HE 13V -LAW -Is ALL 1 ICHT.—Mr. Editor,
couple of weeks ag you wilted if there
is a by-law in force in .this township pro -
ib ting (tattle from running at large,, as
ev ral farmers in the vicinity of Roxboro
re annoYed by cattle running in this way.
h re is a by-law prohibiting cattle, sheep,
og i and homes from running on roadways,
nd if suit animals trespass on any person's
ro erty they can impound them and put
n claim for damages. There is elate a by-
aw prohibiting drunken persons shouting
r riving furiously on highways, yet some
ar ies have been hurt and have had 'their
igs broken by drunken drivers. My o n
pinion is that it would be better for the
unicipality, and would be for the cOnv n -
i nce of the public, if milk cows were alio
d to run, end the township to charge a fee
f say $3 for a tag permitting a cow to tlie
se of the pasture on the roads. Aid
einly cows wearing thie tag to be
Hewed on the roads. Those p y -
i g for th tag, would be pesonally interest -
e L in ecein that cattle without the tag
N oule not e allowe to run, and it would,
i adeition, furnish uite a nice revenue for
t e towns ip. Poor people also, who want
t keep a c w, and t whose families a cow
ould be a great ben fit, but who cannot
n ar keep cne on acc unt of the difficulty
it dnost of getting p eture, would then be
enabled to et good pasture conveniently
fo one or two cows. There is a lot of grass
o the side of all coi ntry roads which goes
to waste w1ien animals are not allowed to
ru , and in this way it could be profitably
an beaefic al y used. I would also suggest;
th t ifpathianters would level the sides of
th roads the grass would grow better and
th appearance of the roads would be im-
pr ved.—J irk C. MORRISON.

. The Strongest Timber.
A iommititee of the American Association
of R ilway Superintendents has recently lin-
vesti eted the strength of timbers and made
rerep rt which in some ways upset, old ideae.
For th8t00, the committee avers that cen-
teary! to a widespread opinion, knots, even
when i sound and tight, are one of the most
detriinental features of timber for either
beam ii or struts. They also report that, ex-
cept in top logs and very small and young
timber, the heart -wood, as a rule, is not as
strong as the wood farther from the heart of
the ti ee. But logs, if sound, are stronger
than top logs.

Only those who have felt the gonizing
pains of sciatica car form any c nception
of th torture which the victim u dergoes.
The ase of Mrs. Job Palmer, o Fenlon
Fella, w e one of imusual obstin cy and
sever ty and she makes the follov ing affi-
davit in reference to her cure, for the good
of hu ianity : "1 am 29 years of age, and
have ived in thief vicinity all my life. I
had ways enjoyed the best of ha lth until
Nove leer, 1897, when I took a stinging
pain n iny right hip, which seeme 1 to be
in m vry marrow as it effected ei ere+ mus-
cle a d Joint.
I kept up for several weeks, 1lthough
suffe ng the most intense pain, fre ly using
linim nte and many other internal and ex-
terna preparations that gym athizlng
friends would suggest. I was then compell-
ed to stay in bed, as I got so weak and run
down that I could sit up no longer. I re-
ceived several courses of medical treatment,
such as electric batteries, poultioing, etc.,
but got no ease from the excruciating pains
which would shoot down through my leg in-
to my very heel, where ib caused a bursting
feeling, Often I prayed that my heel would
burst, thinking this might give relief. The
limb at last became so nuclei) that a hot iron
could be placed upon it without my having
any knowledge of it. The closing or open-
ing of a door or anyone entering or moving
about in my room, seemed to increase the
pain. For weeks I could not move any part
of my body, and had to lie in one position
all the time. My brother was cured of
rheumatism after every 6 her remedy had
failed, by taking Dr. Williams' Pink
so I thought as a last re ort I would try
them. As the directions said that in severe
cases three pills could be safely taken at, a
dose I took this number three times a day
for about a week, although I got the relief I
so long had prayed for in three days after
taking the first dose. Then,I kept on oak-
ing the pills two at a dose. In a week after
commencing the pills I was able to eget out
of bed and dress myself, and a few weeks
later, When I had gained strength enough,
I Was able to attend to all my household
duties, and f have ever since enjoyed the
beet of health. Friends and neighbors who
were conversant with my case can also tell
you of my terrible suffering and the re-
markable euro effeoted by Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills."

ELEPHANt CRIME.
--H
Intellectual Powers ! Most Apparent in
His Schemes for Revenge.
Few more impressive confideces an
be imparted than one in which e Hineloo
describes how he knows his , elephant
intends to destroy MM. It is all so seem-
ingly trivial, and yet lin reality , of such
deadly significance. Plis story .is so full
of cleealls that prove the inau's profo nd
ii
understanding of what he is talk ng
about that one remains equally ama ed
at the brute's power eo dissemble and its
intended victim's insieht into the would-
be mUrderer's character. And yet, from
the peychological standpoint, an elephent
never -gives any other Bach indication of
Mental power as is 'exhibited in Its re-
venge. That patient, watchful, implac-
able hatred, often provoked simply be-
cause a roan is in attendance upen
another animal (for it is the rule with
tinkers to detest their next neighbor),
speaks more conclusively of a high intel-
lectual guide than all stories, true or
false, that have been told of their abilley.
Such concentration and fixedness of Or -
pose, sueti careful, unrelaxed vigilance,
such perfect and consistent pretense and,
when the time comes, suoh desperate,
unhesitating energy as homicidal animals
exhibit, are impossible without a very
irregular developinent.
No one can deny that if this creature is
great as all its greatness shows itself lin
its crimes. These have caused, it to lee
worshipped in the east, where men vener-
ate nothing but merciless, irresponsible
force, and where an exhibition of those
qualities and traits described fully
accounts for the fOrnaiila, "My lord the
elephant." 1

MOTHERHOOD AS A PROFESSION.
Lack Of Proper Training for It tire Centro
of Most of Illness Amongst Children.-
' "Ideal inetherhood is the work not Of
instinct, letW of enlightened knowledge
conscientiously acquired and carefully
digested," veletas Helen Watterson Moody,
of "The True Meaning of Motherhood„"
in the Ladies' Home Journal. "If
maternity is au, instinct, Motherhood is a
profession; and yet many a, girl under-
takes it with less understanding of its
duties and less anxiety for their discharge
than she gives to the selection of the
tailor who, ie to make her new gowns, or
the costinnee of the bridesmaids in her
wedding probession. Ws quite the fashion
nowadays, in well-to-do families, to pro-
vide the daughters with some special -
training bee ineans of which they could
earn their ciwn bread and butter if this
family fortunes sliCuld suddenly fail. It
is held to be, eitogether wise and propen
to educate a daughter for a possible pro.
fession in a remote contingency, yeti while
19 out of 20 of our girls marry and be-
comes mothets, no training whatever for
the real profession of their lives It
thought to be necessary. Any pract1cin0
physician will tell you that four-fifths of
the illness among children could be
avoided by proper knowledge and care on
the part of the mothers, and yet our girla
feel that they must take up college settlet
relent work, and ieritific whist and the
berries to get a litt e excitement into their
laok-lustre lives ntil the great excite-
ment of marriage omes."
