On his return from Mayfulr ho found hlfl sitting-room on t.ht* first floor tenanted by his friend Horace Bnggtiloy, who was lounging In ono Chair, reel lug his foot on another, and propitiating solitude with a brlur. Hallo, Bagguley, yon back? Yps, safe and sound; not oven a touch of African fever to boast of by way of a rcmlnlccotico. Well, I'm precious glad to have you bach. It would have heor. a long six months without you, If wo had not been as busy as bee3 at the Pioneer. 1 recognized your fist In a copy I picked up at Southampton. I tell you what, any boy���you Bell tho Pioneer. People have got to fancy tho paper knows a thing or two; and knowledge Is property Just now In tho Press world. I heard people talking about It In the train. Horace Bagguley was a tall dark man, with piercing black eyes, and an aquiline nose. He had just returned from a six months' shooting tour in the Veldt. Like Murgatroyd he was a barrister by profession, but he had been In the House nearly ten years, representing the Cheshire constituency in which his estates lay. Don't you feel/incllnec, to kick sometimes at hiding your light under a bushel, old chap���for the Pioneer ls a bushel to you���especially as the ducats are of no consequeuco In your case'.' It is all experience, replied Murgatroyd. Ho added: Experience Is a power ot a kind as well as knowledge. Well, yes, It's experience ot a sort; but one is apt to get shoppy. That editorial 'wo' is so impregnable in the office, and so Insignificant elsewhere, that the office-coat gets magnified into a toga. Really you are getting quite didactic. When did this vein of heavy humor seize you, most potent Horace7 Oil, one has time to think on board ship, especially if you don't care about cither poker or flirtation. So I took the 1 rouble to think about you a bit On the principle that the proper Study of mankind is man, eh? There you are shoppy again. I know all those dlctlonary-of-qiiotatlon .things by heart, simply from the way they are sneaked into every article to turn journalism into���what it never (���an bo or ought to be���literature. Bosh! Very well; you are running to seed. All the bigger crop by and by. Weeds. Vou are complimentary. What are you going to do tonight? Docs the Pioneer claim you, or is it to be a little dinner at Delmonico's and a theatre afterwards? 1 don't know a bit what's on. 1 have some fish o[ my own to fry tonight, and I am going ta give you Nearly Impossible to Heal Skin. Badly Hurt. Sore, Red and Inflamed, Could Not Sleep, Cuticura Soap and Ointment Healed. ,����� Bowramn River, Manitoba.��� "When I was thirteen years of a��n I got my shin badly hurt ami when boalod tho skin was attached tothebono. Tho least bruise would injur.. It and It was nearly Impossible t�� beat. Tho sore wuuld bo very red and Inflamed round tho odgus juhI had u burning sensation. When oxtrasoro I could not sleep al night on account of tho pain. I always wore a col ton bandage on It from tho ankle, to Uio knee. Kor a number of years I used sticking plasters, tben got a salvo. 1 saw Iho advertisement offering a freo sam- j.le, of Cuticura Soap and Ointment and sent for a sample and purchased somo moro and In elx days I ho soro wns healed completely.'' (Sinned; James Edwards, Juno SI, 11)12. FOR PIMPLES AND BLACKHEADS Treatment: Gently smear the affected pails with Cuticura Ointment, on the end of iho linger, but do not rub. Wash off tho Cuticura Ointment in five rnlnutos with Cuticura Soap and hot water and continue foathJng for some minutes. This treatment is best on rising and retiring. At other times use Onticura Soap freely for tho toilet and bath, to assist in preventing inflammation, irritation and clogging of the pores. Sold throughout tho world.

