Postmastei'-Oenerol Burleson tells of an old Scotchman who was listening to former Secretary Wilson's lecture on the activity of microbes.

Sutton & Kirkwood Undertakers and Embalmers Night or Day Calls promptly Attended Phone 27 Courtenay Editor Courtenay Review. Dear Sir:���The movement in favour of the establishment of a hospital to serve Courtenay and the district, came it will be remembered into some prominence in the early part of last year, and no doubt appeared to many of our local residents to bear welcome fruit, in the arrival of a community of nursing sisters, whose object as announced in your columns, appeared to be identical with tlie requirements of the district, It is therefore with no little surprise that I have read the article in your issue of the 9U1 instant which would seem to indicate that with the exception of the formation of a committee of gentlemen for no very specific purpose other than that of receiving correspondence aud promises of assistance, we arc in much the same positioi as we were a twelve month since. Now we are all very much aware of the crying need of a local hospital, and your account of the sufferings endured ou the road to Cumberland hospital by the poor fellows injured at the camps, serves the more to emphasize the need; however I am quite sure that neither the casualties in the logging camps and other works in the vicinity, nor the health of the community iu general, warrants the establishment of two such insitutions, neither of which under these circumstances could expect to be self supporting. 1 Never-the-less unless the ^Sisters of St. Joseph have renounced their' declared intentions, the article in your issue of last Thursday indicates that such a condition of things is really contemplated, I have no wish to advance any special pleading on behalf of either proposition, but taking into consideration that the matter is urgent I think that ihe cause may well be more closely examined before we have definitely committed ourselves to a policy that savours of opposi tiou, in a matter of vital need. In the first place we have already among us a community of nursing ladies who have settled in the neighbourhood with the announced intention of erecting a hospital to serve the district, and who as a preliminary have, as I am myself awart, already opened their door* to quite a number of patients. - As to whether as a religious body they are in a position to apply for government aid, (which you inform us is ouly granted to an undenominational establishment) 'with regard to any project they may have in view, can be to us only a matter of conjecture and is in my opinion beside the mark. I might mention however that the oue or two institutions of the kind conducted by religous societies that 11'nve 1 .en in touch with, have as far us the hospital work was concerned, been as undenominational as the most exacting government could require, If then it appears tome, we have the fulfilment of our object already in embryo, wherein lies the purpose of our committee of local men? Perhaps Mr. F. D. Cameron or whoever may be charged with the interpretation of the scheme will kindly consent to be a little more explicit and with your kind permission, (as the matter is of public import) through the medium of yonr columns. I am yours truly A Resident in the District. Courtenay, April ii, 1914, this port for the States, But a number are shipped to places in Canada, and, owing to the hard shells nnd tough skins, they are eveii reaching places as far east as Montreal without a single egg being broken Now is the time for the Comox Valley poultry keepers to organize before it is too late. Cowichan has done so to good advantage, and you can buy Cowjchan eggs in Victoria to-day, knowing that they are fresh, and not mixed with the product of the nest that is occasionally discovered carefully hidden away. The point to be emphasized is that Cowichan eggs constitute aparticular brand, whereas Comox egg! nre not known as such anywhere, not even in Comox Valley itself. If, in two years time, the Chinese egg has driven the Comox product out of the local Comox market itself, the aggrieved poultry men will blame, not themselves, not the climate, not the Comox hens, but the Government. The astounding fact, going back to the poultry question, is that so few people, comparatively, keep hens. As a result, a market is created, not for the local product, but for the cheaper and competing product. Vour correspondent is acquainted with a resident of this city, who has five pullets in a run placed on a plot as big as a good sized kitchen table. Result, lA eggs, for the month of March, worth at least $3, aud moreover I absolutely fresh, at a cost of 50; of feed, 1 The Government of B. C. will supply any applicant with enough literature on poultry to satisfy the severest craving for knowledge on that interesting subject. Easter passed all too quickly in Victoria, but was enjoyed by large numbers of people. The attendance at the various places of worship constituted a record, and taking one insUnce alone, that of Christ Church Cathedral, it is safe to say that from 8 a. m. until t p, tn, the building was crowded. Sirvi e followed service, and one congregation replaced another; an overflow service was held in an adjoining school-room as there were so many people who could not gain admittance to the 11 a. m. service. This is as it should be and the province could do with more of the religious spirit, which is after all an instinct as natural as that of sleep, or eating or drinking, in that it satisfies a natural craving, In North and South, iu !_,._! and West, Aston's HandmadeShoes will stan 1 the Test.

