THE ISLAND, lir 011,ii IT OFF ASO PUSHED

Scomalt, who was great and strong and
ruled the island where the first men lived.
This was long, long ago, when the sun
was so young that it was only as huge as
a star and there was eery little earth to
live on.
This island was far hs the cant and was
settled by white giants War arose among
them, and the noise and slaughter so ex-
asperated Scomalt, their queen, that she
drove the rebels to the end of tho island,
broke it off and pushed it out to sea. This
fragment with its inhabitants, now too
busy worrying to fight, drifted for many
days and was so swept by storrn and so
halting in food that one by one the people
died, all but a man and bis wife, who de-
serted the derelict, for it was waterlogged
and striking, and paddled day and night
in their canoe until they ozone to Anterioa,
then an island fringed with rooks, and
landed en what is now the territory of the
Okanagans.
From themcame all the people of the
western world. But, alas, they were no
longer white .After their days of exposure
to the sun they had been burned red from

This is a story of Alaska. it tells of the
baffled ices god:
Thirty or forty miles up the Stiokeen
river, in Alaska, is a glaoler 35 miles long
and 50 miles wide, a stupendous ice mass
that is a part of the bridge once flung
across the river A god of this region
who had most power in winter. closing
the smaller streams, covering the moun-
tains with white, stripping the foliage
from the trees and covering the inlets with
floes, was angry at the spirit of the Stick -
sen for its refusal to submit to the power
of the frost. As the long winter Came on,
brooding and threatening, the god shook
bis spear of icicle in triumph and began
bawling his orders in a north wind voice
that roared and echoed with tho cliffs and
shook all the loose snow out of the passing
clouds.
The Stickeen went dancing and frolick-
ing to the ocean, withoutany notice of the
god, until, filled with wrath that one child
of nature should disobey him, he gathered
from the mountain side great masses of
ice and snow and flung them across the
stream. He could not close It. but be
bridged it and shut it from the air and
sunlight, and the people who had gone to
it daily for fish were frightened and asked
its spirit what could be done to make it
free again. Crushed and shamed, the spirit
made no answer, but the god Dried in bis
stormiest voice that he must have two lives
to pay for this disobedience, and must
have them soon, or he would visit his
wrath upon all the men who lived along
the river.
An old chief asked who among tbe com-
pany would make the sacrifice—make it
by that most dreaded death of drowning

TROUT COOKED ON THE HOOK.
Conclusion of One Story Told About
the Yellowstone Park,
"You needn't think thatjust because.I
have been out there 1 am guing to give.
you all the details of a surprise which 1
dict not feel at the stook tales of the Yel-
lowstone park," said the critical tourist.
"Anybody knows that boiling water will
cook fish, and so long as you know that
the Yellowstone is full of geysers and
boiling springy. I. don't see what there is
wonderful about eatching a trout and
then turning around and dangling it in a
boiling spring until it is cooked. It would
begin to be woudertnl if boiling water
didn't cook fish everywhere.
"But I wish when they are toiling this
old story they'd finish it up—mal.'e it
complete. The next time you hear any-
body tell that story just you watch out for
the way it ends. It Bever ends. The Ivan
tells how be caught the trout. Well and.
good; anybody conn catch hundreds of
trout in those overstocked waters. Then
ho tells bow he swung around ou his heel
and, without taking the fish from the
hook, lowered it into a pool of boiling
water and cooked it. Well, what's the end
of the story? There isn't any end, Be
just chortles about how he was everoozne
by the marvels of nature and that sort of
thing, Ile doesn't sayauotber word about
the Ash. Now, if you will only let the.
marvels of nature alone and keep your eye
fixed on the fish with whieb the story be-
gan, it will look mighty different.
"There Is the peel of boiling water
pretty bandy. but not by any means to be
l'eaehed by pivoting on the fisherman's
heel, Then just son to have something
talk about when be gets lime the fish-
erman souses his live trout into the boil-
ing water. If it's cruelty to broil a live
lobster, there ought to be something done
to a man wbo will boil a trout alive, Aud
it spoils the flab. The znan bas to throw
it away after be has shoved it through
nature's marvels, for the sake of his miser-
able llttlo seely. Nobody can eat a trout
that has been boiled with all its scales on
and all the maolunery in place. It's got
to bethrown away. There's another
thing, too, about this story. The next
time you hear it ask the man if be took
the trout opt of the pool of boiling water.
If he says be did, then thelish didn't begin
to be molted, for anybody wbo has ever
Seen a boiled fish of any sort knows that

