As these homemade remedies had no appreciable effect, she put if down to nervousness and sighed io think that he would not take a rest. The professor's habits grew more and more irregular.

"Perhaps there is somebody could?" ��������������������������� "Well," said the Dean, "I " Then, with a sudden thought, "You might ask Professor Snyder." "Snyder?" the stranger repeated the name. "Where is he?" To direct the stranger to Professor Snyder's room, the Dean stepped out of: the alcove by the laboratory door and pointed down the long hall of the college building; The stranger thanked him, hoped that he had not given too much trouble, and went towards Snyder's room. The Dean turned again to the laboratory door and raised his hand to take down tho note. His idea was to compare il with some specimens of Professor Snyder's handwriting in his possession. His hand went forward, stopped, and the fingers spread out straight and stiff in a gesture of bewilderment. The- note was not there!

Ho told his wife that he was conducting a series of important experiments for which he could find no time in the afternoons. A man who, in eighteen years of married life, has never been defected in a lie to his wife ean toil iter almost anything and have her believe it. Years of good behavior place a husband on a pedestal from which ihe worst, of appearances cannot displace him. Yet no pedestal is built upon a foundation firm enough to withstand the terrible force of woman *s gossip! ��������������������������� One afternoon the wife of Professor Snyder dropped in to see Mrs. Hopkins. They ran the gamut of calling conversation. The nineteen faculty families were discussed and dissected. Still Mrs. Snyder lingered. steps approached rapidly. He turned to see if it could be the stranger coming back. He would demand the return of the note, which he had no doubt the si ranger had plucked from the door. Put instead of the stranger it was the messenger who had been sent to Ernesta Frost's boarding-house. Breathless, he gasped: " I'hnesta���������������������������not there! f'ed not slept in! Gone!" - An apoplectic Hush - suffused the Dean's face. He choked. As a realisation of what this new tidings meant came over him, if was accompanied by a feeling of responsibility. The scan- ilal must bo suppressed. At least for tho present, lie grasped the panting -tiidenf by the wrist and dragged him along tho hall toward his ollice. Once within the room, he closed and locked the door; tlion fell speechless into his ������������������������������������������������������hair "Professor Hopkins has not been looking well lately," she ventured, after a pause in the conversation. From the prolonging of her caller's stay Mrs. Hopkins was sure that she had como with some particular object, fnstinctely sho felt that this was about to bo revealed, but she was sufficiently circumspect not to manifest any undue interest: So she replied with indifference: ' "I had not noticed one way or the other. Perhaps he is working a little too hard, but he will not listen to me." At first Mrs. Snyder made no reply. A scornful smile curled her lips.. She rose and walked towards the door. Not until she stood on the. threshold did she speak. Then she said decisively: "Yes. ,wo have been talking of that. He spends most of his evenings at the laboratory, doesn't he'?" "Yes." said the unsuspecting Mrs. Hopkins. "He is conducting some im- porta ut experiments.'' "So I.understand, ' said Mrs. Snyder. "Very important! And very scientific!"' She paused to watch the effect of this shot upon Mrs. Hopkins, and enjoyed seeing her wince. Then she continued: "And I believe very interesting! In fact, T think they would interest yon especially!" "1 don't think 1." quite understand!" "T mean���������������������������and say it not as a trouble maker, but as your best friend���������������������������I would make it a point to find out just what these experiments were and who spends tho evenings with the professor while -hc-is--ia*'-i-ng4hc-ni!'-' o'clock, the supper hour, and he was not at home. When he finally arrived -t was evident from his manner that he "was greatly excited over something. He barely spoko to his wife or notieci the children during the meal, and Avhen he had bolted it, he went directly to his study, where he remained until after his wife had retired. On Sunday morning Professor Hopkins accompanied his family to church; but the same abstraction he recently had observed all the time possessed him, and he hardly seemed to be aware of where he was. In the afternoon he put on his hat, saying that lie'must go to the laboratory, and though he returned in time for tea his actions were in no wise '.different from the previous day.������������������������������������������������������ -. That night when he had gone to bed, his wife listened to her husband's labored breathing. She made sure that he slept soundly, then she slipped quietly out of bed, picked up a candle, and crept into the hall, carefully closing Ihe door behind her. Guiding her way by tho dim light, she moved softly down tho stairs into the professor's study. She gave a little cry of satisfaction as her eyes fell on'the black bag. in which he always kept his papers, lying on his desk. Though on six days in the week she was accustomed to put his luncheon iu his bag, she had never before been sufficiently curious to examine its contents. Now,' however, she upset the shabby receptacle, and besran a systematic inspection of what if held. There were some sheets of foolscap carefully folded. She recognised these from their external appearance as examination papers, and put them aside as not worth further scrutiny. There were many smaller bits of paper, some crumpled, covered with the letters and figures of chemical formulae. Though familiar with the appearance, if not the meauing, of these, she went over them one by one. We can always find that which we dread. Mrs. Hopkins' search was rewarded. Hardly believing her eyes, she held one crumpled slip under 'the flickering rays of the caudle, her hand trembling so that she could scarcely hold the paper still enough to read it. liut she did read it, and it said: Saturday. "Dear Pro tensor Hopkins: '' 1 urn ready to go wherever you wish. Have no fear that I will give a hint of your plans to anybody. You may rely on me absolute!}". "Ernesta." Stunned by her discovery, Mrs. Hopkins reeled and fell against the desk, upsetting the candle, which rolled to the door and was extinguished. Then, in the dark, she groped her way to the door and crept" noiselessly upstairs to bed. HIGH PRAISE FOE, G-IN PILLS Smithville, three vcars Out. with ?k. I am now taking great, relief afto?

