May 5, 1911.\n$1.00 Per Year in Advance.\nExperiments to determine the\namount ot water which will give the\nbest result* in tree growth, quality\nand yield of fruit and to ascertain the\ninfluence pf alfalfa, clover aud\nvetches as cover crops, are being made\nat Zillah and Giandview, Wash., under the direction of Stephen 0. Jayne,\nof Spokane, manager of .the department of irrigation investigations of the\nUnited States department. The purpose of the tests is to gain knowledge\nof what will aid the irrigation farmer\nin the way of greater efficiency and\nresults by economy of effort. \"The\ngrowth of fruit trees leads to the\ngradual exhaustion of the soil and the\ndepletion of plant food.\" says Mr.\nJayne. \"It is detrimental to the\nphysical, as well as the chemical, constituents of the soil. The prohlem is\nhow to counteract this. Leguminous\ncrops, such as alfalfa, clovers and\nvetches, absorb nitrogenous substance\nfrom the air, fix it in tbe soil and\nthereby feed ttie trees and also add\nthe needed humus to the soil. They\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2re better agents for covering than\ngarden truck, which exhausts the soil\nwithout much compensation. In irrigation it often happens too much\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2rater is used, leading to expensive\ndisappointment. It hu been conclusively proved that two feet of water\ngives almost as much yield as four\nfort, I am carrying out an interesting experiment ot growing alfalfa in\ngalvanized iron tanks, two feet in\ndiameter and four feet deep, holding a\nhalf ton of soil. Alfalfa is sown and\nwater supplied by sub irrigating pipes\nto reduce the loss by evaporation to a\nminimum. The water applied during\nthe season i\u00C2\u00AB carefully,weighed, and\nthus tha amount required to produce\na given amount of alfalfa will be determined. Allowance must be made\nfor the nature of different soils.\"\nvice of tbe church on tbe 14th inst.\nevery one in tbe congregation will\nhave the opportunity of joining them\nin the observance of \"Mothers'\nDay.\" The pastor will preach a\nsermon suited to the occasion, and\nspecial music will be rendered.\nEvery one is cordially invited to be\npresent.

As a consequence\nthe court issued a warrant for Jasofa\nand a heartless bailiff was despatched\nto arrest her.\nAs the twins are grown together,\nthe officer took both to prison,thereby\noverstepping his authority. Rosa immediately applied tor an injunction,\nand as she could not be liberated with\nout Jasofa, Jasofa too was released.\nNow it turns out that the release of\nJasofa constitutes contempt of court,\njust as the imprisonment of Rosa was\nillegal under the law.\nThe bailiff who arrested Rosa has\nbeen severely reprimanded, and the\njudge who relea sed Jasofa has been\ncalled to account by the minister of\njustice.\nCUSTOMS RECEIPTS\nR.

P. R. light of way.\nThe Planting'of Trees\na\nOnce, when the world was younger\nand life was less complex, men and\ntrees were better acquainted than\nthey have heen in later years. Tbe\ntongues of trees were not a mere figure of speech; the dryads and otber\nwood nymphs peopled every leafy\ncovert But tbese times have long\nsince passed away. They were followed by ages in which tbe tree was\nsimply a useful thing for ships and\nhouses and bridges.\nIu our generation there is a re\nnewed appreciation ol the iree and\na closer compnnship with it. We\nfind that it teaches lessons; we see in\nit a symbol; we value it for many\nthings more peunanent than the\nlumber which soon decays. So it\nhas come about that trees are\nplanted and cared for\u00E2\u0080\u0094millions and\nmillions of them every year\u00E2\u0080\u0094and\nthe love of tbe tree is encouraged in\nevery youthful heart.\nArbor day, whicn was established\nin Nebraska less tban forty years\nago. is now observed in every state\nand in many foreign lands. In\nTexas it falls late in February, and\nin some of tbe northern states from\nMaine to Montana, it is not celebrated until May is here. Japan has\ncelebrated Arbor day upon November 3 for thirty years.\nA Chicago man bas recently offered to pay for setting out trees\nalong miles of highway in his native\ntown in New England. Absent sons\noften remember tbeir home towns\nwith substantial gifts\u00E2\u0080\u0094libraries,\nchurches, town halls, monuments,\nschool buildings, memorial bridges\nand shade Irtes along the highways\nare worthy to be included in the list.\nBut great wealth is not needed by\nthose who desire to enriah a community and bless posterity by planting trees.\nAll other holidays look to thc\npast; Arbor duy looks forward to the\nyears to come. It is but a means to\nsn end. The care and protection of\nthe trees are no less Important than\nthc planting. He who plants a tree\nplants many good thingc for the future, but they may all lie lost if the\nspirit of Arbor day is not kept alive\nthrougo the whole year.\u00E2\u0080\u0094Youth's\nCompanion.\nThe Spinners\nMrs. Gowland's sewing class will\nhold their first sale of useful and\nfancy articles, on Mr. Gowland's\nlawn, on Saturday, May 6th. from I\nto 7 o'clock.

