Mr. Tiffany, in a Icngt.liy aigu- luent. in the coirrsc of wliicli lie cited a jiumber of legal precedents, cmiteadtd that the evidcBce adduced fully snstauied the first find second grounds of the appeals; tiiat the statute only permitted three clas.scs of appeals to a Court of Revision, Is't, the parly a.s.sessod; 2nd, a muni oipal elector dCisLring to raise nn- ethex's assessment ; 3rd the as- isess'jr; that the mai^icipal corpora- tion could not Ixî considered as a “Municipal Eiector,” etc., etc. Mr. Costello replied. A.t the conclusion of the argument, which was listened to with interest by a number of ratepayers, His Hon- or held itihat Mr. Tiffany’s objections were well taken; that no appeal against the appellants’ assessments as made by the assos.sor had as a matter of law and fact been pro- perly made to tlie Court of Revision; that the Court of Revision in pre- suming tio take such action upon sucli appeiils had exceeded Its juris- diction, and tha t the api)cLlant;s were fully ju'.^tified in appealing to him. He, therefore, nj.towcd their appeal, and set aside the increase of as.scss ments made by ihe Court cf Revi- sion and restored the original assess ments as made by Mr. Urquhart. Uis Honor Judge Liddell in giv- Lng judgment, took occasion to ex- press his entire disa^iproval of tlie council in directing the Court of Revision, which is a quasi-judicial body, fio alter the assessment roll.

One day last week, five trains were in the yard at the same time—two way freights, two wpst bound through freights and a bal- laist ti-ain. It is e.stimatcd that in all there were about 175 cars.

Mr. Tiffany, in a Icngt.liy aigu- luent. in the coirrsc of ‘ wliicli lie cited a jiumber of legal precedents, cmiteadtd that the evidcBce adduced

fully snstauied the first find second grounds of the appeals; tiiat the statute only permitted three clas.scs of appeals to a Court of Revision, Is't, the parly a.s.sessod; 2nd, a muni oipal elector dCisLring to raise nn- ethex's assessment ; 3rd the as- isess'jr; that the mai^icipal corpora- tion could not Ixî considered as a “Municipal Eiector,” etc., etc. Mr. Costello replied.

A.t the conclusion of the argument, which was listened to with interest by a number of ratepayers, His Hon- or held itihat Mr. Tiffany’s objections

were well taken; that no appeal against the appellants’ assessments as made by the assos.sor had as a

matter of law and fact been pro-

perly made to tlie Court of Revision; that the Court of Revision in pre-

suming tio take such action upon sucli appeiils had exceeded Its juris- diction, and tha t the api)cLlant;s were fully ju'.^tified in appealing to him. He, therefore, nj.towcd their appeal, and set aside the increase of as.scss

ments made by ihe Court cf Revi-

sion and restored the original assess

ments as made by Mr. Urquhart. Uis Honor Judge Liddell in giv-

Lng judgment, took occasion to ex-

press his entire disa^iproval of tlie

council in directing the Court of

Revision, which is a quasi-judicial

body, fio alter the assessment roll. The appeal of Mcs.srs’. Miller a.ndj

Campuell, being cn similar grounds,

;Was also alloived.

C. A. R. Notes

Lumber is being brought m over the C.vnafla Atlantic. The Carriage Works use ,rbour fi. car a day and Mr. Sohel! about llirec cars a week.

Workmen arc engaged erecting and fencing the new stock yard.s at the Istatien, on the lots north of the Itrack, 'imrch.isad last Xovemixir from Mr. J. G. McNaughtoai. The yard .when cemploted will h.ive three chutes, and will be larger and more

complete, than tlie iirescnt .jumpijig cn place, lor our felloivs of tlie brute creatie.a.

Weekly, ihe need for Increased yard acooimmc<bition at the depot is Incoming apparent, but ii U hoped that .this state of «.onjasUon will be short lived as it i.s expected that a Biding that wilt hold sixty-live cars will be laid till? fa;!l, immediately west of the Military Road.

One day last week, five ■ trains

were in the yard at the same

time—two way freights, two wpst

bound through freights and a bal-

laist ti-ain. It is e.stimatcd that in

all there were about 175 cars.

Agent Shepherd and his assistant.s

mai»oeuvred them wi.th such ifkill, that each and all were, sent on their

respective ways intact. The cros-sing

The Cashier-'.l.’hc name of D. A. (McPherson is called to mind by al- most every al.lusion to banking in Dea'dwood and the Black Hills. It has proven to bo synonymous with careful, conscientious business and honicr. The polished, dignified, cour tcous gcntlcm'an who has loccn ca|shier of the First National Bank of Deadwood, almost from its in- ceiJ't'ion ; (who for upwards of twelve years represented ills (tlic second) w;ard Of the city of Deadwood in the city council and looked after tlae a-ffairs of his ward and tho city at lar|ge vviith such ability that he came to be rega.rded as almost the soul ot the council ; who was for several years a ccmanls.sioincr of Riwrenoe County 'and a's such, gained a record tha'f has never been aiiproached, continues in the position lie lias held So 'long as casliic'r and direc- tor Of the ba;nk.

;AIr. IMctPherson has grown grey m the banking business, but he has at the same time grown strong in tive estimation of those who re oogni.zc and a|pi)ncciate his great sense bf fairness and his desire to be hl-wfays right and just.

Dairy Notes

Slow milking is an injury. E.xcltomcnt of any kind is bad and

reduces 4hc milk flow. A cow should never be allowed to

go back in her milking. The surest way to have good cows

is to raise them your.sel£. The o.irly development of the dairy

qualiiie/i in the heifer is the excuse for breeding early.

