THE NEWS, CUMBERLAMD, BRITISH QPLUMBIA, To Digest Food Hmong the First Indications of Exhausted Nerves���������the Cure is Dr. Chase's Nerve Food. The most important, function of tlio organs of the body is the digestion ���������and assimilation of food, and in this process is consumed an enormous vf-aantity of nervous energy. As tlie result the moment disorders ���������of tlio nerves arise, digestion i.s impaired and the very source of health, strength and vitality interfered with. To prevent physical bankruptcy the ���������nervous systoni must be built up bj ���������������������������.outside aid, such as the use of Dr. -Chase's Nervo Food, a preparation ���������composed of the very elements of nature which go to form new blood and ���������nerve colls. Besides this restorative influence -on the wholo system, Dr.. Chase's JNervc Food has an immediate and direct effect oh thc digestive system. It stimulates the nerves of taste and ���������.Induces a good flow of saliva to aid ���������digestion. It excites the glands of the stomach and produces a plentiful supply of the gastric digestive fluids. It sharpens the appetite and arouses Jiunger. Especially where appetite and the digestion, regular ability to digest have diminished, as iu nervous exhaustion, anaemia, the result of sickness, overwork, or worry, Dr. Chase's Nerve Food is by nil odds tho most effective treatment that can possibly be obtained It ensures good healthful action of the liver, kidneys and bowels and tho building up and revitalizing of the whole system. "Mrs. George Fuller, Lakeland, Man., writes: "I am very glad to be able to state that I havo received great benefit from the use of Dr. Chase's Nervo Food. It has cured me of nervous headache from which I used to be a great sufferer, and I am no longer troubled with twitching of the nerves in the arms and legs that I used to have as soon as I went to bed. I am grateful for this cure and shall always recommend Dr. Chase's Nerve Food to anyone suffering as I did." Dr. Chase's Nerve Food, 50cts. a box, at al^ dealers, or Edmanson, Bates & Co., Toronto.

Even as Into as the middle tol the eighteenth contury a dandy would dross himself iu a vivid green coat, a waistcoat of scarlet, yellow breeches and blue stockings.

The popularity of the Canadian Northern line as a short and direct route between "Winnipeg and Edmonton is evidenced by the large passenger traffic being handled by this road. The increasing business is not alone confined to local traffic. The solid through trains to Edmonton carry through first-class sleepers and dining cars serving meals a la carte. This train is a, marvel of travelling comfort, gratifying every demand of the tourist and pleasure-seeker. The line runs through a newly-settled and picturesque portion of the Canadian West, which is now attracting the attention of thousands of home seekers, as well as of the shrewd investor. Prince Arthur of Connaught will patronize this line in travelling, from Edmonton to Win- ���������mpeg^A*diiclwAvali_affai^_His^ighness an opportunity of viewingtlie ncliest��������� agricultural lands of the Canadian West. The fares between "Winnipeg and Edmonton and other stations on tlie Canadian Northern have been reduced, and parties .contemplating a trip should consult any Canadian Northern agont for full particulars which will at all times be gladly furnished, A SPRING TONIC.

We are showing much righteous indignation over the Russian treatment of the Jews, but it is only a matter of 700 years since we .were on* the side of the offenders ourselves. In 1275 the first Edward, as the chronicler tells ns, "being shocked at. the connivance of his father in giving the privileges of Christian natives to the Jews," not only deprived them of all the rights of citizenship, but also ordered that they should wear badges ou their upper garments by way of distinction. Beseems, however, to have been against illegal violence from the first; for when 200 Jews wero hanged in London for clipping the coinage, it is pleasant to read that this was only after a fair trial had been given them, and that several Christians, their accomplices,, suffered with them. It was the Archbishop of Canterbury, "who, iu 1285, ordered all the Jews' synagogues to bo destroyed in the City of London. This was paving tho 'ordinance by which, in 1290, all dews were banished from England, "they having rendered themselves infinitely odious to the whole nation by their usury and extortion." They were allowed only "such sums as were necessary to defray the expense, ol their voyage to the Continent," the 1'ost being confiscated by the king. Ed- Vvard I. again showed his sense of justice even in doing this act of injustice, for "when many of these unhappy wretches in their passage were murdered by the ��������� mariners, through, hopes of finding treasure concealed about them, the king severely punished the assassins on their return to .���������England." In some ways mediaeval England was ahead of modern Russia. To show the futility of all ordinances professing to be "forever" the Jews were, recalled in 1C54 by Cromwell, he ���������"being influenced by a desire of improving commerce."

