Sir,���������during the progress of the sale of work in the Cumberland Hall last week, a person was guilty of soliciting subscriptions lo purchase a piano for ihe U. & C. Hospital. When people attend a function which is for the support of a worthy institution, they do so with the intention of spending what tbey can afford there, but do not expeci to be " held up " by anyone for subscriptions to provide an unnecessary luxury for a public hospital. If the persons in charge of the "begging" list bad the welfare of the hospital at hearr, they would see ihat the large amount of money collected was applied to necessities and comforts. What about a door covering and coat of kalsomine fur the woman's ward, some fencing and a bit of garden would also be a decided improvement to the outside of the building.���������Yours &c��������� Observer. r j Cook Stoves and Ranges Better get our Prices before you Buy.

CHASE'S SYRUP of LINSEED AND TERPENTINE FOR AILMENTS OF THE THROAT AND LUNGS Tou cannot be too particular in buy- in-*; medicine. It may be a question ot life or death. There are so many cough and cold remedies that there ls a tendency to be careless In the selection of treatment, and yet what is more dangerous ��������� than a cold? You would not think of taking any medicine that might be offered for heart trouble or kidney disease, and yet far more people die from the result of neglected colds than from these ailments. INSIST ON HAVING A MEDICINE OF RELIABILITY AND REPUTATION. SUCH AS DR. CHASE'S SYRUP OF LINSEED AND TURPENTINE. This great family medicine "has stood the teBt of years, and never disappointed those who put their trust In it as a cure for croup, bronchitis, whooping cough, asthma, coughs, colds and throat troubles. Do not be satisfied with substitutes and imitations, for they lack the curative, powers which have given Dr. Chase's Syrup of Linseed and Turpentine its world-wide reputation. MRS. R. D. TURNER, Broadview, N. W. T., writes: "We have seven children and have used Dr. Chase's Syrup of Linseed and Turpentine for every one of them, _ and with good results. We get four bottles at a time and find it a good remedy to break up cold on the lungs." MRS. A. A. VAN BUSKIRK, Robinson street, Moncton, N. B., writes: "For years I "have used Dr, Chase's Syrup of Linseed and Turpentine for my children when they have colds In tha winter. I first used it with my daughter, who suffered from a severe form of asthma. The least exposure to cold would lay her up and she would nearly suffocate for want of breath. I must say I found it to be a most satisfactory, treatment; and It has entirely cured her. It seems to go direc4 to the diseased parts and bring trie desired relief."

If farmers once took time to think of these matters, there would undoubtedly be a great improvement. Windmills are now both cheap and common, and there is no reason why well-to-do farmers should not have a. water system in their houses, with all the conveniences and advantages which residents in tho cities enjoy from the water works systems there established. ' ' -i Though not quite so convenient, the dry earth closet is so cheap and so satisfactory from tho sanitary point of view that no fanner cun discover a reasonable excuse for refusing to adopt it. A well laid cement concrete floor will be found by far the easiest to keep in a ck'an and wholesome condition. A stout box suitable size, mounted on runner- and with a etrocig hook at ono end to which a horso may be attached.makes a roccptablo that can bo conveniently drawn to the field or barnyard to be emptied. This box may be made wholly or in part of sheet! iron, and if the-bottom be semi-circular in form a kettle of hot water will be found sufficient to loosen the frozen contents in winter. Galvanized iron buckets, larger at the top than at the bottom, are also easy to empty in winter. The naturo of the receptablc is largely a matter of convenience; the essential features of the system are the storing and uso of a plentiful supply of dry earth and the emptying of the receptable regularly. If the contents be spread thinly ovor the surface of a field, they will be decomposed in a very few. days with no danger to tho public health. Ashes should not be used as a substitute for earth, and road dust is very littlo better. The surface soil of a field or garden that has been frequently cultivated will be found just the thing. If a little coarse or lumpy it may be run through a gravel screen. It is always advisable to keep a good supply on hand, ia it becomes drier and better with ago when stored in a bin. If tha man who has hitherto been careless in this particular will adopt and maintain a proper sanitary system in connection with his closet, he will find himself gaining largely, not only in self-respect, but in the respect of his family and of the strangers within his gates. Furthermore, ho may thereby escape tho j-ravages���������of��������� such���������discases^-as-typhoid fever, which are so frequently traced "to the use of contaminated water.

