The mail service in this lection u  simply rotten There are about 2fl  white men wintentiK m here, and wc  have had no papers since last October. The mail carrier from Qi  nolle to Fraser lake, who alio brings  the Stuart lake mall, brinus papers  when he cannot find any paste ii (ten  or freight to haul. The last trip before Xmas, he unloaded five sacks of  papers at the last minute, after netting  them from the rJostoffice at Qi  to make room for freight, so you see  we ure at the mercy of the. mail carrier.  ..This is a fine country, (rood land  fine climate, about the same as the  Boundary, only the land is better.  AU kinds of veeetables crow finely,  and the natural vegetation of the  country is immense. Rose bushes  and berry bushes grow as high as  num's head.

Statistics of divorce show that
the highest rate of divorce to
population is found in Algeria,
that next to Algeria is Japan,
and next to Japan is the United
States. The figures for the three
countries are: Algeria, 288 divorces a year to each 100,000 of
population; Japan, 214; the
United States, 73. Next to the
United States is Switzerland, with

In the south of France is a concrete
arch  bridge  known  as  the Pont du
G?rd, which was erected in the year
56 B. C.    The concrete in this was
not composed   of crushed   stone   or
other small  aggregate  of the   variety
now   employed   in   concrete  bridge
work, but was of the old  style, consisting of alternate layers of large and
small stones, gravel,   etc., and of ce-
mentitious  materials.      Vitruvius describes the materials  and   methods in
use before the Christian era, and other
writers, like Alberti, in 1345 and Pal-
ladio in 1570, accurately describe the
methods  which  the  "ancients" (as
they  called  them)   employed,    "of
using boards laid on  edge  and filling
the space between   with  cement and
all sorts   of  small  and   large  stones
mingled   together."    It   is  very improbable that the Pont du Gard would
have withstood the rigors  of  climate
of the northern United States, but its
actual state of preservation, as well as
that of many other specimens  of ancient  concrete  work,   proves that if
modern work ,is  honestly  executed it
will many times outlast any reasonable
borld  period, so   that  a  very   small
yearly  sinking  fund  per  cent,   is all
that is required for  properly designed
and erected concrete work.

THE NEW EDUCATION
It is niot-t   true that a farthing
candle  gives  more   light, for domestic   purposes,   thau   tbe most
brilliant   star; and   yet   we   are
urged from our cradles to " hitch
our wagons   to a star."    Iu other
words, to aim at only the highest
in   life.    The   small   hoy   is   encouraged   to   set   his   mind   on
achieving   tho   highest   possible
positions, or   amassing the greatest possible number  of dollars-
only arrival at the top  to suffice.
Vain hopes, idle dreams of greatness in name and fame, doomed to
such disappointment in later life,
when  dear  desires  are not realized and we have  to  perforce accept  the  mediocre  only,   or  the
obscure.     The   wee  girl   who is
taught and trained to   shine as a
star, by   an   ambitious but   im.
practicable  mother,   must   often
accept the inevitable  position of
mar-Keu  «»«._.
tional systems of the world, over
the old ideas that obtained in the
past.
Lord Roberts, the  hero of the
British   army,    referred   to   the

English public schools.    The old j

which maintained that education
was to make the boy a gentleman
and a scholar, the girl a lady and
a  social  belle,   are not sufficient
these days of greater, broader international activity. A man must
be useful, too, a good citizen and
acquainted  with  affairs.    A girl
must be accomplished and independent,    The top of the  tree is
not the only spot where the sun
shines.     The   easily   contented,
medium  ambitious achieve more
victories than   the  idealist   ever
dreams   of.    In   this Canada of
ours there is room for many peoples—opportunities for the  millions  such   as few  countries possess—and when   England  ceases
from sending  out her worst, ill-
prepared   for  the   strenuous life
that  is   lived   in   the West, and
only forwards her best  and those
fitted   by   education    and   early
training  for  the  useful, and not
spoiled and   pampered  to expect
the unattainable topmost branches
of the  tree, the schools of England  will   fill  some of   the best
positions  in  Canadian  life with
men, who get what they aim for,
because they do not aim too high.
The new system  of education
in England will benefit this great
Northern land and  be  the direct
cause of a  firmer  bond between
the Mother country  and  her oldest and greatest dominion beyond

H. Bunting left on Monday last to  ��ake charge of the work being done  at the Boundary Mining and Exploration company's coal mine near Midway.    There has just been issued by the  Ontario Department of Mines the  ireport which was made by Mr. A. A.  Coles, M. E., upon his return   from  fthe Porcupine district on December  20, last year. As there was at least a  ifoot of snow on the ground at the  Ftime of his visit, Mr. Coles saw only  ' some of the best known properties,  'these being the Wilson, Tiller, Gil-  [ lies, Hollinger, Davidson and Banner-  Lman.  On all of these  I  saw free gold  in place," says   Mr.   Coles.     "The  ���veins are composed for the   most part  .of rusty   quartz  with   a wall rock of  Lschist.    In southern Tisdale,   on the  Wilson, Miller, Gillies and Hollinger  the veins run northeast and southwest, and stand up in ridges above  the adjacent schist. Up to the north,  on the Bannerman and Davidson, the  veins are not so prominent. I was  told that much of the schist adjoining  the veins will also run in gold values.  Several of the veins that I saw will  average 25 feet in width, and the  large one on the Wilson I was told  would average 75 in width for at least  500 feet.  "Owing to the lateness of the  season when.these claims were staked,  very little work has yet been done on  them, but all the signs so far are  favorable for a good gold camp.  The rush has already started;  from 75 to 100 are getting off the train  at 222 daily, and this number will undoubtedly be greatly increased after  the holidays.  Options on some of the best properties have been granted to Messrs.  O'Brien and Timmins and large  forces of men are now asking their  way in.

