occupied the station of Senu Chen, but at 9 o\u2019clock it was discovered .that a brigade of the enemy's infantry was advancing in front, while other columns were turning our detachments\u2019 left flank.The town of Senu chen, which is surrounded by walls, was also occupied by the Japanese.Consequently at 11 o'clock our troops slowly withdrew.Al regards losses we only know as yet that an officer and ten men were wounded.\u2018A reconnaissance carried out on the road from Sia kho tung to Arltatan and Khanza, revealed the presence of six companies of the enemy\u2019s infantry and two squadrons of caysiry et Mataratza, three miles south-east: of Kho tung.In this reconnaissance Captain \u2018Vanssilieff, Lieut.Makaroff and five Cossacks were wounded.Makaroff succumbed.\u2018There was some

at Winchapantse, on the night of June 26, remaining under arme at the eastern foot of Fen chou ling Hill until 5 in the morning, when the Russian artillery poured a deadly hail of shells into it.The Japanese artillery replied, after which the Kamada detachment drove off two companies of the enemy\u2019s infantry and occupied the stops of Tihsi- ung Hill, allowing the artillery to extricate itrel! from a bad position and reach ia place whence it could fire across Fen chou ling, enfilading the Russian lines.\"Then tsa .movements.! | the Japanese infantry advanced through the valley to the enemy's rear, while the Fukaya regiment defeated and routed two companies of Russian infantry: they threatened the enemy's left flank and rear, causing them to lose their freedom of action.The Russian artillery was silenced at seven in the morning and their whole line was thrown into utter confusion.The Asada infantry, assisted by engineers, dashed up the Lill, cut the entanglements and cleared the other obstructions.Then the whole force stormed the position.and occupied Fen chou ling Hill at 11.30.The enemy retreated under a fierce artillery fire towards Si mu cheng.The Russian positions at Feng chou ling were strongly fortified and formed the key to the Si mu cheng road.The enemy had been engaged for three months in making semi-permanent fortifications which formed a perfect defence.The Russian force comprised a battery of mounted artillery, mx batteries of field artillery, two machine guns.seventeen battalions and three regiments of infantry, and nine squadrons and one regiment of cavalry.SAID AMERICAN HAS A COMMAND Lino yang, July 1\u2014General Kuropatkin and General Kuroki ure moving thelr troops like men on a chess board.The Japanese are now twenty miles from Ian yang.The

July !\u2014The Emperor bas received the following despatch from 1 General Kuropatkin, dated June 30: \u2018Torrential rains fell in the Ta tche kiao district on June 28, and on the roads from Ta tche kiao to Siu yen, inundating our bivouacs.The Japanese are advancing slowly in different diree- our east and south fronts.\u2018On the south the Japanese are advancing eastward with the object of ef- } fecting a junction with Kuroki\u2019s army.\u2018It hak been ascertained by a recou- naissance in.the direction of Da.lin pass that the Japanese have retired some distance fram .the positions recently occupied by them.Their covering force, consisting of several companies, retired after a short fusillade.J \u2018A rt from the direction of Feng huang cheng, on June 29, announced that an energetic advance of the Japanesb forces had been discovered toward Wa fan huan and the Lin ho sin pass.\u2018The rains continue,\u2019 TEN THOUSAND MORE JAPANESE.Che, fog, July 1.\u2014On June 24, it is stated, the Japanese landed an independent division of tem thousand men at their naval base on the Elliott Islands.This division is to be used, it is said, to either assist General Nogi at Port Arthur or General Oku in clearing the railway.From an authoritative source it is learned that the Japanese now have one hundred and eighty thousand men in the field, including Gen.Kuroki\u2019s army on the road to Liao yang, the independent division of twenty thousand landed at Taku shan to support Gen.Kuroki, Gen.we army along the railway, Gen.Nogi\u2019s army at Port Arthur, and the ten thousand landed at Elliott Islands.None of the fourth army has yet been landed.RAIN WILL HAMPER.Bt.Petersburg, July 2\u20142 a.m\u2014It is reported here that the commencement of the rainy seaton\u2019 will materially afféct the whole military situation.The authorities consider that it greatly lessens the probability of an immediate decisive en- À Bsgement between Kuropatkin and Gen.Kuroki, and it is thought it will close the campaign in the upper part of the.Liao tung peninsula until good weather sets in.The Japanese will probably be forced to hold the positions where the rain finds them as best they can.The operations around Port Arthur will doubtless be seriously hampered.1t is believed the Japanese will find it peces- sary to establish another base, probably on the west.coast.of the lower part.ot the Lise tung peninsula, in- order to \u201cbring in food \u201csupplies, especially if the 10,000 troops reported to have been landed on the Elliott Islands are sent toward Port Arthur.The Japanese will probably be able to utilize the time in making preparations to push the siege on the resumption of fine weather.HOSPITAL OVERCROWDED.Che foo, July 1.\u2014Tha hospital here is overcrowded.The Russians maintain that the Heet is intact, with the exception of the battleship \u2018Sevastopol,\u2019 which is being repaired.A Chinaman who left Port Arthur last night says there are only four Russian warships, cruisers and battleshipa in the harbor, and none outside.The opinion prevails that the faster ships eluded the five Japanese warships maintaining the blockade.TERRIFIC EXPLOSION.Chee foo, July 1.\u2014What should prove to be a decisive naval engagement was in progress at one o'clock this afternoon midway between Che foo and Port Arthur.The steamer \u2018Che foo,\u201d which has arrived here, passed within fifteen miles of the Japanese fleet, consisting of two battleships and five cruicers, all actively engaged.The Russian fleet was not seen, but the distance of the Japanese fleet from land precludes the possibility of any attack on the land batteries.The captain of the \u2018Che foo\u2019 says he heard a terrific explosion, but was unable to discern whether a Japanese or a Rus sian ship was affected.St.Petersburg, July 1.\u2014The following despatch has been received at the War Office from General Zelinsky, dated June 30 :\u2014 \u2018The following reports have reached here (liao yang) from Port Arthur.On June 24, the Japanese displayed great activity at all the outposts, and in the hope of recapturing the mountains of Wah teei laza, which had been taken from them, they attacked, but again were repulsed, and our troops now oc cupy the village of Beik-Hohoon, northeast of Siao ping tao.The enemy maintained a heavy fire at long range on our left flank.Their squadron lies in Talien wan Bay, in full view of Port Arthir.It consists of à cruiser, two torpedo boat destroyers, and seven merchant ships, which evidently brought cargoes into the bay.\u201cOn the night of Tune 24-June 25 the Japanese torpedo boats re-approached the fortress, and at 4 am.the enemy began to cannonade from their vessels in Sai ping tao bay, directing their fire against the whole coast towards the north, from the bay to Mount Uit- Selo, and then attacked in great force, firstly, height number 131; secondly, height number 126.The latter were attacked by a mnall detachment landed for this purpose.These two heights were held by our riflemen, who, affer driving off three attacks with heavy losses, retired, and being pressed by the enemy sought refuge on the heights of Loun van tian.The enemy attacked this position in great force, employing at least a division, but all the assaults were repulsed.At 3.30 p.m.the Japanese appeared on the Port Arthur road in great strength and attacked Kwin shan (Guir san shan).The riflemen, who held the height with two battalions, retired.The Japanese turned them from the rear, losing heavily in the manoeuvre, Our torpedo were of \\wome assistance to us, advenciig _ on How our neighbors prepare for NE N > 2) the \u2018Glorious Fourth.\u2019\u2014Brooklvn \u2018Eagle.\u2019 Loun van tian, and

Japanese.Ther losses were evidently considerable.\u2018According to the latest advices, large columns of the enemy are marching from Dalny towards the village of Suan tsan hon and Khowin Moun£ains.SIEGE GUNS PLACED.Che foo, June 30.\u2014It is stated that the Japanese last Monday sent siege guns from Dalny to their position near Pot Arthur.These guns will be mounted in a fort now being erected, which will command the harbor, though it is outside the range of the Russian guns on Golden Hill.SHIP AND BATTERY DESTROYED.Sasebo, June 30.\u2014An officer who participated in the engagement states that there were women on board the Russian ehips.when.they made their recent un- suecessful attempt te escape from Port Arthur\u201d He says that the Rusian warship dunk was the battleship \u2018Pobieda.\u2019 A Battery on Lao ti shan promontory was destroyed by thé fire of the Japanese ships.PFLUG REPUDIATES.St.Petersburg, July 1.\u2014Major-General Pflug, telegraphing from Mukden under date of July 1, says: \u2018The reports from foreign sources that the Japanese fleet sank several vessels of our squadron on June 23, and that our loss included Rear Admiral Prince Ouktomsky and 700 sailors, are absolutely untrue\u2019 1 STEAMED OUT TO SEA.* \u2018At 2 p.m.the squadron, preceded by a flotilla of mine dredgers, torpedo boats and the \u2018Novik,\u201d steamed in line ahead towards the open sea, and having emerged without mishap, altered her course southward.The dredging boa\u2019s were sent back escorted by armed picke.boats.Two Japanese scouts, with a detachment of torpedo boats, watched the squadron all the while.Twenty miles from shore a Japanese squadron was sighted, steaming in divisions in line ahead.It was composed of four first- class battleships and one second-class battleship, four armored first-class cruisers, seven second-class and five third- class cruisers, one scout, one steamer, and thirty torpedo boats.As they ap- prpached the Japanese were seen to be preparing to place a division of cruisers and torpedo boats between the shore and our equadron in order that during the night they might force, by persistent tor- edo attacks, rome of our ships to reak their formation ,and in the morning engage us with all their ships.BACK TO PORT.\u2018Considering the enemy\u2019s force greatly superior to ours, and in view also of the Jarge number of Japanese torpedo boats, I decided to return to port, in order to act in accordance with circumstances, as this plan of action offered less risk of loss.At 7 p.m.our squadron started to return to port, which the enemy did not attempt to prevent.nor did they attempt to approach until ten o'clock, when the squadron reached the roadsted, where it cast anchor.At the same time the rearmost warship successfully repulsed two Japanese torpedo boat attacks.Notwithstanding the bright moonlight, the enemy continued their torpedo boat attacks in the roadstead until daylight, but were always successfully repulsed.TORPEDO BOATS SUNK.\u2018We found in the morning along \u2018he coast near the warships twelve Whitehead torpedoes which had been launched at lopg range.The torpedo boats were not allowed to approach nearer than twelve cable lengths.They attacked in groups.Two at least were sunk.Lhe bodies of a Japanese officer and two sailors were washed ashore in the morning.The successful repulse of the torpedo attacks in which several of the batteries shared, was facilitated by the searchlighte.In the morning all the ships entered Port Arthur at high tide.\u2018On June 27 there was a fusilade at 1 the Japanese outposts, due to the Japanese \"establishing themselves on the summit of Loan van tian, and bombarded - the shore.Yesterday evening the forts\u2019 batteries at Port Arthur opened fire on the Japanese torpedc boats.\u2019 (Continued on Page 8J NEWS IN BRIEF.\u2014 Admiral Alexeieff has sent in a report of the fight of the

