An Anecdote af Mather Melilnley'a Visit to Ibe White IIhuk.*. "Just nfter President McKinley's inauguration he had his relatives who were in the city at a family dinner at the White House," says the July Ladies' Home Journal in an illustrated anecdotal biography of the president, "lt was a large company and a very good dinner. Dear old Mother McKinley was there, but she was not very talkative. She was too happy for words. But she kept a sharp eye on the dinner, and no detail of it escaped her. She was impressed by the quantity of cream served with the fruit and coffee, for she looked up at her son in her sweet way and said: " 'William, you must keep a cow now.' "Some of the younger members of the family party found it difficult to suppress a smile, but the president, with bis usual tact and graciousness, replied: " 'Yes, mother, we can afford to have a cow now, and have all the cream we can possibly use.'" Coffee was Introduced into the Philippines from lliazil iu the. latter part of! the eighteenth century, bitterly the export has decreased greatly. It used to average 2,800 tons u year, but has re-1 cently sunk to only l!(M). This is probably due to the revolution, for the colfec is of good quality, some of it excellent. Some one has undertaken to show how Ireland might be made lo prosper. There ate 2,000 parishes which ought to turn out BO pigs weekly.

The ordinary nisi time consists of u coat und trousers of white sheeting, quids to order at a cost of About $2; a thick felt hat with a broad brim, a pair of white canvas shoes, a light under- vest and socks. The average well-to-do citizen wears ami soils two of these suits a day, and an outfit of 18 or 20 is none loo many. Printers were on strike on the St. Louis Star three weeks and won out.

An improved method of preserving milk for transportation is stated to have developed an Important new industry iu Sweden and Denmark. Tlie milk is collected at it central station from neighboring farms, and is there pasteurized at about 170 degrees Fahrenheit, after which part of it is frozen at about 15 degrees. The blocks of frozen milk are placed in stout, wooden casks, which thev half 'ill, sterilized milk being poured into the remaining space. The casks are then hermetically sealed, und, as they are perfectly full and kept, cool by the frozen masses, the milk cannot be churned into butter in transportation,and may be kept in good condition for at least twenty days. This makes it possible for the Danes un 1 Swedes to supply even Kngland and France with whole cargoes of milk. TBE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS is due not only to the originality and simplicity of the combination, but also to the care and skill with which it is manufactured by scientific processes known to the California Pig Syrup Co. only, and we wish to impress upon all the importance of purchasing the true and original remedy. As the genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. only, a knowledge of that, fact will assist one in avoiding the worthless imitations manufactured by other parties. The high standing of the California Fig Syrup Co. with the medical profession, and tbe satisfaction which the genuine Syrup of Figs has given to millions ot families, makes the name of the Company a guaranty of the excellence of its remedy. It is for in advance of all other laxatives, as it acts on the kidneys, liver and bowels without irritating or weakening them, and it does not gripe nor nauseate.

AS noted in tho lirst issue, tlie daily was started for the purpose of giving the people of Kaslo thc latest telegraphic war news, and wo only promised to continue tt during such time as sufficient publio interest in war events justified us in so doing. The Hispano-Amerlcan war has virtually ended, as tho best Information at hand would indicate a desire on the part. 1 if (Spain to sue for peace. The weekly edition of the British Columbia News will bo continued as formerly, appearing each Friday afternoon brimful of tbo latest local and general news... THE RESULT AT HOME. Mr. Green, tho Opposition candidate for tho legislature, was successful at the polls in this riding yesterday. The result came as a surprise to all save that class who delight to say, "I told you so." We have viewed the contest in but one light, namely, "Tho best interests of Kootonay." We believed, and are still ef that opinion, that a Government supporter would be able to accomplish moro good for this riding than an Oppositionist. However, we will not by word or act, seek to discredit any effort on the part of Mr Green to accomplish for this riding the full measure of all that it is justly entitled to. and all that we are satislied Mr.Green will endeavor to secure for it. We were alone interested in the business stability of the Province, and believing as we did that the Turner Government was better .able to maintain our present standing in the financial 1 than a new regime, wo Bought to strengthen its position by supporting a man we knew to be in harmony with tho present administration. Wo have done so honestly, and fearlessly, a\id have no excuses to mako or pardons to beg for having done so.