J  The "history ot the last Fenian  attempt to invade Ireland is recalled bv the death, of Capt. Augustine F. Costello, which occurred  recently in New York. In 1867  the Fenians chartered the brigan-  tine Jacknel, commanded by John  F. Kavauagb, an ex-brigadier of  the American Civil War. Some  50 Fenians, who had seen service  in the civil war, boarded the vessel off Sandy Hook. The cargo  consisted of three guns and 5,000  stand of arms concealed in piano  cases, sewing machine cases and  wine barrels. When at sea the  vessel hoisted the green flag with  the Fenian emblem of the sunburst, changed her name to Erin's  Hope, and made for Ireland instead of Cuba. The expedition  ended in,disastrous failure. When  the brigantine had been 60 days  at sea the provisions were running  short, some of the party were  landed at Dungarveu, while the remainder, with the arms, returned  to New York. The return voyage  occupied 47 days, and only bread  and water remained in the way  of provisions. The men who had  landed in Ireland were arrested,  and Messrs. Warren and Costello  were tried for treason and felony.  They were Irishmen by birth but  naturalized Americans. Warren  was sentenced to 15 vears and  Costello to 12 years' penal servitude, but an amnesty was granted  some time afterwards. The trial  of these men led to an alteration  in the English law as to perpetual  allegiance, and the Naturalization Act was passed.���Vancouver  World.  EASE FOR PILES!  "I Used to Suffer, but-  This is the experience of a lady who  used to suffer from this terrible ail  merit, but found a cure. The writer  is Mrs. E. Boxall, of 97 Scott St., St.  Thomas. She says: "I consider it my  duty to write of the benefits derived  from using Zam-Buk. For some  months I was a constant sufferer from  bleeding piles. I used a great many  ointments, but got no relief until I  tried Zam-Buk. It cured me, and I  have had no return of the trouble.  * ��� ��^wiaed several  C RETURN OF THE JEWS  The proclamation of the constitution of Turkey has thrown  open the doors of Palestine to  the incoming Jews trom all parts  of the world. In Jerusalem one-  fourth of the population of 100,-  000 now belong to the Jewish  faith, while at Jaffa, I'iberias,  Safed and Hafia Jews are reckoned by tens of thousands.  Almost the whole extensive plain  of Esdraelon has been bought by  them.  Their prosperous colonies  spread from Dan to Beersheba  and even south to the outskirts of  Egypt. Thousands are escaping  from Persia to find shelter and  protection in the holy land. While  every ship from Odessa carries  hundreds of them.  A LONG RIDE  The Russian minister of war  has received a report of the arrival in Riepin, Plotak province,  of Lieutenant Shikutak, after a  ride of 2.403 miles without a  change of horses. Both horses  and rider finished in excellent  condition. Lieutenant Shikutak,  using an ordinary officer's mount,  rode from Eiepin to St. Petersburg to. attend the annual festival of the military order of St.  George, of which he is a chevalier, and returned, averaging a  little over 48 miles per day. He  was 50 days en route.  MONSTER AIRSHIP  Count Zeppelin, whose aerial  flights in dirigible balloons have  attracted world-wide attention, is  planning a monster airship capable of carrying 300 persons, and  which it is proposed to use in a  passenger service to be established between Hamburg and London.  A service also will be maintained  from Hamburg to Cologne and  Baden Baden.  The craft will be 940 feet iu  length and about 85 feet in diameter. It will be driven by eight  motors.  AN AMAZING GUN  Full particulars of the 13 5  inch gun for the new battleships  are interesting. It weighs eighty  to eighty-five tons, is fifty calibre long, and fires a shell of 1,250  pounds. It should be able to perforate 15 inches of Krupp steel  armor with ease at seven miles'  distance, which is the limit of  visibility at sea for gunnery purposes in fine weather.  Mount Rainier is to be featured  by the advertising matter of the  Milwaukee railway this vear, and  it is predicted that before long it  will be the goal of as many tourists as Pike's Peak and other well  known western mountains.

A  contributory case of piles is often con-  stiptation, and a mild laxative will  greatly aid the operation of Zam-Buk.  For fistula, infiammed patches, and  sores due to blood posoning, etc., Zam-  Buk is equally effective. It is a soothing, cooling balm, which stimulates  the cells beneath the epidermis and  epithelium to natural action. It re  lieves the tension which in the case of  piles causes such acute agony, and in  all respects will be found eminently  satisfactory.

The company owns the coal rights of 2,4S8 acres of land and has options on  three square miles additional. Work has been done in development continuously since  September 2, and a tunnel is now being driven to cross-cut three seams which show on  the surface. Coal can be delivered from the mouth of this tunnel to the C. P. K.  tracks below by gravity.  Development work done thus far is as follows:  One prospecting tunnel on the surface of the seam, 50 feet in length.  One shaft and drifts, about 45 feet, all in the coal seam.  One shaft and incline, following the proven seam to the depth of 80 feet.  An analysis of the surface coal returns 66 per cent carbon and only 3 percent ash.  The Company owns pther properties, including fruit lands, mineral claims,  options on mineral claims, mines and timber limits. Its coal holdings alone are  considered worth'more than its issued capital stock, An investment in this stock at  the present price should be immensely productive.