That is the only modem" departure it has ever made. The admission of young women to its benefits being comparatively a recent innovation, their presence in Graydon has not yet lost its novelty, and each of tho feminine students stands out strongly marked and commented upon by the 'population. But Mrs. Hopkins herself, thoroughly consistent in her lack of interest in matters educational, never had paid the slightest attention to the personnel of her husband's classes. As the sleepless hours wore on she mentally enumerated the people she know in the village; but .hough she tabulated them all, there .vas none among them bearing the name if Ernesta. Thus, by the simple process of elimination, she came to the conclusion that if Ernesta were not i villager, she must bo a student of the college. This point settled, her mind reverted wrathfuily to the contents of the incriminating note. Though slu< had read if but once in the candlelight, every word had burned iteelf into her memorv.

Every morning at eiejil o'clock Mrs. Hopkins set her hii'-band's breakfast before linn. At 8.41, every college day, he left the house. In Ihe afternoons, when his day's class work was done, the professor was ai'custoinod to spend some lime in his laboratory, making experiments the result of which was recorded i'roi'u time to time in various scientific quarterlies of dignified and"leanied dulness. In the evenings, after supper, he was wont to withdraw into his study, there to ponder, far into (ho night, over books on chemistry, metallurgy, and mineralogy. It was generally known that Mrs. Hopkins had little sympathy with her husband's lifowork. Put their home life, in its way, was entirely happy. Every morning, before the professor w:w up, Mrs. Hopkins brushed his f'ofore- the distressed wife could rally to her husband's dcfeu.ee, Mrs, Snyder, her deadly shot delivered, had gone, leaving her alone to face a situation absolutely novel to her. Her first thought was one of amusement at the absurdity that J'osiah Hopkins could be guilty of deceit.