"It makes a fine leather, the hide of the porpoise," said a leather manu-1 factum*; "soft, pliable , and waterproof, and it retains these excellent qualities through long wear. It is rather a costly leather, worth, say, twice as much as calfskin. "Porpoise leather is used for making shoes and laces. It is more >.sed in England than in this country. Here wo run more to lighter weight shoesj and wear rubbers when it rains. "In England, with a moister climate and need for more constant protection for the feet, thoy wear fewer rubbers and habitually more heavy and waterproof shoos. Incidentally I supposo if we should stand anyAvheie in tho world whero numbers of men pass and look only at their feet we could pick out the Englishmen among them by then* shoes. "Sharkskin is tanned into a leather that has various uses, mostly for more or less ornamental purposes, as ,foi bags and, purses. The skin of the shark is naturally rough surfaced, and fishermen dry and prepare it and use it for sandpaper. "Leather made from the hide of the seal is used to a considerable extent tor bags and belts and jmrses and card cases and so on, including shoes. "The alligator, to be sure, is an amphibious animal, not strictly aepiatic; but it is aquatic enough to be included among aquatic animals whose skins furnish materials for leather. The uses of aligator. leather are familiar. "And then we have the walrus, from whose hide a valuable leather is made, that is used chiefly by manufacturing jewellers. It is cut into disks to serve as wheels for polishing jewelry. "So you see we draw supplies of leather not alone from the skins of many land animals but also from those of quite a number of the creatures of the sea." THE CARE OF CHILDREN. Nowadays wise mothers do not dose their children with harsh griping castor oil or purgatives, nor do they give them poisonous opiates in the form of so-called soothing medicines. Baby's Own Tablets take the place of vthese harsh and dangerous medicines, and the mother has the word of a government analyst that tlie Tablets are absolutely safe. Baby's Own Tablets cure indigestion, constipation, colic, teething troubles, diarrhoea, simple fevers and othor little ills of child- diooclr-���������An~occasio4aL^OBfi^jvi]L_kee]y children well. Mrs. R. E. Long, Peachland, B.C., says : " I have found Baby's Own Tablets unsurpassed for teething troubles, breaking np colds, reducing fevers, and other ills, and they make a child sleep naturally. I now always keep them in tho house." Ask for the Tablets at your druggist or you can get them by mail from the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Out., at 25 cents a box.

