The meeting of the Prince regent, the emperor's father, who only yes- terday had been the real ruler of China; all-powerful, master of the pro- perty and the lives of his subjects, the successor to twenty-five dynasties of emperors, with • Dr.' Sun Yat-sen, the republican leader, the conspirator and rebel on whose head a price had so long been set, was a scene that the witnesses will always remember. Mr. Fernand Farjenel describes it in Through the Chinese Revolution ; While I was talking with Sun Yat- sen, says the author, a servant handed a paper to the Chinese statesman. "°-"I must leave you at once," he said. "Here is the prince regent !" He sliook hands and' hurried to `•a room on the upper floor, possibly with the idea, df typifying the new order of things by compelling the representa- tive to the imperial government to 'walk upstairs to interview a son of the people:'" As we went 'out into the hall to watch the approach of - the -former sovereign, a blast of trumpets herald- ed his coming, and the palace guards, in their khaki uniforms ancl'` fiat caps, presented arms at the door. Then we • saw, in the sunlight, at the top of .the steps, a,, young Chinese about thirty years of age, with a kindly 'face and a --.shaven head, and bearing a blue robe with a_ black sleeveless overcoat Ac- companying him were two or three - Chinese and a:black-coated European. An officer of the palace guard preced- ed the party. [. The little group advanced, but numerous clerks and soldiers crowded round, anxious to have a nearer view of the prince before whom, only a year ago, they would have prostrated themselves humbly. They stared at him now impudently, and their little, furtive black eyes seemed to say, "You are nobody to -day !" An official was obliged to clear the way for the regent„who hurried along -and' seemed anxious to avoid the stares of the crowd. Escorted .by an officer, he passed close to us and climbed the great staircase, walking with bent head, and stooping shoulders, as if he bore the weight of his past grandeur. Finally the little party disappeared on the floor above. On leaving. the palace we. encounter- ed three or four servants wearing, the royal livery'' -blue robes with white, conical'hats covered with red fringes. :Theyy were holding some little, i11- - groomed horses.

Loss of appetite during the su mer months is a common troub and indicates that the digestive sy tem is out of order. Lacking, healthy appetite many people—e pecially women—go too long wi out food, or eat sparingly becau food seems to distress them, and is no wonder that they complain th they are constantly tired and unab to stand the hot weather. This si ply means that the digestive syste" is not doing its proper work, and th the nutriment that should come fro the food is not being distributed to th 'various organs of the body. In oth words the blood is growing thin an watery. e You need' a summer tonic; and i all the realm of medicine there is n tonic can equal Dr.' Williams' Pin Pills, Take a short treatment wi these pills now and °notice ho promptly your appetite returns an your power to digest food improve Your food will then do you . goo your strength will return and-' yo will no longer complain that `the ho weather tires you out.

NATIONAL PARK ; IS LARGES Snow -Clad Peaks are Impressive Massive Ruggednesis Probably the most impressive thin about the. Canadian' Rockies' is the massive ruggedness. These mountain are tremendous uplifts of stratifi rock ,of the devoniani and earbonif ous ages which have broken out of th crust of the earth and slowly heave aloft. On the right and left the trave ler through this district will see snow laden promontories rising thousand of feat, penetrated by enormous al coves in which haze and shadow o gorgeous coloring lie engulfed. Some sections, miles and miles i breath and thousands of feet' thick have' pushed straight up, so that thei strata remains as before; still othe sections are bent and crumpled uncle prodigious side pressure, while al have been,. broken down and won away until now they are only.,colossa fragments of the original uplifts. At Banff, an altitude of 4.521 feet situated in the Canadian National Pi'hk, ' are located the hot springs. the ie he big he ry all ap he ale ch ed T in g it s ed e e d 1- - s f n r r r n 1 This park is a national reservation .of 5,732 square miles, embracing parts of the valleys of the Bow, Spray and Cascade rivers, Lake Minniwanka and- several noble mountain ranges. Beyond are the Divide and the Yoho Valley. This national park is the largest in the world, being nearly one-half as large again as the Yellowstone Park of the United States. '=No part of the 'Rockies exhibits a greater variety of sublime scenery, and nowhere are good points of view and features of interest so accessible, since many ex- cellent roads and bridle paths have been recently constructed. Banff is in the midst of many impressive mountains. Northward is Cascade Mountain, 9,826 feet;' eastward is Mount Inglismalde and the Height of Fairholme of the Fairholme subrange, beyond which lies Lake Minniwanka. The sulphur springs at Banff are noted for their curative properties and each year are the gathering places for tourists from all parts of the world. Twenty miles south of Banff is Mount Assiniboine, the Matterhorn of the new world, the ascent of which, after several unsuccessful attempts, was made in the autumn of 1901 by James-Out>;am and a party of Swiss guides. velop this charming frock, with _filet � ye d s s •s s. t t. 4 e m th lace for trimming.

