neither could there te any Dominion of Canada in its entirety; it would inevitably be a series of disconnected units.The importance of the little Island of Cape Breton, with Sydney, its capital, is therefore self-evi- dent.Figuratively it stands as one of the rocks on which Canada\u2019s greatness is 241.built, for does it not furnish the \u2018binding | power\u2019 of the locomotive, without which the great wheat fields of the central Dominion could not be brought into touch with the Atlantic and Pacific ports ?Sydney boasts one of the best harbors in the world and, but for ice which interferes with shipping for two or three months each year, it is the most accessible harbor on the Atlantic coast, as well as the nearest to all transatlantic ports.It is also convenient as a bunker port for steamers en route from the St.Lawrence to South America or South Africa, and vice versa, and for steamers trading between Liverpool and the Gulf of Mexico.The position of Sydney with reference to the coal fields of Cape Breton would seem a.se to mark it ws à point of strategic importance, and it ie mattér-for wur- prise that the British naval authorities have not made use of it, as the Freneh do to some extent.TL Most visitors reach Sydney by rail, and arriving at night they do not at once take in the beauty or extent of the harbor, which is best seen and understood by an approach from sea.We have i come from Quebec by water, round Cape | North and past the rugged and pic | turesque north shore of Cape Breton, Entering Sydney harbor on the north side we pass Sydney mines, the pioneer colliery in Cape Breton, for many years operated by the General Mining Associa tion, but now the property of the Nova Scotia.Steel & Coal Company, who bave recently built near the site of one of the pits coke ovens, a blast furnace and a steel-making plant.The shores on ouT right are bold, but not Very high, and are crowned with some very attractive residences.About four or five miles from the mouth of the harbor is North Sydney, a busy, bustling little place, where in a sheltered nook are the coal shipping and ore receiving piers ot the Nova Scotia Company, and the \u2018terminus wharf,\u2019 where the Reid Company\u2019s steam- foundland railway and the Intercolonial.Stretching several miles further up into the land is the North-West Arm, a most beautiful sheet of water, the very beau ideal of the yachtsman.this arm by a peninsula ending at Point INTERIOR VIEW OF OPEN HEARTH PLANT.NT ity We WARES SLT \u2018ing and more beautiful, formerly called ers make connection between the New-, Separated from | PANORAMIC VIEW OF THE DOMINION IRON-AND STEEL Edward, is another, guite as far-stretoh- | Spanish River, now: Sydney River.On ita: eastern shores, is.the: site of the most ambitious city in Eastern Canada.= | The old town was planted by the Brit> is still adhered to.The city of to-day has, however, far outgrown the limits seb] for the town, and has extended in all dw.rections from the peninsula.on which for: many years old Sydney pexeefully slmm- bered.- 1 ish Government, and \u201cthe original sirgeft plan œurveyed by the Royal Engineersy the Glace Bay district, and rounding Low Point, away actess the wide entrence;

At the apex of the triangle is the Assembly Yard, where the coal for use in the \u2018works is received.In convenient proximity to this yard is the coal washer, uged, as its name implies, to remove, as far as possible, the impurities from the coal\u2014principally sulphur, in the form of pyrites, and slaty stone.The process of coal washing is not unlike the familiar operation of the household laundry in which the article receiving treatment is cleansed by rubbing against a corrugated board set in a tub of water.In the case of the coal, the board is very slightly inclined from the horizontal and is continuously oscillated by powerful machinery, and covered with a plentiful supply of water.By constant agitation the impurities are separated from the coal which eventually finds its way into large draining tanks, where it is left until it becomes comparatively dry.Thence it is carried by conveyors to storage bins placed above the coke ovens, which are set in two rows parallel to the washer building.They are known as the Otto- Hoffman type of by-product ovens, are five hundred in number and produce, when in full operation, about twelve hundred tons of cake per day.From the north-western corner of the triangle-shaped area of the works project two piers, the smaller one of which is used for shipping that portion of the product of the plant wich is carried by sea; the larger, and to a vieitor, the more interesting of the piers, is that at which is received the ore and limestone which \u2018ing a low a¥d rether uninteresting ¥hopé ' eomes in at the rate of a hundred and 04 i thousand tons per month during the æfipping season, from the company\u2019s nes and quarries.This pier is fitted up, with the most modern type of ma- clinery for unloading ships, and when rations are in full swing, it is a most pcinating place to visit.;

its closely sealed top allows no gas or flame to escape and no man employed about it needs to endanger hjs life or suffer discomfort.Night and day, without let up or stop, these great furnaces absorb their \u2018burden\u2019 of ore and limestone and coke, which, kindled by the hot breath of the blast from the blowing engines, the lungs of the system, glows and melts and finally, at a heat far beyond that of the \u2018fiery furnace seven times heated\u2019 reaches the \u2018hearth\u2019 in a fluid condition.There the mass rapidly separates into two portions.The iron being heavier sinks to the bottom and the lighter dross, or slag, floats on top.Both are drawn off through conveniently placed openings into great wheeled pots or ladles, to be disposed of as will be seen later.Following our geometric description of the plant we pass to the south-western angle, where we find, built upon a plot of land leased from the Steel Company the works of the Sydney Cement Company, where excellent cement is made from blast fursace slag.Somewhere.near the central portion of the triangle we find the works of the Do- i i oth oh AR 5 AAR oe a waste product\u2014only a moderate proportion of.the total yield could be profitably disposed of.Now every gallon finds a market and in its further manufactured forms is used throughout Canada and parts of the United States.Ammonia, another by-product cf the The surplus gas from the coke ovens is piped to the steel-making plant, where it is used for heating furnaces, drying ladles, etc.\u2019 All through the works one sees waste (Contigued on Page 2.)

