BIG CRIMES FOR vEax

•Thwaeted Ambitions the Greatest
Incentive to These Awful
Deeds,
Apart from reunion by mere lune.-
- tics,. the, well reraerabered crime of
two yeare ego on the South -Western
Railway, cig Ifiegland, was one of the
most pmemseless on record. The
rntu .who sot Mr. Pea,rson could
at moot have hoped to get 'ten
pounds by his horrible deed. Oon-
, sidering .also that there was a wit -
aces in tho sanee compartment in
the shape of Mrs. King, he must
have Im.own that he must either kill
• liee also or resign all hope of es-
caping, As EL matter of fact, he UIU
7Fhoot her, too, and it was the
merest happy chance that she did
not share the fate of Mr. Pearson.
Far mor o terribly cold-blooded
were the crimes of that monster
Abel Meson, the Yorkshire farmer,
Who destroyed bis whole family be-
cause he wished to marry again.
Mason had been married twice, and
was
LET* A WIDOWER,
With five children—all boys—at the
age of forty-two. It is said that be-
fore his second wife had beee in her
grave three months Mason proposed
to the :daughter of Et, neighboring
farmer, wile refused him, and that
only six weeks iater he asked an-
other young woman to marry him.
It could hardly, therefore, have been
love that induced him to enter on
his series of horrible crimes. The
third object of his affections was a
young widow; but she refused him
on the ground that she could not
be botherecl with a lot of children.
Very soon afterwards one of Mason's
boys 'died; within another month
a second fell ill, and followed his
brother. Before two years were
•over all five boys wee° 'dead, Then
Mason went to the widow and ask-
ed her again to be his wife. But
her suspicions were aroused, and she
communicated with the authorities.
Mason was arrested, and the bodies
exhumed. As was suspected, traces
of poison—arsenic—were found in
each case, and the inhuman father
inet-the fate he so richly deserved.
Pride seems a curious motive to
drive a man to murder another—es-
pecially when the other is his
friend. But the mind of a Spaniard
is not constituted like that of
AN AVERAGE ENGLISHMAN.
Some years ago a young Englishman
named Stephens went to stay with
a Spaniard named Espinosa, whose
home was in Catalonia. Stephens
bad met Espinosa before in London,
and the two had become friendly.
'When Stephens went to Spain
Espinosa was almost at the end of
his tether. He was in debt, and on
the verge of selling his home. Ste-
phens, who was very well off, fell in
love with Espinosa's sister, and the
two became engaged. One day Ste-
phens received -a remittance of
k500 from. home. Knowing how
iterdetiethis host was, he offered to
lend him the money. But the latter
'refused it. He was too proud to ac-
cept a, loan from his sister's lover.
. However, when night came he re-
solved to steal the money. Stephens
awoke to find a bueglar in his room
and, in the struggle, fo-und it was
his host, whereupon Espinosa stab-
bed and killed him. At his trial
Espinosa, confessed the whole busi-
ness; and, curiously enoegh, it did
not seem to strike his judges as odd
that he had attempted to rob a
guest rather than borrow
•MONEY WILLINGLY OFFERED.
Ono November morning in 1857 the
•. calcined remains of a human. body
. were found in a lime -kiln in ISortle
. Derbyshire. T.he identity of the de -
'teased was a mystery for a long
time afterwards, until two men,
named Wheeler and Deney, were ar-
rested for a murderous assault near
Buxton. Wheeler became ill in yris-
on, and before he died confessed
that it was he ana Deney who had
killed the man whose remains had
been found in the kiln. 'The three
• of them had been playing cards to-
gether, and this -third main, whose
name was Pope, had won one-and-
sevenpence. It was to regain this
-sum that the others had brutally
murdered him..
Yet even this does not equal the
proceedings of a Roman innkeeper
named Varo, wile, with three ac-
• complices, has just been sentenced to
• life-long imprisonment for murder.
Two peasants came to his inn, and
stole two glasses value each. 'The
• innkeeper and his friends followed
• the thieves, and, when they caught
• them, literally slashed them to
• pieces with their knives. A point
worth remarking about this crime
Is that all four of the murderers
'were members of the "Anti -Knife
League."
