The boy, Bradley Nlekerson, bad never ridden in a stagecoach before, and after ten or fifteen minutes of jolt aud ...roll he decided tbnt he never wanted to ride in one again. Suddenly Captain Titcomb, wbo had been silent so far. spoke. "Heavy sea on tonight," he observed. "'Pears to me Barney'd better take a reef. She's rollin' consider'- ble." The boy laughed and said. "Yes, sir." "Goin' all tbe way to Orham ?" asked the captain. "Yes, sir." "Got folks over there, I presume likely. Friends or nothin' but jest re lations?" "Relations, I—I guess." "So! Well, I've got a good many relations over there myself. Fact Is, Tve got'relations, seems to me, 'most everywheres. Father used to have so many of 'em that when he went vls- ltin' he used to call It 'goin' cousinin'.' My name's Titcomb. Wbat do they call you when your back ain't turned?" The boy laughed again in a puzzled ■way—he scarcely knew wbat to make of his questioner—nnd said tbat bis name was Bradley Nlekerson. "Nlekerson. hey? Thnt settles It; you're a Cape Codder. Minute I meet anybody named Nlekerson I always know they've got tbe same kind of . sand In their boots tbat I have. Is lt Obed Nickerson's folks you're goto' to see?" "No, sir. I'm goin' to live with Miss Prlscllla Allen. Her and her sister. They was some of mother's people." "Sho, well 1 swan!" muttered the captain. "Prissy and Tempy, bey? Then Dan wu'n't foolln'. And you're gol-' to live with 'em?" '■. "Yes*, sir. Do you know 'fem?" i. "Wllb—me? Oh, yes! 1 know 'em. I'm a partlc'lar friend of theirs—that Is," he added cautiously, "1 call on 'em once In asvhile jest to say "How are you?' Why? You didn't hear any of. them fellers at the depot say anything 'bout me and then, did you? No! 'Well, all right. I jest thought— Oh, yes! I know 'em. Nice folks as ever was, but what you might call a little mite 'sot in their ways.' lio you always wipe your feet when you come into the house?" "Why—wby—yes, sir, If I don't forget it." | - "All right It's a ,good habit to git Into, 'specially If you're goin' to walk on Prissy's floors. Sometimes I've wished I could manage to put my feet In my pocket when I've been there. I wonder If I knesv your father? What was his name?" Bradley told bis fatber's name and in response to tbe captain's tactful questioning a good deal more besides. In fact, before long Captain Titcomb knew all about tbe boy, where be came from, how he happened to come and all the rest And Bradley for his part learned that his companion commanded the coasting schooner Tlioman Do- ane, tbat be had been a sailor ever since be was fourteen, tbat be bad a marvelous fund of sea yarns and knew how to spin tbem and that be (Brad- ley) liked him. By and by tbe captain noticed that the boy's replies to bis cheerful observations were growing rather Incoherent, and, suspecting the reason, be ceased to talk. A few minutes later he leaned forward and smiled to rind his fellow traveler, who bad slipped Clow* upon the cushion, fast asleep. When Bradley awoke Captain Titcomb was standing on the ground by the open door of the coach. "Good night Brad," he said. "Here's where I'm bound for. You've got a five minute ride or so more 'fore you git to the old mai—that Is, to Prissy and Tempy's. I'll see you tomorrer. You and me's goin' to be cbums, you know." The door was shut Mr. Small struck up "Camptown Races," and the stage bumped on again. This time the boy did not sleep, but holding on to the strap, tried to peer through the snow crusted window. He saw a light here and there, but little else. After a short interval the coach turned a sharp corner, rolled on fer perhaps twice Its length and then stopped. Mr. Small opeued tbe door, nnd Bradley, looking past him, saw the side of a large house aud a lighted doorway, with two female figures, one plump and tbe other slender, standing In It. From behind them the lamplight streamed warm and bright and sent their shadows almost to his feet "Come on, bub," said the stage driver. "Here's where you git out Miss Prissy," be shouted, "here's your boarder." CHAPTER II. HE plump woman, whom Mr. Small hail addressed as "Miss Prissy," ssascounting into the stage driver's palm a sum ln snail change from a portentous black wallet that fastened wltb a strap. "Good night'' said the driver, pocketing the mouey, with a grunt and a