Quite dramatic Vou are my executor, it lias not come I that yet, I hope. Bagguley spoke lightly but wag watching his frl *nd keenly all the same, under his dark brows. He re- oognlteed serious Intention in the tones of Murgatroyd'a voice. 1 want you to look in here after tho play���1 advise Daly. If I am not buck scud a nolo you will find on this table to Inspector Murphy, Scotland Yard, and see thnt lie nttends to it at once. Alive or dead? Surely this Ib not within the four corners-of your duty towards yonr neighbor���the chief ot the Pioneer? No; for the first time in my life 1 am going to do a woman's commission. Where does it take you? Soho way. You hardly look tho part. Oh, 1 shall dress for it; I have lhe costunio here. It is not. the first time 1 have been into an opium den or a thieves' kitchen. Only this time I am in pursuit of stolen goods, and that is not always quite safe. Why not smd Murphy in the first instance? Because I want the thief quite as much as the property. I should have thought the police did too? There is tills difference���I want him to come willingly; they prefer the persuasion to a pair of bracelets. May I come with you? I am afraid not. The errand I'm on requires experience of n kind which you do not get even In South Africa. x Shall I wait while you dress? If you like. In twenty minutes tlie door of the sitting-room < pened, and an old man came ��� in with shaggy cye-brov,s, straggling beard aud whiskers, and a coat patched and stained. Bagguley st".red speechless with amazement; then he laughed. By jove, it's a good thing I knew whom to expest. Why even a dun wouldn't know -.ou in that get-up. A wrinkled smile distorted the features of the singularly old man. Yes, I think it will do���for an opium den. Now I must be off. Murgatroyd threw up the window and whistled twice. After a few minutes a growler drew up at the door. Better stay here till I'm gone. After summoning the cab, Murgatroyd had scribbled a few lines on a sheet of paper. He now placed this in an envelope, directed it and threw it into the middle of the table. That's the note to tell them to look for me. All right, IT. attend to It, if needs be, which I don't expect; it will be a wily man who gets the better of you. Have you a knuckle-duster with you? Murgatroyd placed his hand, which was wrinkled like his face, In the deep outside pocket of his coat, and drew out a six-chambered revolver, the daintiest little weapon, with a mother-of-pearl handle, ever fashioned by gun-smith'j art. "f is a pretty toy, would make a hole in a man further than I'm likely to hit him. The friends t,'.iook hands. They were real friends and understood one another. Then Murgatroyd went down stairs, gave a direction to the cabman���and anonymous���there is danger there if not here, and I don't know which is the worse of the two. For Bagguley had been bitten once ���badly. Murgatroyd's errant", was the result of a mental volte face. Ho had started for Scotland Yard when he left t'urzon Street, but a new thought had struck him. The descrli.tion, brief as it was, Maud Hanley had given titled to a nicety a character the journalist had coi . across on more than oik* occasion. Jemmy .Ionian, as his mates called him���It. was moro than probable far remote from his real name���was one of the best known characters in lhat manufactory of strange types���Soho. That he was an expert thief, Ihe po- lico were well aware; and Murgatroyd had met him In the Courts more than once; but Jemmy had tho alertness of an eel, and had invariably escaped conviction. He was addi'led to opium In a modified blend with shag���it was his one weakness; and when Murgatroyd had occasion to do an opium den in nursuit of copy, Jemmy had been recommended as a guide, and a safe pioneer���when on hij honor; a qualification unsuspected by his casual acquaintances, but upon which he pridtd himself as upon a pearl of great price. Jimmy had the misfortune to have very bushy brows and the characteristics Maud Hanley had described. Although no one would have suspected it amid the shades of Soho, Jemmy could walk the parks dressed In his best with the appearance of a prosperous City man���quite the toff, as he himself expressed it. Murgatroyd wanted Jemmy. lie thought he knew vl.ere he could find him as the evening closed in. The den was only safe to the pals; but the revolver In his pocket equalised mat- Iters in case of a skirmish. Dismissing his growler at the corner Ir.f a street, Murgatroyd plunged into a side alley, which landed 1 lm In a court. He hesitated a m ent or two, and then went up to a door which had a partially defaced 8 upon it. He knocked twice, paused while one might count fifty, und then knockej again, a loud single knock. There was a shuffling footstep, and un old man peered out. Apparently satlslkl with tho appearance of his visitor, the janitor threw the door back, Murgatroyd gave him an order ! l the words and tone which became his character of a German Jew, and then went on down the passage, opened the end door and walked In. It wns necessary that no susp'cioiis as to his familiarity with the place should be I raised In lhe mind of the doorkeeper. I The room ' d half a dozen men in it, all smoking, although tin night i was yol young, The fumes of Iho | opium hung in a dense mass In midair. A florin;* wis Jet, banging from the low celling, failed to light the apartment, which was long enough to accommodate twenty or thirty loungers. At first Murgatroyd could not see clearly enough to distinguish faces; hut by the time the janitor had brought him a. pipe tilled with the fragrant drug iie had aatlufled himself that the man lie Bought wns not there, Murgatroyd BtOBbched himself on nn ottoman, pretending to sitolto while he watted, lie had determined to remain an hour, and If by that time .Ionian had not arrived at hla favorite linunt, he would revert to his original plan and cull lu the police; bul he fell perfectly certain that In that case Miss Hanley would never recover her watch. Luck or his own good Judgment favored hlni. At thi end of half an hour the door opened again nnd two men entered���one wus Jemmy Jordan . Murgatroyd lingered his revolver. It was itching for use; but he did not want to use It, as thnt would mean failure. Jemmy took up a position near to Murgatroyd; of course quite unsuspicious of the latter's identity. The man who came in with him was on the other side. (To bf Contluu-C) SPRlNGTMrfRlflES INTHE BLOOD A Tonic Medicine is a Necessity at Thit Season. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People are an all year round tonic, blood-builder and nerve-restorer. But they are especially valuable in the spring when the system is loaded with impurities as a result of the indoor life of the winter months. There is no other season when the flood ls so much in need of purifying and enriching, and every dose of these pills helps to make new, rich, red blood. In the spring one feels weak and tired���Dr. Williams' Pink Pills give strength. In the spring the appetite is often poor���Dr. Williams' Pink Pills develop the appetite, tone the stomach and aid weak digestion. It is in the spring that poisons in the blood find an outlet in disfiguring pimples, eruptions and boils ��� Dr. Williams' Pink Pills speedily clear the skin because they go to the root of the trouble in the blood. In He spring anaemia, rheumatism, Indigestion, neuralgia, erysipelas and many other troubles are most persistent because of poor, weak blood, and it is at this time when all nature lakes on new life that the blood most seriously needs attention. Some people dose themselves with purgatives at this season, but these only further weaken themselves. A pt.realive merely gallops through the system, emptying tbe bowels, but it does not cure anything. On the other hand Dr. Williams' Pink Pills actually make new blood which reaches every nerve and organ in the body, bringing new strength, rew health and vigor to weak, easily tired men, women and children.

