"Thle move Is socialism pure and simple. Tho most popular man in the -most populated district would get the nominat'on." he exclaimed. I 'Councillor McDonald spoke ln the same vein, and cited the result ln Vancouver, where be had been a councillor formerly. lie said that body turned lt down by a heavy vote. "Tm from Missouri, you've got to show me," he wound up. No Representative Mandate. Reeve W*art spoke a few words from the chair, stating that hi tie election on January 13, 1912, 383 votes were cast for the abolition, while 255 were against it. rtowever, as tbere was a total of 971 votes cast on tbat day, the figures did not show a representative vote on the question. Ae far as he was concerned no body or clique, he thought, could control municipal affairs, as any one district that attempted such a deal would have tbe opposition of the rest of the districts. If a convention was called in order to select candidates, he could hardly see where a dark horse could slip in, On the vote Councillor Madill was the only aye, while Councillors Britton, McDonald, Fau Vel and Mayne voted against the proposition. Councillor McGregor, who was present at the meeting, left before a vote was taken. Mayne Resigns. A lively interlude occurred at the meeting of the hall and grounds committee, Chairman Mayne tendering his resignation. When asked for a reason the councillor told hls associates that he felt liis work in this connection was not meeting with their approval, and also lie felt that he had been sidetracked when the heads of the different committees were apportioned at the beginning of the year. "Some cf thc new councillors," said CduncTllor Mayne, "are at the head of three committees while as for myself, I was handed just one." The' resignation was left on the table until the next meeting. In the meantime an effort.,will .b'j made tc ve bin* reranalder his decision. DEAD NUMBER THIRTY TODAY Saving lbe absence of tbe treasurer, tbere was a full meeting of tbe fifteen enthusiasts who compose the citizen's picnic committee at the board of trade looms last night. As previously announced this hardy annual will be celebrated upon July 17, and Arrangements have been made wltb tbe C. P. R. for a steamer capable of carrying SOW or 750 passengers (as may be decided upon) to come up the river and take on the crowd who will proceed to Victoria, returning the same day. At last night's meeting lt developed that tbe starting time would be 7 am., price of tickets would be $1.50, and that the return time would be about 10:30 p.m. The main business of the gathering wa* the adoption of a badge calculated to spread envy In the hearts of the citizens of Victoria. This magnificent streamer jvill be red In color, nine inches long by one and three-quarter Inches wide. It will cost 10 cents, and will bear the legend "New Westminster, the Harbor City." The latter phrase is to be very prominently displayed. Some discussion took place over the advisability of dropping the prefix "New," but this was Anally retained. This evening a memorial will be presented to the council asking for the declaration of a civic holiday upon July 17, so as to enable as many as possible to join ln the joyous event. While recognizing the claims of business it is hoped that as many as pos Bible will make the trip, with advantage to themselves and the city from which they hail.

Carl Olsvick, of Vancouver, a fisherman employed on board the halibut steamer Roman, was drowned off Frederick island, one of the Queen Charlotte group, on June 26, when the Ashing dory in which be was working capsized and precipitated him and a fellow fisherman Into the sound. Olsvick, and a companion, John Morrison, had been working In Dory- No. 9 all morning and were returning to the steamer when ln crossing ln front of the Roman they ran foul of the bow, and their boat turned completely over. Morrison, clinging to the slimy bottom of the upturned boat, caught a lifebelt whicli was thrown him by the mate, but Olsvick sank.

Perhaps in no other place in the Hritish dominions is there quite the same variety cf population as goes to the make-up of British Columbia, for there -are living here people whoso homes are scattered all over Canada and over the seven seas alao. Therefore little can happen in the world of white men but what to some few of us theso events come heme very deeply, bul that the whole c!ty mourns with Regina today, the people of our sister province of Saskatchewan may be well assured. Dominion Day, or the period around I It has indeed been a very unfortunate time for several places in Canada during the past three or four years. In 1909 the major part of the city of Cobalt was wiped out by Ure, which for two days previously had been raging In the vicinity, destroying forests and mine buildings alike. Last year upon Dominion Day the frontier town of South Fort George lost its hotel���in a way as proportionate a disaster. This j .year we have to chronicle the tornado I -of Regina.