jingle. Like the boy, he had been very careful not to step off the mat "Good night, Miss Tempy. Snow's lettln' up a little mite. Guess 'twill be clear by mornln'. Good night Brad." The plump lady closed the door behind him jnst in time to shut out tbe opening notes of the "Sweet By and By." Then sbe dropped the hook Into the staple, svouud the leather strap carefully about the wallet, placed the latter In a compartment of n tall chest of drawers in Uie comer, turned the key upon it und put the 1. ty under the alabaster candlestick on the mantel. Then she turned to the boy, who. holding his carpet bug with both hands, still stood uneasily on the mat, while the slim lady tidgetecLIn frout of him. ' "Bradley," said the plump lady—she was uressed In some sort of black material that rustled and wore a lace collar. Jet earrings and a breastpin with a braided bek of hair in the center of It —"Bradley, we're real glad to see you. I'm Miss Prlscllla; this is my sister, Miss Temperance." "Yes, Bradley." coincided "Miss Tempy," "we're real glad to see you." She waa the younger of the two and was gowned in wMt the boy learned later was her -brown poplin." Her hair was uot svorn plain, like her sister's, but hud a little bunch of curls over each ear. She also svore a hair breastpin,, but her earrings were gold. Bradley shook the' extended bands, Miss Rrlssy's red and dimpled and Miss Tempy's thin and white, with two old fashioned rings on the fingers. "Won't you—won't you set down?" ventered Miss Tempy after a rather awkward pause. "Why, yes, of course," said Miss Prissy, "and take your things right off -do." Bradley placed the carpetbag on the corner of the mat and pulled off the shabby overcoat. The jacket and trousers beneath svere also sbabby, but lt was at bis" shoes that Miss Prissy glanced, and, oddly enough, their condition served to break the formality. "My goodness me!" she ejaculated. "Jest look at his poor feet Tempy Allen! Come rlgbt over to the stove this minute and take off those shoes. They're soppln' wet through." "No, ma'am," protested the boy. "Tbey ain't, honest. They only look so." "Don't tell me!" commanded Miss Prissy. "Go right over to the stove this minute." Bradley reluctantly obeyed, stepping gingerly across the spotless oilcloth and taking as Ions strides ns possible. It 'did not add to bis comfort to see Miss Tempy shake the melting snow Into the center of the rope mat, fold the latter carefully together and disappear with It Into the kitchen. Miss Prissy piloted him to the chlnti. covered rocker by the big "airtight" stove. Then she proceeded to unlace the patched brogues, commenting In an undertone upon the condition of the stockings beneath. "I'm 'frald." said Bradley fearfully, "that I've got some snow water on your floor, ma'am." "Don't say a word. Thank goodness your feet ain't so svet as I thought they was. Put 'em right on the rail of the stove there while I go up to the garret and get those slippers of father's. I'll be right back." She hurried out of the room just as her sister entered it by the other door. "Now. set right still," said Miss Tempy, bustling about with the steaming teakettle In her hand. "I'm goin' to mnke you some pepper tea. There's nothln' In the world like pepper tea when you're likely to catch cold." "Pepper tea" was a new prescription for the boy, and he watched with Interest while Miss Tempy turned some milk Into a bowl, flooded lt with boiling water, added a spoonful of sugar aud vigorously shook the pepper box over tbe mess. "There!"s.she sa|dv, "Now. drink that, every drop. Ain'tyou hungry?" Bradley, with tears lu his eyes, the result of the first swallow of pepper ten, gaspingly protested that he wasn't hungry, not very. The sight and smell of the loaded supper table were so tempting that the denial was rather half hearted. "Not very! When did you have anything to ent last?" "Mr. Bartlett—he's the s'lectman at Wellmouth—gave me a sandwich at thedepot 'fore I started, ma'am, and I bought a turnover at Harulss." "My sakes! Prissy"—to her sister, who came rustling lu—"he hasn't et a thing but a sandwich aud a turnover since morning. Now, come right over to the table, Bradley, and set dosvn." As the boy ate he looked about the room. It was a big room, with a low celling, spotlessly whitewashed. The oilcloth on the floor