C.\nTHE\nFOUR FINGERS\nBy FRED M. WHITE,\nAuthor ol\nTha Crlmaon Blind: The Cardinal\nMoth: Tha Welsht of the Orown;\nTha Oorner House; The Slaves ef\nSilence; Oraven Fortune; Tha\nFatal Dose; Netta.\n(Continued.)\nThere was something so utterly sad\nand hopeless in this that Gurdon averted his eyes from the girl's face. He\nglanced in the direction of the door;\nthen it required all his self control lu\nrepress a cry, for in the comparative\ngloom of thc passage beyond he could\njust make out the figure of Vera, who\nstood there with her linger on her lip\nas if imposing silence. He could see\nthat in her hand she held something\nthat looked like a chisel. A moment\nlater she flitted away once more, leav\ning Gurdon to puzzle his brain as'to\nwhat it ull meant.\n\"I am sorry for all this,\" the cripple said. \"You have entirely by accident come face to face with a phase\nin my life which is sacred and inviolate. Really, if I had no other reason for reducing you to silence, this\nwould be a sufficiently powerful inducement. My dear Beth, I really\nmust ask you \u00E2\u0080\u0094\u00E2\u0080\u0094\"\nWhatever the cripple might have\nintended to say, the speech was never\nfinished; for, at that moment, the\nelectric lights vanished suddenly,\nfdunging the whole house into ubso-\nute \"darkness. A moment later, footsteps came hurrying' along ^he hall,\nand a voice waa heard to say that thu\nfuse from the meter had gone, and it\nwould be impossible to turn on the\nlight again until the officials , had\nheen ciilled in to repair the damage.\nAt the sume moment Gurdon rose to\nhis feet and crept quietly in the direction of the door. Here, at any\nrate, was a chance of escape, for that\nhis life was in dire peril Gurdon had\nfelt for some little time. He bad\nhardly reached the doorway when he\nfelt a slim hand touch his and he\nwas guided from the room into the\npassage beyond. He could give a\npretty fair idea ns to the owner of\nthe slim fingers that trembled in his\nown, but he made no remark; he allowed himself to be led on till his\nfeet stumbled against some stairs.\n\"This way,\" a voice whispered.\n\"Pay nothing, make no protest. You\nwill be quit! safe from further harm.\"\nGurdon did exactly us he was told.\nHe found himself presently nt the top\nof a staircase, nnd a little later i.i a\nroom, the door of which was closed\nvery quietly by his guide.\n\"I think I can guess whom f hnve\nto thank for this,\" Gurdon murmured. \"But why did you not take me\nto the front door, or the hack entrance leading to the garden? It, was\nlucky for me that the lights failed\nat the critical moment\u00E2\u0080\u0094a piece of\nnominal good fortune, such as usually\nonly happens in a story. But I should\nfeel a great deal safer if I were on\nthe other side of the front door.\"\n\"Thnt is quite impossible,\" Vera\nsaid for she it wus who hnd come to\nGurdon's rescue. \"Both doora nre\nlocked, nnd all the rooms on the\nground floor nre furnished with shutters. As to the lights going out, I\nam responsible for it. 1 learnt all\nabout the electric light when I lived\nin a mining camp in Mexico. I had\nonly to remove one of the lamps nnd\napply my chisel to the two poles and\nthereby put out every fuse 1.1 the\nhouse. That is why the light failed,\nas it occurred to me that ih the confusion that followed the darkness, I\nshould be ill a position to save you.\nBut you little realize how near vou\nhnve heen to death to-night. And,\nwhy, oh why, did you follow me in\nthis way? It was very wrong of you.\"\n\"It was Venner's idea,\" Gurdun\nsaid. \"He had a Btrunge tear that\nyou were going into some danger.