Jan. 30\u2014The British domains of South Africa, so recently the\nscene of war between England and the\nDutch, now iorm the stage of a movement for unity which promises to be\none of the most remarkable conciliations In history, adding to the British\n-empire -a igre-at oonJecu-atton ranking\nalmost with Australia and Canada In\nImportance. Representatives ot the\nfour colonies have been in conference\nseveral weeks on a plan of union.\nCecil Bihodea probably (had little idea\nibefone he died that within ten yealra\nafter the destruction of Dutch independence in South Africa a company\ndominated by such hostile spirits as\n,. Dr. Jameson, who led the raid which\nbrought on the war, -president Stein of\nthe Orange Free State and the two\ngreat Boer generals Botiha and- Dewet,\nwould be conferring amicably for the\n\u25a0purpose of welding the Dutch and Ult-\nlauaers into a semi-independent nation\nunder tlie British flag. More noteworthy still Is the fact that the British\n(progress has. been marked by narmony\nand Is likely to be concluded with suc-\ncesf ts. Another year will elapse before\nthe 'M-.'tfih, African nation can become\na tact.' After Uhe convention has agreed\nupon the bllll first presented by tbe\ndelegates from the Transvaal, the plan\nmust be submitted to the parliaments\nof the four states and thenn will be\nput to the teat of a popular vote.\nProbably the convention will reas*\nsemble then to consider amendments.\nAfter that a ratification act by tbe\nBritish parliament and the signature\nof the king will be necessary to bring\nthe new government into being. Some\ntime tints year's delegation- will visit\nLondon to consider the measure with\nthe colonial office and members of\npraliament. Thus far the proceedings\nhave been secret. The (form of government predicted is a compromise -between unifioajtlon and -eoiifedenatlon.\nMost of the delegates favor something\napproaching the Canadian plan of unification rather than a federation on\nthe Australian system. The present\nboundaries of the four colonies will\nbe abolished and they will be rendered\ninto -similar states for local control.\nAll powers of government not conferred on the local legislature will be\nlexeroised by the central parliament\nhaving an upper and a lower house.\nThe most important question before\nthe congress and on which there is\nlikely to be differences, concern the\nfranchises and the status of the natives. Apart from these there looms\nanother rock of discord against which\nthe union is imoBt likely to be wrecked\nif It be wrecked at all. That Is the selection of a capital. Prelorla and Cape\nTown aire strong rivals. The inhabitants of each consider the possession\nof the capital Indispensable to the proposed -union.\nDISPOSES OF RUMORS..\nAmerican Fleet 8endV No Reports of\nEarthquake,\nTANGIER, Morocco, Jan. 30 \u2014 The\nAmerican battleships Qeorgia and Nebraska came into this port this morning on their way to the western end of\nthe Mediterranean to join the other\nvessels of rear admiral Spetiry's fleet\nprejoaratory to Balling for .Hampton\nRoads.

OR   WITH   APPROVAL  OF. CANADA\u2014DEFENDS DIPLOMACY.\n-LONDON, Jan, 30\u2014The Times, r-e-\nferring to the long; standing complaint\nof the Canadian press against the me-\nmods and traditions of British diplomacy, says that the genertal feeilng\nfn Canada on this subject is something\nnot far short of & deep-seated historic\nsense of grievance against the imperial\ntie.\nllhe Times then proceeds to deal\nfrankly with the immediate grievance\nadding out of the waterways treaty,\nand Bays it is an absolute misrepresentation of tacts to say that the routine\nof British diplomacy is withholding\nfrom Canada the tennis of the treaty..\nSo far as is Known here the treaty has\nnut been published in the United\nStates, and it could only be so published by a total disregard of international\nusage and etiquette. It had only been\ncommunicated to the United States\nsenate -because the senate's sanction\nwas essential to its passage Into law.\nIt may, 'however, be held in Canada\nthat while constitutional necessities\n.account, for the circumstances which\ncaused the corop-laint they do not remove the sense of 'popular grievances\nagainst the system which decides quts\ntlons affecting Canadian interests with\nout proper reference to Canadian sentiments. If this again does not misrepresent Canadian views, it betrays\nan equal misconception of the case.\nThe treaty, in point of fact, was diaft-\ned by an officer of the Canadian government and every amendment was\nmade at the suggestion or wiith the ap-\nirpoval of that government. Its tecmr\nare therefore known -as well ln Ottawa as at the White House,- where\nthe text itself has not yet heen received.\nThe Canadian public is perhaps like\na very small section of the British;\nthey may hold that no treaty should\nbe -concluded hy the ministers without\nroflerence to \u25a0paJrllamertt. If so, they\nhave only to make the fact known to\nthe government which they themselves elect.\nWith reference to tlie Canadian demand for a representative at Washington, The Times thinks sudh could not\nbring so powerful an influence'to bear\nas a special representative sent for a\nspecial task In hand. \"Nor could he\nEipeak with equal force solely as the\nrepresentative of the dominion. Armed\nstrength in the background, as recent\nevents in Europe plainly show, Is still\nthe only thing to which diplomacy can\n'look for effect. If Canada desires the\n\u25a0power of the empire to invest Iher representatives with its unrivalled force\nand argument she must accept tihe\n-conditions on which alone that power\n\u25a0can be bestowed.\"\nThe Times concludes: \"It wou'd t>9\ndifiouk to show the dominion anything\nto gain by holding aloof from the support of British diplomacy or of quarrelling with the -conditions whereon\nthat diplomacy Is 'based as Instanced\nhy the extent to which Canadian diplomacy is hiimil tapped tlhrough the absence of imiperlal sun-port in the present negotiations with France.\"\nSLIGHT EARTHQUAKES.\nNo Serious Damage Done by Shock In\nNorthern Spain.\n\u25a0MADRID, Jan. 30\u2014AM communication with south-drn Spain and with\n'Barcelona fs uninterrupted and normal and report sfrom England relative\nto a disastrous earthquake and a tidal\nwave are luntrue.

