It is regrettable that the lietter judgment of the club had not prevailed. We hope to see the league started next season under stronger and more definite rules.

The Editorial Viewpoint A Personal Word wan our Readers: The Free Press, it's Ideal, it's Politics, it's Purpose and Hepe We lake much pleasure in presenting to you; readers of the New Km, people of Chilliwack and of the far- famed Kras.-r Valley, the first issue of the Chilliwack Free Press. A paper with a now name, published in n new ottice by a comparatively new I'Mitor, in a much enlarged and improved form, on ft new cylinder newspaper press, from a complement of new type. Six weeks ago, the now editor ami proprietor of the Free Press arrived here from Pilot Mound, Man., and in taking over the New Kra did so with ft firm belief and the growing importance ami future possibilities of this City and Valley. With this in mind, a newspaper and job printing plant has been installed seldom equalled in li city of this size, with which equipment — and the ability and energy we will, we hope, Im) able tu concentrate oil the work—win for us your approval and co-operation in (he forward step we have taken in the newspaper field in the Harden City of British Columbia. In this day of competition, quality and service, count for much. To possess these assets, the newest and and most up-to-date equipment, together with knowledge gained by practical experience, are first requisites. We modestly claim these for ourselves, thus befitting us to meet the growing needs of the City and the individual needs of all. In addition to the foregoing and to what we said in our " Introductory," we also adopt at this time a political policy. Many readers have been curious to learn what the attitude of this paper would he on the question of politics. At the outset we wish to state that the Chilliwack Free Press bus not been been bought or pledged to support, any party, or either candidate in this election. Nevertheless, having given both attention and thought to the various important issues now submitted U tho electors, and having acquired some knowledge of the needs of the country and the liesl available means of meeting and serving them, the Free Press has decided to support, with whatever ability it may possess, the Liberal party during this election. And we will do so, so long, and so long only, as we consider our conclusions correct. In making this statement it does not mean that the Conservative party or it- policy will l>c abused. AH will meet with nothing but fair treatment in these columns : " Charity toward all and malice toward none.*' We propose todiscusspolitical questions dispassionately and without prejudice. Fulsome flattery and virulent recrimination are alike foreign to our taste, and we venture to hope that as time goes on, our honesty of purpose and fairness of method will lie acknowledged by our readers ot all political shades of opinion. We take it that the great majority of (he people of this favored spot in It. C, are broad in outlook, fair minded, and above the adoption of of small tactics toward each other, arising out of an honest diffeience of opinion on any subject. Regardless of nil other interests, our first interest is our City of Chilliwack, and all that pertains to its material, social, and moral advancement. The Chilliwack Free Press will not l»e a party to, or countenance to (be least degree, any politi- •iiI or oilier faction in any matter »f local interest or development. This I'ity, like all others, to grow ami produce the best it has, must have the united and Undivided sup* port n| all its citizens nil the time. We trust that we have made our position clear to all. Wo will endeavor to merit your support and Hint an ever increasing degree of the favor ami patronage of the people of the Fraser Valley will Iw extended to the Chilliwack Free Press.

When it is drawn it is poured from the big cap into dainty little noes im big- gt-r than an eggshell. The method followed in Japan Is almost similar.

In the working ol royal trains safety is naturally the tlrst consideration, and Uie most elaborate precautious dealiiig In detail with every phase of railway working are issued to all having any connection with the working of tiie train, and these are supposed to be kept strictly private. Primary 1 importance is attached to signalling, | ana whenever u royal train is being worked all signal-boxes on the route, and all intermediate block-posts, j which, in the ordinary course, would be closed, are opened, and wherever . necessary tiie signals are lighted a considerable time before the "pilot'' j is due, and remain su until tlm royal 1 train has passed. All goods trains are cleared ul the main lines at least half an hour be- ! fore the royal train is due to tiass, ami all shunting operations un sidings i and contiguous lines are suspended. \\ Drivers of trains standing in sidings or adjoining lines are strictly instruct- ' ed to prevent their engines from emit- j ting smoke; steam is not to be blown I off, and whistling is prohibited. Station-masters arc charged with , the placing of reliable men at facing [ points over which the train will run. j thirty minutes bolora its timed arrival, and they remain ut the spot I until It has passed. The facing poind 1 are curcftillv examined, securely clip- {)cd and padlocked soon alter the pilot las passed, ami slgn&Uboxei aro visited to ascertain that Die signalmen ant fully acquainted with the special instructions. The greatest vigilance is observed at, nnd adjacent t<), all stations through which the royal train f.asses. Approach road gates and gabs sadlng to goods yards ami sidings are closed and locked before tho "royal" is due, and the station-master holds the keys until the train has traveled . a good distance from tho station. !

We have not yet reached tha end ofj the sorrows of Jeremiah, ami thesu < today's lesson seem to have been some uf the greatest, but all were because of the truth ami the God of truth (Isit. Ixv, IU) whoso witness he was. It has been a long lime since he ceased lo|| complain of his suffering* for the trtiin s sake, hut he still awuib* the lull glory of the kingdom which by the1 spirit be foresaw uud predicted. Many others have come ami gone, uml tiie' kingdom is not yet. uud the sufferings continue for the fuithful, but "thi't Lord (i"il oi recompenses ahull surely requite" (Jer. li, fail, and the suffer- ings are not worthy to be compared with the glory tlmt ahull be revealer1 (Horn, viii, 1«; I Pet. iv, 13). It seems easy to say it, hut it is true that suffering for the truth's suke great privilege uml will bring ua great] glory in His Kingdom (IMiil, i, si. II Cor. iv, 17, IB). Alter Jehoiakim' miserable death ami seemingly no buriiil or as good aa none (Jer. xxxvi, .'to), hia .son, .Icconinh, reigned three] months, which was about tin.- same as no reign ut nil, and was then curried captive to Kuliylon, where he was a prisoner thiity-six years. The books of II Kings uml of Juruniiah end with tlm record of lliu deliverance from prison after tlmt lom- period. His. lather's brother, ZedcKiau, was then; made king, ami lu- reigned eleven years, hut neither he nor his servants nor the people of tin- lanil would' hearken to the words ol the Lord (veree 2), ulthotigh they professed to, want Jeremiah to pray for them (verse .1), and more than once Zedekiah consulted him (verse IT; xxxviii. M). The Itnd twenty-two years before the captivity, the tune "I these four king-*, was a time of increasing evil ami s specially trying time for a faithful Nat Foe witness like Jeremiah, but no one i*.

There waa no new wont, hut just Ihe former one concerning the captivity in Ilnhylon. Jeremiah took occasion to ask why he had been imprisoned mid to nsk thut he might not he sent hack to where he hud been, so he was left for a time in the court of the prison (verses 18-81)—just a breathing space ere his persecutors would ugttin seek his life, but it would be helpful while it lusted.

Why Bread Causes Fat. I ' Whit- bread la fattening because we rarely digest it completely. Starchy . foods are quite unaffected by the gas. trie juices which digest the meats. ] Their digestive li-rmeuts are obtained chiefly from the saliva in the mouth. | which' therefore should be thorough!) I mixed with each mouthful before swallowing. But white bread is su soft and lacking in substance that we unconsciously swallow it long before it has hf-.it a fair chance to become su**- , flciently permeated with the digestive ; saliva. The result is delayed digestion (if digestion takes place at all), and at the best the starch is very apt to be convert.-.1 into disfiguring, unwanted and uuhealthful fat.—London Mall.
