The political air is full of froth. Those likely ones spoken of as conservative candidates are W. A. Macdonald, K.C., and R. S. Lennie, of Nelson; James Schoiiold of Trail, the present sitting member for Ymir in the Provincial Legislature; Fred. Starkey, of Nelson, Wm. Hunter, the provincial member for this Hiding, and A. E. Watts, of Wattsburg. "Bill" Galliher, the present member, would be a hard man to unaeat if he again contested the Riding, but it is rumoured that he will retire at the end of his term. F. J. Deane, Editor of'the Nelson News, will likely be seen in the nrena in the event of Galliher's retirement as a Liberal candidate. Charles Dsliiney, son ol Mr. and Mrs. J. F.

We are glad to loarn of the good tim>*e around the Knalo Kootcnnin office, and congratulate our cstenned c tern upon installing a monoline typesetting machine. If the people ol tho Slocan will do their part we should be in a position lo do likewiso within twelve months. Many of our citizens are cmlemplat- ng a trip to the New Denver glaciers as soon as the snow has disappeared from the mountain, and wc think that Iho Town Improvement Society should in- augurate a " Glacier Day," and upon that dar invite tho Canadian Alpine Club to make the ascent. Eron were they not successful the first year in seeming the patronage of that association, there would he many visitors who would he only too delighted to join the local puny wire they but invited to do so.

It will require some tall rustling to do this, but Mr. Hunter informs us tbat, given good weather, it will he accomplishd in that time. The new railway track is graded, and logging is proceeding at the camp opposite Silver- ton. The company has a big lie contract for the C.P.R., but they will aleo market general lumber.

Whoever ia nominated for the Slocan riding to contest the seat at tlie next Dominion election, should be a clean man.

He should be a man whom the division will respect for his conscientious labors in his sphere ol usefulness at Ottawa, and ho should he beyond reproach as a friend of Iahor. He should bo unbiassed when capital and labor clash, and he Bhould throw his weight with the right. It would be a sacrilice of interests to send a man whose voice is heard only on behalf of capital, abd by Iho same common law, it would be unjust to return a man whose vote and interest is selfishly de- yotcd_ to labor alone.

In the forthcoming Dominion elections, which, hy the way, we prognosticate will lake plnce next November, much will be heard locally ol "wage slaves" and the "capitalistic, press." The "wage slaves" of B.C., however, can yet happily "yuuip their yob" if it doesn't suit, and the man that Bays the "Review" iB subsidized by capitalists, is a liar.

It will ho well for ns lo lake stock of tho country and Onrefully consider-along what lines it can bist.be developed, nnd for whnt crops or clasi of stick it is best suited. We can grow the small fruits to perfection, oh Mr. Vanstone has so well demonstrat "d at Rosebery, anil wc have a local market thai can lake agood deal of fruit if it is properly looked after, and regularly supplied, but as regards thc big outside markets we must confess that at present we are at a con ulerahle disadvantage. To overcome this disadvantage, if we decide that we wish lo grow the email fruits we must co-operate. Our trouble licB In the fact that we should have to grow lhe fruit on a very large scale and make regular shipment:* ol car loads right from the neighbourhood, otherwise our fruit will suffer from the delay nnd rchaiidling at some distant point. If we do manage to ship by the car load, and we are careful to grow the right sorl of fruit and pack it in the light way, tha small extra distance that wo are from the North-West, compared with such points as Nelson, will not he a very Serious disadvantage. If we wish to grow Btrawberries for put side points, wc shall need to get together and decide on the variety to grow ; then each must agree lo plant and look after a certain quantity, for it will not pay to go for tha outside markets in any half-hearled manner. We can grow pi aches here, but there are places where they can grow them much better, I believe; wherea__I also bellove that there is no place where they can grow better apples, pears, or plums. Therefore, it Ecenis plain to myself that we had belter concentrate our efforts on these. Tlio valley of the Slocan River has always appeared to me to be admirably suite 1 for dairying. There is a large amount of land thnt is flooded in the early summer, but whicli should make splendid pasturage at Ihe time when the benches are getting dried up. Wc can grow red clover to perfection here; with the aid of irrigation we should be able lo get two crops per year. We can also grow splendid roots if we keep the cutworms well poisoned off, the summer iiighlsnio cool and there is abundance of good water. Now these are the conditions that make a good dairy country. When we consider the splendid local market for butter and the high prices we pay for very inferior butter, we sball wonder how loug it will bo beiore tho farmers down Ihe Slocan River get together aud build a creamery. But if this country can be made a good dairying country, il is even better adapted to poultry���and poultry raising and fruit growing go better together than dairying and fruit growing. There is no reason why eggs, chickens or turkeys should be imported to this neighlionr- hood, and we will look forward to the time when the Slooan is self supporting iu this matter. Wc are not likely to become famous for wheat or oats, but we may hope lo raise a great part of our chicken feed, and by letting thc hens do their own thrashing, we shall keep them well exercht'd and healthy during the winter. Mr. George Williamson planted some fall wheat last September, at the fame time sowing the land down to clover, and it appeals to ma that we are likely to find this plan profitable, though enre will have to bo exercised where the wheat is grown amongst fruit treos, that the land is well cultivated round each tree. J. C. HARRIS, Geo. Bruder, the man that brews the hops that have made Saudon famous, returned from a trip to the east. He returned alone, rumor to the contrary notwithstanding.