When the war In South Africa broke out he was given command in Natal and remained until the lighting was practically over. After the war he served for four years as governor of I Gibraltar. Long List of Honors. Sir George has probably the longest list of honors possessed by anybody except royal personages. He 'had the Order of Merit, which is possessed Ey very few, and the Grand Crosses of the-Orders of the Bath, the Star of India, St. Michael and St. George, the Indian Empire, and the Royal Victorian Order. Sir George is the only individual not of royal blood who has the Grand Cross of the five- orders of knighthood, in addition to medals and clasps innumerable, beginning wilh the Indian Mutiny and end ing with the South African War. The story ot the manner in wllich the distinguished 'officer won his Victoria Cross is interesting. The Afghans were on a fortified hill, and the company of the young officer wavered thinking the job of dislodging them a forlorn hope. White tock a rifle from one of hia men, crept forward and | shot the leader. This so intimidated the enemy and encouraged his men that tlie position was soon won. His Self-Pocsession. Sir George was, during his career, noted for his self possession, a quality whicli helped to make him the successful soldier he was. This same self-possession stood him in good Blead on a recent occasion when he was addressing a large meeting in North London on "Military Service and Preparedness." In the heat of his argument Sir George went too near to the edge of the platform���fortunately not a very high one���and fell over. Disdaining all offers of aid he was on his feet in an instant, calm and serene as over. He regained the platform and proceeded with his discourse thus: "I could not posibly liave given you a better example of how suddenly danger may come upon us," a statement great. Lost Opportunity. Sir Thomas Llpton tells a humorous story of a Scotchman who wont to a race meeting for the first time in his life. The old man's friends persuaded him to risk a sixpence on a horse���a 40 to 1 chance. With much trepidation, the Scotchman handed out the sixpence, and, strange to relate, the horse won. When the bookmaker handed out a sovereign and sixpence to Sandy, the latter could not believe his own eyes. "Do you mean to tell "me I get all this for my saxpence?" he asked. "You do," replied the bookmaker. "Ma conscience!" exclaimed Sandy. "Tell me, mon, how long this thing been going on?" Though Sandy had "greenhorn's luck" and "picked tho winner" on his llrst venture, he might not do so again in 99 t'mes out of 100, as those who "follow the ponies" could tell him. The man who wanti to place his "sax- pences" on a "sure thing" should investigate the Canadian Government's Annuity System.

HOW SEATTLE VIEWS HARBOR DEVELOPMENT The average daily compensation cf railway employees of all classes for Mr. Harry Benner of San Francisco, superintendent of agents for several large insurance companies, and probably one cf the best known traveling insurance executive officers in the States, was in the city Friday and Saturday on a tour of inspection, accompanied by Mr. IV. T. Burwell, special agent and adjuster for the same companies. . Mr. Benner, who sper.da all his timr traveling throughout Canada and thc States, says that no place on the continent is showing such substantial progress and so much asctivity as the Lower Mainland of Britisli Columbia and Vancouver Island. Mr. Benner, who ha3 traveled widely enough to know a boom when he ses it says that the movement here is not in the nature of a boom with inflated values &!��� ye�� o!91? ?8,!"��� ^he United but~rather a"steady'con��Vaten"t growth! 3tates, $2,23; in the United Kingdom T>o Vtao jii-npln of Seattle ever stop to think what it would mean to turn loose the large fund which they have authorized the port commission to expend? Do they realize the enormous amount of useful industrial energy that would be loosened and quickened aB a result of the wise and proper use ef the money they have authorized the port commission lo expend on harbor terminals? Do they realize the actual, concrete advertising benefits to be derived from a scheme of comprehensive waterfront improvements? Do they realize that adequate port facilities here will encourage thc early investment of millions of dollars by ��utBidofaf:|i^Seattle enterprises? That it will mean an expanding commerce? That it will mean new factories and a longer and a larger payroll? It ls time for the people to realize these things. For all of the whining and whimpering of a few sly knockers Seattle is all right; but Seattle is not goiug ahead as rapidly as the city should. It is not because of any fundamental weakness. The city is sound to the core. People may be buying less than they bought several years ago; but they are buying what they actually need, and that is enough to keep the city going. Besides, they are saving, instead of spending, the excess they earn over and above their actual needs; and that really Is n wholesome and encouraging oondlt'on, But v.e need something to stir the latent energy of the city, something to appeal to the imagination and rouse the aggressive spirit of the people of Seattle, and nothing will do it quicker or mere efficaciously than will a comprehensive program of port betterments tfctirally under way. It is t'me to wake tip and go to it. ��lse we may not havo the dist-nctlcn and advantage of leading the way through the Panama canal and reaping the lion's share of cominerco on the Pacific.���Seattle P.-I. SIR GEOriGE WHITE. Gallant Soldier ani Irish Gentleman Has Pass"d Away. Field Marshal Sir George Stuart White, one of the most distinguished soldiers in the British army, d'ed on Monday in last week.