It need not be that the walls of he Royal Academy in London are a preserve.for those who have had a special art training. Good pictures often comb from quite unexpected places. A publican is" quite a fre- quent exhibitor, whilst recently a quartermaster of the Royal Engineers had a picture exhibited, and a railway clerkand several postmen -thanks to the Post Office :Arts C lu -ha C b v e been exhibitors at our principal art exhibi- tion within. recent years. The best known policeman -artist is undoubtedly Constable Jones, ' of Leeds, who has had many canvases accepted, and 'hung, and one of the. brilliant "bobby's" pupils -Mr. Walter Marshall, a tram-repairer—has "'also been "hung several times—in _ the artistic and not in the criminal sense, although he has been in the hands of the police so long. He was only twenty-three when his first picture was accepted. The fact is that there is likely to be a great widening of artistic accom plishment in this country, because col- or "work has been taken 'up so eathu- siastically in the people's schools. And if this development is well .directed and fostered, it should help us to coin- Pete with any other country in the world in the beauty of our designs in manufactured' articles, for art is not a thing of the studio only, but of the workshop. Paper board, one of the best noncom-, duetors of heat known, makes an ideal mat for the dining table. The upper side ofthe board is made liquid proof, while the underside, that next to the polished table, is as soft as felt. These t paper mats are made to fit standard size tables, and can be bought at a t much lower rate than the heavy felt - pad, "FIG,HTING" ANIMALS. The Yarns About •Fighting to the Death Not Founded on Fact. It is a%great error fox the senti- mental nature writers, or "nature fakers,"- as they have been termed, to describe battles to the, death between well -matured: antagonists: either of different kinds or the same species.. Animals do fight and for"many rea- sons; hunger may compel one to at- tack another if he thinks he can get away with the job of killing it; trvo males may scrap savagely over the complicated p ed question of courtship; or two or more of either sex may fight over a bit of food or a kill. But, how- ever strong the incentive, however deep the 'anger, there is always the sense of injury and•'the painof in- flicted hurts to cause these creatures to cease before being very badly clawed up, bitten or torn. There is never enough of gameness to warrant a fight' to the death unless an antag-' onist is so superior to another that its injuries are slight in comparison , to what it nisy'sustain. r' Wildcats sometimes get into fights' that make the woods resound with their snarls and growlings, but they quit before much harm• is done, one generally being whipped. ' Foxes fight` also, shedding blood on the late win- ter snows, and now and then they get into pretty evenly ' matched contests with racoons and minks. Minks also fight each other, often over the food question; one having catight fish, bird or mouse that an- other covets entire, but while this is sharp and savage one quits before great injury is done. Bears generally get along with a growl toward those whom they can- not tolerate; rarely do they coine....to blows. There is a common agreement o keep sof of each other's domains, or hunting grounds, which have ra- her definite though wide limits. Occasionally bears and pumas have bc.tn known to have streniuous i argu This is to certify that fourteen ars ago I got the cords of my left wrist nearly severed, and was for about nine months that I had no use of my hand, and tried other Liniment, also doctors, and was receiving no benefit. By a persuasion from a friend I got MINARD'S LINIMENT and used one bottle which completely cured me, and have been using MIN- ARD'S LINIMENT in my family ever since and find it the same as when I first used it, and would never be 'with- out it. ISAAC E. MANN. Aug. 31st, 1903. Metapedia, P. O. LITERARY VALUE OF FOOD. Cearacter of Writer's Product is Governed by His Diet. The amateur literary craftsman will do well to' look to the quality and character of his three meals a day. An investigator who has been check- ing up on literary history has evolved the curious theory that the quality and ,character of literary product is gov- erned almost entirely by the diet or the writer. A literary man, according to the new thought, `can get any kind of a game he wants by regulating his diet. Toast and tea, for instance, would be about the right feed for Spring poetry,. While v le pigs knuckles and sauerkra t ?l would be fine for any topic that called for plain speaking, right to the point. Thus J. Whitcomb Riley was at his best when subsisting on Graham crackers. When J Whitcomb was in a condition of a•bsoltite hunger he was capable of reaching out and grapping a word to rhyme any time that he wanted it. Mark Twain favored ,champagne and light lunches, and some of his most sparkling humor was tossed off after lunch, Ben Johnson, whenever the biscuits were stale there was a distinct note of pessimism in his writing. Carlyle wrote some of his most pon-i ISSUE No. 29—'17. deroue messages on, a cornbeef ,and cabbage diet. Poe was particularly given to melancholy poetry after toy- ing with beer and pretzels, Dante,: we are told, wrote "The Inferno" after absorbing a heavy meal composed al- most exclusively of macaroni that was a trifle underdone. No doubt, by watching literary pro- duction closely, we can, in time, segre- gate the Menu into its varied literary meanings. Even now there is a strong impression that various writers are subsisting on sawdust, baled hay, rhu- barb and dessicated barbed wire. have you a little writer in your home?

LIFT A CORN OFF WITHOUT PAIN Cincinnati man tells how to dry up a corn or callus so it lifts offewith fingers. r s. o 0 You corn -pestered men and women need suffer no longer. Wear the shoes that nearly killed you before, says this Cincinnati authority, because a few drops of freezone applied directly an a tender, aching corn or callus, stops soreness at once and soon the corn or hardened callus loosens so it can be lifted off, root and all, without pain. A small bottle of freezone costs very little at any drug store, but will posi- tively take off every hard or soft corn or callus. This should be tried, as it is inexpensive and is said not 'to irri- tate thesurrounding s g loundin skin.. If you druggist hasn't any freezone tell him to get a small bottle for you from his wholesale drug house. It is fine stuff and acts like a charm every time.