McClure * f Big Pierre Laloup sent his canoe down stream with such mighty strokes of the paddle that the tough ash bent In his hands and bade fair to snap. Twilight was falling���������the soft, mysterious twilight of the forest that made .black shadows beneath the* tamaracks while the sky blazed red and gold above the treetops. The pipe of birds came musically through the stillness, and far away a white owl was hooting dismally. Ordinarily Pierre would have loitered along, drifting Idly with the current and watching the night descend upon the forest, for, familiar with it all as be was, these early summer twilights cast, their spelL.upon him. They made him content witb the world and with hlmielf. But tonight the spell was rudely shattered. He wanted to paddle hard enough to blot out his bitter thoughts. For a long time he had known it was coming. He had endeavored to prepare himself for the shock. Yet now that it was here, despite all his fore- Bight and his determination:'to take the blow stolidly, his heart was full of ranking bitterness. Yes, he had known It that day in early spring, when De- nlse Beauchamp had come back from the convent a thousand times prettier and a thousand times more intangible. He had known then that she had gone quite beyond the pale of his dreams. The Denise who came back from the convent was not the Denise of old. This hew Denise, with the big, starry eyes .that looked one through and through, wa*s a bewildering creature. In her presence big Pierre felt like an awkward, bungling schoolboy. Her cool, quiet voice, with its subtle ��������� im- - going down stream, and despite their hospitable protestations he pushed his canoe into the stream. And so big Pierre Laloup went paddling madly back to his own clearing, his heart crying obstinately for Denise, even as a poor blind'mole might cry for the sun. .:.*'��������� ��������� ��������� ��������� ��������� ��������� It was autumn, and there was a touch of frost in the air before Pierre found heart to go to Beauchamp clearing again. He wanted to buy a wedding present for Denise, and with a view to seeking Pere BeauchamVs ad. vice on this point he paddled up the Little Otter. When ho reached the clearing it was ominously silent. He shouted lustily as he headed the canoe for the bank. In answer to his shout he saw Denise come running toward the stream. "Keep back!" she called. "You mustn't land!" "Eh? Why not?" he asked, amazed. "It is smallpox," she exclaimed. Big Pierre drove the nose of his canoe to, the bank and stepped out. "I am not afraid," said he. "Is be here with you?" . She Hushed as sbe divined his mean- "He���������he was here at the beginning, when* we first knew what it was, but he went back to Montreal. I think he ,was afraid," she confessed. Pierre scowled. "I will stay with you," he said simply. Those following two weeks were like some hideous nightmare. The Monday after his arrival Mere Beauchamp died. Pierre built a coffin and dug the grave. It was he who read the prayers, and it was he who comforted the weeping Denise. And ten days later, when Pere Beauchamp breathed his last, Pierre went through it all again. It was red dusk when Pierre and Denise came back from the second grave beneath the tamaracks. Cold, gray clouds hung���������the sky; the wind whistled sharply. There was a biting chill in the air that seemed to herald the approach of gray, bleak winter. "It is over now," said Pierre gently. "You must go away." "Yes, I must go away," she repeated listlessly.. "I will take you to Montreal���������to him," said he. ., "No, no, Pierre!" she cried, with a Tuaden^eh������m^cer^"Not*that!"- ; He looked at her In puzzled helplessness. "Where then?" he asked. She caughtrhis arm. He saw a new and wonderful light in her eyes. "Let me stay with you���������always with you," she said. Big Pierre began to tremble. He stood staring at her stupidly. He could not seem to realize the import of her words. "There is a chapel at the, fort," she snid. "Take me there. Wo will be married there tonight, dear, you and I." SEASONABLE MODES.

Whe Marshal MacMahon was president of tlie French republic an incident occurred which illustrates tlie Frenchman's lovo of what Is dramatic.

"I bopef" said the woman who was ordering a pair of slippers made of flowered satin, "that you will tell your workman to wash his hands before he begins to make these up." "Wash his hands!" repeated the clerk. "Why, madam, he never will touch these with his bare hands!" Then tbe clerk explained that all workmen employed in making slippers of light colors worked with white gloves on. "Try to keep them clean!" be continued. "I should say, they did. They try so hard thnt they change their white gloves three times a day." Wbich is not so fantastic as it may seem, for if a shoemaker soils material of this kind the expense to bim of replacing the material, to say nothing of the loss of his time, makes it worth his while to work in gloves and keep them clean at that BOOK ILLUSTRATORS.