STEEL IN CANADA.(Continued from Page 1) material carefully looked after and made to serve some useful purpose.The various parts of the works are connected with a very complete system of railway traeke which also connect with the Sydney & Louisburg Railway, and the Interculonial.In all there are about thirty miles of standard gauge tracks, and, chiefly serving the various mills and their yards, about six miles of narrow-gauge tracks.In the latter six fussy, self-important engines bustle back and forward, somewhat in contrast to the more ponderous movement of their ten more effective but less demonstrative brethren, all of which are heavy standard switching engines.BESSEMER Within easy access of the blast fur naces already referred to is the Bessemer plant.The converter is a vessel shaped something like a bottle, with the neck slightly bent eideways, formed of boiler plate and lined internally with a compact kind of sandstone called gan- ister.The converter is first turned dcwn on its side and has poured into it a charge of about 15 tons of molten pig iron.It is then swung back into a vertical position, and in doing this the air- blast is automatically turned on.In a few minutes the silicon is all blown out of the metal, with a large part of the carbon.The vessel is then turned or.ite side again, and the blast is shut off.In this process two of the ingredients of pig iron which have to be re- mcved in order to convert it into steel are got rid of in a few minutes, by fore- ing air through the molten mass; the same work would occupy many hours if - - = little steam engines couples up and bustles off with its coagulating freight to the mills, pausing with it under a sort of iron hand that descends and lifts the moulds majestically from the glowing steel beneath.These are taken straight to an inferno of brick-lined pits, in which they are plunged and left to \u2018soak.\u2019 Soaking means the bringing of the maes of the ingot to a homogeneous temperature.The ingots are next passed to the blooming mill, where they become the prey of some hidden force which drives them swiftly onwards from beneath to the jaws of the mill which crush and roll them into varying sizes and lengths.They are rolled and rolled again and, finally cut by shears into blooms or billets.These form \u2018the raw material for the finishing mills to complete and make ready for the market.The whole process is an interesting FURNACE.4 sight at all times, but a written deserip- tion can give little idea of the roar of the blast passing through the molten iron in the converter, the brillianey of the flame, the rush of steam, of smoke, the intense heat, and the dust and the din, all of which are wonderfully evident to the visitor.There is a grandiose mingling of fire and shadow, and everywhere is activity and precision.In the rod mill the steel is \u2018spun\u2019 out into great lengths of wire-like rods and wound upon spools like so much red hot yarn.Everything about the mill is avtomatic from the time the white-hot billet, leaving the heating furnace, en- tefs the first of a series of rolls, througa which it passes at increasing speed and decreasing size, until taken up in a continuous strand on one of the automatic coilers, and.passed on to.be hung on a slowly travelling carriage and cooled go that the coils may be handled and SYDNEY

Bessemer plant.From the converter the partially treated metal is carried to the open These are ten in nuin- ber, and each has a capacity of fifty tons.Here the metal is literally boiled and after being treated with certain fluxes and reagents becomes steel.While still liquid and at white heat it 36 poured from the furnaces, as boiling \u2018water is poured from a kettle, into huge ladles.These in turn are lifted hign overhead, and from an aperture in the ttom the molten steel is poured \u201cato mculds, which stand on cast iron stools, which are placed in pairs on specially conetructed buggies.As soon as a ladle has been emptied one of the busy i\u201d.loaded into cara.But it is the rail mill that arouses the visitors\u2019 greatest interest, for it is here that the blooms, still red hot, arc passed to be further lengthened and shaped.They are drawn from the first set of rolls only to be caught again in the squeeze of the second, and the third, the quivering rail finally coming out at the further end of the shed, where it ia caught by great iron claws and brought to rest, shaped and finely finished as the familiar link which is to take its place in the chain of railway lines of the country.Here and there in the company\u2019s yard one sees buildings which in point of size would be creditable as the homes of .independent industries.\"They are the machine

is \u2018everything connected with the society.Annual contributions are granted by the directors of the company.On a select portion of the works site the company has erected on ithe line of] tramway a number of plain, comfortable dwellings, which are rented to the em-, ployees at exceedingly moderate rates.These are kept in repair and furnished: with water at the company\u2019s expense.It is needless to say that the houses are always fully occupied, as it is impossible to secure anything like the same accommodation from individual landlords at anything like the same moder\u2019 ate rentals.One of the new parts of the city has become a very fashionable residential district.Here wide streets have beeen laid out, eeveral spaces have .been reserved, trees have been left .to grow in appropriate positions, and others have \u2018been