"I got medicine from tho doctor, and tried several other remedies but nothing helped me. Then one of my neighbors advised mo to try Dodd's Kidney Pills. I bought four boxes, and they helped almost from the first. I have used nearly two dozen boxes and am nearly cured." That rheumatism is one of the results of diseased kidneys is again shown in Mrs. Baldwin's case. She had headaches, stiffness of tlie joints and backaches, her sleep was broken and tinrofroshing, and she was always tired and nervous. Her limbs swelled and she was always thirsty. These are all symptoms of diseased kidneys. When sho cured her kidneys with Dodd's Kidney Tills the symptoms vanlshod���and so did the rheumatism. ouglily throe times.

"There is nn lisence required ut nil for residents of the province who want io lish," sinted Game Warden Williams lodny, in answer to a question 1 which had been Suggested by many enquiries, The recent amendments to tlie Game Act. have made many people believe that a fisliiiiR lisence must be taken out, but this is uot so except in the case of non-residents who must take out the customary lisence us before. The gairie wardens throughout the province have made several arrests and secured convictions during the past week where breaches of the game laws have been discovered: Fred _i'agg and R.

May Exclude Chinese Ottawa, April 20.���A new interpretation of the recent Order-iu- Council prohibiting tlie entrance into British Columbia of all artisans and laborers lias been made bere. It was thought at first that owing lo the Chinese Act, the Order-in- Council did not affect the entrance of Chinamen. However, after a close scrutiny of the legal aspects of the question, it lias been decided tbat under the present regulations the government can, if it so desires, j exclude all newcomers from Cbiua, I and in view of tbe recent racial I difficulties in Ilritish Columbia the government may avail itself of this interpretation. The only nation now excluded from the provisions of the order are Japanese cases, covered by the treaty arrangements with that country, Ottawa is awaiting with considerable interest and sDine anxiety the arrival of the steamer which lias sailed from Shanghai with 4oo Hindus who, it ts claimed, will endeavor to test the legality of the recent Canadian Orders-in-Council as to their rights as British subjects.