Now that the Liquor Licence Act has heen amended, it will peihaps be instructive to publish a survey ol the amended Act, ns nil hotels, with the exception of those directly within the jurisdiction of municipalities, come under the amended law. Primarily, all districts under "Llcfuor Licence Act, 1900," have been abolished. This dons away with License Commissioners, and all pollers are now vested in the Superintendent of Provincial Police, butit'is lawful for Ilie superintendent of provincial police to grant licenses to sell liquor in localities not in any municipality, and not included in any liceiue district, and all persons obtaining Ihe same shall be subject lo all lho provisions of the Act as fnr aa applicable. The* superintendent shad he guided by the provlsionsof the Act in granting the liconses, except when the circumstances of the case lender it impossible or inconvenient to so lo do, provided Unit no application for new licenses or a renewal has been granted, and then only can the application bo entertained, provided that the applicant has advertised Ills intention of applying for such license, such advcrlise- nient shall he published in a newspaper published and circulated iu the district for a peiiod of one month. The superintendent of provincial police may at any lime cause any license granted or renewed I y hiin to be cancelled upon satisfactory proof that tlie licensee ii not keeping his premises in accordance wilh the provisions of the Act, or is keeping bin premises in a disorderly manner. D. J. McKenzie Killed. Tlie sad news reached town yesterday of a fatal accident at Tunnel, B.C., a li.ig station in the boundary, between Cascade and Robson. From the information of the sad event which is nt our command, we learn that Mr. D. J. McKenzie, the highly esteemed C.P.R. bridge superintendent of this division waa crushed to death by a falling derrick. The sorrowful news has cast a gloom over this district, where Mr. McKenzie was well known. He wns one of lhe oldest timers in this suction, but when at home he livei at Nelson. He was in New Denver a few days ago, and his genial presence was as sunshine to cloud. To hia sorrowing relatives we extend tho sympathy of this district. f Leasers Get Decision. Judgment in the suit of Forrest st al versus Smilli and Treres has heen handed in by Justice Martin. The case has excited a great deal of local interest and the finding of Mr. Justice Hunter is being fully criticized throughout the district. Tiie suit wns hoard at Nelson on Friday, December 13th last, and lhe hearing occupied a day, all parties then agreed to the suggestion of the learned judge to hand in hia judgment in writing at a later date. The defendant, Walker Smith, had a lease upon all tho Payne mine workings, and from him the plaintiff, A'ex. Forrest and partners secured a sub-lease on No. 5 level. Plaintiffs wero lo receive 78 percent, on all ore extracted by them during their tenure, the remaining 22 per cent, being divided between the company, Smith, and the Government, Smilli, it was asserted, waa in financial difficulties, and prior to granting the sub-lease he borrowed money on a cha'tel mortgage from E. C. Traves. lhe well-known meat merchant, of Nclion Plaintiffs strenuously denied knowledge of this mortgage. The mortgage covered all the ore taken out by Smith, and upon the plaintiffs making arrangements to ship some $3,000 worth of silver-lead they were threatened with legal proceedings, Plaintiffs asked that-the chattel mortgage lie set aside. The judgment given is in favor of Forrest ami Partners for tho amount claimed, but they will have to collect from Smith, as the learned judge has decided lhnt thc mortgage holds good. The action agninst Traves waa dismissed with coats. It is probable that an appeal will he made. S. S. Taylor for plaintiffs, R W. Hannington and R. M. Macdonald for defendants. SOMETHING WRONG EDITOR. WITH THIS Speaking of the rotten shows thnt come over tho Crow's Nest line, the Fernie Free Press thinks it is duo to the fict that performers of merit do nbt have to suffer the trials of an itinerary through tlie Binaller towns of the growing west to make a living. It says*. "We have seen the trusting public of Fernie put up a dollar per chair to see a so-called vaudeville Combination that kail been forced out of the dime theatres of the Coast cities for lack of patronage, We have heard voices that aro eminently Suited to the useful service of calling the cattle home, murdering everything from a coster song to grand opera, anil these people were heralded as artists ill tlieir "line," but we would rather pay a dollar to be fooled by a stranger than to lend the countenance of our presence to an entertainment composed of home talent that can inlerli'in.

It ia, in short, a combined ell'ort to attach to the New Denver glacier the im- porianco in the woiId of sights Ihat it' warrants. The glacier overlooking tho lown of New Denver has rightly been looked up ni ns an asset to the town.