By far tho groater number buve to bo utterly ���������condemned, and it seems very evident that a great improvement ia our w.ater supplies is necessary.

The country north of it, which is tributary to the Regina, Qu'Appolle & Long Lake Railway, is absorbing quite a number of settlers. Prince Albert is improving and his excellent prospects of becoming a very fine town. Calgary has grown immensely, 'and has a very promising future before it. The C. P. R. have made substantial progress with irrigation works in the vicinity of Calgary, which are intended to serve a million and a half of acres., I saw,a 55-foot cutting in connection with the main irrigation canal, and the soil was a fine rich loam. How much deeper that rich soil goes I cannot tell. There will be three secondary canals aggregating in distance 115 miles, in addition to the main channel. Then thero "wiir'Tre^i^^ ing a total length of 900 miles. Tha area of land to be served by the irrigation works will support, it is computed, a farming population of 250,000 souls. -. "Subsidiary to the area watered by the irrigation works are another million and a half of grazing lands of the best quality. I ran up from Calgary to Edmonton. The latter is steadily growing in importance. All along the intervening distance are established towns and settlements that aro rapidly growing in importance. Thero is a numerous _ettle- ment0 of Galicians extending eastward from Edmonton, and comprising perhaps about 15,000 souls. The othor settlers speak vory highly ��������� of thorn.

EARN A Comfortable Living WITH A Chatham Incubator Poultry raising with a Chatham Incubator is a very profitable and easily managed occupation. Unless you want to go into it extensively it need take but very little ol'your time. Government reports show that the demand for chickens in Canada is greatly in excess of the supply and Great Britain is always clamoring for, more. That means a steady market and good prices I'or chickens. You cannot raise chickens successfully with a setting hen. She is wasting time setting when she should be laying. While she is hatching and brooding a few chickens she could be laying five or six dozen eggs. The percentage of chickens she hatches is much less than that produced by the Chatham Incubator. It will pay you to own a Chatham Incubator. Chatham Incubators contain every improvement of importance in Incubator construction that has been produced. They are made of thoroughly seasoned wood, with two walls, case within case. .Between these walls mineral wool is packed forming the very best insulation. Each piece of the case is mortised and grooved and screwed, making the whole as solid as a rock. Chatham Incubators are equipped with scientifically perfect regulators which are an infallible means of regulating the temperature. No cash.to pay until October, 1905. We will start you raising poultry -for-profit~with-a-Ghatham-Incubator��������� without one cent of money from you until next Pall. That means that you can take off seven or eight hatches and make considerable money out of the Incubator before the first payment becomes due. We couldn't make this offer if we were not certain that if you accept it you will get complete satisfaction, if we were not positive that the Chatham Incubator will pay you a handsome yearly income. This is a straightforward offer. We make it to show our supreme confidence in the Chatham I,ncubator. We want you lo accept this offer as we are sure of the satisfaction our Incubator will give.

