Wc have been given to understand that the veterinary inspectors sent out by the government have found ten cows badly infected witli tuberculosis in one of the Japanese dairies close to Courtenay. If this is the case' the dairy should be closed at once. We have heard frequent complaints that these dairies were very unsanitary, but if it is proven that tuberculosis exists in them they should be closed, as they are uot only a menauce to the people who consume the products, but to neighboring cattle as well. Alcohol may lie a good creature of God, but its use as a medicine or for beverage purposes is becoming every year more restricted, on the authority, too, of the truest science of our time. At the recent International Congress of Physiotherapy, in Berlin, Germany, Professor Ewald, of Berlin University, one of the mest eminent clinical teachers in the world, made this statement, "I have reached the conclusion that in no infectious disease has the value of alcohol been proved. Ou the other hand, it diminishes the natural resistance to the inroads of disease." The use of alcohol in medicine is decreasing very much everywhere, with every evidence that it will practically pass out altogether in the process of time. We are told that in several well-known London hospitals the expenditure on alcohol has decreased more than one- half during the past twenty-five years, though the business of all of them had very largely increased. In these days, when tlie liquor advertiser is telling us that beer is a food and better than beefsteak, it is well to remember that science is saying with more emphasis every day that alcohol in any form is a dangerous poison to the human system, The Comox Pair opens today. The exhibits are being placed in the hall and sheds, nnd are being judged. To morrow is the big day however, when all the live stock will be on tlie grounds, and the sporting events will take place.

I um sorry to see this, especially as you used the stock phrase that has kept England in tlie background in aviatiou matters, viz., Man's place is not iu the air, if it was he would have been provided with wings, Ten years ago in England any would-be-aviator was met with this grandmotherly phrase from some chuckling genius. On tlie same principle I should like to ask why some of tlie Courtenay boys were not provided witli (ins if meant to switn, and why wus not man born with a railway engine in his pocket if meant to travel by train. Do you not believe thnt things nre evolving and that this evolution is part "of the supreme plan. The beauty of life is its diversity and the beauty of the brain power is its originality, About ���'little if any sympathy can be offered," well, you do not know the men or you would moderate this, Vours truly, W. 0. Robertson, m.p.s. Past President Areo Club. [We were not aware we had used a stock phrase, We certainly thought it was original, which goes to prove that great minds think alike. From our observation of some of the Courtenay boys they would need a whole outfit of fins, gils and scales if they were to make a success of swimming, Tlie railway proposition is too weighty a oue to answer off-hand. From our observation of aviators we have al ways judged them as reckless daredevils seeking notoriety.

Place all cakes to cool on a wire sieve and never put them away; in tins till perfectly cool. ' Ordinary wall papers may be cleaned with dough, or rubbed with a soft clean flannel dipped in fine oatmeal. Slices of lemon, topped with grated horseradish, make a pleasing garnish for veal served in any form. Candles used for lighting the dinner table will not drip if placed on ice for two or three hours just before serving the meal. | Do not throw your worn-out hol- water-bag away, but cut it in round or oval dieces and use them as mats to put under flower pots, When washing white dress skirts do not wring them but hang them dripping wet on the line by the belt. The weight of the weight of the water prevents any shrinking and keeps the skirt an even length.

A good many people would have liked to serve Ilie smart nocturnal in the same way, it occurred to him. When he reached Bagguli y's doorstep, a groom was lending away his horse; evidently he had just, come in from riding. (loud luck! nt any rate. CHAPTER X Waiting The last, day of suspense had come. Sir Richard Hanley had kept up a show of cheerfulness before his friends, political and social, during the past fortnight. Only Maud, his butler, nnd his valet���both old servants, who had been with the statesman many years���knew the contrary, lu his brain was the iteration of a perpetual question, which met him nt his meals, which sat behind him as ne rode through the Park, and over '.he frosty roads leading In and out ol London, north and south���above all which lay by Ills side at night, and i-roke to him amid that mysterious j silence which conies upon a great city about two o'clock in the morning��� the most impressive silence in the whole world to the wakeful watcher. Quite as much as Murgatroyd, Hanley had leathed a marked and con- splvuous nilestone in his life. Some thing was wiitten on It. What that writing was as yet seemed as uncertain and elusive ns the obiter dicta of a Delphic oiacle. It might be as the Handwriting on the Wall in ancient iiabylon; and as the days drew on without news, Hanley grew to be certain that :o It was to be. During the wakeful nights his whole past had risen before him. It was a consecutive panorama of conspicuous and untitling success. Born to a good position, and the inheritor of a name which had won honors for itself in both camp and court, he had made it greater. Wealthy by inheritance, his aims had never been sullied by the pereptual striving to make a good show with a narrow margin, which has been the bane of many capable units of the great governing class. Of late he was well aware he had filled The Right Soap For Baby's Skin sCoticuraSoap TN the care of baby's skin and hair, Cuticura Soap is the mother's favourite.

