It has been erected at great expense and the institution is In need of money. The good tlmt bas ti-eeti done in South East Kootenay by the Sisters iu the building now in use at tbe Mission, can never be estimated, and the worda of gratitude spoken by hundreds who have recovered under the watchful care of the Sisters tell only a portion of the story. The new Institution is deserving of assistance from every town in this district. It is so located that patients can be easily taken from the train to the building where the best of accommodations will be provided. The ladies are to engage in a noble work in raising funds for such au institution, and the people ofthe district will be with them. STRICKEN BV PARALYSIS. Mrs. C.

Mrs, Clark was alone and it was somewhere near 12 o'clock when it occurred, but hhe was nimble to secure assistance until ber condition was discovered the following morning. The sympathy of South Kast Kootenay goes out to Ibe poor lady in her misfortune For 17 years she has resided In Fart Steele and to be acquainted witb her was to reconcile one to old age. Her many estimable qualities had endeared her to all of the early settlers, and their sorrow on learning of this calamity will be great indeed. ANNUAL MEETIN0 OF CLUB.

REPUBLICAN CONGRESS IS ELECTED And Hugh John McDonald Goes And the Policy of the Administra Down Before Sifton In Manitoba. QENERAL RESULTS EXPECTED IW ALL The returns in lhe Dominion election, as a whole, diil nut neetn lo be much nf a surprise to either Conservatives or Liberals, Of ronrse there were some surprises in several imliviiliiiil contests Imt it was generally concluded tlmt the Laurier goverumenl would lie sustained. Up to 12 o'clock last night tlu* results ;is shown by the returns were ns follows: tion Will Be Upheld for Another Term. THE DEMOCRATS SOLEMNLY SAVAMEN Prince Edward lslntid. New Brunswick Nova Scolia Quebec Ontario Manitoba North West Ten itories British Columbia Ub. ■ 4 in . 16 ■ 57 4 4 7 50 4 Total Liberal Majority ... 62 Five more to benr from. These figures show- that the people j have sustained Lnuiier ami his government by a large majority. A remarkable feature nl the contest was the fact that every member of lhe ] government was returned, while every Conservative leader of any prominence ! with the exception of Ilnggart and Charles Hibbert Tupper, were defeated, j Hugh John McDonald, who wns looked : upon as the coming lender of the parlv was defeated by Hon. Clifford Sifton In Brandon, Sir Charles Tupper|was defeated iu Novia Scotia, Montague was defeated, in Hatdiuiand, and Foster uas snowed under by Blair in St. John. From the returns available it appears that the Conservatives made a net gain of about 14 seats in Ontario and three in Manitoba. In the Territories and British Columbia no change was made in the respective ttrength of the parties. In Prince Kdward Island tbe Liberals made a net gain of one seat. In New Brunswick they gained live. In Nova Scotia they gained six and in Quebec they gained ten. These figures give a gain of seventeen seats for the Conservatives as against a gain of 22 for the Liberals, which would make tbe Liberal majority greater hy five, from the returns available, than it was in the last house. Thc rlertion in the Stales was settled Tuesday and lhe early reading of tbe returns showed beyond question that Brvnn bad failed the second lime, and that McKinley woidd remain iu the while bouse four years more. The republican victory is overwhelming. The defeat of Bryan is absolute and positive. New Vork, Indiana, Ohio, Illinois, South Dakota, California and Washington, all debatable slates, turned to false gods and Mnmon this year. It is hard to predict what tbe election means for the future. The American people bave made a clear declaration Thc Jssues were plain, and they have voted for trust isms, militarism, expansion hy conquest, high tariff and a straight gold (-standard. If, within the next four years, the common people ol that country feel the heavy baud of oppression, tbey have only themselves to blame, Tbe election was in their bauds and they decided it in favor of MeKiu- leyism and Ilaiinaism, and tbey defeat- ed W, J. Bryan, a noble type of Ameri- ican citizenship, a tearless tribune ofthe people, who lias always stood by tbe working people and against the unjust oppression of capital. They have made their bed, aud it is a twenty to one shot they will have Borne hard sleeping during the next four years. l:xplorli( Liar* Hive Been (tun to tbe Sul- llvii Mine.