The Smelt. It is the opinion of the true gourmet tbat ot all marine pan fish there is none too compare with the smelt (Osmerus mordax). This primary rank is ltsofyn by reason of its delicacy and delicious flavor, and when fried a light brown in very fine breadcrumbs and served with melted butter there is none'that disputes its pre-eminence. Ms delightful flavojy however, as well as Its peculiar odor, ls evanescent. Like the mackerel, it cannot be too fresh. It is .from its odor that the smelt derives not only its familiar but Latin name, an odor so aggressive of sliced cucumbers that if its presence be manifested only to the sense, of ameli people are often deluded Into such supposition. This odor is not marked except In the freshly caught Growing Demand For Their Work If* Hard to Meet. If the number of books published In this country bas increased with almost startling rapidity in recent years, as* the census shows,,to be tho fact, it is because tbe number of readers for entertainment or enlightenment bas grown correspondingly. Tbe aggregate ������������������output in one year of the publishing; houses of 209 principal cities of tho country was valued by tbe eeusus takers at $11S.019,192 for tbe year. And there is no question but that Illustration and decoratl'Ve bindings had considerable to do with' the demand back of this remarkable showing. Nearly everything is illustrated nowadays. Tho exceptions are so exceptional that they arc distinctlyi noticeable on the book tables. Yet one of tho loudest plaints of the makers .of magazines and novels particularly comes: from the difficulty of getting satisfactory drawings. The leaking of pictures for reproduction by printing is quite a different matter from sketching or painting: something which is- to adorn a wall- Mr. C. Howard Walker, who directs; the department of designing Vof tho school connected with the Museum of Fine Arts in .'Boston, said recently: "Illustration has come more and more to demand broad knowledge of decorative design as well as the ability to draw the human figure. Notice how- not only the book covers, which are so- attractive nowadays, but the inside illustrations, are designed to embellish the book as well as illustrate a point. "No young man or woman in these days, however talented, can afford to-- .try to break Into illustration without .'adequate preparation. There should be- three or four years' serioua study of drawing in one of the leading art schools; followed, so I believe,--by at least a year of study of decorative design, Conducted by means of problems and the study of books, photographs and museum collections. The most palpable reason why publishers complain that art students cannot meet their requirements is that they, too, oftentimes, are not broadly educated enough."

Electro Magnet*. The familiar ' horseshoe magnet Is made of highly tempered steel and magnetized so that one end is a* north. pole, the other a south or perhaps'more commonly known as a negative and a positive. Once magnetized it Is always magnetic unless the power is drawn from it by exposure to Intense heat. An electro-magnet, however, can bo made from any scrap of soft iron, from a piece of ordinary telegraph wire to a gigantic iron shaft. When1 a current of electricity passes through an Insulated wire colled about a soft iron object e,uch as a nail, a bolt or a rod, that object becomes ft raagnot as long as a current of electricity Is passing through tho colls of wire or helix. A coll of wire In tho form of a spiral spring has a stronger field thnn a straight wlro carrying the enmo"current, for each turn or convolution ndtls its magnetic field to that of tho other turus, and by having the center of tho coil of iron, which is a magnetic body, tho strength of the magnetism Is greatly Increased. ���������Joseph II.

Whateve/ your calling in lift* may be, whatevtf misfortune** or hardships may come id you. make up your mind resolutely tbat come what iiiay, you will set tin* ,most possible real enjoyment out of ev- ocy day; that yon w\ll increase yout capacity for enjoying life by trying ������������������? And the sunny side of every expurlene\ of tbe day. Hesblutely determine tha*' you will see the himiorow*. side ol things. No matter bow hard or ut> 3'ieldlng your environment may seem to be, there Is a sunny side if you can ouly seedt The nilrtb provoking faculty, even under trylug circumstances, Is worth more to a young man or woman starting out In life than a fortune without It Make up your mind that you will be an optimist; that there shall be nothing of tbe pessimist about you; that you will carry your own sunshine wherever you go. There is longevity in the sunny soul that eases our jolts and makes our sides shake* with laughter. There is a wonderful medicinal effect in good cheer. Good "news and glad tidings have a magic effect even upon Invalids. We often see a whole store or factory or home transformed by one .sunny stsul. On the other band, we have seen them blighted' und made dark by a gloomy, morose, fault finding person. Al-raj-e pyttt/js. Life .consists in a series of change/1! ������ttf tissue, and the human economy is simply, so far as its material part Is concerned, a machine and primarily de* ,pends on food as the most important jfaetorIn keeping it in working order. When it is said that we commence io lie as soon as *w.e are born, it of course means that certain parts of the body Immediately begin to perish; tbelr existence Is ephemeral; they come' and go, are replenished and decay. They lire tlie dying parts of that -system of life w.hlcb may last a little while, but which must eventually yield to the Inexorable law of .nature.

If she had suspected the truth I had turned the tables ou her, and now she ���������was guessing. A quick change came into her face, aud for a moment it gave me confidence. "Is she pretty?" she asked very seriously as she dropped the flower and looked down, crushing it beneath her foot. "She is very beautiful.