The mere setting apart of reserves, though nn Important step, Is only a preliminary one. Although, unfortunately, In somo cases it has not been realized that anything further ls necessary, this mistake has not been made In the federal administration. Tho reserves have been organized by appointing nn Inspector In charge for each of the Western provinces. The inspectors selected are men who have had a thoroughly technical training In forestry anil who have shown good administrative ability. In each of the Inspection districts tho reserves nreiiB are laid out In milts or forests each under chnrgo ot it technically trained mnn or a man experienced In timber administration. Twelve such divisions have already been established, and others are being organized and manned with forest rangers as the development of the reserves and the lire danger may render net issary, Those divisions do not include patrol oul Bide ot forest reserves on the large area of forest not Included therein. In Bitch areas there are in addition twelve patrol divisions each under charge of a chief fire ranger. On each of the forests, houses have been erected for the forest rangers bo that they may be close to their work and give It careful supervision. At different points throughout the forest, huts have been erected as headquarters for summer patrols and in some of the more inaccessible districts. 470 miles'ot trails and roads have been constructed so as to make the reserves more accessible. 10 bridges have been constructed, and 100 miles of telephone have been put ln>operation. A much enlarged programme of such Improvement work has been laid out for the coming year. A conference of the Inspectors was recently held at Ottawa to plan the work for the comlrg season and the construction work on the reserves will be pushed as rapidly as possll> so as to have the reserves made Immune from Are, as they are in Europe, in the shortest possible time. A Puzzle What puzzles me, said Uncle Snooks as he look .1 up from a book he was consulting, is this: It a man ls standing on the side of a hill or mountain how Is ho .to settle in his mind whether he ls on an acclivity or declivity? According to my dictionary here tlie former is a slope up and the latter a slope down. I've ���never yet seen a slope up that didn't slope down. CHILDREN U ThThOME When there are children In the home it requires constant attention to keep them freo from the many childhood ailments which come so quickly���some of them proving fatal while others leave the little one cross, restless and ' eak. To keep little ones well Baby's Own Tablets must be kept In the house. These Tablets regulate the stomach and bowels, break up colds and fevers; expel worms and make teething easy. The Tablets arc sold by medicine dealers L.- by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brock- ville, Ont. He Understood The man and his wife in the motor car came face to face with the man on a heavily-laden wagon in a narrow lane. Quite as a matter of course the husband made a move to back out and allow the wagon to pass. But his wife objected. Let him back out she said coldly. We were here first. He must have seen us coming. Her husband pointed out that a sharp curve in the road rendered this Impossible. I don't care reiterated tlie dame in the car. I don't Intend to move. I'd rather remain here all day. But���, the husband began feebly. Uie over, man, said the carter, and the tones of his voice expressed a great sympathy. Don't argy any more. I'll back out. I've got one like her at 'ome! Ask for Mlnard's and take no other No Chance to Escape I couldn't get out of marrying her, Heupeck explained When she "to- posed she said: Will you marry me? Have you any objection? You see, no matter whether I said yes or no, she had me. Why didn't you just keep silent, then? inquired his friend. That's what I did, and she said: Silence gives consent, and that entfed it.

Flower Day It Is just tw .ty-four years slnco an employ of the C.P.R, raised a few varieties of dower seeds In his own garden and distributed them among his friends In the company with the idea ot beautifying to somo extent tho somewhat barren aspect of the stations on lhe railroad round houses and yar! offices on the com* pany's property. It was a small be- Binning Im today the C.P.R. Is celebrating its semi-annual flower day and the little seed planted in the earlier day lias crown to such an extent that it requires a flora', department to handle the work and instead of a lew packages ot seeds handed out to t limited number of employee no less trail 150,000 packets of various varieties have been distributed to station agents, sectlo*. foremen, those in charge of round houses, yard olllces and all employes living on company's property, showing an Inclination towards the cultivation of dowers. In the fall a million of bulbs were given out and lhe beno.'t of these ia now being fell, as from the Atlantic to the Pacific and even on Vancouver Island, the traveller will nee the delightful results from the full planting of theso luxurious flowers. Even in tho midst of the prairies where men are permanently encamped working on the Irrigation ditches at forty different points have seeds been sent for cultivation, which ls another demonstration of the effect the tending of fit vers lias on the human mind and body. These men tako a great delight In caring for the plants as they gradually grow r.!ld enjoy their fragrance as much nj "the man nearer home. Tha influences and encouragement of flower growing on the C.P.K. during the last twenty-four years has materially assisted in the inauguration of floral societies in almost every town along the lines of the syBtem, and an examination will show that actively connect I with these hundreds of societies ar.* employes of the C.P.R. whose first lesson in flower culture and the love of the beautiful were learned in the service of the company under the stimulating Influences of the Floral depart- : ent. Station improvements have led to town Improvements and often the C.P.R. is asked to co-operate with some of these institutions for the beautifying ot open Bpaces, and in many Instances the station ls a sort of bureau for flower Information, while the floral department at Montreal ls looked upon as the headquarters of flower Information for the whole of the C.P.R. system from the Atlantic to the Padflc. In every division special prizes are awarded for the best displays and many of the employes have become so Interested in the work as to try their results against the best in the country by exhibition at the big exhibit Ions. In many Instances they have been very successful and have carried away the premie, prizes Many agents have wonderful vegetable gardens in the west for the climate is such that anything can be grown.

MOTHERHOOD SUCfiESTIONS Advice to Expectant Mothers The experience of Motherhood Is a try. ing one to most women and marks distinctly an epoch in their lives. Not one woman in a hundred is prepared or understands how to properly care for herself. Of course nearly every woman nowadays has medical treatment at such times, but many approach the experience with an organism unfitted for the trial of strength, and when it is over her system has received a shock from which it is hard to recover. Following right upon this comes the nervous strain of caring for the child, and a distinct change in the mother results. There is nothing more charming than a happy and healthy mother of children, and indeed child-birth under the right conditions need be no hazard to health or beauty. The unexplainable thing is that, with all the evidence of shattered nerves and broken health resulting from an unprepared condition, and with ample time in which to prepare, women will persist in going blindly to the trial. Every woman at this time should rely upon Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, a most valuable tonic and invig- orator of the female organism. In many homes once childless there are now children because of the fact that Lydia E. Pink- ham's Vegetable Compound makes women normal, healthy and strong. If yon want special advice write to Lydia E. Ptnkliam Medicine Co. (confident lal) Lynn, Mass. Yonr letter will be opened, read and answered by a Koman and held In strict confidence.