The lowest paid railway employee in ttio United StateB. tlie ordinary trackman, receives a graater compensation than many of the railway employes of France, even those of higher grades and with responsible duties. The compensation cf railway employees is from two to three times as high in the United States as in Italy. A recent report of the English Board of Trade cn railway wages shows that the ave. age weekly pay of englneinen in the United Kingdom ir 1907 was ?11.17; of firemen, $6.67. In the same year eng'nemen on American railways received an averagf weekly compeus'J';T of $25.80, count ing six days to the week, and firemen $15.24. Recent returns make it clear that in 1912 enginemen and firemen in the United States are compensated at rates of pay for specific runs tliat are two, three and four times as high as '..he corresponding rates on representative English railways. The annual compensation of enginemen in the United States, as reported hy two representative railway companies now range from $1100 i n switching service to over $2S00 In passenger service, and of firemen from $700 in switching service to over $1700 in passenger service. For Continental Europe official returns in requisite detail are not available fcr a later year than 100R. The salaries and allowances of the typical engineman in C.i .nanv amounted for that, year to $646.88, In Anstria tc $870.80; of a fireman in Germany tc 1424.59. In AuBtrla to $532.08. Tht annual compensation i f englnemi n <;i two cf tho principal ra'.lwavs o' France ranged In 1908 fvom $606.66 ti *<)06.ftl, ard of fir-men from $324.24 t' $596.98. in Italy enginemen received In 1908, salary and allowance:) Inolud ��d. frcm 1581.10 to $812.70 a year; Bremen, from (830.30 to $475.05 p yea;-. In these Coat'non tal countries the maximum compensation is raceiv ed only after many year3 of service. Thc average annual compensator of enginemen in the United states In 190S. cn r.n estimated basis of 300 days' service, was $1,335; cf firemen, $792. In this country the rate cf com pensaticn to these employees does nc. depend on length cf sorvice. Iln Belgium enginemen received In 1907 ft cm $23.16 to $38.60 a month: firemen, frcm $17.37 to $23.16 c month; conductors and station employees, from 46 cc.nle to 96 cents 8 day. In the United States, in thr lame year 1907. enginemen averaged -:n the bads of 25 days' service, $107- 7>i) a month; firemen. $63.50 a menth; conductors. 53.Ci) a day; station rm plove.es, frcm $1.78 to $2.05 a day.

'���No or.�� In this district." nays Mr Benner, "can estimate the amount of business the opening of the Panama Canal will bring here. New Westminster certainly made no mistake in voting on her recent bylaws as she did. "The greatest problem in connection with the opening cf the Panama, however, is not how the Pacific Coast will take care of the new business, but how she will take care of the population that will come here. This, to my mind, will be thc graatest problem the coast has -ver nad to face. I look to see thoua&tids of people from Southern Europe lo'iow the canal to the Pacific Coast. The Question then will be how will we assimilate these people. The majority of these people will not be of the high intelligence of our people here now; all their Ideas, customs, manner of living���everything about them���will be foreign to us. Will we be so situated that we can educate them up to our standard of living or will these people still continue to fol-1 low their old habits and mode cf life? Coldicott Blk, Right now there are various societies in San Francisco and other places for the uplift of people whom they particularly deal with who are making preparations for the care of thousands of people annually after the canal is opened, wher3 as they used to make provisions for two hundred annually. The Eastern StateB now has certain nationalities In large number* In New- York City and other places whom they have not successfully assimilated, Will the same condition prevail here a few days after the canal Is opened? This is the greatest feature of the Panama in the minds of BOClalogistS who have been studying the effect of tho Panama Canal on the Pacific Coast."