Be this as it may, there is no doubt, that the two sides of the brain have different functions, and right or left-handedness is by no means restricted lo the arms alone.

The centre of sppech is on lhe left side of the brain of a right handed person and on the right, side of a left handed person.

GREAT BRIDGES Facts of Gie.it Structures Across the T.iy and Forth Nol ihe least of the extraordinary teats of Hi., rodotiblabld bridge-build- sr, Sir William Arrol, v.as tho faol thai al one time he carried on two such gigantic contracts as the Tay ���ind Perth Bridges. II was a striking tribute io his greui powers of organ I tall Oil anil lo his genius for engineer- Ing on a mammoth scale. The construction of tho Tay Bridge was only halt-finished when lie made a starl with the gigantic undertaking which low spans the firth of Forth, from Hie designs of Sir John fowler and Sir Benjamin Baker, Over a year was spent in the preliminary preparations alone���-Uie designing and making of special plant, lhe erection - f workshops on shore and the thousands and one tilings essential lo tbo success nf such a large scheme. The cost of temporary plant ran to hair-a-niillion sterling, aud Included thirty slenin 11 id other barges, tugs, launches anl boats, sixty steam cranes and winches, fifty hydraulic cranes, forty-eight steam engines an 1 hydraulic jacks, hftnd-cranes and drlllii..; machines almost Innumerable; not to mention one million cubic feet of timber and sixty miles of wire. The enormous nature of this engineering wonder of the world may he gathered from Hie following figures: The total lengih is over a mile and a half, and consists of two spans, each nearly a third ot a mile long; two spans of six hundred and seventy-five feet each. In ihe piers there are about one hundred and twe.ily thousand cubic yards of masonry, and iu the super-structure over forty thousand tons of steel aud some fifteen thousand Ions of iron. The building of tbo Tay Bridge was an opportunity for a display of his engineering genius which the ambitious bridgeuu.ker eagerly welcomed. A" rigorous examination revealed the old foundations to be insecure, and it was decided to build an entirely new bridge a short distance farther up the river. Within five years from its commencement���1882 to 1887���a remarkable erection, over two miles in length, and constructed at a cost of seven hundred and fifty thousand pounds, spanned Ihe estuary, a structure strong enough Io defy the fiercest gale that ever blew. it was the greatest engineering triumph of the age. until it was eclipsed by a greater���lhe Forth Bridge.

