The owner of a large office building, who had a room for his own use in one of the upper storeys, was visited cne morning by a man with a bag. "Don't you' want something sir," be- gan the caller, 9n the way of a new and improved outfit for marking hand- kerchiefs, collars, cuffs, and—" "No, I don't," interrupted the owner.. "How did you get up here? We don't allow pedlars or canvassers in this building." "Yoe don't?" "That's what I said." "I saw no notice to that effect." "Weil, you'll see one the next time. you coma I shall have one put 'up.". "In that case," rejoined the man, op- ening his valise with. alacrity, "I have just the thing for you." Hero he displayed a neatly -painted card, over a foot long and nearly as wide, with this inscription in large let- ters: "No pedlars or canvassers al- lowed in this building on, any pretext whatever," In recognition of his caller's clever- ness, genial humor, and businesslike forethought, the owner not only bought the notice but invested in one of the marking outfits. WILL IIAUL GRAIN NEXT SEASON. Rapid Progress Being Made in the Con- struction of G. T. P. "Canadawill have a remarkable rail- way when the Grand Trunk Pacific is built," ie the statement which was made recently by Mr. Collingwood Schreiber, chief consulting engineer to the Can- adian .Government. "1 have just come from the West, where I have been inspecting the por- tion of the line from Winnipeg to Ed- monton. I drove the entire distance of the route from Portage la Prairie to Edmonton. "The surveyors have found a splen- did line. It is practically straight, and the maximum grade to the eastwaY'd is four -tenths of one. per cent„ and west- ward five -tenths. "As the Grand Trunk Pacific people expect to do about as well through the mountains from Edmonton to the :Paci- fic, and as the national transcontinent- al ranscontinental surveyors have practically •secured these grades all the way from Winni- peg to the Atlantic, there is no doubt the line will be the best of all the trans -1 continental lines, and cabable of the most economic administration and hand - ting the greatest amount • of traffic at a minimum cost. "By autumn there will be over ahun- dred miles of the line west of Winni- peg railed, and there is little doubt the road will participate in the hauling of the crop next year. The settlers are going in with the road, Their shacks were seen dotting the prairie for the whole distance from Portage la Prairie to Edmonton. "The company hes sixteen surveying parties working to the west of Edmon- ton through the mountains. The con- tractors ontractors are encountering some difficul- ty in getting labor. However, there is no doubt the road will be built in a very short time." It is a peculiar fact that Africans never sneeze, neither do their descend- ants, if they be pure blooded, although domiciled in other parts of the world. A NEW AMERICAN" NOVEL. A novel by Arthur Goodrich, entitled "The Balance of Power," is announced for early publication, It is the story of the loves of two friends for the same girl, with a gripping, vital struggle of every -day American life as a back- ground, a story of high ideals and cour- ageous optimism. The publishers of this boob, The Outing Publishing Company, say that it "grips you in the, beginning and sweeps you off your feet in the end," and they boldly prophesy that it will be one of the best selling books of the year. Many a man goes to the bad because of his efforts to pose as a good fellow. Nearly all infants are more or less subject` to diarrhoea and such com plaints while teething and as this period of their lives is the most critical, Mo- thers should not be without a bottle of Dr, J. D. Kellogg's Dysentery Cordial. This medicine is a specific for such complaints and is highly spoken of by those who have used it. The proprie- tors claim it will cure any case of chol- era or summer complaint. MEASURING PAIN. A new branch of science heralds its appearance in Paris, It is named Dolorfrnetry. and its function is the "measurement" of The dynamics of pain by material means, The dolometer stows• that the dynamic force of a Sharp out with an ordinary carter's whip is equal to about 2851b., but that a vigorous jerk at the reins puts a pressure of about 3051b. onthe horse's head. During 1005 there were wrecked, burned, and foundered at sea. 207 steam vesaels of a net aggregate tonnage of 253,611, and 206 sailing vessels of 214,- 600 toms, says Lloyd's. "have you heard my daughter sing, Mr, Potts?" "Oh. yes, machine -4 live only five doors distant'" • • ALCOHOL FROM CORN cos. Mann Gallons Were Distilled From/ One Ton, In the inanulectua'e of alcohol from porn cobs and corn stalks, at small cost the United States Department of Agriculture is developing a new indus- try that is likely to be of large corn- menial .value. Investigations which the department is lnalcing at Hoopes- ton, Ills., have proved that the large quantities of corn cobs which every heretofore year y e ha ve gone to waste can be converted into alcoholin suffice ent quantities so as to justify the erec- tion of a distilling plant in connection with a corn eennery. The Department of Agriculture sent two chemists to Hoopeston to make experiments at a large cannery there. They have succeeded by simple methods of fermentation in getting a yield of eleven gallons of alcohol from a ton of green cobs, and six gallons of alcohol from a ton of green cern stalks.

