B.C.\nThe Optimist\nDELIVERED TO ANY ADDRESS IN SECTIONS 1, 5\nAND 6 EVERY DAY FOR\n50c PER MONTH\nFura Will be Cheaper\nThat there is likely to be a drop in the\n1 price of furs next season is the opinion\n| of a prominent Montreal wholesale\ni furrier. Skunk, frequently sold under\nthe name of Alaska sable, has become\nISO fashionable that prices for skunk\nfurs have gone'up tremendously, nearly\n, doubled in fact, during the past two or\nthree years, causing trappers to redouble\ntheir efforts, and half the farmers' boys\nin the country to turn trapper, with the\nresult that the trade is flooded with\nskunk skins, and the opinion is expressed\nthat prices in this fur are bound to come\ndown, even though the appearance\nand splendid wearing qualities of the ful\nwill doubtless keep it quite as fashionable\ni as ever.\nPersian lamb is another fur likely to\ndrop in price, owing to overstocking by\nCiermun dyers, who are now selling many\nj of their lambskins at cost price in preference to holding stock, with ri*k of\ninjury and deterioration, on what may\nprove a losing chance. Muskrat, dyed\nand sheared, sold as Hudson seal, and\nused in immense quantities for coats\nand jackets, has been very popular, but\nincident al reports would seem to indicate that there is some dissatisfaction\nwhen seal dyes have been too strong\nfor the pelt, thereby affecting the\nwearing quality. During the past few-\nseasons there has been a very large\ntrade done with Europe in this fur, but\nthe increase in price and the question\nas to durability have combined to kill\nthe demand there, a demand which is\nnot likely to be renewed until prices\n. have gone down again.\nAnother factor responsible for thc\nthreatened lowering of proices is the\nprobable falling off in the European\ndemand for many kinds nf fur. The\ntendency there ui lhe present time\n! seems to be towards a more exclusive\nuse of their own furs, tu ugainst a previous demand for the smooth, straight-\nhaired furs of this continent.\nHave Too Much to Do\nThe trouble wiih most of the women\nin the world is that they have too much\nto do.\nThey arc not able to specialise in one\nthing.\nWe predict failure when we see a\nman following up two or three lines at\notic\", but what about the woman who\ntries to be nurse, housekce|>er, mother and society woman all at the same\ntime? The wonder is ihat some poor\n-..ul fails in some branch, but ihai all\nwomen do not make botches of iheir\nlives.\nFur one woman who s|>cnds her day\nin idleness, wai.ed on by trained servants, who eook, mend, scrub and take\ncare of her children, there are a dozen who, in addition lo all the ordinary\nhousehold tasks, have to be dressmakers as well and some who, in addition, are forced to attempt lo earn\na living because of the scarcity of means\nand thc present high prices.\nS'.tne day .there is going to be a millennium for the tired woamn, we are\nti Id. Co-o|H-ri.live kitchens, co-ojiera-\ntive nurseries and co-operative sewing\nrooms are going to lighten her burdens so thai she may have time to\nsit down occasionally with a book. In\nthe meantime she must be absolved\nfrom the charge of being superficial,\nfor she really has no time or opportunity to delve deep into any line and\nto do anything really well.\nOUR DAILY RECIPE\nClam Soup\nNow that clams are so plentiful the\nfollowing recipe for clam soup should be\nt ried:\nMince 2 dam hard-shell clams very\nfine, fry 1-2 a mimed onion in an ounce\nof butter, add to it a pint of hot water,\na pinch of mace, 4 cloves, 1 allspice and\n6 whole peppercorns: boil 15 minutes\nand strain into saucepan; add the\nchopped clams and a pint of clam juice\nor hot water; simmer slowly two hours,\nstrain and rub the pulp through a sieve\ninto the liquid; return it to the saucepan and keep it lukewarm: boil :) half-\npints of milk in a saucepan previously\nwet with cold water, which prevents\nburning, and whisk it into soup; dis-\nsole a teaspoonful of flour in cold water,\nadd to the soup for seasoning; heat it\ngently to near the boiling point, pour\nit into a tureen previously heated with\nhot water and serve wiih or without\npieces of toasted bread.\nPRACTICAL HOUSEHOLD HINTS\nTo remove kerosene from the carpet\napply buckwheat fiour, let it remain for\na few hours, and then make a second\napplication, which, after a few hours\nmore, should be brushed of.