In fact, at the present lime ore Is piled up all over the property and ia increasing ou ihem at an enormous rate, lt has been impossible to make headway with the teams, owing tn the soft condition of the roads, and better means of transporting the ore is now an absolute necessity, rn************************* * • Keep the Dollars in Cranbrook' Christmas is coming.

Probably the bitterest fight in the Dominion* was the Sifton-McDotiidd nin- test iu Manitoba. The whole country was interested in the contest, ami never before had every inch of a district been fought so hard. The latest reports slum that Sifton wou the battle by four or live hundred. Oliver Beats Bennett. In the Territories the fight between Frank Oliver and Mr. Bennett attracted □o little attention, and the latest returns show a victory for Oliver, the Liberal candidate. Aasinihoia—R S. Lnke, Conservative, elected over Douglas, who was returned In 1896 with a majority of 1054, Lake's majority his not yet beeu ascertained. AsBlnibola West—Walter Scott, Liberal, haa probably defeated Nicholas Flood Davin, Conservative, who was returned in 1896 by the returning officer's vote.

Wisconsin went republican hy at U-»->t 75,000. On last Snturd-iy night lhe electors of Cranbrook had an opportunity nfhear- ing Mr. McNeil, the Conservative candidate (or Vale-Cariboo at the coming Dominion election, and also Mayor Goodeve, of Rosslaud. Owing to the fact tbat the meeting was billed for Saturday night, a number ol merchants and others were prevented from being present, but notwithstanding Ihis a goodly number ol people turned out lo hear the C( nservative side ol the story. Al 8:45 tbe meeting wai railed to order at VVentWOrtll hall l.y the chairman, J. Hutchison, wbo introduced Candidate McNeil to those present. Mr. McNeil spoke for about an hour and Confined bis remarks lo shoeing how lhe promises of the Liberal parly mule before the la>l election, hud been broken. He argued that oul of Ihe ten planks of the Liberal platform not one was carried out. He Bald that if elected be would go to Ottawa to support the Liberal*Cousetvatwe party and that the policy ol that part) would be his parly. "The people of British Columbia, "he said, "could thank tlle Conservative party that they were able to live in the country. It was Sir John A. McDonald and bis party who luok British Columbia into the confederation of provinces and promised to build a transcontinental railway, which pledge lias beeu fulfilled." Mr. McNeil wns gieeted wilh much applause at the conclusion of his speech. The chairman then introduced Mayer Goodeve., of Kossland. Mr Goodeve is a convincing spi-aker and lie •■went afler" the present government with both feet. He dwelt fur some time on the Yukon Railway bill, which was thrown out by tbe senate. He said the govern* ment was prepared lo give MeKenzie & Mann 3559 square miles of gold bearing land including lhe mineral therein to build a tramway, (he said it could uot he called a railway!, a distance ul 150 miles —these .-,559 squure miles tu be picked ftom lime lu time as the contractors saw fit. Mr, Goodeve s.id that there were not 3559 square miles uf gold bearing land iu the Dominion, let alone the Vu« kon. He called it an iniquitous bill and said that Canada could thank the senate for throwing it out, He spoke al length of the way in which ihe present administration has handed over the coal oil industry to the Standard Oil cumpany and showed bow the people of Canada loose annually two million!* of dollars which was saved under the Conservative regime. He spoke of the Drummard counties railway scandal and many other things, and held Ids audience throughout. Whether one agrees nr differs with Mr. Goodeve, he is undoubted 1) a most pleasing speaker. Tlie meeting closed at about 11130 with cheers for the Queen, McNeil and Goodeve, P. Burns In Luck. "Unto him that hath shall be given" is well exemplified In the case of Mr. Patrick Hums, the cattle king of the west. Some years ago he assisted a mining e*pert and engineer whom he met in British Columbia but the man did not make a success of it and went away. Mr. Bums lost sight of him. Some time ago he wrole to Mr. Burns saying he had discovered rich copper deposits in Old Mexico and asking Mr. Bums to assist him in development. Mr. Burns sent a man down to report. He returned and said that everything the discoverer had reported was true. Not satisfied with this Mr. Burns sent another man to report and he came hack with the same story. Then Mr Burns decided to go bimself, He has just returned after having secured control