let us give the new method a = 7 trial and it should soon be apparent iether it will tend to reduce the fire vaste of the country.And let not the fires should be extinguished by the use ot chemicals.Every up-to-date fire department has its chemical engines and babcocks.Why not go further, and, with suitable apparatus fight the fires by applying chemicals at the base of the ame?Everybody knows that certain chemicals will stitle a big blaze in almost no time if they can be applied, and surely the inventive genius of this age is equal to the demand.There are cases where a fluid extinguisher would be most serviceable and others where a drv powder would do the best work.I tancy that the reason chemicals are not more popular is partly owing to the lack of suitable apparatus for handling them and partly owing to the high prices at which they are sold by those who possess the rights of manufacture.Demonstrations have shown conclusively and often the effectiveness of chemical extinguishers and 1 believe if the citv would spend a few thousand dollars in providing chemicals instead of more water the citizens would be the gainers, many times over.B.Y.PYROGRAPHER.AN INSPECTOR\u2019S QUESTIONS.(To the Editor of the \u2018Witness.\u2019) Sir \u2014Your article in last Saturday's \u2018Witness\u2019 on this subject is, I imagine addressed primarily to the general insur ing public, and it is to be hoped that it may stimulate them into giving a little serious consideration to the matter.Judging by the past, however, abuse of re lessness and indifference, carelessness of owners afid architects in construction and of tenants in occupation, .fndiffer- ence by every one to inadequate water supplies, inefficient fire \u2018extinguishing 8p- aratus, insufficient numbers in she fire rigade, and last but not least, ineffective management and direction of the men and materials available.INSPECTOR.MOUNTAIN LAKE\u2014-FIRE RESERVOIR.Sir,\u2014One fire insurance man told me that a great need of the city was a sya tem of large water mains for fire fighting purposes, and his idea was to have the water in these mains kept at high pres sure by powerful pumps.Would it not be better to have a lake on top of the mountain where the swamp'is, just west of the Logk Out\u2019 A large body of water could be held there by a little excavating and a little damming.The lake would add a great charm to the park, and would occupy ground that has never been ueed except by tadpoles and small boys.Would a reservoir at this height not charge mains in the city at high pressure more \u2018reliably.and at less expense than a pumping station in the city could do?Is this not one of the advantages our mountain gives us over other cities?Räits \u2018and\u2019 melted snow would do some \u2018thing to keep the lake full, and a com.aratively small pump would do the rest.Hi \u2018might be possible to serve only the centre of the city and two or three outlying establishments in thie-way to begin wrth, but I think it would be well, if the underwriters would give a sufficient reduction in rates, to have a by-law passed requiring that all streets opene for drains of any kind and all streets, before re-paving, shall be laid with special fire mains at the time of such other improvement, The city could assess property- holders for these special mains if it secured more protection and sufficiently reduced insurance rates to the property- holders.I think the park should, in any case, have a lake in the place indicated or in the hollow south-west of the observatory.D.B.F.CITY INSURING CITIZENS.(To the Editor of the \u2018Witness.\u2019 Sir,\u2014Could not the city levy an insurance tax which would enable it to undertake to insure all property at, say, 80 percent of its assessed value, contracting with the big world-wide ingurance.companies to stand bebind it?The city supplies all the fire-fighting cost, and should have some of the profits that the insurance companies now pile up.1 do not know if it would work with one city, but several cities might form a mutual insurance corporation, and each back the other to a certain extent in case of large losses.MUTUAL.> WHAT IMPROVEMENTS?WHAT | REDUCTIONS?! - Sir \u2014Would not the city ask the underwriters to submit suggestions for the improvements they desire made to the ments and appliances, stating at the same, time the reduction they would make.ir the insurance rates for each specific ims provement made?If that were done\u2019 we would know better whether the underwriters are sincere in their contention that the present high rates are the result of deficient equipment.INSURED.A SUBJECT FOR DISCUSSION.(To the Editor of the \u2018Witness.\u2019) Sir,\u2014We greatly need in \u2018Montreal a board of arbitrators to which citizens could appeal to prevent their locality from being damaged by the erection of a greatly inferior building or by the introduction of an undesirable business or institution.There ie, as far as I know, very little to prevent a little paint shop opening up beside a valuable property and enormously increasing the cost of msurance to its big neighbor; or a butcher store or fish market might open up next door to a church, or in a residential block\u2014let us say, for example, in the Prince of Wales Terrace, between Peel and McTavish street.This thing is not right.No man should be able to depreciate the property in a neighborhood.There are many recent cases of neighborhoods being depreciated in this way and it is high time that the people should demand protection, VOX.A RED LIGHT SUGGESTION.(To the Editor of the \u2018Witness.\u201d) Sir,\u2014The frequent and disastrous fires which occur in our city lead one to ask whether further precautions could not be taken to lessen the number of contlagrations.There are frequently unnecessary delays in sounding the alarm and the fire has time to make headwav, especially at night.It must have occurred to many that this is often due to the fact that one does not know where to Tind the alarm-box.The terrified searcher goes up and down the street and loses much time while the fire is rapidly extending.Mr.Ferdinand Roy, piumb- er, residing at 705 Lariviere street, suz- gests to our Fire Commitee a device as the insurance companies may be expected to be the substance of the æublic's | view, and as one connected With the operations of one of these companies, 1 might in advance suggest a little consideration for the following questions: \u2014 1.Why have so many insurance companies failed in Canada during the past thirty years?; ; 2.Why have two English companies withdrawn from the Canadian field this 1) year?3.Why are all Canadian companies calling on their stockholders to put up more capital to replace what has been lost.4.Why are fires in North America more frequent and more disastrous than elsewhere in the world?.Now, leaving the general and getting to the particular: 5.Why are fires so frequent and expensive in Montreal?If the facts justify these questions, we need the assumptions in not ask why simple as it would be useful in helping to locate the alarm box.The suggestion 13 that the upper part of the globe of the arc light at every point where there 1s a box, be red.Then, looking up and down a street one could at once see these red globes and would know in wbat direction to go to sound the alarm.There is little doubt that this simple device would help in bringing the reels where they are required much quicker in many cases.lt would be worth while for insurance companies to give attention to Mr.Roy's suggestion.INTERESTED.CARE OF THE GRAVES.(To the Editor of the \u2018Witness.\u2019) Sir,\u2014May 1 ask, through your paper, if some of the money spent in beautifv- ing the entrance to Mount Royal ceme: tery might not be spent in keeping in a little better order the graves of those whose relatives are absent from the rates are eo high in the city and elsewhere, and as\u2019to the questions themselves, the answer in few words is care- city, and are therefore unable to see to them themselves, or in a case where the THE MONTREAL

the hend- Stones fall over and break, rendering it Impossible to see the names.Althougii J.think the flower beds, etc., at the entrance necessary I also think a little more should be spent on the graves.J.P TO SELL CITY PROPERTY.(To the Editor of the \u2018Witness.\u2019) Sir, \u2014l' understand that at the lest meeting of the City Council Ald.Vallieres gave notice of a motion to empower the Finance Committee to sell any city pro ferty they may deem it advisable to dispore of.Another resolution wus presented recently proposing the reconsideration of the decision arrived at some time ago not to sell the site of the old St.Gabriel market and tire station in Centre street.Now, I would like to know what scheme is bebind all this.The vague form of the motions and the fact that there has been no public demand for these things make me believe that there is some scheme behind the \u2018project.As for the Centre street pro- y, may we not hope that it will preserved as a breathing spot for the residente of the neighborhood.It 418, I understand, the only plot of ground in the ward that is o by the city and could be used as a park.Small as it is, it is better than none, and can, at no great cost, be made both useful and ettractive.i hope we are not about to be\u2019 robbed of it, but fear, at the same time, I shall.wake up some fine morning to find that it wil have \u2018been taken; from the public and the proceeds applied, as has been significantly said, \u2018where it will do the most good.\u2019 LITTLE BOY.PARK IMPROVEMENT.(To the Editor of the \u2018Witness.\u201d) Sir,\u2014I wish to offer these few suggestions for the improvement of the public park and playground in the vicinity of Fletcher's Field.In the southern corner of this park there is an old quarry which, as it is of no use as a quarry, is being filled up with all kinds of rubbish.Could this not be made, at very little cost, into\u2019 a shallow lake, which, as there is no water in that vicinity at all, would improve the look of the park and form an amusement for children if they were allowed to sail boats in it as in \u2018Westmount.I understand that some time ago efforts were made to have a lake of this description dug at the foot of the mountain, and as the cost of this would be very.much greater than the one Il propose, I do not think the latter should be totally disregarded.This field forms a natural hollow about the size of a good-sized skating rink, where the brigade inspection was held by Lord Dun- donald.If this were levelled and flooded in the fall I think it would make as good a free open-air skating rink in winter as it.is a playground ia summer.v A PLEA FOR THE CAT.(To the Editor of the \u2018Witness.\u2019) Sir,\u2014Now that the schools are closed, many of the boys and girls are preparing gleefully to spend their vacation at some seaside or mountain resort.But what of their pets, especially the poor kitty?Do you know that thousands of people go off for their good times and make no provision for their cats during their absence.Poor pussy is left homeless and friendless, and often has a hard time to get enough to eat.Does anything look more dejected and forlorn than a stray cat?I am sure it is thoughtlessness that leads so many people into this form of \u2018cruelty to animals,\u2019 and perhaps calling attention to the matter may ensure that some provision be made for the house cat during the out-of-town season.eaten HERR HEINRICH BRUENING.Professor Herr Heinrich Bruening has joined the teaching staff: of the Montreal Conservatory of Music,

makes an offer of marriage.The father, after weighing the matter carefully\u2014for a refusal is likely to provoke a long and bloody feud\u2014in turn waits upon the priests and acquaints them with the nature of the offer, at the same time paying to them a munificent bribe in order to secure the answer of the deities as to whether the marriage should be entered into.The wife-seeker, whould be

ALEXEIEFF ON JUNE 23.St.Petersburg, July 1.\u2014The first detailed official account of the engagemeht at Port Arthur on June 23 and 24, nas been received in the form of a des- atch from Admiral Alexeieff, dated une 30.It says:\u2014A report received to-day from the acting commander at the Port Arthur squadron states that on the night of June 23 eight torpede boats were despatched to guard tne roadstead seven miles southward.They repulsed the enemy's teorepdo boats, which had approached.During the action Commander Elisseien, Lieut.Smar- noff, and two bluejackets were wounded.All the torpedo boats returned towards morning.At 8 o'clock the \u2018Novik/ \u2018Diana,\u2019 \u2018Askold,\u2019 \u2018Sevastopol,\u2019 \u2018Poltava,\u2019 \u201cTsarevitch,\u201d \u2018Pobieda,\u201d \u2018Peresviet,\u2019 \u2018Ret- vizan,\u201d \u2018Bayan\u2019 and \u2018Pallada\u2019 steamed into the roadstead in line ahead and anchored.Two Japanese floating mine?having been seen in the roadstead the squadron remained at anchor.Meanwhile, several small boats which had been searching for mines discovered and exploded ten on the eastern side of the roadstead.An examination of these showed that they probably had been laid during the night by two of the enemy\u2019s torpedo boats, which had approached the port.\u2019 BATTLE RUMOR.London, July 2, 4 a.m.\u2014The most important new story from the war area 18 a report of a naval battle south of Port Arthur.It rests entirely on the authority of the captain and crew of an unarmedmbwy bgk qbg kgk qbgkag an unnamed German steamer which has arrived at Chefoo from Niu chwang.They locate the scene of the battle about forty miles north of Chefoo, which would make it approximjate the same distance from Port Arthur.They claim that they plainly saw the flashes of the guns of the opposing ships although onlv the Japanese vessels were visible.The time is stated to have been 1 p.m.Assuming the story to be true, it is supposed here that the Russians have again tried what they failed to achieve on June 23, either to join the Vladivostok squadron or to reach a neutral port to ensure their altimate safety.The probability that they deliberately assailed the Japanese is regarded as precluded in view of the admission of inferior strength contained in Admiral Alexeieff\u2019s despacch, It 18 therefore to be assured that the Japanese lay in wait to engage the Ruesians instead of driving them into Port Arthur as they did on June 23.VLADIVOSTOK FLEET.IT SINKS TWO SHIPS.London, June 30.\u2014An official despatch from Tokio

I called it forth and drew into your service a hardy and intrepid race of men; these men, in the last war, were brought to combat on your side; they served with fidelity as they fought with valor and conquered for you in every quarter of the world.\u201d \u2018Gentlemen, impress upon your children the great traditional spirit of Scottish loyalty\u2014loyalty to their King and to the empire, ag well as loyalty to the country in which they live.Unless the British empire is supported by the loyalty of all er children, ungrudgingly given and without reservation, that empire must pass away, and with it will also pass away those liberties which, possessing, you may little consider; but which, ence lost, you may never ain.\u2018Beware, gentlemen, repeat, beware of that silent, yet insidious, weakening of the ties which is more da than an open and declared hostility, \u2018In strengthening the links which bind our great empire together, you are in reality\u2019 also permanently consolidating this magnificent domain, with ite west upon the shores of the Pacific, its east upon the shores of the Atlantic, with ip.terests perbaps more or less divergent, yet welded and bound together by a common loyalty, and which, in its entirety, should be the heritage of your ahildren and your children\u2019s children for generations untold.~ _\u2018l shall ever esteem your kind expressions in regard for me, and shall derive no small consolation when I take my departure from this beautiful country of.Canade from the recollection of the kindly thoughts you entertain and the kindly faces which surround me here to-day.\u2019 Lord Dundonald was given another ovation as he resumed his seat.rectory THE OATH OF SUCCESSION.IMPORTANT RESOLUTION CARRIED IN THE HOUSE OF LORDS.London, July 2\u2014The question of altering the oath of sovereign, which ocoupied the House of night, came up on the Duke of Norfolk\u2019s resmolution that the oath ould be amended so as not to include addréss to Lord Dundonald, succession taken by the.of settlement.If common ground could be reached between Protestants and Roman Catholics, the glad to see an inquiry instituted.DOMINION DAY IN LONDON.NOTABLE SPEECHES BY NOTABLE MEN AT BANQUET IN HOTEL CECIL._ (Cemadien Associated Press.)