This inscription appeared as long ago as 1750 on a map of South Africa. It was not until 1867, howeverthat they were actually discovered. in 1880' the famous De. Beers Ci3nsolidated Mines Company possessed the richest diamond fields in the world. Diamonds are found in the largede- posits of lava or "blue ground" that has been forced up from the depths in past ages. Each mine consists of a large, basin -like crater gradually tapering to a great depth. Within a radius of three. and a halfmiles, five of the world's leading diamondmines are located. Here the Kaffir boys work in gangs of twenty-five to forty, drilling and blast- ing the hard blue rock. The walls are worked until they break through into another chamber. When it reaches the surface the pre- cious earth. is automatically -conveyed to the dumping grounds. Here it is spread to a depth not exceeding ten inches artd allowed to remain from three to six months, according to the rapidity with which it disintegrates. When finally sent to the washing machines it is mixed with water and passed through revolving screens filled with holes. This method of handling is being superseded by mechanical sorters which consist of several inclined perforated shelves, loaded with grease. The dia- monds stick to the grease, while all other material passes from one shelf to another. Great precautions are taken against theft. All employes are engaged for three months, during which time they are kept under close guard. While they are not at work they are confined in a large compound surrounded by high fences. A central store is located in this enclosure The men enter and de- part by long, subterranean passages which lead from the compound to the mines. Towers are located from which powerful searchlights are operated at night. The employes are also searched every evening. In Spite of all this care ten to fifteen per cent. of the diamonds mined are stolen. In order to discourage the buy- ing of stolen gems, a penalty of from five to fifteen years is enforced against the buyers. The. De Bens Company operates seven mines and employs fourteen hundred white workmen and seventy-two hun- dred blacks. The annual output is from six to eight million carats, or from one to one and a half tons a year. It is eight months from the time the reek is drilled until the extracted dia- mond is ready for the assayer's exami- nation. ami.nation. FOR A BAD MEMORY. Here is a good memory exercise. Glance into a shop window for one second only, and then try to name all the things displayed in it, At first you will recall only two or three, but this number will rise to thirty with prac- tice. Another good piaci is to sit down at the end of the day's work and think of all you have done since morning - where you have been, whom you have met, what you have spent, and so on. lit time you will be able to recall ex- aetly what ypu said and did at a cer- tain hour, and the advantage of posses- sing this faculty is obvious. Incident- ally, it will keep you from wasting your time, for it is not pleasant to remember that you did nothing at ail. If your weakness lies in forgetting faces, make a mental note of such details as the col- or of the hair, the straightness of the nose, and the curves of the mouth.

THE GREAT NORTH COUNTRY. Nimrod was a mighty hunter, .but. had he hunted in the "Highlands cf Ontario," he would have been a might- ier one. Nimrod hunted for glory, but those who go into the several districts of Northern Ontario hunt for game. Those Indians who made the first canoe of birch bark long ago, were our great- est benefactors. The children of those Indians know the canoe, and they know how to use it, and they know just where the moose and deer are to be found. They will be the best guides you ever had. The "The Muskoka Lakes," "Lake of Bays," "Afaganetawan River," "French River," "Temagami, "Georgian Bay" and several other dis- tricts in this Great • North Country abound with deer and moose. The best hunting on the American Contin- ent is offered here.

In Tunis, the traditional usage Is for the reigning Prince to sent 'the Court barber to the person on whom the eh:oi.co has fallen es a successor to notify hitn,lllat he may wear a beard. That intimation is equivalent to a formal announcement that he has been selected as heir -pre- sumptive. The reason is that in Tunis the wearing of hair on the face is the exclusive privilege of sovereignty. The new Bey the other day sent his hair- dresser with this intimation to Si telei- `noun el nab-, who is now, therefore, heir -presumptive. After the barber's mission there was a family gathering at the Bey's house, over which the Bey prattled, 'and the nqw heir received the general congratulations.