The deeper the milk is set the loss airing the cream gets while rising.

Cream makes better butter to rise, in cold air than to rise in cold wa- ter.

Rapid milking is an advantage if it is dene wiibcui. hurting or irr’it.rt- ing the cow and she is milked clean.

For mercantile cream, the centri- fugal machine is preferablo, securing tne greaterst quantity in the best manner.

The estimated va^uo of .skim milk ter feeding purp-osB.s is about 25c. per himdrcd pounds or about one- half the value of a’bushel of corn.

The better way is to salt butter In the churn while it is in the gran- ular form and still charged with water from the wusliing.

Four pounds of butter are reckon- ed as an average season’s make Irom 10Ü xiDunds of average ini.lk, and ten pounds of cheese from tlio same quantity of milk.

Milking slifjuid lie Hone and the juJk kept only where the snrround- mg air is pure and free from all objectionable and tainting odors as milk very readily .absorbs any odor

-or taint. Only the licst and pure s.ilt of

medium and unifcrin finenes.s ot grain should be used when dry .salt- ing is practised, and from ihree- quartcr.s tu ojic ounce per pound of butter will be satisfactory during the summer.

NOTE—On referring to R.egulatLon 20 Tn the Statutes and Regula- tions of the Education Department 1901, we find that the requirements of ca,ndidates for admis.sion to tire High Schools, were, ‘^hat any can- didate ,w,ho o,btaincd one-third of tlie marks in, eacli subject and onc- half cf the aggregate marks, shall be considered as h,avin,g pa.ssed the examination,’’(High School Entrance). In the last Reviised Regula- tions of the Education Department 1904, Subsection 29, Section 27, reads “Any candidate who obtains 40 per cent, in. cacti suibject, and 00 per cent, cf the aggregate mark», shall he considered as having pa.sscd the, ex ion. ”

In the inst Entrance Examination the aggregate marks were 650, cine-half would be 32o, and 00 per cent. 390—a difference of 05 marks, which the pupils who were examined ibis year Iiad to make un. It will be Ecc-n that under the former Regulation, many who failed this year, would now be the possessors of H. S. Entrance Certificates and those who secured certificates, even with the minimum standing, should, judg in,g from former istandards, be entitled to honor standing. A further attondan(x; of a year in the home school, will prepare tlie pupils who were not succes.sful at Die last Enti'ance Examination, to pass at Ihc next, ,ctiid they will be able to do better High Scliocl work, than they would, If now if admitted.

MEMO—The reason the enclosed reports were not sent in time for last week’s Ne,ws, was that Mr. James McDonald, M.A., H. M, H. S. tVil- llamstown, w-ho is now e,xamincr 'at. the Departmental Examination at Torointo, in returning the Report cf Rasults seat him did. not add to the address, CJ. of Glengarry^thc w.ord Maxvijl<^ was by the Depart- mental Clerks supposed to: mean ManviJlc, and ilio letter was lorwar ded to that iM>st office.

Reception at Martintown

One cf t.he pJtHisantcst and most s.'ucc'e^sful sccwl events of tlie seat sen tcc,k plvcc on V/ednesday even- ing, at the residence of Mi*. May, being a reception jjiven in lionor of Mls's McGrea^or, of tlie Birth; Indian Fchcol, by the young* ix'ople of tlie Lb'csbyteriiui Cliuwlics of this town..

The evening being fine, the young- er niemlKî.r.s of the iKir{.y ifound uni- ^'sement on the iawfl, tastefully dcccruLed and ||]iifpipated for the occasion, w.hile the ojijcr ones imssed the ti.me i)le«isantly and pro- fitably with music and conversation wJ.thin doors.

Miss McGrcgcr, who has ,si>ciU the past two years in Indian work in the North West, st;emed delighted to be once more amon^? her old friends and wa.s much touciicd by the en- ihuiSi.ûsUc welcome accorded her on her return to her old homo.

Before separuUny for the niglit, Rev. Mr, Cameron, in, a, few well chci.8,eii rc'Uiarks, as,sured Miss Mc- Gregor cf the interest felt by all her old friends in the prOigres.s of Indian education, not only in the schO'Ol with which she is immediately ccnccrned, but threugbout the cn-' tire wc;st.

I At the earnest icquest of those I asicmblcd, Miss McGregor gave a

short but interesting account of the work of the school.

After singing, ‘’Blest be tlie tie that binds,” and prayer by Rev. Mr. Cameron, the cpinpany dispersed well pleased with the succ<iss of tlie evening.

Picnic

' A jolly party of young ladies and gentlemen picnicked in Mcl’liee’s grove on Friday. The start from toiwn w\Ts made from Mr. Gilixirt’s boat hiouic, where boats conveyed the party to the grove.

A pleasant i>rograinmc of games, etc., was indulged, in after which rtef reshments were served by the ladies.

On the return, a short jaunt was taken on (he lake, occupying an hour or so, during w'hich, the merry ring ot laughter and the joyous notes of sang were wafted across the placid waters.

The young ladles, wlio had charge of the ouung, arc to be congra- tulated cn ;h-' pliasanl time pro- videU, ,

NoKv comes a story of lightning striking an! editor .-met burning up

“a big roll of $10 bills in; his poc- ket.” Me regard the story with some suspicion ; there might have been a big roll of thunder around; buti editors d,on’t tempt lightming that way. -

The American truth-teller was in form. “Talking of ants,” he said, “iwq’vo got ’em as hig as crabs out Wosti. I guess I’ve seen ’em fight with long thorns, whic.h’ they used as lances, charging each other like savages»”

“They don’t compare to the ants I saw in . the East,” said an inoffen- sive individual near by. “The natives have trained them as beasts of burden. One of 'em could trail a ton load for miles with case. They worked willingly, but occasionally tliey turned on tbeir attendants and killed them.”