WE0TMHWff#l SPORTS REFEREE TURNBULL 18 IMPARTIAL OFFICIAL In Its sport columns, headed "Lacrosse Jottings," the Vancouver News-Advertiser yesterday came out with a big splurge about the heavy checking of the Salmon Bellies. Local fans came to the conclusion after the game a week ago, that all the Terminal City scribes had taken a tumble on to the situation and would give credit where credit was due. Not so, however, with the News- Advertiser, and the thousands of fans who attended the game at Recreation park on Monday have looked with ridicule upon the partial account of the game which appeared yesterday njovj'ng in the Vancouver sheet. It is nothing less than an insult to practically Insinuate that Referee Turnbull turned his eyes away from ���OOnei where Westminster players were pulling olT rough stuff. Alex has not played the game and not benefited by it. It is a safe guess that tliere is no official in the province today who handles the whlBtle so impartially as he does. Both the commissioners, representing the lower mainland, were spectators at the game and It ls practically a sure bet that their report, If one Is necessary, will give credit to the official work of Referee Turnbull.

Where tbi the people come from that pioneer in tb�� wilderness of spruce and jackpine.. As the north reckons, Ertglehsrt Is, an old settlement, and therefore it is to be expected that there vritl be some \ irl-,. ItomuH In %txe vie&ntty. Not -wl\l you be dU&ppotixtea. Bon* years ago an English couple, the husband a gardener in an Kngiish country house, set:fed on one of the concession lines bet-ween Knglehart and Charlton. The individuality of the man is re- fleeted very closely in the character of the house, the trim, well-kept lawn in front, without which to a certain type of Midlander no house is a home. Opposite him lives a German family with a quiverful of children, raising prodigious amounts of onion and cabbage, and in a roomy, go-as- you-please domicile. Nearly eighty miles north the Pullman cars attached to the T. & N. (). trains four times a day pass within view of the log shack of yet another German settler. A year or two ago he came here from Brazil, where a great number of Teutons are seeking "a place in the sun." However, this particular family found that it was quite possible to get even too much sun, particularly when it is combined with malaria, and they jumped clear across a continent to northern Ontario. The good wife in the middle oi winter sometimes sighs for thn langorous heat of South America, but the husband last year raised the charnpion crop of nats along the T. & N. O. and will certainly stay with the country for some time to come. In the little settlement of Homer there lives a German-Canadian, Sigis- inund Freiburger. He built the log house and has lived in it; he has cleared the land around it and raised crops on it; yet on the books of the Ontario Government lis name cannot be tound, and legally he hns no right to either the clearing or the home. It ia part of the burden of the settlers in Homer, this uncertainty of tenure of land. It is work for a man, this settlement of the north in the Arctic cold of the midwinter day, when the settler earns his^bread cutting out spruce for pulpwood waist-deep in snow; in the forcing-house heat oi the" spring, when the winter roads have gone and the cattle must be fed with grain brought in, on the settler's back, over a swamp trail where a horse would founder; in the early summer, when the -blacktly and the' mosquito make life a burden; in the late summer, when the bush fires flame in the sky; in the fall, the best time of all the year, when man and nature are preparing for the long hibernation. And why all this travail and heavy labor? For the landless, doKarlcss man, a home and a stretch of land that he acknowledges no man's right to walk on but himself; for a place where his children can run abroad without inhaling the dust nf tho streets. Little it may seem to those reasonably well to de, but, oh. how infinitely to be desired by the thousands of town dwellers in the bye- ,streets where the weekly salary is regularly eaten up by the weekly expenditure, and where the future holds out no hope oi protection ior a rainy day- OUR GOLD COINAGE, It Will Be Some Timt Before It'Die- places the Familiar "Rag Mbney."' Canadians now have their flrst gold coinage���that is, those who are for> tunate enough to get'hold of them, for no doubt the gold coins will prove shy and elusive as always have been the silver ones or the paper currency. Will our flve and ten dollar gold pieces come into as common use as prevails in the Old Gountry with respect to sovereigns Bnd half-sovereigns? Possibly nott. for some time at any rate, because this generation of Canadians is not accustomed1 to car�� ry any considerable amount- of