The exhibits, however, were of sufficient merit and volume to have attained this re-t ■suit under less favorable climatic conditions. The sporting program alone would have attracted a large crowd. The fair was opened at 1:30 yesterday by President Clark of the agricultural association. Addresses were made by Judge Brown, Mayor Fripp, Mayor McLaine of- Greenwood and Mayor Matheson of Phoenix. The s| leakers congratulated the directors of the fair and the prop of the city and valley on their enterprise in collecting such superb displays of the products of the district. These exhibits, they pointed out, could not be surpassed anywhere, and the citizens had ample cause to feel proud of the resources of the valley. The attendance was very large. The local people turned out well, and the surrounding Boundary towns were better represented than in former years. | The exhibits of fruit and vegetables are very complete, the plate displays of apples, pears, peaches, plums and grapes being quite numerous. The quality of the fruit, both as regards size and coloring, is excellent. In the box exhibits there are fine displays of all the standard varieties grown in the valley. Thomas Powers' display of five boxes of Wealthies is the finest specimen of that variety every seen here. Equally good exhibits of other varieties are made by the leading orchardists of the valley. All the fruit exhibits are artically arranged. In the vegetable department, big squashes and pumpkins, elephantine beets and cabbages, and huge potatoes may be seem, ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ The mining exhibit is on a larger scale than in former years. The Granby company has a fine display of blister copper and copper ore. Specimens of ore from all the North Fork properties, as well as from Fife and Laurier, are also shown.

Another new feature this year is an excellent display Mrs. A. S. McKim of apple products, entered for a special prize. The articles of food made out of the apple appear to be sufficiently numerous to fill a good-sized menu card. Mrs. H. W. Collins also has a similar exhibit. The poultry exhiqit, as usual, is exceptionally good. There is also a fine display of eggs.

In tbe first game tbe ■core was 4 to 1 in favor of Phoenix and in the second tbe visitors had two goals to the home team's one: Tbe teams from Greenwood and the Mother Lode failed to put in as appearance. In the baseball tournament Pboenix defeated '.ioseland by a score of 2 to 1, and Grand Forks defeated Phoenix by a score of 6 to 3. Both names were keenly contested, and the spectators were treated to a fine exhibition of ball playing. Vic Johnson and partner won the log sawing contest at the rink. Ti*ne, 1 min. '.'5 sec.

Harkin. Among working journalists in tbis country none was better known, perhaps none was so well known throughout the Dominion as Mr. Harkin, and certainly none possessed a gie iter number of - friends among the members of tbe craft. Fur upwards of thirty years be followed his profession and died con stderably sbort of fifty years of age. His career, except for two years on tbe staff of tbe New York Times and brief period in Chicago, on the Tribune, was confined to Canada, and in this country be filled many important positions, both in the east and west. His forte lay in correspondent and it is doubtful if he bad, in this department of work, any equal in tbis country or any superior oft tbe continent. His tbor ough intimacy with the political and industrial history of tbe Dominion, bis comprehensive and sane gr»sp of affairs and his wide acquaintance witb the prominent men of the country, together with his aptitude for bringing situations and facts before his readers, vividly and interestingly, made him an invaluable workman in tbe newspaper world. HiB genius in this respect was recognized by men of affairs, for many of whom, among tbem some of tbe foremost of tbose we call captains of industry, be performed legitimate services of great value in tbe pursuit of his chosen calling. . "Personally he was a man of a most lovable nature, modest and unassuming. HiB loyalty to his friends and his fidelity to a higb code of so eial and professional ethics will keep his memory fresb witb tbose wbo knew him well, while tbey live." Tbe late Mr. Harkin, who came to the west many years ago, was at one time city editor of tbe Montreal Star and was associated with lhe Ottawa Jsurnal when it was started. He really Biarted bis newspapei career when he was sent to cover the Riel rebellion for the Star After yeara of service on that paper he went inio the "mining game" in Rossland, where he was also con nected with journalism. From Rossland he came to Grand Forks, and he remained bere until 1907, wben be went to Vancouver, and since tbat time be bas been engaged in newspaper work in that city. A recent biographical sketch by him on Sir Charles Tupper has aroused interest both in Canada and the old country. A Fine Display C. A. Coughlan, manager for P.