After loftily, ignoring each other for thirty years, the rival houses were at last forced to take intimate cognizance one of each other. It came about naturally enough. John Carr and Luke Phillips, the present beads of tbe families, had been iu college days the chosen friends of Billy Bluff, who now, as the famous Senator Bluff, was in Harrowby on purpose to visit them. A great card was the ���������enator. Neither of the enemies could afford to give him up wholly to ihe other. As he knew nothing of the unfriendliness, they did not choose to enlighten him. Contrariwise, they made tacit and temporary truce, speaking civilly to-each other in his presence and even sitting at each other's board- to do him cordial honor. This was less awkward than it might have been, since there had never been a violent breach���������only a drawing away and looking to the other side of the street or over heads in casual encounters. The quarrel1 was over the chc-ice of a minister, and, of course, all the bitterer for that. The Carrs had been worsted, and-; though they still came to St Michael's and duly supported all its good works, they took no part in anything else. Therefore -everybody felt that their grudge was the greatest. Luke Phillips pretty well ran tbe ministers and quite ran the church. A masterful man, with a daughter of his own stripe, he could not very well help it. Oriana, the daughter, was indeed so much a chip off the old block her fine name made part of the comedy. She wa8 twenty-five, tall and stout, with dark eyes nnd a fine carnage, to say nothing of the way she wore her clothes. Almost every Sunday her fingers fairly itched to get bold of Louise Carr's ribbons. * ~"'Couise_waIThe~younger7by five years^ sweet faced and sunny tempered, but woefully careless as to how she looked. So she had clean clothes and whole it never bothered her in the least what else they were or were not. She certainly did look odd in plain coat sleeves when every other woman iu church had dangling, baggy puffs and frills all over her arms. Perhaps if ho had not seen ber first in a party frock with no sleeves to speak of Senator Bluff might not have given her a second thought. He was a bachelor and as rich as he was distinguished. Gossip hinted, too, that he was looking for a wife. Gossip snid also in a way not to. be gainsaid he would look a long time before finding anybody better suited to the position thnn Oriana. Orlaua herself was quito of that opinion, although of cohrso she kept it unspoken. Senator Bluff was" certnluly impressed ut their llrst mooting. He insisted upon putting ilp at tlie hotel, although dining or breakfasting every day with his old col logo chums. Limlso was away at hor grandmother's when ho enmo. Thus for a wholo week Oriana had a clour.field. Thou tlio Grays gave a party, nnd Loulso danced nt It, a slim white wraith moving on winged foot, with yellow hair tumbling -all about bur rosy fnco and ovory llbor vibrant with joy In tho music and Iho rhythmic motion.

Capping tho climax, ho brought thoin along with him to dlno at tho Phillips house, saying airily to Orliina, who wiih mistress of it: "You see, I tnko your father at his word, IIo Hiild tho hot we waa mine whllo T stayed.'-' "You did quito right," Orlnna nnid ewvotjy, rwtsiuiicd by n glance nt Lou- lt������e, 'Hits kit J hud ou a Udcd bine mug- ham two yours out of dote, and hor hair wns positively stringy. No doubt tho senator thought of hor an only n llttlo girl Jn tlio awkward ago, heueo In nei'il ot Npccml foiiHiilfi'iunm, >jo mnn in Mm souses would look at hor In comparison wllli Oriana, a stntely vision in canary yellow gauze, with dark rod roses nodding against her bare breast and nestled nmld tho darkness of her hair. Louise gar.ed st her Joyously. "You ���������re nhv,,.vri hi'iunlul, Mi** 'Aua, Tonight you are a queen," she snid, then went to dinner, quite unconscious of ber own rumpled appearance. She bad smoothed hor hair * bit and stuck' a spray 6* sweet peas in tne low coil so the flowers drooped against her soft, white neck. Young Luke Phillips, who took her out, looked at her and patronizingly decided tbat sbe was a dowdy. Before dinner ended he changed his mind. Senator Bluff/managed somehow to set Louise telling' stories and acting them. She had tl^e rare and heavenly gift of losing herself entirely in whatever she did. So. utterly neglecting her plate, she was by turns the minister's wife making a pseudo pastoral visit, her grandmother's companion. French Peter at tbe tollgate or Miss Jane sowell, the milliner, with HaiTowby's hats on her conscience. In vain her mother frowned, sighed, tried to stop her. A creature of whim and impulse, Louise would not be stayed. As a consequence Luke'junior went back to the parlor pretty well enslaved. Oriana saw it, with rejoicing, although a fortnight back sho would have been deadly angry. Sbe was clear sighted. She had lost the senator beyond peradventure unless she could make him believe Louise was not free. That was a trifle ha������- ardoua, but she wno ready for hazards. So, while Louisfe sang in a sweet, untrained voice the few trite songs she knew, Oriana tried her charms. Gently of course! She fairly purred in Senator Bluff's ear ber joy that the family feud.at which she barely hinted, was to be so beautifully healed. It was a secret as yet, but Luke would establish himself in another year; he was fresh from college, being Oriana's junior. Wouldn't the senator come back next summer for tbe wedding? She hoped so, most devoutly. Louise was such a dear, the Phillipses did not in the least mind that she would bring her husband only herself. Senator Bluff was genial, but evasive. He also was clear sighted. By something approaching intuition he had looked into Louise's heart and found its deeps untroubled, untenanted. But he was not very sorry for. what Oriana bad said. It gave him exactly the opening he was longing for. So the next day, as he stood with Louise beside the raspberry thicket, helping her pick berries for lunch, he said offhandedly: "Say, ladybird, if you want to get married, don't worry yourself over ways and means. I'll tend to all that"- i!IndeM!lXmis-*LMJ&^^ smile. "You're taking a big contract, senator. You'll have to provide everything���������from the bridal veil to the bridegroom.