A\nheavy fall of snow, succeeding rainfalls throughout the night, filled the\nstreets with slippery slush which\nthreatened to delay all means of trans-\nortation in the city and suburbs except\ntihe subway. The fall of snow began\n(before daylight and the employees of\nthe street railway lines and railroads\npromptly attacked it In a desperate effort to keep uhe lines open.

W. Power, Kaslo, B. C.\nSome day, many centuries from now,\nmining In the Kootenays may become\nan Industrv ot the past. The mineral\nveins, both low and high grade, may in\ntime be worked out, stripped of their\ntreasures and left a maze of debris-\nfilled stopes, a mute reminder of man's\nonce eager search for wealth.\nBut while the possibility of the ultimate extraction of this section's mineral wealth is a question there is no\nreason to suppose that if that time does\narrive no part of the Kootenay-Switz-\nerland will be robbed of its scenic attractiveness. Our rugged hills are a\nfeature of the country that can and will\noutlast Nature's great despoiler\u2014man.\nHe may gouge minerals and coal from\nunwilling rocks; he is bound to strip\nthe valleys and plateaus of their timber and will rob the Kaslo and Lardo\nmarble quarries of their beautiful stone\nond erect courthouses, postofflces and\nchurches therewith, but all the men in\nthe world, aided by all the horses and\nsteamshovels In existence could not,\nif they wanted to, rob the Kootenay\nmountain landscape of its scenic beauty\niu *a thousand years.\nWe, who by good fortune are residents of West Kootenay, may class our\nmountain scenery as an asset. True,\nIt Is not a big factor in the making of\nour bank accounts as yet. There are\nnot many who realize its possibilities\nIn regard to this. Dut the time is not\nfar distant when the attractiveness of\nour hills and our peerless summer climate will bring Into the country many\ngolden ducats of tourist money each\nyear.\nThe Kootenay lake section, rich as\nit Is ln mlneralsr timber and land capable of producing the highest grade temperate zone fruits, will very shortly become one of America's playgrounds.\nThere are a number of scenic playgrounds for us to compete with\u2014hut at\npresent they are ahead of us in reputation, but In that only. Gradually the\noutside public will awalte to this fact,\nand when this happens, passenger trains\nwil be coming In over the \"Crow\" line\nIn the summer time in two or three sec-\nttlons and the Great Northern, if it\nwishes to get its share of a very lucrative traffic, will he under the necessity\nof making provision for the taking out\nof a few kinks of the S. F. & N.\nBut unless these railways change\ntheir attitude towards this section, but\nlittle thanks will be due them for this.\nThe Canadian Pacific railway has a\nseries of mountain resort hotels at different points along the main line, Prom\nthese inns the big railway gathers a\nharvest of shekels each summer. Tourists leave the shekels. The advertise-\nlng bureau of the railway proclaims\nbroadcast the mountain marvels of\nthose hostelrys\u2014hence the tourists.\nKootenay lake has equal, if not superior attractions lo offer, but the C. P. R.\nhas not as yet commenced to advertise\nthis fact.\nThe Great Northern apparently, Is\nnot out for tourist business. A few\nthousands spent yearly by the Great\nNorthern in advertising Kootenay lake\nattractions would help out the passenger business on the main line considerably and make the S. F. & N. a splendid\nrevenue producer for four or five\nmonths in the year.\nBefilnnnlg at Nelson, on the West\nArm, we may in imagination make a\nhurried run over a few of the points\nof interest. You will find along the\narm, between Proctor and Nelson, many\nVery choice bits of scenery. While it\ndoes not possess the ruggedness characteristic of the main lake It has a\nbeauty of its own. The effects are\nsofter and the comparatively narrow\nriver-like lake winds around many projecting points, dense with cottonwoods\nand rich green vegetation. The water\nedge is flanked in many places by rapidly expanding orchards which run\nright to the bases of the mountains.\nThe latter average about seven thousand feet ln height and are of very soft\noutline and cleft by many narrow valleys with an occasional glacier showing\nbeyond.\nThere are two occasions on a summer's day when the West Arm scenery\nappears at its best, one of these Is any\ntime between six and nine o'clock on\na morning when the sun Is shining\nbright. The canyons to right and left\nare a purple shade on one side, the hills\nto the northwest bathed In a golden\nhue, filmy clouds of white mist sometimes rise like spectres from the river\nand add another touch of beauty to the\nscene, while the cottonwood-coveredi\npoints are contrasting masses of dense\nfoliage and the curving yellow shoreline gleams beautifully In the morning\nsun. Very often, at the opposite end\nof a summer day, still more beautiful\neffects can be observed. At about seven\no'clock In the evening may be viewed\nsome very striking sunsets. This time\nlt is the south eastern hills that are\ncapped witli a gold, deeper and more\nruddy thnn that seen on the other side\nin the earlly morning, Away in the\nsouthwest; where the river valley apparently narrows to meet the outside\nworld, the sky becomes a maBs of\nchanging colors that are simply magnificent. The .bright hues are reflected\non the mlrror-llke water and the whole\ncombination recalls childhood dreams\noil fairyland. A ride upon a pulsing\nsteamer along the west arm at the\nhours mentioned Is Invariably filled\nwith delight.