Parmelee's Vegetable Pills are the very best medicine that can be taken to bring relief. These pills are specially compounded to deal with dyspepsia, and their sterling qualities in this rt-jpect can be vouched for by legions of users. Ma*M��.HHaatf. Exact Location It doesn't always pay a lawyer to be stern with the posing witnesses when cross-examining them. They are often as clever as the attorney and the following anecdote Illustrates how one witness put one over on a bright young lawyer. Sir, said tho luwyer sternly, you need not state your impressions. We want facts. Nov.*, henceforward, answer me categorically. You say you live next door to the defendant? Yes. To the north of Uim? No. To the south? No. To De west, then? No. , Ah, said the lawyer sarcastically, at last we are likely to get down to one real fact. You live to tho east of him, do you? No. How Is that, sir? said the astonish ed attorney You say you live next door to him yet you live neither to tho eRst, west, south nor north. What do you mean by that sir? I thought perhap. you were incom- pcten to form the impression that we live in a flat, said the witness; but I see I must inform you that he lives next door above me. 'Twas Detter 80 They were engaged. Perhaps 1. repented; perhaps he did It only for fun. Said he: My darling Ethel, what would you say if I were to tell you that I cannot marry you. I would cay, my dearest love, that I have a big brother who would make it warm for you, and that I have some of tne sweetest little billets-doux that would make it expensive for you, George dear. But you know I haven't said It. I know you haven't, my pet. So we'd better get married, hadn't we? I think so, my precious. Ponder This���You'll be sorry sol e day that you dldn'; marry. Well, I'd rather not be married and be sorry I wasn't than be married and sorry I was. Fate of the Fare The portly gentleman hailed the passing cab. Cabby, he said, ?t.5C if you drive me to the station in lest than fifteen minutes. In he jumped and away went cabby at a rattling rate. On reaching tins station he was delighted to see that he had still three minutes to spare. As soon as the door was opened the fa're stepped out, panting and mopping his streaming brow. Whatever's the matter? asked cab- by. Matter! Phew! Can't you see that the bottom's dropped out of the cab and I've had to run all the way to th* station. Phew! Then, as he looked about him, his purple face becoming mauve. Cabby, he said, you'vs brought me to the wrong station, and I've lost the train.

CAIRNS & SON Proprietors Phone as Courtenay Letter to the Editor Dear Sir: As you are no doubt well aware this district is the happy hunting grounds for stock company promoters of every description, who offer "gilt edge propositions" that would deceive the "very elect," do you uot think it is about time a note of warning was sounded to some of those who "fall" for any plausablc yarn of "easy money" being made or "twenty per cent guaranteed." Every other day I am approached by some of these financial vampires who preach in a mans chest and if he is not careful they will fan him to sleep with their plausahle hot air and depart with a big load of his financial blood. These stock selling promoters are past masters of the craft. I have watched the process of these enchantments and alurements as they sing them with the voice of a sireue. They have studied the weaknesses of human nature, there is no emotion too sacred for them to play upon, or no passion they will not arouse. Tlie tend of human nature to secure something for nothing is not killed yet. There is a large, in fact tlie largest percentage of humanity, have failed to realize that when any investment pays over ten percent it is questionable, and becomes a speculation. There has been thousands and thousands of dollars thrown away by people who have been hoodwinked into schemes as solid as the waters of the Punt- ledge River. They parted with their money expecting "big returns" but the deferring of their hopes has failed to make their hearts sick or their pocket books unhealthy and they are still taking chances of the wildcat nature in any catchpenny "proposition" that comes along. I am not endtvouring to save the suckers, us Canadians- classified as D. F., from the clutches of the sharper. That is impossible, I am soundiug "a warning" note, to those who have the average in telhgence but are apt to "fall." In nine cases out of ten the "proposition" laid before him looks good. Some promoters cite successful Trust companies as a bait. He tells of the Dominion and Permanent Loan as examples of financial success and investment, failing to show genius in the men behind who made them so, aud the lack of ability in the men behind the Co. he seeks to promote, Match companies selling stock show the returns of the Eddy Co., but fail to show any man in the directorate of the company of the same calibre as Eddy. Stores Company will hold Lipton up as their guide and system but fail to mention that no two Liptons live in the same age, wireless companies without the genius of a Marconi will tell of the dividends of the Marconi Co. Many of the present day companies selling stock to the public, were there the returns they claim in the concern they would not need to peddle their shares around as they do. Many of the promoters of the "propositions" made to us in this district are sailing so close to the fringe of the law that it takes all their ingenuity to escape the penitentary and I will not gamble that they would not land there. Finance. Black Creek The motor lorry for hauling gravel on the Campbell river road passed through Courtenay on Friday last. It marks that progress which is so much to be desired in all departments spending the public money and it is by utilizing every improvement that the whole community benefits. Rumours are current that the advent of a motor lorry will be resented by those who work on the roads; such recalls to mind the introduction of agricultural machinery in England which caused such lawless acts on the part of the agricultural labourers notably stack firing and the destruction of the hated machinery. To-day the use of machinery on the farm is universal and it is bv extending its use to our roads that the Government is going to have full value for money laid out. Such actions let it be repeated, benefits the whole community and if twa miles of road improvements are secured instead of one mile, so much the better. Sandwick Born���To Mr. and Mrs. O. W.