was partially covered with braided rag mats with carpet centers. Ou the svludow shades were wonderful tinted pictures of castles and mouutalns. The table was black walnut aud there were five rush seated chairs, each in Its place against the wall and looking as if It were glued there. The sixth of the set he occupied. Then there was the chintz covered rocker nnd another rocker painted black, with u woru picture of a ship at sea on the back. There was another ship over the face of the tall wooden clock ln the corner. This craft was- evidently the Flying Dutchman, for every time the clock ticked It rolled heavily behind a fence of tin waves, but didu't nds-unce an Inch. On tbe Walls were several works of art. Including* spatter svork motto, a wreath made of seasbells under a glass and an engraving showing a boat filled with men, women and children rowed by a solemn Individual In bis shirt sleeves, moving over a placid sheet of water toward nn unseen port "Cap'n Titcomb," remarked Bradley, whose bashfulness was wearing offi, "came over In the cJhch with me tonight" The effect of this announcement was remarkable. Miss Prissy looked at Bradley shook tho extended handt. Miss Tempy, and the latter returned the look. Strange to say, both colored. "Cap'u Titcomb?" faltered Miss Prissy. "Cap'u Ezra Titcomb?" "Yes, ma'am. He talked to me 'most all the wiiy. I liked him first rate." "Wby—why, I do declare! I didn't knosv the cap'n was expected, did you, Tempy?" "No, I'm sure I dldn'tr exclaimed the flustered younger sister. "Did he— i_-J he tell you why he was comin', Bradley ?' "No, ma'am, but I heard him tell tba man that drove tbe coach that be bad shore leave for a week 'cause his schooner was laid up for repairs. He said he knew you, though, and that he wa_.SQ—In' yoo.nd to see me tQUjcji'?-,.'.' (To be Continued) Average Wages In Canada. The Census and Statistics Bureau has issued a blue book as to wage- earners in Canada by - occupation according to returns of the last doeouuiul census. The average yearly earnings at regular work ef all climees of occupations is $387.16 for males and $181.98 for females. Trade and transportation 'pays an average wage ol {503.62 lor every uuUu employe. Professional men, including olergy. Government employes, musicians, touchers, engineers, etc, earn W78.88 per /ear en the average. Average iviriuuga of males employed in manufacturing $443.14; in agriculture, ,"-i*7_t>5 in domestic and personal service, $272.46. Of the whole number of wage-earners, 814,930, the males constitute 81.75 pei cent., and the females 18.83 per oent.; and, comparing the totals of all wage- earners of both sexes by classes with the totals of all classes, it is found that the agricultural —.ass gives employment to 8.93 per cent.,. the domestic and personal class to 25.61 per cent., the fisheries class to 0.91, tbe forestry and lumbering class to 2.02 per »erit., the manufacturing class to 83.83 per cent., the mining class to 2.93 oer cent., Uie professional olass to 6.34 per cent., and the trade and transportation class to 19.37 per cent.

Roughly speaking, every person employed in manual labor, all domestic servants and persons employed otherwise than in manual labor whose remuneration does not exceed $1,250, dine within the act. For all accidents to tlies.e employers are liable. Tlie compensa ion for partial or total Incapacitation cannot exceed $5 a v.'oek. Subject to that limitation, the basis of compensation will be 50 per -ont. of the average week earnings. So long as an employe is incapacitated the payment goes on though it nay be renewod by the purchase of in annuity equal to 75 per cent, of he annual value of the weekly payment. When death results from an injury the maximum compensation is in:ed at $1,500 and the minimum at 3750. A striking example of presence of mind had just occurred in the his-1 8i0ner- tory lesson, and the teacher considered it an opportune moment for inculcating upon her class the many advantages of resourcefulness "Now, children," she said, "suppose a tiger were to seize one of you in its hungry jaws and carry you off into the jungle, what would you do?" No reply. "You tell me, Tommy," she continued, pointing to one of the brightest youngsters. Tommy hesitated. "Come, Tommy," she said. "Would you cry for help5" "No, ma'am," said lie.

