Wben a fruit grower\npacks his apples it is impossible for\nhim to know whether they are for\nexport or not. Consequently he uses\nwhatever box he prefers, and the result is conf us on.

He was a Hue\nfellow lu every tvny and when he\ncame ot n{_e fell Ueir to a fortune ut\nsome iftMi.iswj lie was besieged by\nfortune hunting wins.\nIt was mimethitiK of a relief, therefore, when Mrs. Stetson, an old friend\nof his mother, reminded him tbat be\nwas promised to her for a visit at her\nunpretentious bungalow on Lake Was-\nsspogie for tbe lust two weeks ln September. He had engaged for this visit\nln tbe spring tu please bis mother and\nbefore be bad made his round of bouse\nparties. At tbat time be looked forward to two weeks in Mrs. Stetson's\nbungalow as burying himself ln tbe\nwoods. Tbere was to be no otber\nguest and tbe family consisted only of\nMrs. Stetson, her son, Roy, aged sixteen, and her daughter. Alice, aged\ntwenty. Tomliusnn waa told that lt\nwould not be necessary to bring evening dress: tbat he would need flannel\nshirts and any old clothes he might\npossess. His days would be passed Id\na rowboat and bis evenings In tbe living room of tbe bungulow wltb the\nfamily sitting around a table reading\nby a kerosene lamp.\nAfter being bunted by spinsters\nTomlinson rather liked the Idea uf getting away by himself. True, tbere wat\nAlice Stetson, wbo might be lying In\nwait for bim, but It was not Improbable tbat he could get away occasionally alone for a pull over tbe waters\nof tbe lake.\nlt was near tbe 1st of October wben\nTomlinson was driven up to the rear\ndoor of tbe bttngalow-the bouse faced\nthe lake and was built on its verge-\nand tbe foliage uad already begun to\ntake on Us variegated uues. Mrs.\nStetson and Roy welcomed tbe guest.\nTomlinson noticed tbe abseuee of Miss\nAlice and was so well bred as to say\nthat be hoped sbe was nut from borne.\nBe was told that ahe waa In the bouse,\nbut would not appear before dinner.\nBer mother vaguely bluted tbat there\nwas a reason for ber keeping ber room\nfor tbe present, aud from the sympathetic tone In which the statement\nwas made Tomlinson Inferred that\nsome tad event bad occurred.\nAlice came out of ber room as dinner was announced. Sbe did not say\nanything about the lugubrious event.\nbnt ibe looked Intensely aad. Indeed,\nher eyes were red, an evidence that\nabe bad been weeping. The effort she\nBade to seem cheerful was touching\nTomlinson was tempted to Inquire\nwhat was the cause of ber melancholy,\nbut was too well bred to trespass on\nthe sacred feelings of a young girl.\nAlice retired to ber room early In the\nevening.\nTbe next morning ber depression\ncontinued,' though Tomlinson noticed\ntbat she ate heartily. Mrs. Stetson\nsuggested tbat tbe show Tomlinson\ntbe beauties ot Wattsapugle lake. Alice\ncut a look of appeal at ber mother,\net much ae to tay. \"Jt'a cruel that 1\nmust exert myself to entertain a stranger when my heart Is crushed.\" but\nthe mother insisted, telling ber daughter tbat tbe fresh air would raise ber\nspirits and that tbe should make an\neffort\ni. Wbat kind nf an effort she should\nmake the mother did not explain. Roy\ngot out a boat, and aa Alice stepped\nInto It dressed ln a very becoming\nblouse and a short skirt Tomlinson\nnoticed tbat ahe possessed a foot aud\nankle the curves of wblcb were very\ndelicately turned. She asked Ilny If be\nwas not gutng with tbem. and wben\nhe said he wat going Instead for\nducks the gave hiin n reproachful\nglance. Tomlluton, relieved at Rny'i\nrefusal, took tbe oars and pulled away\nfrom tbe front porch, which served at\na landing for the little bungalow burled under trees and shrubbery, dipping bis oars Into water lilies, tben\ngliding away Into deep water.\nTbere was an autumn crlspoesi In\nthe air. and Tutnllnson wished the lady\nwere In a better condition to enjoy It\nwltb him. He drew ber Into conversation and soon learned tbe cause of her\ndistress. When he admired a clump ot\ntrees nn the crest of a knoll abe said,\n\"Mr. Mieklejohn always admired that.\"\nWhen be pulled Into a llttle'cove with\na tiny beach overhung with wlldwnod\nand remarked what a charming spot it\nwas she replied sadly. \"Mr. Mieklejohn and I always used to pull In here\nwhen we came out boating.\"\n\"May.