Hint wns not to be determined except un tho wales, for clothes were worn baggy In those days, and the gentleman's apparel wns cut in the height of fnshlon. In company with this young mnn was another, teu years his senior, whom he culled Kill, the hitter addressing the former ns .Johnny. Hill wns n heavy eet innn, plainly dressed nnd unassuming In his demeanor, lie deferred to his slighter companion in some ways and assumed authority orer him In others. For Instance, meeting n chill wind from the mountains he suggested to Johnny Hint he put on his overcoat. Johnny objected on the ground that ui wns already too warm, whereupon Bill ordered hlni in no uncertain tone to do ns lie directed, and tne little fellow obeyed him instantly. During the stagecoach journey thnt followed n stop was mnde for a change ot horses at a station composed of tho relay, a gambling house and a saloon. <t> ��2> u��<J^SCL_ DFAt.T HIM A BLOW ON THE NOSE. The relay wns for Ihe singe line, the gambling house nnd the saloon lor thu people of the surrounding country. "This mounlnin nir has made me chilly." said he who wns culled Bill. "I think I'll go over to that saloon and gel something to wnrm me up." To the surprise of the other passengers, he did iiiit Invite his companion to join iiim, though lie extended nn Invitation to cmli und nil of Ihem. One innn accepted, the others declined! and the two walked to tlie saloon. There wns probably uot a worse crowd to lie found In Ihe wild west in those days than wns congregated 111 that saloon. Five men were loitering about, each mnn wearing a sombrero, most ol them a stubble benrd nbout nu eighth ol nn Inch long, a woolen shirt anrl twn revolvers strapped to lhe belt. Their faces were red from frequent potations, nnd they were then bunging about lhe place "Inylng" for some one to liny Ihem a drink. Bill entered wltb the man he hnd invited to join him. The two stepped un to JJie bar nnd culled tor whisky. They were niiout to drink It when one of the loungers, coming forwnrd, snid: "See yere. m-nts, whnt kind o' manners do yon i.hi Ihem. drlnkin by yourselves without mi Invite for any other gent present? ' "It's not tin* ustom," Bill responded, "In the com.i; . from which we coma to nsk persons to drink simply because they hnpiien to he on hand." "Well, It's Hi rule yere." . "Is tt enloi ed?" "Ton bet " Ami lhe man slapped the revolver on his right hip with bis hand. ���'I've always heard." continued Bll coolly, "Unit you gentlemen In this country, whatever you do. piny fair. My friend and l are unarmed, and I don't think it would be a straight gams for you lo tali" n drink out of us at the point ot a pistol." 'the loiterers who hnd stood lip to back their spokesman seemed to dillcr as lo this proposition, some of them taking the ground Hint since It was the custom it dldn t matter how it wns enforced others tleohiriiiL' that Ihe Htrnn. ger was ngnt Me stiouio ne allowed to go tor u wen pun. after which, if be would rather tight than set up the drinks, he could begin shooting as soon us he liked. "I couldn't hit a bam door with n gun," snld BUI, "but I wouldn't inluil a light with lists. That wouldn't du cither. There Isn't any of you hero who would be n match for me." The loiterers held u conference, and one ot them, thinking he could tackle the stranger, offered to do so. Bill shook his bend. "It wouldn't be a fair mutch." he suld. "I'm too. Iienv.v for he lidded: "There's a young mnn traveling with me who I Hunk would about do for you. il you don't mind referring the dispute to him I don't mind either." "Trot hlni out." was the reply to this. Bill asked the man be had Invited to drink to go for bis friend, and Johnny soon came into the saloon, [lis appearance ut once excited a guffaw, the object of which stood looking somewhat puzzled. Bill explained the situation to hlni and, turning to tho crowd, suld: ���'He's a better man than he looks, but if any of you gentlemen wants to bet you can knock him out I wouldn't object to going you for a small amount on it." There was another conference, which resulted iu tbe scraping together of $12, all there wus among the westerners, and they nominated a man they called Biff Hunker to stand up against the little fellow and win a similar amount to be put up by Bill. The stage driver wns called in for stakeholder, and a ring was formed on the level ground before the saloon, Johnny took off his coat and vest, retaining his shirt. Had he doffed this also some surprise might have been created nt the muscle lying under the soft white skin of his arm. As it was, Johnuy didn't show for much more than when bis coat was on him. His antagonist stood six feet one In his stockings aud was a powerful man. The only thing against bim was the use of too much liquor, and he could not be expected to last very long against one of equal strength, ftenliz- ing this element of weakness, he went nt Johnnv like n bull, Intending to crush him out at once. Bnt Johnny pirouetted like a dancing master and before his enemy could recover dealt him a smart blow on the nose that drew tirst blood. This first episode caused those who had calculated to win a litt-le money to doubt the ease with which It could be obtained. Johnny didn't seem in a hurry to tackle his enemy, keeping on the defensive. But it soon became apparent to tlie bystanders thnt there wns a cat and a mouse game going on. only the mouse was playing with the cat to the cat's discomfiture. The big man struck out with blows heavy enough to break every bone In his antagonist's body, but the body was never in the place at which lie aimed. Johnny sidestepped nnd ducked and fell hack, his enemy vainly trying to find him with his big fist. The westerner soon lost his wind nnd from that time staggered about like the hulk of a derelict tossed by the waves. "I don't want to hurt him," Johnny replied, still dancing about In a circle. Presently tlie big mnn gathered his forces for a llnnl effort. Johnny dived between his legs, rose and landed his enemy on his back. The fallen man lay quiet, for a few moments, when he wns helped to his feet by one of his friends. But he was breathing bnrd nnd positively declined to renew the encounter, "Gentlemen," snid Hill, "step inside and join me in a tipple, Mr. .Stakeholder, give the gentlemen back their stak . Come In, ull. I've been Interrupted in my refreshment long enough and am very chilly." All Hocked into the saloon except the victor, who remained outside. i "Sny, stranger," called one nf the ! party as he saw Johnny walking away to the couth, "where y' goin'?" Johnny made no reply, and the other followed the crowd into the saloon. "What's the matter with the kid?" he asked of Bill. "Don't he drink?" "Not just now. You see. he's a featherweight boxer on his way to Frisco to a match made with the Sacramento bantam. I'm his trainer. I don't let him drink." So many und so varied were the ejne- nbifluns to this stnrtling announcement thai Iliey could not be separated one from another "Now, gentlemen." continued the speaker, "1 see that the coach is ready fo move on i in runffi oiiiikfu ��.��� ,rwi lor affording me amusement during tbo stop, and if any ot vou would like to l*o to see the match lil be happy to fur Hist) you wllh tree admission tickets. ii'ood morning." The crowd went with hlni to tbe l*UIU'tl, where they found Johnny- the exclusive object of curiosity -sitting on top looking down ou ttiein benignly. "What n kitten!" "I'ln.vfiil like. Isn't he?" "Sny. little one. do you play checkers ou thai coat o' your'n?" These were n lew of the remnrks mnde. bul Johnuy deigned no reply. Bill got Inside, und when nil wus ready tbe conch rolled nwny. one mnn iu the crowd lefi behind calling out: "Sny. Mr. Trainer, much obleeged for not fnkln' yer wtnnln's along!" After Hint the gang of loiterers In the saloon were very chnry In permitting those they tackled to use their own weapons. Insisting 111 every case upon the revolver.