Woman Undergoes Ordeal to Refute Accusations of Killing. ■ A remarkable tale of native superstition and credulity was told at the Magistrate's Court recently, when eight Mashona natives from the Mire- was district Underwent preliminary examination for committing certain offences under the Witchcraft Suppression Ordinance, says The Rhodesia Herald. The eight natives were all relatives, and the father of some of them died recently. Not being quite satisfied that death was due to natural causes, appeal was made to a certain native named Chibanda, who the prosecutor stated was a well-known witch doctor, though this fact wa? aot elicited in evidence. The outcome of the incantations was that two of the sons, Mapira and Katiwa visit ed a neighboring kraal and accused n native woman named Kajiwa of having bewitched their father and caused his death. They demanded of the husband ot this lady that she should undergo an ordeal to test the truth of the allegations. The husband asked for three days' grace, saying he wanted hiF wife's uncle to be present at the trial When, -bis spa**' -_d- elapBed. Qhitan- daria, the husband, aceortipanie-T by i his wife and her uncle, a native named Denti, set out for the kraal at which the ordeal was to take place. On arrival the party were directed to s small spruit below the kraal, where the eight natives sat in conclave. Chibanda was mast€j^of.__ll^"noniesJ and sat cooking some liquid in a pot When the medicine was cooked the lady was told to take a draught. It was explained that two draughts oi this medicine would act either as an emetic or a burgative should the woman be a witch. Two draughts were administered, but left the lady un disturbed. Chibanda thereupon again piled the medicine', evidently determined that the oracle should work, and after the unfortunate female had taken 21 doses nature rebelled and the medicine acted in its dual capacity. On this five of the natives sprang up with assegais and kerries, crying: "There is the witch who killed our father. Let us kill her." But the husband and uncle came to the rescue. After some discussion the bereaved sons agreed to be compensated, and as a first in- 8lalment the uncle handed*bver a kaf- fir hoe, telling them if they killed his niece he would .inform ofl them. The lady ancl her relatives'theni went back to their respective kraals. Three days afterward the two natives, Mapira and Katiwa, revisited the lady's husband and demanded the witch to be handed over to them to be killed. This he refused to do, and later tho woman escaped to the native commis- _r*-_k4 4U)b —tons you _m—I. Toll, why firo.

The 1907 vintage must rank as one of the finest Australia has ever had. Abundant rains were the chief cause if this fortunate result. In northeast Victoria the phylloxera is gradually getting a hold and is de- itroying the vino by slow degrees. They are being reconstructed on resistant stocks, however, and it is lioped that the output will in a few years be greater than ever. In South Australia an excellent crop is reported from all the widely .eparated districts. Certain varieties liave failed, but others hnve given a more than usually abundant crop, with the result that the quantity will be about the same as last year, while the quality will be infinitely better.