Durk° and Hare, and others of
• the body -snatching fraternity, were
not rsatisfied with digging up the t
bodies of the dead for the purp'ose
of. selling them to anatomists—they
„ . actually committed nany murders
for the comparatively trifling sum
which 'they

One imagines horrible crimes of this

THEIR GROWING POPULARITY
• IN THE DOMINION. ,
Sketch of the Work Which Has
Been. Accomplished in Prince
Edward Island.
In view of the great success of the
Farmers' Institute as a ineans of
Education in Ontario, the Dominion
Department of Agriculture has en-
deavored to co-operate with the var-
ious Focal departments in establish-
ing and improving similar systems
in their respective provinces. Train-
ed speakers have been sent to assist
in the work in other provinces, and
the best available men in these pro-
• vinces have beim pressed into ser-
vice, not only in their own province,
but in others as well. By sending
able and observant men from one
province to another in this way we
hope to get together a thoroughly
capable corps of Destitute workers,
familiar with the agricultural situ-
ation and requirements in all parts
of Canada.
Prof. E. J. McMillan, of Char-
lottetown, P. E. I., Superintendent
of Farmers' Institutes, etc., has pre-
pared a sketch of the work already
accomplished in Prince Edward Is-
land, which may be of interest and
benefit to those interested in agricul-
tural education in other provinces.
According to Prof. McMillan:
"The organization of Farmers' In-
stitutes in Prince Edward Island was
first undertaken in June. 1001. At
that time the Hon. Benjamin Rog-
ers, , Commissioner of Agriculture,
assisted by the writer and two ex-
perienced Institute workerssupplied
by the Department, of Agriculture at
Ottawa, held meetings of farmers in
different sections of the province, for
the purpose of discussing the advan-
tages of the Institute system. As
a result of these meetings the or-
ganization of twenty Institutes was
completed
BDIFCRE THE END OF MEW
YEAR.
The Farmers' Institute system of
Prince Edward Island is two -fold in
its aims. It seeks to combine the
educational features of the Ontario
system with the facilities for deal-
ing in live stock afforded by the old
Agricultural Societies' plan. Each
organization is a Farmers' Institute
and Agricultural Society combined.
A Government grant of $50 is paid
annually to each society, which has
at least 50 members enrolled, and
collects $40 per year in membership
fees. A sum amounting to $1,000
was expended in this way last year.
The total membership up to Decem-
ber 31st, 1901, was 1,624. and ihe
amount subscribed in fees was
$911.50. The receipts of the Insti-
tutes from all sources amounted to
nearly $2,000. This money was ex-
pended in the purchase of pure-bred
stock and in defraying the expenses
of lecturers. Thirty-three meetings,
chiefly for the purpose of organiza-
tion. were held during the first year.
At the beginning of the first year a
regular series of Institute meetings
was arranged and carried out suc-
cessfully. Several speakers were
employed and various agricultural
topics were brougbt up for discus-
sion, chief among which were, dairy-
ing, hog raising and chicken fatten-
ing. As all of these are live indus-
tries at present, the interest mani-
fested in .the meetings was great.
The attendance throughout was
good, fully 2,000 .people being
brought in contact with the teeter -
ere, who were ,not slow to take ad-
vantage of every opportunity to im-
part lessons, of practical value. Al-
ready the,,influence of this public dis-
cussion of agricultural questions is
shown in an increased interest in ev-
erything which makes for the ad-
vancement of the calling*. The de-
mand for pure-bred stock for breed-
ing purposes, which has more than
doubled during the past year, may
be cited as one instance of a benefit
already derived from the Thetitutes.
It may also be shownthat an ad-
vancement has taken place along
other lines. The people realizethis
and are anxious that tuore educa-
tional meetings Should be held."
During the month of July a ser-
ies of mid -summer leatures were
given before the Institutes by Prof.
H. H. Dean and Mr. D. Drummond,
repeesenting he Death -don Depart:.
meet Of .Ageipuiturge.besides eveeret
loPal !spaitkeree With One Or two ex-
ceptions where the advertising fail-
ed,
THEY WERE A GRAND SUCCESS.