The walls of the aty were made of appetizing eatabjes, the rafters of sausages, the roofs of lard, an! the lathes of barley sugar.A river ran through the city, flowing with red wine on the one side and white on the other, and three times a week it rained custards.Life was one long fete; quarrels and wars were unknown.Whenever a lady began to feel her years, and to equivocate concerning her age, she had nothing more to do than to \u2018take the waters,\u201d and she became young again.Another Greek author added a few suc- eulent details, declaring that in Cock- signe cakes and bread fought for entry down the stranger\u2019s throat, and the fish carie to the house ready fried\u2014a phan- taoy which tbe Romans capped by vowing that the little sucking pigs ran about the streets ready roasted.Thus it will be seen that the prevailing impression concerning the people of this land was twofold\u2014that they lived in miraculous plenty, and that they were lazy, pampered mortals, allowed by Heaven to reap without sowing, and belie the stern saying that he that will not work shall not eat.The word \u2018cockney\u2019 then, may have come from either of two words, the Dutch \u2018kokelner\u2019 or the Fremch \u2018coque- liner,\u201d meaning to pamper, or the alleged low-Latin word \u2018coquinatus,\u2019 à kitchen- knave or cupboard lover.With contin} ental peoples The Englishman, and therefore the Londoner, as the native par excellence, has always been noted for his fondness for esting, and thus the word may have been originally pee} French perhaps\u2014to the \u20ac in that land of plenty called London.Our capital was in past centuries famous for its riches and feasting, just as a citv benquet even to this day implies the typical \u2018dinner of dinners.\u2019 On the other hand, the word mav bave been applied by the hardy people of the English provinces in ridicule of the lazy denizens of the city who led such luxurious lives, with every form of self-imdulgence that civilization had then devised.We know that the word, whatever its origin, was applied te the Londoner at an early period in our his tory, and there is extant an order issued by Henry VIII.in 1517, showing that the citizens then kept a yearly feast at which a monarch called \u2018the King of the Cockneys\u2019 presided.At what precise date the definition of a cockney became proverbial we cannot say, but it was generally accepted for many gen erations that to be a true citizen of Cockaigne one must be born within the sound of Bow Bells, the anciznt church which stood in the centre of the city, and the bells of which could, no doubt, be heard further in those times of comparative quiet than they can now.The nickname then signified indifferently a man with a certain very marked accent, or simply one who was iggorant of country life and customs; and this definition has held its own, down to our time.But it is strange to read in an old magazine of sixty years back, that \u2018every day lessens the number of Londqners to whom such circumscribed notions can be fairly attributed.The spread of knowledge has dispelled his prejudices, aud the locomotive advantages of steam have enlarged his sphere of actual nb- servation.Frhe cockney is fast becomina à character of past tune, and cockneyism is a matter of history.\u201d The truth is in ome respects quite the opposite ; the treinendous advance of industrialism, which (as Mr.H.G.Wells so trulv voted out in \u2018Anticipation\u2019) has caus- «1 \u2018Be zrentest social changes yet known In \u201cur history as a nation, has enabled the cockney to be multiplied a #housand- fold.Un%] a hundred years ago Ens Innd resembled France, in that there was only one great city in the kingdom; now there are a dozen, and wherever men gather together in such enormous niasses the immense pressure thus set in irrre brings about changes in the nature the unit which may be generally de- svribed as a cockneyfying process.The new characteristics thus produced are wore subtle in their nature than those attributed to the cockneys of old.Sam Weller, for instance, may perhaps be fairiy taken as a type of the early Vic- toffan cockney, but, although isolated syecimens of Wellerism may be found to-day, the race as a race is fast becom- nz extinet, and will probably pass away ith the buses.Something the same suay be said of Mr.Winkle, the cockney = artsman, who is dead and forgotten t ervwhere.{ o\u2018kneyiam is ne longer a topographi- \"fact, but a particular tendency of rracter.A man may live in the city, merely from ten till four, but all ~v, and all his life, yet he may pos- \u201csy longings and ideals which redeem m from any suspicion of cockneyism; may #bile on the other band a villager pass from cradle to coffin far from the busy baunts of men and yet be a cockney in posse, lacking only the opportunity to develop himself.Both these exceptions are rare, perhaps, but they can and do exist.The new cockney, if we may call him so, has acquired at least a superficial knowledge of the country and of sport; but none the less his citified nature 18 strongly in contrast with those Englishmen who have, as it were, kept in touch with the soil.He still enjcws much greater luxury, and (after a certain level has been reached) earns his living more easily, so that some of the old meaning clings to his nickname.But it has accumulated others, as, in the natural order of things, every type of mankind becomes more complex with the development of civilization.He still thinks London the centre, and not only the centre but aleo the measure of the universe; he has inevitably come to believe in speed rather than in thoroughness, In smartness rather than strict honesty.He thus sees many things in false perspective; he ludicrously over-es- timates the value of money, and the importance of caste and other social distinctions.He is in danger of losing sight of men\u2019s primal needs of existence, and, in the struggle for the uppermost which is naturally more acute in crowd- masses of men, his heart is apt insensibly to harden against the gentler content.He may or may not be su: perior on the whole to the countrifie man.Perhaps he can with justice be said to rise higher at his best, and sink lower at his worst.Thus the word \u2018cockney,\u2019 as will be seen, has travelled far since first it took its birth in the land of Cockaigne, the secular Canaan, flowing with red wine and white.Now it is best represented by \u2018the man in the street,\u201d who looks down in scorn on all that is not within his narrow sphere of knowledge and understanding as a towna- man, on all that is primitive, and slow, and unambitious, commercially unprofitable, unpretentious, and quiet It is to be ho! that the cockney\u2019s next incarnation will be on a still higher vlane.\u2014 London \u2018Standard.\u2019 WOLVES INCREASING IN NUMBER.LARGE AMOUNTS STILL PAID BY WESTERN STATES IN BOUNTIES.(From the \u2018 Field and Stream.\u2019) The wolf is more dreaded of humanity than any other animal.No doubt we of to-day inherit that dread from ancestors who had occasion to fear the long-fang- ed quadruped, \u2018for there are few portions of the world to-day where the wolf is really dangerous to mankind.nge: -Pangerous to otre to his herds and flocks, he PO deg in many portions of the co try.À ranch in Montana or New México may pay many bundreds of dollars a year for gray wolf scalps.Such a scalp is cheap at twelve dollars or fifteen dollars to the rancher, for the gray robber would certainly have destroyed many times that value in calves or colts trom the range.Yet in spite of all the warfare made upon them, and all the prices put upon their heads, these dreaded, mysterious, ghostlike, terror-inspiring creatures still hold their own.Outcasts for ages, hated, persecuted, they still endure, each for himself, and without a friend on earth, even among his pwn kind.Last year the State of Minnasota paid over $6,000 a month in the best of the wolf season.One day of the month of last March the state auditor paid $6, 158.50 in wolf bounties.: The total for the few months preceding was $38,548.50.On this basis the current year will foot up nearly as much as the two years preceding, which appears to indicate that Brother Wolf ,1s holding his own, even as a matter of commerce.In many parts of the western cattle range the ay wolves are increasing rather than ecreasing.NATURE SOMETIMES CURES CANCER (London \u2018Mail.\u2019) \u2018Show us what cancer is, and we will very quickly learn to be able to prevent it, and 1 am quite sure \u2018we shall be able to cure \u2018it.We are as blind men groping in the dark.\u2019 In these words Dr.Pearce Gould made a striking appeal for help for the Middlesex Hospital.Was there any hope of discovering the real nature of the disease?maid Dr.Gould.He would say in the strongest way that there was.They had been trying for centuries to discover some cure for the malady, and his reason for making that statement was that there were many cases of cancer which got well spontaneously.The importance of that fact was great.The fact that nature, without aid, completely and forever removed this disease absolutely proved that it was not in a category by itself, and they had every reason to hope that the disease could be cured.er STRAW FOR HATS A HUNDRED YEARS AGO.(From \u2018St.Nicholas.) In the early part of the last century there were fewer factories in this country than now, and many things were made by hand which to-day are the work of machinery.This was especially true of the braid for straw hats.Rye straw wad commonly used, although wheat was also in demand.But the rye straw had longer stems and was more easily handled.; In driving along the country roads, in Massachusetts particularly, late in the summer, one would see great bundles of the straw hanging on the fences to dry.When the sun and wind had done their share of the work, it was placed in casks where sulphur was burning until it was bleached to a pale yellow.Then it was split into marrow widths suitable for braiding.[RES a 4 sentiments that abide with humility and\u2019 MONTREAL SATURDAY, JULY 2 1904 GYANTSE.An Imposing Looking Place.INTERESTING DESCRIPTION OF THE \u2018JONG.\u2019 The \u2018Times\u2019 correspondent, writing from Gyantse, says that the first view of that place is imposing.One turas the second or third spur from Naini, and across the wide, \u2018level plain, cultivated in little irregular patches as closely as an English county, the high-wailed peak from which the town gets its name rises six hundred feet.From the first the jong fills the eye, and it is not until one 13 close that the low, white, two-storied bouses of the town are seen at its foot, nestling under the protection of the battlements and bastions of the great precipitous fortress.So great is the mass of masonry and sun-dried bricks with which the steep and isolated hill is crownad that it is a matter of some surprise that it has received scanty or no attention from the wise there is no decoration.But, when one enters, the luxury that has been de- pied to the central figure is seen to be lavished on the ornaments that strew the kyilkor or altar shelves beneath the Buddha, One great wrought steel dhorten with chased courses and tur Quoise and \u2018gold ornamentation stands out among a crowd of lesser ones of rass or silver.antique ivories from India, vases with peacock feathers, and great brass and copper lamps.ese p&-are perhaps the most striking ornament of \u2018a Buddihet shrine.Sometimes single, there may be dozens and even hundreds, each composed of a wide and deep bowl of hesped-up butter, in which, floating in a little pool which ita own warmth has made, burns a single wick with a small yellow flame.Thess are the last things that the priests will take away.If they fear looting, they will hide every other ornament, replacing them\u2019 by the strange many-colored erections of butter (torma), which they mould with extraordinary dexterity into conventional structures, sometimes five feet and six feet high.But the lamps must and do remain, whatever the risk, and one of the pleas brought forward few travellers who have beneath it.Manning, indeed, in 1811, refers to yesterday by.the.Abbot of Kyangtse was that a fine to be paid in butter might %

perceptible at a distance, and the apparent strength of the huge towers and curtains which overhang the almost precipitous rock would, one thinks, have impressed the most incurious of observers among whom Manning, the only Englishman who has ever reached Lhas- sa, is unfortunately to be placed.Even in its present condition a week's siege and a couple of \u2018hundred casualties would have been the price of any attempt on our part to take the successive defences by storm in the face of the slightest real opposition.Leaving the town at the south-eastern corner of the rock\u2014which æ four hun- drad or five hundred yards in length\u2014 one makes one\u2019s way the zigzag ap~ proach hewn out of the side of the ochreous quartz-seamed sandstone.The\u2018 roadwey leads up to the first great gateway after running the gauntlet of a large detached bastion built against the flank of the almost perpendicular stone.In the deep recess of the gateway it self\u2014which is partly supported by two stout wooden pillars and is of no great strength\u2014there hang from the ceiling four huge stuffed carcases of dongs or wild yaks, with artificial eyes and tongues protruding in a fearsome way.But the beasts are fslling to pieces from age, and rather resemble badly-stitched leather bags than anything else.Everything that can fall from them\u2014hair.horns, hoofs\u2014has already fallen, and handfuls of the straw stuffing bulge out from every seam.The road zigzags upwards again, protected by a rough breastwork in which recent repairs and new loopholes are obvious every few yards.The latter are \u2018splayed\u2019 on the inside, contrasting strongly with the old useless little slits which only allow a defender to fire straight in front of him.Higher up, beside some houses, which are falling rapidly to pieces, is a new and well-built barrack storeroom, in which thousands of pounds of powder, hundreds of tons of supplies, and tens of miles of matchlock fuse were found.Another hundred paces brings one to the door of the most interesting series of rooms remaining in the jong.Darkened by the blocking up of their windows, one cellar-like low room leads into another\u2014home little chapels, some living rooms, some store-rooms.Out of these one comes into a little court with a rotten wooden ladder and a loyal dirty grey watchdog who exhibits more pluck than his flying masters did.At the top of the latter a step to the left takes one into a small yard, one end of which is occupied by a little gompa or temple.Looking in from the sun- ligbt one can just distinguish the great dull gold figure and smiling placid countenance of the Master whose presentment no superstition or latitude can either deface or materially change.Whatever stage in art his devotees may have reached, the great teacher\u2019s own image remains the same from Japan to Jave, and the gaudy \u2018katags\u2019 or ceremonial scarves hide in Gyantse as severely simple a design as you may find at Kame- kura or Mandalay.One 'arge turquoise supplies the ever-present bump wine ¥ (13000 feel above * occupied .by it as \u201ca sort of castle on the top of 4 | Te sea level) Village Britleh - \u2018