\nAfter entering tbe main portion of\nKootenay lake, the scenic aspect\nchanges, especially    it Uie   traveller\nheads northward. Tbe mountains be- !\ncame higher and more rugged In outline and are snow-capped, ln many\ncases, all the year round. At the very\nextreme north end of the long body of\nfresh water, the ranges tbat flank the\nlake, Purcell to the right -and Selklrks\nleft appear to come together in one\ngreat mass of ice and snow-topped\ngranite. There are few views to compare with that for coolness on a warm\nsummer day. Here too, the lake is\nmuch wider and the water a deep blue,\nreflecting a sky that will stand comparison with the best to be seen ln sunny\nItaly.\nOutside of the lake scenery itself\nthere -are many points ot interest to\nattract the tourist. For Instance, he\nmay stop at Rlondel and see one of the\nbiggest lead and zinc mines in all Can-\nsuperb views of Kootenay lake scenery to be obtained anywhere can be\nhad from Kaslo. Among these may- be\nmore particularly mentioned Mount\nLolti, a steep Matterhorn-Uke pinnacle\nof ten thousand feet. All the year round\nits apparently perpendicular sides are\nribbed with green ice and every summer rain storm at the lake level whitens Its bare grey granite sides with\nsnow, lt Is almost due east of Kaslo\nand at sunset, on bright days, after the\nlake valley, the narrow cracks of canyons and bench lands are wrapped In\ntwilight's mantle, the giant pinnacle\nsoars aloft, a gleaming beautiful peak,\nthe lower slopes fading away to a deep\nrich purple that merges into the darker shadows below.\nKaslo is noted for many things, its\nromantic early   day   history, the   big\n\u00a9he fails $tewaV\ncosy inns at Lardo and the point may\nbe made the headquarters for many interesting explorations.\nIn a previous paragraph lt was stated\nthat looking up from the south the\nnorthern end of the lake appeared to\nhe walled by the coming together of\nthe flanking mountains. From Lardo\nthis will be discovered to have been J\nan Illusion. It will be round that the\nnorthernmost end of the lake Is fringed\nwith meadow lands that gradually elve\nplace to dense timber growths further\nalong. The Lardo, a good sized river,\nwinds Its way through the valley. This\nstream Ib formed by the junction of the\nupper Lardo, Duncan river and Meadow\ncreek. Each of these drains a wide\nvalley, rich in fruit and farm lands\nand protected by serried ranks of mineral-veined mountains.   From   ten   to\nSUNDAY ..:.......

At Alnsworth a week\nor two may be very profitably spent In\nvisiting the different points of interest,\nfor aside from its historical associations ihls little mining camp, which\nrests on the side of a hill sloped like\nthe roof of a church, has many things\nto show.    There are the hot springs,\nKootenay lake trout that are to be\nfound in the waters near the town, for\nbeing the centre of an extremely resourceful country and more latterly for\nthe triumphs it has achieved In the\nproduction or high-grade apples, plums\nand cherries upon the expansive bench\nlands surrounding that town. All of these\nfifteen miles above Lardo, along the\nrailway, exists natural scenery that for\npure beauty, individuality and magnificence, has no peer in all the world.\nImagine if you can a wild meadow land,\nflanked in many places by great forests\nof British Columbia Umber, add to this\nsome score of near-by peaks eight or\nA Kootenay Lake Sc.ne-Harvestino Apples on James Johnatone's Fruit Ranch Oppo.lt. N.laon.\nthe caves (very few Kootenay people\nknow of the wonders contained therein)\nand the mines. Some day someone will\ncome along and build a comfortable\ntourist hotel at Alnsworth, equip It with\nfacilities for using the boiling hot\nsprings water for bathing and curative\npurposes, advertise the fact that the\nhotel ts there and make a million. There\nare plenty of other hot springs hotels\nthat guarantee a two week's cure of\nrheumatism and other troubles but none\not them have Alnsworth's combination\nof lake and mountain scenery, to which\nmay be added fishing for gamey Kootenay lake trout or prospecting In the\nhills with the possibility of making a\nstake out of a mineral discovery. As\nthe latter Is an uncertain thing it is\nbest not to depend too much upon it\nbut ln season you can safety bank on\ngetting the trout.\nAn hour's steamer run from Ainsworth northward, lands the tourist at\nKaslo, the centre of a very Interesting\nsection of the country. There is no\nmore beautifully situated olty in all\nCanada than Kaslo.  Probably the most\nresources will mean much wealth to her\npeople In the not distant future but It\nis safe to predict that her scenery and\nattractiveness of location will In itself,\nat no distant date, prove a veritable\nmine for a one-time sliver mining camp.\nProm Kaslo the tourist may visit several very big glaciers, more particularly\nthe great Kitchener glacier, which lies\namong granite peakB at an altitude of\nabout 9,000 feet. Around Whitewater,\nfifteen miles by rail from Kaslo. are\nmany high peaks that would test the\nendurance and skill of the most enthusiastic devotees of the alpenstock.\nThese wild mountain fastnesses are the\nhome or mountain goats and let the\ntourist-hunter bag one if he can.\nTwenty miles north from Kaslo, the\nnorthern end of navigation on Kootenay lake and the southern terminus\nof ui C.

