AT THE POUING �� Voting Was Carried on Without an Hitch, Only One Ballot Paper Spiled. Polling openod on Saturday last at tho ltgal hour, and although no tremendous rufh was noticed, there was much bustle und excitement around the various polling stations in the liding. Automobiles and carriages wero conspicuous hy their absence. Snowshoes end shovels were the aids to locomotion in many instances. The voting mas steadily maintained throughout tho day, the last vote being cast at Sandon ot 6.40. Only one ballot is reported spoiled, and that nt Nakusp. All the results ���where communication could be made by wire���were known at 7.20, and the victorious candidate was wiring messages of thanks fifteen minutes later. All interest was next centred on the blackboard at the Reco Hotel, where a continuous stream of messages arrived until 1 a.m. Sunday. POLLING IN THE SLOCAN.

Seventy four votes wore polled in Sandon, This is 02 lie's than the last provincial election. There will bo 400 next trip. W'heu the result was announced at about 8.30, there was great lejoieing all over the riding among the Conservatives and Win. Hunter was the recipient of many Congratulatory telegrams. No speeches were made, but a great deal of money changed hands. Great excitement prevailed throughout the evening when the telegiams from other ridings in the province arrived telling of Mc- Bl'ide's victory and return to power. At the election held on October 2nd, 1903, Wm. Davidson received 358 vote*, whilst Win. Hunter received 289 votOB, giving Davidson a majority of 09. The tota'. vote cast on that occasion was 647. On Saturday the total vote cast was 390. Silverton, B.C., Feb. 4th, 190C. To the Editor of the Review: Dear Sir,���Kindly permit nie through your valuable paper to express my thanks to ths band of workers who labored so assiduously to 6ecuro my return at the ^recent elections, and to every voter who assisted me in securing so handsome a plurality Thanking you, I am Vour obedient servant, WM. HUNTER. Hunter struck the skidoo 28 here, but it meant skidoo for somebody else. Tlie Socialist majority in Sandon would have been larger had not scrutineers gone from here to several other points. Who said Docksteader would lose his deposit? Who said Davidson would he defeated? Who said Hunter would be returned with a handsome majority? Guilty here. . If you see it in the Review it's so. Is the ballot secret ? One man voted at Rock Island, and he voted for Hunter. What politics was lie ? "It's easy to see you're a Liberal." remarked tho scribe to a well-known citizen, last Sunday. "You're wrong," retorted the latter. "I've just come out of the hospital, and that's what makes me look like this." Tiie piteouB wail which emanated from the empty bellies of the Liberals was disregarded by the people last Saturday. A few crumbs of comfort were distributed here and there, but the general result is so astounding to them that they feel and look like thirty cents. Has anybody seen Archibald Bone's deposit lying around ? If you see it in the Review, it's so 1 Poor Archie! Covet not that which belongs to others. Cut and come again! It makes us laugh! A fool and his money is soon parted. Le tout ensemble: "Coek-a-doodle- doo." "To have nothing but one's labor for one's pains." Hard luck, sure-ly. "If yon would enjoy the (ruit, pluck not ttie flower." "Old reckonings breed new disputes." That's the bunch. Telegrams from all parts of tlie. riding reached Sandon at regular interval! on Saturday, which were sent for the purpose of creating doubt here. With slight variations these all read "Dook- steader strongest man here; help, help." The merry "h:i ha" altogether, p'etiso.

H�� had been ailing for about two weeks, and was at first treated at the Miner's Union Hospital (or a frozen foot, but taking his discharge, he accompanied the hockey club to New Denver, on tho 29th inst, and contriet- ed a cold tiiere. Pneumonia speedily developed and his condition became serious. He passed away on Monday morning last ft 8 a.m. in the presence of his father and aunt and several of his friends. The sad event has cast a depressing gloom over the city, as the boy was a eonspicious figure and most cordially liked. Coming si soon after tho death of the pioneer, whose demise we chronic led last week, it has had a nioit depressing effect.

Funeral service* wore held at Irs homo on Wednesday morning and the interment took place at New Denver the same day. Rev. F. J. Rutherford priached a most eloquent funeral oration over .the remains, and his Hinds made a lasting impression on his hcare ��.

A large number of friends of the deceased accompanied the lomains to their last resting-place at New Denver, where the last sad rites were performed hy tlie Rev. W. G. Brown.