For the benefit of those who wished to consult them they were exhibited in a public place, each reader being called upon to pay a small coin called a gazetta; hence the word "gazette." The earliest English newspaper was the Weekly News, first published in 1022.

There is very little simplicity and certainly nothing that is economical In the lingerie of today. The ordinary seam bus been banished in favor of the entre-deux. Transparent yokes of Valenciennes, with medallions and embroideries, are introduced on to the nightgowns, which no longer boast of collars and frills. They are cut as low squares and edged with lace, the more long shouldered the more fashionable, and it is quite the mode to mix laces to any extent, mingling other sorts with ths favorite valenciennes.

At the farewell banquet given to Lord and Lady Minto, the retiring Governor-General said: , "I can assure Your Worship that if during my term of office I have been fortunate enough in the fulfilment of my duties to earn for myself the appreciation of the people of the Dominion, I ask for no greater reward and now I may say the same 'for Lady Minto. Her interests have always centred largely in the welfare of this country and the happiness of its everjKiay life, and it will always be a delight to her to hear of the further success of work which she has very much at heart. "But to-night, Your Worship, there is a 'rift' in the lutfe.- I now have come to say good-bye. I have run my race in Canada, the awkward fences and the nasty turns are things of the past, and I cannot ride it over again. It is not for me to say whether the course has been easy or difficult, but it has certainly been full of interest, and, after all, gentlemen, it has only been the first heat in the great Imperial stakes which it^ rests ���������witir"the"peopTe of~the" United-Kingdom and the people of Canada to win or lose. "I hope Your Worship will absolve me from any intention of trespassing in the domain of politics, but perhaps it may not be out of place for mo to glance very lightly at thc his- dressers, and soft silk is being employed for many of the petticoats, though very little of it is seen, being hidden by the dace. Drawers, petticoats and camisoles nil in one appeal greatly to womankind, for they save trouble and are very graceful. Much depends on the' stays, though their existence should not be perceptible, and an innovation is to have the stays made to lace in front and fasten at the back. Tea gowns are diaphanous and, like lounging gowns, demand that the slipper should be embroidered to match the color of the gown, while sometimes the stockings and slippers are painted to match. Chinese embroidered slippers are a fad with kimonos. WEDDING DRESS. Gowns of a Bride aiid BridenmaltK Illustrated and Described.

"It's my constituents tory of the past six years that have who have a representative after that job. Teli me, honor bright, do you care for Luke Phillips'/" "I wouldn't have him as a gracious gift," Louise burst out. Senator Bluff smiled���������almost as "wickedly as she had done. "In that case," he said, "since I have undertaken to marry you off, I'll have to, take you myself." Louise said "Indeed!" again, but with a different Inflection. The wedding enmo off In n fortnight.