\nHe asked me to fo'low you and I did\nso. As to the manner of my getting\nhere \"\n\"I know 1*111 about that,\" Vera\nsaid hurriedly. \"I hnve been listen\ning to your conversation. I dare sny\nyou are curious to know something\nmore about this strange household,\nhut lor the present, you will he fur\nbetter employed in getting nway from\nit. I shall tint he ensy in my mind\ntill you are once more in the street.\nCHAPTER VIII.\nMissing.\nGurdon waited to henr whnt I.i.\ncompanion was going to say now.\nHe had made up Irs mind to pine\"\nhimself implicitly in her hands, and\nM her decide for the best, Evidently\nhe had found himself in a kind ot\nlunatic asylum, where one inhabitant\nnt least had developed a dangerous\nlorm of homicidal mania, and he had\na pretty sure conclusion that Vera\nhad saved his life. It was no im,\nnow to ask questions, that wouln\ncome Inter on.\n\"I am sure I am nwfullv grateful\nto you,\" Gurdon snid. \"Who nre\nthese peonle, und why do thev behave in this insene fashion? This is\nnot exactly the kind of mennge \"0\nexpects to find in one of the best an-\npointed mansions in the west end.\"\n\"I enn fell you nothing about it,\"\nvera snid. There wns n ninrk*\"l cold-\nll \"ss in her voice that told Gordon he\nwas uoing too fur. \"I can tell you\nnothing. One thing yon may rest\" assured of\u00E2\u0080\u0094I am in no kind of dnnger\nnor am I likely to be. My concern\nchiefly at the present moment is witl.\nyou. I want you to get back as soon\nas you can to the Great Empire Hotel, and. ease Gerald's mind as to\nmyself.\"\n\"i hardly like to go without you,\"\nGurdon murmured.\n\"But you must.\" Vera protestea\n\"I am ns absolutely safe here as if )\ni were in my own room. Now, conic\n! this way. I dare not strike a light.\n11 cun only take you by the hand and\nj lend you to the top of the house.\nEvery inch of the place is perfectly\nfamiliar to me and you are not like-\nI ly to come to the lenst harm. Please\nj don't waste any more time.\"\nGurdon yielded against his better\njudgment. A moment or two later he\nfound himself climbing through a\nskylight on to the flat leads at the\ntop of the house. By the light of the\ntown he could now set what he was\ndoing, and pretty well where he wns.\nFrom the leads h\u00C2\u00BB could look down\ninto the gnrden, though, ns yet, he\ncould not discern any avenue of\nescape.\n\"The thing is quite easy.\" Vera\nexplnined. \"The late occupant of\nthe house had a nervous dread of\nfire, and from every floor he had a\nseries of rope ladders nrrnnged. See.\nthere is one fixed to the chimney. I\nhave onlv to throw it over, nnd you\ncan reach the eart'en without delay;\nthen I will pull the. ladder up neain\nnnd no one will he the wiser. Now,\nnlease leii\"e me without any further\ndelay in the absolute assurance thnt\nI shell be bnck again within an\nhour.\"\nA few minutes later Gurdon was1 in\nthe street again, making his wnv to\nthe hotel where Venner was awaiting\nhim.\nIt was a strange story that he hnd\nto tell, a very thrilling nnd interest,\ning adventure, but ce which, after\nall, still further complicnted the mys-\ntorv and rendered it almost unintelligible.\n\"Arid you mean to sav yon hnve\nactually been face to face with oui\ncripple fri*>nd?\" Venner s-id. \"Y*ni\nmenn to rjiv that he wonld ectuallv\nhave murdered you if Ver** hnd not\nInterfered in that providential manner? I supoose I must, n-eept your\nassurance that sh\u00C2\u00BB is Absolutely 'safe\nthough I ce.n't help feeling she has\nexaggerated her own position. I nm\nterribly anxious about. h\"r. I hnve\npn idea which 1 should like to cerry\nout. I feel tolenblv sure that this\npicturesoue crinple of ours could tell\nos everything that'we want to know.\nBesides unl\"ss I r,o something I shfll.\ngo mud. Whnt do vou snv to pnying\nthe interesting eripn'e a visit to-mo-\nrow night, and forcing him to tel.\nus everything?\"\nGordon shook his hend: he wns not\nparticularly impressed with the suggestion thet Venner had made.