This ascent is proposed to bo made about midsummer, and all details will be announced later. The trail to the glacier by thnt time will ho in good shape and substantial cabins wheivhi the travellers will speed the night will bo established. Invitations will bo extended to tho Canadian Alpine Club and representatives of the press, and lhe expenses of tho actu.il trip to the glacier will be borne by the T. I. Society. Whilst in town tho visitors will be the guests of the society, and an eO'ort will he mado to supersede all previous hospitality. It is indeed a comprehensive style of advertising our scenic beauties to the world, and all will vie in giving tlie visitors the time ol tlieir lives. The above was mooted at the regular meeting of tho executive committee held on March 25th and tho matter has been taken up with an earnestness that is commendable. Other business transacted was as follows : The Secretary IH. Cue) reported having written to L. O. Armstrong, C.P.R.

The Nelson Canndinn, of 21st inst. makes some remarks whicli all merchants and business men in tho Slocan should carefully ponder over. It Eays : "The Slocan Mining Review, ol New Denver, has in view lhe extension of its facilities for getting out a hotter paper, and this will "mean nn additional expenditure of .100 per month. The publisher appeals to the residents of the Slocan to inciease their patronage, so that he will not have te stand all the expense. The Review is one of the brightest weekly papers published in Ilritish Columbia, and if Ihe people of the Slocan district conault their own interests, they will respond to the np- peal by increasing the revenue, not if 100 a month, but five times Unit amount. Every dollar spent that way will return many fold." Wednesday's K. *.": S. train from Kaslo arrived at Sandon 24 hours late. Mudslides and snow slides, J. W. M.