A New Motor Plow An English firm has made a new plow tbat is propelled by a four- horsepower gasoline motor. It is much like the ordinary horse-drawn implement, and can be used for any of the ordinary agricultural tasks, Btich as plowing, cultivating, scuffling, skinning, hoeing and drilling. As it is only three ft high and two ft four inches wide, it can be used in places where horses can not work, between fruit trees in orchards, in vineyards and hop gardens, and in rubber, tea and coffee plantation. Unlike other motor plows, it has only two driven road wheels, and the attendant who walks behind it runs the engine and guides the plow by means of star wheels. With one wneel running in a furrow, the plow virtually steers itself, and needs little attention excep at tbe end of tbe furrows. Tbe makers assert that the machine will do nearly twice as much work a day as a horse drawn plow, at about one-half the cost an acre. Thn correctness of the assertion naturally depends somewhat upon the nature of the land on which the machine is set to work. W. J. Galipeau commenced work today on the cement sidewalk around the new post oflice building.

When Irritated, this Itchiness turned to pimples. These pimples soon began to spread up the arras, from . t be arms to my whole body. ' They also came up on the face. Having spread over my body they became Irritated by my clothing. They began to ooie water-llko matter. Then began an almost killing tortureof Itchiness. When I scratched I seemed to scalp the pimples and make them extremely sore. They festered and enlarged, then tbey opened and left son spots. These spots became scabbed and sore beyond expression.

A train waa drawing out from the station wben a man came running along the platform. Smith! Smith! Smith! he shouted. In a car at the rear of the train sat a passenger, who, hearing the cry, thrust his head out of the window. Immediately the runner on the platform struck btm a smart blow across the cheek. Every moment the wheels were revolving mor_> swiftly, and before the Insulted passenger could call an official the train was clear ot the station. He went at once to the conductor's quarters. What kind of nn outrage Is this? he demanded.^ Here am I, an innocent passenger, sitting quietly Just as the train pulls out of the station. Suddenly a man runs doven the platform shrieking Smith! Sm! h! I look out ot the window, and he reaches up and almosts knocks my head off! Now, I want to— Pardon me. Interrupted the conductor. Is your name Smith? No It isn't and that is ji.st what makes— Well, then, sir, what did you look out of the window for1! There was not anybody calling you, was there? Worms in children work havoc.

The more highly organized we become the more need there Is for regularity and natural simplicity ln the food we eat. The laws of body nutrition should be carefully ob.yed, and lhe finer more highly developed brain and nervous system not hampered by a complicated, unwholesome dietary. A lady ot high nervous tension says: "For fifteen years I was a sufferer from dyspepsia. I confess that an improperly regulated diet was the chief cause of my suffering. Finally nothing that I ate seemed to agree with my stomach, and life, at times, did not seem worth living "I began to take a pessimistic view ot everything and see life through dark blue glass, so to speak. My head became affected with a heavy creeping sensation and I feared paralysis. "Palpitation ot the heart caused - me to fear thnt I might die suddenly.

Ths Scientific Farming of ths Woodlot ."There ts no P-trt of the farm which WlU give bigger returns for so llttlo expenditure of time and labor as tha woodlot." This statement in the July number of the Canadian Forestry Journal, 1. made by Mr. B. R. Morton, B. Sc. F., the sllvical expert who ts engaged by the Forestry Branch at Ottawa to demonstrate to tbe woodland owners of eastern Canada just how these btge-er returns may be achieved. But lt It is not possible to obtain such expert advice, there arc yet three ways ln which the farmer, by the exercise of ordinary common sense, can vastly Improve the composition, production and reproduction of his woodlot. Tin flrst thing necessary ls to Improve the cha-.acter ot the crop, which can be done by cutting down and using for fire-wood all diseased and deformed trees, as well as such species whose presence In the wood- lot ls not desirable. Only too frequently ls the method of cutting exactly the reverse. Ths best trees are cut, often for purposes for which an Inferior, wood would serve, and the poorer species are left seed-In the cut- over areas and to gradually crowd out the better varieties. Before cutting, the farmer should consider flrst the use to which the wood ls to be put, and second, the species-composition ot the woodlot which ls most desirable. Firewood probably yields the best returns for a small acreage and for this purpose rapid-growers such as poplar, ash and elm should be encouraged, which should make an annual growth ot from one-halt to one cord per acre. Basswood too, will be In Increasing demand because of Its rapid growth, because lt coppices readily and because ot Its value ln small sizes for the manufacture of excelsior, cooperage stock and other small articles for whicli the wood is particularly adapted, Maple reproduces readily, and although not a rapid grower, lt nevertheless yields a substantial revenue when It becomes large enough to tap. Soft woods like spruce, balsam and -.me grow much more rap- Idly tban hardwoods and might be advantageously grown for fuel or pulpwood. When the most suitable species have been selected and the weed-trees removed, the woodlot must then be thinned until the crowns of the best-formed remaining trees are seen to barely toucb. An acre can only produce a given amount ot wood each year and tha fewer trees there are to share this yearly Increment, and yet fully utilize the crown space, the more rap- Id will be the growth of these trees. The third requisite In the scientific farming of the woodlot, is that the cattle be kept out, especially atter heavy cutting, when reproduction Is most dctittd. Cattle are Just as Injurious to a young crop ot tree-seedlings as they are to a young crop of grain. They may Indeed eat the grass In the woodlot, but they would Just as soon, lf not sooner, eat the young and tender hardwood shoots, and the same can be said of sheep. Even coniferous seedlings are not immune to that certainty In reproduction ts only assured by fencing off the cut- over areas. Dr. Fernow predicts that "There will be a time when tha wood- lot will sell the farm or will, be a necessary part of the farm to make lt valuable. In the seasons when hit other work slackens the farmer could very easily Improve his woodlot In anticipation of this tlmi of increased wood values. No Pigeon The old lady was about to makt a railway Journey for the flrst time, and when she arrived at tht Btatlon she did not know what to do.