The'fainiers turned 'out well and
manifested a deep interest in the
meetings. Twenty -,seven Listitutes
were visited, and an afternoon and
evening meeting held at each. The
average attendance at the after-
noon meetings was betweeu 50 and
Ciea while in some instances there
were over 100 people present. The
illustrated lectures on dairy cattle
which. formed the chief feature of
these meetings, were entirely new to
our farmers and were very well re-
ceived. The average attendance at
the evening meetings was fully 100.
In these too, a Marked interest .was
taken, and free discussion indulged
in, until in many instances it was
11 o'clock before the meeting could
be brought to a close. Prof. Dean,
as was expected, has done excellent
Work. It seeins to inc that we are
very fortunate in securing his ser-
vice just -at this time, as the dairy-
ing business has -not been growing
Much of late, and I feel sure that we
may have a revival of the industry
wherever he has gone. Mr. Drum-
mond, too, has given excellent satis-
faction. The people were very fav-
orably impressed with his work in
live stock, and in other bees. We
should like to have both gentlemen
again. The impressions created by
these Meetings has been very fav-
orable and I am confident that the
Institutes here have been much
strengthened as a result. That the
close of the present year will wit-
ness a considerable growth in the
Institute system is already assured.
Six new organizations have been
completed thus far this year, and it
is probable that more will be added
before it closes. With -an increas-
ing membership and a lively inter-
est manifested in the work by its
members, the Farmers' Institute sys-
tem should soon become a, factor in
the progress of agriculture in this
province."

HOT WEATHER AILMENTS.
More Little Ones Die Daring Hot
Weather Months Than at Any
Other Seasoa.
It is a lamentable fart that thous-
ands of little ones die from hot
weather ailments, whose lives might
be spared if mothers had at hand
the proper remedy to administer
promptly. Hot weather ailments
come suddenly, and unless eronaptly
treated, a Precious little life may be
lost in a few hours. Baby's Own
Tablets pronmtly check and cure
diarrhoea., stomach troubles, cholera
infantum and other hot weather ail-
ments. They also give relief to
teething troubles, and prevent the
ailments that come at this period.
Every prudent mother should keep a
box of Baby's Own Tablets in the
house at all times. No other medi-
cine acts so promptly and so surely,
and the Tablets are guaranteed to
contain no opiate or harmful drug.
They always do good and cannot
possibly do harm, and crushed to a
powder you can give them to the
smallest, sickliest infant. Mrs. Geo.
Foote, St. Thomas, Ont., says :—
"My baby was troubled with diar-
rhoea and was very cross and rest-
less, and got so little sleep I hardly
knew what to do with her. I got a
box of Baby's Own Tablets and after
giving her some her bowels became
regular and she could .sleep well, I
think the Tablets a splendid medi-
cine."
You ca,n get the Tablets at any
drug store or by mail post paid at
25 cents a box by writing to the
Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., 'Brock-
ville, Ont., or Schenectady, N.Y.

stand.
After the Parliament of Canada
passed the. Fruit Marks Act, In 1901,•
the Minister of Agriculture directed
-
that every opportueity should be
afforded the fruit geoWers and pack-
ers of 11w Doniinion to meet its re-
quiremeats and to fulfil their oblige -
Hone to the publin; and for a yeer
the work of the department in this
respect was informational and edu-
cational. This year some amend-
ments were made :to the Act as or-
18'lliallY Passed, andto-clay the Act
in all its provisioes is "as plain as
a pike staff," and every clause of it
so simple that "he who rims may
read." No f armee, Or fruit grower,
or pecker who is honest in his en-
deavors and straightforward in his
trading need fear •any of its cheeses.