In Staking an extension tho posts arc often planted so as to form a wedge- shape fraction between two ends of tbo two claims. These fractions have often incurred groat expense, not only In recording and surveying, but in cases where they carry tho lead, and thus bo- come of such value as to promote liti- uation. The amended act authorizes the surveyor to include such fraction, .1 v.A... ssi'svi.. ss���..,r,!��.! ,,�� i.i���,B,sir ' provided it does not cover moro than throughout, never pormitti.ig hltasell _liM ��-���, &<�� areaM a fuU clalm. and provided further that two location posts aro together.

Now, a miner can do ami record as many assessments as be pleases in a yenr Iiy paying tlio recording fee lor each assessment dono to thc extent of $100. ln case anybody should adverse an application for a certificate of improvement and crown grant, the contestant must have his claim surveyed immediately and file a plan made and signed by an authorized provincial land surveyor with the writ. To obtain a crown grant in 1896 it was necessary to do assessment work to * the amount of $.*i(H) and to have tho \ | claim survoyod, which mount another $100. In 1897 the act was amended so as to provide that up to May 1,18t)8,tho cost of such survey should count as work done on the claim, not to exceed $100. tn plain English, it counted as an assessment and as work toward the crown grant. A survey generally costs $100. Tho last legislature extends tho time to May 1, 1899. Hereafter, in adverse proceedings in connection with the title to mineral claims, before any court, each party to the proceedings shall give affirmative evidence of title. Heretofore the burden of proof was on tho contestant. The foe for recording assessment work has been reduced from 82.76 to $2.50. Heretofore the fee for recording assessments has been _fi conts higher than other fees. Anybody who pulls down a legal post erected to mark 11 boundary or location of a mineral claim, or any writing by law required to bo thereon, is liable to imprisonment for six months or a, fino of $250, Or both. This is supposed to be directed particularly toward pro- venting the use of old posts by people who restako a claim and sometimes destroy evidences of a prior location. .iSHBIMK-X U ��""*^ 9 *f Iio, fishermen, Will supply you with E ver thing- Needful, at Low r STEAMER HALYS.

Great kettles were hung over the kitchen fire and filled with hot wnter and melted tallow. At the cooler end of the kitchen two long poles were placed from chair back to chair back, Across these poles, like the rounds of a ladder, were placed shorter sticks, called candle rods. To each candle rod were tied about a dozen straight candle wicks. The wicks were dipped again and ngnin. In regular order, in the melted tallow, the succession of dippings giving each candle time to cool. Each grew slowly ln size till all were linished. Deer suet was used as well as beef tnllow and mutton tallow. Wax candles were made by pressing bits of half-melted wax around a wick. PURCHASING ARMY OFFICES.

He Is the pet of Mm. I)., who >wns and drives hliu: and It Is evident io all who know tliem that horse aud >wner are very fond of each other. She always gives him an apple or jarrot before starting on n drive, and mother on returning, the latter being given after his bridle has been remov- ld; and he has learned to wait patlent- ly for the dainty until that time. i Ou the same floor of the stable ls Mr. H.'s horse, "l'lill."

But one evening, while Tatters, who and just come in, was waiting for the removal of his bridle, l'lill, who was ihead of him, wns the recipient of an ipple from Mrs. D.'a hand, as she stood alklng to Mr. B.