Twice within half a decade, the spectacle has been presented of a primitive civilization rebelling against the intrusion of modern methods of thought and uction. Tlie Doers in 189U fought primarily fur their religion and what it stands for in their social development. The Chinese arose in 14)00 to expel innovators upon time honored customs and ���������deals. Pertinent to the Chinese ���������question is the argument of a Chinese olbcial residing in England during the Boxer war. it is significant as nu eastern view of the west. Tho writer says; "Our civilization is the oldest in tho world. It does not follow that it ts the best, but neither, I submit, does it follow that it is the worst. On the contrary, such antiquity is, at any rate, a proof that our institutions have guaranteed to us a stability for which we search in vain among the nations of Europe. But not only is our civilization stable; it embodies, as we think, u moral order, while in yours we detect only an economic chaos. Whether your religion be better thnn ours I'do not at present dispute, but it is certain that , it has less influence on your society. You profess Christianity, but your civilization has never been Christian, wliereas ours is Confucian through and through. But to say that it is Confucian is to say that it is moral, or, at least, that moral relations are those which it primarily contemplates, whereas with you (so it seems to us) economic relations come first, and upon these you endeavor afterward to graft as much morality as thoy will admit." The Chinese and English views of the family are then compared, in tho one case the child being trained to individualism, to vunturesomeness and competition, and in the other to continue lifelong in the relations to which he is born. The Chinese lookt first to society, then to the individual. As a man begins so he ends, a member of his family group, and to this condition the whole theory and practice of his life conform. He is taught to worship his ancestors, to ��������� honor and obey his parents and to prepare himself at an early age for the duties of husband and father. Says the writer: "No man in China is isolated sav������ by his own fault. If it is not so easy for him to grow rich as with., i-you, neither is it so easy for him to -starve���������if^he-luis-n^ tS"5 compete, neither has he tbe temptation to".cheat and oppress. Free at once from the torment and the apprehension of distress, he has leisure to spare from the ac-'p-isition of the means of living for life itself. Ho htfs both the instinct and the opportunity to appreciate the gifts of na- , ture, to cultivate manners and to enter into humane nnd disinterested relations,with his fellows. Tho result is a type which wo cannot but regard as superior, both morally and aesthetically, to the great bulk of your own citizens of L'uropo. Admitting that we aro not what yon cull a progressive people, wu yot perccivo that progress may bo bought too dear. We prefer our own moral to your material oil van I ages, and we are determined to ciine, to iiiKtitu- tions which, we believe, insure us tho former even at the risk of excluding 'ourselves from the la tier."' In the opinion of this writer western people subordinate lite to wealth, lie sn.VN* "Tln'.v uro U-i-h chvorliil, lana contented, less industrious, less law- nbi'lim.''; their ocenpnt ions are nuiro unhealthy '>->th for body nml mind: they lire crowded into ci lie's and factories, divorced from nature and the ownership of the noil."