planted.In this district of Park street and Whitney avenue, the company has erected a numberjof detached cottages of a character adapted to the needs of its better class of employees, such as superior mech&nics, and superintendents of departments.In the same district, overlooking the valley of Washing Brook, and facing the south and west, is Brookland Hospital.This hospital, although it is the property of the company, is open to the sick and injured, whether they have any connection or not with the company\u2019s works, and it is largely made use.of by citizens as a whole, and is, of course, always available for guch of the company's employees as are unfortunate enough to be injured or to become seriously\u2019ill, Situated along the shore of the Sydney river, from the water side portion of the city, in a somewhat southerly direction, is the King\u2019s Road, on which are the pretty residences of some of the well-to-do citizens and the officials of the steel and coal companies.Here also in*a park like setting is the imposing residence built by Mr.A.J.Moxbam, formerly , vice-president and general manager of the Steel Company, now \u2018used as his summer residence for | al short time each year.: Following this road beyond the city limits w~ come to the dam, which forms the division line between the tidal river and the Steel Company\u2019s reservoir, which impounds the water collected by various streams falling from the south and west.The natural beauties of the surrounding scenery are almost beyond description, and here in the warm summer weather campers and picnic parties find a veritable paradise.Across the river, facing the city, is the district of Westmount, which promises one day to become a delightful suburb.Already a well- known Montrealer has succumbed to its attractions, and Petersfield, the charm- mg residence of Mr.John 8.McLennan, is one which ere long will be many times repeated.The social life of Sydney is perhaps rather more interesting than is usual in cities of its size, and during the summer season the interest is enhanced by the frequent visits of the North Atlantic Squadron of the French fleet.Many visitors from the United States and some from across the Atlantic spend'a portion \u2018of their summer holidays there, and add their quota to the life of the place.Two clubs minister to the comforts of their respective members and extend un- stinted hospitality to quite a number of guests.The older of the two, the Sydney Club, has probably fewer members than its younger and more pretentious ccnfrere, the Royal Cape Breten Yacht Club, which, as ite name implies, is the patron of all sailing and water eporis generally.Its comfortable club house, on the margin of the harbor, ia the head- quarters- of a large fleet, which includes speedy and comfortable mofor launches, some quite ambitious sailing yachts] diffs and canoes.The club's anchorage Js frequently made use of by visiting yachts, and during the summer season bne may eee the pennants of many of the best known North American yacht lubs, including the Royal St.Lawrence, the New York, and other United States Squadrons.} North Sydney, to which incidental reference has already been made, was in earlier years one of the chief bunkering stations on the coast, at a time when Bydney was a quiet, shady village, with 8 goodly number of well-to-do residents who rather looked down upon the acti- \u2018vities of North Sydney.\u201d Now, however Sydney is the leading place, and through ihe ok of the Dominion Iron and ce any.i .neighbor.pany, it has long surpassed its So far an attempt has been made t sketch what is to be found at Sydney tor day, all of which is in great contrast to that which must have been written about the place nine or ten years ago, before the Present Sydney had \u2018arrived\u2019 It May be interesting to add a few words In regard to that which has brought about 80 great a change in so rhort a \u20ac.: While it had been known for many Years that in the vicinity of Sydney there Were large bodies of excellent coal, no serious thought seems to have been given to \u2018the advisability of utilizing it for metallurgical purposes.With the discov- {ey of the Wabana iron mine, in Conception Bay, N ewfoundland, the problem of finding a convenient place for smelting its ores became a \u2018live one.\u2019 In conformity with the well established axiom, ore must be brought to the coal, and obviously the coal to which Wabana ore must be brought was the coal of the Sydney coal fields.The time was propitious.Capitalists had recently organized the Dominion Coal Company and were embark- Ing on enlatged operations to the south of Sydney harbor, which was to be their shipping base.Proposals were made to them by the.people who controlled the Wabana property, which eventually terminated in the purchase of the largest portion of their holdings.The Dominion Iron & Steel Company was immediately formed, largely by the capitalists who had organized the Dominion Coal Company.The basis of the connection between the two com: panies may be briefly stated as follows: | The Coal Company had large supplies of coal for which at the time there was no adequate market.Fhey naturally desired to conduct their operations on as large a scale as possible in order to derive the utmost benefit from large production and judicious economy.They were willing for the sake of the enlarged market which would be afforded to supply the Steel Company with coal required for the operation of their works at a low rate.The assurance of an abundant