W. N. U. 961 Saskatchewan Lady Adds Her Testimony to What Has Already Been Said of the Great Work Dodd's Kidney Pills are Doing. Caesarvllle, Sask. (Special! ��� The scarcity of female help in a new country subjects the women of the prairies to unusual strain, and careful observation has established Ihe fact that this stiain llrst mak . itself felt In the kidneys. For this rcascn Dodd's Kidney Pills ..re making an enviable reputation from the Great Lakes to the foothills of the Rockies. Everywhere you will llnd women singing tho praises of the great Canadian kidney remedy that lias banished their paln3 and weariness, and brought them back to health. Among the many is Mrs. Edgar Cowen, an estimable lady ot this place. "1 have found Dodd's Kidney Pills very beneficial," Mrs. Cowen states. "It anything I can say will help any sufferer I am glad to add my testimonial to what has already been said." The kidneys strain all the refuse material out of the blood. If they are out of order tills refuse remains in the blood, and becomes poison. That's why sound kidneys mean pure blood and good health. Dodd's Kidney Pills make Bound kidneys. Quotations That are Wrong Some of the most frequently used quotations are not quotations at all, but in "many cases convey the opposite meaning of the original wording. Fenimorc Cooper, for instance, thought he waB quoting from the Bible when he spoke of au Inscription being so devised that he who runs may read, signifying that it was easier to run than read. It Cooper had looked In his Bible be would have found in the book of Habakuk that the passage he tried to quote was: Write the vision and make It plain that he may run that readeth it. The vision was a warning : nd the reader was to flee from danger, but tho Cooper version has survived the original aud practically put It out of use. A popular chronic misquotation is that of the passage In Hudlbras, which says: lie that compiles against his will is of the same opinion still. Authors and public speakers without number have twisted that, into: A man convinced against hiB will is ot the same opinion still, forgetting that a man who was convinced could not possibly remain ot the same opinion lor if he was of the time opinion he would not be convinced. Theodore Hoosevelt publicly declared that Washington in his farewell ad- dresB snld: To be prepared for war is the most effective means to promote peace. But the first President said nothing of the sort lu his farewell address. In his first message to Congress he said: To be prepared for war is one of the most effective means of preserving peace, and he spoke of oth- (r means as well. Novelists do not seem to be very strong In their knowledge of the Scriptures somehow, and Sir Walter Scott, In 'The Heart of Midlothian,' attempts to point a moral with the words: Our simple and unpretending heroine had the merit of those peacemakers to whom it is promised as a benediction that they shall Inherit the earth. The fact ls that the peacemakers did not receive any such promise, but it Is said that the meek shall Inherit the earth. tour kinds of wood used are obtained ! principally from outside sources and ' three and one halt million dollars are I annually sent out of Ihe province for, Imported wood slock. The Imported oak alone costs one million six bun-! dred thousand dollars annually, tor this tree has become commercially oxtlncl In Ontario while the hickory: and chestnut groves of southern Ontario have also, alinnsl entirely disappeared. Even good clear white pine is becoming hard to obtain and' lis market, value is steadily rising fori It. represents twenty one per cent! of the total wood consumption in Ontario for Industrial purposes. Of move Interest to the small consumer of wood-products nre the side lights Hie bulletin throws on the poa-' slhlllly of substituting cheap home grown woods for the expensive foreign species now used so extensively. Recent tests made of their physical properties have demonstrated the suit-1 ability for certain purposes of many native species, hitherto despised by the dealers. For hardwood flooring In place of the oak and maple now' In general use, may bo substituted the home grown birch nnd beech which | tako a high polish and have the advantage of being considerably cheaper. Likewise for Interior finishing, tlie expensive oak can he very closely [ imitated by stained black ash and stained birch Is almost Indistinguishable from mahogany, while stained red gum requires an expert to distinguish II from the costly Ciraassiau walnut. The now expensive white pine is bekig replaced, where durability la not a requisite, by the cheaper | spruce, basswood and elm. Poplar and balsam fir are two of the most common trees in Ontario and that they have wider uses is evident from the fact that poplar Is highly valued for h .rdwood flooring in Manitoba while balsam fir is perhaps the most widely used native species in the Maritime provinces. The bulletin also Indicates the existence of a market in Ontario for sumac, apple and cherry logs. The lumber cut from them being worth $30, $46.50, d.id $44.50 per thousand feet board measure respectively. The Forestry Branch has already been instrumental in securing sales ot the wood of worn out apple orchards and is desirous of further serving the public along these lines. The bulletin on The Wood-using Industries of Ontario can be had gratis from the Forestry Branch, Department of the Interior, Ottawa. A similar report dealing with the Maritime Provinces will appear shortly. \JT7HAT do ynu pay for in shot- "*"������^4^'% , ��/ VV shells?

Correcting the Answer At a horse-stealing trial out west a Jury was gathered and shut up in a room after a brief trial, and when an hour had gone by a mob burst in and unceremoniously demanded what tho verdict wns. Not guilty, said the foreman. That won't do, said the leader of the mob fiercely. You will have to do better than that. And ho shut the jury up again. In half an hour the door was opened once more. . Well, gents, jour verdict, said the leader. Guilty, the foreman replied. There were hurrah from the crowd and the leader said: Correct. You can go now. We strung him up au hour ago.

It is a great circle of tbe celestial sphere, cutting the celestial equator at two points 180 degrees apart and making with it. an angle <.�� 23',��� degrees known as the obliquity of tlie ecliptic. The crossing points are called the equinoxes, because the days and nights are then equal, and the points midway between the equinoxes ure the solstices, because the sun then seems to stai 1 still for a few days. The ecliptic is so called because eclipses occur only when the moon is crossing it or is near it, for the moon's ii'bit cuts the ecliptic In two poiuts, called nodes or knots, and at other times is above or below it. If tha moon when In either node, is In line with the sun and tho earth we have nn eclipse, either total or annular. If sl.e I near her node we have a partial eclipse, The moon's nodes are not stationary, but move backward on the moon's orbit, completing a revolution In about nineteen years, when the eclipses of the period recur in the same order nnd al nbout the same Intervals as before. This period of eighteen years and eleven days is culled the saros. it was known to the Chaldeans and the Creeks nnd gave them llieir data for computing eclipses. Any intelligent person can trace the sun's path In the heavens. If the sun rises exactly In the east and sets In the west It is the time of the equinoxes. If the sunrise and sunset points are faithest south and the sun Is very low In the ' avens at noonday It is the time of the winter t".slice. YJ. N.