DIPLOMACY By Curra.n Kich&rd Greenley ' * Copyright, 1904, by Cunan Richud Gieenley ^1^���������H^���������I���������^^^M^^JH^^^:"^^1^^I^^I^^I^'^^1^*���������^-W^-^|- The real boss of the campaign committee leaned across the table and wagged a heavy forefinger, under Bracket's nose. "I've cinched the finest wire that was ever pulled, aud when them wire get done pullin* Bill Garret's chances are dead and rained on or my name's not Jim Stinson. I've interviewed Miss Elizabeth Heath, and she's ours." The emphatic finger stopped as Brackett sprang to his feet. "You���������you interviewed Miss Heath in my favor?" "Yes. Why not? She's a power, she 1b, with them fellows' wives down In the Tenth ward, en she's a lady right, you bet" Brackett dropped limply into the chair behind him, while Stinson poured out the history of his call upon Miss Heath, the president of the Hypatia, in a mixture of slang plentifully sprinkled with "sez I" and "sez she." Stinson took much glory to himself that he Bhould have thought of this clever stroke just at the critical point of the campaign. Miss Heath's influence in certain quarters was unbounded. Down in the Tenth ward, where the tall tenements gloom above the river, the little children of the poor watched for her coming, and the tired mothers told her all their trials and troubles, all their simple ambitions and little joys, finding a ready sympathy. Stinson had heard of Miss Heath through that channel, and it was to those poor, tired mothers that he looked for a controlling voice in the vote that would go up from the Tenth ward. Stinson had also counted on the lever wielded by Miss Heath as president of the Hypatia, the woman's club that led not only in the city, but in the state federation. The federation's interests once aroused and its influence brought to bear would mean a powerful leavening at worli~for Tis^anHfroS^nT^norof the state to the other. All this and more he poured into the unheeding ear of Brackett, whose mind was engrossed with the one thought, the intolerable shame that this mnn should have appealed to Eliacibeth Heath in his name. Beyond all considerations of the governor's office, of his political future, his mind reeled with the intensity of this one thought. Stluson's last words as he stood in the doorway recalled him: "I told her that you would call in a few days nnd discuss the matter further. She seemed right willing to tako a hnnd after she had chewed the rag a bit, and I saw as how a call from you would sorter clinch it. Women folks has to bo made up to. 1 reckon you know all about that? Well, so long, Mr, Governor," and Stinson was gone. John Brackett turned oil! the light nnd sat still In tlie glow of the fire.

Old Peter's shuffling steps had died away and the house was stilled. Then he heard her step upon the stair and down the hall, and Elizabeth stood before him, unchanged, except for the graver lines about the firm, sweet mouth and a deeper light in the dark eyes. Brackett grasped her hand with an almost painful force. "Yon hav������ been auite a lone -n-blle In claiming your old friends in Warn- field. Mr. Brackett." It was a merely banal greeting, but the commonplace served to place Brackett on the right footing. "Most certainly, and yet I feel that I 6h'ould apologize for this intrusion, had I not come to make apology for a greater one that was made in my name." "You allude to Mr. Stinson's call?" she laughed lightly. "Mr. Stinson does me the honor to consid-er me a force in the political situation. I assure you t nrmwiatp' tlu������ comDliiuent. as the president of the Hypatia. But as Elizabeth Heath, I must beg to decline Brackett made a slight movement toward her. "I beg you to consider the man and his total ignorance as to the enormity of what he was doing. It was a distinct shock to me to hear your name upon his lips, and"��������� "I understand,',', she replied quickly. 'Believe me, I did not connect you with it in the least. In fact, when he mentioned that you would call to discuss the matter I was very certain that you were entirely innocent of all knowledge of his errand here." Brackett flushed darkly. "I trust you will treat this incident as if it had never happened, and of course there need be no question of your support in a political sense." Here they both laughed uneasily. "So much so," she responded, "that I will use every effort to further the cause of Governor Brackett." Brackett sprang to his feet, his dark face aglow. "Elizabeth!" Miss Heath held up a warning hand. "MrV Brackett, fifteen years have come mid crone since anv man haa Eeio* en* THE LAST BUFFALO HUNT ON THE SOURIS PLAINS (Walpole Murdoch, Hartney, in Winnipeg- Free Press.) The last great buffalo hunt enjoyed in the west took place forty years ago and nearly all the half breed population then in Manitoba engaged in the chase. Some of those who took part in that wild raid oh the buffalo are now residing in Alberta and delight to recall the remembrance of the great hunt with the various adventures connected with the occasion. In the fall of 1864 the buffaloes had congregated in immense numbers, south of the Turtle mountains on the great plains east of the Souris river. The hunti"ng party wa.s large 'and consisted of men, women and children, with nearly a thousand carts and hundreds of Indian ponies. As the hostile Sioux were abroad the party had to keep well together while outriders were stationed at different points for the purpose of watching the movements of tlie^_buf������alo_berd.s and to give notice if danger should appear. ��������� The buffalo hunter of the plains possessed a peculiar character; he was a skilful rider, a good shot, hardy, strong and watchful and -courageous. He usually rode a horse possessed of speed, strength and wind. Like his master, the horse enjoyed, the excitement of the chase and 'would strain every nerve to bring" His' master alongside of the buffalo. In those days the buffalo hunter, was usually armed with a smooth bore muzzle loading gun. His supply , of powder was contained in a horn that hung from the shoulders by a strap. The. hunter kept several bullets in his mouth for the sake of expedition in loading. When a drove of buffalo were to be approached the advance was made by hunters in the greatest of silence, the leader of the party a little in advance, his chifef duty ,,was that of restraining the impetuosity of the more impatient hunters and get his band as near the buffaloes as possible, At length when the buffaloes commenced to move, the uneasiness would increase and the herd started, the leader would shout and then every horse would spring forward. AH_ had_ to start, for n������ horse could rbe restrained; 'Briclles weRTlIt^orgWs" were brought into position and the wild cavalry bore down on the flyinsr herd. After the first shots had been delivered, the hunter loaded his gun while his horse was at full speed and in firing care, was taken not to raise the breach j higher than the muzzle lest the ball I should roll out, but, as the rider was ' generally only a few feet from the animal that he wished to shoot there I was no such need to raise the gun to the shoulder. Sometimes a single hunter would shoot four or five buffaloes during the chase made on a good herd. The larger the drove the,better chance i there was for the hunter as the animals in advance retarded the progress of those in the rear where the attack was taking place. Cows and young bulls were not killed unless by accident or when game was scarce. On the. occasion of the great hunt the carts were-lpaded with pemmican, tongues aiv-1 skins of buffaloes. When a hunter had dropped a buffalo at some distance from his companions, or from camp, the horse was tied to the head of the animal while its master was engaged in skinning the .beast that had been captured. During ^the���������continuance���������of���������the���������groat���������hunt��������� on- ' the Souris plains which lasted for many f weeks, the food of the hunters was meat and nothing else. The next season the , buffalo herds had moved .far to the west and never again returned in great numbers so near the Red river.