Where Archie's deposit is : Who said " cold-de,ked ? " 1 It is aho our painful duty to icord the death of Warren Wetinore, which took place at tlie hospital cm Thursday morning. His death came as a great surprise to many, as he had only been ailing for about a week. He was admitted into the iiospital last Sunday, and getting worse, Dr. Brouse, of New Denver, consulted with the house surgeon here, and the case was determined hopeless. The cause of his death was nccutc inflammation of the liver. Wanen Wetinore has lived in the Slocan for about seven yeare. High wages and go id prospects induced him to luave Sin Jose, California, where he had a wife and thne children, and for the latter he was anxious to provide a lirst-elsss education. His eldest son was sent to the famous Stanford University, Cal., where he is now studying medicine. Ills ono object In life was to earn big money to forward to his family, and he debarred himself of any pleasure that his offspring might be the better provided for. He has worked in the hills, but when men wore not needed for mining he was to be seen at work around town almost immediately. lit was very reliable, and his services wero therefore in great demand. In manner he was unobtrusive and everabateinlons. II�� was universally admired and respected by the entirn community, and by his death the city of Sindon sustains a severe loss. Ho was born in UtitTalo, New York, in 1359, and from thee he went to California when he reached man's estate. 1 lis family consists of two sons ftnd on.) daughter, all grown up. On behalf ol the city wc extend our sincerest sympathy to his sorrowing relatives. An effort lias been made to communicate with the deceased's relatives, hut as the wires are -down all over the country, it is probable that, failing instructions otherwise, the interment will take place either here or at New Denver as soon as ft casket can be procured from the outside. In the Ymir riding the official majority ol Schofleld (Con.), was 105. The vote was as follows: S.:ho(ield 378, Hume 173, and Houston 120.

By JAY-JAY. *^i<i'***+**************r**l Did anything drop? The decisive manner in which the cltctois of'the Slocan supported Wm. Hunter on Saturday last w��s not at ail surprising. At the second time of asking, the "grand old man" of the richest silver lead district of British Columbia, has been returned on a Conservative ticket, and this time his former, vanquisher is now the vanquished. The labor body made the mistake of their lives when they embraced the Socialist propaganda, and they realizo it now when loo late. There is work to be done by the workers, but Socialism is too comprehensive to be applicable to tlie local requirements. As long as this world lasts there will he capitalists, snd there must bo workers. While organized labor acts on tho defensive and cautiously attacks and entrenches itself stiongly, the desideratum will be reachod swifter and surer. To bolilly wage war against capital and c.rry hostilities to the mouth of the opposing guns means the inevitable destruction of the party who are defending labor, and the annihilation of tho working units. Labor always needs strong champions, but these loaders must adopt, rational business-like methods if they desire to faithfully serve their supporters. To secure the best results for the workers, none hut business men w*th business me: hods should be cho-cr*. as standard hearers. A man may hnvo * great penchant fur ready retort and platform oratory, hut thi* alone should not suffice. Too often is it tlie c;.se that l.ibor chooses as its lea !cr a man who id capable of putting up a big talk, but who also lacks the essential qualities to success* fully run a jerkwater grocery store in a flourishing neighborhood. Wo dp not intend this to ho personal, and when wc say that, it must not be inferred that wo ar�� trying to "lick spittle." We have too meat a reacted for the cnu*e of the workers to be si enced by veiled threats from extremists. We work as hard as any man in British Columbia, and are proud to be called a worker. We are therefore entitled to give our opinion ns to what would ho best for British Columbia and be-t tm* the Slocan. The' fi.tire prosperity of our many camps in rhia mining country is bound up in the advent of capital to develop our properties. We mint not scaic capital off. Socialism demands that "wealth belongs to the producers," and capital lakes the same stand as a worker would, insofar aa giving nothing away that it doesn't have to. Win. Hunter is o friend of the working man, ar.d we do not believe otherwise than thnt ninety per centof Ihe voters who cast their ballots agiiust him are glud that he is returned. All congratulations, then, to our newly elected member. Let us close the ranks for the none; and work harmoniously to lift the depression now existing in the Slocan. Make the wants of the country known, but don't bellyaeho if you don't get what you don't ask for.