TREVOR S ��� ��� During the French revolution among those who believed In securing certain reforms from the king was Kdinoud de -oiivler, a younger son of Count de Bourler. He was enthusiastic for ihe etiui-o until It passed Into lha bands of those who wero Infuriated, Ilka wild animals, by the taste of blood; Iben he wished to withdraw. II* was thinking uf leaving .ranee when he received the appointment of Judge, before whom persons who were to b�� got rid ot would lio brought for condemnation. Da Bouvler whs horrified, suspecting that tho appointment had been given blm with a view to sending bins to the guillotine on a dim-go of sympathizing with thu royalists, lie would receive from Ilobcsplerre, who was then In control, n list of those who were to be condemned, and when they were brought before him It would tie expected that be would do the bidding of bis superior. If be refused he would be sent to execution himself. Nor would bis refusal save those Whom be wns expected to condomu. Do Homier was young and wished to live. Indeed, he hoped, If his life was spared till this flame of vengeance had burned itself out, to be of aervlce to his country. Summoning bis resolution, ho went to tbo courtroom tbe morning after bis appointment and, by doing what another would do it he did not, won the confidence ol' those tn power, while at the same time be was on tbo watch (or an opportunity to get out of France. Ha had condemned most of those Who wero brought before hlni, standing np under tho ordeal by summoning all hla fortitude when a child, n girl, waa brought before hlin. The judge flinched. Calling to him oue who hud charge of tbo prisoners, he ashed him Why one so young hnd been brought before him for condemnation. He was IBB l___irlONE- l_0__D AT THE I'AITI- lold that sbo was Louise do Chapporul, the last of Iho family of the Counts de Ohupporal, and it was to the interest ���f tbe revolution that tbo family be ���radicated. "But who ordered her to be brought here?" "Citizen Ilobcsplerre." "Is he willing to stand for the exaction of a child?" "No, M. lc .luge. As soon as she has been dispatched It will be announced that a mistake has been made." For a moment Do Bouvler meditated whether to step down from his chulr and surrender himself to be dealt with as an enemy to the revolution. But nn Idea struck him-not thnt there was much expectation of carrying it out without his own condemnation, ' ut there was a faint hope. At any rate, thero was hope for the child. "How old are you, little girl?" he asked, with a pity ln his voice ho eonld not control. "Seven," replied tbo child, with a ���mile. "Have you a papa and a mamma?" "Ves. but they bave taken them away." The judge bit bis Up to retain his aquanimlty. Ha knew that tbey had taken ber parents to the guillotine. II "That will do." be said to the man iu eharg* or nor. And she was led sway among those wbu were to be ex edited. These prisoners were to go to the inllloUhe the next day. Thut eveniug De Bouvler went io a clothing shop ind bought a pair of loose trousers, > idem, and a red silk handkerchief Then be bought a suit of boy's clothes. I'nklu.: these with bim. he went to s baker's and purchased a uo_on loaves of bread nud one of those wooden ves ���els In which bread Is carried by bnk _- In Paris. Theso articles be deposited In a room he bud hired In the morning, putting ��� r��_or 3 bis pocket, be sullied forth lu the direction of the courtroom, where he was expected to send nunc i IcttlUI to their long home. But turning Into a street thut led to the Place de la Revolution bo went toward the guillotine. A rmn- brel passed hiui, loaded wilb persons going to elocution, nnd among them he saw the condemned child, she, too, saw blm, smiled mid waved t_r hr.iul. He hurried on. When he reached the guillotine tho victims were being unloaded, stepping up to the executioner, be took from his pocket the parchment appointing him a judge uud showed It to him. "I condemned these prisoners yesterday," he said, "und I mado a mistake. This child Is not to bo executed." The executioner looked ut the paper and said nothing. It was nono of his business who wus to bo executed. De Bouvler then spoko to tho officer in charge of the troops surrounding the guillotine, but did uot show tbo evidence of his authority, tor he was known to tho officer. "This child got on the list by mistake." "Yes, M. le Juge." "I am going to take ber away." Tbe officer hesitated, then said that be supposed tt would be nil right, only be would expect the judge to take tho responsibility ln the case. This De Bouvler then spoke to tbe officer In child hy the hand, led her awuy. Ue did not hurry till be entered a narrow street lending from the Champs Elysces, tben walked as rapidly es the child was able. Taking her to the room he bad hired, he shared off bis beard, tben put on tbe bilker's costume, .tied tbo handkerchief about his neck, dressed the little girl in boy's clothes nnd cut off her long balr. Then, putting the receptacle filled with the bread on bis head and taking tho child by the hand, be went downstairs and out ou to the street. Meanwhile, a new butch ef prisoners wero brought to the courtroom to be condemned by Judge tie Bouvler, Tbo Judge did uot appear, but those in charge of the prisoners, thinking (hat he bad been belated, waited for him When an hour had passed without his coming, a messenger was sent to bis lodging. He was not there. Au announcement of the fact that tbe judge was not at court aud could not be found wns made to Robespierre. At once notiltcation was given to all In sympathy with the revolutiou to look out for the missing judge and arrest him If found. An hour later word reached Robosplcrro thut the missing Judge had taken away Louise do Chap- poral from tbe guillotine. The manager of tbe revolution was now certain that Do Bouvler had disobeyed ids order ami had taken to flight But be must pass tho city barricades, and orders were given to the gatekeepers to look out fur a mnn and u little girl. De Bouvlcr's object was to head Tor the coast and escape to England. When bo reached tho barricade, tho soldier of tbe gate was about to pass him when n man darted up on horse- hack with Uobesplerre'B order. The fugitive was refused a passuge till he '���onId be investigated. "Investigated!" cried De Bouvler. "1 tmve no time. I must carry tbls bread to my customers living outside the barricade." "But I am ordered tn stop Judge de Bouvler," replied the sentinel, "and a ilttlo girl." Do Bouvler laughed. "Do I look like i judge? And you arc toid to stop a Slrl, not n boy." Tho sentry called a sergeant, wbo looked at tho two wayfarers uud con suited the order, .or. a moment tbo mnn and thu child wero between life and death. Kate threw the die, and llfo won. "Go on," said the sergeant. "There's no ueed to keep person, from tlieir bread." Tbo barricade once passed, Do Bouvler found himself ou tbo road leading toward Calais. But lio bad not gone far before be took to tbe woods for tbo day, and on reaching another road bo changed bis direction, resolving to head for tho Belgian frontier. He peddled bread along his route, and wbeu bo bud sold ouo lot be bought another. Couriers wcrq sent out notifying the revolutionists on this route, tho one usually taken by emigres, to stop any young man with or without a Ilttlo girl wbo answered tbe description of ibo missing Judge. De Bouvlcr's two precautions threw those who were looking for blm off bis track. They did not know he was disguised ns a baker nor that tho child with him was a girl. Besides, tho fugitives appeared I to be commoners and nut aristocrats, ; as wns given out ���vftcr several narrow escapes Do i Bouvler, with Ms charge, crOHOu ine border into n country where be was safe. He weut to Belgium, where he turned l.oulsu over to soma emigre ladles, who on hearing her snd story agreed tu cure for her.