This bee Mieklejohn\nbad been tbere, bad captured tbe prize\nand there was no sweetness left for\npoor Tomlinson,\n\"Pardon me.\" he said, with a suspicion of hauteur. \"1 did not know that\nI was trespassing on sacred ground.\"\n\"Ob, no. 1 assure you you quite mistake me.\"\n\"in what respect?\"\n\"It's as I said.

Wltb tbe girls\nTomlinson bad met be was surfeited.\nHere was a girl so preoccupied wltb\nanother tbat sbe couldn't even be companionable. Thia ts a specimen of tbe\nway she talked abuut Mieklejohn:\n\"Do you sing? Nol Mr. Mieklejohn\nhas such a lovely tenor voice. When\nbe sings be thrills me. He used to sing\nparts from 'Faust' and I almost\nwished I bad been Marguerite. Mr.\nMieklejohn It very versatile. He Is the\nbest whist player, tbe best billiard\nplayer, tbe best horseback rider, tbe\nbest swimmer\"\u00E2\u0080\u0094\n\"Did you tumble out of tbe boat\nwben he was bere tbat be might swim\nashore with you?\"\n\"How ridiculous!\" She pouted. Tomlinson asked ber to go on with the catalogue of Mleklejohn's accomplishments, but sbe turned away from him\naa from one wbo bad slapped tbe face\nof ber idol and, pulling on the port\nrudder rope, headed the boat for tbe\nbungalow.\nAfter dinner Alice sat at tbe table in\ntbe living room wltb ber mother, her\nbrother and Tomlinson\u00E2\u0080\u0094that Is to say,\nsbe was going to sit tbere, bnt the\nguest spoiled It all and drove her away\nby asking If Mr. Mieklejohn read poetry to ber by tbe dim light of the kerosene lamp. At ibis reference to tbe\ndear departed Mieklejohn Mrs. Stetson\ncast a frightened glance at ber daughter. Roy waa reading a book on tbe\ngame of football and was oblivious to\ntbe shock to his sister's sensibilities.\nAlice arose and. with ber eyes bent to\ntbe floor, left tbe room. Tomlinson\ncould bave bitten off his tongue, for a\nlong evening was before bim with oo\notber companions than an elderly lady\nand a boy, tbe room In wblcb tbey\nwere being lighted by a dim lamp.\nMrs. Stetson retired at 9 and Roy half\nan hour later. Tomlinson vowed tbat\nit tbe period of this seclusion ever ex-\npired-lt teemed to him that It never\nwould-be would not get into aucb a\ntrap again. Resides, be waa much\npiqued after having been tuught by\nfiner girl* to be completely Ignored,\nconsidered a personage nf no Importance whatever compared with tbe Immaculate Mieklejohn. A desire came\nto bim to supplant Mr. Mleklejubn and\nwhen be bad dune su leave Lake Was-\naapogle wltb bis nose ln the air.\nTbe next morning Mrs. Stetson, evidently still concerned about ber daughter's sorrow, suggested another boat\nride. Alice didn't seem to care what\nshe did ao long as Mr. Mleklejobu was\nabsent Sbe yielded possibly to her\nmother's with. The boat wat taken\nout and the guest ot the bouse, with\nthe littlest girt again left the bungalow.\n'tomlinson bore the references to\nMieklejohn. gritting bit teeth, but\nmaking no reply. His object wat\nrather to draw Alice's attention away\nfrom thli remarkable man to otber\nsubjects from which * be might the\nmore easily direct it to himself. He\nexerted whatever lady killing faculties\nhe possessed for an hour, at the end of\nwblcb time bit companion teemed\nreally to bave plucked up tome Interest in ber surroundings. Tben for an\nhour the failed to mention tbe lost one.\nTomlinson wat encouraged.\nTwo weeks passed, eacb day being a\ngradual drawing away of Alice Station from a man who wat absent to a\nman wbo wit present. All tbe dell-\nclout little nookt wblcb bordered on\nthe lake were visited again and again,\nand at laat Tomllnaou chuckled to\nhimself:\n\"Now bring on your Mieklejohn.\"\nOne bright morning tbey were drifting Idly through some rushes. There's\nnothing like some rushes, some smooth\nwater, a little brush and a few overhanging trees, wltb a man and a girl\nlo a boat to make a picture of young\nlove. Tomlinson was making an effort\nto complete tbe thntterlug of tbe ta-\ncred image\u00E2\u0080\u0094Mieklejohn. He overshot\ntbe mark and made use of the word\n\"love.\" Had Mtas Stetson been sitting\nat ibe otber end of the boat from him.\npossibly what happened might not\nhave hapened. at least nut then.