Has America any\nbetter to show?\nSo much for fairyland scenes. How\nabout something stupendous, breath-\nknocking, crushing? Have we that?\nYes, at Argenta, almost across the lake\nfrom Lardo. Two miles along an excellent wagon-road from here and we\nreach Hamitl creek.'\"' The brawling\nstream Is crossed by means of a bridge,\nthe road turns sharply to the right and\nthe traveller gazes In astonishment at\na narrow, Wall-street like opening in\nthe great bulk of the Purcells. A' hundred feet further and the -road plunges\nInto the cleft and winds through it, sometimes upon a narrow shelf with thousands of tons ot rock projecting over\nhead, now suspended over a raging tor- I\nrent and anon almost at the creek level. '\nThis Is the famous Hamill creek canyon, undoubtedly one of. our greatest\nscenic marvels.    Almost perpendicular\nthe grim walls of lime-rock on either\nside rise hundreds of feet upwards.   No\nsound can be heard   but the   hoarse\ngrumbling of a very Insignificant looking Btream that has been-.gnawing out\nthat awful chasm since countless centuries before the pyramids were built.\nThe wagon road Is a very good one and\nthe walking or riding pleasant.   High\non some of the wall-like cliffs may be\nseen a number of moving white specks.\nA field glass inspection shows that they\nare goats.   They, scramble over apparently perpendicular surfaces'like flies.\nIt is an easy matter to lose interest in\nthe scenery while watching the goats.\nYou hold your breath as a particularly\nbig and daring one skips from ledge to\nledge.   There\u2014he's tumbled\u2014a    thousand-foot   sheer v drop\u2014won't   he   bt\nsmashed\u2014poor creature\u2014no, he's safe.\nYou can watch all day for accidents\nthat you think are going to happen but\nthose white creatures never miss making connections   with   the   particular\nledge they are speculating on.   If you\nstay long enough the idea begins to\ngrow upon you that    It would   be a\nsource of much Inward satisfaction to\nyou If one of them did go down.   And\nif you camp there all night and still see\nthem nibbling around in the same place\nwhen you get up iu the morning, the\nspirit of murder takes possession of\nyour soul and you want to go up there\nand knock them down with a club. But\nthe goats are safe.\nAt the end of the canyon you come\nto the Argenta mine's camp. Here the\nwagon road terminates. If further time\nis at your disposal you may proceed\nfor about thirty miles along the creek,\nby a fairly passable trail, and reach the\nsummit of the range between East and\nWest Kootenay. You will remember that\nEarl Grey made the trip in the fall of\nthe year just passed and upon his return to Ottawa wrote a most enthusi-\nastlc letter to Premier McBride, describ-\ning the wonders of that trip. He asked\nthat steps be taken to make the route\nstill easier to traverse and suggested\nthat provision be made for reserving a\nnatural park at the summit, stating that\nhe would, if circumstances permitted,\nestablish with his family a summer\ncamp at that point next August or September. Further testimony is unnecessary.\nIf the tourist Is not able to go over\nto East Kootenay he may reach a high\naltitude from the Argenta mineB' camp\nand have a good trail all the way. This\ntrail takes him to summit of Lavina\nmountain, with an altitude of between\neight and nine thousand feet. Prom this\nspot can be had one of the finest mountain views In British Columbia.   In all\ndirections the sky Is bounded by a mass\nof jagged peaks and great glaciers\u2014the\nsky-line of the Kootenays.   On one side\ncan be seen  the whole of the north\nend of Kootenay lake, spread out like\na map.     To the north lies beautiful !\nHowser lake, embosomed between the\ngiant peaks of the united Purcells and\nSelklrks.    Scores of deep purple canyons can be seen away down below and\nfrom them comes a deep-voiced chorus,\nsung as only mountain waters can sing\nwhen hurrying   to their Nirvana\u2014the\nsea.   To the west rises one particularly\nmajestic peak, one that Is a white and\npurple glory.     That peak is between\neleven and twelve! thousand feet high\nnnd Is probably the great grand mogul\nof all the Kootenay mountains.   Along\nthe lake sides, on the benches, appear\noccasional columns of blue smoke, the\nadvance guard ot the land-clearers, the\npioneers of West Kootenay's   coming,\nfruit Industry.     Somewhere from the\nLardo valley comes the shrill whistle\nof a locomotive and from the lakes the\nhoarse answering   call of a .steamer.\nThese sonnds come as man's defiant\nreply to the challenge of the mountains\n\u2014the grim sentinels that   for untold\ncenturies have been guarding Nature's\ntreasures until the time when the rest-\n. less Anglo-Saxon,   should . claim them\nfor bis own. .\n\u2022*^$>^>\"$<*2>-^^\nUnless It's a Good Store\nIt Will Not Pay to Advertise It\nUnless you know a person-\u2014unless that person comes into your life\nln some way\u2014you are not greatly concerned about whether he 'is good\nor bad, desirable or objectionable.\nIt's so with a store.