\n\"Of coui-s*! we could get into the\nhouse easily enough,\" he said. \"Now\nthnt 1 know the secret of the cellar,\nthere will b\u00C2\u00AB no difficulty about that.\nStill, don't you think it seems rether\nridiculous to try this sort of thing\nwhen yonr wife is in a position to\ntell vou the whole thing?\"\n\"But fhe wonld decline to do nny-\nthing of the kin*'.\" Venner protested. \"She hns told me that her lips\nere sealed: she haR even no explanation to offer for the way in which\nshe left me within hn!f un hour of\nour becoming man nnd wife. I should\nalmost be justified in forcing her to\nspeak, hut, you sse, I cannot do thut.\nTherefore I must treat her in a way\nas if she were one of our enemies. I\nhave a very strong fancy for pnying\nour cripple friend a visit, nnd, if th*>\nworst came to the worst, we could\nconvince hiin that we are emphatically not on the side of Mark Fenwick. At uny rate, I mean to have\na try, and ,f you don't like to come\nin \"\n\"Oh, I'll come in fast enough,\"\nGurdon suid. -\"You had better meet\nme to-morrow night nt my rooms, Raj\nabout eleven; then we will see what\nwe can do with a view to the solution of the mystery.\"\nAt the appointed time, Venner duly\nput in an appearance. He was clothed in a dark suit nnd cap, Gordon\ndonning a similar costume. Under\nhis arm Venner had a small brown\npaper parcel.\n\"What have you got there?\" Gurdon asked.\n\"A pnir of tennis shoes.\" wns the\nresponse. \"And if you take my advice, you would hnve u puir too. My\niden is to tnke off one's hoots directly one gets into the seclusion ot the\ngarden and chnnge into these shoes.\nNow. come along, let's get it over.\"\nIt wns nn easy matter to reach the\ngurileii without being observed, nnd\nin a very short time the two friends\nwere standing close to the windows\nof the large room nl the bnck of the\nhouse. There wns not so much ns a\nglimmer of light lo be seen anywhere\nwithin. Very cautiously they felt\ntheir way along until they came at\nlength to the grating through whic'i.\nGurdon bud mnde so dramatic nn\nentrance the night hefor\". He too1.-\nfrom his pocki>t a box of vestas and\nventured to strike one. He held it\ndown close to the ground, shndinc I\nthe tiny point of flame with his hand I\n\"Here is a bit of luck to begin j\nwith,\" he chuckled. \"They haven't\nfastened this grating up ngain. f\nsuppose my escape last night mils'\nhnve upset them. At nny rat-*, her*?. I\nis n we.-.' into the house without run-1\noing the risk of beina nrr\"\u00C2\u00BBted fir j\nburglary, nnd if the police did catch\nus we should find i: nn exceedingly j\nawkward matter to frame an excuse !\nto satisfy a magistrate.\" I\n\"Thnt seemR nil right,\" Venner snid\n\"When we get into the cellar, it's nny\nodds thnt we find the door of the\nstairs lock\"d. I don't supnose th-'\ngrating has been forgotten. You see,\nit is not such an easy matter to get\nthe British workman to do a job on\nthe spur of the moment.\"\n\"Well, come along; we shall soon\nascertuin that,\" Gurdon said. \"Oncrf\ndown these steps, we shall be able to\nuse our matches.'\nlihey crept cautiously down the\nstairs into the damp and mouldy cellar; thence up the steps on the other\nside, where Gurdon * lighted one of\nhis matches. The door was closed,\nbut it yielded quite easily to the\ntouch, and at length the two men\nwere in the part of the house which\nwus given over to the use of the serr\nvant:. So far as they could judge\nthe place was absolutely deserted.\nDoubtless the domestic staff had retired to bed. All the same it seemed\nstrange to find no signs of life in the\nkitchen. The stove was cold, and\nthough the grate was full of cinders,\nit was quite apparent thnt no fire\nhad been lighted there for the pnst\nlour and twenty hours. Again, there\nwas no furniture in the kitchen besides a large table and n couple of\nchjiirs.