Breakfast over, the two young men repaired to the library, where Guy indulged in his cigar, while the doctor fidgeted for a time, and then broke out abruptly: "I say, Guy, have you said anything to her about���well, about me, you know?" "Why, no, I've hardly had a chnnce; and then, again, I concluded i> better for each one to speak for himsell"; and carelessly knocking the ashes Irom his hall-smoked cigar, Guy leaned back in his chair, with his eyes, and, to all appearance, thoughts, wholly intent upon the curls of smoke rising above his head. "Guy, if you were not engaged, I should be tempted to think you wanted Maddy Clyde yourself," the doctor suddenly exclaimed, conlronting Guy, who, still watching the rings of smoke, answered with tlie most provoking coolness, "You should?" "Yes, I should; and I am not certain but you do, as it is. Guy," and the doctor grew very earnest in his manner, "if you do care for Maddy Clyde, and she for you, pray tell me bo before I make a fool of myself." "Doctor," returned Guy, throwing the remains of liis cigar into the grate and folding his hands on his head, "you desire that I be frank, and I | will. I like Maddy Clyde very much��� v more, indeed, than any girl I ever met���except Lucy. Had I never seen her���Lucy, I mean���I cannot tell how I should feel toward Maddy. The chances are, however, that much as I admire her, I should not make her my wile, even if she was willing. But I have seen Lucy. I am engaged to be married. I shall keep that engagement, and if you have feared me at all as a rival, you may fear me no longer. I do not stand between you and Maddy Clyde." Guy believed that he was saying the truth, notwithstanding that his heart beat faster than its wont, and hia voice was a little thick. It was doubtful whether he would marry Maddy Clyde, if he could. By nature, and education he was very proud, and the inmates of the red cottage would have been an obstacle to be surmounted by his pride. He knew they were good, far better than himself; but from his earliest remembrance, he had been taught that blood and family and position were all-important; that by virtue of them Remington was a name of which to be proud; that his father's foolish marriage with a pretty governess was the first misalliance ever known in the family, and that he was not likely to follow that example was a point fully established in his own mind. He might admire Maddy very much, and, perhaps, build castle of what might possibly have been, had she been in his sphere of life; but, should he verily think of making ber his wife, the olden pride would certainly come up a barrier between them. Guy could not explain all this to tlie doctor, who would have been tempted to knock him down, if he had; but he succeeded in quieting his fears, and even suggested bringing Maddy in there, if the doctor wished to know his fate then. "I hear her now���I'll oall her," he Baid; and, opening the door, he spoke to Maddy, just passing through the hall. "Dr. Holbrook wishes to see you," he snid, ns Maddy came up to him; and holding the door for her to enter, he saw her take the seat he bad just vacated. Then closing it upon them, he walked away, think- ine that Inst nisht's party, or something, had produced a bad effect on him, making him blue and wretched, just ns he should suppose a criminal would feel when about to be executed. CHAPTER XVI. Now that they were alone, the doctor's courage forsook him and he ���could only stammer out some commonplace remarks about the party, asking how Mnddy had enjoyed it, and if she was sure she had entirely recovered from the effects of her fainting fit. He was not getting on at all, and it was impossible for him to sny anything ns lie had meant to say it. Why couldn't she help him, instead of looking so unsuspiciously at him with those large, bright eyes? Didn't she know how dear she was to him? He should think she might. She might hnve divined it ere this; and if so. why didn't she blush, or something? At last she came to bis aid by saying, "Vou promised to tell me about tbe h-neelets and necklace, whether I ought to keep them." "Yes, oh, yes, he believed he did." And getting up from his chair, the doctor began to walk the floor, the better to hide his confusion. "Yes, the brncelets. You looked very pretty in them, Maddy, very; but you are always pretty���ahem���yes. If you were engaged to Guy I Bhould say it was proper; but if not, why, I don't know; tlie fact is, Maddy, I am not quite certain what I am saying, bo you must excuse me. I almost hated vou that day you sent the note, tailing me you were coming to be examined; but I had not seen you then. I did not know how, after a while���a very little while���I should in all probability���well, I did; I changed my mind, and I���I guess you have not the slightest idea what I mean." And stopping suddenly, he confronted the astonished Maddy, who replied: "Not unless you are going crazy." She could in no other way account for his strange conduct, and she sat staring at him while he continued: "I told you once that when I wanted my bill I'd let you know. I'd ask for pay. I want it now. I present my bill." With a scared, miserable feeling, Maddy listened to him, wondering where she should get the money, if it were possible for her grandfather to raise it, and how much her entire wardrobe would bring, suppose she should sell it! The bill had not troubled her latterly, lor she had fallen into a way of believing that the doctor would wait until she was graduated and could earn it by teaching. _i9tbi_!g 8a_l_d_ be . mors ino._i__Drtu.ie tnan ior mm to present It rio"w;'"and with a half-stifled sob she began to speak, but he silenced her by a gesture, and sitting down beside her, said, in a.voiee more natural than the one with which he had at first addressed her: "Maddy, I know you have no money. It is not that I want, Maddy; I want���I want���you." He bent down over her now, for her face was hidden in her hands, all sense of sight shut out, all sense of hearing, too, save the words he was pouring into her ear���words whicli burned their way into her heart, making it throb for a single moment with gratified pride, and then growing heavy as lead as she knew how impossible it was for her to pay the debt as he desired. "I can't, doctor; oh, I can't!" she sobbed. "I never dreamed of this; never supposed you could want me for your wife. I'm only a little girl���only sixteen last October���But I'm so sorry for you, who have been so kind. If I onlv could love you as you deserve I I do love you, too; but not the way you mean. I cannot be Maddy Holbrook; no, doctor, I cannot." She was sobbing piteously, and in his concern for her the doctor forgot somewhat the stunning blow he had received. "Don't, Maddy, darling!" he said, drawing her trembling form closely to him. "Don't be so distressed. 1 did not much think you'd tell me yes, and I was a fool to ask you. I am too old; but, Maddy, Guy is as old as 1 am.-" The doctor did not know why he said this, unless in the first keenness of his disappointment there was a satisfaction in telling her that the objection to his age would apply also to Guy. But it did not affect Maddy one whit, or give her the slightest inkling of his meaning. He saw it did not, and the pain was less hard to bear. Still, he would know certainly if he had a rival, and so he said: "Do you love someone else, Maddy? Is another preferred before me, and hs that the reason why you cannot love me?" "No," Maddy answered, through her tears. "There is no one else. Whom should I love, unless it were you? I know nobody but Guy." That name touched a sore, aching chord in the doctor's heart, but he gave no sign of the jealousy which had troubled him, and for a moment there was silence in the room; then, as the doctor began faintly to realize that Maddy had refused him, there awoke within him a more intense desire to win her than he had ever felt before. He would not give her up without another effort, and laying her unresisting head upon his bosom, he pleaded again for her love, going over all the past, and telling of the interest awakened when first she came to him that April afternoon, almost two years ago; then of the little sick girl who had grown so into the heart never before affected in the least by womankind, and lastly of the beautiful woman, as he called her, sitting beside him now in all the freshness of her young womanhood. And Maddy, as she listened, felt for him a strange kind of pity, a wish to do his bidding if she only could, and why shouldn't she? Girls had married those whom they did not love, and been tolerably happy witli them, too. Perhaps she could be so with the doctor. There was everything about him to respect, and much which she could love. Should she try? There was a great lump in Maddy's throat as she tried to speak, but it cleared away, and she said very sadly, but very earnestly: ,"Dr. Holbrook, would you like me to say yes with my lips, when all the time there was something at my heart tugging to answer no?" This was not at all what Maddy meant to say, but the words were born of her extreme truthfulness, and the doctor thus learned the nature ol the struggle which he saw plainly was going on. "No, Maddy, I would not have you say yeB unless your heart was in it," he answered, while he tried to smile upon the tearful face looking up so sorrowfully at him. But the smile was a forlorn one, and there came instead a tear as he thought how dear was the fair creature who never would be his. Maddy saw the tear, and as if she were a child wiped it from his cheek; then, in tones which never faltered, she told him it might be in time she'd learn to love him. She would try so hard, she'd think of him always as her promised husband, and by that means should learn at last not to shrink Irom taking him for such. It might be ever so long, and perhaps she should be twenty or more, but some time in the future she should feel differently. Was he satisfied, and would he wait? Hor little hand was resting on his shoulder, but he did not mind its soft pressure or know that it was there, so strong was the temptation to accept that hall-made promise. But the doctor was too noble, too unselfish to bind Maddy to himself unless she were wholly willing, and he said to her that if she did not love him now she probably never would. She could not make a love. She need not try, as it would only result in her own un- happiness. They would be friend* just as they always had been, and none need know oi what had passed between them, none but Guy. "I must tell him," the doctor said, "because lie knows that I was going to ask you." Maddy could not explain why it was that she felt glad the doctor would toll Guy. She did not analyze any of her feelings, or stop to ask why she Bhould care to have Guy Remington know the answer she had given Dr. Holbrook. He was going to him now, she was sure, for he arose to leave her, saying he might not see her again before she returned to New York. She did not mention his bill. That was among the bygones, a thing never again to be talked about, and offering him her hand, she looked for an instant earnestly into his face, then without a word, hurried irom the room, while the doctor, with a sad, heavy heart, went in quest of Guy. '-'-Rafuafld iOU, _d__l. xoi^ |*!v?"_.!__d Guy's" TaEe. wrrxaTiiTj- rooscrr-oungrrm* lhan it had beiore since he left the doctor with Maddy Clyde. Yes, refused me, as I might have known she would," was the doctor's replv. spoken so naturally that Guy looked up quickly to see if he really did not care. But the expression of the face belied the calmness of the voice; and, touched with genuine pity, Guy asked the cause of the refusal���"preference for anyone else, or what?" "No, there was one whom she preferred. She merely did not like me well enough to be my wife, that was all," the doctor said, and then he tried to talk of something else; but it would not do. The wound was yet too fresh and sore to be covered up, and in spite of himself the bearded chin quivered and the manly voice shook as he bade good-by to Guy, and then went gallopine down the avenue. Great was the consternation among the doctor's patients when it was known that their pet physician--the one in whose skill they had so much confidence���was going to Europe, where in Paris he could perfect himself in his profession. Some cried, and among them Agnes; some said he knew enough already; some tried to dissuade him from his purpose; some wondered at the sudden start, while only two knew exactly why be was going���Guy and Maddy; the former approving his decision and lending his influence to make his tour abroad as pleasant as possible; and the latter w��eping bitterly as she thought how she bad sent him away, and that if aught befell him on the sea or in that distant land, she would be held amenable. Once there came over her the wild impulse to bid bim stay, to say that she would be his wife; but, ere the rash act was done, Guy came down to the cottage, and Maddy's resolution gave way at once. It would be difficult to tell the ex- J act nature of Maddy's liking for Guy ' at that time. Had lie offered himself to her she would probably have refused him even more promptly than she did the doctor; for, to all intents an'* purposes, he was, in her estimation, the husband of Lucy Atherstone. As such, there was no harm in making him her paragon of all male excellence; and Guy would have felt flattered could he have known how much he was in that young girl's thoughts. But now lor a few days he had a rival, for Maddy's thoughts were all given to the doctor, who came down to see her once before starting for Europe. She did not cry while he was there, but her voice was strange and hoarse as she gave him messages for Lucy Atherstone; and all that day her face was white and sad, as are the faces of those who come back from burying their dead. Only once after the party did she go up to Aikenside, and then, summoning all her fortitude, she gave back to Guy the bracelets and the necklace, telling him she ought* not to wear them; that ornaments as rich as these were not for her; that her grandmother did not wish her to keep them, and he must take them back. Guy saw she waa in earnest, and much against his will he received again the ornaments he had so gladly purchased. "They would do for Jessie when she was older," Maddy said; but Guy thought it very doubtful whether Jessie would ever have them. They were something he had bought Ior Maddy, something she had worn, and as such they were too sacred to be given to another. So he laid them away beside the picture guarded so carefully from everyone. Two weeks afterward Aikenside presented again a desolate, shut-up appearance, for Agnes, Maddy and Jessie had returned to New York; Agnes to continue the siege whicli, in despair of winning the doctor, she had commenced against a rich old bachelor, who had a house on Madison Square; and Maddy to her books, wliich erelong obliterated, in a measure, tlie bitter memory oi all that had transpired during her winter vacation.