She bad begged for time\nto think, a space In which to analyse\nthe emotions surging ln iher breast.\nMoreover, she half thought she loved\nhim and because she was a product of\nthe city and had dug deep In the prlnt-\n\u25a0ea philosophy of life, she wanted her\nbrain to Bit ln judgment on her heart.\n\"i know what you- would say,\" im-\neptuousty declared Jim, the lover. \"I\nam nearer the animal than' you; when\nfatigue follows a satiated Joy' of working my recreation la rest\u2014physical\n\u25a0comfort and sleep. I find nothing to\ngrip me in books written by men\nwhose lives have been craoniped and\nnarrow, by men with water in their\nveins Instead of rich red blood.\"\n\"No, no, Jim; It's not that,\" interrupted Edith.\n\"But tt is -Just that. You kneiw I am\na college man. Not from one of your\neastern Institutions, true, but I fancy\nour North Dakota branch of education\nwill be found the equal of its older relations In New England. I went to\nPlease lather. He was a tpoor man and\nfelt that he had missed much foe-cause\nhds iwhool days had been few. That\nhis son need not suffer this handicap\nin life, he made many sacrifices.\n\"I am -grateful to him for the love\nthat prompted this self-denial, and- I\nam glad that I have what learning t\nbrought iback with me, but I-resign all\ninterest in morbid, fleshly decadence\nfor God's 'gocd out of doors.\"\nAnd Stuart looked at the girl before him wonderlngly, with hia eyes\nglowing with love of her.\n\"Leave me .alone, Jim. No, not another word. I huiiflt think. Good night\nJim.\" and she watched him go out of\nthe door and across the prairie.\n.Year before a palmist had told her\nt)i?t her head would rule her heart.\nHe had called attention to the ipeculiar\nformation of the Hues of her left hand\nand had pointed out the head line that\nran straight across the palm, obsoui^-\ning and dominating the lesser line that\nrepresented the heart.\nIn a measure she believed it, all her\nlife she had been intensely mental,\nand had plunged Ear into the writings\nof men and women whose apostolic\nmissions are of -discontent.\nWhen she collapsed physically under\nthe strain of her labors as teacher in\na city school the physician had imperatively ordered iher to get to the open\ncountry If she longed to live.\nAlone In the world, she could not indulge in Idleness, and being exiled\nfrom the school room, she was at a\nloss which <path to take. A friend suggested that phe enter a homestead in\nthe west and it had aippealed to her.\niHer savings were sufficient to pajy\nfor the necessary labor In cleaving and\n. breaking, the land until the *ropa were\nready for harvest, and she had confident assurance that her work would\nsome day repay her. As an investment\n'both financial and physical it delighted her.\nStuart met her in the office of the\nlocator in the little town which was the\nrailway station nearest to her destination. One learns to read' men nnd women at first sight in the big. pulsing\nwest -and no half trust is 'given;\nShe was in need of guidance -and her\nnew found acquaintance became her\ncoqnsollor and friend. \"When she spoke\not getting men to help build the two\nroom house that was to be her home\nhe came himself.\n(When site offered him the current\n(wage he accepted It, because he understood how Impossible it was to do\notherwise, but afterwards he sent othe.'\nmen and contented himself with suggestions that In reality amounted to\nsuperintendence.\nThus two. years had slipped by. Her\nhealth had returned, the giOW in her\nchecks told that and. the life in the\nopen had reinforced her for her old vocation If she cared for it.\nShe believed It her career, but the\nglama;- of existence close to nature\nheld a charm Bhe could.not deny and\nthere was confined in her mind as to\nthe better choice.'\"   -   L\nThen came Stuart's love. She had\ngrown to like him very much, but with\n\u2022a reservation that he did not measure\n' up to the ideal she had cherished. She\nbelieved she demanded mental sympathy no  less than physical caresses.\nTo make a -perfect union the man\nmuat appreciate with her the hooks\nthat held her and they would penetrate\ntogether the mysterious pathB ot learning to wisdom. Therein was Stuart\nlacking. !  \u2666\nSlumber would not come at bidding\nthe night that Stuart told bis love. She\ntossed fretfully as -she tried,to evade\nthe problem before her. Like memories of pain, it refused banishment.\n\"t)o 1 love him? Is he necessary to\nmeT He Is -dear as a friend. I know\nbut beyond that\u2014what?\" she said to\nherself.\nWhen sleep eame it ;was -troubled\ndreams k Intruded and she thought she\nsaw herself and Stuart gaitoplng'slde\nby side over the prairies to the westward. -Behind them waa an ocean of\ntire, the crackling of flames -sounded1 in\nher ears, she could feel tbe hot wind\nbom in the heart of the burning grass\nblister her cheek and neck.\nOn and on, with *h<* ma-rein of safety\ngrowing mrrower until within a dozen\njumps of the furrow that would balk\nthe fire; her horse stumbled In a\nfopher hole, regained hU poise, blun\ndered again and she was thrown to the\nprairie.\n\"Jim!\" she cried.\nThe flames were now upon her, lie\nslid* from his horse, gatnered her in\nhis arms, holding her lace close to his\nbreast to shield her from suffocation\nand staggered aotoss the safety line\nwith the angry flames turning to a sullen, dead red, as if crying out maledictions on her rescuer fof depriving thenl\nof their prey.\n\"Jim, my God, Jim!'\" she shrieked\nIn her delirium. \"Suppose I had lost\nyou.\"\nThere was a tapping at the door;\nconsciousness slqwly returned to her;\nBh\u00a9 shook recollections of the nightmare from her.\n\"What's tbe matter Edith? Are you\nhurt?\"\n\"No; I'll ibe out in a minute. Walt\nand she hastily dressed,\n\"You're ill,\" he exclaimed when she\nappeared.  \"You are as pale as a ghost\"\n\"Oh, Jim! I've had such a dream,\"\nshe -said.\n\"Dreams are silly things.\" he said.\n\"Surely you would not let one frighten\nyou?\" he soothingly said.\n\"But this one did.