'The roar of the ostrich resembles the roar of the lion because the ostrich stole from the lion this sound, even as oue playwright steals from another a plot." An ornithologist made that odd assertion in a taxidermist's shop, lie went on to elaborate it as follows: "Birds from the ostrich down are imitative. The ostrich where he lives alone la silent, but in a country where lions abound he roars. Why? Because for centuries, admiring the majesty and grandeur of the lion's roar, he gradually learned to roar himself. Believe me, it is line to see an ostrich throw back his little head and emit a roar like thunder. "Buntings imitate pipits, and green. finches imitate yellowhammers.

The Way Public Sales Were Formerly Conducted In England. Candle auction was a well known method of procedure in England in the early days of the East India company. Public notices of such sales were flrst put up at the royal exchange. When the day came a candle exactly an inch long was placed on the auctioneer's desk. Directly the sale, began the candle was lighted. So long as it continued to burn bidding went on merrily, but the instant the flame died away the goods were knocked down to the last bidder. In this manner immense consignments of silks, indigo, spices and so forth were disposed of, thousands of pounds changing hands during the burning of the inch of candle. Before the auction began a list was read over of the names of persons not permitted "to bid at the candle." This contained tne names of those who had failed to pay their debts or had in any way wronged the company, who "blacklisted" them in consequence. Two Kinds of Kisses.

Did you ever observe whether you breathe through the mouth or nostrils? It makes a wonderful difference. When we talk we are forced to breathe through the mouth, says the Philadelphia Inquirer. When not speaking the lips should be well closed, and the breathing should be entirely by the nostrils, but this is not all. The habit of slow, measured, deep breathing that covers the entire lung surface is of more value and importance than you will ever believe until you have tried it, and when you have established the ^habitjif3.re.athing.JnJ;his���������mann_er_you, 'will say some remarkable things in its favor.

The lungs are a kind or furnace, in which the oxygen of the air is consumed and combined with other elements, n process necessary te life, the perfection of which depends upon the purity of the air and the manner of inhaling it.