"I should have said, you are very thoughtful. You .will call me if I sleep late?" "We shall start early, with your permission. It Is forty miles to Oanlook, and we must be half way there by nightfall." "Must we spend another night like this?" cried Beverly dolefully. "Alas, I fear you must endure us another night. I am afraid, however, we shall not find quarters as comfortable as those of the Hawk and Raven." "I didn't mean to be ungrateful and ���er���snl'ppish," she said, wondering If he knew the meaning of the word. -"No?" he said politely, aud she knew he did not, whereupon she felt distinctly humbled. "You know you speak such excellent English," she said irrelevantly. He bowed low. As he Btraigutened his figure, to his amazement, he beheld an agonizing look of horror on ber face, her eyes riveted on the mouth cf the cavern. Then there came an angrier sound, unlike auy that had gone before lu that night of turmoil. "Look there! Quick!" The cry of terror from the girl's palsied lips as she pointed to something behind him awoke the mountain man to Instant action. Instinctively he snatched his long dagger from its sheath and turned quickly. Not twenty feet from them a huge catlike beast stood half crouched on the edge of the darkness, his long tall switching angrily, Tbe feeble light'from the depth of the cave threw the long, water soaked visitor into bold relief against the black wall beyond. Apparently lie was us much surprised as the two who glared at him, ns though frozen to the spot. A snarling whine, a tierce grow), Indicated his fury at tiiiiliug his shelter, his lair, occupied. "My Cod! A mountain lion! Ha- vone! Kruuz! To tuo!" ho cried hoarsely, nud sprung before ber shoutlug loudly to the sleepers. A score of men, half awake, grasped their weapons nnd struggled to their feet In answer to his cnll. The lion's gaunt body shot through the air. In two bounds he wns upon the goat hunter. Baldos slootl squarely aud firmly to meet (lie rush of the maddened beast, his long dagger poised for the death dealing blow. "Run!" he shouted to her. Beverly Calhoun hud fighting blood In hor veins. Utterly unconscious of her action at the time, she quickly drew the little silver bundled revolver from the pocket of her gown. As mnn, beast and knife came together, In her excitement she tired recklessly at the combatants without nny thought of the Imminent danger of killing her protector. There was a wild scream of pain from the wounded beast, more pistol shots, fierce yells from the excited hunters, the rush of feet, and then the terrified and almost frantic girl staggered and fell against the rocky wall. Her wide gray eyes were fastened upou the writhing lion, and the smoking pistol was tightly clutched In her hand. It hnd all occurred in such an Incredibly short space of time thnt she could not yet realize what had happened. Her heart and brain seemed paralyzed, her limbs stiff and Immovable. Like the dizzy whirl of a kaleidoscope, tlie picture before her resolved Itself Into shape. The beast was gasping his last upon tbe rocky floor, the hilt of the gout hunter's dagger protruding from his side. Bnldos, supported by two of bis ���gen, stood above the savjige vlctlju.

She was ut bis side, the pistul falling from her nervous fingers. "Don't come near me. I'm all right!" he cried quickly. "Take care���your dress"��� "Oh, I'm so glud to lieur you speak! Never mind the dress! You are torn to pieces! You must be frightfully hurt. Oh, Isn't It terrible-horrible! Aunt Fanny! Come here this minute!" Forgetting the beast and throwing off the paralysis of [ear, she pushed one Of the men away and grasped tlie arm of the Injured man. He winced perceptibly, and she felt something warm and sticky on her bands. She knew it wns blood, but It was not In ber to shrink at a moment like this. "Your arm too!" sbe gasped. He smiled, although his face was white In Iter excitement the fired recklessly. with pain. "How brave you were! You might have been���I'll never forget it���never! Don't stand there, Auut Fanny! Quick! Get those cushions for him. He's hurt." "Good Lawd!" was all the old woman could say, but she obeyed her mistress. "It was easier than it looked, your highness," murmured Baldos. "Luck was with me. Tbe knife went to his heart. I am merely scratched. His leap was short, but he caught me above the knee with bis claws. Alas, your highness, these trousers of mine were bad enough before, but now they are in shreds. What patchiug I shall have to do!