Roadways Appropriations The Vancouver organ of tbe provincial government says very truly tbat no other country in the world witb the same population is spending so much money in highways as British Columbia and lhat no other country has so much yet to be done to mnke the natural resources avail able. It did not tell its readers, however, that the chief purpose of this large expenditure was not to open up the province to settlement, but to provide jobs for innumerable hanger* on, wh i<e votes and influence keep the government in office. Had the road grants of the pas ten years heen honestly applied British Columbia would today havethe heit system of highways in Canada and would in addition have an agrioui cultural population, with, fertile farm lands behind it, which woul I have challenged competition wilh any part of America. As the News- Advertiser says, no country has so much yet to be done to make the natural resources avail ble. This is only in a sms-ll part 'iue to tbe difficulties of roud building in this province. The real trouble ha-c been, and ii", that the enormous sums ex p»nded hive been devoted to keep ing up a political machine which could always be depended upon to stand between the \ Bowser McBride administration and puiiic* opinion. The provincial appn priition for roadwayB this year is larger than the estimates of the five eastern prov inces, which have, as the News Advertiser tellB us, a population twelve times as great as that of British Columbia.

Eddy Company, wit-i twenty fire or more branches la Canada, with resident agents la every largo city from Halifax to Victoria, and with sixteen or eighteen thousand customers and correspondents la this country, takes a very cheerful view of th* business situation. Mr. Rowley told Ths World yester- terday that their business throughout Canada was better during the first halt of 1913 than for the same "Period ot 1912, that ls, sales were greater, although profits are less. Larger sales show Increased consumption: smaller profits Indicate greater cost ot material, higher wages and cut prices by senseless rivalry. The chief channel of the distribution of Eddy's wares Is through ths wholesale grocery and Jobbing trades. Until a few weeks ago, buying was done with great caution and only for Immediate need.; now, however, there is less feeling of anxiety than earlier ln the year and since the middle of June business ls flowing more freely and goods are more la demand. Correspondence from every city ln Canada shows that business lu atl lines Is becoming stronger and healthier. The 'hand to mouth' buying ot a few weeks ago ls succeeded by unusual midsummer activity because the wholesaler's stocks got low, the retailer's shelves were bare, but uow there ls a better, suror and .nore easy feeling among buyers; and taa neces- si'ies of life, such as matches, buckets, tubs, paper bags and paper of all kinds are In good demand for dally use. Mr. Rowley said: "The majority of the orders received at the Works ct Hull for r. month past are marked 'rush,' "hurry,1 'a.a.p.* while nearly every order calls for quick delivery, and that while the demand for goods, the lack of supplies and material, high wages and cost of making will keep the price: firmer, I expect to tee higher lists on many lines -ni an end put to cut prices, although our lists do not vary very much, taking oue year with another.—The Toronto World.