The Act is being enforced, and the
inspeceors appointed td execute its
requirements have been instructed to
do ;heir duty. They are the ser-
vants of the crown; Pariiament has
definitely pronounced its imignient
upon the false arid fraudulent pack-
ing and marking of. fruit consign-
ments; and these men have been se-
lected to carry out the regulations
placed on the statute -book for the
purpose of" protecting bonnet trad-
ers from unprincipled deaters, and
of preserving intiolate -the fair (Com-
mercial fame , of Canada from un-
scrupulous packers. In other words,
the Apt will ensure to the public of
the Dominion and to Commission
agents and • the .public generally in
Great Britain and elsewhere that
'the fruit is correctly marked and
• HONESTLY PACKED. . •
The principal sections of the Act
are:
Section .4, Every persoxi who, by
himself or through the ageecy of an-
other person, packs fruit in a clos-
ed package, intended for. sale, shall
cause the package to be marked in a
plain and indelible manner, before
it is taken from the premises where
it is packed. •
(a). With the initials of his Chris-
ten names, and his fell sername and
address. .
(b) 'With the name of the variety
or varieties; and
(c) With a designation of the
grade of fruit, which shall include
ono of the follawing six marks: For
fruit of the first quality, No. 1, or
XXX; for fruit of tha second qual-
ity, No. 2, or XX; and for fruit of
the third • quality, No. 3, or X; but
the said mark may be accompanied
by any other designation of grade,
provided that designation is not in-
consistent - with, or marked more
consPicuousbe than the one of the
said six marks which is used on the
•said package.
Section 5. NO person shall sell,
;express or have in his Possession. for
'sale, any fruit packed in a closed
i•pacleage and intended for sale, tin-
tless such package is: marked as re-
quired by the next preceding sec-
tion. •
Section 0. No person shall sell, or
offer, expose or have in his posses-
sion for sale any fruit packed in a
closed package, upon wbich pack-
age is markect any designation which
representssuch fruit as of No. 1 or
XXX, finest, best or extra good
quality, unless such fruit consist of
.well -grown specimens of ono variety,
sound, of nearly uniform size, of
good color for the variety, of nor-
mal shape, and not less than ninety
per cent. free from scab, worm holes,
bruises and other defects, and pro-
perly packed.
Section 7.. No person shall sell, or
offer, expose or have in his posses-
sion for sale, any fruit packed in
any package in which the faced or
shown surface -gives a false repre-
sentation of the contents of such
package; and it shall be considered
a false representation when more
than fifteen per cent. of such fruit
is substantially smaller in size than,
or inferior in grade to, or different
in variety from, the faced or shown
surface of such package.
Explanations of its application
may be taken thus: On •packages
packed or marked contrary to the
provisions of the Act. Inspectors
may, after notifying the packer by
letter or telegram, place the • words
':falsely packed" or "falsely mark-
ed;" and a fine of $40 may be im-
posed for illegally removing
THE INSPECTOR'S BRAND.
It will be noticed that only "clos-
ed packages" need be •marked. A
closed package is defined to be a
box or barrel, the contents of which
cannot be seen or inspected whon
such is closed. Baskets, berry
crates, Or berry boxes even, With
veneer covers, are not eonsidered
"closed packages," and therefore do
liot require marking. Cranberries
and all wird fruit are not subject
to the provisions of the Act. .
Merchants are held responsible for
the fruit they offer for sale (or fruit
in their possession for sale),'but the
original wrongdoer, if found, will in
every case be prosecuted,
he penalty for a violation of the
law with reference to packing and
marking is not less than twenty -live
cents and not more than one dollar
per package;' for removing an In-
spectdr's brand, forty dollars; for
obstructing an inspector, $25 to
$500. The fines are divided equally
between the informant and the
crown.