His daughter had no Unowlodgo of thu World or of society, There was no near relative with whom she could make ber home, nml she did uot relish living nlono. It was natural, therefore, Unit she should wish to soo something of the world, and, being Invited lo Join a parly going abroad, she decided to avail hei'sclf of the opportunity, Afler visiting the principal cities of western Europe Miss Asliton found herself In Home at tho most expensive hotel there. She was still the unsophisticated Chicago girl, but ber surroundings bad changed. This difference for her did not consist in lhe vast Hold of antiquity about her, for, although fairly educated, a girl of twenty ls not likely to be versed In the literature that has been banded down to us from ancient Homo. What was new to Miss Ashton was tbo collection of persons from all parts of the world sho found In the Eternal City. Though sbe obtained no entree into Roman society, *VEnV DI'.Al) WAS CnA.VED FOnWABD, EV- F.IIY ETB AND EAU Ol'EN. sbe was thrown in with tourists of every variety. Home, too, has Its share of adventurers, Wherever Is the American with Ills fnrfamed dollars to spend there Is tho adventurer, and no class Is so susceptible of affording plunder for dissolute foreigners ns American heiresses. Miss Asliton could not long remain In oue place without attracting the attention of these cormorants. Sho was simplicity Itself. When visiting the golden house of Nero���and the guide showed her a ruined apartment as the emperor's smoking room���she did not stop to consider that some fifteen centuries had elapsed lifter Nero's time before tobacco was Introduced Into Europe. When Inspecting tableware exhumed from Pompeii and the guide showed her certain dishes from which lie told her tlie I'oinpeliuis drank tbelr coffee it did not occur to her that a similar period had elapsed before Europe hnd begun to enjoy that beverage. It Is not strange Hint a girl so easily deceived In these matters should put faith in any man who claimed tbat bo loved her. Miss Asliton spent a winter In Koine, snd when spring came she had received a number of propositions of mar- ::agc. There are many princes In Italy, for every one descended from an ancient ruler of one of ihe formerly Independent principalities of what Is now United Italy bears tbe title of prince or princess. Among Miss Ash- ton's train of suitors wero a prince, an English earl, a German baron and a French mnrqma. it was fortunate for Miss Ashton that thorn were so man., of those suitors that ihoy balanced ono another, llnd there been but one It is qnlto probable thai bj persistence he might havo won (tic prize. The prince poured Into Iwr enr tales of bis benutlful home In Sicily, where they could dream tlie happy hours awny. The earl pictured Ids estates In Hereford, Kngland (loaded with mortgages)! tho baron his sellings in Westphalia, Germany. The marquis spoko eloquently of llll chateau on the hanks of the T.olro that hnd been the home of kings and had do- ���cended to blm through thirteen generations. To tbls nobleman the young lady said that she could uot think of marrying Inlo tlie thirteenth generation, since that wus nn unlucky number. Miss Ashlou after her father's dealt. became used to looking upon ICdmond Wiirllohl as a sort of uuiniigcr for anything, Irrespective of Quancei, that sh�� could not manage herself.

Nevertheless ho sailed at ouco for Naples nnd lu a few hours after bis arrival In Italy wus In Itomo. "Well, Margie, what Is It?" he asked ns soon as tho two had settled down to business, "I'll tell you. I can't Imagine bow It happened that so many men should havo fallen In love wltb me ut once. I suppose It's the Italian nlr or souiw thlng, but it's so. And the worst of It Is that none ot them will be refused. There's Prince lioluzzi.

"I see no way out of It for you," said Warfleld, "but to go Into a betrothal bankruptcy. However, I'll make Inquiries about these gentlemen aud report to you If any ol (hem bears a good reputation. If so and you wish to marry him I'll help you out with the others���which as your guardian I have a right to do-ond you can be wedded to the man of your choice whenever you llko."

"How can tbat be done without the prince jumping iuto the Tiber and tbe marquis"��� "We'll bave tbctu locked up till they get over It." "Ob, my goodness gracious! I could never look them iu tbe face again." "It would bo just ns well that you shouldn't. However, my dear Margie, having brought me over here to get you out of your difficulty, perbnpsi you'd better leave tho matter to me." "That's just what I'd like-that is, If you don't mind such an awful job." "It won't be so hard for me as It would for you. Don't see nny of tbem till tomorrow afternoon.