supply of coal at moderate prices, the possession of an unlimited quantity of excel lent ore within easy shipping distance, the encouragement of the Dominion and Provincial governments in the way of bounties, the offer of a free site ang other concessions by the town of Sydney led to the establishment of the works which have eventually come to sary to keep the main units of the great end e regular flotilla of rowing boats, _< \u201cee US eens iCal nee ama Cad den ATE TRE be trs Er x = fa.ec Oh KSTAL BANK OF CANADA, BANK OF MONTREAL, SYDNEY.THE BLAST FURNACE PLANT.the growth which the writer has attempted to sketch.It must not be supposed, however, that the original promoters foresaw the present development in its ehtirety.The original project included only four hundred coke ovens, four blast furnaces, ten open hearth furnaces and a blooming mill.Even before these had been completed it was found that the amount of capital eubscribed was not sufficient.The first issue was five million dollars of bonds at ninety and fifteen million dollars of common stock at fifteen.After the issue of an additional three million dollars of bonds it was found that further capital must be provided.This took the form of an issue of seven percent cumulative preferred stock, which was iseued in 1901, at eighty-five.Later five mil- Yion dollars of common stock was issued at sixty.The initial operations of the plant were disappointing.The product had to be put on the market in the unfinished state as pig iron or billets, and .blooms, for which there was not a sufficient market in Canada, and which could not be exported profitably, except when abnormal conditions in Great Britain and the United States made export to these countries possible.It speedily became apparent that it the works were to be continued in opera tion the material produced must be of such a character as to find a market within the limits of the Dominion.To do this it required additional mills.Additional mills, of course, meant a further outlay of capital.Here arose a difficulty which was not spontaneously overcome.There was a strain on the relations with the Coal Company in which the Steel Company appeared as lessee of the Coal Company\u201ds property, the rentals from which only added to the Steel Company\u2019s difficulties which in 1903 approached a crisis.However, men were found who were not afraid to come to the Steel Company's assistance with counsel, with resolute service, and with money.When the SYDNEY.first mortgage bonds of the COMIPADY Wer, selling about fifty, an issue of one and a half million dollars second mot gage bonds was taken up at per, and with the money thus provided the billet and rod and rail mills and other necessary er- tensions to the plant were constructed and the industry was saved from oollayme.What Sydney and the country gener- all y owe to the men who came to the rescue of the Dominion Iron & Btee] Company at that critical juncture may not perhaps be realized in this genern- tion, Mr.J.H.Plummer, president of the company, has become the recognized leader of this band.Associated with him in struggle and in success were many of the men who still direct the company's affairs.Amongst the familiar nam s are Mr.William McMaster, of the Mort- real Rolling Mills; Mr.Elias Rogers, a well known authority on coa] minin- Mr.Frederick Nicholls, of the Canadian General Electric Company; the Hon.I.J.Forget, David MoKcen and Robe Mackay and George A.Cox, senators and Sir William Van Horne, chairman of the Board of the Canadian Pacific Ra.way Company.To say that the career of the company has been watched with the keenest interest by many thousands of peuple of all classes in all parts of tic Dcminion is only to quote a truism.There is no industrial concern of recent times that has caused so widespread an interest in Canada, or that has been discussed day after day to ec great a length in the columns of th: daily press.The policy of Mr.Plummer and their confrères has been one that has met with general approval.and the confidence shown in them was exhibited at the adjourned annual meeting this week, when the directors had nn fewer than 174,000 proxies placed with them, while those present not only received the annual report with en

take pupil nurses for saternity work unless they are taking, or have taken, a regular three years\u2019 course in some general hospital.Then, they give a course of three or four months.A nurse of this kind is then competent to take charge of any sort of case.In some of the smaller hospitals a course in obstetric nureing is given which lasts from a year to eighteen months.This quali- fles o nurse simply for materaity work, HAIR TONIC.\u2018Subscriber\u2019 asks for the composition of the bair tonic, sp often referred to in this column, which contains tincture of cantharides.Asks also how it should be applied.Asks, too, what color walnut juice will dye the heir, and how it should be applied.Ans.\u2014The formula of this tonie, which is not gold under any particular name, but must be compounded by the chemist from the prescription, is as follows: Tincture of canthapbdes,two drachms; resorcin, three drachms: compound tino- ture of cinchcpa, three drachums; castor oll, two drachms; oil of bergamot, eight drops; rectified spirits to make eight ounces.This ie to be applied once daily.The hair should be parted with the fingers and the tonic applied directly to the scalp, especially where the hair is becoming grey o rthin.The nthe ecalp should be gently massaged with the flat of the fingere.Walnut juice will stain the hair a deep brown.It should be applied to the hair, preferahly by dipping the hair into it.Keep it off the skin, Or, you may apply # with the hand, which is to be protected with a rubber glove.