Her lips were trembling as she gave me that sweet assurance, dearer to me ���������far dearer���������than all else I remember of that golden time, and tears were coursing down her cheeks. For myself I was in a worse plight of emotion. I dare say she remembered also the look of my face in that moment. "Do not speak of it again," sbe said as we walked away together on the shorn sod of the orchard meadow, now sown with apple blossoms, "until we are older, and if you never speak again I shall know you���������you do not love me any longer."

I traveled in new roads that vacation time, rolitics and religion as well as love began to interest nie. Slavery was looming into the proportion of a great issue, and the stories of cruelty and outrage on the plantations of the south stirred my young blood and made it ready for the letting of battle in God's time. The speeches in the senate were read aloud in our sitting room after suppe* ��������� the day the Tribune came, and all lent a tongue to their discussion. Jed Feary was with us one evening, I remember, when our talk turned into long ways, the end of which I have never found to this day. Elizabeth had been reading of a slave who, according to the paper, had been whipped to death. "If God knows 'at such things are bein' done, why don't he stop 'em?" David asked. "Can't very well," said Jed Feary. "Can if he's omnipotent," said David. "That's a bad word, a dangerous one," said the old poet, dropping his dialect as he spoke. "It makes God responsible for evil as well as,good. The JEQrd carries us beyond our depth. It's too big for our boots. I'd ruthei'ThuTF he can do what's do-able an': know what's knowable. In the beginning he gave laws to the world, an' these laws are unchangeable, or they are not wise and perfect. If God wero to change them he would thereby acknowledge their imperfection. By this law men and races suffer as they struggle upward. But if the law Is unchangeable can it be changed for a better cause even than the relief of a whipped slave? In good time the law shall punish and relieve. The groans of thorn that stiff or. shall hasten it, but there shall bo no change in the law. Thero can be no change in the law." "Leetle hard t' toll jest how powerful God is," said Undo Eh. "Good ileal like tryln' t' weigh Lake Champlain with a quart pall an' a pair 0' steelyards." "If God's laws are iinehangonblo what Is tho use of praying?" I asked, "Ho can glvo us the Ktrengl.li to bear, tlio will to oboy him an' light to guide us," said tho poet.

THE FARMERS' COLLEGE TWO-FOLD OBJECT OF THE INSTITUTION AT GUELPH, ONTARIO. Train** Young Men In Science and Art of Improved Husbandry, and Conducts Experiments and Publishes Results���������Sketch of the Work of the Different Departments ��������� Grows Steadily In Favor of the People. The college was established in 1874. Its objects were twofold; First, to train young men in the science and art of improved husbandry; and sec- er wnen one sees ic. (3) Dairying.���������The making of "better butter and better cheese and the breeding and feeding of better dairy animais. The average cow in Ontario gives less than 3,000 pounds of milk per year. The college, by careful selection and proper feeding, has bulit up a grade herd which, in 1904, contained sixteen cows which gave more than 6,000 pounds each. (4) Horticulture.���������Here they are somewhat handicapped by severe climatic conditions. Being 900 feet above Lake Ontario, the college cannot grow j the more delicate fruits. Students are j given Instruction in the growing of all kinds of fruit, vegetables, and flowers, I and experiments are conducted with i the small fruits and with cover crops : for the orchard. ! (5) Bacteriology.���������Nitrogen is one of the principal needs of a plant. It is 'ond, to conduct experiments and publish the results. In 1S75, the President ; worth, commercially, about 20 cents a said in his first report: "It is evident ! pound. The air is SO per cent, nitrogen, LIFE IN SELKIRK DIOCESE.

And amongst the various fornjs of raw material, none are so valuable as those included under the head of Agricultural Produce. and yet plants cannot use it in the form in which it appears in the atmosphere. Certain bacteria, if introduced into the soil, will work on the roots of clover and other leguminous plants, take the nitrogen from the atmosphere, and convert it into plant food.

