The Old mate was dying. The Great White Plague had Wm in its grasp, taking another to make up its an, nue.' toll from the rapidly -diminish - (ng ranks of the Indian people. He lay at the far•side of a bark tepee on. a couch raised a foot from the ground, Under the couch were fiat stones heated in the fire, Although It was July, a rabbit, skin robe, the warmest of all furs, was wrapped about the emaciated figure. Over the coverlet the face showed sharply, the features bearing the unmistak- able signs of death. Close to the sloping walls sat the squaws and the n papooses, their heads bowed, their shawls closely drawn, silent, motion- less, awaiting the end. Near by burned the camp -fire of four h.hite men—two of them fire rangers, the third a prospector, and the fourth a. French "squaw -man." The evening meal was past; pipes were lit, and the four gazed silently down intothe glowing embers—each building for himself there air castles, which rose, trembled, crumbled, and fell into the ashes. The sun had gone behind a mountain; and already long shadows danced and trembled on the bosom of --the lake, where another shadow, more sinister, hovered over the bark tepee, hesitated, and de- scended—the 'Shadow of Death. A slight cry came from the direction of the tepee; then the quick patter of moccasined feet. "Ole man, dead—is died just now I' The next day preparations were Made for. the funeral. The village eofiinmalcer brought boards, talked and gesticulated with the men; con- sidered apart from them, and finally manufactured a rough. box. Canoes were drawn up on the beach; the dogs were silent, and whispered soft ly to themselves. "Want to come to the bury?" ask- ed ICow-task, son of the deceased, of the white men, who accepted the invitation, because the law of the frontier gave them no option. The corpse was borne out of the tepee by four stalwart Indians and placed gently in the canoe. "Very big man become small—not much now, 1 guess," remarked Kow- tash. The canoe containing the coffin started from the shore, followed by a second canoe, in which were the four white men and an Indian. To- gether they moved toward the grave- yard, a quarter of a mile distant across the bay. In a few moments the bows grated on the sandy 'beach, and the Indians immediately held a consultation regarding the choice of a suitable location for the grave. In the meantime the birch bark canoe containing the squaws put out from the village and followed. Finally same Chief Outwin, dexterously pad- dling in the stern of his canoe (in spite of his seventy years), while a small grandson,grotesque in a -black fedora hat three sizes too large, pad- dled in the bow. An aged squaw, the wife of the deceased, knelt with bow- ed head by the side of the corpse, while her daughter stood telling a string of beads and softly •murmur- ing the rosary. Chief Outwin sat smoking in the shade, brushing aside the mosquitoes and black flies with a balsam bough. Throwing down their spades, the bearers took up the coffin and lowered it into the grave. The daughter advanced and sprinkled the coffin with water, in imitation of the. Roman Catholic ceremony, of which she had the crude knowledge which comes of observance. The remaining squaws, almost pic- hiresque in plaid shawls and colored head -clothes, showed no sign of in- terest or grief. The men stood lean- ing on their shovels; one e removed his hat. • Poor ole man have bard time, you bet," said Kow-tash, as the grave was being filled. "Plenty fanlike, not much flsh no, winter him long, tall snow; him hungaree some time; cold all time, I guess." On the mound of fresh earth a wooden cross was planted, bearing the name of the dead man carved in rough letters.- The grave was cover- ed with a quilt of birch bark, strips sewn together, to be replaced later by a wooden covering similar to the roof 'of a house. As, the bark of the birch protected the dead man from "kamewun".(rain) during his life- time, the inembere of the tribe will not believe that it can lose its vir- tues after death. Formerly, in pagan times, within the grave -roofs, the Indians placed a tomahawk, bow and arrows, a hunting -knife and pipe, so that the disembodied spirit, return- ing from the happy Hunting. .Grounds to visit its native haunts, might learn that the dead are not forgotten by the living. The funeral over, all turned to- ' ward the canoes, except the aged squaw, who paused at the grave to wipe away' ittrtively a few tears shed for the warrior who lay so quietly ..,,:beneath the little mound of sand on tile edge of the forest.—J.