September 7, Toronto—According to an announcement made this morning by George C Gibbons, K. C„ of London, Ont., chairman of the Canadian section of the International Watersvays Commission, negotiations are in progress between the Government of Canada and the Government of the United States with the Imperial Government a party to them, looking to the arrangement of a treaty between the Dominion and the Republic for the settlement of all international waterway questions. Austin, Texas—The International Harvester Company of Wisconsin pleaded guilty yesterday to a violation of the Texas anti-trust law, and paid a fine ! of $35,000. The company, also agreed that an injunction be entered forbidding ... it to operate in Texas, : "... September 8, Dublin, Ireland—That the Government is apprehensive with regard to the coming' whiter'iri Ireland and is dqubt- ful regarding the loyalty of the Constabulary, since the Belfast agitation, is revealed in the present strenuous ef- ' forts to recruit the forces. The number of the Constabulary has been steadily decreasing for the past four years. The authorities have set aside a part of the Dublin military barracks as additional quarters for the men, and to all \\ officers throughout the' country there has been sent a circular Instructing them ' to hasten to secure suitable candidates. September 9. Paris—The Echo de Paris' Madrid correspondent says it is rumored in military circles th'at France has proposed to Spain to send a Franco-Spanish army of fifty thousand men to occupy the Moroccan ports and go as far as Fez, if necessary. The correspondent says it is stated that Premier Maru and General Martitgui, chief of the headquarters staff, are opposed to this plan, bat that the Minister of War, General / Primo Rivera, supports it. The Eclaire's Madrid correspondent . »ays that Great Britain's influence con tributed to a modification of Spain's attitude tosvards Morocco, Great Britain persuading her to co-operate effectively svith French action and to conform to her rights and obligations as recognized by the treaty of Algeciras.

The other day I wrote to a banker- frtepd inquiring as to the responsibility of a certain perron. The answer came back, thus: "Ho is a Hundred-Point man iu everything and anything he undertakes." I rend the telegram aud then pinned it up over my desk where I could see it. That bight it sort of stuck in my memory. I dreamed of it. A Hnndred-point mau is one who is true to every trust; who keeps his word who is loyal to the firm that employs him; who does uot listen for insults nor look for slights; who carrios a civil tongue iu his hoad; who is polite to strangers, without being "fresh"; who is considerate towards servants; who is moderate in his eating and drinking; wlio is sviiliug to learn ; ss'ho is cautious anil yet courageous. Hundred-point meu may vary much 111 ability, but thin is always true—they ure safe luou to deal with, whether drivers of drays, mnturmou, clerks, cashiers, engineers or presidents of railroads. He is mora interested iu doing his Work than what people will say about it. He uets his thought uud thinks littlo of tlie act.' The Huudred-poiut man looks after just one individual, uud rliut is the lunn under his osvu hat; he is o.m svlio does not spend money until he earns it; who pays hit way; who kunsvs that nothing is ever given for nothing; who keeps his digits off other people's property. When he docs not kuosv whut to e>ny, why, he says nothing, nud when ho dors not kyosv what to Uo, does not do it. Wo should mark ou moral qualities not merely mental attainment or proficiency, because in tl.c race of life only moral qualities count Wc should rate on judgment, application and intent. Meu by habit and nature svlio are uutrue to a trust, are dangerous just iu proportion as they are clever. I would like to see u university devoted to turning out safe men instead of merely elever ones —Elbert Hubbard. "SPARE ME MY DREAMS!" By Richard Watson Gilder. I.

After graduating from the University of Maine in 1893, he took a post-graduate course at the Colby College, Wattsville, Maine, in 1896; afterwards taking two years in the Newton Theological Seminary at Newton Centre, Mass. He has just closed a very successful period of 18 months for the Advent Christian Ohurch, Manchester, N. H., and severs his conneotion with them only after an earnest appeal from the Vancouver church, and the description of the city and province, he felt the opportunity for gospel work greater here than in New Hampshire. Elder Kittredge is an earnest and eloquent speaker. A cordial invitation is extended to all to attend the Advent Christian Church on Seventh avenue. The Anti-Asiatic Demonstration. The anti-Asiatic parade on Saturday last was a huge success, several thousand men being in line.