But though plainly seen, it is not so easily accomplished. Precedent, prejudice, and general conservatism stand in the way. Throughout the Province there is a powerful minority of intelligent, enterprising, and ; a crop of clover is $10 per acre in one year, and the-farmer has the clover Dawson City, Forty-mile, White Pass, Windy Arm and other places. Pictures were shown of Mr. Cody, Bishop Stringer's asst-ttant at White Horse, and his bride of aitc months ago, also a bride and groom on their honeymoon trip by sledge of 1,200 miles, groups of Indians, miners at work, views of ''Bullion City," consisting of one store, , a road- house and a tent or shack or two, and "Conrad City," scarcely so large, and the pretty house of the Commissioner at Dawson. Archdeacon Canhanrs work at Selkirk (an appropriate name, "selig kirk, holy church"), and the "palace" and "cathedral" of the venerable Bishop Bompas, "the apostle of the north," whom Bishop Stringer has been appointed to succeed, were described. Speaking of mining, the lecturer said that,the day of the individual miner -w-tth-piGk-and~shovel_along_the_Kloh^ dike creeks is about done, the big companies now getting in and doing most of tlie work. A fine report of the work of the Blackfoot Home, near Calgary, sent by the Principal, "Mr. H. W. Glbbon-Stock- en, was read by Mrs. Emily Cummings, editor of The Leaflet, Discovered Graphite. A valuable deposit of graphite has been discovered at French Vale, Cape Breton, by Neil D. Campbell. At a depth of twenty-five feet he found a 13-foot seam. Samples were analyzed and were found to contain 70 per cent, of graphite, an unusually high percentage. The location of the deposit Js ideal. The I. C. R. line passes within four miles of the property, while at a distance of six miles a splendid natural harbor on tho Bras d'or Lakes Is found, The greatest deposit of graphite is found on the Island of Ceylon. Tho Ceylon product finds ready sale in New York at $120 a 'ton. A number of minor deposits aro found In America, but both in quality and quantity are Inferior to the Ceylon article.

President Ontario Agricultural College, Guelph. steadily In favor with the people, until now farmers themselves visit, the college in June and December to the number of nearly -10,000; and .last year there were in attendance at the various college classes 1,004 students. More than 1,200 teachers visited the college and examined the workings of the different departments during the past two years. In the" beginning students were paid to attend the institution, and there was practically no revenue from the college or farm. In 1905, thero was turned into the Provincial Treasury as revenue from tho college and farm $(11,508,20, Tho work of tho different departments is as follows: (1) Field Agrlcnlturc���������Teachlng of students and experimenting with Hold crops ls tho work of this department. In Mr. Zavltz's report of last yoar tho following paragraph appears under tho head of ''Barley": "The results show that tho Mandschouri gavo decidedly crop, tops, and leaves to the good. This, if practised on every farm, would mean millions each year to this province. (6) Chemistry.���������It was said a few years ago that sugar beets could not be grown profitably In this province. The college Department of Chemistry conducted experiments in the different parts of Ontario and analysed the beets at different stages of growth. It is now known that we can grov/ as good beets as in any part of the world, and men are putting their money into the building of sugar beet factories. Over 22,- 000,000 pounds of sugar were made in Western Ontario last year. Chemistry did it The Chemistry Department last year analysed flour made from four different grades of wheat grown in the North-: west. There was a difference of many cents per bushel in the market value of these wheats, arid yet, after analy- ���������sing-the-flour-and-ihawing_bi:ead_made_ from each of the different Jots, it was found that the fourth grade made bread just as good, just as palatable, just as much bread per bushel of flour, and just as nutritious as the higher grade, but it was not so bright In color. The result of this analysis will enable poor people, or people in moderate circumstances, to get tho best bread for their families at very much less than they have been paying, (7) Physics.-���������In this department are taught the principles of soil cultivation and soil drainage. All farm crops take their food from the soil In a watery solution. When the land dries up, no more food can be taken; henco the necessity for a knowledge of how to conserve soil moisture. This is one of tho most important questions that a farmor has to deal with, and experiments aro being conducted in tho Department of Physics all the tlmo along these linos. (S) Botany,���������In this department the subject of weeds and how to destroy them, tho question of fungous growth, and when and how to spray to exterminate them, thio importance of growing grasses and clovors, and such things aro taken up and discussed, (9) Entomology.���������Again, millions ot dollars, are lost, ovory yoar hy insoofc thoVrentes v old nor n?re of So four *>prod>tlon.