Th-\npolice magistrate, who evidently hetl\nan easy conscience, pleaded not auil-\nty. Three witnesses, Messrs. J. 1)\nKnox, A. Clark and C. B.

Messrs. Knox and Hewett jo\ncularly asked \"What about witness\nfees,\" but tbe police magistrate retorted that he certainly was not going\nto pay them.

The City of London conferred its freedom upon him\neleven years ago, and successive Governments have pressed a K.C.M.G.\nupon him. But Mr. Heaton has four\ntimes declined the honor.

He was a Scot of the Scot,\nfilled alike with the pride of race and\nthe gift o' the gab, and his oratory\nwas in equally great demand at Liberal campaign meetings and banquet*\nof the St. Andrew's Society and the\nSons of Scotland.\nOne of the best talcs concerning\nhim had its locale at a political meet,\ning in his native province. The fu\nture Lieutenant-Governor was striking\nthe sentimental chord, and was dibit\ning on his boyhood days to an audience largely composed ot his fellow-\nScots.\n\"Gentlemen,\" he said, \"I do not\nknow whether you will believe me or\nnot, but it ia nevertheless a fact that\nat school I was only punished once\nby the teacher\u00E2\u0080\u0094and that waa for tell\ning the truth.\"\n\"Wesly, Tuncan,\" came the quick\nretort in the high-pitched tones ol an\naged and shrewd Heelan' mon, \"it\ncured ye a' richt.\"\nAnother anecdote which showed th.'\nInnate kindliness and generosity ol\nMr. Fraser concealed under a bluff\nexterior was contributed several year-\nago by a Toronto newspaperman to\nthe annual program issued by the Toronto Press Club. Under the caption.\n\"A Nova Scotia Angel in Disguise.'\nthe story runs:\nIn the days before telephones were\nin use in the United States to the ex\ntent that they are now, a Canadian\nnewspaperman was stranded in tlie\ngood old, city of Boston. After several\ndays of '.he strenuous life without the\nwherewithal to support his strenuos\nity, he managed to get same space\nwork on the old Journal. He \"mad.\ngood\" in a fashion, and was congrnt\nulating himself that the days of pari.\nbenches for sleeping places and a\ntightening of his waist band for tneni.\nwere over. But the first night, or\nrather early in the morning, the city\neditor called him across to his desk\nand said:\n\"Take a herdic and go out to Brook\nline, call on Mr. Blank at such and\nJbch an addresa, and ask him whethe-\nit ia true that his wife haa left his\nhouse and entered action lor divorce\nDon't come back without the stor.\nand bring the photos of the principals\nwith you.\"\nThe Canadian, who had not lost all\nsense of decency, and who still retained hia belief that a newspaperman\nmight be a gentleman and that beini\na reporter was not synonymous with\nbeing a cad, felt his breath come in\njasps at the very idea. He was about\nto protest, when the city editor wa.-\ncallcd to the chief's sanctum, and the\nchance woe lost. He bad to go at the\nassignment, or quit.\nIt was a difficult choice. A man\nwith an empty pocket haa sometime*\nto pocket his pride in lieu of some\nthing else wherewith to Ull it, an.I\nhunger won the day. Accordingly the\nCanadian started out. He went ova'\nto tho Tremont House in acarch of 'i\nherdic, and was feeling just about at\nmiserable as any self-respecting nun\ncould, when he was hailed by a checrv\nvoice of Gaelic accent: \"Hullo, whet\nare you doing here?\" The Good Sa\nmaritan (for such he proved to bei\nwaa a burly Nova Scotian politician,\nwell known all over the Dominion for |\nthe strength of his voice, ond no*\noccupying the highest place in the gift\nof the crown in hiB native province.\nTho reporter told his story\u00E2\u0080\u0094how he\nhnd outrun the constable, how he Ind\nbeen stranded, and finally the dis\nagreeable assignment which he hail\nbeen given.\n\"Come here, youngster,\" aaid the\nNova Scotian, and he took Ihe Ind by\nthc arm. \"You am not going to Brook\nlino to-ni?ht or any other night on\nsuch a mission Vou are going to sleep\nright in this hotel, and you arc goiue\nto have a good supper. Leave it to\nme to attend to that city editor.\"\nAnd thoy went in together.