There were a number of banners inscribed with various mottos: "Stand lor a White Canada," "Steamer Mont- eagle will arrive Sept. 11 with 900 Hindus, 1,100 Chinamen and a bunch of Japs," and winding up witn "What shall we do to be saved?" there was an effigy of Lieut.-Gov. Dunsmuir whicll was burned in front of the City Hall. Tiie hail was packed and a large crowd was addressed in front of the hall. A third crowd marched up and down Westminster avenue to the music of a fife and drum band until someone shouted out "All in line boys for Chinatown," wliich was enthusiastically responded to. On arrival in Chinatown a wholesale smashing of plate-glass windows took place, thert a march to tlie Japanese quarters took place and more windows were smashed. The police made many arrests Saturday and Sunday nights, and by Wednesday quiet was restored. On Tuesday the Orientals bought all the revolvers, knives and ammunition they could, until the authorities notified the hardware men to stop selling to them. After the events of Saturday it seems strange the hardware merchants would sell weapons to the Orientals. it is to the credit of Mount Pleasant hardware men that they refused to sell weapons or ammunition to the Orientals. On Tuesday all the Chinese employed as domestics, cooks and in all lines refused to go to work, through fear or a desire to show horn much the community depended upon their labor. A couple of Japs were injured by flying stones and one white man was stabbed by a Jap and two injured by being attacked with glass bottles. While the destruction of property resulting from the rioting on Saturday night, the 7th, is to be regretted, yet it shows the pent-up animosity of the whites towards the Orientals. It should have the effect of waking up the Federal authorities to the necessity of prohibiting the importation of any more Asiatics. The increasing number of Orientals coming to this country partakes little of the qualities of an immigration for the development of the country's resources. It is a wholesale importation, an invasion to be looked upon with grave solicitude. Wherever there is a white man or woman at work for wages, whether in domestic service, the factory of farm, there is an opening for an Oriental. No matter how low the wages may be, the Oriental can afford to work for still lower wages. This servile labor must be prohibited if we are to have a "White Canada." 1090 "The Advocate" ISO!

You feel simply wretched—tired, worn out, dull, your nerves are irritable, your whole system is out of gear. There is just one medicine that will give you strength and vim to endure the fag of even the hottest days—Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. They have helped thousands. Perhaps jrour neighbors have already told you they have helped them. They're the medicine that makes that pure, rich, red blood that everyone needs for good health—they never fail to do that. Mrs. L. A. Carriere, the popular stewardess of the Jacques Cartier club, Montreal, Que., says: "For two years I was a constant sufferer from general debility. The least work fatigued me and sometimes I could not work at. all. I could not raise my hand above my head without feeling pains in all my muscles. I was very weak and sometimes became so dizzy that I would fall unless I could lean against something for support. While in this condition I was advised to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I t'id so and by the time I had taken mn boxes I was in perfect health, and am now able to look after all .ny duties without tne least fatigue. When I began taking the Pills I was a great sufferer—today I feel as if I never was ill—thanks to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills strike right at the root of anaemia, debility, rheumatism, indigestion, the S'e- ret ills of women and growing gins, etc., when they make new blood— they do just that one thing, but they do it well—good blood always brings good health.

Perhaps the greatest waste of human life ever recorded was caused by tbe cutting of a canal in China. Tbe work was begun in 1825, and, though the canal was twenty-three miles long, eighty feet wide nnd twelve feet deep and passed through forests and marshes, lt was finished ln six weeks from Its be. ginning. No fewer than 20,000 men worked at It day and night, and 7, not a thing to be considered lightly. There is something so solemn and awe-inspiring in its steady lack of speed that words fail the passenger who fain would hurry; and anyway his thoughts could have no legitimate expression under existing laws. The fat man losing ground while running to catch a train is liable to an attack of heart failure. So is the London 'bus passenger who feels that a train must be caught, or that a destination must be reached within any given time. After one has seen a London 'bus he realizes the mechanical ideal that has inspired designers of challengers for the America's Cup. The 'bus is built on