\u2014 ULCERATED MOUTH.\u2018Subecriber, H.C.D.\u2019 is a married woman, 28 years of age.She is troubled with ulceration of the mouth, having as many as five or six ulcers on the tongue and 1ips all at once.Amns.\u2014You are probably suffering from what is known as aphthous stomatitis.This is an irritating and obstinate affection.Most case: are attributable to some slight disorder of the gastro-intestical tract.The condition fs predisposed to by any imperfection in the teeth, If your teeth are broken or carious, have them attended to.Then use some antiseptic mouth-wash, night and morning.Listerine, one part; water,three parts, makes a good one.As the ulcers begin to form touch them with a stick of lunar cavstic or a hit of alum, Live plainly and keep the bowels moving daily.\u2018When the trouble shows signe of reappearing take a dose of salts at once.OEDEMA OR DROPSY.T.J.C.is an Englishman, who \u2018has been in this country two months, He has had oedema or dropsy Jn the feet and legs, and it is now coming on again.He has been told that this was due to the climate, and has Leen advised to return home.Wishes for advice, Ans.\u2014Jt is, of course, hard \u2018to advisé youmwithout knowing all the features of your case.It is, in my opiniop hardly likely that any change of climate could alone be the cause of dropsy.I should infer from our letter that you have.had it in England before coming here.If so, to return to England would not likely better matters.I should think it would be wiser to undergo treatment here for a time and see how you get along.Then, if you fail to get relief after a fair trial you might consider the advisability of going back.Much will, of course, depend on the cause within yourself, and whether it can be removed.HEART DISEASE.\u2018Subscriber\u2019 is a married woman, sixty- five years of age.Eight years ago she had a severe attack of inflammation.Has never been well since, though she does her housework part of the time.Has been told that she has disease of the muscle of the heart.Three vears ago the middle toes of the left feot became numb, and since then all the toes of the feet have become the same, She al=o has pein in the feet at night She is unable to stand the least cold.Is very nervous and unable to sleep at night.She bas catarrh and bronchitis, and raises nome phlegm.She had pain in the stomsach and bowels, and is sometimes constipated.She fcels depressed in the mornirg, Her ankles are also swollen, and se has burning pain in the back.Ans.\u2014It seems likely from your description of your case that your heart is weak, and probably also your blood vessels are out of order.I hope you are constantly under vour dnc- tor\u2019s care, for the condition should not be neglected.You should, of course, rest a great deal on your back.Give up work altogether for scme weeks.Keep the legs bandaged with flannel from the feet to above the kree.Do not wr too tightly.Every night bathe the feet and legs with hot water.Dress warmly and avoid exposure to wind, wat, and cold.Keep the bowels open daily by injections of scap and hot water.Use a fountain douche and about a quar.of thin soap suds.Diet must be plain Do not drink freely.mepmar\u2014 HAIR DYES.\u2018Enquirer\u2019 wrote some weeks ago in regard to hair tonics and dyes and was told that a stain made from walnut shells was an old and reliable dye for the hair, devoid of harmful properties.She asks how to make the stain from walnuts, as she has \u2018hitherto failed in this.Also, if the dye will stand washing.She wishes to know, too, what is harmful in the dyes ordinarily sold for the hair, and if any of them will do harm if applied to the hair alone, and not to the scalp, Ans.\u2014Some of the hair dyes on the market contain salts of lead.The constant use of =uch a lection might in fime cause chronic lead poisoming, which is a verv serious matter.The danger ts probably not great i* the êve is not allawed to touch the scalp, but it is rather Adifficult to avoid this.It is probable that your difficulty in making a dye from walnut shells is due to your using the ripe shells.Get green walnuts and try again.Green butternuts may Also be used, if you cannot get the other.Boil the green shells for an hour, using sufficient of them to make an almost black fluid.Then filter through linen.Add one part of alcohol te five parts of the decoction, so that it will keep.The stain wlll stand washing.ACNE.X.\u2014An old subscriber's daughter would like to know a cure for spots on the face, They are not exactly pimples, for a red Jump forms under the skin and keeps

people between the ages © fifteen andi twenty-five.At this time the glands of the ekin ere very active and there is en excessive amount of eecretion.Owing to chemical changes, perhaps induced by bacteria, the tion becomes hard and dry, plugging up the small ducts.Then follows frritation and inflammation.You will fina .that as you get older the trouble will pass away.Occasionally, the eecretion gels very dry end the dust accumulates on the surface forming à little black spot at the summit of a swelling.This is called & \u2018blackhead.\u2019 You will find the following treatment useful.Every night befgre retiring wash the face with very hot water for five minutes, until the skin à thoroughly soft and red.Then, before a mir- t ror, squeeze out any blackheads or spots \u2019 you see between the thumb and finger Those that dave not come to a bead may $ be punctured with a clean sewing-needie.3 Then apply a lotion consisiing of a salu- i rated solution of! boracic acid in