Rut ïhjs wui's drawing the long- bow, n little too far.

“I say, old chap,” said a shocked voice from the corner, “what sort of ants wpro they ?”

“Elephants,” said the quiet man.

The signs put up by “sma’ mcr- cba;nts” in bcotfand are often very amusing. An Aberdeen sign ran —• “Fresh Buti'tcr and Eggs Laid Here Daily by B,etsy Smith.” Another not far distant was—“Peats, Coals, and Other Groceries Sold Here.” In an East Lothian town an unnoun((ement was printed—“Balls and Mar-iagc Parties Purveyed.”

“I’m up ttgainst it," said the wall- (paper.

“Hard luck,” replied the horseshoo over the door.

en’t any kick. Everything is all write for mine.”

“Oil, shut up,” shouted the windoav* sihiuttcrs.

hereupon ihc gan became very angry and after flaring up, got hot under the collar, and, saying that he refused tb throw any light on the mattcir, went out—Life

Dr. Hugo’s Health Tablets Hit the Right Spot

When a •woman gets all run down, feels tired and out of sorts it is pretty harc^to tell what part of irârpecufiar organism is caus- ing the trouble.

She takes different medicines, but they do her little good. They don’t hit the right spot.

It is useless, for exampk, tak- ing a stimulant to heal inflamma- 6on or correct jn irregularity.

Whit the exception of Dr. Hu- go’s Health Tablets for Women, no compound remedy for the fe- male sex exists to-é&y. By com- pemnd remedy we mean one con- taining the alterative and tonic medical ingredients necessary to regulate and strengthen every organ of the fémale system.

And Æat is just what these tablets do.

In taking the ordinary rente-- dies yon may miss the veryingre- dients your sysitem requires. These tablets contain every in- gredient. They go to the weak spot wherever it may be.

It is not necessary to guess at the cause of the trouble and per- haps take the wrong medicine half a dozen times. It is not nec- essary to even know exactly the cause of the trouble.

Dr. HugoiS remedy contains something for every organ of the female system ; something for the stomach to help indigestion— for the bowels to cure constipa- tion—for the nervous system to tone up the nerves—for the liver and kidneys to make them active in carrying off impurities—some- thiijg for the uterine system to stop alldrains, allay inflammation and make women regular.

The tablets are sure to go to the right spot and get there the first time.

The remedy is now recognized beyond doubt or question as the best adapted to the special needs of sick and run-down women, no matter what the cause.

EDITORIAL NOTES.

Tlic Boyal Family of Great Brit- ain is not in tlie race suicide class.

You couldn’t keep even a dredge ibearlng the name 'Sir AVilfrid Ttown very long. '

There will Ije no excuse now for the Yankees stopping any member of the House of Commons or Sen- ate at the lines bccapse be has no visible means of support.

The Sonate is a i>oor scorer but a. great finisher. In the earlier stages of the acasom it merely met cccasicinally and adjourned, while in

the last hours it sat up nights.

That J.hc 'national credit of the Dominion stands higher to-day than

it has ever done, is evidesneed by the floating of a temporary loan of IjÊGOO.OOO sterling 'a,t ‘ the exception- ally low, rate of 2 1-4 per cent.

At the athletic sports at Birming ham, Kng., H. A. Hyman, of Pen- nsylvania University, beat the Eng- lish record for the 300 yard run. He has a namesake in Canada who made a record run not sc long ago.

A new, edition of the Ontario game laws was issued last Friday by or- der of the MiuUter of Public Works, and may be had on application to the department. A comprehensive in- dex i,3 provided and the names and

addresses of the commissioners and wardens are included.

Only four of the fathers of Con-

federation survive—Sir Charles Tup- per. Sir Hector Langevin, Senator A. A. McDondld, of Prince Edward Is-

land, Sir Ambrose Shea| of Ee-wfound land. Sir Ambrose Shea, is 87, Sir Charles was B4 on July 12, Sir Hec

tor Lanigcvin is 73, and Senator Me

Donald, 7C.

Çlihu_ Root has given up a Taw practice worth ?200,000 per annum

to accept the office of U. S. Sec- retary of State, and James B,. Dill of New, Jersey, a grc.at corporation

huvyer, sacrifice aji 'income of $300,- 00 to become Judge of the Court

of Error and Appeals. îïcre are examples of selC-sacrifices îrom a-h

unexi>ected source that the salary- grabbing legi,5lators at Ottawa

tihould take note of.

Referring to Mr. Dryden, The

Evening Journal says—“If a vacancy occurs Hon. Mr. Dryden. is particu- larly well qualified and undoubtedly the best man the Government could get to fill the position. As a result of several year»’ experience as Min- ister^ of Agriculture for Ontario he has a thorough knowledge of ugri-.

cultural naa.ttens, both at home and

abro'Ud. He takes a deep interest in those influences which lead to upi-

liXting farm life.” ’

“The blow lias fallen. The threat of the excited few at election time has been cabled out in cold blood by a majority of license commi.ssion CTS—and in the name of J.ibcral-Con EOTvatism (?) the commis-sloners have “got even” with Irish .Tack— and his wife apd family.