well known that the British never interfered with the religion of the countries inte which they made their way.Outside this little orange-walled gom- pa were five pots in which bloomed courageously own plants of simple English stocks: It was a curious shock to see them there.How they came there it would be useless to guess, but surely never before did stocks justify so well Maeterlinck\u2019s eulogy of these little flowers that \u2018sing among ruined walls and cover with light the grieving stones.\u2019 For up above the gompa rise the great towers and buildings which lead up to the topmost structure on the very edge of the precipice which confronts the lamassery to the north; and they are all roofless shells of stone which quiver in the light afternoon wind.It will be neceseary to destroy a amall part of the fortifications overlooking the new home of the mission a thousand yards away in a plantation of trees near the river and the bridge.The explosion will probably bring down at the same time the larger part of the buildings on the very crest of the hill, and this is perhaps the last note that can ever be written of Gyangtse as it now is\u2014a Corfe Castle of ten times the size, on a hill ten times as.high.From the castle a fine view is to be had pf the great lanmssery of Pal-khor Choide, which stretches on the slope of a southerly spur facing the jong a quarter of à mile away, protected by a long crimson wall from the assaults of the prevailing north-west wind.There are two curious things about this monastery.First, although it is subject to Lhasa, and therefore nominally a Gelukpa or Yellow-cap foundation, it contains representatives of nearly all the recognized sects in Lamaism, which are numerous and jealous of their own distinct existence, though not vitally opposed to each other in doctrine.A curious point is that when the Red-caps in Pal-kho Choide worship with the Gelukpas they make the not inconsiderable concession of wearing the yellow cap instead of their own distinctive red one.The other point which is of a little interest is the legend that the great chor- ten or vihara outside the central temple was copied from the well-known temple at Buddha-Gaya long before the restorer\u2019s hand had obscured some of the characteristic features of the latter.This legend is, as à matter of fact, whollv untrue.There is hardly any similarity between the two buildings.Chandra Das calls the architecture of the Gyang- tse building unique.In a way this is true, but the lower part represents fairly well on a minute scale\u2014the whole base is only a hundred and twenty feet each way\u2014the great vihara of Joro-Bodoer in the middle of Java.There is the same number of balustraded terraces, and the sides of each contracting stage are broken by square projections in a similar way.Perhaps a plain cross with a square imposed upon.it will give y better idea of the ground plan of-each story of this very sacred chorten.Each projection or angle contains a small chapel.The upper part of the structure consists of a large white drum with four grotesquely-ornamated doorways of a Burmese type, and a thirteen-ringed cone surmounted by a \u2018htee\u2019 and fiucal decorated with leaf-clapper bells is also suggestive of Burma.The upper part is thickly ornamented with gold leai, and the gilt copper plates composing the rings are each decorated with two incised figures of Buddha.The lower part of this pagoda\u2014which is generally white \u2014iR roughly decorated here and there with color in an effective way, and the Interior walls and passages are painted with microscopic finish, in some medium that produces an enamel-like surface.As one leaves the chorten and enters the main temple, an exquisitely-painted \u2018Wheel of Life\u2019 (if we may accept the rough translation which Rudyard Kipling\u2019 borrowed for \u2018Kim\u2019 from Colonel Waddell, of the Indian Medieal Service) meets the eye to the left of the doorway leading from the vestibule to the centrai apartment.It is difficult to convey any idea of the minute finish of this piece of work.A few will realize it when I say that it is probably the only product of man\u2019s brush which rivals the \u2018Book of Kells\u2019 or the \u2018Lindisfarne Gospels.\u201d Up in a balcony above there is exquisite work, but upon this circle the artist has lavished an obvious affection and care which must be seen to be believed.In style it resembles thirteenth century illuminations, but, for example, no vision of hell was ever drawn with such amazing delicacy and strength of line as are the quaint tortures of the damned in this representation of the Buddhist Sheol.Inside the central erim- son-villared hall the only conspicuous object is the great seated figure of the next Buddha to be reincarnated.He is, an always, seated in European fashion, a tradition which is more suggestive than most modern Buddhist legends, and instinctively recalls the belief of Lamaism that the end of the present age will be in the hands of the Piling or Western foreigner.In a recess on each of three sides of the central hall are great seated images of the Buddha.Sakya-muni himself is surrounded in the dark northern chapel by half-eeen gigantic standing statues of Egyptian massiveness and simplicity, almost touching each other as they line the walls, and looming out of the obscurity with dignity and no small dramatic effect.To the left of the vestibule is a curious chamber of horrors.It is reported to be sufficient to overawe the most insubordinate of Lamas, tut the decaying stuffed beasts that hung from the roof and the dingy demons painted on the walls were scarcely as horrible as | the common blue and scarlet guardians of religion who protect the entrance to every gompa.A dragon's skin was pointed out to me.It waa, perhaps, no bad imitation.Allowing for contraction, the python which once owned this covering must have been at lesist twenty-five feet -lorg and\u2019 fifteen inches in diamsten Ghawmarmour, bows, quivers, flags, painted.cloth, skins, a few old guns £nd spears, and a few little untidy altars, from which, as from every other shrine we visited in the lamassery, every orna- ment- except the lamps had been taken and hidden away in terror, and, of course, dirt everywhere completed the furniture of this dismal chamber.But there remained many more temples and apartments, from the inspection of few of which we were excused by the talkative and, apparently, perfectly friendly Lamas.\u2014\u2014\u2014ase.MALACCA STRAITS SUPERSTITION.Along the Malacca Straits the Malays still believe that many beasts are sacred, and they are particularly impressed with the belief that the crocodile is a spirit of the water.Therefore, these ugly monsters -are not only extremely plentiful there, but they are so daring \u2018that they make most the waterways dangerous even for persons in boats.The Englishmen who dwell in \u2018hat part of the country declare that hardly a week passes without the killing of a native by a crocodile.The brute swims slowly - along behind the rude, flimsy canoes and fugouts used there and suddenly switches his terrible tail around in such a way as to sweep the man out of the boat into the water.Here and there along the banks of the black rivers will be seen strips of white cloth and baskets full of fruit and rice, attached to trees or sapplings close to the water.These are offerin made by the natives to some crocodile that has his haunt just under the bank.Now and then, however, a crocodile becomes so ferocious and kills so muny persons that even the superstitious natives feel it necessary to dispatch him.Then they use an ingenious and curious method.They make a small bamboo raft about three feet square, and to this they attach a long rope, made of loosely-pleated cotton.At the end is a huge hook, to the shank of which they tie a live chicken.They set the chicken on the raft and shove it out into the stream.The poor fowl cackles and screams, trying to release itself from the line: this attracts the crocodile, who darts at it and gulps it down.The next moment the raft bobs below the surface.The villagers follow the course of thé raft as it goes down stream, and afte.a dav or two, when the crocodile has wearied himself thoroughly by his struggles, they paddle out and haul it in.The crocodile comes ashore without much fighting, and is killed with ease, It is very rare for a crocodile to es cape once he has swallowed the bait, for the hook goes deep into hie stomach, and the loosely-pleated rope is so roft that the brute\u2019s teeth have no effect on it.The sewing of buttons on shoes and on garments is no longer done by hand in modern factories.There is a machine that sews 5,300 buttons on garments in nine hours\u2014or more than eight expert sewers could possibly do in the same dom on\u2019

By the Browning cult no rarity is more prized than tbat \u2018Fragment of a Confession,\u2019 otherwise \u2018Pauline,\u2019 Tirst published in 1833.At Sotheby's recently a perfect copy of this poem appeared, and, although one brought nearly two hundred pounds a few years ago, no one was prepared for the final bid of three hundred and twenty-five pounds which Mr.Maggs made against the American commissioner, \"Mr.B.F.Stevens.The book is inscribed \u2018J.Dykes Campbell, Esq.from his obliged and grateful friend Robert Browning, 12 Warwick Crescemt, W., March 6, \u201986,\u2019 and is further in the original boards, uncut, and with the rare paper label.Browning wrote the poem, it may be recalled, when he was twenty years of age, or, as he afterwards explained, when the subject of the poem was of that age.Hence the Latin abbreviation used by him \u2018V.A.XX.\u2019 (xixi annos viginti).Browning students will be aware when \u2018Pauline\u2019 was inserted in his collected works, the whole of the punctuation was recast, a change which, it is urged, rendered clear and simple several passages which had before seemed somewhat involved.Er ER IY -.14 | THE MONTREAL DAILY WITNESu SarurpAYy, Jury 7, J9C4 LITERARY REVIEW.\u201cWESTWARD THE STAR OF EMPIRE\u201d \u2018Between Winnipeg and Chicago, choose quickly, England!\u201d The main import of one of the most Canadian books ever written is obviously not for Canada.And not for Canadian appreciation, in the firat degree, is the intimate picture of the life of an Ontario town.How picturesque it must all be to dwellers in England! But the dignified, self-made merchant, the pert yet sensible school-girl, the hearty, slangy editor of the country paper are well known to us here.They are almost too real to be interesting.Four characters do stand out in Mrs.Everard Cotes\u2019s fine story of \u2018The Imperialist\u201d (D.Appleton & Co.), and among these the one valuable as a symbol of our national hopes, is the \u2018Imperialist\u2019 himself.Attracting attention as a youthful lawyer of much ability, Lorne Murchison goes to England a¥ secretary to a dele gation\u2014here fiction begins to tread on the skirts of history and we see at once Chamberlain disguised as \u2018Walling- ham\u2019 and the High Commissioner as \u2018Lord Selkirk.\u201d The idea of a united Empire stirs young Murchison\u2019s imagi- pation and he comes back to preach it, preventing his own election to parliament by the prominence he gives to this theoretic subject while his constituency want local topics.Along with his earnest idealism and his manfully accepted disappointment, we get his simple love- story, a negative story quickly told.The most stylish young lady in town accepts his ring but will not wear it, putting off on one pretext or another the formal engagement, till he hears, just when defeated in politics, that he is defeated in love as well.The impression left on us is that of a strong man and one whose future attempts to serve his country will be attended by the success they deserve.Yet this clear impression only comes in the last chapter.The young man\u2019s character, as we follow it out from the beginning of the book, is still in the making.One of its most attractive elements is his pride in the worthy father, prosperous, reticent, intelligent, who has given him advantages far be- wond his own.Sons like this, both fortunate and kind, are doubtless the most typical class of English-speaking Canadians.Less happy is the daughter who has oufgrown her mother.Lorne\u2019s sister Advena falls in love with a young Scotch minister, who turns out to be engaged to some one else.At the first their conversation, like most in this book, is all of the Empire.Advena complains of the crudities of her \u2018cour- try, and finally speaks of its compense - tions: \u2018The scope of the individual, his chance of self-respect, unhampered by the traditions cf class, which either deaden it, or irritate it, In England! His chance of significance and success! And the splendid buoyant, unused air to breathe, and the simplicity of lite, and the plenty of things.\u2019 \u2018I am to be consoled because apples are cheap.\u2019 \u2018You are to be consoled for a hundred reasons.Doesn't {t console you to feel under your very feet the forces that are working to the immense amelioration of a not altogether undeserving people?\u201d \u2018No,\u201d sald Advena, rebellliousy, \u2018and, in- © @eed, he had been a trifle didactic to her grievance.They laughed together, and then with a look at her in which observation seemed suddenly to awake, Finlay said: \u2018And those things aren't all, or nearly ail.1 sometimes think that the human spirit, as it is set free in these wide unblemished spaces, may be something more pure and sensitive, more sincerely