He threw himself upon the ground aud calmly placed his bead upon tlie body of the animal. "I Insist upou your taking theBe cushions," cried Beverly. "And I decline Irrevocably." She stared ut bim in positive auger. "Trust Ravone to dress these trifling wounds, your highness. He may not be ns gentle, but be Is as Arm as any princess lu all the world." "But your aim?" she cried. "Didn't you say it was your legs? Your arm Is covered with blood too. Oh, dear me, I'm afraid you ate frightfully wounded." "A stray bullet from oue of my men struck nie there. 1 think. You know there was hut little time for aiming"��� "Walt! Let me think a minute! Good heavens!' she exclaimed, with a Btart. Her eyes were suddeuly filled with tears, and there was a break In her voice. "1 shot yon! Don't deny It ���don't! It is the right arm, and your men could not have hit It from where they stood. Oh, oh, oh!" Baldos smileil us he bared his arm. "Your aim wus good," lie admitted. "Hud not my knife already been In the lion's heart your bullet would hnve gone there. It is my misfortune thnt my anil was in Iheway. Besides, your highness, it bus only cut through the skin, and n little below, perhaps. It will he well In a day or two. I am sure you will find your bullet lu the carcass of our lamented friend, the probable owner of this place." Ravone, n hungry looking youth, took charge of the wounded lender, while her highness retreated to tbe furthest corner of the cavern, There she snt and trembled while the wounds were being dressed. Aunt Fanny bustled buck and forth, lirst uuceremoniously pushing ber way through the circle of men to take observations nud then reporting to the Impatient girl. The storm hnd passed, nnd the night wus still except for the rush of the river. Raindrops fell now and then from the trees, glistening like diamonds as they touched the light from the cavern's mouth. It was all very dreary, uncanny aud oppressive to poor Beverly. Now and then she caught herself sobbing, more out of shame und humiliation than In sadness, for hnd she not shot the man who stopped between her and dcuth? Whut must he thluk of her? "He snys yo' nil 'd bettuh go to bald, Miss Bev���yo' highness," said Aunt Fanny after one of her trips.

P. P., of Highgate. is relating an episode which occurred while lie wus in Merlin recently, says the Ridgetown Plafiidealer. Mr. Lee was stopping for the night ai the Marquis Hotel, a temperance house. After registering, Mr. Lee stepped into the sitting room and lit Iii;. pipe for a smoke before retiring. There were five other gentlemen in the room, all oil operators, interested in the Tilbury field, and all hale fellows. Mr. Lee also noticed that all were as well blessed, and some more so, witli avoirdupois as himself. After the informal introductions which followed Mr. Lee remarked on the similarity of heights and weights, which was apparent. He suggested that each man give the nationality of his parents, his age, his height and weight, and the following names and figures were the result. The similarity of parentage, height and weight will be apparent to the reader:��� C. W. Fulton, age 34, weight 200 lbs., height 6 ft. 4 1-4 inches, parentage Scotch-Irish. R. R. Lowry, age 51, weight 282, height 6 ft. 2 inches, parentage Scotch-Irish. W. M. Lowry, aged 52, weight 273, height 6 ft. 2., parentage Scotch-Irish. Mance Williams, age 36, weight 258, height 6 ft., parentage Scotch-Irish. Charles McGill, age 41, weight 256, height 5 ft. 11 inches, parentage Scotch-Irish. John Lee, age 61, weight 256, height 6 ft. 1 inch, parentage Irish. These six men weighed a total of 1,615 pounds. Wintering At Hudson Bay. Some interesting facts about the present position of the Canadian Government steamer Arctic, now wintering on tlie north shore of Hudson Bay, are contained in a letter from one of the erew, published in The St. John's (Nfld.) Herald. The letter was sent by the Dundee whaler Eclipse, which called at Ponds' Inlet on Sept. 20, at which time the Arctic had gone into winter quarters. The harbor was land-locked and surrounded by tlie highest mountains the crew had seen on their trip. On some of the islands claimed for Canada by the Arctic they found evidences of copper, coal and iron. The finding of the Franklin relics was related, and the letter stated that the Arctic would cruise northward and westward when released next spring, und expected to return to Quebec in October next. Tlie writer speaks of resetting the Franklin monument at Point Beechy, and painting the headboards on the graves of the seven sailors buried there. The remains of Franklin's house still stand and a couple of beats were found nearby. Tho crew, of whom niue were from Newfoundland, looked forward without apprehension to the coming winter.