McMASTER\nFREIGHT AND PA8SENQI R WENT\n1 Finding Portion of the Raila Bent by\na Landslide He Stopped Oncoming\nExpreaa by Giving tohe Emergency\nSignal.\nJerritt, B. ft, March 20. -The heroism of 17-ycar-old William Lee of\nReefers saved C. P. R. express No. 2\nfrom disaster the other day. Young\nLee was riding on his speeder inspecting the track, and had reached a pcint\na few miles west of Reefers when he\nwas horrified to see an immense rock\nslide coming down almost upon him.\n' He succeeded in getting beyond the\ndanger himself, nnd after the rock-\nslide settled he found that the rails\nhad been badly lient, and that a portion of the track had been carried\naside.\nThe express was due in three minutes and there was no time to lose.\nIt would be im|>ossible to flag the\ntrain at that point because of a succession of cuives. Jumping on his\ns|M*eder and pulling with all his might,\nhe hurried in the direction cf the oncoming express.\nWiih hands and arms outsrtetched,\n'giving the emergency signal, the en-\ngineer of the express saw the young\nwatchman coming towards him nnd\nthe lattar did not stop until the engine\n'whistle told him thai the driver understood his signal.\n!NO TAX ON WEEKLY DANCES\n; Idea of Doing ao Was Mooted in\nCouncil, However\nWhen in committee of the whole\nthe city council laat night discussed\nthe Tn.des Licence Py-law. The question of thc pusible licensing of halls\nlet for regular weekly dances came up.\nThe fact that these regular dances\nform a source of amusemi nt to their\npatrons and profit to their organisers\nseemed to some aldermen to place the\nhalls on the basis of theatres. After a\nlittle talk it was defini ely decided tha<\nit would not do to tax this form of amusement in a cily like Prince Ru|xTt where\nother forms of amusement are few and\nfar bet wet n for the young people.\nFourteen residents rf Block 24, Section\n1, have petitioned the city council for\na sewer to serve this district.\nB.

March 21\nThe Waste of Timber Fires\n\"For every foot of timber that has been cut in Canada by lumbermen, at least\nseven feet have been destroyed by lire.\"\nThis startling statement is made in a bulletin of the Forestry Branch of the\nDepartment of the Interior, lately issued Bulletin N'o. 9, \"Forest Fires of 1909\").\nr \ufffd\ufffd*The author, Mr. II. K. MacMillan, one of the Assistant Inspectors of Forest\nReserves, is a technically trained forester, who has given much attention to this\nsubject. His figures have been based on the latest obtainable data, including a\ncareful estimate of the stand of timber originally standing in the forests of Canada\nand ihai s.ill remaining; the difference between these two, less the amount estimated\nto have been cut by liumbermen represents the amount destroyed by tire.\npJftKvcn this estimate of the ratio of limber burned to timber cut is not as large\nas some given elsewhere. Senator \\V. C. Edwards, the present president of the\nCanadian Forestry Association, and one of the best-known and most successful\nlumbermen of ihe Otiawa valley, is on record as saying that in that valley ten\ntimes as much timlier has been destroyed by lire as has been cut hy the lumbermen.\nThe past summer has brought very prominently to public notice the forest\nlire problem, especially in regard io the fires in the states of Montana and Idaho\nand, more recently, in northern Minnesota, where so many towns were destroyed.\nTlie Canadian Forestry Association hits for years been endeavoring to arouse\npuhlic intention in regard to these fires, and of late the work of the Commission of\nConservation has been largely directed in the same direction.\nNotes and Comments\nTo the list of work done by thc present council as printed in the Optimist\nthree weeks ago must now be added:\nExtended the hours on which the hotel bars may keep open from eleven\nto twelve o'clock.\nThere is one consolation the temperance party may have, Prince Rupert\nhas a strong tem|H*rance man for Mayor.\nM. M. Stephen! proved himself consistent at the Hospital Board meeting last\nweek when he successfully opposed the motion to increase the fees for maternity\ncases at the hospiial. It would never do for a booster like M. M. to help tax the\nbirthrate out of existence.\nThe reciprocity discussions in the East are producing some queer situations.\nThe eighteen insurgent Liberals of Toronto recently organised a great mass meeting\nat which they refused a lie.iring io any speakers un thc other side.\nMost of the ami-reciprocity press are Tor the occasion\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdassuming that trade\nis treason.\nAnother amusing situation is the way in which the country papers after having\nsold space to lhe moneyed nnii-reciprocity interests are writing against it. The\nBowmanville Statesman comos out llat-footcd as follows:\n\"Farmers will be surprised to be told that the articles appearing in this journal\nand nearly all other country newspapers with scare headlines against reciprocity\nare l>eing paid for, presumably, by manufacture!! for who else would spend so\nmuch money to defeat the treaty'.' We are paid $5 a column for space for these\nanti-reciprociiy 'alarmist' articles. Funny, isn't it, that after they have been\nenabled io 'roll in riches\" hy a protective tariff they are striving so hard lo prevent\nsome trade advantage! Ining given farmers, stockmen, fruitmen, and others who\nwill bcnelit by freer trade with our nearest neighbors? Don't you think it high time,\nfarmers, that you made known in some public way your own views on thc proposed\ntariff pad as an offset to the hullabaloo set up by boards of trade, which are dominated largely by manufacturers, bankers, and financial men whose interests arc\nclosely allied with them.\"\nA Dollar Saved .. .\n...