GARLAND FOSTER. W. GARLAND FOSTER. Editor Review,1 Portage la Prairie. Journalism is unique among all tbe professions for the rapidity with which reputations are made, and substantial recognition bestowed on tbe brilliant. It is the profession in which natural aptitudes count for as much, and more, as training. In law, or medicine, or divinity���������or indeed, any other business or profession- years of application and study " are necessary to, fit any man for its exercise. And, after an arts course at a university, and a three or four years' additional course at a medical college, a law school, or a theological seminary, it often takes many other weary years of waiting before ability is recognized, a reputation firmly established, and i the material rewards ~accruin^~T;herefrpm~^ITtTre^ the many, this costly period of preparation is, the precursor of a very "moderate income. The same ability devoted to other directions would often prove a better financial investment. Success in newspaper work, on'the other hand, depends more on a native aptitude and insight than on training ���������though, of course, training is necessary to success in this, as In all other successful activities. But no amount of training can supersede aptitude. Newspaper success depends on brains, ability and brilliancy. These given, the training is not unnecessary, but .unconscious. An ounce of tactful common sense Is,worth as much to the young beginner as a ton of "Thou shalts" and "Thou shalt nots." Tact and common sense won't do much to help a divinity student to grind up exercises, or a law student to absorb jurisprudence, or a medical student to pass In anatomy���������that must be a- chleved by dogged . "plugging" and hard work-���������but In the world of newspapers It ls the supreme equipment, and the "cub" reporter may have, while the chief lacks it. If the "cub" reporter has those qualities, with a "nose for news", a good vocabulary, some touch of Imagination ,and a pleasing address and presence, ho has a flrst rate equipment for starting Into journalism, and having only the most essential of those, It Is likely that in good time all those other things shall be added unto him. If a newcomer possess this natural equipment, tho nowspnpor beckons lilm, nnd his promotion will ho sure. In a fow wooUs or months he will bo tackling Important assignments, he bearing heavy responsibilities, tho efficient discharge ofi which will only on- sure hlra harder work, but Incroased reward. Trained lutolllgonco is tho outstanding requirement of tho newspaper mnn, und the lutolllgonco given tho training comes of Itsolf, Examples of tho rnpldlty with which a youth with tho necessary aptitudes and qualifications will forgo to tho front of tho nowjmpor prnfos- ulon will readily occur to ovoryone with any knowledge of or experience therein. Cases hnvo boon known In which a young follow, within flvo years of the tlmo he sot his foot on the lowest rung ot the laddor, has climbed clenr to the top, nnd nttalned tho high position and henvy responsibility of n mminglng editorship on a big city paper, Such rapid advance- rnr-nt '������ "f onurpo rnre nnd nre per haps not to be found In Western Canada. But, there are nevertheless instances of phenomenally rapid promotions due to conspicuous talents, and one of these Is undoubtedly that of Mr. William Garland Foster, until recently the managing editor of the Winnipeg Telegram, and now the editor of the Portage la Prairie News. Mr. Foster had no hereditary predilections towards newspaper life or work. His boyhood career differed no whit from that of thbusands of other young Canadiaus. He was born on a farm at Bell's corners, and in his early years went with other country lads of the district to the rural schools, of Carleton county, and later to the Ottawa collegiate institute. Though both his parents were Canadian born, they came of North of Ireland stock, and from them Mr. Foster inherited the business hard- headedness and shrewdness, and a'"i the quick resourcefulness and savms- sense of humor characteristic of the Ulster Irish. On leaving school Mr. Foster entered the lumber business in Ottawa, and stayed therein for two years, until. 1896. But lumbering was not his sphere. In that year he decided to come west, and spent until December, 1897, at Portage la Prairie, the town in which he is now managing editor. He then returned east, and receiving an offer to join the staff of the Ottawa Free Press as a reporter, he accepted, it, and at once found himself in an. environment to his entire liking. He had orientated himself, and found a vocation in which his natural aptitudes would receive room for freest play and expansion. After three years' work on the Free Press, he again came west, this time to accept a position on the Winnipeg Telegram, and oft this paper he made a brilliant record, filling in succession almost eyery position from fire and police reporter up to'that of managing editor. He was by turns financial reporter, dramatic critic, special feature writer, telegraph and city editor, editorial writer and edit- er, Mr. Foster has a natural inclination for politics. It has sometimes been said that he is a Conservative by religion���������at any rate his belief in the principles and the policy, of the Conservative party is ��������� as firm and deep-seated as any belief can possibly be. When such devotion to a cause or party is coupled, as in Mr.' Foster's case, with untiring ndusrry and much more than average ability, it is small surprise that speedy recognition came from the heads of the par- ,ty��������� thaM)rofited_by_his_s^j^ijiesl__Of, all the journalists' , whose pens and brains, are supporting the present local government of ; Manitoba, it is very questionable if there is������one with such claims to party gratitude as Mr. Foster can advance, were he one of that numerous class that give ser- yice in direct proportion to benefits received. But Mr. Foster is neither a time, nor a place-server, and the acknowledged service to the party he supports has been the result of personal conviction. During his stay in Winnipeg Mr. Foster was one of the moving spirits of the Young Men's Conservative Club, in which institution he has held in succession almost, every office in its gift. He has proved himself, too, an organizer of more than average abill- ity, his Influence In enlisting the young men to the support of the Conservative party having a marked and acknowledged effect In the success of the present provincial government in the three Winnipeg constituencies. Personally, Mr. Foster is the Incar- nation of diffidence and modesty, He has none of the arts of the denv agoguo. Quiet efficiency and effectiveness are the keynotes of his character. He is as popular as he is unassuming, and has troops of friends, both without and within the circle of his political affiliations. On his leaving Winnipeg at the beginning of the present yoar, ho received many testimonials of respect and esteem from his foi low-workers on the Telegram and the various political Institutions with which ho was connected. H'ls last fortnight In tho city was a nightly repetition of complimentary banquets and proHenmtloiiH, Tho boglnnlng of 1900 saw Mr. Foster asHiuno tho editorship of tho Ro- vlow, tho oldest established Portage la Pralrlo nowspnpor, and his return to Iho town In whlcli Jio first located In tho west, The Review is ono of (ho oldost nowspapors In Mnnitoha, though for tho past fow yonrs it hns been known ns tho News. Tho trnnsfor of Mr, Foster to tho papor will mark a now ora In Its history, bolng hut ono of tho signs that the wholo Institution has undorgono a complete ro-orgnnlzation. It is tho intention of tho now management to convert the Review, which Is now n soml-wookly, into a dally, and ns soon as the machinery now on ordor Is lnstnllod, tho chango will bo made.