Luxurious Palaces for London's Poor ���How the Rates Are Wasted���Offspring of Vicious In Luxury. If a stranger coming to London wishes to see how Poor Law relief is disbursed he should to to the offices of the Camberwell Botird in Peckham road. There he will find a magnificent building, which coat ��20,000, to accommodate members etf the board. This is a building totally distinct from the workhouses belonging to Camberwell. It is perhaps the finest building of its kind in the world. It would put many provincial town halls to shame. A short time ago Mrs. Bracey Wright, a member of the board, moved for a return of all paying patients in the Camberwell Infirmary. And Mrs. Edmonds, who seconded the proposal, pointed out that the infirmary was being maintained by poorer people than those found inside. The actual cist each week of these well-to- do paupers is ��1. 6s. 4d. Again, most people have heard and read of t'. 3 wonderful paupers' palace built by the Hammersmith Guardians at Wormwood Scrubs at a cost of a quarter of a million for the accommodation of 750 paupers. But few people who pass up Kingsway see the handsome block of buildings which form the finest and most complete workhouse of its size in London���built by the Strand Guardians. The architecture is pleasing; the interior is magnificent; the structure itself is a triumph for the architect and the builder. This building, which cost ��27,000, accommodates 127 tramps and 66 regular paupers, the part devoted to the "regulars" costing ��14,000, or about ��230 per head, excluding cost of site. Inside the building the stranger would never imagine himself to be in a workhouse. Polish, art shades for the walls, mosaic, or gleaming wood block for the floors greet him everywhere. Upstairs there is a suite of rooms for "ladies." The walls are faced with pale green tiles; a rug here and there, chairs, a few plants in the corners, and pictures on the walls give the room the appearance of creat luxury. In an adjoining room there stand the beds clean and bright, and by the side of each one is a child's cot, over the head of which is a dainty canopy. In this cot the offspring of the vicious lie surrounded by more luxury than con be given to children of the virtuous poor in their homes. Here in a nutshell is the whole problem as shown by the clergyman- guardian. Father Higley: Every Thursday when I go down to our workhouse at Bromley I see long lines of young men, well housed, well fed, well clothed, well Bhod, inmates of our workhouse. On my road down I see men afflicted in every way���undersized, knock-kneed, badly clothed, badly shod, working in all weathers���rain, cold and snow; and my blood boils, because I know that these poor afflicted men who are selling wood or some commodity in the streets, have to pay a lurge part of their hardly earned money to maintain men far abler than themselves to fight the battles of life. And yet the workhouse parasites are masters of the situation. The value of vigilance and the loss through laxity may be gathered from the following facts about Holborn, the guardian board of which woke up suddenly one day and had a "call over"���an exomination into the pauper history of every inmate. In one of their two workhouses the cases of 1,300 paupers were examined, with the result that 25 were lawfully placed with other unions to whom they belonged���some of them having lived on the Holborn ratepayers for many years; and 55 were found to possess relatives who could pay for their maintenance. Some astounding discoveries were made. A married woman, who had lived in the workhouse for many years, confessed that her husband was living in Marylebone. He was discovered and compelled to take his wife out. She had, however, cost the ratepayers hundreds of pounds. In another case quite recently a woman who posed as a widow and received outdoor relief was living with her husband, who was described as the lodger. These are but typical of the condition of tin management of some of our London workhouses. Instances sueh as that of the pauper Stourton, with ��1,400 in consols, are frequently occurring. The moneyed class among the paupers is larger than is imagined, but if guardians had more concern for their duties ad less for their love of power we Bhould hnve a wholesome and wholesale clearance of the professional pauper, whose flourishing condition is the result of appalling laxity.

McCarren has never been regarded as an authority in either ethics or economics, and it is therefore rather refreshing to discov- ar him discussing the question of the distribution of wealth, which is both an ethical and economic question. "The time is coming," he says: "when it will b3 odims to be wealthy." The Wall Street Jou nal be*s to differ with Senator McCarren. Wealth will never be odious except: 1. When the rich man is criminal. 2. When he is rnise ly. 3. When he displays his wealth to ippress others, to crush out competi- ion and to bribe h.'s way into political power. Riches will never he odious us long is the rich man conducts himself like a gentleman; using his wealth aright with becoming hospitality.