Great heavens, I couldn't do that! Tbey would kill ono another." Warfleld persisted nud went nway, with a note for vach of tho suitors, which bo posted ut once. The next nfternooti Warfleld called before the others. He exacted a promise from Marguerite that she would bear him out in any statement he might make, though ho was obliged to assure her that nothing harsh should be said to nny of tbem. .

For tlie first time in Canada, it is said, a charge was laid the other day in Toronto which is not without considerable interest. It is termed "Conspiring to compensate." In January last Louis Sicgel was arrested for stealing a large quantity of furs, and Abraham Panscr went bail for him. It is now alleged that Panser was compensated tor so doing, to the extent of $25, and Nathan Shapiro, along with Louis Panser, are said to have negotiated the amount. Shapiro got a loan of a diamond pin, pawned it and then got some more money from Louis Panser, with tbe ticket a9 security. All three are now charged with the conspiracy.

When the Blue and the Cray Joined In a Birthday Celebration���A Meeting With Grant In Washington���Lincoln's Vi6it to Mrs. Pickett. iii Mrs. PIckott's Introductory cbnp�� ter to "The Heart of a Soldier, As He- vealed lu (lie Intimate Letters of General George I'i. Pickett, ('. H. A," there Is an extremely Interesting story. It appears that while al Itlcbmoud, Just nl'tcr the surrender, she was summoned lo Ihe door by a sharp rap. She gives a charming account of what followed: With my baby on my arm 1 answered the knock, opened tlie door nml looked up at il lull, gaunt, sad faced mini lu III tilling clothes, wbo, with the accent of the north, asked: "Is Ibis George Pickett's place';" "Yes, sir," 1 answered, "but he Is not here." "1 know Unit, ma'am," be replied, "but I Just wanted to sco the place. I am Abraham Lincoln." "Tho president I" I gasped, Tlio stranger shook his head and said: "No, ma'am; no, ma'am. Just Abraham Lincoln: George's old friend." "I am George Pickett's wife, and this Is his baby," was all I could say. My baby pushed away from mo and reached bin bands lo Mr. Lincoln, who look blm In bis arms. As he did so an expression of rapt, almost dlvlue tenderness and lovo lighted up the sad face. It was a look that 1 have never seen on any oilier face. My baby opened bis mouth wide and Insisted upon giving his father's friend a dewy, Infnnlilo kiss. As Mr, Lincoln gave (ho little one back to me, shaking bis linger nt him playfully, be said: "Tell your father, tbo rascal, tbat I forgive blm for the snko of that kiss and those bright eyes." Mrs. Pickett explains the Interest Lincoln showed In her husband by stating thnt It was through Mr. Lincoln's Influence that her husband received his appointment to West Point One Impression the book conveys is that of the kindly nnd generous feeling that existed between Confederates nnd Unionists graduated from West Point wbo had been friends before tha ���war. An exhibition of tills feeling was mnde nt tho llnio of the birth ot General Pickett's first baby. Mrs. Pickett, telling the story, says: On tbo occasion of my son's birth bonfires were lighted In celebration all along Pickett's line. Grant saw them nnd sent scouts to learn the cause. When they reported be said to General Iugnlls: "Haven't we some kindling on this sldo of tbo line? Why don't we strike a light for the young Pickett?" In a little while bonfires were flaming from tho Ferernl line. A few days later there was taken through tbe lines n baby's silver service engraved, "To (.eorge ID. rickett, Jr., from his father's friends, U. S. Grant, Itufus In- galls, George Suckloy," General Tickett, in n letter from Washington, relates another incident in which this same kindly feeling was manifested: After breakfast wo wont, ns arranged, to see Grant.

"Pickett, it seems funny, doesn't It, that 1 should bave any money to offer, but bow much do you need''" "Not any, old fellow; not a cent, thank you," I said. "I have plenty." "But Itufus tells me that you havo begun to build n bouse to take the place of lhe one old Rtulcr burned, and how can you build It without money? You do need some."

B, Higgins TOBACCOS C lgars igarettes ancKes Comox Exhibition Sports and Advertising Mditor The Review, I regret having contributed as I did some twenty-eight dollars since there was a missing link, 110 band being present. I have in mind a small village of about 100 people in the old country who had tlieir own brass band which cheered and put life into the place. This was started by a Dane who followed the occupation of truck gardening for a living and In liis spare time taught tlie young men of the village how to play. Tlie instruments were purchased on deferred payments guaranteed by a few of the principal residents. Eighteen months afterwards the receipts from band attendances liquidated all debts. Cannot this be achieved by Courtenay? Echo answers "YES." If there is any man around Courtenay who is capable of acting as bandmaster will he kindly communicate with Harry Idiens, Courtenay.