of the property, which comprises a veritable mountain of copper and supposed to be one of the largest deposits of copper on tbe continent. The mines, for there are several included in this property, are within a few miles of the sea, which renders the transportation of the ore easy. Steam wagons carry the output of the mines to the sea, where it is loaded on steamers and carried lo the nearest smelter. Already there are over 200 men at work on the property. It is reported in Calgary that Mr. Bums was offered two millions of dollars for the properly but thai he refused to sell. Mr, Bums said that be had a high figure of fered him fur his rights, hut he believes Uiat when the properly has been full) developed it wil! command I greatly increased ;.rice should he feel disposed to sell it. lt is generally believed in Cal gary that tbis latest good fortune will add several millions In Mr. Burns1 b..nk account before long. But he will not re linqiiisb the cattle business, In that he made his tlrst great success nnd laid the foundation oi his wealth, now largely augmented, for "unto him that hath shall he given." GREAT COAL DEPOSITS Southwestern Alberta Is Rich in Nat' ural Resources. COAL, IKON AMI PETROLEUM A Wonderful Development Is in Store ior This Marvelous Country 1 CAPITAL THE TMIMi NOW NEEDED South Bast Kootenay can boast of having as neighbors lwo of ihe richest dis- tricts in the Dominion of Canada, The riches of West Kootenay are now so well known tbat there is Utile more to be said on that subject, bnt the riches of ihe district of Alberta areas >et not comprehended by the public. It has long been supposed th.it tbe Pernie Coal compauy at Pernie and the Qalt company at Lelhbridge mouopoliie 1 all tbe available co.il south or tbe main hue of the C. P, railway, but the energy lately shown by various wealthy corporations as well as by individuals In searching foi other coal beds bas produced unexpectedly great tesulU. Immense bodies oi coal heretofore unsuspected have been discovered, aud 11 li easy to forsee a very large population living Along the foothills in Alberta from away north of the Crows Nest railway down to the International boundary, 1 distance of some sixty or seveoty miles, mining millions ol tons of coal » year, ind engaged iu the manufacture ol the various by products of which tbe coal industry is the natural cause. Large bodies of low grade iron ore are known to exist beside the coal, and near the Boundary line there is a very large tract of country showing many indica- tlons of petroleum extending for a distance of twenty miles nn each side cf the summit between British Columbia and Alberta. A member c! the Mormon colony at Cardston has 3 bouse and some crude machinery on Oil creek, near the extreme easterly end cf this petroleum field, and from acoupleofsmall, shallow pits dug in the gravelly clay beside tbe creek he skiins lhe crude 01! and sells it to his brother Mor mans for lubricating purposes at a higher price than auy other oil on the market m :'.'. fetch. Whei: Nmtbetn Alberta :■* producing petroleum in large quantities, coal by thousands of tons fer day. and shipping coke and pig iron in large quantities, it will be oue of the richest districts in North America. The interest taken in the coal possibilities is shown by tbe presence cm the ground of representatives of the Fernie company, the Gait company, the Great Northern railway, a large New York syndicate, a Spokane syndicate and many others.

AN UNFAIR DISCRIMINATION. It is unfortunate that the people of London, while preparing tbeir celebration for the return of their soldiers sbould give cause for unfavorable com ment by their recognized neglect of th< volunteers from the colonies. A Lon don dispatch to the Toronto Globe has tbis to ray ofthe matter : » Ii is pointed out thnt the intense patriotism which all this Is supposed to signify, would he better appreciated were the returning soldiers more representative of tlu* forces in the field, or if there were not hundreds '.tf colonial volunteers whn have fought III South Africa, walking the streets of London uuhon- ored, unnoticed and uncared for. This circumstance has caused some bitter re- (lections to be cast on the mother country by tbe colonial sections in London, the justice of which has been acknowledged bv several liberal-minded organs while the regular army men are too pleased that the "cream of public enthusiasm" over the return of the troops Bhould be secured by a small body of volunteers, which it is freely asserted, cuuuot compare wilh several of the irregular units " A.