Cure any Kidney Disease.Toronto, Ont., July 1.\u2014(Special).\u2014Ae the people learn to realize how much the eneral health depends on keeping the fidneys right, and how many diseases are the direct result of bad kidney action every verified cure of a severe kidney disease is received with interest.For that reason the case of A.W.Holman, the well-known butcher of 193% Mutual street, this city, is well worthy of attention.Mr.Holman had Diabetes.Now he is a well man.Dodd's Kidney Pills cured it.Asked concerning his case, Mr.Holman said: \u2014 \u2018Yes, I had Diabetes for six years.| tried all kinds of remedies but to no use.My attention was called to Dodd\u2019s Kidney Pills by an advertisement and I began to use them.1 only used six boxes when I was completely cured.As it is conceded that what will cure Diabetes will cure any Kidney Disease jt must be admitted that Dodd's Kidney Pills will cure any Kidney Disease.ce He broke oft, still gazing at her,as if she had been an idoa and no more.In the dilemma that follows Finlay\u2019's realization that a woman he hardly knows is coming from Scotland to marry him while his heart is in Advena\u2019s keeping, it is Advena who presses a solution of the case, as short-sighted as may be.It is the gratifying of their love to the extent of continuing their friendship, though Finlay must keep his promise to the other woman when the time comes.The gradual recession of love before the claims of honor seems to her a noble kind of sacrifice.\u2018Isn't there something that appeals to you,\" she said, \u2018in the thought of just leaving it, all unsaid and all undone, a dear and tender projection upon the future that taded\u2014a lovely thing we turned away trom, until one day it was no longer there?\u2019 This most high-minded of follies runs its course until the coming of the Scotch woman.\u2018Robust and pleasant, with a practical eye on her promising future, she had arrived, the fulfilment of des pair.\u2019 Highminded the situation remains, even when Advena casts herself at her lover\u2019s feet, begging him not to marry the other, there is a sense that she is not off her balance morally but only sentimentally.The note of lawlessness in feeling, which this author can so subtly convey is conspicuously absent, and no patriot will complain of the lack.The free manners and innocent ideals of all the young people are indeed pleasantly emphasized.Attention is also called to the sterling qualities of the kind of people this country draws from Britain, and especially from Scotland.The young minister who gets into such a coil of circumstances is nevertheless no recreant to his calling or his conscience.He is a curious character, foolish, indeed, but not essentially weak.The older minister who directs his work is a mode] of humorous benevolence.Hinding the Scotch lady very suitable to himself in age and disposition, he intervenes in the role of a more wealthy suitor, and makes the young people happy in their own despite.The humors involved in this turn of things, and the humors of the election, such as Finigan's cat bought by one of the candidates for five dollars, are all needed in a novel dealing so determinedly with politics.1t has, perhaps.hardly the artistic quality that might have been expected, but much of it 18 worth rereading.LITERARY NOTES.Two books issued recently by Metheun & Co.and Adam and Charles Black are on the same subject, that of the New Forest, the tract of land planted and set apart more than a thousand years ago, and still fresh with the joyful renewal of every spring.The more pretentious volume is by Mr.Horace G.Hutchinson, and the smaller by Mrs.Willingham Rawnsley.Both are well illustrated, the latter in color, and both carry a name- lesg fascination into the thoughts of their readers, Mrs.Rawnsley's being even more successful in this particular than the other, for she has lived there herself, and that fact covers everything.The feeling of the people who live in the New Forest towards it is something more than love, it is adoration, it is worship, and no publication which cannot rely on this potent charm will ever entirely satisfy any but the outsiders.Mr.Hutchinson has studied well his subject, and his book has come near being an ideal one, but he has not been a \u2018forester\u2019 himself.With its delightful illustrations it will be a treasure for all who are fortunate enough to possess a copy.The chapters on the \u2018Forest Laws\u2019 and \u2018Courts of the Forest\u2019 are full and interesting, after which comes the general history, in which are discussed William the Conqueror\u2019s reasons for laying out the land as a personal hunting ground.That thirty-six abbey churches were dispossessed in order to provide space has been amply disproved, the country being too poor to have ever sustained so many.Cattle-raising and grazing has now taken the place of the deer, which formerly haunted the sylvan shades, and the open glades are said to present a rich, velvety green, due to the constant cropping of the grass.Mr.Hutchinson very rightly devotes considerable space to the manor of Beau- lieu, which is in the forest bounds, but does not belong to the Crown.The remains of the old Cistercian Abbey are of surpassing interest and its surroundings of great beauty.Buckler\u2019s Hard, on the Beaulieu river, now a picturesque, grass- grown hamlet, admirably pictured in this very book by Mr.Tyndale, was a hundred years ago one of the chief shipbuilding yards of the country.Many fine men-of- war were launched from its elips, and the records in connection with it are of the greatest interest.There one can still see the shipwrights\u2019 cottages and the master-builder\u2019s house with the large room built to accommodate the guests who poured in from all sides to see the launch of a battleship.Nelson probably lunched there, and George IV.certainly, for a salute was fired in his honor from the \u2018Agamemnon\u2019 while she was still on the slips.Buckler\u2019s Hard certainly deserves mention in a chapter dealing exclusively with Beaulieu, We have left ourselves little space for mention of the delightful pictures which we may be allowed to say, without detriment to Mr.Hutchinson\u2019s labor, supply the chief charm of the book.Miss Kemp-Welch confines herself to the forest ponies.She has been called the English Rosa Bonheur, and deserves the compliment.For Mr.Tyndale\u2019s drawings, for the most part admirably reproduced in their original colors, no praise could be too high.They convey, as no words can do, the varied charms of the New Forest.In his latest book, \u2018Extracts from Adam\u2019s Diary, Mark Twain explains that he has succeeded in deciphering them from the hieroglyphies of our first ancestor, and that the importance as a public character which that individual has attained fully justify the publication, There is, as usual, plenty of audacity, but audacity tempered with delicacy and even tenderness very characteristic of the author.All through his books, as one has said, in spite of his exuberance and extravagances of style, Mark Twain has been the fearless champion of honesty and purity, and his wildest freaks of fancy have never been tainted by any unworthy suggestion.A few quotations will prove better than comment on the originality of this volume: \u2018Monday.\u2014This new creature with the long hair is a good deal in the way.It is always hanging around and following me about.I don\u2019t like this; I am not used to company.I

have to keep that name, no doubt.It wearies me to fret about it, and it does no good anyway.~Dodo! It looks no more like a dodo than I do?On the subject of nomenclature and gender we find the following cheracteris- tic entry: \u2018Monday \u2014The new creature says its name is Eve.That is all right, 1 have no objections.Says it is to call it by when I want it to come.I said it was superfluous, then.The word evidently raised me in its respect; and indeed it is a large, good word, and will bear repetition.It says it is not an It, it is a She.This is probably doubtful; yet it is all one to me; what she is were nothing to me if she would but go by herself and not talk.\u2019 For want of space we pass over the episode of the expulsion from the Garden of Eden, and Adam\u2019s hasty flight, as well as Eve's ingenious explanation of the disaster.The coming of the first baby adds immensely to Adam's perplexities.\u2018She caught it while I was up country trapping on the North Shore of the Erie.It resembles us in some ways, and may be a relation.\u201d But Adam thinks it is a fish, though Eve\u2019s solicitude about it causes him grave doubts.\u2018She used to carry the young tigers around #0, and play with them, before we lost our property; but it was onlv play; she never took on about them like tbis when their dinner disagreed with them.\u201d Later on he is convinced that it cannot be a fish.\u2018I said 1 believed it was an enigma, but she only admired the word without understanding it\u2019 Three months later, when the new creature takes to walking on its four legs, Adam decides that it is a variation of the kangaroo species, and names it Kan- garoorum Adamiensis.It puzzles him that it should be the only one, and he takes infinite trouble to find another to add to his collection.\u2018I have set a dozen traps, but they do no good.1 catch all small animals except that one.The perplexity increases as the new creature grows.It refuses to make friends with a real kangaroo.Adam wants to let it go, but Eve will not hear of it.Later he abandons the kangaroo hypothesis, and decides that it is prebably some kind of bear, and will eventually become dangerous.Meantime he resolves to go off on a far expedition among the PIANO FAVORITES.For nearly thirty years ours has been the favorite piano store.We sell Chick- ering, Heintzman & Co., and many other fine makes.Price right, terms easy.C.W.Lindsay, Limited, 2366 St.Catherine street.ast End Bran 3 Catherine street.ch, 1622 St.¢ VION Advertisements, TSERRAT LIME FRUIT JUICE Analysis proves that it is the BEST obtainable, Highest Citricity and Finest Flavor.EVANS AND SONS, Limited, MONTREAL AND TORONTO.Why do you Cough?Cures Coughs, Colds, Bronchitis, Croup, Sore Throat, and all irritations of the Throat and Lungs.25c everywhere, forests of the north and make an ex haustive search.\u201cThere must certainly be another one somewhere, and this one will be less dangerous when it has company of its own species.\u201d After a long and weary hunt he returns to find that during his absence, \u2018without stirring irom the home estate,\u201d she has caught another one!

we were not used to it.There are soma girls now.Abel is a good boy, but it Cain had stayed a bear it would have improved him.After all these years I see that I was mistaken about Eve in the beginning; it is better to live nut- side the Garden with her than inside without her.At first I thought she talked too much; but now I should be sorry to have that voice fall silent and pass out of my life.Blessed be the chestnut that brought us near together and taught me to know the goodness of her heart und the sweetness of her spirit!\u2019 Tt is one of the pathetic coincidences of life that this tribute to his wife, so thinly veiled with fun, should have beena présentiment of overshadowing fate.The friends and admirers of Mr.Clemens everywhere will sympathize with him in the loss of the wife who was so dear to him.* Major Martin Hume, the author of the \u2018Courtship of Queen Elizabeth,\u2019 and \u2018The Love Affairs of Mary Queen of Scots,\u2019 left Wemyss Castle the other day bearing away in his bag a manuscript that Scotland has beeen longing to get a sight of for many years.1t is the diary of David Wemyss, Lord Elcho, who went out with Prince Charlie, in the rising of 1745.Lord Elcho was then twenty-six years of age, son of the fourth Earl ef Wemyss, and from his youth had been an ardent Jacobite.He was opposed to the rising of 45, but nevertheless raised a troop of Life Guards which he com: manded until the overwhelming defeat cf Culloden, and when the young Prince was compelled to fly to the Continent, Lord Elcho went as his companion.During the long foreign exile that followed, a careful diary was kept.and in its pages, without fear or favor, the last of the Stuarts had his base and vain character laid bare.As has late- Jy been the fashion, there is little comprehension of or allowance made for the unbearable disappointment to the sanguine nature of the Prince, wha in youth had been so charming, and the use of the term Pretenders applied to the Royal Stuarts, whatever their defects of character, should not be vermit- ted in literature.It was a triumph for Major Hume as a historian when he was able to persuade the owner of Wemvss Castle to allow him the use of papers and documents hitherto refused to many distinguished applicants.JOSEPH CONRAD'S PERSONALITY, \u2018Very few people ever get an opportunity to see Joseph Conrad, whose \u201cRomance,\u201d written in collaboration with Ford Maddox Hueffer, has just appeared,\u2019 writes a gentleman from Eng- Jand.\u2018This is because Mr.Conrad 1s extremely averse to meeting strangers.But the other day, through the courtesy of Mr.Hueffer, who is, as it were, the guardian of Mr.Conrad's comfort, 1 had the opportunity of meeting the famous author.I found him a broad- shouldered man above the medium height, who would look much taller it he were not slightly stooped, saturnine of exterior, with dark hair, dark overshadowed eyes, and a black, bushy beard.His distinctly unconventional dress and manner set him immediately aside from the average run of people.Any one not aware of his identity would surely realize a 3 Ean iat |G EEE) Orange Meat is the Best of the Wheat The very essence of cereal goodness and nutriment\u2014mixed with another product which adds flavor and pleasant taste.premiums, THE FRONTENAC CEREAL CO., Ltd., Ready to serve\u2014hot or cold.This Silverware is Free with the Cereal Coupons in every 1 5c.package are redeemable at our address, Heavy silverplated teaspoons in sets of six, dessert and tablespoons in sets of three, beautiful silver sugar shells and new pattern butter knives\u2014these are the free ASK YOUR GROCER FOR ORANGE MEAT\u2014SEND US THE COUPONS 43 80C0TT 8T., TORONTO, ONT.at once that he is a man who has experienced much, both of the sweet and bitter of life.His whole manner is extremely nervous.Ill-health probably accounts for this, as he is not by temperament an excitable man.You remember he is a Pole whose first allegiance was to France, He betrays his foreign nationality; for he has a pronounced accent and speaks with a very French rapidity, though his English is academically pure.Gelett Burgess, co-author with Will Irwin of \u2018The Picaroons\u2019 and \u2018The Reign of Queen lsyl\u2019 (McClure-Phillips), has so identified himself with the amusing side of literature that no one would sus pect he had made his literary debut as a writer of melancholy verse.But he did.In the following original manner ne broke into print.When he was a student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, having engaged in a competition with a friend as to who could write the most mournful poem, Jr.Burgess won the prize with some stanzas, which began: \u2018The dismal day, with dreary pace, has dragged its tortuous length along.It was decided that this | must be printed.Lo effect this, Mr.Burgess\u2019s friend wrote a letter to the \u2018Notes and Queries\u2019 column of the \u2018Boston Transcript,\u2019 saying: \u2018Can you tell me the name of the author who wrote the poem beginning *\u201clhe dismal, ete.7 The query was printed and the obliging friend responded promptly with the tol- lowing answer: \u2018The poem asked for in Query No.2416 is by Frank Gelett Burgess.The whole poem runs as fol lows:\u201d and gave it in full.The Macmillan Company will publish in about a fortuight Mr.Weale's very timely book on \u2018 Manchuria.\u2019 Tt is the work of a map who has lived long in that country and who hae .explored diligently the conditions and the problems for which Manchuria is the name 3 as those conditions\u2014social, economic, political, historic, racial\u2014exist to-day.This octavio of about three hundred pages will contain thirty .plates from specially good photographs of Port Arthur, Dalny.and places in the neighbor.| hood.\u2018English Gothic Architecture\u2019 is the latest issue in the series of Temple\u2019 Primers,published by the Macmillan Com- | pany.Mr.P.H.Ditchfield\u2019s volume is an invaluable handbook for travellers | to the other side who care for the old Gothic churches and castles.Norman Duncan's stories of the Newfoundland fisher folk, which were collected into a volume under the title of \u2018The Way of the Sea, (McClure-Phil- lips), have brought him high praise from a fellow-craftsman, F.T.Bullen.Mr.Bullen writes a preface for the English edition of the book, in which he says: \u2014 \u20181 am absolutely certain that, sith the exception of Mr.Joseph Conrad nd Mra Rudyard Kipling, no writing about the sea has ever probed so deeply and faithfully into its mysteries as his.\u2019 Pocock, whose story of adven- the west of Canada and the Rockies of the United States, \u2018Following the Frontier,\u201d made such a success, is one of Canada\u2019s leading poets.A recent volume of \u2018Songs of the Great Dominion\u2019 devotes more pages to Mr.Po- cock\u2019s poetry than to that of any other contributor.Roger ture in Mr.Frowde has taken over the \u2018Treasury of Canadian Verse,\u2019 selected and edited by Dr.Theodore H.Rand;