money in coins. The Englishman has his- neat tittle coin-case, and it is an ordir nary practice for him to meet- current expenditure by paying- ouV gold. Tha only coin* w\U\ which-most Canadian* are tainiiiar are thoao- ol. eiiv��r, and we only use them as- "smalV change. When small change will nob pay tlte bill we use the notes: of ttie Dominion Up to four dollars, and bank, notes for larger amounts.. A use of our new gold coins wonld possess certain advantages, one being its cleanness. The filthiness ot much of our paper currency- is notorious. It has been complained' of time and time again, and several Ministers of Finance, Mr. Fielding in particular, promised to do something to drive dirty paper money oi��t of circulation. The promises have not been fulfilled, and there seems to be more filthy bills in circulation this year tban ever before. Gold will be elean, but it is heavy, and although not a bit harder to spend than a bank note, it is easier to lose. However, there will be seme demand for gold, and the demand will increase, and its use will increase as the people become mora accustomed to the prettiest money in the world. Any way, it is a matter of legitimate pride that hereafter the demand of the Canadian people for gold coins will be supplied by a Canadian gold coinage. There is one thing which the Mint might do to good advantage in imitation of a determination just arrived at across the- border. It might make it possible for us to sub-divide equally the live-cent and the twenty-flve cent pieces of our present coinage. It is undeniably hard on our poor people that they should have to sacrifice the half-cent in paying three cents instead of two and a half, and thirteen instead oi twelve and a half, as is often the case in making their tiny purchases at the stores. There is no reason why we should not have a half- cent coin for the convenience of shoppers. It will be found on enquiry that the approach of civilization generally demands subdivision of the currency coinage. There was a time when two bits, or twenty-five cents, roughly speaking, was the lowest coin in use, west of the Great Lakes. Until quit! recently one bit, or ten centa, was the unit nf smallness.. Following the civilization the railways brought, one rent has now become the smallest coin found in the West. It is fully time that we had half cents for the use nl i our more crowded population. We i cannot, however, see the'necessity of I adopting the Chinese plan of punching i a hole in the half-cent, as is likely to be the case elsewhere. Our ladies are 1 unlikely to carry their copiers ihrcu h ��� the strcet.i on a string.���Montreal Standard. Te Mend Hole In Sweater.

"Seeing Is believing" Is nn old saying which ls In a fair wny to lose Ita force. Modern psychology Is proving by experiments thnt people do not see even a fraction of tbe things tbey confidently believe they see. The picture test was first demonstrated In America at Clark university by the pioneer fn this field, Professor William Stern ot the University of Breslnu. At this time two unusually intelligent children, a boy and n girl In tbe upper grammar grades of tbe Worcester schools, were shown separately for the period of a minute a colored picture entitled the "Bauer- etube." giving ttw interior qf n German peasants butne. Among otber details is seen a table ut which a man find n hoy nre sealed, while a woman fs standing. The mnu hns removed hls coat, nnd tils bright red rest Is clearly exposed to view. The boy Ih sitting on n bench, bis bare feet not quite touching tbe floor. The woman wears a brilliant red skirt, over which Is a blue-green apron She bus 11 yellow shawl over ber shoulders. Near by Is n cradle of (lie same Btriklng blue green as the apron. At the rear ot (he room Is n bed, and Bret It hang iljrei1 pl'diee. These picture! depict fnnjtiinpo.s. and In one Is 4 Jong avenue ot trees. At the foot of J.he bed Is a window through which nothing is risible except a brunch of a tree. Near fhe window Is a clock wltb "the pendulum swung to one side. The bands point to exactly half past 12. 'ill of tbe details of lbe picture are extremely clear. ��, The children examined by Slern had an opportunity In tbe minute allowed tor tbe examination of (be picture to study It In some detail. Tbey knew tbat tbey were to he tested Immediately on what they hnd seen. Had not Ibe audience tbat witnessed the demonstration been able to follow tbe details of the testimony by means of a reproduction ot the picture thrown by a lantern on a screen nt the buck cf tbe children tbey would have been Impressed with tbe remarkable clearness and apparent accuracy of tbe testimony, particularly with reference to a certain cupboard which both testified stood near the bed. This cupbourd was described ml- cutely with substantial agreement 