“Tte-dny the Hotel Rnnkiii—unques tiomably one of the lar,;ost and best kojit commercial houses in the whole of AV'estern ,0)nitario—is without a li- teense,

“It is idle to argue that there is any other rca,son to be' advanced for the action than that of i>oUtics. True, the commissioners dcelincd. of- ficially to give any reason—and they

were within their legal right in so doing. This w'as, iierhap.s, fortunate

for them—but they have gon* on re- cord in an outraged public sentiment among a people who know tile house

and know', the man. “This journal, as uu exponent of

the iirinciplos of the Conservatives and an a,dmirin,g adherent of the policy enunciated by Hon. Mr. Han- na, deeply deplores the action 'tak-

en. Hoiw the commissioners, in view

of the tremendous iiublic sentiment

existing in the ranks of - Consoawa-

t'lsm in our constituency, .would pro

ccod .as they have <k>,ne, is iicyond our ken. Surely so strong an ex- pression as wa.s evidenced in tlie po- sition of tile county .and city coun- cil and the stand of such iKitent

Conservatives exponents as Mes.srs. Mason Campbell, William jlell. Dr.

J. L. Bray, Reeve Cornelius Purser, of Dover, County .Commissioner J.

Chinnick, of Raleigh, and hundj-cds of others, should have had some con sidération at the hands of tlie board.

“That the action \vps Taken m the name of tlie Coniscrvative party is deplorable. The Conservatives of

iWest Kent repudiate it.” It may he all very well to rail at

the license commissioners but the fault: lies nearer Toronto. If these

men had not been thrust in their positions immediately after The re- cent; election on purely iiolitioal

[grounds more could, be expected of them but coming as official j)irutos, the i>arty must staiiid for their ac-

tion. . .

The Whitney Government is inov-

ing its economy by engaging thirty

road inei)cctors to perform the work that was done by seven under the eld Government. Still Mr. Whit-

ney was wonit to make the welkin

ring about the money paid useless-

ly to foremen on these very roads and bridges.

The latest .rumor in the stock cir- .clo is to tlio effect that Mr. F. AV. Hodson, ■ Canadhin Live Stock Com- missioner, may retire in the course of a few mon tils and be succeeded

by Hon. John Dryden, cx-Minister of Agriculture for Ontario. AVhat Hodson’.s iaiitentions are have not been divulged, but it is thought

that he w'ill j'3in a large private corporation in the United 'States, w'liere he has been offered more than o.he position during tlie p.ast few years at a much larger salary lliaa

ho receives from the Dominion Gov- crnmenlt, ' a salary whi.cb, according to the last repoiit of the Attorney- General, is ?3,000 a year.

A MEAN AFFAIR.

The ciwtham.. Planet, t.ho Conser-

vative organ for Kent, spoke oiit strongly on Saturday in denuncia- tion of the treatment meted out by the ILccnsc commissioners to John Plea.sancü, of the Hotel Rankin.

Here is wihat it says—

tics of water ; and if you drink iced water a.t iill let it, l>c whom you are not overheated, and s'p it very .slow ly*. Ice w'ater has filled many graves.

If 'i-ou wilt cease worrying about how you arc going to get work done, how,you are going to cat and drink, how, you arc going to get sleep, what the weather is to lx; to-morrow, and ho.w-’you .ire going to st.ind it, and bear in mind that things wont along pretty well in this did world before you entered it, and will get along

very likely, a.(ter you are out of it, you may find that a d.cgrce more or less temperature 'doo.sn’t matter so

much. AVhy fuss and fret and stew? Oh, yes! It’s hot enough, hut wor-

ry makes it hotter. Don’t whip up

your heart and spoil your temper and

thought that Christmas is only a

KEEP COOL.

It is not easy to keep cool at this season of the year when the ther- mometer gets uij in the eighties. Those W;ho can afford it may .help tihemsclvcs by going off to the sea-

side or to Muskoka, but the ma- jority of iicoidc aa-e compelled to stay at home ' during the hea.tcd term, and difficult as it may be it is their duty Ito do all thay, can towards keep ing oool. The Hamilton .Times gives the following pertinent advice on this subject—

Don’t overwork. Don’t overplay. And above and before all thin,gs,

don't .worry. Overwork, overiday and wpiu-y, all tax your already hard- worked hoaa't ; and if it' fails you wjia,t ShaR iiroflt all your pecuniary gains or athletic triumphs? AVhat will you have lo worry apout ?

The rate of work performed by the heart varies according to ago, but the hcajthy .heart may bo said to

perform'70 complete beats a, minute

from the time you a,re till the time you ceaise to be. Fi,gure it out. Sev- enty beats a' minute, 4,200 an lour,

100,800 a, d!ay, 30,792,000 a year o,r in a life of sixty years 2,207,52^000 beats. It i>a,sses your blood suppily through the oxy,genatons, the lungs,

and through your sys^tem every half minute of your existence, exerting

to do so a force above atmosphere pressure equal to that exerted by

a column of mercury, from 5.90 to 7.87 inches in lieight. And it docs thi.s work witho,ut cessation ; and if it foes ndt do it well, you suffer ;

if it .stojis to rest, you die.

Severe exercise, physical or mental

shock, intense emotion, .fretting, anx iety, all tell en the heart. The .hot

weather does not make it ivork eas- ier, and you can heli> it-

Don’t fu^. Of course you don’t fuss, but please don’t try to d.o two days’ work in one day. ,AVork is not the end of life. Don’t make work of your play. Don’t wear wrinkles

into your brow, and ecurnes.s into your temiier tecause there’s a fly

in the room, or a, chair out oIpljj.ee.

Your husband would ratiier have you a healthy, lovable wife than t*o knOiW that you are reputed to bo “unutterably orderly and terribly clean.” Don’t sacrifice too much com fert to style. Don’t wear yourself out keeping the children from en- joying life tba.t they may always lock as if they just came out of a

glass case.