The subject at last became so pressing that the Govern-\nment appointed commissioners to\ninvestigate the cause of the numerous forgeries, and whether a mode\ncould be devised whereby the forging of bank notes might be prevented.\nPrevious to this investigation tha\ndirectors of the bank had been endeavoring to remedy 'he evil, many\nplans having been submitted to\nthem, all of which they were obliged\nto reject.\nThe bnnk placed before the commissioners 180 different projects thnt\nhad been recommended for adoption\ns.nd seventy varieties of paper made\nhy way of experiment. The result of\nall this labor was the bank note of\nto-day.\nThe color of the paper is peculiar,\nand cannot be imitated exactly by\njounterfeiters, except at great expense. The combined thinness and\nstrength of the paper are also unique.\nIt is mnde in sheets large enough for\ntwo notes. Ench note before it is\nsized weighs about eighteen grains,\nand then if doubled, it is strong\nenough to suspend a weight of thirty-\nsix pounds.\nThe texture of the paper is also\npeculiar, lt haa a crisp feel, in-\nvariably the same, and such that\nbank clerks of experience can readily\ndetect forgeries by this test nlone.\nThen the wire mark i pressed in the\nmaking by n frame, costly to make\nand difficult to use, is pnctically\ninimitable.\nEmh note has thin, rough edges,\nuncut, not to be produced by any\nmode of rutting paper that is pot\ndevised expressly for the purpose.\nThe puper for printing is damped\nwith water in the exhausted receiver\nof nn nir pump. The ink used in ths\nMate printing is made of Frankfort\nfilnrk, which is composed of the charcoals oi the tendrils and husks of\nthc (li rmiin grape ground with lin-\nseed oil.

Having noticed\nthe unusual weight of some hair now.\nder, he Inquired what it was made if\nand found that it was a finely powdered clay from Aue. He forthwith procured some of the clay, mnd\u00C2\u00BB vessels\nof it and, to his infinite delight, learned that he had at last found the very\nmaterial he wanted. In a word, he\nhad made the discovery of pore-lain.\nBeginning of the Year.\nJanuary 1 was not made N\u00C2\u00BBw Year's\nday in England until 1761. Tht\nproper bepinning of the year is in\nMarch, which is the beginning of\nspring, when all nature is new. Before January 1 waa adopted by thc\nEnglish Parliament as the legal lie-\nginning of the year March 25 was ths\ndate. In the Roman calendar also\nMarch was the firat month.\nSTOWAWAYS.\nThe Ocean Art ol Ticketless Travel\nExtensively Practiced.\nStowaways being usually considered rather interesting personages to\nread about, a newspaperman waited\nI upon a certain big steamship com-\n| pany to learn something about the\n; methods of the passengers who don't\npay.\nAlthough he was not actually referred downstairs to \"our Stowaways'\nDepartment,\" the visitor was at once\ntaken up in a lift to a gentleman who\nmight almost claim to have made a\nlifelong study of stowaways.\n\"Stowaways things of the past I\" he\nejaculated, in response to the caller's\nsuggestion. \"I should rather describe\nthem as being decidedly of the present. Personally, I believe stowing-\naway has become more popular of\nrecent years. The reason? The\nSouth African war, the rush to the\nCape. No work there; so on to Australasia, anywhere, then home again.\nEven to-day, after boats leave Cape\nTown, there is always a stowaway-\nhunt\u00E2\u0080\u0094a kind of 'I spy' for the crew.\n\"Stowaways are of two kinds. There\nare those who smuggle themselves on\nboard anyhow, and hide amongst the\ncargo in the more usual, unsophisticated way. The others saunter aboard\nwith the passengers' friends, and,\nignoring 'All ashore!' pose comfortably as passengers themselves, trusting to luck and cool cheek to dodge\nthe ticket-taker.\n\"Look at one of the Castle boats 1\nThirteen days at sea, twenty-four\nhours from Southampton, a well-\ngroomed individual inquired of the\nchief officer if he could be provided\nwith a railway ticket to London, instead of continuing the voyage to its\nend. It was finely done, but bluff,\nnothing else. The man had no right\non board at all, and was given into\ncustody.\n\"One stowaway went to New York\nin a packing-case. He was penned\nup for sixteen days, lying upon hay,\nwith two dozen soda-water bottles ol\nsweetened coffee and a packet of letters from his young lady with him.