An illness caused by leek o blend will be benefited and cured by a course of treatment with Dr Williams' Pink Pills. Those Pill increase the red matter in th blood and enable it to carry to every organ and tissue an inereas ed supply of oxygen, the grent'sup porter of all organic life.. This has been proved by. cures iu thousands of eases not only in Canada but in all parts of. the world. More peo- ple to -day owe health and happi- ness to Dr. Williams' Pink'Pills than to: any other medicine, Otte of these is M. James Starr, of Gala- had, Alta., ,who .says; "A few years ago I bceamo ill and very weak. Some days I would have a hot dry fever and on others would be bathed in' a cold sweat. I grew weaker and t a weaker n' t w e u co ll ti I t t 1 do no hind of work and was final- ly confined to my bed. I tried sev- eral doctors, who cost me ooesid- arable money, but did me no good, as I was still getting weaker and weaker. I asked the last doctor who attended me to tell me frank- ly if he could cure. me, and he told me my ease was so complicated that he did not think he could help me. I told him I bac, heard a great deal about Dr. Williams' Pink' Pills and asked if he thought they would help me. His reply was ; `Weil, they wcn't do you any harm and they may help you.' I sent for'a half dozen boxes at once and began tak- ing them. After taking three boxes there was no doubt they were help- ing me, and I continued using them for some time longer. With the result that I am now as strong and hearty and can do as good a day's work as any man; in my neighbor- hood." These Pills are sold by all medi- cine dealers or may be had by mail at 50 oents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams' Me- dicine Co., Brockville, Ont. DIFFICULT TO SHOOT. 1?

Arthur E. McFarlane. • Arthur E. McFarlane is a Canadian; just as much as that other Arthur,• crony of his yclept Stringer, with whom he fried pancakes in New Yore many a month; yes, with Canadian Harvey O'Higgins, too. They were a oily, brainy but impecunious three; id of them that once in those hatch- ing years one of them at last sold a story. The three adjourned to a gild- ed restaurant, took a table at the rear end and looked -critically over the bill of fare, as if any one of them could have, bought out the entire menu. "What are.you going to have?" said each to each Impossible to decide. "Oh—guess we'll take fried eggs," said one of the Arthurs. That was long before either Arthur E. McFarlane or Arthur Stringer be- came a top -liner in the United Status periodicals. A census of the really big stories and articles in the leading United States magazines would show a large percentage due to the Canadian colony in New York of whom McFar- lane is one of the brightest. He was born near Stratford, Ont„ has travel. ed a good bit; written a great variety of good things; is an omnivorous worker; lives most of his time at Birch Cliff, near Toronto. lust at present he is on a shoepack jaunt to the Peace River, incidentally picking up some good things and at bunk -times when the rest of the gang is asleep pegging away at a novel he must deliver in the early fall.—Canadian Courier.

Numerous formalities have to be gone through before any new peer is entitled to take his seat in the house of lords. One of the most important matters is the preparation of the patent, a long strip of parchment, to the end of which Is aMxed the wax seal, the color of which varies, according to the rank of the new member, Another item is the robe, made of scarlet cloth with three doubiings of ermine, the number of bars varying according to rank. Thus a duke has four bars to front and the same number behind, a mar- quis one less, and so on.. Then there are preparations in re- gard to making or changing coats of arms, in connection with which fees to the extent of about 50 guineas are paid by the recipient of a summons to the house of lords. Altogether the doaueial disburse- ments amount in the case of a new earl to between 1600 and 1700, some of which finds its way to the chancel- lor of the exchequer and some to the crown as represented by the college of arms. A considerable portion of this expenditure is, of course, incurred in. the purchase of the coronet.—Lon- don News. A Left Banded Man.