Joseph Turned a Vigorous Enemy Into a Strong Friend. Away back in the early sixties there lived in Cornwall a colored barber named T. H. White, a well-educated man. a keen politician, nnd a chnrne- ter all-around. This wus iu time of negotiations preceding Confederation, und there were imiiiy distinguished men in the town to see the late Hon. John Sandlield Muedniinld. wbo was among the political leaders of those days. Barber White wns the only manipulator of the razor in Cornwall at that time and naturally had the honor of shaving those of tlie publicists who needed his services. He was fairly in his element, and us be was a good talker be acquired plenty of political information, which he retailed to inn local customers to good effect afterwards. For some reason or other, White had developed a great aversion to Hon. Joseph Howe of Nova Scotia, one of the fathers of Confederation, and was -never tired of abusing him, nothing short of murder being too vile to lay to bis charge. One morning a stranger came off tbe early train, and as soon as tlie barber shop was open, betook himself thither for a shave. It was not long before White introduced his favorite topic, and the name of Howe came up. "Politicians is a pretty queer lot, suh," lie said. "Some is good and some is bad, but that Howe is the worst of the bunch. If he goes on be will ruin this country. Oh, dat villain, Joe Howe, he ought to be in the penitentiary." White was so excited that the stranger could not get in a word; what he did say only encouraging the barber to further talk. The operation over, the stranger handed White a dbllar. with the remark: "You're a good barber, and your conversation is very interesting, even if it is somewhat personal. Keep the change." A few minutes later a townsman came in and asked who the late customer was. "I don't know," replied White, "but he is a perfect gentleman." "Why," said the townsman, "that'-i the Hon. Joseph Howe, of Nova Scotia: be has just gone over to see Sand- field." "Can't help that," rejoined White, "I'll stick to what I said," and from that time forward the apostle of Confederation from the Bluenoses had no firmer defender than the black barber from Cornwall. A Flame For a Trumpet. If a vibrating tuning fork be placed in a flame tbe sound is markedly re- enforced. Starling with this fact, nn English scientist has devised a new form of phonograph, In which the flame takes tlie place of the trumpet ordinarily used. The sounds thus re- , enforced nn* easily heard throughout n large room. The explanation of the action of lhe flame Is that the sound ' waves falling upon ll change Its com- bustlon from n continuous to nn Intermittent form, the burning gas being thus thrown into a series of waves that are more powerful than the origi- | mil sound waves, re-enforce them nnd \ thus magnify the sound.���St. I.ouis Ue- public. Most of Europe's Crowned Women Could Earn a Livelihood. If a queen lost her job could she earn a living? if Lor oastles and wealth vanished with her title could she work like you or 1? Would she be cleverer than our Canadian daughters ol riches, who rarely know how to mend a tear, to wash n dish, and who, hy no chance, could cook a meal? It hns long been a matter of common remark thai among the royalty of enrlh not n few possess exceptional talents -talents which would bring them in good, hard coin if they wish- mI to turn them to that end". The kings asd queens are no longer mere naiiii's and puppets, They nre unwilling to sit quietly hy while others manufacture interests and pleasures for them, They want to be masters of some ono trade, some one talent, themselves. How often W" hear of a Canadian girl, whose every wish has been law, (<��� whom no luxury lias been denied, who must go out nnd curn n living when her father's wealth has been wiped out! And how seldom can she do it i But if Queen Elisabeth of Belgium was dethroned to-morrow and left absolutely penniless she would have a profession at which she could ens- ily support herself and ber children. The first thing she would do would b fo go to a hospital in Belgium and become a staff physician, or, if Unit place were not open to her, take a position as a nurse until she could afford to open an office as a physician. For she has had a thorough medical training, and only a few years before her marriage to King Albert she took her degree as doctor of medicine at the University of Leipzig. She is tho daughter of Duke Charles Theodore of Bavaria, a renowned occulist, and before her mnr- riuge assisted him in his work and had active practice and nursing in a hospital at Kreuth. She still continues her interest in the work nnd lias recently built the Albert-Elizabeth dispensary, where s-lie conducts classes for the young nurses and illustrates her talk by practical application of bandages. Many a charitable patient has come from this hospital happy, in the acquaintance of the queen and proudly displaying a bandaged arm with the gratified words: "Her majesty herself dressed my arm. No wonder it is healing so quickly," She is chief physician to her husband and her children, und King Albert wrote at one time to his sister: "It is of no use pretending to have a. headache to escape from some stupid function, for Elise always doctors me up and sends me along." Medicine is not her only interest, however. She is un enthusiastic motorist nnd knows every trick of driving, ns well as of repairing. On the last visit of the king and queen to France they were driving unattended through the country near Tours, when ono of the tires burst. The king frankly admitted that he knew nothing about repairing it, hut Queen Elizabeth tucked up her luce skirt and went to work with a will. Tlie result was thnt they were only an hour late to their engagement, and the queen had added another to the list of her achievements. She is an eager student of literature nnd hns published books nnd essays on a variety of subjects��� uiuinly scientific. Fried Smelts.

