It was stated that, lumber is the only industry of importance in Canada which is without some form of protection and vigourous efforts are to be made in an endeavor to persuade the Dominion authorities to levy a duty on the product. They decided to memorialize the provincial authorities against making any increase, direct or indirect, in the royalties charged, such a proposal having been made, it was understood by the association. It was stated too, that the industry in its present condition could not afford to pay any increase in royalties*. It was also stated that over 300,000,000 feet of Ameri- cad lumber were thrown on the prairie market last year. At a meeting of the fruit growers of Duck Creek and Wynndel. held in ths Social club rooms on Sunday last it was decided to form a cooperative association to be known as the ''Co-operative Frnit Growers of Wynndel, B.' O." Thp following officers were elected to carry on the business; President, E. Butterfleld; General Manager, O.J. Wigen; Directors,- P. Hagen. F. .T, May and H. Reid. Mr. Wigen wil} act a? Sec-Treae., pro tern. In his speech, Mr. Wigen gave the plan most explicitly and all the. growers feel coiifideut that he will do his utmost to make a success of the undertaking. The association will meet every alternate Sunday in the club house at 4 p. m. dating from Feb. 9feh. Jackson- Kowarth Frank H.

They are also concerned about batter and eggs, for they are of the opinion that if there is much traffic in these produce-? it will be necessary for post- offices to be equipped with refrigerating plants, or at least with an ice box of suitable capacity.

At Ferisovitch, where the | Albanians resisted, more than 1200 j were killed, only three Mohametan Al- j banians over 15 years of age being j left alive. j Five thousand Albanians were killed ; at Prishtina. The writer admits that. j the Turkish officers here misused the i white flag, and the Servians in revenge j slaughtered hundreds of families down j to children in the cradles. | There was no resistance at Priz-' rend, but 400 persons were killed in \ the first few days after the entry of ��� the Servian troops.

He will perform the truth to Jacob and the mercy to Abraham even as He has sworn (Mic. vii, 20)".. ���������'���������' This is worth noting now, as we are about to begin; the study of the story of Abraham.' To those who would dare to question there ever was a. man called Abraham we would say��������� consider Jesus Christ and His testimony in such pavssages as Matt. viii. 11. 12; John viii. 56. The number twelve is suggestive of all Israel and of the time when the twelve apostles, shall sit on twelve thrones, ruling the twelve tribes (Mart, xix, 28; Luke xxii. 30). The seventy nations of Gen. x make us think of the other seventy whom He sent forth after He sent forth the twelve. The Babel story of Gen. xi, 1-9, points us onward to the consummation of rebellion against God before the promises to Abraham shall be finally fulfilled (see Rev. xiii: xviii). Tbe -spirit of Babylon may be found everyv/here today and is easily reeo^nised Jt>y the principle: Let us make-us a narne, (Gen. xi, 4), instead, of: Let aus wake Him a name. I know well that the wisdom of men. under the name of scholarship, new theolGgy, etc., derides a great many things, which are plainly written in tbe Scriptures, but I am one of those who believe all' things written by Moses and the prophets and that there shall be a literal fulfillment of the same, even as Christ Himself taught. From to-day's lesson onward we have the story of Abraham, the friend of God (11 Chron. xx, 7; Isa. xii, 8: Jas. ii, 23), to whom the Goo of Glory appeared and said: Get thee out of thy country and from thy kindred and come into the land which I shall shew thee. - .It is written of him: By f ait- Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed, and he went out, not knowing whither he went (Acte vii, 3; Heb. xi, 8). He was for more than 150 years contemporary with Shem, the son of Noah, and I do not doubt but that he had heard from him "of paradise, the naming sword, the eherubini, the future ���������.1���������>���������*. ���������4, xn ..a.3*.....

Part of. this congestion is due to the fact that elevator space is short but we consider the major part of the delay is caused by the Railways either through lack* of system or want of switching facilities as we are aware of numerous cases where the terminal elevators are anxious to unload the grain if the Railways would only place the cars at the elevators.

With profound knowledge of the sabject the Saturday Night proceeds to enumerate the four great stumbling blocks in front of agriculture today, the cost of clearing land, need of be ter road?, high transportation rates, and high assesments. Our Creston Valley is not gasping under the burden of these adverse conditions. There are other factors of vital importance which will doubtless be found by our contemporary on a ptirsual of the report of the Agricultural commission when the findings of that body are brought down. When these facts are fulty known and laid before the Government they will be in a position to provide and we are confident will provide adequate legislation effectually dealing with the situa. tion.