Miss Winthrop in her room across the $all smiled.\u201cWhat is it, Phil?\u2019 she called.Her nephew appeared at the door, flush- of and indignant.\u2018Just you come here, Aunt Helen, and eee.\u2019 Grasping her elbow, he led her to the door of his bedroom.\u201cThere,\u2019 he exclaimed, with inexpressible disgust, \u2018wouldn't tbat jar you?\u201d Mise Winthrop followed the direction indicated by the grimy forefinger, and laughed in spite of herself.\u201cWhy, that's the portrait of your great Aunt Rebecca,\u2019 she answered.\u2014 \u2018Well, what's it doin\u2019 up herè-on my wall?demanded the boy, angfily; \u2018mother seems to think my room's kind of a halfway between the store-room and the rest of the house.She didn't want Aunt Re- Bocca In the sitting-room, and she thought father would be mad if she put it in the store-room, so she bad to hang It up here, Any old thing's good enough for my room.\u2018Edith has to have new wall paper, and pretty furniture, an\u2019 everything nice, because she's a girl, an\u2019 I get all the worn- out stuff that no one else will bave be- \u2018cause I'm a boy.Look at the oid faded carpet, an\u2019 isn't that wall paper fierce.Now I've got to have Aunt Rebecca\u2019s picture up here, too.Mother's always at mo because I don't keep things straight, but what's the good, when everything's shab- dy?His aunt smiled at his vehemence.\u2018But you know, Phil,\u2019 she said, conciliat- ingly, \u2018Edith is very careful of her things.and her room ls always in perfect order.\u2019 \u2018It 1 had decent things, I'd try to keep them in order, but mother seems to think anything is good enough for me.\u201d A whis- Hé outsidé interrupted his outburst, and haëtffy recollecting himself he picked up nis\u2019 fap.\u2018That\u2019s the fellows waltlng for me, and snatching up his baseball and bat:he was oft.\u2019 > aunt stood surveying the room thoughtfully.\u2018It is a pity,\u201d she sald aloud, as her eyes roved from the dingy carpet to the unwelcome Aunt Rebecca in the tar- pished frame, \u2018I believe I'll offer Julia a suggestion.\u2019 Her opportunity came a few duys later when Mrs.Ford, looking up from her sew- tng, observed meditatively, \u2018I wonder what I can give Philip for his birthday.It's only two weeks off.and I haven't an idea.\u2019 \u2018Can I offer a hint,\u2019 asked Miss Winthrop, \u2018for Phil bad a heart-to-heart talk with me not long ago.\u2019 \u2018I shall be only too grateful,\u2019 -answered her sister, threading e needle.\u2018Edith is very easy to select presents for, but I always have a time with Phil's, What would you suggest?\u2019 \u201cWell, as I say, Phil unburdened himself to me recently on the subject of his room.He was not greatly delighted with the work of art which you contributed.\u2019 \u2018Aunt Rebecca, you mean,\u2019 said Mrs.Fo, smiling.\u2018To tell the truth I didn\u2019t quite know what to do with ber.1 was tirdd of the picture In the sitting-room, and rats it didn\u2019t seem quite respectful to put ber or it, rather, up In the store-room.So I put it In Phil's room as A compromise.1 suggested hanging the picture in Edffh's room, but she wouldn\u2019t hear of it, So I thought as long as Phil was a boy he wouldn't mind.Boys never care much about their rooms.\u2019 \u2018I think you are mistaken there, Julia,\u2019 answered her sister with conviction.\u2018You should have heard the indignant outburst I listened to.Anything was good enough for his room, old furnture, faded carpet, \u201c\u2018flerce\u2019\u2019 wall-paper, as he expressed It.Now I really think that if his room was furnished attractively, he would try to keep it in order.My Idea for bis birthday would be to send him down to father's for a week and improve his absence by doing up his room.I'll contribute the wall-paper, and 8 cheap matting for the floor won't cost much.You know,\u201d she ended.smiling, \u2018we old maids are authorities on the training of children.\u2019 \u2018I realiy think it is a good plan,\u2019 replied the other, approvingly.\u2018It\u2019s worth trying, anyway.I've talked to him so much about being orderly, and perhaps If he has a pretty room it will be an incentive to keep it in order.\u2019 Accordingly Philip was despatched to the country and two weeks later returned.\u2018Now you must see your birthday present,\u2019 said his mother, after his enthusiastic greeting, interrupting an eager de- geription of the hollday on the farm, \u2018Come upstairs to your room.\u2019 At the doorway he stood and gasped in astonishment.\u2018Oh, mother!\" he exclaimed, when hs recovered his speech.\u2018Oh, mothea! Is it really mine?\u2019 A transformation had indeed been acccm- plished.The faded carpet had been supplanted by a tasteful matting.and the objectionable wall paper was replaced by one more artistic in blue and white.The unwelcome Aunt Rebecca bad disappeared, and a few framed photographs hung on the walls.Beside the white enamel bed stood a bookcase containing the beloved Henty books and others, and a comfortable window seat covered with denim to match the paper held a few pillows wisely covered with washable fabric.Everything was simple and tasteful, yet comfortable.Philip's eyes opened wide as he took it ail in.\u2018Oh, mother,\u2019 he exclalmed, impulsively, as he flung his arms around her neck.\u2018I did want a decent room so badly, and I will try to keep it tidy.I can bring the tellows to see it, can\u2019t I?Reassuring him on this point, bis mother added, \u201cI told your Aunt Helen 1 wanted you to be orderly about your room.and she thought if you had a pretty room youd be more apt to be tidy.So I said I would try her plan.\u2019 Phil turned a beaming face to his aunt.\u2018I thought it was your idea, Auntie, and you were right, too.\u2019 His aunt smiled.\u2018Well,\u2019 she replied, \u2018If I am right it remains with you to prove it.\u2019 \u2018It's up to me,\u2019 he replied, \u2018and I'll do it,\u2019 and he kept his word.\u2014The 'Presbyter- lan Banner.\u2019 Can we Give God Pleasure ?The Rev.J.Hudson Taylor, at North- Weld, used the following striking fllustra- tion: \u2018The earthly relationship of parent and child ia only a type and dim deflection of the pro-existing relationship in the Divine mind; and al! that the bridegroom and bride bring before us of trust and of love are only Intended to teach us the true relationship of the Church to Christ, and of Christ to his Church.Hence we are not making a mistake in feeling that those Joys and pleasures which affection brings with it existed in the heart of our glorious Father, and of the great Bridegroom; that we only rightly know bim when we realize the privilege.we have of making glad the heart of God; that to please God is to give God pleasure, as earthly parents receive pleasure when thelr children please them.Let me illustrate this by a little Incident that, not important In itself, will perhaps throw light on this important truth.After & long absence from home I returned to England many years ago; and on my birthday.my Httle daughter\u2014a wee girlie of about four years of age\u2014came to me with a curtous little thing in her hand, saying: \u201cPapa, 1 thought you would rather have something I made myself than anything I could buy for you: so I haven't bought you a birthday present, but have made you one.\u201d How glad my heart was that my dear child should recognize this fact, that even her !ittla work would bring more pleasure to her father than anything that could be bought.But I looked at the little gift with some perplexity, not wishing to grieve thé child by letting her see I didn't know what it was intended to be, and yet not knowing what to make of it.There was a little piece of wood,perhaps three inches by an inch and a half.The dear child had bored a hole in tne middle of it with a scissors, and put a peg into the hole, on which she hung half a.cockle-chell.After some little puzzling, 1 was obliged to say to her: \"I am se glad, darling, you have made me a pretty present, but what ts 11?\" She looked at me with some surprise, and sald: \u201cWhy, papi, don\u2019t you know?It is a ship to take you to China.I thought nothing would please you so much as a ship .0 take you to China.\u201d \u201clow glad my heart was that even my little girlie understood my love for China and the Chinese, and that she had so far sympathized with It as to make me a little object which she thought would please me because of its connection, in ber mind, with China.I have that rude toy now, carefully stored up among my treasures, and the thought of it has been a joy to me during many years of separation from her.But before I left her a year and a half ago in China, where she \u2018s now working as n missionary, she introduced me to two Chinamen whom she had been the means of winning to Christ, and my heart was still more glad.I reminded her of the iong-forgotten gift she had made me so many years before.1 told her my heart was more glad now in seeing the fruit of her work for Christ than it had been then; but the love of the little girlie was pot the less precious to memory on that eccount.Now.our service to God may be as absolutely vaiueless as that little toy was to me: but if my finite heart took so much pleasure in the loving wish to please of my little child, bow mu-h joy must the great heart of God be capable of when it sees the fruit of heart and life devoted to his service?\u2019 Something to Earn Money.In the Lasty scramble among women for something to do, the most important considerations are often forgotten.The woman who secures employment must be able to do some one thing better than most women, and her method of doing must be new and original.Let a woman remember that it is in the untrodden fields that flowers grow; it she climbs the fence first she may gather the most fragrant of the blossoms.But women do not remember this, .A | young woman finds that she must suddenly becôme self-supporting; she looks about to see what other girls are doing.Because there are hundreds of girls engaged in stenography, is one good reason why she should not attempt to enter that occupation.There is little chance for a woman in a profession already full.Let th: woman who Is searching for a position look nearer to herself.What is she fitted for?What has she done iu her own home, in better days, that was pleasant to those about her?Surely in the home there was some little duty in the performance of which she excelled.Can she darn stockings, sew on buttons, care for the clean laundry?Can she mend nicely?If so, she need not look further.She is prepared for thls work.Why borrow money to go to business college?Can she embroider dainty initials?Then she can find scores of handkerchiefs to embroider, and many women wish their in- ital upon every garment.Is she original in planning parties, especially for children?There is a great demand for women who are skliful in arranging something new, novel, and entertaining for small children.large children and grown-ups.Perhaps this woman who was more fortunate, can pack trunks daintily and weil.\u2018Could she not secure permission from the manager of some large hotel, frequented by wealthy travellers, to send out cards among his patrons?There are hundreds of women who hate trunk-packing as they hate toothache.Some young women have a natural talent for hanging Jictures, ani for rearranging furniture to make it look l'k2 new.There are hundreds of women in all \u2018argo nitini who would not only willingly but gladly pay well to have thelr homes occasionally rejuvenated.Caterers are \u2018extravagant luxuries.Wem- en who have turned luncheons or dinners over into their hands have been shocked to find everything done just like a neighbor\u2019s luncheon.These hostesses and hundreds of others would be glad to pay a claver, original woman twice what they raid the caterer, if they could find a woman who could plan the function with careful regard to originality and harmony in detalls, which most caterers hold In contempt.If it is necessary to earn ones own ving it cannot be done successfully where th'e ranks are filled.But a woman with an jdea can make that idea pay her.Something new, somathing original, something unique is the cry of the soclety woman of to-day.The self-supporting woman who can meet this demand has made her fortune.Get out of the beaten paths, enter Tew flelds, and quick recognition will meet the \u2018efforts.But whatever she does, the woman must herself be convinced of the worth of her ideas, and must not be afraid to tell others that they are worth while.\u2019 Then when she gets the opportunity of demonstrating her originality she must be careful to live up to the reputation which she gave herself.Up to the reputation and \u2018even beyond i! she would succeed.\u2014 Chicago \u2018Journal.\u2019 THE SILENT TIME, Have you and I to-day \"Stood silent as with Christ, apart from joy or fray Or life, to see by faith His face; To look, if but a moment, at His grace, And grow, by brief companionship, true, More nervel to lead, to dare, to do For Him at any cost?Have we to-day Found time in thought, our hand to lay In His, and thus compare His will with ours, and wear The impress of His wish?Be sure Such contact will endure Throughout the day; will help us walk erect Through storm and flood; detect Within the hidden life, sin\u2019s dross, stain: Revive a thought of love for Him again; Steady the steps which waver; help to see The footpath meant for you and me.\u2014George Klingle, With the Children.A LETTER TO TIRED MOTHERS.My heart goes out to the tired mothers all around me, Every mother who has all the care of her family Is a tired mother.How can it be otherwise?But there are some who have it harder than others, and to these I particularly want to speak a few helpful words.My neighbor is one of the most pationt, gentle little women I have ever met, but it is this very gentleness and patience that works her ruin.I want to say to her, and many others like her, that a great part of her ill-health and broken epirit is rausel by her own lack of firmness.Now, I know by experience that with all the hard work and saving, one can get a deal of comfort out of !lfe through one\u2019s own children, if they are properly trained.Do not let the children get the idea tbat you are their slave and must work for them and wait ca them, expecting no return, not even obe- dlence.Do you know, that by your lack of firmness.thinking to shield the child from every hardship, you are winning its Kisrespect for you in your old, age?Why do you shield your chiidren so carefully from reepopeibility® Teach them rather that \u2018Life is real, life is earnest,\u2019 and we must each have cares and responsibilities, and help to bear and shave eack other's more its burdens.Nevor let them talk in a disrespectful way to you.This neighbor of whom I speak has a boy seven years old, and naturally she expects a little help from him in her housework.When zhe agks him to wipe her dishes he pouts, throws the towe: on the floor, etc.I notice when he has been especially bad, my little friend is exhausted and discouraged, when, if he had obeyed her cheerfully, lite would not have looked so dark, and she would have been comforted and resied.Now, dear little mothers, do not let this state of things exist another day.Re- sclve some morning, by God's help\u2014which, by the way, be sure to ask the first thing -\u2014that you will be firm tbis one day with that boy, and be sure that whatever you plan for him to do, he does it, and 1f he gives you any impudence, bave a good, quiet \u2018talk with him and then punish bim seriously for the offence.If you have to put aside everything else, attend to this duty at once, and after a few such days he will certainly jegin to change for the better.One of my neighbors says her four-year- old boy is too young to punish.He isso hated and shunned by every live thing on the street that he can find no playmates.Begin to teach the babies obedience, and never let an opportunity of teaching it rass, and by the time they are four years old they will need bly to look in mothor\u2019s face, where they can read love and firniness, and the result will be obedience.Show a great interest In their joys and sorrows, and if they are musical, cultivate that talent as much as you possibly can, for \u2018he home «omfort.When you have a particularly trying day and life looks very dark, gather the chii- dren around you in the twilight hour, and sing with them, \u2018Let us gather up the sunbeams lying all around our path,\u2019 and | then repeat In concert, \u2018The Lord is my : Shepherd.\u2019 It will relleve your burdened souls, and you will be willing to leave re- | sults in the hands of that Good Shepherd.Earnestly yours, Annie Raymond, in \u2018Ladies\u2019 World.\u201d Acquiring a Specimen.Mrs.Franklin had always spoken her mind, and she intended to do it so long as the gift of speech was