age.She has a good constitution and cau stand a good deal of hard work.She is very pale and thin, She does not sleep very quokly after retiring, but keeps moving, and twitching.She eats fairly well, fut does not care much for meat, and aoee not take any milk except on cereal.She drinks strong tea and eats tea-leaves.She also eats a good deal of granulated sugar.\u2018She has such a craving for such things that she will eat bath-brick, burnt eggshells, and even the dust off the road.She talks as if she would like to break tbe > habit but does not seem to have the requisite amount of will-power.When she does mot do it for a day, she seems to miss it and gets irritable and nervous.Otherwise she is a particularly bright and intelligent woman.Ans.\u2014I fear jt will be difficult to cure your friend.Sometimes these depraved appetites are the expression of a constitutional disorder, such as anaemia.As you say she is pale, this may be a factor in her case.Try her on Blaud's pills, one after each meal, for two or three weeks.Her bowels must be kept open daily with cascara.If possible she should take a trip where she would not | find it easy to indulge in the habit, and where she would find congenial friends | i e ekin email-; / sie moe det res ge rr or me ES and pursuits to take her attention off herself, A cea voyage would be the very best thing for her.Of course, unless she can fight the habit herself the difficulty of cure ls made greater.If everything fails, she should be sent to some sanltarium and ' he kept under close supervision.The habit ig a pernicious .one and may do her much harm.Encourage ber to eat meat, eggs and soups.\u2014 | APANESE BASKETS For your Waste Paper in Office or Home.MORTON,PHILLIPS & CO.Stationers, Blank Book Makers and Priaters 118-117

WITNESSED FUR- \" THER IMPORTANT INCIDENTS, \u2014 Much importance is attached by local politicians to an interview which toox place at the government offices, yesterday afternoon, between the Hon.Mr.Weir and several members of the legislature, among whom were Messrs, Peter Mackenzie, G.Langlois, Walsh, Dr.La- combe, Dr.Lemieux, Decarie, and Mous- seau.Some say that this meeting wes en: tirely accidental, but the general opinion is that concerted action was taken upon information being received that the Hen.Mr.Gouin would probably bring up the question of filling the vacancies in the government at the morning\u2019s meeting of the Cabinet in Quebec, A movement on the part of a deputation of labor leaders, who called upon Mr.Perrault, M.P.P., for Chambly, during the forenoon, also helped to prompt the afternoon meeting, several of the members: of this district wishing to place their views on the situation before the only member of the Cabinet present in Montreal.- The deputation who called upon Mr.Perrault, informed him that they expected to place a good number of candidates in the field, and that several members of the labor party would occupy seèts in the Hext legislature of the province.Mr.Perrault is reperted to have given the delegates to understand that he would assume the direction of the new party, but it is not known whether or not he intends to do so as an auxiliary to the present administration.It seems certain, anyhow, that the member for Chambly is quite opposed to the idea that the Prime Minister should go outside the House to select his new colleagues, when he claims there are existing local members perfectly competent to assume the duties and responsibilities of a portfolio.Be this as it may, the generality of those who attended yesterday afternoon\u2019s conclave expressed the opinion that the | Gervais-Beland combination already referred to was a good one, and if it could be carried into effect, the ministry would be strengthened.e opinion was also expressed that the entrance in the Cabinet of the member for Montmorency, Mr.Taschereau, law partner of ex-Pre- mier Parent, would much displease the government\u2019s legislative supporters in this part of the province.It was ako mentioned that Mr.Gervais\u2019 nomination would get over certain jealousies which the appointment of a member of the present House might entail.The \u2018Canada,\u2019 government organ.makes no mention of the above meeting.Mr.Gervais stated yesterday that he did net know how his name came to be mentioned in comnection with local polities.: On the other hand.the Hon.Mr.Weir is reported to have raid that although he knew nothing about the rumored entrance of Mr.Gervais and Mr.Beland in the Cabinet.and the choice of ministers is