C.\nHeroes and Heroes\nWe never hear anything about a\nCarnegie hero medal in connection\nwith the editor of a wayside weekly\nwhen the thermometer is hopstep-\nping ahout the 40-below-zero mark.\nThe country editor who has tbe\ncourage to get out his paper when\nthe front door of the office faces the\nnorth pole and the wind whistles a\ndoleful dirge through the cracks, is\na hero whose valor is still unsung.\nThe fellow who pulls a mean, selfish'\ntwo by-four critter out of six feet of\nocean foam when the tide comes in\nand then applies to Andrew for a\nmedal ougbt to be forced to go to the\ncold, icy sanctum of the humble\neditor and tbere learn tbe rudiments\nof rough-necked, everyday heroism.\nTbere is something to this thing of\npicking up a lot odds and ends from\n1 a case of body type and make a\nstring of news out of wben tbe\nthumb and index linger feel and act\nlike two who had been friends but\nwere now seeking opposite roads.\nThere is no get-together spirit tbere,\nbrother, and you know it. Peary\nreally thought he did something\nwhen he accidentally ran Across the\nnorth pole; but the printer who bas\nset up a marriage notice aud a sale\nbill to the tune of tlie whistling\nnorth wind knows better than tbat.\nAn editor thawing out a galley of\ntype over a suckling fire and playing\nhis fingers over tbe dope to see bow\nnear it is coming apart has oppor-\ntnuity of discovering something\nmore crisp than tbe imaginary pole\nof tbe far north. Yet he never\nmisses an issue, The water may be\nfrozen where hangs the proverbial\noffice towel; tbe sponge may be in\nshape to be used for a rock crusher;\nthe floor may be converted into a\nskating rink; the old stove may be\nas cold as a Boston girl, and the\nshop as uninviting as a summer\ncottage when the harvest days ure\nover. And yet the country editor\nmoves and bas his being in the\nmidst of this frozen hell without\nmissing an issue. What do you\nknow about that, anyway? Don't\nyou feel as if old Andy ought to\npick out his heroes with a bit of\nbetter judgment? Of course. The\neditor speaks from experience, al\nthough working in steam heat these\ndays.

It may\noccur aa a sinple tiny spot, appearing and\ndisappearing with each change in general\nhealth or present only at certain seasons;\nat the other extreme, the whole body may\nbe Involved In a torturing eruption. The\nlatter condition may gradually arise through\nthe neglect or Improper treatment of lesser\ntroubles or an apparently healthy skin may.\nIn a single day, become a mass of eczema.\nBut whatever the form of the affection, the\ndistressing itching, burning, scaling and\ncrusting, the serious disfigurement and the\nconstant dread that the eczema will become\nchronic, make a speedy cure tho aim of every\nsufferer. Unfortunately, such a cure is not\nalways readily obtained. The most skilled\nphysician Is often at a loss and even hospitals\nare forced to discharge the patient as Incurable, Then a wide variety ot remedies are\nresorted to, many perfectly harmless and\nequally Ineffective, others so offensive to\nevery sense that, were lt not for the relief\nthey are supposed to afford, no person of\nrefinement would tolerate them for an Instant.\nTo such sufferers, discouraged by repeated\nfailures of even these heroic methods, the\n.Instant relief afforded by the first bath with\nCuticura Soap and gentle application of\nCuticura Ointment is almost incredible. They\nstop the itching and burning at once, make\ndeep possible and, tn most cases, point to\na speedy cure. So pure and sweet are Cuticura\nSoap and Ointment and so free from every\nsubstance of a disagreeable or harmful nature\nthat they can be used without hesitation on\nthe youngest infant or tenderest skin. Besides, they are most economical, a single set\nbeing often sufficient for tbe treatment of\neven the severest cases. ^\nin proof of the efficacy of the Cuticura\nRemedies it will be enough to quote here a\nsingle letter, from Mrs. Edward Nennlng,\n11 Lansing Block, Watertown, N.Y.: \"Four\nyears ago I suffered with a terrible eczema,\nbeing a mass of sores from head to feet and\nfor six months confined to my bed. Curing\nthat time I suffered continual torture from\nitching and burning. After being given up\nby my doctor, I waa advised to try Cuticura.\nAfter the first bath with Cuticura Soap and\napplication ot Cuticura Ointment I enjoyed\nthe first good sleep during my entire illness.\nX also used Cuticura Resolvent and the treatment wu continued for three weeks. At the\nend of that time I was entirely cured and\nhave felt no Ul effects since. I would advise\nany person suffering from any form of skin\ntrouble to try the Cuticura Remedies, as I\nknow what they did for me.\"\nCuticura Soap, Ointment, Resolvent and\nFills are sold by druggists everywhere.

