where you will soon lose your present opinion of your neighbors." "Oh, indeed! He seems very confident of my services. I suppose just becnuse he conies from Oxford, he thinks wo will nil wait on our knees to do his bidding. I never had to stoop to such deeds of humility when Mr. Dean was here, nnd I do not see why he should need such a lot of nid. As for being kind nnd thoughtful, I failed to see it, if he wns. Why, be was positively rude to ine. But I do not intend to worry over it. I nm going out for a walk now, but will be buck in time to get ten, so you need not bother about that." Mrs. McLeod sighed deeply ns her daughter left the room. She loved Jean very much, but she could see she wns fast becoming so restless and discontented that the true sunny nature seldom hnd a chance of showing itself. A week later, as Jean was gathering some beautiful lilacs for her Japanese table bowls, she was surprised to hear a voice close by: "Good-., morning, Miss McLeod, will you do me a favor? Miss Lenard, the seamstress, is very ill, and I nm sure would be very gratified for a glimpse of youi- lovely flowers. No, I will not stop to be thanked for the suggestion. I nm sure she would hnve had tbem long ngo, bud you known." Without another word the curate moved quickly on, leaving Jean standing like one struck dumb. "Well, of all things! You would really think I was a child. Still I like his nerve, and I suppose I will go. I will let him see that he is not tlie only one who can care for the sick." In little less than an hour Jenn had kept her word, and with a beautiful bouquet of dowers in one band, and such a big basket of good things in the other, she, went laughingly down the street. It seemed funny to her to be doing anything useful beyond tlie home garden wall. Nevertheless she enjoyed hor errand, and as she returned home after reading most of the afternoon to the poor, sick giTl, she felt very glad indeed that she had not followed ber first impulse nnd ignored the request. As the days and weeks went quickly on, the curate seemed always to find fresh work for Jean, nnd ench request came in that peculiar half pleading nnd hnlf commanding tone. Ench request wns also always met, but in the snme haughty, condescending manner, nnd, pleasing to say, always carried out in Jean's own sunny way. Tims the dnys nnd the summer sped quickly nway. It wns the last garden party of the yenr. Rich and poor from nil over tlie villnge seemed to enjoy the simple program provided for them by the curate who had so silently won his way into the hearts of all. Jenn hnd been the busiest of nil that day. She slipped in nnd out among young nnd old nlike; a word of comfort here, a laugh and a smile there, or perhaps just a handshake: but always managing to avoid the curate. Sitting down on a low garden bench she watched the tired but happy people as they seemed to linger nround the glories of the day, dreading as it were to bid farewell to the dear old garden with its sunny nooks. So intent wns Jean upon the scene that she did not notice the approach of tlio curnte till lie laid bis hands upon her shoulder. Then.she started up, only to find herself gently but firmly held down. "Jenn, why have you avoided me nil day? I wanted you to nid mc nnd instead yon insist upon neglecting me and aiding my people. Will vou not redeem your pledge now ? I need you, Jean. Tbey nil love you, but I even more than they. Surely vou will not refuse me now?" As Jenn lay down to rest that night she could not remember whnt ber answer bad been, but she knew that she was vory, very happy, and that Mr. Walthnm wns the best curate sbe hnd ever known or, for that matter, ever wished to know.

She evidently had forgotten she wns wearing her "Merry Widow," for she fetched up against the sides of the door with n bang, her hat falling to clear tbe opening by a good three Inches on either side. However, the young lady was equal to the emergency. She calmly grasped Hie brim of her hat with both hands, tilted It to Oue side nnd glided through the door like n snilboat going through n drawbridge.

The first notice of India rubber dates back 500 yearn, when Herrera, a Span- Jnb historian, during .the eecond voyage of Columbus, saw that "the natives of Haiti playv-d with balls made of tho gum of a tree, which were lighter and bounced better tban the wind balls of Cntitile."

There ls a plant growing ln the southern waters of the United States which possesses the singular property of being able to render the most impure stnudlng water perfectly healthy. The people of Louisiana and Mississippi call It the water lotus. It consists of leaves about the size of .the head of a pin and roots eo fine ns to escape notice save under a microscopic inspection. Where it growg_ at All, It covers tbe water and to the casual observer looks like a coating of green scum. Tbe flowers and seeds f,re microscopic, so that its appearance ln any given locality is not readily bc- tounted for, but wherever It does appear the water beneath ls always fit to drink. So marked is this property thut families using tho water from bayous where the lotus ls abundant are known to have better general health than <hose taking their drinking water from places where the lotus ls not found. It Is often transplanted Into ponds, bayous and lnkes, sprends with wonderful rapidity and never falls to do Its work well. Bach of the Generals Thona-ht That the Other Wai Dead. General Barlow of the Union army fell wounded and, It was thought, dying during tbe flrst day of the battle of Gettysburg and within the Confederate lines. General Gordon, cantering by, saw bim and recognized him. Dismounting, he approached the prostrate man and inquired what be could do for bim. "I am dying," said Barlow. "Just reach luto my coat pocket, draw out thc letter you find there and read it te me. It ls from my wife." ' Gordon read thc letter. "Now, general," said Barlow, "please destroy that letter. I want you to notify her���she is in the town over yonder ���what has happened to me." "I will," replied Gordon. He Bent for Mrs. Barlow, giving her safe conduct through the southern lines, and then rode away, certain that Barlow's death was a question of only a few hours at most. But Barlow did not die. His wife came promptly and had him removed to tho town of Gettysburg, where sbe nursed him so faithfully that he recovered. Many years passed until one night both generalB were guests at a dinner ln Washington. Some one brought them together and formally Introduced them. Time had altered the personal appearance of both. "Are you any relation to the General Barlow who was killed at Gettysburg?" asked Gordon. "Yes; a very near relation," answered Barlow, with a laugh. "I am the very man who was killed. But I have been informed tbat a nvm named Gordon lost his life ln battle later ou. He saved my life at Gettysburg. Are you any kin to that man?" "I am he," was the reply. Both heroes laughed ns they gave each other a heartier handshake. IF YOU ARE WELL BRED- Yon will try to make others happy. Yon will not be shy or self conscious.

Among thc natives of Australia notched nnd carved sticks are used for messages. For lnstnnce, a piece of wood carried from one village to another with straight nnd curved lines cut upoii it is a message of war and means: "There ls a fight on hand. Fetch your spears nnd boomerangs." The Nortb Ainericnn Indians utilized wnuipuui belts from time immemorial for like purposes. The arrangement of tbo different colored beads conveyed the signification desired. l'lnylnix Sufe. "Look here, slrl You have been cnll- ing on my dnughtor -every night for tbe past six months!"