anybody is sick or anything happens, I am sure that it would be more useful to me than'\u2014and she turned to.the prescribed course of study\u2014\u2018than spherical trigonometry and navigation.\u2018What is the use of my studying navigation?But we cannot run for the doctor every time anybody eneezes or coughs, and I weuld like to know what to do for anyone who is © little sick.Here is a matter concerning which young women need Some simple but careful instruction.But who gives them any?As daughters in the family, they can repeat the dates, of the Grecfan and Roman wars, work out an intricate problem in algebra, and give the technical names of all the bones in the body; but if the baby brother left in their charge burns his hand or js seized with oroup, how many of them know the best thing to do while waiting for the doctor?And when, as wives and mothers, the duties of .| shine.lite fnerease, how many o! them have anv practical knowledge which will help them to meet calmly and intelligently the everyday experience of accidents and illness which are jinevitable in every family?\u2014 \u2018Christian Globe,\u2019 \u2014\u2014 Cheery People.Oh, the comfort of cheery people.There is but one thing like them\u2014that is sun- The sun makes everybody glad.Even the avimals run and leap, and seem more joyous when it shines out: and no human being can be so cross-grained, or so ill, that he does not brighten up a 1little when a great, broad, warm sunbeam streams over him, and plays on his face.It is just so with a cheery person.His simple presence makes even animals happier.Dogs know the difference between him and a surly man.When he pats them on the head, aud speaks to them, they jump and gambol about him jnst as they do in the sunshine.And when he comes into the room where people are ill, or out of sorts, or dull and moping, they brighten up, in spite of themselves, just in\u2014only more so; for we often see peoples so il] they do not care whether the sun sFines or not, or so cross that they do not even care whether the sun shines or not: j but I have never yet seen: anybody so cress or so {ll that the voice and face of a cheery person does lot\u2019 make him brighten up a little.People who have done things which have made them famous, such as winning great battles or filling high offices, cften have what are called \u2018ovations.\u2019 Hundreds cf people get together and make a great procession, perhaps, to g6 into a great hall and make speeches, all to.show that they recognize what the great.man has done.After he is dead they build a stone monument to him, perhaps, and celebrate his birthday for a few years: Men work very hard, sometimes for a whole lifetime, to earn a few things of this sort.But how much greater a thing it would be for a man to have every man, woman and child in his owr.town know and love his face becayse it was full of kindly, good cheer! Such a man has a-perpetuai \u2018nvation,\u2019 year in and year out, whenever he walks in the street, whenever he enters a friend's house.\u2018I jist likes to let her in at the door,\u2019 said an Irish servant one day, of a woman I know, whose face was always cheery and bright; \u2018the face of her does one good, shure,\u2019 If there was a recipe\u2014a sure and certain recipe\u2014for making a cheery.person, we would all be glad to try it.There is no such recipe, and perhaps if there were, It 1s not quite certain we would all thy it.It would take time and trouble.Cheeriness cannot be taught liké writing, \u2018in twenty lesscns\u2019; nor analyzed, and classified, and set forth in a manual, such as \u2018The Art of Polite Conversation,\u2019 or \u2018Etiquette Made Easy for Ladies and Gentlemen.\u2019 I believe that it is, in the outset, à good gift from God at one's birth, very icuch dependent on one's body, end a thing to be more profoundly grateful for than all that genius ever inspired, or talent ever accomplished.This is natural, spontanecus, inevitable cheeriness.This, it we were not born with it, we cannot have.But next best ty this is deliberate, intended and persigient cheeriness, which we can create, can cultivate, and can so foster and cherish that after a few years the world will never suspect that it was not a hereditary gift handed down to us from generations.: To do this we: have only to watch tue cheeriest people we know, and follow their example.We shall see first that the cheery persou never minds\u2014or if he minds, never says a word about\u2014small worries, vexations, perplexities.Second, that he is brimful of sympathy in other people's gladness.He is heartily, genuinely glad of every bit of good luck or joy which comes to other people.Thirdly, he has a keen sense of humor, and never let: any droll thing escape him; he thinks it worth while to laugh, and to make everybody about him laugh, at every amusing thing: no matter how small, he has his laugh, and a good, hearly laugh, too, and tries to make everybody share it, Patience, sympathy and humor\u2014these are the three most manifest traits in thé cheery person.Bit there is something elise, which is more an emotion than a trait, more a state of feeling \u2018than a quality of mind.This is lovingness, This is the secret so far as there is a secret; this is.the real point of difference between the mirth of the witty and sarcastic person, which does no good,and the mirth of the cheery person, which \u2018doeth good iiké a medicine * Somebody ounce agked a great painter, whose pictures were remarkable for their exquisite and beautiful coloring.\u2018Pray Mr.colors?