In New Zealand Women Are More Than Welcome to the Franchise. The statute extending the franchise to New Zealand women was passed in 1893. Since then there have been six Parliaments elected by the joint votes of the men and women of New. Zee, land. In all of these elections, says the North American Review, the wo- men of the country have taken their full share.: ' The proportion of women who vot- ed at each election compared with those whose names were on the rolls have been almost exactly the same as that of the male voters. There are not at present in New Zealand as many women as men, and the actual vot- ing power of the women is nearly 10 per cent. less than that of the men. Practically, however, all who can do so vote at eack election. The fears expressed at the time the franchise was given them that the re- sult would be either that the women' would vote just as their huebands and fathers told them to vote or that the new privilege would mean dissension in families and the practical degrada- tion of the women have not bean jus- tified by the experiences. The women of New Zealand vote at elections as a matter of course just as they partake of their meals or do any other ordinary duty .of everyday life. The principal change produced by the new order of things, as far as the family life of the people is con- cerned, would seem to be that what may be called political questions have become matters of general interest in- stead of being as formerly matters which were tacitly presumed to be outside the sphere of one-half the fam- ilIn the platter of the extended fran- chise, therefore, it was not theory but practical experience that won the day. It was not because women were human beings as much as men; it was not even because they were in- telligent human being to wham men were ready to entrust the case of their homes and families; it was because they believed on the evidence of ex- perience that women if they could vote would take an intelligent interest in public questions and would by their votes forward the best interests of the country and its people.

The Antiquity of the Ballet. Strictly defined,' the ballet is 'proper- ly a theatrical exhibition of the art of dancing to its highest perfection, com- plying generally with the rules ot the drama as to its composition and form. It was inexistence in Italy as far back as A. D. 1500, the court of Turin in that day making especial use of It and the royal family and nobles taking part in it The ballet was first intro- duced in Prance In the reign of Louis XIII., and both that monarch and Louis XIV, occasionally took part in its dances. About the year 1700 wom- en made their first appearance in the ballet, which up to that time had been performed exclusively by men, as was the case also with plays and operas, but no woman ballet dancer of any note appeared until 1700. How She Caught Them. "Flow did you happen to get four times as many letters as I did?" said one washerwoman who had advertised for work by the day to another who had advertised for the same thing. "Wound up my advertisement by saying 1 was on a diet" said the lucky one. "That 'oa a diet' notice goes right to the heart of stingy souls who are trying to tut down expenses.

Flippant Son—No, dad, 1 never did.—E cllainge. Sir Frederick Treves, one of the eminent physicians: in England, has attacked what he valla. the "old wives' theory" that persons catch colds in draughts. He recommends draughts as excellent things for the health and as preventive of colds. "The idea is absurd," said he "No cold ever had such an origin. Colds are the result not of draughts but of stuffy rooms. Don't mind sitting in a draught. It will do you good. In this age, when women are elamoriag for something to do, surely it would not be amiss for them to take up an educational crusade against the scourge of consuniption.' Another physician, commenting on this opin- ion, said: "By rebreathing the air of a stuffy room the germs of a cold are likely to be taken into the system, especially if there is another person in the room who has a cold, But introduce a draught in the room and sit in the draught, and, no matter bow nta,ny persons with colds are in the room, if you breathe the pure air in the draught you will not inhale the Cold germ, and you will be all right. I, for my part, know of no disease that is due to a draught." Natural Gas Near Cookeville. While drilling for water on the farm of Harrison Hisy, two miles north of Cooksville, recently, natural gas was struck at a depth of 248 feet.

MoNicholl, vice-president of the C.P.R., once had an irrascible, though very capable G.P.A. at an important point on the system. Whenever the G.P.A. ran a tilt with the vice-presi- dent, which was not infrequent, he would write his resignation to the vice-president. Mr. McNicholl, with true Scotch imperturbability, stowed the resignation away in his desk ani in course of time bad quite a collec- tion of them. By and bye the G.P.A. got cross with some other official and red in a resignation to that gentleman. It took considerable diplomacy on Mfr. Me- Nicholl's part to get the matter into his hands for adjustment, but he fin- ally succeeded. Then he wrote the G.P.A. and asked him in future to send his resignations direct to the vice-president where they would be properly dealt with. It is said that broke the G.P.A. of the resignation habit. Any way be is still in the com- pany's service. England's Army of Unemployed. Despite the $80,000,000 annually spent by Great Britain to relieve dia• tress, there are to -day 7,000,00.9 people in that country in actual want from lack of work. It is this vast army of unemployed that constitute Eng- land's emigrants, and in the last four years the Salvation Army alone has started over 50,000 of them on their way to Canada. The general worthiness of this class is testified to by the fact that of all those emigrat- ing under the auspices of the Salva- tion .army, less than one per cent. failed to make good.