DAILY FADING AWAY The Story of a Woman Made Well by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Bud blood means bad health. That is why Dr. Williams' Pink Pills mean ���rood health. They actually make new. rich blood which stiengthens every nerve nnd every orgnn in tlie body. That is why people who use Dr. Williams' Pink Pills feel bright, active and strong. Mrs. Arthur Hanningan, Marshville, Ont., is n witness to the truth of these statements. Mrs. Hunningan says: "For nearly three yenrs I suffered from inaeniia (blootllessness) and during that time consulted and took medicine from several doctors, without beneficial results. My complexion wns of a waxy appearance, my lips nnd gums seemed bloodless. I suffered from hoadches, dizziness and palpitation of the heart. My appetite wns so poor that I did not care whether I ate or not nnd I grew so weak, and was so much reduced in flesh that my friends thought I was in consumption. As I have said I doctored without benefit, until the last doctor whom I consulted advised nie to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I followed his advice, and less than a dozen boxes have made me the well woman I urn today. All the symptoms of my troubles hnve vnn- isbed nnd I enjoy the best of health. 1 know there ure hundreds of women who are drifting into the same condition I was, and to all such I would strongly urge the immediate use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills."

A popular idea In Switzerland that aome of the wells In that country are reliable weather prophets has been proved by scientists to be well founded. These wells, by some sort of pressure, not clearly understood, have tho property of drawing In air at certain times and of blowing out air at other periods. In order to ascertain definitely If there was any truth In the Idea of weather prophecy the wells were covered and a email opening was surmounted with a U shaped pressure gauge. It was found that when the barometer rises the air rushes into the wells In a steady current, and when i the barometer falls the air rushes out Tbe currents of air are definite and easy to perceive, even without the gauge. Tbe geuerul tendency of the weather Is foretold with considerable certainty. W. N. U. No. 621 The sudden lowering of the temperature causes the pores of the skin to close, and thus throws on to the kidneys much work which is ordinarily performed by the skin. This, no doubt, accounts for the grent prevalence of kidney disease duiing the fall nnd winter. There is no treatment which so quickly affords relief to overworked and deranged ki'lneys tis Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills, because they act on the liver, as well as they kidneys, and when in lieulthful action the liver does much of the work of filtering the blood, which is otherwise left for the kidneys. Bright's Disease, dropsy, uric acid poisoning, stone in the bladder, and rheumatism are among the most painful forms of kidney disease, and these ailments can always be prevented by the timely use of Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills. They can also usually be cured by this treatment, but if you are so fortunate as to be yet free of these dreadful ailments, keep so by using Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver pj]]s t0 "^.pp the liver, kidneys and bowels in healthful working condition. Mr. James J. JenBon, 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 and effective in curing this ailment as Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills. At two different times in my life tin's preparation bus entirely cured me of this trouble, and of late years I have found it unnecps- snr.v, to use nny medicine whatever. I feel it my duty to add this statement to the many otheis which I sec in lecommendation of this excellent medicine." Mr. W. Ferguson blacksmith, Trenton. Out., says "In my work I urn bending over a great deal, and this, together with the constant strain on all .parts of the hotly, and the sudden change of temperature when going to und from tbe forge, brought . on kidney disease nnd hnckuche. At times I would suffer so that I would have to quit work to ease my buck, and felt so miserable most of the time I did not enjoy life very much. "As lust I decided that I would have to get relief in some way, and having heard of Dr. Chase's Kidney- Liver Pills as a successful cure for backache and kidney disease, I began using them. To my surprise nnd pleasure they helped me at once, nnd a few boxes ent'rely removed my troubles.

WESTERN CANADIAN EDITORS * A Series of Articles Describing their Lives, their Alms and their Influence. JOHN W. YOUNG. 69 **toiiiiitittiittoiHt.it* JOHN W. YOUNG Prince Albert Times. The west is offering eloquent inducements to tlie younger journalists of the east, eloquent because tbe inducements are of the nature of increased financial reward, n chance to enter the political arena, and climb to the top._ in a country where the nominations nre not cut und dried��� where every man will be given a place according to his ability, and his courage. During the past few years the number of these young men who have left the confines of the older provinces te make a place for themselves in the west has been ever increasing, ami the effect is being felt proportionately. One of these is ivlr. John W. Young, who iu company with the well known young newspaper man. R. P. Laurie, is in charge of the ties tinies of the Prince Albert Times. Mr. Young is a Chatham boy, was born and brought, up there, educated in the same town, und hns filled all the reportorial positions on the Chatham Planet, up to the desk of city editor. The parents of Mr. Young were among the early residents of Chatham, his father was a carriage builder, a man who took an active interest in all public affairs, and was once mayor of the city of Chatham. Both of Mr. Young's parents have been dead for some years. Equipped with a very fair education and a good measure of self-reliance, Mr. Young accepted his first newspaper position at the age ol twenty, and one needs no further indication of his perseverance than that he remained with the same papei through more than eight years, working his way up, till the time of his coming west, when he left the desk of city editor. Since taking over the Prince Albert Times, from the estate of tht late J. D. Maveety, last year, the new firm have more than trebled the plant, and have lifted the Times tc a high level in western journalism, taking the Conservative stand, and making their influence felt in no small way. Mr. Young was married in Chatham in 1904 to Miss Houston, daugh ter of Mr. M. Houston, police magistrate, and member of the law firm of Houston & Stone. We predict a bright future for Mr. Young in both journalistic and poli tical circles. It was tlie same old story of a man who refused to tell his wife the outcome of a business transaction in which naturally slip took a deep interest. "No," he sneered. "I won't tell you.

