Professor Stevens was .once work g, up a mining case for the govern- ent in a western state where Mr. ncoln was practicing ,law. Mr. Lin- niat the time was comparatively un - own In law and politics. 'Vhen the ofessor engaged his room in the' cr.( country hotel, he found that �Ir.; Lincoln was to occupy one bed the room, as there was no other ace where he could be accommodlt- After arranging his books the pro- sorssettled down in an easy chair to epare his brief. r. Lincoln soon came in and made itself known. Ile said he also had spend the evening making up an are upon a mining case, and lie ew less about mines than about any - ng else. .In an hour the professor is'hed his ,work and retired, but be- e he did so he granted his room - 'e the privilege of using all his oks, maps and papers upon mines d mining. Then he went to sleep, d when he awoke at 7 the next ming he touud Air. Lincoln just ere he. had left him poring over books and papers. The lamp was 1 burning, although it was day - ht. As Professor Stevens' case did riot come 'up the next day he attended the court to bear Mr. Lincoln present his arguments. He reached the scene in time for the opening speech by his roommate, and he staid all through the Session. Although Air. Lincoln spoke for over ffn hour on the technicalities of mines and mining, he did not make a single mistake. He cross examined some half dozen surveyors and engineers and lu every vcase puzzled and embarrassed them, with his kncrwledge of .the sub. ject. Of course be won the case. But Professor Stevens said that everybody in the court believed he hacl been grad- uated in mining engineering and had devoted years to the sfudv of rile sci- ence.- Hie Choice of a Word, " " "You look rotanst relnai•Ied ilia, ladyof the house.

G., the Lord High Confrnissioner of the Dominion of Canada, arrived on the.Cunarder SS: Etruria yesterday. Lord; Strathcona- furnished and equipped a regiment of 650 horses and sent 'them from Canada to fight the Boers. at his own expense. The regiment consisted chiefly of - scouts and cowboys, and was commanded by Col. Steele. "Much against my will," said Lord Strathcona, "the regiment has been named `Strathcona's Horse,' and be- ing composed of the cowboys' and scouts,it did duty as scouts in Gen- eral- Bu11er's forward march, a fact, I regret to say, which accounts for the regiment's depletion. Many have been killed, and to vary` large number wounded: They left in March., and I do not -know when they will be back:" The Lord High C'oinmissioaer left for Montreal last night, and when asked what he thought of theresult of, the British elections, said with a stile: "It virbuld not be ,proper in th Pord High Commissioner of Canada to permit' himself to discuss English politics, but I may say that there is a wave of Imperia]isur sweeping irre- sistibly over Europe. As ` for Mr. Joseph Chamberlain, I have known him for: 40 years back, have known him, outside ,of =politics and very in- timatel;y indeed, and a lnore upright man 1 never met in my life.

Platt's old salt block on the river flats was dis- covered to be on fire.

The fire started at the north- east end and in spite of at contrary breeze quickly worked •its' way -along to the other end, making a tremedous blaze. The firemen worked away for about three hours and extinguished the flames before the -building was en- tirely consumed. There was no in- surance. Mr. Platt places his loss at $5,000.

IT BUILDS UP AND KEEPS IN PERFECT COt`TDITI+DN THR GREAT NERVOUS OUS SYSTEM. 1VI When the• mtarvellon's complexity. delicacy and power of the mysterious nerve system is fully realized, ; we are not surprised at the sweeping assertion of Dr. Laming, Professor of Clinical Medicine in Hahnemann Medical Col- lege, Chicago, that "all diseases are due to lesion of the nervous system," or in other words, disease results from a weakeied,or disturbed -nervous sys- tem. It was the life work of -that great physician, Mr: Phelps, to give suffer- ing men and women a medicine that would act directly on the nervous sys- tem. Dr. Phelps succeeded nobly and well. He placed Paine's Celery Com- pound before some of the ablest phy- sicians that ever assembled in Dart - mend) Medical College. It met with their full apsroval, and they at once prescribed it in .their practice, and found it lifesaver when other means failed. t To -day, tens of thousands sound the praises of Paine's Celery Compound. In every city, town of this continent, people are found who owe their life and good health to Paine's Celery Com- pound, nature nerve medicine and nerve food.