and apply the same things for beauty,\u2019 sald the plump and pink beauty doctor.\u2018Diet is not everything in the world, but it Is a great deal.It will help you out amazingly in your beauty scheme.But next after the diet comes the care of tae complexion.Now, I have one patient who djets on oatmeal to keep indigestion at bay.And at night she bathes her face in oatmeal water and uses ihe same upon her hands.Nor does thls woman's oatmeal cure stop at small measures.She cooks & table- sroonful of oatmeal in a quart of water until it 1s milky.This she strains and makes soft with borax.To thls she adds just a little benzoin, and with this she washes ber face after coming in from a dusty walk.At night she sleeps with her hands mm gloves llned with oatmeal paste, and she has a little tray of powdered oatmeal, mixed with fine pumice, which she uses upon her hands once a day to take off the spots.\u2018She also makes a soap jelly which is excellent for the bands and which has oatmeal 2s a basis.And by persevering with her cure she manages to keep on hand a collection of fine cosmetics for use on all occasions when the spring tears the skin and the sun scorches it.Other women live on fruits and nuts, and use crushed berries and almond meal for their skins.The juices of ripe fruits make an excellent cosmetic.Ripe strawberries can be rubbed upon the face or the berries can be prepared into a strawberry wash.There was a certain beauty who used to macerate a pint of berries daily and add them to a little softened rain water.This she strained and heated, and then she added it to her bath.Sometimes she used the berries stronger, taking the pure juice.It was expensive, as she was not a country girl, but how well it repaid her.It was cheaper than rouge and better than medicines.The old belles relied upon strawberry juice to clear the skin for the rest of the year.They rubbed the berries on the face, and let the julce dry on.This, in the case of an olive skinned belle, will create an attractive flush.\u2018The juice of the berries will take away freckles and the color will tint the skin.But the blonde skinned girl must beware.The ripe berries may make her too pink, and she must, therefore, experiment a lit- tie with her skin before she goes ahead.\u2014 \u2018Globe.\u2019 SATURDAY, JOLY Z, 1904 You cannot watch your little ones too carefully during the hot weather.At this time sickness comes swiftly and the sands of the little life are apt to glide away almest before you know it.Dysen- try, diarrhoea, cholera infantum, and stomach troubles are alarmingly frequent during the hot weather.At the first sign of any of these troubles Baby's Own \u2018\u2019lablets should be given\u2014better still an occasional dose will prevent these troubles coming, and the Tablets should therefore be kept in every home.Promptness may save your child\u2019s life.Mrs.J.R.Standen, Weyburn, N.W.T,, says: \u2018Baby\u2019s Own Tablets are valuable in cases of diarrhoea, constipation, hives, and when teething.I have never used a medicine that gives such good satiefac- tion.\u201d This is the experience of all mothers who have used the Tablsts.If you do not

MEDALLIONS.Almost anything can be used to good effect as a medallion.It is one of the prettiest and ome of the most economical of trimmings.Anything with a good edge will do.The cdge must be firm and rather stouter than a raw edge.The mes dallion can be made out of the various parts of lace, as it comes by the yard, or they can be bought one by one.They should be carefully cut apart if they are bought by the yard.Baste the medalllon on to the lawn of your tie.Baste it right where you want it, and begin in the middle and baste out, so that it will rot be fulled on.After it is thus secured, baste again all around the edge.Then you are ready for the real work.With tiny stitches, whip the extreme edges of the medallion onto the lawn.Go around the medallion very carefully, taking the stitches delicately, but well through the cloth.When this is done take out the basting threads, turn the garment you are making wrong side toward you, and, with a pair of dull-pointed sci-sors, cut out carefully all the lawn under the medallion.Cut rather close to the stitches that show through from the whipping down of the edge of the medallion.With the point of the needle turn under the raw edges of the lawn, press it down with the thumb evenly all round and whip down, tacking through the lace medalifon daintity but securely.Then the medallion is on, and il the stitches are finely taken they will hardly show, and if the garment is ironed carefully, it can be laundered :afe- ly.\u2014Chicago \u2018Journal.\u2019 SMILES.\u2018Better to wear a faded gown Than pouting lips or a hateful

across being not uncommon, but the specimen produced by Major Barnhart is only a trifle less than mven inches across, and contains a dou- we handful of petals beautifully imbri- \u2018vd and appearing

won three and a half.played five, won one.In his second game with Kurrle, Jacobs had at one time an easy win, but he went after a mate which ran away from him, with the resuit that he came very near losing the game, which was finally drawn.The nights for play are Wedresday and Saturday.THE TASK PROBLEM, F We have received the following interest- Ling communication from Dr.Adolf Decker, of Chicago, a problemist of repute both in America and Europe.Dr.Decker 1s an enthusiast for the purely poetical and artistic in problem composition, a lover of the problem born of an inspiration, and polished with all the cunning of the idealist's art.He 1s somewhat fearful test sheer cleverness and tours de force should catch the public fancy, and so tickle the vanity of the solver, as to overshadow the popularity of the higher forms of the art.His objections to Mr.White's classification seem to us more of the nature of distinctions than differences, but he is radical in his denunciation of tbe task problem.We are very glad to have this clear exposition of another view, especially after the remarks of a very old and experienced solver, printed last week, to the effect that Mr.Barry's work interested the solver in construction more than the older school, \u2018good as it was, and ls.\u2019 Dr.Deckers views on the \u2018Bristol\u2019 are Interesting, and bis contention is really bistorically correct.Strictly speaking, \u2018here cannot be a two- move Bristol, except by a conventional extension of the original use of the term, a convention which, naturally.it is open to the problem world to adopt, If it so wish.THE TASK PROBLEM.An Open Letter to Mr.Alain C.White, My Dear Sir,\u2014In the interests of the chess problem, which I bave at heart as much as aavbody,I feel compelled to write an answer, although perhaps undesired, to your article on the \u2018Task Problem.\u2019 You divide problems Into four classes: The artistic problem, the idea problem, the theme problem, and the task problem.Leaving aside for the moment the last variety, I must say that the distinction between an artistic, an idea and a theme problem seems very peculiar to me.Evury problem of the right kind is artistic, and has an idea, be this idea more or less pronounced.The theme problem cannot be called a special class, as it is nothing but a problemi made to order, made according to another's wish; It embodies a stranger's idea, but is otherwise nn different from other problems.It can be compared to a prize -poem, the idea of which is furnished by someone otlinr than the author.A problem must be artistic, not from a whimsical caprice, but from its inner nature, it must, a3 you say yourself, please cur senses and satisfy them: It must be a work of beauty, and the solver, after having mastered ft, must not feel as If he had wasted his time with a product full of difficulties, but devold of aesthetic pro- pertles; on the contrary, pe must feel that he has an equivalent for the time spent.A problematic idea is, according to your definition, a move or a sequence of moves.This is not always the case, however, as the idea may consist in a sacifice combination, or in an e RO a 02 - = LL = = ; > ce Pa \u20ac au $ By ; Es: A pf i Te » PA acces He er es Py 3 .: Du La Qu oe on - CT e 2 SATURDAY, JULY 2, 1904 i = + 4 .THE MONTREAL DAILY WITNESS.21

during which, according to recent dispatches, the palace of the late Gover- nor-Ueneral at Helsingfors, the .capital of Finland, was sacked, gives evident assurance that the Kinnish indignation at the destruction of their liberty has at last , passed from that state of passive resistance with which it has contented itse.s for the last five years into a state approaching open rebellion.That it needed only the slightest spark to set Finland arire with the rebellion las been the verdict of travellers for the last five years.- In the assassination of the man most hated of all the Russian officers General Bobrikoff, the necessary spark seems to have beep furnished, and the signs of a dangerbus conflagration are apparent._ To the American, safe and unmolested in the enjoyment of his liberties, the story of the Finnish revolt and the causes that led to it reveals a conditicn of affairs that seems miserable beyond any comparison.Out of a tax on tea and a few British regiments the thirteen colonies here found justification for a successful war of independence.But of the violation of a sacred pledge to maintain their liberties, out of the conscrin- tion of their sons to serve in the Russian army, out of the despoiling of their Senate of every important power rightfully its inheritance, the Finnish people, up to the moment when Bobrikoff was assassinated, had made merely à cause for passive resistances and believed.Two men will remain forever accursed in the annals of Finland; one, Governor- General Bobrikoff, has already lost his life at Finnish hands; the other, Lieu- tenant-General Kuropatkin, commands the Russian army in the East.Advised by these men of Finnish disloyalty, the Russian Czar first began the crushing of the liberties of the Finns, just ninetv- one years after his great predecessor had pledged them liberty inviolable.In January, 1899, two bills were introduced into the Finnish Senate, at Russian behest, which wiped out the independence of the Finnish army, made it an integral part of the Russian system, increased it from 5,600 to 12,000 men, provided for the scattering of the Finnish recruits in Russian territory, and deprived the Finnish Renate of all power over these National forces, thus destroying the national character of the army.While the Senate was still wrestling with these bills, but after their rejection had been made certain, the Russian Czar issued a rescript with which the real liberty of Finland may be said to have ended.Written almost at the direction of Bobrikoff, who has now paid the penalty with his life, this remarkable ukase declared that the Finnish Senate would no L longer be permitted to legislate for Finland, the Czar reserving the right to act in matters involving the common interests of Russia and Finland, and declaring that he alone should be the judge of what questions involved common interests, thus by a stroke ofw the pen wiping out the constitutional rights of the nation.e Within the next three years the policy of the Czar became obvious; stripped of every vestige of power, remodelled to suit Russian convenience, the Senate passed the Military Conscription law desired by Russia, almost at the point of the bayonet.Young Finns were forced into the Russian army and scattered all over the empire, subject to all the brutality that has made the Russian officer notorious.In 1901 the national language was declared to be no longer the official tongue in the Senate, and gave place to Russian, while Russian regiments garrisoned the country with Cossack cruelty.In the meantime the Finnish people had protested in no uncertain voice.petition, signed by 523,000 Finns, was carried to the Czar, but an audience was refused to the messengers, and Finland adopted a poliey of passive resistance to Russianization.Local district officials resigned rather than publish the list of recruits, ministers refused to read the military law in the churches, recruits \u2018crowaeu emigrant steamers at the rate of a thousand a week, and less than fifty responded to the draft of over eight hundred in Helsingfors.Some of these were cripples, and the rest were mobbed by their indignant countrymen.The senators who yielded to Russian pressure and voted for the military Jaw were boycotted.Helsingfors hotels refused to receive them, and mo insult was too vehement for them.The proprietor of one hotel, which, through à clerk\u2019s error, received such a senator, was actually driven into bankruptcy.Meantime, even the women were taking_part in the protest.Helsingfors had become a city of mourning.Women dressed only in black, and all en- | tertainments were abandoned.For those >= to $1.50 each.We have everything In Men's Wearables to make outing a pleasure.OPEN TO 11 P.M.TO-NIGHT,