Augustus llnutenville, Catholic bishop of New Westminster, arrived iu Cranbrook Friday, the a6ih of October, accompanied hy His Excellency Archbishop Falconlo, apostolic delegate in Canada, aud Father Fisher, the delegate's secretory. At tbe Cranbrook station the party was welcomed by a great crowd, mainly composed ofthe Catholic citizens of this place and n large number of the Indians ofLSt. Eugeue Mission, headed by the brass hnud from the industrial school i.f the Mission, Upon the arrival of the train, which was on schedule time, the hand played one of their best tunes, serenading the distinguished party, and the train, delaying more thau usual, the apostolic delegate had time to make hc- iju* Intance with many people and especially with Right Rev. Fathers Coc- colo ami Ouellette and their Indians from the Mission reservation. At the special request of the delegate the Indians were gathered together iu the C. P. R.

HOW THE GREEKS SLEEP. r-aaildlous People Fln-d *» Coavtm- lenees at the Hotels, In Greece the hotels of the interior follow* one general type—the Italian.

Thin that I mn going to tell happened In the good old days. Il could not very well happen now, because, nn I «av. things have changed. At the time Uot- iy Mnndcvllle's father was in command at Apache and Hcii.v was engaged tu be married to nn unusually line fat low, whose nnme is not part of ilu* story. IU* was a second lleutena.nl and he wns in love, with nil the beautiful disregard of the (acts of life that la characteristic of the enamored sl-nte. Of course the post knew of tlie engagement before either of the two most Interested parties did. This wus because this happened in the good old days. For the same reason—though 11 can occur sometimes even now—opinions on the match flew thick uud fnsl and obscured t|w> sky of charily. The) said that the second lieutenant wus milking n fool of himself, which wns the only unkind remark ho fell heir to. llul Betty fared worse, She enme of a bad strain. There were things in the histories ot both lifer parents that every one knew und no oik* wns supposed to know. Her father was Knglisli nnd had been a jockey. He wan the son of « conoert-hall singer mid a man whose only nobility was his birth. Miss Mandeville, who was more Mexican thnn* Spanish— horo a., good Castlllan name which covered a multitude of sins. There were any number of Mandeville children younger than Betty, and all unmistakably favoring their swarthy mother, They were so dirty tbat they wen* a disgrace to the post. Dut Hetty waa tidy—na to dress and wns blonde; Huffily, curllly blonde, with 11 line skin nnd innocent blue eyes und a rosebud mouth. It was wild she looked like nu English professional beauty; but there was no one to recognise the startling likeness to the concert-hall grandmother, sin* hnd n taste for laces, mid hosiery, and high-heeled slippers, that may hnve been cither a Spanish or theatrical inheritance. And she W08 beautiful beyond a question, with a beauty tliat was only akin deep. After she had promised tn marry the second lieutenant, Hetty went down to Lowell to \\isit her aunt, who was her mother's sister aud was the wife ol Cnpt. Locke. Hetty knew that she would enjoy herself more lt the engagement were kept u secret. She could keep It quiet, because it wnn in the good old days mid news traveled slowly uud distances were great. fin the second day of her stay hei aunt look her to stay over night with Senor Fraiiqiielo in Tucson, Which was the beginning. The Franqiielo family was large, and most of it dwelt in the uno bouse—an adobe with the external whitewash broken otf in oddly-shaped pieces, and built as all adobes were built In tin' good old days—om* story around a courtyard. There was nothing in the courtyard bul chickens and olhts— broken and otherwise for tin* soil of Tucson is not fertile. Outside, where the narrow doorway faced upon the slreet, hardly leas while under the burning suu than the whitened walls that lined it, 11 movklng-blrd cage of willow hung against the house, with a led chile stuck belweeu ita bars.