And spare your cooking. Most of us overeat, espcciajly in' the hot sea-

,son. Quit everlastingly stewing over the stove, and U'y simple way.s of living. Don’t ingest a lot of heart producing foods. ‘They are worse

Than wasted. Th'Sy spoil your diges tien and cause you discomfort. Keep them till n inter. Eat sparing- ly cf flesh foods; a,void stimulants;

and don’t eat too anuch of anyUiing.

Don’t even gulp .down gre.it quanti

A PLAIN SENSIBLE LETTER.

Now- that the fight on the auton-

omy bill is over, a.nd there is ample

room for good thought, the News

thinks the publication, of the follow'

ing Ictler timely. U .ippeared in the

Toronto New.s and is 'written by Mr.

Channcll, of Sherbrooke, T’. Q., an< English speaking Cooservativej 'one of the beist authorities on the .situa-

tion that could be found. The New'S is personally acqu,Tinted w-ith Mr.

Ch'annelh ^^bd knows that what lie says is never without groat influ-

ence. Here is The letter lo Ibo

News— * “I have hcc'h an admirer of you

and the way you have conducted t he News, until your opposition to the iauttlonomy bills and attack's fm tlie Roman Catholics, more especially in the cartoons published. I know, you must have a wrong idea of existing conditions, or you would not allow your paper to go to such extremes.

, “I have Lived here in' the Eastern iTC'Wnships for over thirty years, a

community about evenly divided be- tween Ebinan'CaithoIi.es and Protest- ante. I speak as a Protestant and one who had always supported, the Conservative candidate. I have stu- died the conditions of this Province £er;.ously, and by travel and investi- gation, compared our condition w'ith that of Ontario and AVestern Canada, as well as ma-nyef the leading states to the south. I do not say that we have perfection, but as a whole our i^'^cm of schools compared îavor- ably, all things co-nsidcred. Our rights as an English and Protestant

minority in Provincial affairs are always respected and we have 'per- fect confidence that this condition of affairs -wiU continue.

“The OonServ.ativc member for this county. Dr. A'v'orthington, supported the Government in the vote on the 'autpnomy bUls. He did not do so

out of fear of losing his next elec (;ion, for the county as a whole is

Protestant, but because the people generally cb-nisidcred nothing was be- ing granted to the Catholic?, that

they-were not entitled to. As a fact, 1 have not heard a, single man con- demn Dr. AVorthingron for his vote on this question, and I am in a

position to know of complaints, if they arc abroad.

“The Protestants of this Province fought hard for the protection of their rights at the time pf Confeder- ation, and .Sir Alexander Galt refus- ed ,to consent to Confederation intil

these right.? had been established again;st any, future misunderstanding lOur in-stinct of “British fair play” demands our support for our French

compatriote of Ijke rights. Those asked for in the autonomy bills do not injure the future progress of the new Province'?, and will not have any bad effect on the schoi/ls of that .country-. , i . : 1 ■«. illâî

‘‘As an English Protestant I have lierfect confidence in my independ- ence for the future, as Canada must always be an English and Protest- ant country, and if the nainority of this Province should at any time have a grievance, I know there is the power behind to protect these rights. This very reason places the minority here in an unpleasant position to have the Protestants of Ontario work up rsuah uncalled for feeling over Bomething in whiai; they have not been asked fer help, or been request- ed tc advise bv the sections more directly concerned.

“-I was in holies that the attacks on the Roman C.’tholi.c religion would stop and a more sane method be adopted by .‘.lie News and other Ontario iiaiiers a.s soon as the vote was over, but 1 regret some very un- fair cartoons arc still Uf«'d. If our Roman Catholic (riends should at- tack Protestants in the .same manner w'e would have a civil war on odr hands in no time.

“I hope you will use your influence to bring about a bettor feeling, and help our Ontario brothers to learn that the Catboiics of this Pi'ovincc are not ovcrlicaring or aggressive against Protestants in the way of. curtailing any of our riylhts. IE this can be said of them in a Province «'here they arc so overwhelmingly in the majol'tty, w’hat have ivo to- fear in any Pr-ovince where tliey must al- ways be i.n'' the minority, through the natural course of events.

“AVhile this letter i.? ivrittcn to you person.ally, you are at liberty to use it in any way you may think best. AVith kindest regards and best wishes for yoiu- future.”

“Jack, dear, wajsn’t it Siwful ? ’ she (isduis^Kcrcd,.

there’3 ino one to tike my place in tlue field.’

iBeth -wailed until his tired çyes closed «t?ain, and then stole from the room. An hour ,'atcr Mrs. Len- nox welcomed her in astonishment.

“,What brought you nut in‘ this fearful heat ?’ she asked.

IBeth told of Jack’s sudden iliDes.s and the great need of holu.

“Why, no, Beth. I rather like it.’-*

“Ijike it! My h.at is full of rice and your shoulders arc simply cov-

ered iwilt'h it. If they’d only let uS slip off quietly! Now, everyone will know, that we’re just married. You muistn’t pay any attention to me ! You muist repid your paper and the’ —

, “And then?’ smiling whimsically. “Why then you must go into the

itmoki.ng car, dear.’ .When Jack abandoned his paper

for a cigar, the old .lady behind Beth Ica-ned for,w,ard, “Excuse me,’ she said, “but arc you going far?’

“Yes, a long distance.’ Then the,

kmd old ' face W|On her confidence and she added volubly, “My husband has a 'farm out w,est ; we are going

there and we intend to. stop at sev cral places 'On the way.’