solid, substantial, British lines; resisting obstructions to the last degree—air, water and mud. For centuries the world has known and respected the resisting qualities of the British troops. When they have met their foes, have they wavered cr faltered in fighting every inch of the ground? Never! Something "has got to bust" when Britons go into action —sometimes the Britons themselves, but the balance of victories is on their side. The London 'bus is British from it- rain swept top seats to the place where the springs ought to be, and when it meets a sea of mud, think you it fears to give battle? Not while it hangs together! Onward plunges the gallant 'hus through torrents cf garment wrecking substance; bouncing, bumping, lurching, shaking, palpitating, hearing, rocking from end to end and side to side—an invaluable training for an ocean voyage—and at the end of a few hours reaches a point somewhat nearer it- destination than it was before starting—unrecognizable but triumphant. Agassiz, pre-eminent as a naturalist, after seeing a single detached bone, could reason out the whole structure of the animal of which that bone had been a part. What Agassiz was to animal life all Londoners are to vehicles. They Bee a fearsome mountain of mud approaching. The foreigner thinks it an evidence of a landslide, but even the small Londoner knows it to be a 'bus, and the expert adult can tell by the texture of the mud what route it has passed over. If that brilliant bnt misguided map maker Napoleon Bonaparte had had a loyal fleet of. London 'buses when he tried to cross-the English Channel Admiral NelBon's name would have appeared only in the appendix to naval history. It bo happened, however, that Nelson had in his service several boatloads of men well qualified to drive 'buses, and their resolute methods of driving through obstacles won Trafalgar and made famous the saying, "England expects every man to do his duty." Although the all conquering spirit of the London 'bus haa tabued British armies for hundreds of years the symbol itself has not been used in warfare. However, the War Office and the Admiralty may yet advocate the nse of squadrons and batteries tf 'buses to dislodge future enemies from exceptionally strong positions. Water- loos and Balaklavas could "be won easily with 'buses to do the charging. What would a few thousands of mere men avail before vehicles that had bidden bold defiance to London streets? Port Arthur would hoist the white flag when it heard the 'buses coming. Gibraltar, if in other hands than English, would take to its heels.— New York Herald. that Give V How We Contribute Mrs. Gould—Now, about charity ball we are going to. me a cheque for £25.

"In Austria-Hungary," writes a Vienna correspondent to a paper in Hamburg, "playing ln the various lotteries Is so general that the people who do not buy a 'chance' or a fraction of one for every drawing are exceptions. When a mun makes his calculations for the year's expenditures a certain 'amount ls charged to the lottery account with the same belief as to the necessity for the Investment ns though it were rent, coal or cburcb dues. In addition to tho Individual playing many men nnd women are members of lottery associations, to which they contribute a certain sum annually, for which they participate with the other members In the various drawings. Sometimes wben people of moderate means have gambled for years without seeing any return for their Investment they stop.

THE ADVOCATE, VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA. 1 RN6ER PUITS MD TffciR WHEN Marie Antoinette .became Queen of France, so runs the story, she shocked her courtiers and ignored tradition by calling ln a man to dress her hair and invent the coiffure a Iu Marie Antoinette. 1—onard, the hairdresser, was an artist in his line, and he took the fair tresses of the lovely Austrian, drew them over a trellis of fine wire, introduced a cushion or two, and finally built a tower almost a foot high, whicli he topped with a nodding ostrich plume. Now, i. we are to believe the prophecies of the fashionable hairdressers of today, the American woman of 1907 bids fair to follow ln the footsteps of the fair but unfortunate French Queen. ColffurLS are becoming more and more elaborate. What our French brethren call "postiches" (whicll, as near as we can come to it, means something false or superadded) are being used in their construction, and if this state of affairs continues, we will be constrained to follow the example of tlie Japanese lady wlio dulnes in ti fresh coiffure once a month nnd sleeps on a block to prevent tlie disarrangement of her hirsute edifice. Little huts are at the root of the matter, a small tint shows nil the ugly lines of the head, and there are few women with hair enough (even If it could possibly be twisted Into tbe desired shapes) to till nut all the places that need tilling, and so we must needs buy linger puffs. Wust Match Your Hair Exactly Ol course, the linger