Hetty aud her mint went hack to Lowell tho next day, nnd the same even* Ing Curios rode over to tlw {sml to we her. There were six officem calling on Miss Mandeville, sn Carlos sal apart and sulked; bul he outstayed Ihem ull. When they hnd goue, after o supper of canned oyster slew and tamules, he drew bis chair close beside the sofa upon which Hetty was half reclining. "Wy tio you like doze ooffeecers better dan me?" ho asked her. "1 don't," suid Betty, "they're a liore." "I)<) yon noot, truly?'' "Of course I don't; how could I?" Carlos was not accustomed to Hetty's like, and, as even those who should have known letter, had believed ber, because of her round, blue eyes, be was not to Ih> blamed for his faith, "Would you rader talk lo mc'.'" "A great deal rather." "llut dey haf stayed so lut-c dat I must soou go." "lt'n not late. It's only half-past twelve. It would be too bud of ymi lo go Jusi when we begin lo get a ahnnce to settle down to a nice, cozy talk." CarloH persisted coyly. "But you weel weesh to uleep."

Canadian "Very well" Miss Mandeville shrugged her Bhoulders, "then you luul better go. lues 11111 v get anjrry if you Btay, and you like her more than you do nn-." Curios denied this in words that woro neither kind nor just to lues; but Betty damned lier with faint praise, sin- was noi a clever conversational' isl, imr was Carlos FrmiqUelii, but they kepi ench olher Interested until very late, und when Carlos wenl home Hetty stopped uut in ibe from porch with htm and put her band in his, with lhe least hll of a pressure.

N.m. with Hetty's benuty and other attractiveness, it was natural lhat she should have a great* deal of nttenllon from the bachelors* but Carlos'devotion was so marked lhat they drew off oun by one, leaving the field pretty much to him. They resented Hetty's permit- ling tin* young Mexican in follow her about incessantly, even though he were ■a second cousin. As (or the girl, until it was too late, she did not see lhc barm sin* was doing. Then all the officers had deserted her and there wns only Carlos, Well, Carlos wus handsome uud good enough gume, .so she led him on. It was not, her fniill, surely, llial slit* dldn'l know the ways of Mexican loverB, She had told plenty of olher men tlmt. she' loved them, and nothing bad happened. Hut .mi' night ahe told this to Carlos i't his urgent request, and the next day. at ubout "stables," as -she was swinging lazily in the hammock on the porch, sin* saw threo buggies, containing two men each, coming up the line. In the first sat Carlos nnd his brother, in the others, remoter male relatives, Hetty guess-vd thc truth at onee, and her pink elu-eks turned white. She ran inlo the house, and screamed loudly for her uncle, •_ "Ohl Uncle Nat." she begged, wben alio found him in Ids room, "Carlos, and .lose, and all his nasty old relatives are coming here. Send tbem away, won't you? Please do." She clung to his arm. "Why shall I send them away? Arc thev going to murder Uie poor little ■jirl'?" "No, no, no. llut I think they're going to ask you to let me marry them I" "Allot them?" Hetty losl her temper and How Into a white rage. "Stop your fool joking, and do what I say! Vou tell ihem I'm sick, and lell that—Curios that I bate him." She ran and hid ju-st a*-* the bell clanged, Carlos found tho captain, and made his demand in due form. The young lady's father not being there, he felt that her uncle could take the place of a parent, lie wished to ask the hand of liU beautiful niece, know ing that she herself was willing to bestow it, "How do you know that?" the captain nsked. "She tell me w>." •"When?" "Las' night. She tell me dat she lofed me, so to-day I come for to ask heir from you." "Are you sun* she said she loved you, Franqiielo?" "Oh! ylas, suirtlnly.