\nThe man nearly lost his reason.\n\"The West Coast of Africa is a terror for colored stowaways, constant\nwatch having to be kept on the\nsteamers. Recently a mail boat arrived at Plymouth with twelve Kroo-\nboy stowaways on board, one of them\nbringing with him his tall silk hat!\n\"At some ports now dogs are kept,\nand trained to run loose among the\ncargo ere the vessel sails and nose out\nstowaways. The sailors call them\n'bilge hounds.' One dog could not he\ninduced to quit, so the ship sailed\nwith him, and next day he dragged\nto light a man's wooden leg. There\nwas a one-legged stowaway in hiding.\n\"Aboard liners, a stowaway is signed on as an assistant steerage steward. Place under the orders of the\nchief steward, it depends a great deal\non his own demeanor and shrewdness\nwhether he is handed over to the\npolice or given a proper discharge at\nthe finish of the trip.\n\"I have known stowaways to depart\nin the best of spirits and bodily condition, and with two or three sovereigns jingling in their pockets.\"\nCompensation Curiosities.\nThe British public has some queer\nideas about the Workmen's Compensation Act.\nAll sorts of funny claims are made\nunder its provisions, and an Answers'\nman, who has made inquiries of some\nof the leading companies who insure\nunder the Act, has discovered some\ndroll claims.

It will also prevent it\nwhen taken in time. The reason why\nit is so successful is becnuse it is absorbed or transfused into the circulation almost immediately without\ntaxing the digestive organs as other\nfoods do, and as the strippings or\nlast quart of the milking from a cow\nthat gives very rich milk is nearly all\ncream the patient will take on fat so\nmuch faster than can be accomplished by nny otlier method that they\nsoon gain enough strength nnd vitality to overcome the germs causing\nconsumption.\nTo get best results one should begin\nwitli u glass of strappings, and increase gradually; but if there is nny\ndisgust created for it any time the\nquantity should be dropped at once to\none hulf nnd then increase gradually\nagain. In two or three weeks they can\nusually take a quurt in the morning\nnnd evening.\nIt is very important to tnke it\nimmediately after milking so as not\nto allow it to cool below blood beat.\nIn cold weather it should be milked\ninto a dish resting in warm water to\nprevent it from cooling any.\nIrwi\nFot R\nAND\n' U.oln.\nMURINE EYE REMED1\nRed, Weak, Weary, Watery Eyes }\nDGRANULATED LIDS\nMurine Doesn't \u00E2\u0080\u00A2\u00E2\u0096\u00A0art-Seethes Ere Palo '\nMurine Era Remedy.

The Victoria government, owing to the disorganization of the opposition, is today the most autocratic governing\nhody on this continent. It punishes those who oppose it, and rewards its henchmen out of the public treasury. It essays to speak for\nthe public through a press subsidized with the people's money.\nTbere is not a Conservative paper in\nthe province that does not draw from\ntwo hundred to two thousand dollars' worth of patronage from Victoria yearly. The sycophantic\npraise of the premier and his mini-\nisters that each paper serves its readers is usually modulated accoiding to\nthe amount it receives. The Liberal\npapers, with the exception of half\na dozen, have been starved to\ndeath. For this, business men in\nevery community, calling themselves Liberals\u00E2\u0080\u0094and who are always\non deck when there is an olPoe in\nthe gift of the federal government to\nbe filled\u00E2\u0080\u0094are partly to blame. Non\nsupport of tbeir party papers by the\nLiberals 'has forced many Liberal\npublications out of the field, and to\ntbis fact is chargeable the one-sided\npolitical anomaly that now prevails in Rritish Columbia. There\nare probably as many Liberals in\nthe province now as there were six\nyears ago. All that is required to\nregain our proper political equilibrium is thorough organization, and\ndecent encouragement to the men\nwho are fighting the party's battles.\nNo i'OMI'I.aints have heen made\nrecently because the immigration\ninspector at this port is nol doing\neverything in his power to keep bis\ndepartment in the limelight. Suspicions are multiplying in the minds of\nmany citizens that this oflice will\nsoon become paramount to the Ottawa government. \u00E2\u0080\u009E\nW.F.ROBINSON\nGENERAL TRANSFER WORK\nWOOD AND ICE\nOFFICE AT CHALMERS' STORE\nPHONF 64 GRAND FORKS, B.