PINK PILLS WILL CURE RHEUMATISM. Every Form of the Disease Yields To This Blood Building Remedy- Tt is easy to make the statement that a medicine will cure rheumatism, but the rheumatic sufferer must have more than mere statements���he must have both reasons and proof. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cure all forms of rheumatism. Here is the reason: Rheumatism is a disease of the blood. Every dose of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills actually make new, rich, red blood���This new blood drives out the poisonous acids, loosens the ���idling joints, and rheumatism is banished. Thousands have testified to the truth of these statements, and lere is further fresh proof. Mr. Haoel Mnntigny, of St. Jerome, Que., ���ays: "For many years I was a vic- *.im of rheumatism and was almost a cripple. My work made it necessary 'or me to be on my feet a good bit if the day, but my limbs became so swollen and tne pain so agonizinp 'hat I was forced to stop work. I '.ried remedy after remedy but nothing gave me relief and I began to think I would never get better. At Inst I was persuaded to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. In less than a month I noticed a slight change in my condition. I continued the Pills for three months and at the end of this time the swelling had disappeared; every pain and ache had left me and I felt better in every way. I was completely cured and once more able to go about my work with ease. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are certainly worthy of all the praise I can give them." Thousands write giving just as strong proof of the value of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills���not only as a cure for rheumatism, but as a oure for all the ailments finding their root in jad blood, such as anaemia, heart palpitation, indigestion, kidney trouble, headache and backache, disordered nerves, etc. Dr. Williams' Pinn Pills are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.