He's mi idiot Ui think I mean every little thing I sny." "|iid you kiss him?" "No." The captain's fnee cleared—then he Iwthougbl him of the ways of women. "Did vnu let bim kiss vou?" "Perhaps, I don't know." lie cnugbl her hand. "Come in here to Kratiqiiclii ami explain yourself. You'd better suy you'll marry him after tlml proceeding." Betty was frightened. Her defiance changed to pleading. "Please don'l make me see hlm, Uncle Nat, dear. Please." "Conic on." "But, Uncle Nat, l enn'tsny 1*11 mnrry bim, 1 was only fooling, tm engaged In nuother man." Capt. \\tOoho dropped her hand and returned lo (he sitting-room. "Prnnquelo," ho said, coldly, for he disliked Ida nephew sincerely, 'l regret thui Mils unpleasant tilingshouhHiave happened to you under my roof. My niece tells me that she was nol in earnest, anil ahe is noon to mnrry another rnnn. However, she will not stay auolher day with me lo trouble you or anyone else. I shall send her homo tonight." Carlos' face, as he silently left tho room, was an ugly sight. Hetty wns sitting sulkily In the wait- Ing-room at the Tucson station about 7:30 o'clock the same night-.

Carpenter, on the oilier hnud, is so decided in his anticipations of Republican success that lie will, If Bryan is elected, wear all his clothes reversed. The hip pockets of his troll* sets will he in front, he will button his coat and vest ou Ills bnck, and even his shirt and collar will he turned around, so that bis necktie.

Peru, Ills.—Horace Wilkes of this city and Walter Cartwright of La Salle have made an election bet which Is strange, but true.

Only n M Ihu nde rat fin din v. Several years ago, lu a well known wholesale house In n big manufacturing towu, an old bachelor bookkeeper, who hnd been mauy years with the llrm. suddenly announced that he was to be married, The partners gave him a week's holiday, nml bis fellow clerks raised a little purse nnd presented It to pay the expenses of his wedding trip.

"So l had," wns the reply, "but 1 didn't understand thnt '* was Intended to Include her." Th-**- Word "Snlnrj," The way languages are built up Is very Interesting, and the derivation of lllC word "salary" Is curious as well. In nnctont times Roman sold Iocs received a daily portion of salt us part of tbolr pny. "Sal" ts tbe Latin for salt, nud when the salt wns in course of time commuted for money the amount wns called solarium, or salt moiiey; hence our word "salary" and hence, doubtless, the expression "not worth his salt"- that is. not worth bis "•■■iilt money," or salary.

Senntor Smvy-fr (Irl-Klnnt-r-d Tlmt Effective Form <>' Leglelatloii, Senator Phlletua Sawyer wns the Inventor of thnt form of legislation known as "log rolling." It was the practical result of his ability to accomplish tilings. He never cared for show. He never made a speech iu his life, but uu muu enjoyed the Bensatlon ot lucceii mure keenly. Wlmt he undertook he carried out, end if he couldn't do it in one way he did it iu another. He hnd a large share of that faculty the Yankees call "contrivance," which enabled him to devise means toi accomplishing bli purpose that would unt have suggested themselves to any other man. The "log rolling" method of legislation wns suggested to him liy the familiar habits nt the lumbermen In his own country, who help each other roll the log* from the winter camp in the bHiiks ot the ucarest stream, where they enn be caught by tho spring rise. It wuh the application of this neighborly practlcs which enabled Mr. Sawyer to secure legislation Hint could not otherwlas have been passed, nml he gave the methoil ita Lame. Wisconsin needed a guud deal of legislation when he first dime to congress, uud Mr. Sawyer secured more thnn nny 10 other men could hnve dont, He let hla hills accumulate until toward the cud of the BCBSlon, when he would lnke up thc cnlciidnr uml tnnke nicinorniiiliiin.-i of vn- rlous measures In which Influential men In the llOUBO nnd senate wer-w iiiteirsted. Then lie would eall llieni together nt hll honse or nt his committee room ami say: "lloys, we've got tO iiii u little log rolling if we get our timher to the mill thin BCSBlon." Tin* result would he an agreement to Hliiml hy each other nud throw nil their combined lufluenco In favor of a list of bills which he Iiml mude out and handed to members of the combine. The work was conducted in secret and wus almost nlways successful, so that the hub- Its of the Wisconsin lumberman now prevail lu every legislative body lu the world. Thc river ami harbor appropriation bill originated in that wny. Formerly a separate measure would he passed for each river or harbor that required improvement, but under Mr. Sawyer's log rolling system the members of congress interested iu such appropriations organized a trust, which finally grow Into a regular annual appropriation bill and a special committee to frame it.—Washington Letter ia Chicago Bucord. PARSON, FOX AND HOUND. The Man Who Waa Short » Ilowud Made the l'araon Own tip. The politicinn told mc this story after wc had concluded the interview. He told It to Illustrate n point in his interview. No matter whnt the point was, the story will apply to n great mnny points. "Our minister," said he, "supplies for a church over in.the back part of the town aud drives over there every forenoon. Tho olher day, iu the course of his sermon in the back part of the town, he used this illustration: " 'As 1 was driving here this morning, brethren,' he said, 'I heard the deep hay of a hound on the hillside near, nnd, looking up, I beheld a little fox running. " 'But though the fox was running hard and fast the hound was mnking great plunges through the snow and was gaining with every leap, and at last the hound overtook the little fox, and that was the end. " 'Thus, brethren, does sin with horrid hayings pursue mankind, ready to slny and devour and destroy,' etc. "At the conclusion of the sermon there I came one to the pulpit and twirled his lint in his hnud nml asked If he might have a few moments' conversation wilh the parson. So they retreated to one side. " 'You spoke of seeing a hound this morning, elder,' caiil the man. 'Would you mind telling me how that hound was marked?1 " 'I can't say that I noticed,' replied tha minister, hemming and hawing. " 'You sec, elder, I have lost a hound,' continued the mnn, 'aud I thought you might be able to help me a little iu finding him.' " 'My denr man,' said the elder, straightening himself nud patting the other's shoulder, 'tlmt was an Imaginary hound for the purpose of illustration,' "And." continued the politicinn, "I know something nbout these Imaginary hounds in politics.