Forbes, youngest son of John Oolin Forbes, R.C.A., the well-known Canadian artist, has just achieved high honors by winning the Chase scholarship in the London New Art School, which is conducted by Charles Orchardmen, and Royal Acadamicians J. J. Shannon, George Clausen, Arthur Hacker and Frank Brandwyn. Tlie award is the more meritorious on account of the number and high standing of the students competing.

TOBACCO SMUGGLE I IN PRISON SAVED FROM SUICIDE Letter to Him Announcing Her Intention Rushed to Public Station Paris, France.��� A dramatic attempt at suicide hy a girl ot 19, named Noel waa prevented nt Cherbourg recently by tbe presence ot mind ot her brother, a railway guard. The young man was swinging himself on the footboard ot a train which was leaving for Paris when a letter without an envelope was handed him. The letter contained a few incoherent linos from Ills sister saying that she was going to commit suicide, and that her body would be found in the sea at the cad of the jetty. Young Noel at the risk of his life, jumped from tho train, retaining hold of the rail, and running along with the train, gave his sister's letter to a man at the other end of the platform, where ho swung himself on the footboard again, shouting to his colleague to run as hard as he could with the letter to the polioe. Fortunately, there was a police magistrate in the station, and more fortunately still, there was a motorcar Just outside. The police magistrate dashed at full speed down the jolly and arrived as Mile. Noel threw herself into tho sea. Tho magistrate shouted to three customs house ofll- rers in a boat which was putting into the harbor and they succeeded In sav ing the girl when she was nearly 100 yards from shore. Her brother received the news of her resuco when the train arrived at Caen. TO CURE A COLD IN ONE DAY Tako LAXATIVE BROMO Quinine Tablets. Druggists refund money If It fall! to cure. IS. W.

Official Guilty of the Act Is Sent to Jail for Four Months London, Kngland. Au extraordinary story of the ensc with which convicts have been able, to communicate Illicitly with their friends and receive presents of tobacco from them was unfolded at tho Port kind polico court recently. Samuel Crowhurst, a civil guard at Portland convict prison, was charged With having Illegally conveyed tobacco Into the prison.

He said that Crowhurst did not come In contact with the convicts Within the prison hall hut ho hnd an opportunity of seeing convicts who worked apart from tho ordinary gangs outside of tho prison. One such man was a oonvlcl named Day, with whom Crowhurst became acquainted and used as a medium be- I ween other convicts and their Friends. At lhe end. of last year there was considerable Irafllc In the prison and a walch being kept, a quantity of tobaoco was found concealed In a part nf tho prison where Day worked. Tbo tobacco waa found In a ground frame used fur rearing planttl and was hidden under sawdust. Chief Inspector Ward and Inspector Ilurtou were sent from London to make a special Investigation. They found that. Day had received loiters which various convicts had written to their friends asking them to Bond money for tobacco. They also found Hint Hay had handed the letters to Crowhurst, and that he had inserted In them a slip of paper requesting money for tbe tobacco to he sent to Mr. Crothor, care of post-o nice.

Close of Murder Trial at Naples Naples, Italy. ��� The trial of Yvoano do VIllcBpreux, the young Italian comedy actress, who Is said to have killed her lovo*, Dr. Ettore 'fur- do, In a fit of jealousy, has come to an abrupt close with disgraceful Bccnes of violence between tho king's procurator general and the lawyers for the defense. Although the accused has been In prison awaiting trial for three years, the medical experts It ts said, have not had time to examine her mental condition, while the chief of the forty witnesses aro now scattered in various parts of North and South America and Erythrca. For these reasons the procurator gonerrl, who corresponds to tho ..raerican district attorney, mo.cd the indefinite postponement of the trial to a future assize. To this the presiding judge agreed. This was the signal for an outbreak of disorder. Atrocious insults were hurled from tho well ot the court against tho chancellor, procurator and Judges. 'Scoundrels, liarcl' bawled the procurator general. 'Base villain!' retorted the chief lawyers for the defense. The procurator then spra..i from the bench with uplifted fists. Court attendantu hurriedly Interposed themselves between the combatants, while the presiding judge jump-.t from the ben h, and tugging vigorously at the procurator's tcga, got that official out ot danger by a back exit. The crowd choercd the disorderly lawyers, while armed police were ordered to clear the court. Before this amazing scene the judge had put the prisoner through clever cross-examination, during which, aft- or reminding her that before Bhe was 18 she had bi :;i twice charged with theft and condemned to ten months' detention in a reformatory, he elicited that instead of having been born in Spain, as slit pretended Villespreux had never been nearer th. t country than Turin, her native city. She admitted that her real name ls Fornais, that she had fled from home when barely 13, and that ' -'fore starting her stage career sho had been a chambermaid.