The force that must\nstand behind all law has seemed lacking in schemes for international arbitration. The Ean who loses before a\ncivil tribunal does not yield because\nhe regards the decision just. He\nprobably regards it as unjust. But\nhe knows that the whole force uf the\nnations stands behind the decision\nand can ke employed if necessary to\ncarry it out. This force has seemed\nlacking when contemplating the possibility of a powerful nation refusing to\nsubmit an issue to an arbitration tribunal or to accept a decision rendered,\nThe hope of peace lies in the growth\nof higher sentiments that will crystallize to au international opinion.\nThis may lead toau organization that\nwill enforce decrees amongst its individual members. Even more important than any such practical, work of\norganization is the growth of a spirit\nof peace and good-will, a mutual understanding and appreciation through\nwhich the barbarities of older and\nlower ideals will be seen in all their\nrepulsiveness. The nations are growing to recognize each other as friends,\nand the pride of strength and armament is giving place to pride in leadership toward conditions m whioh war\nwill be impossible.\u00E2\u0080\u0094Toronto Globe.\nWhere a legislature is composed almost wholly of one party, as it is to\nday in British Columbia, the tendency\nis inevitably against the public interest\nProofs multify daily that almost the\nentire adtnistration of oovernment in\nthis province is nothing more nor less\nthan a huge vote making machine for\nthe party in power. We have evidences of this fact thrust upon us on\nall hands. Road appropriations, con'\ntracts, the administration of the\nliquor law, inspectorships under the\nlaws, appointmehts of all kinds, the\nadministration of public ollices are all\nbeing used as bolsters of the party.\nThere are, besides these, suspicions of\na more sinister nature. Stories of\ngraft are rife and growing in number.\nCoercion of the recalcitrants is com\nmon. The condition into whicli the\nadministration of public alt'airs in this\nprovince is drifting culls loudly for a\nwell organized opposition, not only in\nbut out of the legislature. Tho need\nof such organization is urgent. Pub\nlie discussion must be forced. All\nmatters of legislation and public\npoilcy should be thoroughly ventilated\nto the public if it cannot be done in\nthe legislature. As it is a physical\nimpossibility for one man to do that,\nit is important that such a party organization should be effected that\nwould make discussion possible The\nonly dunce for such a purty organization lies in the Liberal party.\u00E2\u0080\u0094Saturday Sunset.\nmeasure, the border states especially\nwill profit from freer exchange of\nproducts with Canada.

If every group\nof 350,000 British subjects were to\nsend a representative to tell the king\nin some \"proper way\" how loyal they\nwere and how devoted they were to\nthe British empire the poor king\nwouldn't have time tu attend his own\ncoronation. Is British Columbia's\nloyalty in doubt that we must protest\nit? Or are we so much more loyal\nthan any other section of the empire\nthat we must needs charge Premier\nMcBride to tell the king about it?\nBoasting about our loyalty is somewhat akin to advertising the virtue of\nour women.

They can al-\nwnys depend upon it doing what is\nneeded.\"\nSo says Mrs. A. Alee, of 170 Chatham Street, Montreal.\nA missionary, writing from the\nWest Coast of Africa, snys: \"One\nboy who was treated for a bad case of\nulcer, came back recently and said,\n'I like best that green medicine.'\nThe 'green medicine' was Zam-Buk.\"\nNow why should children, all the\nworld over, show such a marked preference for Znm-Buk?\nChildren like Zam-Buk because, as\nsoon as applied to a burn, a cut, or n\nsore, it stops the pain and then gradually, but surely, it heals. As soon\nas the pain of a wound ur sore is relieved a child can go on with its play\nand leave Zam-Buk to finish off the\nhealing.\nMothers might look a little more\ndeeply into tiie action of Zam-Buk\nFirst, it is highly antiseptic. As soon\nas applied it stops all danger of festering, blood-poisoning, and inflammation. Second, it is soothing. It\ncools the wound or sore; allays the\nirritation; stops thc pain and smarting. Then, thirdly, it stimulates the\ncells, beneath the injured part, to\nhalthy action, nnd causes the speedy\ncreation of new, healthy tissue.\nOust try Zam-Buk for cuts or burns\nor cold sores, or ec?,ema, ulcers, rashes, bnd leg, piles, vnricose ulcers, or\nany inflamed or diseased condition\nof the skin. Its effect will highly\nsatisfy you. All druggists and stores\n50c. box, or free from Znm-Buk Co.,\nToronto, for price.