Dlffeatlve 1'roceNnca Arc Carried on In Hh Living CelU, It is more than 2,000 years since philosophers began to speculate nhollt the food of plants nnd what we may term their "digestive" processes, hut it is only during the lust halt century that really clear and definite notions concerning thc food supplies of the vegetable world hnve been generally ncceptod by scientific men. As far as is known, the first botanical experiment ever performed was conducted by Van Ilclnmnt. He placed In a put 200 pounds of dried earth, uud lu it he planted a willow branch which weighed live pounds. He kept the whole covered up nud daily watered tho earth with rainwater. After five yeurs* growth the willow was taken up and again weighed and was found to hnve gained 104 pounds. The earth iu the pot was dried and weighed and had lost only two ounces. Knowledge was not yet sufficiently nil viiiiei-d to finable Van Helmunt to interpret these striking results Correctly, and he enme to the erroneous conclusion that the increased weight of the plant was due to the water which luul been supplied to the roots. He therefore llokod upon this experiment as supporting the theory which he had advanced—vis, that plains required no food but wnter. Stephen Hales advanced the subject ii great step by indicating that much of the increase in weight of plants was derived from carbon dioxide iu the air. Vegetable cells contain n liquid known hs "cell snp," whieh is water holding in solution various materials which have been taken Up from without by the rools and leaves. These materials lire thus broimht in contact with tlie protoplasm, which causes thein to undergo changes in composition which prepare thein to be added to the substance of the plant. Thus it is in the protoplasm uf the living ceils of the plant thnt those "digestive" processes are carried on which Aristotle believed to occur in the soil. We see, then, lhat the living cells are microscopic laboratories in which tbe digestion of the food of the plant is carried on.— Knowledge, Pretty Hit ot Suiientltlon, When a Chinese baby takes n nap, people think its soul is having n rest- going oul for a long walk perhaps. If the imp is tl very long one, the mother is frightened. She is afraid that her baby's soul has wandered too fat* nwny nnd cannot Ond its way home. If it doesn't come buck, of course the baby will never awaken. Sometimes men nro .sent out Into the sheets to call the baby's name over nml over again, as though it were a real child lost. They hopo to lend the toul back home. If a hnhy sleeps while it is being carried from one place to nuother, the danger nf losing tlie soul along tho wny is very great.