If you are accustomed to look on health as a gamble you will probably prove a loser early in the game. Some may ho". 1 on to health and life for considerable time and defy the laws of nature, but there are many rules of the game which are conducive to !-ealth and long life. Take nervous diseases, for example. There aro many symptoms to warn one of the approach of nervous exhaustion long before therj is danger of locomotor ataxia or some dreadful form of paralysis. But they seem such little things that their ilanger signal is not taken notice of. Sleeplessness, headache, indigestion, irrltr.billty, loss of vigor and energy, discouragement and dls- pondency, all point to low vitality and exhausted nervc3. Dr. Chase's Nerve Food has betn w-onderfully uccessful in the cure of nervous disease of a serious nature, such as prostration, locomotor ataxia and partial paralysis, but persistent treatment and considerable patience are necessary. On thlB account we pre'or to think of Dr. Chase's Nerve Food as a preventive treatment, which overcomes theBe symptoms by rebuilding the feeble, wasted nerve cells and restoring vigor to mind and body.

Mrs. Slyder knew nothing nbout thnt struggle, but sbe could not adopt n servant for au ancestor and win. She thoroughly understood tbo power of money nnd made a deal with tbo herald for a much better origin. He at ouce unearthed Baron Herman Sbnyder, who In tho fifteenth century got very rich by robbing travelers who passed through the valley below bis castle. A son hud emigrated to Jamestown, :Vn.. and tho name had become corrupted to Slyder. The name Herman, however, bad been retained among Ills descendants.

Cockflghting in London I When this announcement was made the other morning in one of the metropolitan papers people who read it rubbed tlieir eyes in amazement, wondering whether they hnd suddenly been transported Irom the twentieth to tlie eighteenth century, when cockfight- iltg in the metropolis was the sport nf kings and dukes and lords, ami was as common as horseracing or football is to-day. Even the police themselves were surprised to be told that, cock- lighting liad taken place by the aid ol lantern light on a Sunday morning on Hackney Marshes. It is Common knowledge, nf course, that cookflghtlng has been Illegal pinee the middle ot the nineteenth century, but tho faet is that it is still enthusiastically carried on in many parts ot England, as well as in Ireland. From time to time reports appear in Ilie newspapers ol secret cockfights, the orgnni/.ors of which usually manage to evade the police. In a ease at Kidderminster, recently, one of the defendants mentioned that he had indulged in tho "sport" with dukes, ' earls, and solicitors, while at a cock- i fight which took place on the banks of the Manchester Ship Canal, some few miles from Manchester, it was stated that not a few of the patrons assembled in motor cars, and that large sums ol money changed hands over the affair. In Cumberland ami other northern districts there are still many adherents of this brutal pastime. Not long ago a match between old English game birds from the P.ol- ton and Blennerhasset districts was decided at a quiet rendezvous three miles from Wigton. "Owing to the vigilance of the police." we are told, "the affair was carried through with great secrecy, and the audience was in u way select." The light was. however, brought to a conclusion without the guardians of the law discovering that such a thing was taking place. This is how the fight was described hy the sporting reporter who attended it: "The Bnlton cock, which was the heavier bird, was favorite, and" it justified the confidence of its supporters, for the first round decided the match. Tho feathered contestants, after being duly clipped and heeled, were pitted, and on their getting together the Bolton cock, with a powerful stroke of its steel spur, rendered its antagonist hors de combat. The Bolton cock was therefore declared the winner, and its owner received the stake." A few weeks later another fight took place between birds from the same districts, and on that occasion it was reported that the Blennerhasset sportsmen had their revenge. Their bird, after a more prolonged struggle than was witnessed in the first encounter, rendered Its opponent helpless, thus winning the stakes for its owner. What happens from time to time in England, in defiance of the law, also /takes place in Ireland. Not long ago about 2.000 cockfighters from the counties of Cavan, Armagh, Monaghan, and Tyrone, assembled near Smith- borough, in the county of Monaghan, to witness a "main of battles," which had been arranged by the followers of the game for a considerable amount of money in bets. Although it was assize day in Monaghan Town, which seems to have taken advantage of by the wily "sports," owing to the absence of many of the police on duty there, yet several members of the iorce who had become aware of the proposed cockfight followed the "sportsmen," who had congregated bv trains, bicycles, jaunting cars, and atl sorts of conveyances.

When the Slyders appeared In Iter Ho the maternal head of the family assumed command nnd laid ber plans for a campaign. She wns a shrewd woman lu her way, nnd, though the object of hor ambition cannot be said to have been especially practical, she went about It In a very practical way. Her plan was this: Tbe Slyders were to be an old and aristocratic family who bad gone to America to mend their fortunes many years ago nnd bad succeeded In doing bo. They had tow returned to tnke the position that keen, noticed a paper lying on one ot tbem, a sixteenth century saddle, and, I stooping, read on It the name and ad- j dress ot Karl Ilarsinger.

Following her annual custom, Queen Alexandra on St. Patrick's Pay presented the Irish Guards, now stationed at Wellington Barracks, with sprigs of shamrock in honor of St. Patrick's Day. The shamrock was sent to Earl Roberts, as honorary colonel. In his unavoidable absence at the parade Col. FitzClarenee distributed the sprigs to the lieutenant-colonel, and he, in turn, made sub-distribution to the various officers, company officers being responsible for seeing that each of their men secured a spray. Later, the Guards marched to the Roman Catholic church of SS. Peter and Edward. Palace street, to attend a special celebration of Mass, each man wearing in the second buttonhole of his great-coat the bunch of shamrock. MEW CAUDELiBRA. pleasure to our grandmothers.

Oldest of British Sports. Hawking is the oldest of all British sports. To the uninitiated the most marvelous feature of hawking is the manner in which the hawks themselves, naturally the wildest and wariest of the feathered tribe, have been trained to surrender voluntarily their liberty and return literally like a bolt from the bine in obedience to the will of the I'aleoner. This indeed seems the more remarkable when one 'earns that the best birds are those which have attained maturity in a wild state.���London Field. An Advanced Tory. The engagement of the Hon. Wm.