Sucb Impressions are usually vague I and readily give place to others. Of lthe two mentioned Melville remember- led only tbe latter. He was by no [means sure of bis Interpretation, but lbe proposed to act upou It at tbe first I opportunity. Trom tbe botel register lbe learned that tbe family nam* tas I Huntington." Melville again addressed [the rather and found a bond of fellow- [tblp In tbnt tbey wer* graduates ot lb* I lame university. Thus followed tu in troduction to tne inidiiy. Alum llucti-gton on learning tbst Melvllje wns fond of walking sympathized wltb bim, telling him thst sh* was devoted to It herself. Throwing •side conventionality, sbe accepted Invitations to go about wltb blm freely, unaccompanied by s chaperon. Melville found an additional feature tn th* puzzle Id nn evident dlsapprovsl on ibe part of Mrs. Huntington of bis at- lentlons to her dsugbter. Tbls disapproval did not appear to result from nny antagonism to him personslly, nor .Id tbe Isdy appear to blsme him for the growing Intimacy witb bsr daughter.' It wu plain from the mother's treatment of him that ahe wss holding Alma solely accountable for lt lt was also plain that Alma was bent j on following ber own Inclinations. Wben she suggested a morning walk witb Melville to Vllleneuve and back or- sn excursion on the lake her moth er would look pained ratber tbsn sn gered, and wben her efforts to indues ber daughter to desist met with 11) success tbe good Isdy would sigh si one much troubled. ' What all tbis meant Melville wss a* a loss to discover. Tbere was evident ly something bsck of It of wblcb bt was unaware. Tbe young lady wss evidently bent on an affair Witb blm, and ber mother was trying to dissuade ber. Had tbe girl really become attached to blm? He did not believe that she bsd. Her interest lu blm had come too suddenly and developed too quickly. Now and again, wbile rest- ing on tbelr walks, turning his eyes upon hers, be would catch ber looking It him with a singular glance tbat bt could not Interpret Tben sbe would arise, and as tbey strolled on would, pnt her arm through bis confidingly. Tbe Huntlngtons lingered at Mon Ireux, and Melville lingered too. Alma was pleased to remain, and sbe apparently dominated ber family. Foi Melville there was something so curiously fascinating about ber tbat be could not tear blmself away. And •very day tbat fascination grew strong- er. He wished that be dare ask her to solve the mystery hanging about ber, but something ln ber manner, he knew not what prevented blm. Once be ventured to refer to the garnet heart, but sbe gave blm a look so strange, to forbidding, tbnt be stumbled tn bit speechrtnd was silent At lost Melville, seeing tbat his attentions, or ratber Alum's encouragement of bis attentions, wns producing something tbat looked like discord in the Huntington family, resolved to de- part He announced his Intention tt Mrt. Huntington before speaking of It to Alms, the mother appeared grateful to bim. Wben he announced bis Intention to depart to Alms tbey were standing on sn eminence overlooking tbe lake. "Clear, placid Lemsn," as Byron bat described lt. its bosom dotted with various kinds of craft, was spread out before tbem, and tbe view had its effect on Melville. He did not wish to lest* tbe girl wbo In so short a time bad become so mucb to blm. She did not hesitate to dissuade blm from bis pup pose, and she was aided by tbelr beautiful surroundings. After a long alienee between them, during wblcb sb* was waiting for bis decision, he said: "I will remain on one condition. I love you; assure me tbat my love ls returned." As he spoke the words be turned snd faced; ber. A struggle was going on within ber. but what that struggle wat be could not tell. Sbe put ber. bands to ber face to conceal it from blm. He waited for ber emotion to pass. At last sbe took away ber bands, snd, looking into bis fsce with an expression entirely changed from tbat seeming revengeful spirit be, bad at times noticed, she drew tbe garnet pin from ber bosom and fixed lt In bis scarf. No words passed between tbem, only a caress. Then she added, "Go to mother; tell ber what has occurred and sbe will explain wbat bas naturally been a puzzle to yoa," S Wbeu Melville told Mrs. Huntington tbat be bnd captured tbo garnet heart sbe gave a deep drawn slgb ot relief. "Tou have broken a spell, Mr, Mel* ville," sbe snid to him, "that 1 am very happy bas been broken.