Finns submitted, but promptly adopted an unofficial mourning stamp, which they put on their letters in addition to the Russian stamp.\u2018\u201cIhe Russians retaliated by destroying all such letters, and in this spirit the contest has been waged.During all this time the Russians bad been extending their invasion.By an edict issued in October, 1903, the authon- ty was given to the Governor-(Gieneral, hitherto vested in the Finnish authorities, to remove officials, and he siznal- ized this accession of power by removing all the judges of the Appellate Court, who had pronounced the military daw unconstitutional.Even the national press was ruthlessly suppressed.All power now centred in the Governor-General, and Bobrikoff, after years of effort, found himself in a position to enjoy the fruits of his labor.That he overstepped even Finnish endurance seems apparent, for nine months after he secured absolute control, a Finnish patriot ended his career.The fate of Finland, like that of Poland, scrves to indicate the meaning of Russian rule.It serves also to explain the reason that the chancelleries cf Europe are anxiously watching for evidence of internal revolution as the Russian armies move from defeat to defeat.That there still survives, despite all Russian oppression and tyranny, a loyalty to liberty which might easily express itself in rebellion may be gathered from the following extract from the favorite national lyric of the Finns: Be still our splendid colors, though tattered, onward borne, Of Finland's anclent standard there's yet a shred untorn.CASTORIA

Deep Sea Mission.\u2019 The following letter to the \u2018Witness\u2019 from Dr.Wilfrid Grenfell, dated June 16, on board the steamship \u2018Strathcona,\u2019 at sea, will prove interesting to the many friends of the intrepid missionary to Labrador and the Deep Sea Fisheries.He says:\u2014 \u2018It 1s so long since I wrote you a line that 1 hardly know where to begin.We are out here at sea, bound for St.John\u2019s, to go into dock and get the season\u2019s outfit, It is my watch and my watchmate is steering.I have time at least to ait down and think of all our kind helpers everywhere, and send through you a word of thanks to all who are lending a band in this branch of work.We are short-handed on board.My usual deckhand is still only convalescent from an operation, and is yet at

suffer ing from the effects of a first voyage amid a choppy head-sea.So, as I write, I have to get up every few minutes to make sure we are on our course still.To endure hardship is essential to make a man worth anything, and the boy, though finding it a bitter task, is gaining what can never be had by shirking difficulties.This is the lesson of life.I] have just been reading in Dr.Henry Van

in this wandering life one feels that there is not the time, nor the opportunity for devotional exercises that at home one is wont to consider \u201creligion.\u201d But the thought that the service of

summer.as we are not yet able to afford to keep it open all summer.In spite où our not opening the building till March 22.and having no trained nurse or matron, we had admitted thirteen in-patients, the last leaving it in an open boat the very day before the steamer came.and this was my plucky old widow woman, who had come sixty or seventy miles, her boys hauling her on a sleigh with dogs, and who now returned along the Atlantic seaboard in a small open rowing boat, with the ice still everywhere\u2014at least relieved of suffering, and as far as could be \u201ccured.\u201d 1t has been

fishermen are.The work, moreover, was given to men who sadly needed a hand to start the fishery out of debt, so that \u2018tame dogs\u2019 have been helped by this kindly gift in many ways.What does our hospital need most now?Well, a cellar\u2014absolutely essential to keep any fresh vegetables during winter.A cellar is built ofswood or stone and covered with several feet of sods and earth.It is also sunk down into the ground.In it we would keep potatoes.cabbages, onions, turnips and apples, if we had any.These foods are cheap, keep well ,and are anti-scorbutic.What little we had this winter were crowded into Mr.Moore's small cellar with his, but that would be useless if enough for the hospital are to be preserved.Alas, this spring nearly every garden will have to go unplanted, and many families will have no potatoes in their gardens for next winter, for there were no seed potatoes to be purchased anywhere, and none came from St.John's in time.The heat of our summer makes it essen- tel 5 plant them before early June.Besides a cellar, the hospital must have dome way of bringing water nearer, for, though we have a stream close by, we use so much for baths and washing and of the book of our Moravian brethren further north, and make wooden shoots which by a movable junction will bring water right to the tanks in our tur- nace cellar, when the pipes, with a pump, lead to the hot bath system so kindly sent from Boston, and which ar rived this spring.The apparatus came within fifty miles of us, but was driven back by ice last winter.The engineers of the \u2018Strathcona\u2019 have fixed it up for us.On June 4 the \u2018Strathcona\u2019 arrived, and we at once set to work bringing from the bay some of the wood cut for next winter.Most of this has been cut in return for clothing sent us through various branches, and the work of cutting it during the winter was given to various poor families.This has been a most material help to them, and has made it almost impossible to see near St.Anthony, such another picture as those of days gone by; children barefooted on the snow at a temperature of 20 degrees below zero.The Methodist minister, who patrols all this large district (really a student, who is on his way to college), told me that his receipts for the work and for their missionary work from this purt were very much larger than ever before in their history\u2014a sign to us that not only were the people really pulling up materially, but also were rightly using their proportional prosperity to the service of the giver.Over two hundred families in all received larger or smaller grants, all of which last winter, with tts bitter cold, made true charity.Only In one or two cases was the grant made free, and much wood work, road work, wharf work, boat work and such like was returned to the mission, and proved valuable to bôth us and them.1 trust all the kind donors, all who gave time to work, all who gave thought for others, will rejoice that they were able to have this opportunity for doing it \u2018unto him.\u2019 The work benches were useful this winter.We tried the carpentering class long enough to show its practicability aud its value, but till we can afford to put up a mission room alongside the hospital where sound does not disturb oft patients and chips and shavings do not obviate our aseptic etforts, the benches will not prove as useful as they ought to.Miss White is trying, we hear, to get a roofing for the room, possibly of the stuff being used for the buildings at the St.Louis Exhibition, The various gifts of toys, comfort bags and articles sent by branches of the W.C.T.U.of Canada, have been very, very useful.How often we think of the many busy fingers which have plied busily te send these texts of

people who think they have left God in the -ity to look after their re- ligicus interests, must settle it with him.\u2019 The call came to dinner, and I quietly closed the gate as the yachtsman, looking hungry and rather bored, stepped Inside.But walking along the mint bordered paths where the blackbirds quarrelled with me for even looking at the scattered cherries on the trees that were theirs by right of Mossession, I! was Impressed by the slinple truth that I had heard the sermonette that told old fashioned truths in a homely wav.And the far off sound as I became further away was the host's voice as It floated through the open window, \u2018Rest, young man, rest, in the paths of peace,\u2019 and beside the \u2018still waters.\u201d BIRDS AND PEAS.Little Girl.\u2014I wish you would tell me how to keep the birds from the peas, for 1 should be very glad to know.They swoop down on mine as soon as they are plump, and leave a row of ragged pods.We know too well the good the birds do, to attemnt to destroy them, but it is tantalizing, to say the least, that they will not go halves.Perhaps a few rows of string crossed over them with bits of red cloth tied here and there will help them, but it does not al- wavs have a frightening influence.In England I remember seeing small boys with clappers sitting on the farmers\u2019 gates or running round the fleld making a noise to frighten the birds from the grain flelds.but small boys, nowadays, aska high price for their services, even if it is only to stand round, and share in eating the peas, so that system is out of date, on account of the price of labor.The advice given me on this subfect many years ago was to \u2018sow plenty of peas.\u2019 RESURRECTION PLANT.Mrs.J.A.\u2014The plant wlll renew itx activity as soon as placed in water.It is really one of the club mosses, and its name is Selagipella Convoluta.The fronds are cnriously contracted and curled in, when dry, but expand again when moistened.It is a native of Panama, Bo you can well understand that warmth and moisture will agree with it, while they also require parade.tal ah TREE PLANTING.A correspondent writca of seeing remarks on tree planting.and asks if it is true as he has read that this custom in cities has its dangers, by choking the drain pipes and penetrating them so as to prevent the exit of sewage.\u2019 This accident can be easily avoided, and it seems foolish to hold it as an argument in face of the value and benefit afforded by trees in our crowded cities, the best possible factor for the health of the inhabitants of all large towns and cities, and the most effectual element Ir reducing the death rate.Forests supply equal bumidity, afford shelter, create springs and control the flow of rivers.As mentioned before, the sufferings and ruin of vast communities have demonstrated these facts, not only in times long past, but even in recent periods, So | to remain dormant too late, which accou:t- for lack of bloom.It is as easily manages 28 a geranium, only requires a littie Knowledge of its likes and 4isitkes.In potting the tuber {t must not be entirely covered as Its shoots are not able to push through the soil llke a calla, and it must not be packed closely.After watering thoroughly It should be kept in ® warm shaded place, and will not need any more attention except a moderate supply of water, till new growth is noticed, when more water should be given.Decomposed soil from the compost heap is the best for vottinz.When the flowering season is east they can be dried off, but not allowed to become too dry or shrivelled for water must not be altogether withheld.Being a summer flowering bulb, they should be started by February, and care must ba taken to ensure gopd drainage, while liquid fertilizer applied at the root will heip tv give strength and color to the flowers.Thre foliage and richness of bloom justly entitles this plant to a first place amocg our summer tubers, and repays for all tue attention and care it requires.\u2019 ABOUT KEEPING CUT FLOWERS.Nellie noticed the remarks last week about the best method of keeping cut flowers in hot weather, and asks for further Information.Ans \u2014A very important ru.a is never to cram the vases full of flower stems as is so often done, for, as a cone- quence, the water is soon polluted, and uscd and the stems have not room to absorb it Vases that can hold a good deal of water are preferable to the spindle shaped litte trumpets so often used.For flowers with short stalks, flat dishes Âlled with w.- sand.are useful.and even partially with: ered blossoms often revive when placed :u such cool moisture.\u2018 Moss is to be avoided in warm weather &s it soon smells disagreeably, but co ! Iresh water tf changed every morning w'.i keep them fresh and bright.Always ke; in a cool dark place at night, and cut t'.stems every day.For very delicate swee\u2019 scented flowers it is as well to gather then with several leaves that are kept submer:- ed, only the flower head remaining abo: water while the leaves seem to apport to flower, and help to Keep it fresh.Cool night alr out of doors, if possible, and plenty of cool water to drink all day : the only method of retaining the freshne- of your flowers.PEANUT E.L.\u2014Yes the peanut has another name Tt is Arachis.It is a native of the We:t Indies, but is cultivated for profit in a tbe Southern States.ne plant is an a: nual of trailing habit, with yellow pes shaped flowers produced from the axils ~* the leaves, in bunches of five or seven close to or under the ground.They rv- quire light sandy soil, and the stems to H- covered with earth as they spread.for tho nuts, really seeds, only ripen under ground Acvertisements.Get Rid of Scrofula Bunches, eruptions, inflammations, soreness of the eyelids and ears, diseases of the bones, rickets, dyspepsia, catarrh,wasting, are only some of the troubles it csuses.It is à very active evil, making havoc of that even if a drain here and there requires | the whole eystem.Hood\u2019s Sarsaparilla Eradicates it, cures all {ts manifestations, and builds up the whole RL < Accept no substitute, extra and careful attention to avoid trouble in a crowded place we cannot gainsay the teachings of science, and the records of history.GLOXINIA NOT FLOWERING.Mrs.G.\u2014Probably the plant was allowed Bisho that th without A re mission country Uganda princi lieh CI tribe 8 Arabie- velling Rev.A appoint The Court \u2019 who h work.been r to mek by mag added \u2019 pledge men that sl how tl The Alexan the ne annual curFion At 1 of the ventior Americ held o memor Arioch Society of eact chuset!

Early in the morning of Saturday.May 7, Miss Clara M.S.Lowe passed from her earthly to her heavenly home.She was for many years a devoted Christian worker, as well as a remarkable and interesting personality.Miss Lowe was born in St.Helena in the year 1819, during the imprisonment of Napoleon, under the surveillance of her father, Gezneral Sir Hudson Lowe, Her mother is described as a charming and fascinating woman.Sir Hudson, whose character and conduct during the time of his difficult and thankless tasx have been much discusszd of late years, though probably lacking somewhat in tact and diplomacy, was a brave and upright man, and all are agreed that his ed to build me a house and supply me with anything I needed, if I would but come and live with him and his people.At the present time there 15 but one.Methodist missionary in Borneo, the Rev.J.M.Hoover, who has six sta-! tions under his charge, with about six hundred members and probationers.These are all Chinese.insistent for work among them.The Association for the General Wel fare of the Blind, London, England, was begun in 1834 by the late Miss Gilbert with seven blind men who used a cellar in New Turnstile, Holborn, as a storeroom for articles manufactured in their own homes.Now there are nearly eighty blind men and women employed every day in the Association's workshops, to whom £2,200 yearly is paid in wages and commission, £670 in stip- to Be undertaken plementary wages and gifts, and £320! jubilee .in pensions.This being the year of the work it is desired to estab- Adverticements, A Good Complexion Rich Soft Skin Bring Joy to Every Woman's Heart, and Draw Admiration from Every Man.How to Improve Your Appearance.The true source of beauty is health, so at the first signs of failing health everyone should take proper steps t regain and maintain health.Wien beauty begins to fade you can © most certain that some derange- tou of functional activity is secretly V\u2018erminimg strength and vigor.This - stopped, and can be stopped zone, which vivities all bodily so quickly that an improve- \u2018alth and looks immediately + .Ferrozene increases the appetite and improves digestion.This stimulates nutrition and quickens the formation vi 1Kr poire blood.Better blood means stiouzer nerves.Increased nerve force I iuces the wear and tear or the body.Senzth develope.spirits rise, an all- in: improvement follows._V rebuilding process is started by