T IIK conglomeration of modes and of sources whence those modes spring is amazing. Every autumn reunion the great dressmakers give is a lesson iu the advantages of daring. No one accepts a groove, but sallying forth intent .upon adventure happens upon divers possibilities that are at once persuaded to serve the ends in view. Thus it is that the rogue of the First Empire stands side by side with the fashions of the Russian peasants and the uniforms of the Czar's soldiers, and no one notices the incongruity, because both are subject to certain laws of line from which not one raodevl swerves. , T������������������ preserve the slim silhouette and the straight and scanty skirt is the avowed^-object. of sonic of' the most successful couturiers.

As a rule, where the aeroplane is at fault the engine is the root of the evil, and one great danger to aviators is overheating of the engine or some part of it. An aeroplane engine has practically to work at full pressure the whole time that the aviator is in the air. A railway engine driver who gets a hot bearing can slacken speed, or send his fireman to nut right. The aviator's greatest safety lies in maintaining a high speed, to slacken which may mean disaster; he cannot attend to the affected part himself and he has no one to help him. The practically unavoidable overheatiug of the engiuo, with the result of a sudden stoppage or loss of power, followed by a headlong dash to earth, is a frequent cause of disaster. Turning to (b), the sea with all its known and charted currents, tides, rocks, and so on, still wrecks ships, but the air is a thousand times more baffling than the sea. Its density and its pressure are constantly changing; the aviator may at any moment fly into an aerial whirlpool, gust of wind, the configuration of the land over which he is flying may introduce sudden dangers not previously encountered, upset all his calculations, and send him smashing to the earth. Personally- the writer has a theory which may explain? one or two inexplicable flying accidents. I believe that there are, so to speak, "holes" in the air, that through causes I have not yet made sure of a vacuum is created in the atmosphere. The aviator flies into this empty space, and without any warning drops'like a gigantic cannon ball. An aeroplane may weigh half a ton or more���������������������������imagine that, if you can, dropping through a "hole'" in the air. As an aviator, the writer has never flown into an aerial crevasse, but as a balloonist he has. Anyway, up in a balloon 1 have more than once known it without'the faintest warning to drop right down fifty or a hundred feet. The -'hole" in the air is the only explanation that seems to fit the phenomenon. ' Now we come to (c) the "human equation"���������������������������in other words, mistakes on the pari of the aviator as a cause oi disaster. A frequent cause of accident, more especially in the earlier days of aviation, was the airman's taking the air at too steep an angle. It is a little difficult ro explain on paper, but iniiigine a man trying to climb up a perfectly smooth inclined piauk or surface which affords him neither handhold nor foothold. So long as the plank is at a moderate angle there wiJl be sufficient friction between it arid the body to enable him to stay on it, even to wriggle his way along. But tilt the plank upward, and at a certain angle" nothing can save him���������������������������ho must fall backwards. Now, in aviation the air is the plank, the aeroplane being on it. If the aviator rises too sharply,' it is like trying to climb up the smooth plank tilted upright, lie cannot do it ���������������������������the machine must drop to earth. True, the skilful aviator, high up in the air, will cut off his engine, and drop to earth at an angle approaching the perpendicular���������������������������this is what they call the "vol plane"���������������������������but he has a margin of safety. As he ncars tho ground he turns the "nose" of tho machine upwards, it curves round and up and rests on a cushion of air to siuk lightly to the ground by its own weight. But if he make the angle of descent too narrow, nothing can save him. Then, of course, the aviator may pull the wrong lever, or mishandle tho elevating or steering gear; these are "temporary aberrations" which are inevitable. So long as men are men they will be reckless. The aviator tries a daring experiment. Tf it comes off. all is well; if it doesn't, there is an end of him.

It must be understood that an aeroplane rises and flies by, so to speak, climbing up an "endless staircaso" of air. Now, it is a mechanical fact that any action is followed by an equal reaction. If the aeroplane climbs over a foot of air, a foot of air goes down���������������������������this is putting it very roughly, for each advance is followed by a slight drop, but we will stick to the broad principle. The aeroplane then forces the air from under it as it rises, with the result that there is a strong and almost, vertical down-draught from it. The machine underneath encounters this, pressure from above, and probably gets it more on one part than another, with the result that, it is tilted forwards, backwards, or to one side or to fhe other at a dangerous angle.