Then Mr. U��� mid after hlm .the {room, tried ti) Induce Tatters to take :he apple, but to no purpose; he wus nut because his mis-tress had given an ipple to Phil before giving one to him, tnd he would not forgive the affront. His owner's feelings were much like ���hose of the horse, nnd she left the stn- )le with tears lu her eves. Before ���timing out the next day, she had a 'rtend give a carrot instead of au apple :o Tatters, In the hope Hint, If he hod not forgotten the unintended affront, the carrot might break the association s-ith the apple. He took the carrot eagerly. Then be :ook one from his mistress's hand, aud rou may he sure she lias never since :hen given npple or carrot to another aorse while Tatters was In sight. More Days to Come. In Spain the people tnke no note ot time, not even from its loss. Everything Is to be done manaiia, to-morrow. A wealthy Englishman, who hud long lived in Spain, had a lawsuit. He pleaded bis cause in person, and knowing the customs of tile country, won his case. The victory cost him three days of trouble and expense, so thut when the Judge congratulated hlm ou his success, he replied: "Yes, that's ull right; but It has cost tue three days, and time Is money. I am a busy man. and these three days are lost forever." "Oh, you English!" answered the Judge: "you ore always saying that time Is money. How are you to get your three days back? 1 will tell you.

Apart from such cases, headache may be oecaslonul only, nud Is then usually traceable to Indiscretion lu eating or Irlnklug, or possibly smoking, to exposure to the hot sun or a cold wlud, to overfatigue, want of sleep, or to some atlier easily discoverable cause.

The hnbltunl headache, which recurs tt more or less frequent Intervals, Is more difficult to trace to Its cause, and more difficult to cure.

This headache comes on lsually In the afteruoon, after tbe eyes tiad been used for reading or study, ind grows steadily worse until evening. In cases of persistent headache, attention should flrst be paid to tbe digestive organs; coffee, tea and alcoholic lrlnks should lie excluded, tbe amount ��f meat reduced, and the bowels regulated. 8mokers should be very moder- ite, or, better still, stop smoking entirely for a time.

How the Famoua Old Statesman la Spending Hia Declining Daya. Every evening after dinner an old man sits at the library window In his handsome white stone house, ln K street. Washington, and watches the people as they pass along the street or gases abstractedly at the beautiful park across the way, says a correspondent. He holds n cigar In his band, but he seems to smoke little. He sits there quietly till the man comes in to turn on the lights. Then he gets up and seats himself iiy tlie table covered with the papers of the day and his favorite books, or goes upstairs to Join his family lu the sitting-room. This Is John Shermnn. tbe statesman who has been a conspicuous figure In the affairs of the nation for more than two score years, und ls ijbw entering upon a period of well-earned rest. An old nelghlior or a distant relative cau always find tbe way through the manners. The deeper notes wliich go to make up her droning song nre due to .the rapid vibration of the female Insect's wings as she files; and these vibrations are found by means of a siren (an Instrument which measures the frequency of the waves in notes! to amount to nbout .'1.000 ln a minute. Tbe mosquito's wings must therefore move with this extraordinary rapidity, which sufficiently accounts for tlie difficulty we have lu catching one. But the higher and shriller notes of the complex melody are due to speclnl striduhitlng organs situated like little drums ou the openings of tlie air tubes; for the adult mosquito breathes no longer by one or two air entrances on the tail or back, like tbe larva, but by a number of spiracles, as they are called, arranged in rows along the sides of the body nnd communicating with the network of Internal air chambers. The curious mosquito music thus generated by the little drums serves al- QUEEN OF THE GYPSIES. Molly Friar Crowned Killer of the Ho* mimics, All Over the World. A queen was recently crowned In To* peka, Kan. She Is a real queen, too, the queen of all the gypsies. Her name ls Molly Friar, and upon tbe death of her mother, who had reigned for sixty- two yenrs, Molly was declared Queen of the Romanies all over the world, Her mother bad reigned In Austria, but the Queen-elect has announced her determination to remain in America, and the gypsy capital will consequently be transferred to the United States., Molly Friar is �� real Romany. She liu4 traveled In gypsy fashion all over the world, and speaks fourteen different* languages.

You can best observe the mosquito In action by letting one settle undisturbed on tlie back of your hand, aud waiting while she tills herself with your blood; you can easily watch ber doing so wltb a pocket lens. Like tbe old lady In ""Pickwick." she Is soon "swelling wlslbly." She gorges herself with blood, Indeed, which she straightway digests, assimilates, and converts Into IIU0 eggs.