\u2019 \u2018With brains, madam-with brains,\u2019 growled the painter.His ill-nature spoke a truth.All men had, ov might have, the colors he used; but no mau produced the colors be produced.So I would say of cheeriness.Patience, sympathy and humor are -the colors: but patience may be mere dogkedness and reticence; sympathy may be wordy and sLallow, and selfish, and humor may be only a sharp perception of.the ridiculous.Orly when they are mixed with love\u2014love three times love \u2014 do we\u2019 have the true good cheer of genuine cheery people,\u2014\u2018The , how do vou mix your | Christian Globe,\u2019 : as they do when a sudden sunbeam pours Sarorpay, Ocroser 12, jane Health Hints.TREATMENT OF BURNS.Large superficial burns are more dangerous than small deep ones, unless the latter are over a vital organ.As a rule, the amount af skin destruction measures the danger.Children succumb more readily to burns than adults, while women are more sensitive to them than men.Promptness of treatment has much fluence on the outcome.Burns upon the abdomen give the greatest mortality.In few difficulties is early attention more imperative than in burns, hence the 1in- ledge ampng the laity on the subject, that semething effective may often be done wbile waiting for the physician.The white of egg beaten up with sweet oil and bicarbonate of soda makes a Very soothing application, protecting the surface from the air.If sweet oil is not at hand linseed or any other vegetable oil will do.It js well to have ready for application to burns of not very large extent, an ointment compounded as follows; Ichthyol ointment, one ounce; carbolized petrolatum, one ounce; zinc ointment, one ounce; éub- nitrate of bismuth, one drachm; powdered opium, one drachm.This ointment may be applied freely and will be found to give almost immediate relief.If a burned hand or foot is plunged at once into a basin of water into which a few spoonfuls of powdered saltpetre are placed, the pain often ceases at once.If it return, adding fresh cool water and more saltpetre will again stop it.Follow this with one of the preparations mentioned, and you will be doing a great deal fer the comfort of the patient.- If the patient is much shocked by the burn, give a teaspoonful of aromatic spirits of ammonia in some cool water and apply to points not burned hot water bags.Do this especially when there is chilliness and send for your physician at once.\u2014 \u2018Good Housekeeping.\u2019 COLD.Drinking cold water when one has a cold coming on is one of the best remedies, because it stimulates the system and helps to wash out poisons formed in the body.Living on fruit for two or three days and drinking hot or cpld water freely, with milk for nourisbmént, will often cure an ordinary eeld if taken in time.The old proverb, \u2018stuff a cald and starve a fever,\u2019 is a contradictory one, for a cold is a fever.People suffering from a cold and continuing to eat Heartily of beefsteak, r.utton chops, roast pork and similar foods are eimply adding fuel to the flames as surely as on2 who pours oil où a fire.Such heating {ood stimulates the morbid processes at work in the body, and, far from curing the disease, makes it worse.\u2014 The Methodist Protestant.\u2019 \u2014 \u2014 For the Housekeeper.UNEXPECTED GUESTS.\u2018The woman who does her own work is scmetimes in danger of gliding into an attitude of shrinking from gucets,\u2019 says ! Mary Stewart Cutting, in \u2018Harper's Bazar.\u2019 Very mistakenly she feels thal when she canrot offer the perfection of employed service to her friends she does not care to ask them to her table.Thus the man of the house too often has to re- ncunce the privilege dear to his heart, of bringing home a chance guest.When young aud inexperienced he cherishes the illusion that he can do this at any time without warning, and it takes a series of bitter lessons to convince him that he is Not free ir: this regard, and even if he sends word to his wife that oue of his old college friends has happened in and that he is bringing him out to dinner, he may be making a terrible blunder.\u2018It is.always a pity\u201d when this stage is reached.The man who comes to the point where he is afraids to invite a friend bome with him when he pleases has lost something beside the privilege.A cer- \u2018tain degree of confidence in his wife's ability to meet emergencies, in her eagerness to give him pleasure is gone.\u2019 HOW TO TELL CUT GLASS.This valuable note was given by a man working ia one of the best known glass hcuscs in the Eaet: Many womer have beautiful pieces of glassware which they think gentine cut glass, yet ther» are many hundreds of pieces which are only clever imitations, and there is only one known means whereby even an expert: can detect the genuine from the imitation.If you will move your fingers along the inside of a piece of cut glass vou will observe that the surface is perfectly emooth, while little indentations wil] be found in the blown glass.\u2018This is caused by the shrinkage of the glass after the pieces are blown.The roughness is vo- ticeable nor from looks, but the slight indentations over the surface.Heavy glass and glass with cut edges are no indication of the ware being genuine cut glass, for it is now porsible to blow glass several irches thick, while the deceptive cut edge fs done with powerful chemicals.«In purchasing any cut glass, if you will remember to carefully examine the inside as berein mentioned, you can eatisfy yourseif that you are not paying for something which is Dot genuine, and there are more imitations on the market than one might suppose.\u2014\u2018Woman\u2019s National Daily.\" COVER THE MATTRESS.If your mattress is a new one, make two white slips, just the right size, with a v two-inch lap at one end, importance of disseminating useful know- On this lap work 4 Advertisements, BABY AND MOTH uv | A few doses of Baby's oo reheves and cures const.t tion, coae.diarrhoea, aug «oy.| The Tablets break up colds and bring the little teeth leesly.They bring hea} one and comfort to the mo \u2018 have the guarantee of à 1 - .alvst that this med:cin- \u2018 tain one particle 01 oprat soothing stuff.Mrs | Ont.says: \u2018Baby's Ow, | best medicine | have ov.» mach and bowel trouble.| worms.\u201d Rold by all ne!