But there are some things which occasion demands to have said. First, the meeting- was devoted to explaining something which needed no explanation, and the real issue which should have been discussed was not brought forward. Overdrafts at the end of the fiscal year are not such an uncommon thing in municipal affairs as to demand a minute detailed explanation, though the desire to explain may be a laudable one. The question .of this or that department costing more than was estimated; or the fact that $100 more or less was spent on City Hall furniture than the council had to spend, does not explain anything. It might be explained that some of the charges mentioned in accounting for the overdraft have really not been paid at all. There is a bill j of $50, legal fees in the prosecution of the burglary case a few weeks ago, which has been left for the new council to handle; also the legal charges in the road law suit. The fire apparatus asked for by the fire brigade has yet to be purchased also.

Complaint was made at the meeting that it required half of j the city's total revenue to main- ! tain the public school, leaving j very little for the other require- i ments of the city. This is quite j true. But it is not so disastrous. I The school must be maintained i at its present standard. It is j going toJ cost more from year to year. It cannot be run at a less cost. We must meet the' cost. But, it is argued, the law prescribes the amount to be assessed for school purposes. It cannot exceed 5 mills of the assessed value of the property on the assessment roll. And the cost of the Enderby school is 9 -mills, 4 mills more than the law allows. Can't you see the remedy? We have been side-stepping the law in order to keep down taxes. We must raise the assessment. The point this paper has argued all along, that Enderby property must be assessed higher if we are to find the revenue to properly run the city, was brought out most forcibly at the public meeting. We cannot meet the requirements of progress unless we are prepared to pay the price. To pay the price, we must have it. It is needless to explain an overdraft. It is of itself an explanation. It means that the demand on our revenue exceeds the supply. It will be up to the new council to increase the supply. And it will be up to every ratepayer to pay the price.

ENDERBY PRESS AND WALKER'S WEEKLY PI ALMBS DISEASE DISFI ED TLl EATMEN'I WAS CURED AT OXCE BY "FRUIT-A-TIVES." Mr. 11. M.archessault, High Constable of tho Province of Quebec, who lives at Si.��������� Hyacinthe,'thought he was going to be disabled for life. , A terrible pain in the back kept him in tho house and under the doctor's uare for months. Nothing seemed to give relief. Then he tried "'���������"ruit-a-tives," tho famous fruit medicine. Note the results. "'Fruil-a-livos" cured me of chronic pain in tho back that was so severe that 1 could not drive my horse," writes Sir. Marchessault.

Tlie frames are made of stir leather eniircly enclosing the eyes o- the horse, and tho glasses used are coi cave and large in size. The groinu seems to tho horse to be raised, anc he accordingly slops high, thinking tha' he is going uphill or lias to step ove some obstacle. This system of spectacle-wearing i; generally adopted while the horse h young, and its effect on his step anc action is said to be remarkable, I' has been ascertained that the cause of > horse's shying is. as a rule, short sight and it is contended that the sight or all horses should he tested, as that to $200 a week for the services of a starter, they can afford to do the same for an impartial judge, who knows the rules and will apply them fearlessly. The parent association should discourage the imposition of fines, where all the evidence points to a case of fraud. The man who deliberately loses rai-e, or thrown a heat', lias arranged to pro lit. far more than the average line which may he imposed, therefore the penalty does not Jit the crime, lruinlred:- liave been defrauded, the public has not seen a genuine race or heat, and in many cases the offender e.-capes altogether and enjoys a sardonic. laugh at the simple minded judges who let the job go t hrough. We admit that judges may see glaring reversals of form and drives which favor the opinion that the teamster had no intention to win tho heat", if is difficult to obtain direct evidence, lint where pools are sold and books made, there is always a way to trace where the money came from and who bet it. The intelligent poolseller and bookmaker knows full well that Ihe prosper ity of the snort depends upon its honesty and that the moment the public get suspicious they cease to speculate. When it simply becomes a game between a few owners and their friends, ihe pool-selling is limited, while the bookmaker takes a glorious chance of being skinned by the jobbers. Meetings of this class have,, been held, but the eventual result has always been that the public, and ��������� respectable horsemen finally stayed away and the association closed its gates. That the majority of fines were properly imposed for cause is proved by the fact that the vast majority of them are not protested, though the party lined can bring his case before the boards for readjustment. Tr' a man is innocent he is not willing, ns a rule, to suffer .under the stigma of guilt and lose from $H)0 to .f">00~for the privilege, lie can easily prove that he, his owner or friends, had I heir money on the horse, or did not bet at all and had no compact with other drivers. Wc take no stock in the claim that as the parent associations get the fines, they rarely reverse ihe judges' decision. Tlie associations are not poor and can afford to be just, and if a driver can make out a good"case we believe he will get a verdict.- It must, therefore, be assumed that the vast majority of'these fines are justified, but that ' very fact, goes to show that instead of a fii'ie, tlie punishment should have been suspension.