119 **ii* fiction ot the cup- superior workmanship iurnish evi dence that even at tiiat period the art of bottle-making was by no means in its infancy. The early history of the bottle is, as a matter of fnct, somewhat shrouded in mystery, for the reason doubtless thai the true bottle has never been a thing of great beauty except in rare instances, but rather a humble vessel ol no particular intrinsic value. In these days glass bottlas are turned out in enormous quantities. They are of all sorts, sizes and descriptions. In the manufacture of the ordinary glass bottle of commerce sand soap boilers' waste, brick clay or oth er material, according to locality, is used. When run down into a molten mass the product is skimmed and the first operator, known as the "gatherer," takes a little of the glass on the end of a heated pipe. When this has cooled somewhat he again clips his pipe into the glass, having "gathered" in the two dips sufficient material whereof to make a bottle. This he hands to the "blower," who, as he blows through the tube, rolls the product on a stone, thereby fashioning the bottle neck. The roughly shaped mass is then placed in a mil and the operator continues to ��� blow until he has brought it to tlie required form. The bottle is now passed to the finisher, who, by touching ths neck with a small hit of iron dipped in water, completely severs it from the pi[H?. He attaches the pontee, an iron instrument tipped with molten glass, to the bottom of the bott!e. thus piv- irg it {be usual rounded shape. Ibe next atep is to warm the bottle at "ie furnace, The finisher takea a, small quantity 01 the product on what is known as a ring iron and. timiine it around the mouth, forms the ring seen at the top of the neck. He trims the neck with shears. In Ihe centre of one blade of the shears is a piece of brass tapered like a cork which forms the inner mouth, whils the other blade lijs a piece of brass fastened to it for the purpose of shaping the ring. An assistant lifts the completed bottle on a fork and it is then taken to tie annealing arch, which contains about ten nr twelve gross of bottles placed in bins one above the other. The above processes are those employed in the making of even the cheapest and most ordinary bottles It may be imagined with what care and labor the workers operate to produce the bottles of the finest grade.

Life at the Elysee has not had the effect of attracting him more to the right bank of the river than.it did M. Loubet, who, like'liim, had a leng innings as President of the Senate hefore he attained the highest rank that the nation could confer. M. Loubet, on his departure from the palace in the Faubourg Saint Honore, settled in a flat at No. 5 Rue Dante, a new house, with all modern comforts, not far from Notre Dame, and M. Fallieres has decided on installing himself in an apartment of a house that be owns on the Boulevard Saint Germain, also situated on the "rive gauche." "It is quite a central position," as he has explained to intimate friends. "I sliall have the Metropolitan Railway and every means of communication at my very door, and I shall he within easy access of the Chamlier and the Senate." Republican simplicity will, in fact, be the rule with him as with his predecessor. "The flat which M. Fallieres is reserving for himself consir'i of a salon, a dining-room, a study and three tied chambers���just the ordinary suite ���and he will content himself with a; housemaid, as he seems to be as adverse to liaving 11 man to wait or�� him as was Victor Hugo, who could never tolerate a butler or a valet. M. Fallieres, as may be added, has taken a very wise precaution. Since noisy neighbors are the chief drawback to a Paris flat, he has made the tenants who occupy tho apartt ments immediately above and beiow the one which he has selected for, himself prorai 1 in their leases that they will not keep any animals or play the piano from morning till' night, or tor that matter, from night to nr rning. It is wonderful how men like \f. Fallieres and M. Loubet can adapt themselves to such a change in theiij positions. To exchange a palace for a quiet flat ancl to be as happy in the new life as one has been in the old denotes a strength and a simplicity of character which are really admirable. Since he left the Elysee M. Loubet has found a field of useful activity, without obtruding himself in the slightest degree, and so. no doubt, will it be with M. Fallieres. When' he was President of the Senate M. Loubet was fond of taking a morning ride in an omnibus, and since his removal to the Rue Dante cne often meets him enjo: ir.g a constitutional on the quays. When he was President of the republic he went almost daily to the Bois, driving u pair of fine hlack horses, and now he is satisfied with more homely rn?ans of locomotion. M..