“I was thinking,’ the cjd lady

said, “of the many bridal couples that ha.ve passed over, the road. How many of them, I wonder, axe as happy now • as they dreamed they’d -be?’ ,

“O, many, I hope,’ said the little bride, wistfully. “Don’t you think

so V . , ; I.: “It all dciwnds. Of course, chc

honeymoon can’t last forever. A man may Jove his wife better every d'ay-^he probably does—but he for- gets to toll her so, a,nd a woman’s hea'r.t is a, curious thing ; .“ho can’t Jive on faith and apple dumi)lings.’

Then slie added, -'‘My dear, if your .husband ever forgets to show you any of the litt,lc signs of af- fection I iWiant yo'U to remember that be loves you just the same

.and helievcis in your love for him ; but, being a man, he rsn t con-

tinually looking for a sign.-

“Tha,nk you,- B.eth whispered gratefully, “and 1II remember. ’

In less Ibai^ tw,o months Both was the cstabLislicd mistress of the

farm-houie, though Jack’s Aunt Miehitabel, who had ruled there so long, was loth to relinquish her

sceptre.

The .weeks went by and the little,

.wife’s happiness was seriously in dan ger. Her nature wap an active one,

but Jack’s aunt opposed her every

“And now,’ she said, “I want to hire out to Jack and I want you to help me. I know, there’s not much

I can do,’ she said humbly, “but I found some boy’s clothes hanging in the .-waisb house, 3nd if you will lielp me to take them up a little- Im sure we cun make them fit! Don't say you won t help me, for there’s nothing I c.an do for Jack if I stay at home.’

After dinner, while Aunt Hitty

rested, .ai messenger came with a note for Beth, urging'her Immediate presence at the Lennox farm.

“Oorae prepared to stay t-n-;o days,’- Mrs. Ijennox had written.

I suppose, you want to go?’ J.ack

asked.

“Oh, so much, dear 1’

“Very well; but if I were, in your place, [Beth,’ he said dryly, “I’d drop the ‘dear.’ It doesn t sound w-oll under the circumstances.’

(Beth’s lip quivered, but she fried to smile.

“Perhaps it docs sound, silly, no,w

that our honeymoon's over,’she said bravely, and then hurried from the

room. In the middle of the afternoon

one of the hired men came to the house and asked to see Mr. Brad- ley. :

“There's a kid here, ’ he said, “that .wants to hire out. ’

“.Where docs he come from ? ’ ask- ed Jack in surprise. -

“From some place beyond Len- nox s, I guess; he says he wants to sleep and eat at home, so it can’t be far olf. Shall I tell him he can stay, sir ? ’

“1 am only too glad to get him, ’ Jack replied.

Thd rain did hold off until the evcnin,g of the next day, and the

wlieat wa's cut and shocked, when one of the hired men came running

to the house for help. “.The little chap is down Iherc in

the field with Jino—sick,’ he said. “Shall I hitch up aiid take 'him

home ? ’

“No,’ Jack said; “bring him up hero. It will rain bclor<! you could .get’ started. ’

effort ito be useful. Once, when she opposed Aunt

^iliitty was taking her afternoon nap, Beth .gave way to her feelings, and

burying her fapo in Jack’s old coat,

she cried , a,s if her heart would

break. , ,

That evening, a;s she sat on the wide perch, waiting for Jack to join

her, she overheard Aunt Hitty talk

ing to him. , “She is BO utterly Incompetent,’

Aunt iHitty was saying, “and so childish! This afternoon I Sea.rd her

“BecauBo I lovc.d hep — that is

sufficient', I think,’ Jack answered. “Poicr little girl—crying, -was she ?’

“This is a loamsocse place, isn’t it, dear?’- ho Said very gently. I thinfc it would do you good to return Mrs. Lennox’s call to-morrow. It

will cheer 'Pom up, too.’ Mrs. Lennon and sen seemed glad

to sec thclm, a.nd insisted on keep- ing Bejth until after tea. “You needn’t come for her, Mr. Bradley, ’

Tom’s fmdt'her said. “My son- -w-ill take her home.’

This was ;the beginning Of the -great- intim-acy between the two famUics. , i

-There was something st.rangely faniiliar in the -patlietio little figure they laid soi carefully on, the lx;d, Jack titooipod a-nd untied the big straw. ha|t from the boyish head ;. tlien his face gro-w white, for Bieths soft browh hair streapicd over the

P'illolW; and Biaths blue eyes gazed into his without the faintc-.st .sign of recognition.

The restless he,a,d turned on the pUlo.w, -and the iialc lips murmured, “Say you 11 help me, Miss Lennox..

1 want to- help Japk I’’

Kneeling beside her. Jack kis.sed the little ha.iidis and sobbed aloud.

Then the voice -went on, with many

imuscs, “Yes, the honeymoon is over, but Jack loycp me just the same. Semetimfe-s-1 wish—he’d tell me so

—just once more.”

Aunt iHitty had entered the room

h-nnoticed ; she started now at the stm-nd of her own name. “Aunt -Hitty,” she wa.itcd, “I’ve tried so

hard t'o please her—so hard she

doesn’t' -lo.ve mo—she never will !”

The tbiars rained down Aunt Hit- ty’s face. “I don’t know,” she .said. “I never realized I”

All that night she watched with Jack -beside Beth’s bed. But when day dawned all was still ; the .sun- light touched Beth’s face and. waken ed ,hcr. Her eyes sought Jack’s in- quiringly, then rcsiod there in sweet content.

Jack ;was very busy on the farm, but young Icnnox had more . time al^ -hils disposal. Ho frequently dro ve

over for Beth, and brought her home in the moonlight. Jack rejoiced in

“-Beth is never happy unless she’s ■with Mr. Lennox ; 'I’m sui’e it dccisn’t look iwell' for her to ride with him as often as slie does.’