A Mysterious Message Which Comes from the Unknown to Cape Clear Every "Vfidnight. Mr. Marconi tells a weird story in connection with his system of wireless telegraphy. There is'a station off Capo Clear, the utmost point of land to the westward of the British Isles. Here are received final messages dis- patchd by ships outward bound, and the first hail of vessels that have crossed the Atlantic steering east. To this lonely station there conies shortly after tho stroke of midnight a mysterious message, untranslatable, incomprehensible. But always at a certain point, varying night by night, there is delivered one word that is ovor the same. It is recognizable only by its unvarying sigh. It belongs to no language known to this planet. For two years tho mysterious message has iadver missed arriving invariably between midnight and the stroke of one in tho morning. Mr. Marconi's explanation of the phenomenon is as striking as is the incident itself. He believes it is Mars endeavoring to communicate with her sister planet. Why the message should exclusively reach this particular spot on earth, 'what Mars wants to say, and wherefore the unrequited patience of nightly repeating the" communication through two years, are matters to be guessed at. That the mysterious message arrives at the times and,in the manner, indicated are facts for which Mr. Marconi vouches. IfYou Your Health I!

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED. by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There ls only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed inflammation can be taken out and this hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, arid unless the ���������inflammatlon.-can_foe taken out: and thjs_ tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed" forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
