The scenes of vest were, however, more readily ac- cessible than are the minieg camps of untrodden wilderneests, arid as a result the number of fortune-hunters has been extraordinary. So many laborers have taken advantage of the reduced rates of transportation offered by the railways that the sup- ply of labor is fully equal to the de- mand, and wages have made no ma- terial increase over those of former years. 'Those who expected to find money lying round loose, and imag- ined that they would have nothing to do but to load it on to flat cars and bring it home, are rather die - appointee. They refuse work at reasonable remuneration arid are congregatiag at the principal points along the railway where they are fed at the public expense. Between meals they hold riotous meetings and threaten the peace. Such men should be treated as 'coinraon vag- rants and gaoled. It would be quite like our tactics in South Africa, to round up a goodly number of them and employ them in some useful it work. They would have had a shadow of justification if they had been enticed away from. employment at home by false promises. 'But Many of them went up with the impression that scarcity of labor -would enable them to dictate terms se to the farmers, thereby robbing, the hard-working tiller; of the soil of much of his just profits, But, they have been circum- vented'. The stations are congested with the unemployed. The C.P.R. will take them free of charge to out- lyiug .districts where plenty of work is to be had. at frona thirty to forty dollars a month, but will not bring them home again, unless they aae se- riously ill, until they have a certifi- cate to the effect that they have helped to gather in the harvest.

One winter, I remember, there arose a, great and sudden demand for it tough mixture, known as balsam of black currant and wild cherry. It is- a proprietary remedy and it very good one. It is also expensive. and, like most proprietary preparations, yields but little profit to the retailer. So the chief set to work with water, a "simple" syrup, citric acid, and li- quid cochineal, and concocted a ture which. 1 would have defied any- one but it chemist to tell from the real thing, at a cost to himself of less than a penny a bottle. This concoction answered our purpose, and may customers have since testified to the benefits they derived from it. CLERKS BEQUEATH KONEY. bad state, my constitution being greatly run down. I -was troubled with continual headaches, my aPP0- tite was poor and the least exertion greatly fatigued nie. I consulted n. physician but his treatment did not appear to benefit me and I gradually became worse, so that I could hardly attend to my household duties. I then tried several advertised reme- dies but without result, and I began Servants Give Sums of Money to Employers. It is not uncommon for wealthy employers to make testimentary be- quests in favor of their employes, but cases where the e ositions are re- versed are very rare indeed.. Never- theless we have come across a few cases of servants bequeathing con- siderable sums of money to erne ley - ors, in one or two cases under par- ticularly interesting circumstances. Twenty-three thousand francs was the amount in hard-earned cash be- queathed by a clerk to an eminent but unlucky French advocate, There was no •desire to propitiate a shal- low conscience in the motive of this bequest, only a real affection in the clerk for his master, an affection al- most like that of father for son. .To make this little fortune of, ap- proximately, 131,750, the aged clerk had regularly laid aside half his sal- ary and had underta,ken a great deal of very remunerative work in his Sparc time. The late Duke of Westminster once received a bequest from an old wo- man who was retained in his employ for many years in a laumbleposition. The bequest only amaunted to $.1.t and a few pence, but .the grateful old creature declared before slie died that the amount was what she had saved and urged me to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. • Having tried so many medicines without receiving benefit, I was Bat easily permitted, but finally I consented to give the pills a trial. To my surprise and great joy I noticed animprovement in my condi- tion before I had finished the first box and by the time had token four boxes of the pills I was fully re- stored to health. I no longer suffer from those severe headaches, my ap- petite is good, I can go about rny household duties without the least trouble; in fact I feel like a new NV 0 - man. All this I owe to that best of all medieines, Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and I would strongly -urge oth- er sufferers to give them a trial." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are recog- nized the world over as the best blood and nerve tonic, and it is this power of acting' directly on the blood and nerves .which enables these pills_ to cure such diseases as locomotor ataxia, paralysis, St. Vitus' dance, sciatica, neuralgia, rhemnatism, ner- vous headache, the after effects of in grippe. palpitation of the heart, that tired feeling resulting from ner- youi•ProstratiOn; all diseases restilt- in.g from ' vitiated humors in the bloode..such asestrofula, chronic ery- sipelas, etc. -Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold by all dealers in ineeie ciao or can be bad by mail,. post paid, at 504pents a box, or six box- es for $2,50, by addressing the' Dr, Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Oat.

Any member of the Swedish Royal family who marries outside the charmed circle of 'loyalty forfeite all rights to the throne of his country. Prince Oscar Bernadotte is the King's second 'son. Twelve years ago he fell in love with a sweet and pretty•young girl, Miss Ebba Munck. Unheeding all he had to lose, he pro- posed to her. But she, unwilling to permit such a sacrifice, slipped quiet- ly away and became a Sister of Mercy in the Stockholm Charity Hos- pital. Oscar, mad with grief, went to his mother and implored her per- mission to marry. At last it was given, and, arraed with this, he hur- ried after his beloved, and convinced bar that, he could not live without her. They were married and now ha-ve both given themselves up to the cause of religion. They are energet- ic Salvation Army workers, and the sermons of the young rriv ce draw huge audiences.