Stir over tbe fire until the flour is a rich brown; then add one onion chopped fine and wben tbat bas fried a little (but before It browns) add two tablespoonfuls of tomatoes. Let It stew a little with the saucepan covered ou a slow fire; then when the tomatoes have melted down add two cups of hot water; season to taste with salt, pepper nnd cayenne. Let It stand a few minutes before dinner; then put In the shrimps, one or two cans, according to the number of guests. The shrimps will break if put in too early.

Lay two good sized pieces of bacon into a hot frying pan and cook to a crisp, hut do not burn. Add to these drippings half an onion sliced fine and brown; then add half a cup of tomatoes and the rice. Season with cayenne pepper and salt and stew together until it bas all blended.

Stir occasionally and let all the juice of the meat boll out When It begins to get dry stir It till it browns. Wben it ls of a nice brown color, sprinkle in the saucepan about one teaspoonful of flour. When that Is brown, move it off tbe hot fire ��o that it will not burn and add three or four good sized onions sliced nnd three or four large tablespoonfuls of tomatoes. Let It all smother with the cover on the saucepan, stirring once ln awhile till the onions and tomatoes are all melted to a rich gravy; then add two teaspoonful!. of boiling watct and season to taste and let It boll about one hour more. A tiny bit ol garlic adds flavor if you like it. OF The Eagle on the Coins.

Corsicans reverence the dead, and a feature In a funeral is tbe "improvisa- tores," women whose business It is to improvise prose-poetry to the mourners. Often this improvising is wonderfully beautiful and breathes the true feeling of sorrow. The "death hunters" attend funerals and afterward wrestle with the mourners. If a relative of the deceased gets tbe better in tbe combat it is assumed that his affection for the departed relative was absolutely genuine. Wben the corpse leaves the house, the women gather at an upper window and, tearing out handfuls of their hair, throw It on the coffin. The rich hire women mourners who scratch their faces and are paid In proportion to the injuries they inflict on themselves ln their paroxysms of grief.

Queen Victoria had eight maids ol honor, of whom two were always in waiting, but Queen Alexandra's known desire for a less stately life has prompted her to reduce the number to four. Queen Alexandra delights to surround herself with quite young, bright and clever people, and all four maids are still in their early youth. The tradition is that these young women invariably marry well. Their position at court brings them into contact with highly eligible partners, and an old custom dating back for centuries prompts their royal mistress to provide a dowry of ��1,000 on their wedding day. The marriage of one of the maids of honor is a great event in the London season. When the Queen holds a drawing- room for the presentation of debutantes and those who have entree at court her maids walk in the royal M0NARCHS IN EXILE. The Agricultural College, Tokio, re cently announced that it had discov ed a method of making pulp fron bamboo grass, sasa, for which thi highest results are claimed.

England the Haven of Political Refugees and Royal Fugitives. England has always been the haven of political refugees and royal pretenders and as a rule they have shown their appreciation of the country's hospitality by refraining from criticizing their hosts or saying anything that might jeopardize their position as mere tolerated outsiders. But the Duke of Orleans overstepped the bounds some years ago and made a violent and uncalled for attack on the late Queen Victoria. In the end, writes the London correspondent of Town and Country, he was obliged to leave the country and did nut return until he made a most abject apology. This little incident haa not endeared him to the British people, who look upon him as a person of no account. But since his return lie has behaved very well and has lived the life of an ordinary country gentleman, amusing himself intermittently with the issue of a pronunciamento to "his people" or a little North Pole trip.