"Formation of fine, natural pearls by means of artificially controlling the growth of parasities that prey upon oys era is a new method of production pointed to as the iesult of recent research in Oceania by Mr. Seurat," asserts a French writer. "He made a special study of tlie formation of fine pearls, His conclusions shed new light upon a question hitherto rather obscure. The origin of the pearl is the subject of a Hindoo le- ii;iid, which attributes this beautiful lormation to the fall of a drop of dew into the bosom of an oyster gaping in the sun. Scientists have long oelieved that the pearl results f 10111 .1 secretion of the mollusk's nerves oy some foreign substance, like a 0'i*ain of sand, lodged within it.

When Alderman Broadbent, a brother of the King's well-known physician, took office as Mayor of Huddors- fleld, on November !), 1904, he offered t.i give parents living in a specified district of the city $5 for every child born during his twelve months in office and which lived to the age of a year. The result of the experiment was announced, the second anniversary of its inauguration. The rate of infant mortality in the Longwood district of Huddersfield, which is the experimen*. '.al area, had averaged 122 per thousand for the preceding ten years. The period of the test proved somewhat unfortunate. There were serious epidemics of whooping cough and meaB- les, while the summer of 1908 was one of the deadliest recorded. The first baby to earn the gift was born on November 10, 1904, and the last on November 8, 1905. The mothers notified the managing committee of the births of these babies. No fewer than 107 received the gift. Four died .and one did not claim the gift and its fate cannot be learned. If, however, it is reckoned as dead the average mortality works out 44 per thousand ns compared with tlie previous 122 per thousand. Mr. Broadbent in announcing the result at the Borough Council said this reduction in the average to less than one-half of what it had been was astounding. His promise of the gift of f) was intended as a stimulus to maternal affection, but to prove his desire to help mothers this was done through a committee of volunteer women workers who undertook to advise and assist the parents if they so desired. The babies belonged to all classes and there was no discrimination. Some lived in places which were hardly DeV ter than slums. You cannot bo happy while yon iave corns. Then do not delay in retting a bottle of Hollowny's Corn Cure. It lemoves all kinds of corns without pain. Failure with it is unknown. The Gladsome Bella. "Do you enjoy bearing the gladsome Christmas bells?" we ask of our friend who has retired from business pursuits. "I did last year, and thnfs tUe truth." "They had a Joyous sound then?" "I should say tbey had. They were the fire bells, and my stock of unsold but heavily insured Christmas staff was burned."���Judge, "Patradlae Loat." Milton's "Paradise Lost" was commenced between 1639 and 1642 and completed about the time of the "great Are of London" In September, 1666. Its author composed it In passages of from ten to twenty lines at a time and then dictated them to an amanuensis, usually some attached friend. It was first published In 1667 by one Samuel Simmons, aud a second edition appeared In 1674. For these two editions INfllton received ��10 and his widow ES more.���London Graphic. Over and Above. "Mother, does Dr. Smith wear bis everyday clothes under that long white gown wheu be preaches?" asked a little girl who bad seen tbe edge of the minister's trousers under his robe. "Yes, dear," was the reply. "Well," she continued, "now I know why It Is called a surplus."- PASTOR AND PEOPLE PRAISE PSYCHINE (PRONOUNCED SbKEtK) ii Marvellous and Triumphant Record ef Victory Over Disease. No medicine has ever effected as luge 1 number of wonderful and almost marvellous cures as Psychins. It has had one continuous record of victories over diseas- M of the throat, chest, lungi and itomaoh.