Inspectors are given large powers
under the Act to enter premises for
the purpose of making. an examina-
tionand to detain shipments of fruit
for the same purpose. The pecker,
however, is amply protected by the
stipulation that " irnmediate notice
must be given by the inspector to
the packer when fruit. Which at all
timesis at the risk of the owner, is
brarlded or detained, and the inspece
tor who exteeds his authority is
subject to •
. •'A HEAVY PENALTY. •
The main points of this Act MaY
he, Sineined UP, ae o we: • •
(1) he face of all fruit' pack-
ages must fairly represent the fruit
throughout;
.(2) Closed boxes and barrels
must be marked with the name and
address of the packer, the varietr of
the fruit and ite grade;
(8) It is flA offenee within the
meaning of the Act to sell. to offer
for sale, or to have in possession
for sale, frequently packed or
marked fruit, even when the buyer
and seller aro ignorant of the fact,
as well as when one or both have
knowledge of the fact;
Tbe Act does not prevent the
packing or selling of any grade Of
fruit that is properly packed and
marked;
(0) The Act does not provide for
the inspection of particular lots of
fruit at the request of the buyer Or
(6) Commission merchants who,
after notice, handle fruit put up
Contrary to the provisions of. the
Act, will be proceeded against,
(7) There is no definition of
grades marked ' No. 2," "XX,"
"No. 13," or "X."
Already the beneficial effect of
thie .Act is beixtg felt; and when i
is fully known that dishonesty in
packing and describing Canadian
fruit does not exist, an enormous
impetus will be given to our fruit
industry in all the markets of the
world. At present inquiries are be-
ing made concerning the trans-At-
lantic shipments of early Canadian
apples. The Department of Agricul-
ture will not take any responsibil-
ity, but through the Commissioner
of Agricelture.and Dairying will as-
sist in securing cool or cold storage
space ou ocean steamers if early in-
formation be given as to the prob-
able quantity', the date of shipment,
and the destination desired.
It will pay to send only selected
apples of choice individual quality,
and packed in boxes rather than in
barrels. It will be necessary to
have the apples picked and pecked
on the green or firm side, so that
they may be delivered in. the United
'Kingdom in such a state that they
may. be handled with a. very small
percentage of bruised r doctwod oues
by the retail dealers into whose
hands they will go from the whole-
sale centres.

This is the declaration of Mr, T.
H. Belyea, postmaster of this place,
who for a, long time was the -victim
of a very severe case of this painful
disease.
Mr. 13elyea reads the newspapers
and after he had tried plasters, oils
and liniments and all kinds of ex-
ternal remedies as well as doctors'
treatments, with no good results, he
began reading the testimonials of
Dodd's Kidney Pills. lie says :—
'"rhis remedy was so highly re-
commended for Kidney Trouble that
after reeding some testimonials I
concluded to try them for a short
time, but I must admit that having
tried so many things and failed to
obtain a Cure, I had but little faith
that Dodd's Kidney Pills or any-
thing else could or would help rae.
"However, I did not use them
long before I found out, that they
were all and niore than was Claimed

BURN WOOD TO KEEP IT.
Best Kanner to Preseree Its Dux -
ability.
In spite of the substitutioa of
iron and steel for Wood in house
and bridge building, and in the con-
struction of ships, piers, and other
structures, the consumption of wood
increases yearly. All wood decays,
and its value depends chiefly upon
its durability.
The simplest method of preserving
ie charring. Every old farmer
knows that if he burns the end of a
post in the fire until it is covered
with a thin coat of charcoal it will
last from ten to thirty years longer
when set in the ground than if put
there in its normal condition.
Next to this are the paints, which
do excellent work in cold and 'tem-
perate climates. A piece of wood
painted every two or three years
will last centuries; but this does not
apply to wood employed on ships or
in the piles of wharves and bridges.
Marine animals bore through the
paint, and attack the wood beneath..
it.
When you reach the tropics, paint
is almost worthless so far as pre-
venting the attacks of white ants is
concerned. They bore a hole
through the paint, go into the in-
terior of the log of lumber, and eat
out all the tissue without disturb-
ing the paint skin on the outside.
The only process which, seems abso-
lutely efScient is to charge the wood
with some poisonous fluid, which is
antiseptic, non-volatile, and per-
manent.
Solutions of zinc, iron, copper, ar-
senic, and mercury have been tried,
and have all given good results..
The best were obtained by forcing
through the pores of the wood a
strong solution of the double chlo-
ride of a.mmonia and mercury. Af-
ter the wood was charged it was
laid aside to dry, during which op-
eration the ammonia and the water
evaporated, leaving the corrosive'
sublimate uniformly distributed
through the tissue.