This applies also to the state concerts, which are most formal and elaborate functions, beginning at ten o'clock at night ��nd lasting two hours. They must also be in readiness at any time to play duets with the Queen, a dreadful ordeal to even great artists, as she is a brilliant player. Then there are charity visits, schools to be inspected, and a multitude of royal duties. In all of which the Queen is accompanied by her ladies. At all these functions the Queen's maids are almost painfully alert to anticipate the slightest wish of their mistress. At the concerts thev do not stand, "but sit immediately behind the Queen and royal princesses. At state balls they occupy the same position. They relieve Her Majesty of her bouquet or her fan if necessary, and adjust her great ermine cloak or sable wraps when draughty corridors are traversed or on the staircases. They are in attendance at all state and public ceremonies, and when driving, as to the opening of a charity bazaar, to the railway station and other places), one of the girls has a seat in a carriage immediately preceding that of the Queen. The duties of these four young ladies in waiting begin immediately after Her Majesty's breakfast. One or more of them assist Miss Knollys in answering the mass of correspondence, which requires the ability of a linguist. Then they must be in readiness to sing or to play if required, or ti take expeditions on horseback, an exercise of whicli Her Majesty is fond, and they must necessarily have a good seat and be adept whips. Thev must be skilled in some of Her Majesty's special fads, such as wood-carving, fine art needlework, spinning and poker work. They must b3 tactful at all t*'mes. amiable, and, in fact, almost absolute paragons. Their meals are taken with the lords and ladies of the household, unless they are requested to join the royal family at luncheon or dinner. Nine o'clock is the hour for dinner, nnd one oi the maids of honor just before it must place on the table at the right hand of the Queen a huge bouquet. After dinner the maids join the royal circle. They enter into the amusements and may be asked to show their accomplishments. At other courts, it is said, the regime is still the reverse of pleasant. In Austria an imperial or royal visit to the opera, theatre or some such function is regarded as a particular penance and a severe trial of the patience and endurance of the ladies in waiting. They are compelled to stand through the long performance and to bear all the discomfort with a smiling countenance, as do the acrobats and dancers who appear on the Btage. The late Empress of Austria had a decided fondness for Wagner, and it can be well imagined what was in store when either "Seigfried" or "Tristan" was sung. In Spain, too, the etiquette of the courts is very severe. "Swapped" Their Wives. A remarkable instance of two men changing wives was disclosed at the Coventry (Eng.) Police Court recently. A married woman, named Annie Saunders, charged with stealing a leg of mutton, pleaded that she did so to get food for her boy, as the man she lived with had been out of work. The man, who admitted having exchanged wives, explained that his wife obtained �� separation order from him and the custody of the children, and went to lite with another man. He allowed them to have all the furniture. He then started another home, and took the wife of the other man and her child. They lived happily, but he was out of work for twenty- two weeks. He pleaded with tears in his eyes for leniency for the woman. The Magistrate-- It is a disgraceful state of things." Witness���"Well, we cannot help that." When the woman, wbo was dejected whilst in the dock, was liberated the man caressed her and put his arm through hers to lead her out of the court. Both were poorly, though neatly, dressed. She Played Detective. Late one night at 0 house in a midland town a lady's maid, after retiring to her bedroom, was trying on a new pair of corsets. "Not such a bad little figure, after all," she soliloquized aloud, with a pretty conceit, as she saw her reflection in the glass. That same night the house was entered by burglars, who got away with a quantity of jewelry. Some weeks afterward the lady's maid was in the midst of a crowd when the remembrance of that night was brought vividly to her mind by her overhearing a man say jestingly to his companion, "Not such a bad little figure, after all." Quickly grasping the situation, the maid followed the men and informed a policeman, and so was the means of the couple being arrested. in many social phases, once as a waiter and again as a highly appreciated member ol the best society of the West end. He never forgot the kindnesses that weie extended to him during his stay here, and when he became Emperor of the French his first wish was to come over with the Empress Eugcinie and look up his old friends; which lie found it difficult to do in tbe manner he liked, lor when he came here to Windsor he was fairly tied up with court etiquette, from which it was impossible to escape. I have recently seen a letter from Louis Napoleon to an old London friend from Windsor, in which he said: "I would much sooner rundown tj you and have an evening at -���-'a where we could smoke and chat and talk over the times when you and I were sworn in as special policemen." Napoleon III. came into his empire. I doubt if the Duke of Orleans will ever do so. One cannot always tell. I used to know Peter Karageorge- vitch in the days when he was a simple, unassuming exile in Switzerland. He would talk occasionally ol. Ser- via as a place where he might with God's will have ruled, but he never expressed the slightest idea that he had an opportunity of ousting the Obrenovitch dynasty. Suddenly Alexander was murdered and Peter went in triumph in a special train direct from Geneva to Belgrade and there he is now, a real king, covered with medals, recognized by the Powers and ��� wondering how long it will be before he exchanges liis uniform fur a frock coat and the Konak, for his old villa at Genoa. Truly, the life of a pretender is not an enviable one. I huve often seen and pitied Don Carlos, the Spanish pretender, who lives ill Venice and may be seen there any day in the week, either dashing up and down the Grand Canal in a motor launch from which flies the Spanish royal flag, or walking up and down the Piazzetta when the band plays of an evening. He is invariably accompanied by a magnificent boar hound and very often by his wife. He maintains a strict little court in his modest house on the canal and there is something about him that arrests attention, for he seems to carry kingship with him at every step���a tall, handsome, dignified man, serious, stern and direct, with kindly eye and strong chin, a man whom novelists would describe as "every inch a king."

