It is your old enemy, rheumatism,

and outward lotions, but cannot get

Elmo It w0.8 a very common thing
for a native, when going up for an
examination for some minor ap-
pointment, to get a. man more learn-
ed than himself to impersonate him.
So common did this become that it
was found necessary to take the
thumb -mark of every candidate for a

Lacombe, Sorel, Que., says: "For

Often I could not dress myself with-

DUE TO IIIS MATES.
It requires a very practised eye to
distinguish ono nigger from nuuthe•,
and the poor paymaster, when con-
fronted with a Now of ni,gl,lrs, was
quite unable to swear to his num.
In runny mines the thumb system
was adopted, and n nigger, on re-
ceiving his wages, was obliged to
make his thumb -mark as a receipt
for the money, And although two
niggers are as alike as two peas, no
two niggers' thumb -marks are iden-
tical.
One of the most famous thus -ob-
it -lark cases tools place in India a
couple of years ago. A tea -planter
was murdered in his garden for tho
purpose of theft and the murderer
got away, apparently leaving no
clue for the police. Some few weeks
after the crime, however, certain
thumb -marks were found on an atlas
belonging to the deceased which had
been among the papers tho murderer
had rummaged in his search for
booty. Oa examination of rho
marks ft was found that they corre-
sponded exactly with the thumb re-
cord of a noted criminal then at
large. I3e was arrested some hun-
dreds of miles away from tho scene
of the crime, and was found guilty
by the jury.
TITLED SERVANT GIRLS.
In many parts of the Continent the
father's title is inherited by all his
children, and there are aeveraa vil-
lages in Austria, 'Polaad, and Rus-
sia in which all the peasants are
legitimately doscolnled from some
princely ancestor, They are legally
described as "princes" in all official
documents, and on leaving their
homes many of these peasant princes
lind themselves sadly hampered by
the burden of a high-sounding title.
They cannot get rid of the titles,
however, as they aro purely per -
motel ones and not marketable com-
modities, like so Arany in Italy and

TITh] REASON OF 11'.
So many of our readers are in-
terested in farming matters that the
(eel justified in occasionally devot-
ing a little sired to tho question of
farm implements.
As is wall known, the crops in
most parts of Canada last harvest
ware very heavy ; especially 41811
this so in tho Canadian Northwest.
Wo are not able to foretell what the
next crop will be like. Conse-
quently it is desirable to bo prepared
for emergencies.
Wo learn on good authority that
the binder which established the
best record in Canada last year was
the Massey -Harris.
And the reason that it did so
magnificently in the heavy grain was
that it is equipped with a floating
upper elevator. Should a big bunch
of grilin bo carried by the conveyor
canvas to the elevators, the upper
elevator automatically rises to ad•
suit of it passing up freely, There
is, therefore, no choking or stop-
ping,
This is a splendid device, specially
introduced by the MassoyeHarris
people, who are to bo congratulated
on the progressive methods they em-
ploy in tho manufacture of farming
implements.
They aro a Canadian concern, too,
which makes us tho more proud of
their success.

with a microscope, the edge of a
knife whetted on aluminum appears
mach smoother and straighter than.
