It is a well known fact that at all the Weddle Faire and International Witte alone, held in the last decade, the Grand Trunk bas been most prominently rep,. resented with attractive dtsploys, and in each Daae gold medals and diplomas have been their awar•i. At the Franco. British Exhibibitiou which is to be held at Shepherd's Bash, London, May to October, this year, the Grand Trunk are not behind in their progressiveness and have ereetei a bewailed pavilion cover ing about 2,000 square feet of epaoe in a piotureeque spot known as the Frepch Court. This structure follows in deeign the Renaissanoe style of architecture with an artistiq pillared entrance. Ove: the entrance rises a group of statuary rep resenting the Grand Trunk Railway System. as "alma" with an eleotrio star surmounting the head of the central figure emblematic of the "Star of Em- pire," and on each side of this figure is represented in smaller figures the Atlan- tio and Paoifio Oceans, the central figure joining their hands, representing the spanning of the continent by the National Tranaoontinental Railway This aliegorioal group is a very impos- ing one and the idea is appropriate. The iuterior oe the building ie arrang- ed in a combination of color harmony of olive green and red. The scenic views of the Grand Trunk Railway, as well as the summer tourists districts and fibing and hunting resorts in Canada are beautifully portrayed by a series 01 bromide enlargements finished in a sepia tint and framed in a dull quarter- ed oak. The photographic work bas been executed ty Mr. J. W. Swan, the well known landscape photographer, who has excelled himself, if possible, it. this coileeticn. These pictures oover the walls to a distance of two feet Irom the ceiling, and the entire interior bat, b•en set off by a beautiful fri.ze made op of grains and graesea from Ontario, Manitoba, Alberta, Sae• katewan and the West. In this fiit,z are embedded specimens of Canadian flab and game mounted in an attractive way, the whole forming a unique and pleasing effect. I 1 the centre of the room a pyramid has been ereoted, on which is shown samples of the cereals of the Province o' Ontario, as well as natural samples of fruit trent the "Gat den of Canada." Animated moving picture machines, prejeeting fishing, hunting and railroad scenes, are other features on the floor space. Interesting and instructive Met - stare has been specially prepared foi distribution, and it is estimated that from fifteen to twenty million people wil visit this exhibition during its life- time. Oanada and the Grand Trunk Railway system will secure a tremen- d ns amount of publicity through this medium. Among the special features on dieplav In this building will be two exoepiio al ly fine moose heads. one the record head, taken from the Provinoe of On tario, and the other a freak head teat will attrant a great deal of attention Mr. 5 W Cummings. who until re Gently was General Passenger Agent of the Central Vermont Railway, bas been appointed to the position of Dirt.otor of this exhibit.

Because it was too rxpenelve to catty the murderer several scores or nines to the nearest yitutrll of justice the local elders, 1neluding the father of the murderer, whose t•aain had beeu sold, sat in justice upon the culprit and condemned him to death.

A grave was dug, tend the victim. with his arms and feet securely bound. was trundled in a wheelbarrow to the edge of the pit by his wife. There, upon the murderer's own request, his bonds were loosed, and he walked to the grave, lowered himself into It and was ready. The victim's wife put a felt hat over bis mouth as his request, and then she helped the elders to fill in the grave with six feet of earth. Rheumatism I have found a tried and tested cure for Rheu. ntatism ! Not a remedy that will straighten the distorted limbs of chronic cripples. nor turn bony growths back to flesh again.

The lot of the regicide when caught •Is not usually a very enviable one. To be hanged is the least he Gila expect. Perpetual solitary imprisonment is a far more dreadful fate. It drove Bres- ei, the assassin of King Humbert of Italy, to suicide. and it. transformed Ltae:hint, who murdered the empress or Austria. into a hopt'iess Imbecile. Among the plotters implicated in the minder of the tate shah of Persia one was tortured to death in prison, while another was incased in wet plaster of paras, which on setting slowly crushed the lift' out of him. Three of the as- sassins of a previous shah were boiled alive in huge copper caldrons. So late as the year 1531 • the two Mavronticbaelis, who slew Count Capo d'Istra. the first president or clreece. were immured within close brick walls built around theta up to their chins and.supplied with salted food. but no drink, null they died. Damiens, who attempted the life of King Louis XV. of France, was first barbarously tor- tured and then torn to pieces by wild horses. This punishment was carried out in one of the principal squares of Paris March 28, 1137. Ravaillac, who assassinated IIenty IV. of France, suf- fered a similar fate. The murderer of Selim III. of Turkey was publicly impaled, lingering five and a half days in dreadful torment. Those who did to death his immediate successor, ltfustapha IV., were tortured and starved on alternate days and de- prived of sleep by night until death came to their relief. An Ancient Suez Canal.