Memory Erased by Sandbag. Writing on "Confessions of Self Hob bery nud the Rctronctlrc Amnesia" It Case nnd Comment, Professor E. IV Delnbnrre of Brown university tells the Interesting fact that u concussion or blow from u sandbag will erase and drive from tbe brain or tbe memory occurrences happening witblu from three to five hours previous to tbe concussion, but will not disturb the Impressions ou the mind of previous occurrences. The author describes tbe effectiveness of this knowledge In securing complete confessions from "self robbed" individuals as follows: "I talked tbe mailer over with J. ll- Hume, ut that time chief detective for Wells, Fnrgo & Co.. und he forced n number of self robbed ngents wbo were short nnd reported sandbagging robbery, to confess because a windbag would not show nny murks, but ns they lu each case told nil particulars up io the blow of tbo sandbag be mude them owu up."

Curious Sacred Symol That Hat En dured for 8,000 Yeart. | The scarab, Uke the swastika, is a. j example of the curious persistenci i with which certain forms ol symbol ism have held the popular Imaginatiot and endured from the earliest timet ! down to the present day. It, is not. ■used as a decoration for clasps and buckles and also as part ol a head, dress or fastening for cloak or gown, with the peculiar oval beetle worked either in beads, enamel or metal. The use oi thy scarab as an emblem of the ancient Egyptian religion cat be traced as far back as 6,000 B.O. It was, in fact, commonly employed in connection with religious observances, archaeologists being ol tin opinion that when strung together is numbers, ss found on ancient monuments and in papyri, they represented the rosaries used by worshipers In prayers. The practically invariable presence of the scarab among the wrappings ol mummies and in the decoration ol -mummy cases points to its having been regarded by the ancient, Egyptians as an emblem of resurrection. This symbolic interpretation is, in fact, connected with the old belief that beetles arose from the dead, a belief whicli doubtless owes its origin to the habit of these insects of rolling their eggs in balls of sand, so thai when the young are hatched they have the appearance of issuing unaided from the earth. Scarabs (ound in tombs usually bear some inscription from the Egyptian "Book ol tin Dead," referring to the exchange of an old heart for a new. Hence arose, no doubt, the custom of placing scarabs over the heart of a dead person, the preservation of whose body they were supposed to secure. In many cases the heart was removed altogether when the body was embalmed, and was then replaced by a scarab. The earliest scarabs were (ormed of soft stone; later examples were made of pottery or engraved on pieces of hard granite. In color tl.ey either resembled lhat of the green Egyptian oockebafter or were of that fine, deep blue to characteristic of Egyptian pottery beads. The back is always in ths form of the sacred beetle and the fiat bate is engraved in various' ways, ac. cording to the period to which the scarab belongs. Some bear the nsmee cf Egyptian Kings, while others art engraved with the portraits (isthei impretsionistio in style I) of Queen, and various royal personages. Amen, hoteo III. was accustomed to issue hit royal edicts on the face of enormous Fcarabs, especially constructed for the nurnose, and smaller ones were used by him as gilts or to convey to friends the assurance ol his good feeling. The meaning of those peculiar spiral decorations which so olten appear on scarabs as well as on ancient eastern monuments, such at Cleopatra's Needle, hss been entirely lost sight of, but thst sll snch devices hsd a specifio meaning, however obscure, has been well established by antiquarian research. During the thiird century B.C. scarabs were frequently fashioned from gold and precious stones, and the fact that tliey were wrought in certain fixed sizes seems to point to the (act that they represented money values and were employed as a medium of exchange. But for whatever purpose they were used, their mysteriously sacred character always remain- ed, and this has endured wherever they are fouud, without regard to cen. tury cr tc country. The Quetn't Gown. Brilllfflit though the dresses were at their Majesties' fourth court, that worn by Queen Mary outthone them all. Her Majesty appeared in gold, her gown being ol Indian gold brocade, with a colored (lower design interwoven, and an embroidered panel of colored diamonds, the train being of Irish lace lined with sold tissue. As one courtier put it. "Her Majesty was a picture of magnificence."

Etiphantt Rsrtly Sleep. It is doubled whether, in the wild state, elephants ever lie down. Gordon Gumming thought he had lound evidence in marks upon thc ground that the adult bulls did stretch themselves out at full length for a few hours' rest at about midnight, but he contended that the young and the cows slways remained on their feet. Another authority, Selous, has expressed doubt whether even the old bulls lie down. He tells of on. herd that was known to hsve kept moving and feeding throughout 24 hours. "Except when rolling in mud snd water," ho says, "it is likely lhat au African elephant never lies down io its whole tile." To* Much Far Him. Howell-DId your boy past all hli entrance examinations?