By HENRV WILLIAMSON anything of my���my Tbey met ln the sweet summer time, trhen the days were long, and slnctf neither of them bad anything to do they filled the time wltb making lore. Bat long as the days were tbey were oot long enough for their loremaklng. lAt least the houra between their waking nnd going to sleep seemed Inadequate to tbe purpose. i Tbe most fervent loremaklng Is usually between those who bare no right to love or cannot afford to love. These two belonged to tbe latter class. He (was not yet of nge, would have no fortune when he came of age and thus far bad made no move to secure even B competence. But Rogers was full of pluck and enthusiasm nnd felt tbat for her he could make several fortunes. He received nn offer of a position on tbe Pacific coast and accepted IL She was to wait for blm. "Goodby," said Rogers. "Remember your promise.. You are to wait for me till I am ready to come bnck for you." "I will wait for you, but ns to your coming back for nie tbat is very uncertain. You are going clear across the continent >'ou aay yourself thnt you do not deem It safe to marry before you have an assured Income besides something laid up. 1 agree with you. For us who have nothing to marry on and attempt to bring up a family would be an Injustice to tbat family. Better not to be born at all than to struggle among those not equipped to . tight the battle ot life." ������Yqu are u thoughtful girl." I "Goodby." Rogers went to California. He was twenty yenrs old. nnd the girl he expected to wait for blm wns the same age He had good pluck, was honorable and would scorn to accept anything be was not entitled to from uny ' one. Rut he wus young, nnd Ibe young du not usually see justice ns It Is. At hls departure be exacted Delia 'Jenkins to wait for blm to gain a com petenre that wns uot likely to come /to bim until sbe Inn! outgrown the age during wbicb It Is best for women to ma rry. Tbls sbe did not propose io do. but she did not tell blm so. Blip was one to act on the principle "Never cross a bridge till you get to it." lu a year jtfter bta departure be hit ih<- ioJih tier or (milling tier and rrlraKMl ner, though ut lhe same time he declared tbat if ever be trained what he had Sone for he would return to renew bis proposal. Mlsa Jenkins at Ihe time sbe reoel? ed ber release had .another offer, ���which sbe nt oijee nccepted. In lime *be wrote ber drat love of tbe change In ber anticipation for tbe future. Ile vrote back that he wonld never marry unless sbe should become a widow and would accept blm for ber second tmslmnd. Now nil tbls was very sensible and ���ery creditable to both sides. Rogers, though it nearly broke bia heart to know tbat bia love pasaed to another. treated ber with every consideration, even to sending a wedding present Mie wrote blm that, wblle sbe wns veil satisfied wltb the man she was to marry. If sbe should become n widow and Rogers wanted ber abe would give him flrst preference, Delia Jenkins became Mrs. Thatcher. Twenty years passed arTd she became a widow. Rogers bad by this time nc cumulnted n competence and was abundantly able to mnrry. lle b.id never visited the east since bis de parture for Sun Francisco and bad never seen his former love. Nevertheless at tbe expiration of the Orst yenr of her widowhood be wrote her. renewing tbe proposition of his youth She replied thnt sbe bad beeu much touched by his constancy'and thnt if lie came east she would do everything In ber |>ower to contribute to hts nap- filness. Rogers lost no time In making the Journey. On the day of his Arrival he Benl a note to Mrs. Thntrber asking when It wonld lie convenient for her to receive him. A reply came asking lilm'to call that evening. He did so rnd. being ushered Into the drawing .mom, which was dimly lighted, saw a woman advancing to meet him. Now Rogers bail exercise* (lis lui- .affiliation so far as possible ns lo the probable appearance of .Jits old love after n lopse of two decades. But In \r\i\:e nt himself be aaw onl.v the Im rie he remembered and which waa llie photograph he hnd taken a way wl:h blm. Had he seen a woman wbo hiiil chanced ns wns to hnvejieen ev I cited he would have lieen astonished. .\s it wns. he met with n pleasant sur prise. The lndy seemed scarcely to hnve chanced Ht all. The tlniriilnr part it It nil was that he was tint eon acinus of iinilug cliauged himself. It did uot occur lo him that should his former love meet him without having tieen told who he was sbe would- not recognize blm. "Dear me." he exclaimed, "you hnve ���cnncl.v etinnged nt nil!" "Nor yon," she snld considerately. "And yet." he went on. holding her bnnil In hls nnd looking at her fixedly, "you nre clumped. There Is something -I couldn't tell whnt It Is-thnt Is different from the girl 1 lefl yean agi*." "Have I lost good looks?" 