puffs cun be made from combings of your own hair lf the cuinbiugs are in good shape unit if you have a skilful manufacturer of hnir goods In your own neighborhood. Otherwise it ts well to buy your puffs ready made. Go to a reliable hnir dealer and see to It that the puff matches your hair exactly. Single puffs are convenient, as they can be adjusted to suit the individual taste, but one of the best coiffeurs in tlie country recommends the chignon puff as being tbe most satisfactory nil around. This is mude on a llttle wire frame with fo_r or Ave 4>.ul—, Which can be dressed dally. Women who are blessed with curly Jmlr by nature should never ccssc to give thanks for lt, and since curls are desirable, whether natural or artificial, /iy your finger puffs of curly.hair. If your pompadour Is prone to fall flat /r droop into ugly lines, the finger pjffs . more especially the ones made from ;urly hnlr) can be ruffled up and pinned under the hair ns pompadour plumpers. They are lighter, more comfortable and give a far prettier and more graceful effect than any of the numerous "tats" of wire or hnir that have been used for the purpose. For an Indoor coiffure the finger pufl_. may be pinned nlmost anywhere Unit suits the fancy of the wearer. They must be pinned securely, of course, and now there are shown tiny bunches of curls—five or less In a bunch—which *re pinned on top of the hend to give a finishing touch to nn elaborate arrangement. , . When the finger puffs nre to be used for their prlmnry purpose—tbe ft'ilng ut of ugly _-3p» that are revetted by r. narrow hat—pin your hat on first, then time a hand-mirror and study your deficiencies carefully. When you have readied a decision, pin the purrs in place. Use long wire hairpins, and fasten tha pi-ff securely ut each side. Also pm your hatpins through the puffs to the hat, for lur bettor to have li.id no f] puffs at all than to be suddenly bereft of them in the street. When the last puff ts in place, study the effect again by the aid of yeur mirrors, and if all is satisfactory, adjust your veil, and go forth rejoicing in an up-to-date end becoming coiffure, A careful woman will tnke good care of her finger puffs. She will roll them over her fingers, of course, to keep them ln shape, and she will brush them to keep them smooth. When hir finger puffs are not In use she will not toss them pell-mell Into her top drawer to await the next wearing. Instead, she will have a special place to keep them, so that there will be no danger of tumbling or breaking the hnlr. She mav even have a sachet for them. In which they can be Wrapped nnd given Just a SUfg'.Stlon of her fnvorlte perfume. 7/arrow &rm£ out iQJyJO' SAVING HINTS As to Sleeves ARE your sleeves bothering you be- cause they look out of date? If so. Just note some of tho fashion plates and see what you can do with a little ingenuity. First, If they are of that variety wcrn comparatively recently, "baggy" at the hand and small at the top, turn them upside down and add a modern cuff or band. They may need a little piecing right at the seams, top and bottom, but, well done, this need never show. If they are merely tight. Insertion or vertical bands will remedy the evil. Or, possibly, they may be tucked or gathered In somewhere, if so, let all this out and press well so that the old stitchings will not show, and try cutting a new sleeve. Don't feel distressed lf the under side is not quite so straight with the goods as you would like to have it, if It comes out better that way. Make the rest of your sleeve carefully and give it a good touch. No one will notice the under side, and the sooner you yourse^ forget it the better off you will be. »- . i When Catches Come Out W-MKN catches come out of gloves, It Is not necessary to discard the gloves, by any means, for they can be put back again unless they have torn the place from which they have come. Do not be discouraged lf, on examining the hole left by the departed catch, lt seems twice as large as the catch Itself. This ls probably merely because lt ls stretched and will not make any difference ln the replacing. With a fine needle and cotton, not silk, overcast the hole ln small stitches, not going very deep Into the glove. A very shallow overcasting will hold without pulling out. » Draw the hole up sic V, and carefully around the button I' the groove meant for lt. If the work ls done otherwise than slowly and carefully, the thread may break or the material may pucker. But lf done as prescribed, even a large hole will gradually fill in and fall Into place. After the thread has been drawn up in this way, It should be wrapped around the clasp two or three times to make all secure and the thread finished off on the wrong side. If these directions be exactly followed, no sign will be left that the catch has ever parted company with the glove. rA Troublesome Sunt "Arithmetic," the Sum remarked, "Is not In Willie's way; If 5 a chance, most terribly I'll puzzle him 2-day.