Jack laughed at the idea, but it came again and again, until he injagincid that Beth shrank from' his ouresses, and he resolved not to an- noy her in the future. His wife felt that the honeymoon ‘iyas waning at last, anidi bravely tried to follow the old lOidy’s advice and believe that

Jack still loved her. By and by the grain rose and fell

in golden waves, and the sun bejat pitilessly down on the tired men toil in,g in the h.irvest fiel<te. In the

mi-dst of it «ii Jack succumhed to the lieat, and hud to be helped to house. Slie slept bravely for .some time, and when he opened his eyes Beth was standing over him.

’S cha b’ ann gu m’-ratb.

’N uair arainig sinn Glaschu— B’ e sin baile na h nprait, Tha de dhaoine’s de dh’ eich ann, Tha de bhreialicb ’a de smuid ann— Thug mi snil air mo tharsuinn, ’S fhuair mi pgailc anna an tionndadh, A choir teas na mo phoraibh, ’S barr mo shroin’ air a lubadh

Congre.ssm-iin Cochran of Missouri told a story recently, accordLlnjg to The Buffalo Commercial, of a .w-cll

drosBcd man who regLstcred at a hotel in St. Jo.scph, Mo. 'He casu- ally remarked that ho never travel- led without Ills own fire eseape, at the Bamc time exhibiting the con-

trivance which he carried. “In ca|9c of fire,” he said, “I can

lot myself dio-a.n from' any Hotel ,wi.n- dOW,” ;

The landlord said gravely, "Our

Jack London' on hia last' visit .to Now York was introduced, in a cafe to a muisieian.

“I, too, am a musician iq. a small way,” liondon said. “My muisical talent was once the means of saving

my life.” “Hciw, .was that '?” the musician ask

“There was a great flood in our tc;wn in my froj'hood,” replied Lon-

don. “When the water struck our

house my father got up on a bed and floated .witli the stream until he was

atoscued,.” “And you ?” said the musician. “Well,” said London, “I accompan-

ied him on the piano.”—Boston Her- ald. ,

The attorney for the defence shook hiis finger at the complaining wit- ness and raised his voice a little higher.

“Let us get the right,” , he said. “Yo-u state on oath that .you had the defendant ■ arrested because he was hounding you with threats to do you up. Is that right ?”

“Yes, sir.”

“You repeat the a;ssertiion iliat ho

.was hoiunding you ?”

' “Yes, sir.”

“You saw tlie weapon that wa.s

found on him when he was arrested, didn’t you ?”

, “I did.” The attorney rose to his feci,

leaned forward, and glared at him with 'an expression terrible to be- hold.

“Now, sir,” he thundered, “will you

please tell this jury how, the defen- dant could po.ssibly have hounded you with a bulldog a'.evolver!”— Chicago iTr'ibunc.

■With women, ill-hdalth is usually traceable to nerve .exhaustion. Feel- ing run doiwn and tired most of iba time is nature’s W:arning that more nerve-force is required.

You must build up, nourish the body, vitalize the nerves, get more flesh cand blood.

It’s the abundant nutriment and. buUding material in Eerrozone that enables it to cure so many sick wo- men. It increases the appetite, adds .weight and strength, restores lost color aird d.evelop3 a surplus of energy and nerve force that defies sickness of any kind. There is liv- i.ng proof in Mrs. Daniel Ferguson, Jr., -of Rre.'cott, Ont. Read her state ment. *

“A year a,go my' health failed. I grew, thin and exceedingly pa'le. At times I-was prostrated ■xvith norvoius -and sick headache. AH day I was tired. At night it was difficult to obtain restful- sleep. My appetite was variable and indigestion bothci' cd me considerably. I became motre- so and suffered from heart palpita- tion. You could scarcely believe the benefit I derived in one week from Fcrrozonc. Color came back to my cheeks. Miy vitality ail'd appetite in- creaised, renewed nerve force and better spirits came also.

AKbougli we have been favored

with an abundance of rain this sea- son, and there is on every band plciuty of .good pa.sturc, with every prospect of a. good liay crop, yet on) many stock farms rape might be pro' fi.tably sown. The'comparative cheap ness of the seed, the excellent re- turns tier acre, and the I'clish with which it is eaten by all kinds of farm stock, Ithesc qualities combine to make the plant one of the most im portant of cur forage idants.

There arc several varieties of rape but only one has iriveu sati.sfaction in Ontario, and that variety is the Dwarf Essex. For this reason, Uie seedsma.n, from whom the seed i.s to be bought, should be made to guar- antee it to be true to name. 'Wie seed of a dark purple or black color a.nd can scarcely be liistinguislii ed freon the seed ot the ordinary Swede turnip In many cases this seed has been sown in mistake for turnip, and the young plants, which

repemble ycuuig turnips, treated as a ■j'oot crop until the great development

of the leaf as compared with the small spindlcy root, revealed the true

nature of the iilant. The seed is very

oily, and man,y v rietics of thi.s plant

have Iboen grown as a source for oil. The seed usually germinv.''!' s in about

ten days after sowing. Fresh seed should always be .sown. It is seldom advisable to use seed that is more than three ox four years old as the vitality decreases very materially

after that age is reached.

BcBt Soils i’or Rajic.

While the plant gives good returns

on almost any soil, the best results are uisually obtained from dark rich loams. Such soils are generally rich i:n nitrogen, wliich stimulates leaf igro'Wth, and as this is the desired end ui ra.;xi culture such soils are very

satisfactory. One may take it, as a igencral rule, in the preparing of ihe land for'this crop; that it should be regarded ns a rooc or hoed crop.