And your answer?\" he\neagerly ran to her.\n\"Yes, Jim, I love you,\" and in the\nembrace that tfolllowde disappeared the\nartlficalitles of troublesome philosophies in tho depth of an emotion primitive and elemental.\t\nNEW YORKFASHION LETTER\nNEW YORK, Jan. 30\u2014-No woman today aspires to resatnble the pale, willowy creatures of the semi-invalid\ntype of fifty years ago. All that Is now\nchanged. Girls now indulge in very\nkind of sport, athletics and outdoor\namusement that can be thought, of.\nIn this connection it is to be noted that\ndress also has undergone a change owing to this attitude ot niind. This is\ntrue particularly ln the matter of automobile clothes; but as a matter of\n.fact each sport has Its own dress. If\nthe woman be rich there Is a gown for\neach form of its indulgence, If of moderate means there must be at least\none or two that will serve several purposes.\nAt this time of year the skating costume Is given first thought.\nOne of the most elegant materials as\nwell as' the warmest Is velvet. Fur\ntrimmings or garments of fur are of\nocurse the proper accompaniment to a\ndress for this sport. For the head, unless one wishes to be very simple and\nwear a hood, nothing could be more\nappropriate than the fur- hats now so\nfashionable. It should be moderate in\nfaize,\nSkirts might be thought to be narrow when made after the present style\nbut those of the newer 'modes are now\nmade with extra pieces set in below\nthe knees. One of these Is', a nine-gored\nplaited model that is clo?e, fitting with\ntiny plaits over the gores and stitched\ndown close to the knees. The plaits\nare omitted at the hip seams but under\nthe side portions at the side seams\nthere are small extra pieces put in.\nAnother skirt has four gores and a\npanel on. each side of narrow plaits and\netlll another lias six gores with a set\nof plaits set in the front just below\nthe knees.\nAny of these skirts would be In gcofl\ntaste for a skating costume, One thing\nmust be remembered In the skating\nskirt\u2014that it must be short, but allowance must be made for the raise to the\nfigure when on the ice. AH skirts have\nthe high waist line in sporting costumes as well as in the dress skirt\nand this Idea is another aid to comfort\nand the good hang of the gown.\nBright colors are much affected by\nFACTS\nFOR SICK\nlYDlA. E. PINKli\nNo other medicine has been so\nsuccessful in relieving the suffering\nof women or received so many genuine testimonials as has Lydia K.\nPinkham's Vegetable Compound.\nIn every community you will find\nwomen who have been restored to\nhealth by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Almost every\none you meet has either been benefited by it, or has friends who have.\nIn uie Pinkham laboratory at\nLynn^Iass, any woman anyday may\nsee the flies containing over one million one hundred thousand letters\nfrom women seeking health, and\nhere are the letters in which they\nopenly state over their own signatures that they were cured by Lydia\nE. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.\n\u2022Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable\nCompound has saved many women\nfrom surgical operations.\nLydia E. Pinkham's Vegetablo\nCompound is made from roots and\nherbs, without drugs, and is wholesome and harmless.\nThe reason why Lydia E. Pink-\nham'B Vegetable Compound is so\nsuccessful is because it contains ingredients which act directly upon\nthe feminine organism, restoring it\nto a healthy normal condition.\n\u25a0Vybmen who are suffering from\nthose distressing ills peculiar to their\nsex should not lose sight of these\nfacts or doubt the ability of Lydia\nE. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound\nto restore their health.\nthe foreign women lor such a sport. A\npretty costume was of wine color cloth\ntrimmed with a light brown sable. The\nekirt had the usual sheath-Hke fit until it reached the knees, where an Inverted Plait had been inserted at each\nseam but laid bo carefully that it was\nnot easily delected until you are close\nto the.iwearer. The coat was loose like\nthose one sees so many of this winter,\nwhich have little curve except at the\nside seams. The dlrectoire collar and\nrevers and cuffs were of sable. Tbe\nhat iwas of cable also, ornamented with\none simple feather ln a darker shade\nof brown. Tlie muff was of sable and\nthe shoes were of brown leather, aa\nwere the gloves.\nFor the automobile the coat should\nbe long and roomy, for often one desires to wear a heavier coat or sweater underneath. Again, many of the\nnew automobile coats are lined with\nfur, sometimes of an expensive quality\nbut oftener of squirrel or of muskra-\nor   some of the lower priced . skins,\nHOCKEY\nMOYIE vs. NELSON\nDON'T  FORGET THE BIG GAME\nAHonday  Nj|g-ht,  Feb, 1st\nGame starts at 8.30 city time.