Sho needs $20 for books and tuition fees. Her mother ia unsympathetic, and Elnora tells her troubles to Wesley Sinton, nxi old neighbor. When Elnora was born hor father was drowned in a swamp, embittering her mother's life. Binora determines to raise money by gathering forest specimens. The Sintons buy clothes for her. Elnora, getting her books cheaply, finds a market with the Bird Woman for butterflies, Indian relics, etc. Mrs. Comstock _ devotion to her husband's memory will not permit her to sell trees or have oil wells dug on her land. The Sinton3 bring Elnora new j clothing. i Elnora is delighted -with her outfit. Her t mother says she must pay for it. Wes- ' ley and Margaret Sinton discuss the girl's affairs He left the trail, entered the inclo- 8Ure still distinctly outlined and approached the case. The first point of light flashed from the tiny electric lamp on his vest. He took a duplicate key from his pocket, felt for the padlock and opened it. The door swung ���������wide. The light flashed the second time. Swiftly his glance swept the interior. '* 'Bout a fourth of her moths gone. Elnora must have been with the Bird \Voman and given them to her." Then he stood tense. His keen eyes discovered the roll of bills hastily thrust back in the bottom of the case. He snatched them up, shut off the light, relccke*-, th������ case by touch and swiftly wen down the trail. Every few seconds he paused and listened intently. Just as he reached the road tbe low hoot of a screech owl waveringiy rol ������ng*d fe*l on his e^rs. ind he stoi ped. &.n in- sta later a second figure approached _im. ���������Ts it you.

"No: 1 am-going down this w.-.y." an * swet-ed Pete, for his eyes caugbt the gleam from tlie window ot the '.'om- stock cabin.��������� and he bad a desire tn learn why Kluora's attic was lighted ai that hour.

"Bi'-l. 1 bent you just about seven minutes." N^ The attic wns too long, the light too near the other end. and the cabin stood much too far back from the road. He could see nothing, although he climbed the fence and walked back opposite the ���������window.

He did not care to cross behind the cabin. He returned to the road, passed and again climbed the fence. Opposite the west window be could see Elnora. She sat before a small table reading from a book between two candles: Her hair fell in a bright sheen around her* and with oue hand she lightly shoo- and tossed it as she studied? The man stood out in tbe night and watched. For a long time a leaf turned occasionally and the hair drying went on. The man drew nearer. The picture grew more beautiful as he approached. He could not see as well as he desired, for the screen was of white mosquito setting, auu ������t angered hiin. He cautiously crept closer. The elevation shut off his view. Then he remembered the great willow tree shading the well and branching across the window at the -west end of fhe cabin. From childhood Elnora had stepped from tbe sill to a limb and slid down the slanting trunk of tbe tree. He reached it and ���������aoiselessly swung himself up. Three steps out on the big limb the man shuddered. He was within a few feet of the girL Binora closed the book and laid it aside. She picked up a towel and, turning the gathered ends of her hair, rubbed them across it and, dropping the towel on her lap, tossed tbe hair : again. Then she sat in deep thought, j By and by words began to come,softly. \ Near as he was the man could not hear at first He bent closer and listened intently. ���������"ever could be so happy," murmured, the soft voice. "The dress is so pretty, such shoes, the coat and everything. I won't have to be ashamed again, not ever again, for the Limberlost is full of precious moths, and I can always collect them.

He stood still a long time, then, started back to the Limberlost. A tiny point of light flashed in the region of the case. He stopped with an oath. "Another- hound trying to steal from a girl," he exclaimed. "But it's likely he thinks if he gets anything it will be from a woman who can afford it as i did." He went on, but beside the fences and very cautiously. "Swamp seems to be alive tonight," he muttered. "That's three of us out" He entered a deep place at the northwest corner, sat on the ground, and. taking a pencil from his pocket, he tore a leaf from a little notebook and laboriously wrote a few lines by the light he carried. Then he went back to tbe region of the case and waited. Before his eyes swept the vision of the slender white creature with tossing hair. He smiled and worshiped it until a distant rooster fuintly announced dawu. Then he unlocked the case again and replaced tho money, laid the note upou lt nud went hack to concealment, where he remained until F.luora ear.ie down the trail in the morning, looking very lovely in her new dress and lint.