He was a\nmember of the Northwest Legislative\nAssemb'.y for two terms and was first\nreturned to the House of Commons\nnt the general elections of 1908. When\nthe recent reorganisation of the Conservative party took place under Mr.\nR. L.

General Told To Go Away.\n| Pen. Sir Ian Hamilton, commander- I\n\ in-chief in th3 Mediterranean and inspect! r-general of the oversea forces,\nhas been inspecting the troops in\nCairo. He is o'ften regarded as the\nmost unlucky soldier in the army,\nand certainly the number of times he\nhas been wounded, to a greater or less\nextent, is remarkable.\nSir Ian is not averse to telling a\nstory against himself. On one occasion he was in the neighborhocd of\nSalisbury Plain, and was watching the\nevolutions of a battery of regular artillery. He ventured to point out to\nthe battery commander that he had\nn'.lowed his men to get well within\nthe range of the force of attacking infantry, and he suggested a withdrawal.\n\"For goodness' sake go away I\" was\nthe impatient retort. \"You are the\nthird of those dasher Terriers who\n'ias been round here to-day trying\nto teach me my work.

Many a time lie imposed\na fine ami then promptly paid it out\nof his own pocket; he give u great\nnumber of men good advice instead\nof a term in jail, and he would never\nseparate mun and wife if he could arrange a reconciliation.\nNewspapermen of Windsor and Detroit well remember \"Sandy\" and his\nadvice. Some six or seven years ago,\non one of the occasion when a number of them had remained in police\ncourt after the session of the court,\nthe venerable magistrate gave advice\nto some of them who were smoking.\n\"You shouldn't smoke,\" he said. \"It's\nbad business. I never smoked in my\nlife.\" Some of the reporters stuck up\nfor their smoking, but he said, \"No,\nit's harmful. Look at Brother William. He's just smoking himse'.f to\ndenth\u00E2\u0080\u0094smoking himself to death.\"\nThe mugistiati! ut that time was\nabout 81 yean old, and \"Brother William\" was then about 88.\nMr. Bartlett invariably stood for\nBritish law and order in a town whicli\nis subject to \"dumpings\" of foreign\ncriminals. He was decidedly severe\non the latter, especially such characters as entered upon matrimonial\nadventures, regardless of former ties\nin the \"States.\" On one occasion\nthere was brought before him an enterprising gentleman, who had taken\nthe ferry from Detroit and settled in\nWindsor, with a view to marrying \"a\nl.idy of means.\" His ingratiating\nmanner brought him success in this\nundertaking, when it wus discovered\nthut more than one wife awaited him\nin vain in the \"Land of tlie Somewhat Free and the more-or-less\nBrave.\" Life became rather strenuous for the foreign gentleman, who\nfinally found himself in the police\ncourt under the searching eyes if\nMr. BarOett.\n\"May I go back to Detroit?\" asked\nthe gentleman of many marriages.\n\u00E2\u0096\u00A0 \"After you've served a sentence\nhere,\" was the amiable reply.\n\"This is no free country,\" objected\nthe prisoner.\n\"Not for such as you,\" said the magistrate, with a grim set of his Scottish\njaws.\n\"Well,\" said the dejected one persistently, as he was led away, \"I\nwant to know how soon 1 can get\nmarried after I em out.\"\nBut the magistrate was too disgusted at this failure to appreciate the\nnature of the marriage vow to make\nany reply.\nCanadians With Mr..

Narrowing sounds, if only for a little distance, keep them from scutterlng\nthrough the air.