Aylward givef\na picture of the varied life of the city.\nHe says: \"It wa3 late in the afternoon\nwhen we reached the mouth of tho\nriver, the hour when everybody that\nis anybody is out driving on the Es- ,\nplanade, and every one who is not il\nthere, to see. Along the broad, tree-\nshaded river the fascinating show\ntrots by, and one cannot but admire\nthe genius.jjf the people who made it\npossible in this little peninsula for\nwhich John Bull gave the whole island of Java to the Dutch, and where\nbut a generation or two ago Lord\nCavenagh found but a few pirate huts.\n\"Across the road, with your back to\nthe sea, you can easily imagine yourself at a large week-end party in England. On a broad smooth lawn which\nyears of exncri:m>nt coaxed to grow\nin alien soil, scant-clad figures work\nhard at socker, cricket and rounders.\nWomen in fluffy white and Paris hats\nsit languidly in wicker chairs, attended by native servants who keep guard\nover blond babies, while their mistresses watch the game. Through a\nrich, dark curtain of heavy foliage a\npocket edition of an English cathedral peers and raises its delicate spire\nagainst a flaming sky.\n\"Under the tree-shaded road, between the lawn and water, a parade ot\nnations goes on\u00E2\u0080\u0094brown men, black\nmen, yellow men and white; Hindoo,\nMalay, Japanese, and Kling, awheel or\nafoot, with here and there in tho\nmotley, gaudily costumed throng tho\nsnowy garb of the helmeted master\nmind. Next to him in importance aro\nthe Chinese men of wealth, the real\nmerchant princes of Singapore, who\ngive a fairly good idea of how a Chinese can rise if given a chance. On\nthe seat of the most fashionable dogcart one goes by, behind a high-stepping, docked sorrel driven by a Bengali lad in livery, with a duplicate\nfootman gravely enjoys his daily drive\nand ciiat with his son just homo from\nOxford.\n\"Following him, a sober equipage\ncontains an English mother with three\nmarriageable daughters; then a high-\ncaste Hindoo in his low carriage reclines on rich cushions, his crinkly\nwhite frock and silver buttons setting\nofl magnificently his dark, bearded\nface, crowned with fathoms and fathoms of soft, white-stuff in a carefully\nlaid turban; a skittish horse, with an\nofficer in the Lincoln-green uniform\nof the Sherwood Foresters at the ribbons, his bull pup beside him and a\nlittle baboon in barefooted livery sitting astern; a shabby gharry and a\nPortuguese priest; a rickshaw with a\nChinese woman in flowing blue, surrounded by her little brood; a bv\nrouche full of French girls \u00E2\u0080\u0094 all pass\nthrough a chattering throng of Tamil-\nmen in skirts, with little velvet, embroidered skullcaps on their heads;\nturbaned Klings in loincloths; savage-\nlooking Javanese, a Manchu lady in\nyellow silk limps pitifully on hobbled\nfeet after the musical slink ol her\nlord and master's wooden clogs; Ben-\ngaleae, Mohammedan, and Parsees.\"\nMADE IN CANADA\nRoyal\nYEAST\nCAKES\nMOST PERFF-CT MADE C\nHu been Canada's favorite'\nYeast over a quarter of a\ncentury; Enough for S cts\nto produce SO large loaves\nof fine, wholesome, nourishing, home-made bread.\nDo not experiment\u00E2\u0080\u0094there\nis nothing \"just as good.\"\nI.

This\nis, of course, quite feasible, but tho\ngrain ot the glass would be magnified\ntogether with the image and would\nvitiate the result. Prof. Gordon uses\na translucent screen oi the finest possible texture, and he causes it to be\nkept in continual motion while the\nobject is being viewed or photographed. By this means the grain oi the\nscreen is eliminated and the greatly\nmagnified image of the object alone\nseen.