H* banded Elnora the leather lunch boa:, with her name carVed across the strap in artistic lettering. "Oh, TJncle Wesley!" and that waa all Elnora could say. "Your Aunt Maggie filled it for ma for a starter," he said. "Now. if you are ready I'm going to drive past your way and you can ride almost to Onabasha with me and save the new shoes that much." Elnora slipped the strap and turned back the lid. This disclosed the knife, fork, napkins and spoon, the milk fiass and the interior packed with dainty sandwiches wrapped in tissue paper, and the little compartments for meat salad and the custard cup. "Oh. mother!" cried Elnora. "Oh, mother, isn't it fine? What made you think of it TJncle Wesley? How will I ever thank you? No one will have a finer lunch bos than I Oh. I do thank you. That's the nicest gift I ���������jver had. How I love Christmas in September." "It's a mighty handy thing," assented Mrs. Comstock, taking in every de-. tall with sharp eyes. "1 guess you are glad now you went and helped Mag and Wesley when you could, Elnora?" "Deedy, yes," laughed Elnora. "and I'm going again first time they have a big day if I stay out of school to do it" "You'll do no such thing," said the delighted Sinton. "Come now, if you're going!" "If I ride can you spare me time to run into tbe swamp to my bos just a minute?" asked Elnora. The light she had seen the previous night troubled her. "Sure." said Wesley largely; He was having such a good time nothing could hurry him. So they drove away and left a white faced woman watching them from the door, her heart just a little sorer than usual. "I'd give a pretty to hear what he'll say to her." she said bitterly.

Newton Mappin; head of the firm of Mappin & Webb, Limited. It will be an installation fdr, the panoramic display of 'wild animals. Mr. Mappin announces his gift in a letter to the council, in which he says that the installation would be an important step in your successful efforts to make the London Zoological Gardens the best in the world from tbe j point ot view of the animals them- I selves, and the visitors, . | If my offer be accepted; he adds, it j Would be very agreeable to me if the council .were to arrange that lt he asso- ��������� dated with some special benefit to London shop assistants, as for instance, that they be admitted to the gardens at the rate of sixpence, instead of a shilling on an afternoon I each weekday convenient to them. j The Mappin terraces will occupy an area shaped like the quadrant of a circle with a tea pavilion opening on a wide terrace on the low ground at the apex, so as to afford a general view. i of the successive tiers of Inclosures for animals. The highest portion will be a crescent-shaped curve of rock work rising into four peaks, and suitable for goats, sheep and chamois. At the foot of this will be a terrace for visitorS. giving on one side, a near view of the goat hills, and on the other a view from above, through openings in the masonry, of the lower crescent for bears. ror the bears six large inclosures will be provided, each containing a pond, rockwork and shelter caves. ' The inclosures will be separated from the second terrace for visitors by a deep ditch, across which the ani mals will be seen without the intervention of bars. Below the bears' dens will be placed four lar^e paddocks for ruminants, such as deer, and a large pond and lawn. The hills will be modeled to represent natural scenery, and" the inclosures for bears and ruminants and the two high terraces for visitors will re present massive Roman architecture ! OPERATION FOR PILES FAILED Zam-Buk Was Then Tried and Worked a Cure . Writing from Poplar, B.C., Mrs. C. Hanson, wife of the proprietor of the Commercial Hotel, says:. "I suffered for years with bleeding piles. The pain was so bad at tinnes that 1 could hardiv walk, and ordinary remedies seemed utterly unable'to give me any? ease. Finally I decided to undergo an operation, and went to the Sacred Heart Hospital in Spokane. There they performed an Operation and did all they could for me. For a time I was certainly better, but within 12- months the trouble started again and the piles became as painful as over. I tried liniments, hot poultices, various 'pile cures', and indeed everything I could think would be likely to do any good, but still I continued to suffer, and the shooting, burning, stinging pains, the dull, aching and wretched 'worn-out' feeling that tbe disease causes continued as bad as ever. "One day I read about Zam-Buk and thought I would try it. The first one or two boxes gave me more ease than anything else I had tried, so I went on with the treatment. In a short time I began to feel altogether different and better, and 1 saw that Zam- Buk was going to cure me. Well, I went, on using it, and by the time I had used six hnves I was delighted to nnd myself entirely cured. That was three years ago, and from then to the present timo 'here has been no re- lui ii ui i.at; nuuuic, Zam-Buk is a sure cure for piles, eczema, ulcers, abscesses, cold sores, ohanoed hands, varicose sores, burns, scalds, bruises, inflamed patches, and ill skin injuries and diseases.