Lord Lansdowne, speaking at Shel- field recently, referred to the threats to end or mend the House of Lords, and said that what made it worse for him was that he supposed he was the leading villain of the Parliamentary piece. / They were told that the Lords might repent, but he confessed that he was \ unrepentant. They might search his luggage in vain tor anything approaching a white sheet. The case against the Lords was a frivolous one, bolstered up by frivolous arguments, and the frivolity of the indictment was ouly equalled by the absurdity of the remedy proposed. The majority of the House of Commons, particularly when the Parliament was not young, was not always a:i infallible guide to the deliberate judgment of the country. Lord Lansdowne agreed that there was room for some improvement in the House of Lords, and suggested changes in the distribution of business between the two Houses. He thought that the work of the House should be done���(as it was to a great extent now)���by a carefully selected body of peers���men representing tlieir various kinds of experience ���assisted in their deliberations by peers chosen by a less haphazard fashion than was sometimes the case in these days. Thus fortified and reorganized, lie thought the House would continue to possess the confidence which the country extended to it at present, and come to be regarded us an invaluable bulwark against rash, lii���ardous, and subversive proposals. Mourning Vagaries. "Mourni'.ig is not what it used to be," said an undertaker. "In fact, I expect to see it go out altogether in lhe next century or so. Perhaps it is just as well. No young widow, I've beard say, can wear mourning without looking like au adventuress. But in the seventeenth century widows not only wore mourning, but their lied curtains were black, and the ���sheets ..nd pillowcases had a black edging, like stationery. Even their lingerie had a mourning band. In Italy the nobles of the renaissance carried tlieir mourning as lar as their imives and forks, which had ebony nstead of ivory handles. Gray cloth .uperseded black for mourning in the tiehteentb century. The general increase in the price of wood for the past few years has had the effect of turning public attention to the timber supply in general. To many, the increase in prices is sufficiently explained by saying that there is a combine among lumber producers and manufacturers. But, independent of the possible existence of any combine, a deeper cause underlies the increase in prices, and the cause is this, that timber is becoming harder and harder for the manufacturer to get. Greater and greater economy and use of materials formerly considered as waste is being introduced into the manufacture of wood, but in spite of it all the price of logs is going up, owing to higher wages that have to be paid, greater distances the logs have to be brought and many other reasons. Not in America alone is tlie scarcity of timber being felt; it has become a world-wide question. Only seven countries in the world are now in a position to export timber. In Europe there are five, namely: Austro- Hungary, Norway, Sweden, Finland and Russia; in America there are two. namely: Canada and the United States. But Russia, Austro-Hungary ind the United States are increasing their population and developing their industries so fast that they cannot long continue to be exporting countries. The timber of Norway is threatened with excessive cutting. Germany, where the practice of forestry has been brought to the greatest perfection, has never been able to supply home demands, and is a heavy importer. Canada, Sv_eden and Finland are left, and their supply is hopelessly deficient for the world. If Canada were to attempt to supply the United States ilone. its entire timber area would be cut off and denuded in tlie course of a very few years���probably less than a decade. Various estimates of Canada's forest land have been given. Eight hundred million acres was a few years ago accepted as pretty near the truth; but considerng the damage caused by fire and other destructive agencies, it is doubtful if the ex'sting forests tiover half that area. To keep this area in its most productive state, thus enabling it to meet the demand as far as possible and to produce the largest revenue, is the problem set those in control of these areas, and the protection of the forests against fire and other dangers and their proper management under forestry methods is the only way in which this can be effected. No sane mother would wish herself treated under the conditions of medicine or surgery of half a century ago. Why then should she give her little one the old-fashioned medicines of half a century ago, which more likely than not contain poisonous opiates that cannot cure the child, but merely drugs it" into temporary insensibility. Baby's Own Tablets is a modern medicine prepared with all the care and skill of modern medical science.

He won the love and band of Zach Taylor's daughter by his distinguished presence tn tbe saddle, as well as by bis intrepidity at the cannon's mouth. When secretary of war he noticed that only a few officers ln the service were capable horsemen an4 issued an order something like this: "A liberal reward will be paid to any officer or private in the army who will offer a satisfactory device for keeping our soldiers from falling out of their saddles. Communications to the secretary of war will be regarded as confidential." Captain George Horatio Derby, one of tbe leading army engineers of bis day, used to write humorous and witty stories over the pen name of John Phoenix. He received a copy of Secretary Davis' order while improving the harbor of San Diego, CaL, and Immediately forwarded the most Intricate and accurate designs of his plan for keeping officers and men fa the .addle. To tbe seat o. each officer's "pants" he attached a bull ring, and another bull ring waa attached to the saddle. The two bull rings were to be lashed together when the officer mounted his steed. "If taat doesn't bold, nothing will," wrote Phoenix to the secretary. Davis waa furious when he got this proposition and Immediately ordered that Captain Derby should be court martialed for "official levity.** The secretary felt that tbe army bad been disgraced and wanted Derby severely punished.

In tbe early part of the nineteenth century Vauxhall was the resort of ma*oy respectable persons, especially of those who came up from the country to see London sights. During one senson it was Infested by a band of rcuRhs, who made It tbelr occupation to Insult and molest the most quiet, decent people, especially any whom they guessed to be country visitors. Tbey became such a nuisance that Beveral men about town, among whom were I_ord Alvanley and Keppel Craven, laid a plot to get rid of them. Tbey hired Mendoza, the famous prize fighter, and dressed him up as a dean, with a shovel hat and apron. Another prize fighter, a short man. was dressed as a middle aged lady and passed as tbe dean's wife, and ono evening they were seated at Vauxhall In a consplciioiu position to watch the fireworks. It was not long before th* old fashioned, countrified pair attracted the attention of tbe gang, who assailed tbem with erery kind of coarse) raillery and Insult, all of whicli they bore very meekly. At length one of the *r*ersecntora, growing bolder by Impunity, stepped op to the dean and squirted an orange Into bis eye.