Idleness\nIs a crime and Is so treated and every\nself-respecling citizen must work for\na living at whatever labor lis or the\nstate may find convenient.\nBut as tihe economic conditions\nthroughout the world are such that the\nsupply of labor1 is often In excess of\nthe demand the Swiss early undertook\nthe solution of the problems of tlie\nunemployed. For the benefit of the\ncommunity as well as the individual',\nit became evident that a man out of\nemployment if l\u00a3*t to his own devices\n-was liable to take the road and acquire\nidle habits, just as he very frequently\ndoes in America at tihe present time.\nNow no one in Switzerland is allowed\nrelief because he is ont of work, since\nhelp in this way only encourages idleness besides being un expend to the\ncommunity. The unemployed are\nroughly divided Into three classes,\nloafers, unemployable and unemployed.\nLoafers Include drunkards, beg^aiw.\netc. and are incarcerated In a sort of\nworkhouse, under miiliyury discipline*.\nwhere they are required to work hard\nIn return for their board and lodging.\nTho prisoner leaves the Institution\nonly when the authorities deem him\nfit. So profitable have these prisons\nbecome that they are not only self-\nsupporting, 'but are in many cases a\nsource of income to the state.\nThe unemployable are given every\nopportunity to make up for lack of\nknowledge or disadvantages which\nhave placed them In this position.\nEvery precaution is Uken to prevent\nthe rising generation going out into\nthe -world unequipped. All schools\nprovide technical courses which are\ncompulsory, for both boys and girls.\nNight schools are provided for apprentices who have by any chance missed\nthese opportunities in their childhood\nThe government requires that children\nbe taught that alcohol In any form is\ndangerous. In fact temperance Is not\nonly encouraged but Insisted upon\nthroughout the country. Temp-rance'\nsocieties include alt those that have\nfor their object the bettering of the\nworking classes, and they are assisted\nby the government.\nFor the unemployed there are labor\nbureaus where they are helped to obtain work. Much trouble is taken to\ndistinguish between the deserving\nworkers temporarily out of work and\nthe loafing class. This is comparatively easy -because every laborer In Switzerland carries papers from the mu-\nnicipullty showing his skill, where -he\nlias worked and when. For the help\nof these men who are looking for\nwork there are relief stations, maintained partly by -.private subscription,\nand quite apart from poorhou-e Institutions, where the deserving workman\nmay obtain rest and food for a few\ndays while In search of work. In addition to this t\u00a3e labor bureau does all\nIn Its power to assist a man In finding\nwork. In many districts Ithefle men are\ngiven work In the municipalities where\nmuch of the public work is held over\nuntil the months when labor la scarce\nand laborers plenty. But woe betide\nany man who refuses labor of any\nkind wlhen offered to him. A note is\n\u25a0f.nde of the fact and he loses his\nright to assistance from the relief bureau.\nIn 1890-91 labor conditions were at\ntheir worst. The workers appealed to\nthe government; Inquiries iwere instituted throughout the country as to how\nserious itihe-problem had become with\na -view to finding a solution. It was\nat this lime that a prominent labor\nleader brought forward a scheme for\ninsurance agaJInst utheniiplloyment. Afl-\nter much discussion there was organized at Berne in Aiprll, 1891 the Municipal Bureau for Insurance against unemployment. This insurance was voluntary and while assisted by the municipality could hardly be called an\nunqualified success at the cud ot the\nfirst four years. The question of Waking the insurance compulsory was considered, but opposition made that undesirable. Meanwhile the insurance\nbureau was reorganized and the next\nten years saw It on a better basis, in\nfact, it might have been independent of\nthe municipal 'grant In 1906. Many\nproblems involved are still being\nworked out, but already the insurance\nagainst unnuployimmt In Switzerland\nha3 gone: beyond 'the experimental\nstage. Each laborer of the Berne community under 60 years of age and able\nto work, may. become insured by paying 70 centimes (about 14 cents) per\nmonith. For this he is allowed remuneration Tor every idle day under 60\ndays, during December. January and\nFebruary, Tllis does not apply to any\nwho are Idle front choice, iwlho have refused work, or who are out on strike..\nFor the first .30 idle days the laborer\ngets a franc' and a half (30 cents) a\nday If alone, ur two trance If be has a\nfamily. For Ihe remainder of the time\nhe gets whatever the directors can afford, from 16 to 30 cents.\nThe bureau Ib carefully looked after\nboth by the directors and by the workmen themselves. The manager of the\nbureau is in charge of the labor bureau\nas well, so Is in a position to locate\nwork If any is to be had. The insured\nare allowed lu travel half fare on the\nrailways and in every way are assisted\nto find work.\nbe no doubt. The theme with which\nboth these speakers dealt was the\n-graft and corruption tihat has flourish-\ned fn connection with the dispensing\nof dominion government patronage at\nVancouver. Both speakers in unmeasured terms condemned the patronage\nsystem which Mr. Joseph Martin hae\noften said, has been administered by\n\u25a0MV. Robert Kelly just as It suited tbat.\ngentleman's convenience and purposes.\nJust what the effect of their remarks\nwill have on the standing of Doctcn\nDavidson and Kendall in their party's\ncouncils time will tell, but the Incident\nshows that the existence of graft in\nconnection with the administration of\naffairs by the. Ottawa government ia\nnot merely a political cry on the part\nof the opposition, as friends of 'the\ngovernment have attempted to make it\nappear.\nThe Grand Trunk Pacific is borrowing $5,000,000 more In London and the\nCanadian government is borrowing\n130,000,000.