1 "On tbe contrary. I think you bave gained in comeliness. As to yc*itli, you don't seem to have added hair a dozen years to wbat you were wben I left you. You don't look over thirty." At this tbe lndy cast down ber eyes and repressed nu expression of dissatisfaction. Of course a meeting between two lovers one of whom bad beeu married and widowed was not tbe same as It would bave beeu bad they lived in tbe meanwhile for eacb other. Rogers saw at once that be could not begin where be bad left off. There must be a new courtship���not tbat he needed one himself; be wns ready to take bis love right into bis arms, aa be bad done tbe day be left ber, but be bad the good sense to realize that it bad been far different with tbe widow. Not only bad sbe lived a long wblle wltb ber husband and must get used to new conditions, but It Is woman's nature to desire a courtship before a marriage. Indeed, tbe meeting bad all tbe novelty of u new affair. Whenever Rogers would go back to their past intimacy tbe widow would say: "You must remember that In my marriage my engagement with you was obliterated. Since i lien it has had no existence for me. tbougb It may bnve been continued for you. This is not tbe Bame connection. Let us treat It as If we had never met before." Rogers could not but acknowledge the reasonableness of tbis. in one way It pained, In another it pleased blm. It reminded blm that bis love hud been possessed by another, but there wus a freshness lu It that could not be expected from the renewal of nn affair in middle life witb an old flame. His courtship progressed very satisfactorily. He was an exuberant lover and several times came very near spoiling It all by attempting to go too fast Then, too, there were the usual lovers' spats. Tbougb more mature, Delia was just as sensitive ns to the way sbe was treated as during tbeir previous affair, and Rogers had the same difficulty In bringing her around as before. Rut while be showed an experience of years In the treatment of women she seemed us wayward as when a girl. This surprised her lover, but be attributed it to tbe fact that she bad tbe experience of only one man, wblle he bad been thrown In wltb a great variety of women. Considering that they bnd been engaged before, a long courtship tvus required for Rogers lo win tbe second time. Indeed, several times he was tempted to give up the struggle. Finally, thinking It would lie well to assume a more Independent uttitude, be aaid: "I left my affairs In California In WEATHER PROPHETS. Our Ancestors Had a Lore Not to D�� Despised. Primitive, tentative nnj slow a�� were the old world methods of foretelling the weather there can be no doubt that they had a great charm of their own. and gave to tliose wlin practiced them more inducement tn study nature at first baud than do the scientific, up-to-date prophesies of the meteorological office. Perhaps for purposes of practical utility the simple weather lore of um British ancestors did not fall so very short of the mora advanced knowl- edga of to-day. On one point all old-world weather lore is unanimous. It is the advantage that results to health and crop* from liaving seasonable weather. "A winter spring is not worth a pin" waa an axiom in those days. January was expected to he cold, and everyone, judging by the proverbial wisdom of the times, was resigned to it. Bitterly cold too it must have been if we ara to believe thnt "Janvier will freeze the pot on the fire" and that "as the days lengthens tin cold strengthens." Could it, we wondei, have been any consolation t'i freezing men and shivering children to rememlrr that "A green Yule makes a fat Churchyard" or that "in a year of snow the fruit will prow?" February also was looked, on as es- Bcntiully a winter month, As its pro- \ iuce was "to ti I lhe dyke either with tha black or white" tliere was ab- vl ;s!y nothing for it to do but t'i rain or anow. If it wearied of its role and occasionally, by wav of novelty, brought a few warm days to a frost-bound world its only recompense was the ungrateful title of "doi-'ble-fticrd February." A clear condemnation of such temporary alleviation! Shakespeare uses this expression In "Much Ado About Nothing," "Good Morrow, Benedict. Why. what's the matter that ynu have such( a February face? So full of frost and storm uud cloudiness." North of the Tweed (we can readi'.,' believe it) no pretentions to fine weather were permitted to February. "A' i llie months in the year curse a tn'.r Februeer" says one Scotch proverb and another declares: "February an be ye fair The boggs will mend and naething mair." Hoggs, we may mention, for the benefit of our readers being the old Border name for sheep which have not yet been shorn. In most striking contrast to our modern notions March, in proverbial wisdom, is depicted as rather a pleasant sort of month. Rough and ready. perhaps, and a trifle over fond of bluster, but on the whole a good sort with his hands full of benefits, and not altogether an unpleasant companion.