He said that reciprocity would permit the consumer\nto purchase goods on either side of the\nline without paying the present high\ntarilT. Reciprocity wits one step toward\nfree trude und free trade hud made\nGreat Britain the financial centre of\nthe money market of the world. She\nhud also been the birthplace of the\ngreatest industries. The woikingman\nwould be benefitted by this ug.eement.\nSmuggling would be prevented because\nunnecessary. Our coul deposits and\nother minerals would be developed,\ntimber industries flourish, wheat und\nother agricultural products find a ready\nmarket and in every respect Canada\nfrom Atlantic to Pacific would be\nbenefitted by reciprocity.\nIn leading the op|tosition Mr. Wood\nsaid he would present a series of facts\nthat would prove conclusively that the\nreciprocity agreement would be a fatal\nblow to the best interests of Canada.\nHe further stated that reciprocity was\na certain ,tep to annexation and the\ndestructicn of loyalty to the mother\ncountry'-. The implement manufacturers\nof Ontario and Quebec were yet in their\ninfancy and needed protection from their\nlarge corporation rivals across the line.\nCanadian wheat is rigidly inspected\nand a certificate of inspection goes with\nall exported grain. It, therefore, sells\nat a higher figure than American wheat\nin the markets of the world. It will\ncertainly be beneficial lo the American\nmiller to take this wheat free of duty\nto Duluth or other distributing points,\nmix it with poor American grain and\n\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdell the finished product accompanied\nby the certificate of inspection, at I\nthe highest price in the foreign market .\nThis poor grade of Hour, made possible j\nbv reciprocity, will destroy the repu-\ntation of Canadian wheat. It is a plausible argument that 90,000,000 of American\npeople will make a great market fo:\nour wheat but the fact remains true\nthat these people export their own\nwheat products und will only need our\nmin to Increase their export trade.\nRailroads will suffer if not be forced to\ndeclare deficits. Reciprocity will compel\nthem to lose the long haul East und j\nWesl to Atlantic und Pucilic ports its\ntrude will be diverted to the shorter!\nroutes 'North und Southi to the cities j\nof the United States.\nThe reciprocity ugreement said Mr.\nWood, was unconstitutional as the;\ngovernment was not fortified with the'\nmandate of the people. It was not\nB plunk in the puny platform at the\nlast election. The speaker though,\nthut this wus a sufiicient answer to:\nMr. Stuart's cry of loyalty to the\nLiberal party.\nMr. Hansen in supporting the affirms-1\nlive gave a brief review of the history 1\nof reciprocity declaring that in every\ninstance reciprocal relations hud been\nbeneficial to Canada. He also referred\nstrongly to the fiuit und lish industries.\nHis contribution wus well rectived.\nMr. Rogers in supporting the negative\nspent his time in dealing with reciprocity\nas it would effect the natural resources\nand industries of British Columbia.\nHe said that the fishing industry of\nBritish Columbia would be seriously\ninjured, and the fruit industry would\nbe crushed in its infancy.\nThe judges were Rev. Mr. DesBurres,\nRev. Mr. Kerr and Mr. Frank Derry.\nRev. Mr. DesBarres in presenting the\ndecision ably reviewed the points of\neach speaker and staled that although\nit hud been a close contest the judges\nhud decided in favor of the negative.\nCOAL NOTICE\nQueen Charlotte Islands'Land District District of\nSkeena\nTake notice that I, John McLeod of Vancouver,\noccupation broker, intend to apply for permission\nto prospect for coal and petroleum on the following\ndescribed land:\nCommencins at a post planted about eight\nmiles north and three miles west of tho mouth of\nthe Tl-el Kiver and marked J.