SPRUNG TWO PUZZLES.
The First Was Barred, but the See -
and Won the Prize.
.At a suburban oburch function not
long ago each eeriest) was required to
wear conspicuously upon iris or her cloth-
ing some pictorial or other device that
should represent in rebus form tho title
of any well known book, and all the others
were to guess at the book intended. A
prize was to be given for most Ingenious
of these devices,
"Paradise Lost," represented by a card
upon which five dice had been pasted and
from which two lied evidently dropped or
been removed, was easily guessetl. "Hurd
Times" was no puzzle. Neither was it
hard to recognize "A Pair of Blue .Eyes„"
"Innocents Abroad," "Vanity Fair" or
"Uncle Tom's Cabin" in spite of their
pictorial disguises.
One of the guests, however, had a poser.
Attached to one of the buttons of his coat
was a card bearing siluply the inscrip-
tion "Ter."
Every ono at last gave it up and asked
for tho solution.
"Why, that's easy," he said. "It means
'A Tale of Two Cities,' "
"Explain."
"Manchester and Leicester—last sylla-
bles of both. Seo?"
"That's not fair," said the other. "It's
the last syllable of Chaster, Lancaster,
Gloucester, Chichester and Exeter. We
protest!"
"Well," be said, "I won't insist, Try
this ono."
He turned the card over. It was in-
scribed on the other side with these throe
letters: "Ans."
After a severe mental struggle every-
body gave this up also.
"That ought not to puzzle ynu," he
said. "It's the `Last of the elallicens.'
He got the prize.—London Tit -nits.
Troublesome Jerusalem.
People often ask how it is that the fu-
ture of Palestine presents such difficulties.
The reason is simply that Jerusalem)—you
cannot separate Jerusalem from Palestine
—is the sacred city of so many creeds and
warring faiths. Not only is it the holy
place of all the Christian churches, and
two of them quarrel bitterly over it—the
Greeks and the Latins—but it is also one
of the most sacred places in the Moham-
medan world. ]lfocca and Medina are bard-
ly more sacred than the Mosque of Omar.
That is a fact which is often ignored by
Europeans, who forget that to turn the
Mohammedans out of the temple inclosure
would disturb the whole Moslem world
from the Straits' Settlements to Albania.
We must.noverforget that Mohammedan
pilgrims from India visit ,lerusaletn, just
as Christian pilgrims visit it'from Europe.
Lastly, .Jerusalem is profoundly sacred to
the Jews, and the Jews are beginning to
be locally numerous and important.—
Spectator.

AN INGERSOLL CASE.
How Mr. Francis Stewart Baffled
a Relentless Enemy.
Stricken b7 Kidney Disease -He Had
Treatment From tits Most Skilful
Doctors - All Failed to Help
jlf Im-1)odd'i Kidney fills
Cured Him..
INGEesoer., Jan. 16. -Some time ago Mr.
Francis Stewart, one of the well-to-do
tailors of this town, had the misfortune to
fall and injure his kidneys severely.
Soon after the accident symptoms of
Kidney Diseasemade their appeaeance,
and Mr. Stewart at once placed' himself
under the care of a competent physician.
Time passed; the xuedical men were con
etant in their attendance and unremitting
in their care. But no benefit requited..
On the contrary, Mr. Stewart's condition
grew steadily worse. The symptoms be-
came more and more pronounced, and the
patient's suuerings were at last almost
unbearable.
About this time he bought a box of
Dodd's Kidney Pills, and began using
them, taking no more of the doctor's medi-
cines, which had prove.[ so useless.
Mr. Stewart tells the result of his acleun
in the following words: "1 had laken only
a few doses of Dodd's. Kidney Pills when I
began to feel better. My urine grew more
natural in color, and became: normal in
quantity.
"I persevered in the use of Dodd's Kid-
ney Pills, and to -day I am sound and well
—have not an ache or a pain, though the
doctors had utterly failed to relieve nze."
This is a fair example of the wonerful
cures tha, Dodd's Kidney Pills have been;
making in this district during the; past
few years.
It is an absolute fact that Kidney Dis-
ease of ,every type, from Bright s Disease
Diabetes , and Rheumatism to Female
Complaints, ,have been almost entirely
banished from this section by Dodd's Kid-
ney Pills:

Do not feed sulphur to fowls in damp
weather.
Do not paok dressed poultry until all
animal beat is cooled out.
Clean earth is a first class disinfectant
and purifier. As long as it is dry it can
hardly be used to excess.
Give a variety of both dry and cooked
food --a mixture of meat and vegetables.
In this way better health and thrift can be
maintained.
If the fowls have the run of the farm
they find the kind and variety of food best
suited to them, and the exercise helps to
keep thein healthy.
Plenty of clover will serve to keep the
bons in good laying condition, as it does
not fatten so readily as grain. Chop it fine
and scald it in winter.
Dpad leaves make a good material to
scatter over the floor of the poultry house
for the fowls to scratch over. Scatter a
little grain among them.

aro benefited by a liberal allowance.
A good tree well taken up and wen
planted will do egrtally well whether
transplanted in the spring or in the fall.
One decided advantage In fall planting
rs that the tree is in place ready to grow
as soon as the season opens in the spring.
Nearly or quite all kinds of fruits and
vegetables keep much bet ter if the temperas