This rtilo may not hold for elephants or for giraffes, but it seems from the following account that leopards favor the open- door policy. Jf the door is open, they run; if.if, is shut, they become peevish and begin roughing it. The story below is an extract from a letter of Mr. George Maxwell, written to a friend in the Transvaal'and reprinted iit "The Wide YVido World." Mr. Maxwell, by the way, was with Colonel "Roosevelt last; year, hunting big game in East Africa. The letter reads: _ f am writing this on my back in Nyeri Hospital, as tno result of coming off second best in a flare-up with a huge leopard. -The thing happened on the evening of- November 9th last. About six-thirty p.m.; just as it was getting dark, T took" a'-walk over to Mr. McDougall "s, my nearest neighbor, about three-quarters of a, mile distant, and had dinner -there; afterward we sat talking around the fire. MeDougall's house is a small stone building containing only one room, about sixteen feet by fourteen with tho door in the centre of the wall and the fireplace in a corner. Three nights before this a leopard leopanl at its tail. I never saw a big ger. The bruto was coming at such a speed that it was through" the doorway and nearly on top of us before it could stop. Both of us promptly started shouting at it���������������������������partly to relieve ��������������������������� our feelings! partly ui the hope of saving tho doer What with the shouting, our proximitv! and the lamplight, the leopard was so scared that it became quite dazed It tried to rush out again, but, missing the door, got to the far side of the house, where it kept jumping tip at the walls and windows. McDougall and I continued shouting at it. We thought the episode .rather funny than otherwise and that at any moment the beast would find the door and bolt, having received a fright that would last it a loug time. _ All of a sudden, while it was jumping about, the leopard came against the back of the door and shut it with a bang. Then it- dawned oil me that we were in a bad fix, and no mistake, tor a leopard will fight most despei-: atey when cornered. By this time the brute was in a frenzy of rage at being trapped, and flew round and round the room like a streak of lightning, sending dishes, cupboards, boxes, and every- thing flying. McDougall and I retreat- ed to corners, using our chairs as shields. We had no weapon of any kind, and it was dangerous to move, for the leopard naturally thought we were coming to attack it. All the time my little dog was dashing hither and thither after the infuriated brute, worrying jfc whenever he got a chance. - As [ was nearest the door 1 thought 1 would, make an. attempt-to open it, as otherwise the beast"would undoubtedly finish the,pair of,.us. I meant to go very slowly and only move when its back was toward me, but I had only made my first step when the leopard turned round and with a horrible growl sprang at me with terrific force The light was very bad, and it must have sprung higher than I expected, for it knocked the chair out of my. hands and got some of its claws home in my scalp, ripping ifc like a piece of cloth.