Following this rule, sod should be plowed so’ma time previous to tho sowing of the raiic in order that tho gra,B;cs and roots may become rotted and ith;rougbly incorporated with the soil S3 that ibe cultivation fol-

lowing will produce a fine triable

seedbed. Land w,hicli has been new- ly cleiared, stumiiy lanid, or in dry

eeaisoims, low. flats give good pastur- age iw^hiqn sawn to this crop. Farm-

ers in this locality who, instead of

summer following, sow ra.ps as a pre paratory crop for wheat, claim Uiat it does ibest on land which has never

before grow.n It, and some even go so far as to maintain that the longer it is grown, on the same s&Ü tho

smaller .will be the returns. In order to supply wa.ter for the great c'va- poratlng surface of the leaves, flic rc.ets arc very numerous and pene- trate deeply into the soil. They are more numerous in fact, than those of any other of our common farm

croiis. The effect of these roots Is of obvious importance in the use of this crop in preparing land for

winter wheat or in fact for any of the shallow rooted crops.

.Wheri a,p.d How. t.o> Soiv.

In certain rare favored parts of

Ontario, rape, it is elai.TQcd, may be sOiW.n with good results as early as the laist few days in April, itow-

ever for the greater part of the pro- vince the first warm days in will generally be plenty early cnoiugh..

it is seldom ad'/isabie .to sow later

than the middle part cf August. Good p.iisturage may be counted on eight weeks after sowing. Stock should Ixi

turned out with full stomachs and

left dn when the rapo is a good heiigbt and the leaves .have a bluish caiat. Stock may Le allowed to feed on it until quite late in the season, i.s this iilrant, like its near relative, the turnip, will stand quite a heavy

froist,.

It is most commonly sown broad-

cast at the rate cf 4 lbs. to the acre. Most of cur experiment stations,

however, recommend its being sown

in drills ami its being treated as a hoed crop. AVhcii sown in this man- ner the drills should be twcnly-six uichies Bipart and one imund of seed

should he used. The drills may be placed lwpde.r apart Lo facilitae cul- tivation, but the gi-e<iter the distance

apart the less the yield. On most farms implements narrow enough can be sociu’cd to do tho cultivating wlien the drills are placed twenty- six inches apart. tVhen sewing on lO'W or wet ground it is advisable to so;win ridges wjiile the flat method usually gives tho bcisit results ?n tlie drier Bails. By the drill method of sowing a (greater yield can lie secur ed. It hais also the advantages crf a

hard crcip in that by tlic cultivation it receives, moisture is con.scrved and ^ weed's and bisects are destroyed. The i

stock where pasturing cn it (esiK- j dally sheep), will follow the rows 1

and ’.us a result tlvcre is le.ss cf ibc crop lost by trampLng.

tv hen sown wltli g^raiii U is .'icl-

dom u success. If the catch cf raix'

ii5 good, the leaves of U which liBve been cut with the grain, on account of their juicy nature prevent the ra- pid drying of the slicavcs. High cut- ting of the grain, in seasons when

■etraiw is plentiful, is more satisfac

tory. R;u» iis sometimes sown along with the corn at the last cultivation but as t.bc corn field is usually ex- ccediingly dry a't this time, and the corn itself so high and "leafy as to exclude .all sur light, the rape is sel dem a succes.s. Even if it can .sur- vive these adverse condition.s, it i.s severely treated in the harvesting of the corn.

As a Fodder Crop.

The U'ïes of rape as a fodder crop are many and varied. It is pre-emi nently a sheep paat.ure. A good acre of rape will support from fittccni to eighteen lambs for two month's and give good grains. 'Howievo.r, on ac- count of the omnlvcTous nature of the sheep’s appetite, which .should be

catercid to at alt tlmeis in order to secure the Ixist resuHs, it is good practice to allow, tho lambs to run cn some good mixed pasture as well as tho rape. The ewes will also d'à well on this feed during the sum men and in- tlic fall may be got in

good shape for breeding by tho same

feed,-

Nor arc sheep the only class of farm stock that do well cn this pas- ture ; all kinds of young stock, as well ,rs the more mature,, make rapid gains on it, but should have other pasture as well. Nearly all steer-

fccder.3 regard rape as the be.st po.s sible feed prepia.ratory to winter feed ing or fattening. 'Stock should be turned on with a full Btomach, in the middle c.f the day, and left on. A small amount of clean oat straw'or nay is often relished by the stock

when cn the papturc-

When one considers ihe great amouji't of pasture yielded by one acre of this crop (an acre of it in a good year .will grow about 10-12

tons of forage), its great palatabil- ity 'to all kinds of farm stock, the largo and rapid gains secured from

It'S use, o.nc wonders, to .say the toast, wily it is net more extensive ly grew'n. With the iseed of the crox> within ea.sy reach of ail there is no excuse for the farmer with small

or unth.rifty stock.

Well Balanced” Flour. A perfedly "balanced" flour is one which contains the

greatest amount of nutriment in its most easily digestible form.

No single variety of wheat will produce "well balanced"

flour. It requires the careful seledion of different kinds.

The makers of ROYAL HOUSEHOLD FLOUR

have more than a hundred elevators, scattered throughout the

greatest wheat growing country in the world, which enables them

to secure the very pick of the wheat that will yield perfedly

balanced flour—

—The kind of flour that produces the be^l, the largest

and the élrongeél loaf—

—The loaf which çqntains the greatest amount of bone,

muscle and brain-making çïÇtein and the lowest percentage

of waste.

ROYAL HOUSEHOLD rnakes bread which reduces the labor of digestion—and gives greatest nutrition for least

stomach effort.

It’s the "balance" in flour that makes bread easier to digest

and gives it many other qualities which are usually attributed

to other causes.