The extended notice given by the\nToronto Globe was reproduced last\nweek:\nWe have beiore us the Annual Review Number of tlie Nelson Dally\nNews, and desire to congratulate our\ncontemporary on the conspicuous success which has attended Its efforts to\npresent in attractive form statistics\ndealing with the mining, lumbering and\nfruit-growing industries in British Columbia for the year which lias just\nclosed. In the appended extract the\nNews says something about Itself\nwhich will be very gratifying to the\nadmirers of the leading newspaper-lit\nthe Interior.\u2014Victoria Colonist\nThe \u25a0 annual review Issued by the\nNelson Dally News.this year contains\nmuch valuable information concerning\nthe fruits, mining, lumbering and other\nindustries of the Nelson district und\nthe tributary territory. The issue contains till pages of the regular newspaper\nIssue and luis.ma.ny illustrations.\u2014The\nflerald, Calgary.\nThe annual special number of the\nNelson Daily News has come to our\ndesk, and, as before, it contains a mass\nof information that Is desired by the\ngeneral public and particularly by\nstrangers who are sizing up possible\nlocations for future homes. All the\nIndustrial centres of Kootenay are wull\nand faithfully reviewed by the editor In\n. this excellent number, a task so proili-\ngious that none but the -members o(\nthe \"Fourth Estate\" can folly appreciate the involved labor. It is replete\nwith illustrations of the staple industries and objects of interest in this district, and Creston has a whole page to\nItself.\u2014The Review, Creston.\nThi3 year's special edition of the Nelson Daily Newa for general information, is the best annual production that\nhaB so far been published by that enterprising journal. Its 82 pages are replete with Interesting and valuable information of the mining, lumbering and\nfruit growing industries of the Kootenays. It should serve as one of the\nbest means of advertising the Bplended\nresources of this section of Hrltlsh\nColumbia. The,scope covered ln the\n1909 number is larger and more varied\nand Kaslo has been given prominent\nnotice by illustrations and articles. The\nNews Is deserving of great credit for\nIts enterprise as the publication of such\nan edition must have occasioned much\ntime ,'labor and expense. For parties\n-seeking information as to the varied\nresources of the Kootenays a copy of\ntho News' 1909 special number will be\njust the thing.\u2014The Kootenatan, Kaslo.\nWe reproduce hereunder an Interesting and Important summary \u2022 of the\nmineral production of British Coltim-\nM* for ths past year, taken from the\ncolumns ot our enterprising contempor.\nan*, the Nelson Dally News.\nBefore going further, however, we\ntake pleasure in congratulating\u2014not\nfor the first time\u2014the Nelson Daily-\nNews for its valuable yearly summary\nof the mineral production of this province. For many years past this summary lias been a regular feature at\nthe commencement of every January,\nand we state no more than Is fair to\nour Nelson contemporary when we say\nthat the painstaking cure ami accuracy\ndevoted to the Important subject dealt\nwith gives to this annua] summary to\nall intents the weight and value of an\nofficial production. Its estimates,\nthough necessarily only estimates in\nmany cases on account of the Inevitable\ndifficulties attaching to its prompt production at the commencement of the\nvery year succeeding that which It\nchronicles, are seldom far out from the\nofficial returns published by the government later In the year. The Nelson\nDally News has repeatedly placed the\npublic of British Columbia deeply in its\ndebt, and we trust will reap a rich reward lor Its enterprise.\nIn conclusion we may add that the\nspecial Issue of the Nelson Dally News\nlor the 3rd inst., from which we quote,\nis a splendidly gotten up and profusely\nIllustrated edition, and Is a most excellent advertisement of British Columbia to send to the East or to Great\nBritain.\u2014B.