If you will i.ike two thin lengths of celluloid, put ihem In contact and then suddenly and rapidly pull them between your lingers you will observe they both havo become electrified���not only ou tlieir outside surfaces, where tbe friction of your fingers caused a negative electrification, but also on the Inner surfaco of Iho celluloid. Tbo strange part about this Is lhat ono of the Inner surfaces of the piece Is positively charged nnd the otber one Is negatively charged. I f ono of them Is slightly curved during the friction the convex oue will be positively charged and the concave sided one will be negatively charged. It seems, therefore, to depend upon whether the surfaco Is concave or 'bother It is convex-depressed or ex- inded-to produce negative or posi- e electricity. Even tbe most minute, -perceptible curvature is sufficient to five tho expected result It ulso Is impossible to pull the strips nf celluloid through the lingers without producing itich strong electrification that one piece will support the other. Even the vapor pressure of liquids ls stronger at tbo convex surface than at tho concave, If electrons tiro considered as panicles of gns dissolved in wilds���as tbey once were���ur us negative electricity, there will be a greater tendency for the electrons to escape from the convex side, which therefore will bo left positively charged. This also Is In perfect accord with tbo latest researches ii|>on electrons. Interesting experiments can be made by following the above directions. Celluloid has peculiar properties for testa.

But an invitation to lhe kaiser's "bier-abend" is paramount to a royal command to "bring your check book!" it is tbo cmpei-or'a way of raising money. All the money for the recently opened Kaiser Wllhelm Research Institute Is supposed to bnvo been raised in this way.

This was approved, and lhe money tbe emperor wished for his pel charity was raised. Soon aftor the merchant prince received another Invitation to drink beer at the palace. This lime some ono else had to write nut the first cheek, but It cost bim a good sum, anyway. Quite soon another Invitation ouuie, and the merchant prince was beginning to feel thnt his hobnobbing with royally was getting lo lie loo expensive a luxury. But an Invitation from a king ls ns binding us n summons, so ho went and found an anxious group of charily supporters siding around tho table.

There was no intention on the part of the Province to injure any legitimate investments made in rail-1 way construction in thiu portion of the country, but there was always tlie determination on the part of the Government that from the moment we might attack the enterprise we should lose no time and spare no effort in pressing on with it in a businesslike way, so that within a reasonable period of time we would be able to go to the people of Ilritish Columbia with some tangible resylts, No time has been lost. The various com plications have been fairly dealt with, In respect to the project of tlie HoweSound _. Pemberton Meadows Railway Syndicate we were face to face with the strong protest of these people against any trespass on the part of the Pacific Great Eastern corporation on the territory which they regard as their own. So that their investment might be protected aud so that the Pacific Great Eastern might be induced to make use of the trackage already provided, the company, in conference with all the interests involved, succeeded ir making arraugements which entitled the new company to take over the old trackage and make it part aud parcel of their system. At the present time there are 4, 000 nem engaged in the work of construction along this line, distributed for the most part between Squamish and Clinton. Surveys for the entire line to Fort George have been completed and everything is in readiness for the letting of contracts between Clinton and Fort George. The whole of this mileage is accessible from tide water and it is quite feasible to arrange for the distribution of gangs of workmen throughout its entire length, and in doing so to practically guarantee that by the end of the year, or at all events early next spring, the entire section will be completed and we can count upon having a continuous grade from North Vancouver right through to the city of Fort George. I would direct the attention of the House to the necessity for early action in regard to the construction of the bridge at the Second Narrows. The obligations of the Pacific Great Eastern impose upon the company a direct connection with the city of Vancouver, and it is generally admitted that the route must cross Burrard Inlet at the Second Narrows. I regret to have to report that, while tlie Provincial Government has provided a subvention of $400,000, and while the Federal Government has made an estimate of ��350,000, and while large municipal subventions of the city of Vancouver and neighbouring municipalities have also been arranged, to date practically nothing beyond the drawing of the plans and the calling for tenders has been accomplished.

Birth���At Cumberland, on Friday, April 10th, to. the wife of Mr. T. E Banks, a son. Whats tlie matter with our ball pla\ers? There was a time when Cumberland could boast of having some of the very best. If death had not taken fro 11 us the moving spirit in all athletic sports, the late Wilt Clinton, it would be different. The boys appear to have lost heart and interest in sports since his death? We would like to see' a leader with some of Wilt's spirit and disposition again in our midst. We are badly in need of such a one. HEADQUARTERS An enjoyable picnic to the beach at Camp 1 was arranged for Easter Sunday. More than forty went, the weather fortunately, was fine.
