THE
HIM
EXPOSITOR.
Stopped the Run.
a A. run on a bank is a funny thing," said
the old bank official, who was m a reminis-
oent mood. "It may start without the
slightest cause, and you never kniew Wheit to
expeet it. It may be only a rumor, ie may
be in the air, avid the deed is done. Many
,a good benk has gone to the wall simply be-
cauee there was no way to know that a tun
was in prospect, and there are times when
the soundeat bank in the world _could not
stand an unexpected run.
"A number of years ago, when I was a
young man, I was cashier of a bank in a lit-
tle Australian township. The bank wan in
good eondition and perfectly sound, and we
did not dream that our credit would be
irestioned. But one day a run started with-
ait vearniug, and within two hours there
was a howling mob round the building.
." It was simply impossible for us to meet
all the demands, but I mild out the funds
that we had on hand, knowing fall well that
it was a qttestion of only a few minutes' when
we should be obliged to close.
"Finally the manager of the bank came
to me and said in a low voice-
... Haw ranch longer can we hold out?
" Not over te,n minutes,' I answered,
wiping the beads Of perspiration from my
brow.
"Calmly and deliberately he reached over
-to the money case, picked up a £5 note,
rolled it lengthwise, stepped to the stove,
and lit it. Then, without a quiver of an
eyelid, he produced a cigar, bit off the end,
and proceeded to light it from the burning
note.
That move saved the bank. The man
to whom at that mtement I was handing his
balance gasped, end then, shoving the
money back, said he would leave it. It was
-the turn of the tide, and the run matted.
We didn't even lose the £5 note, as the
manager was careful to see that there was
anough left to be redeemed."

No Excuse -for People Who Wear
Rusty or Faded Clothes
DIAMOND DYES
Will Make the Old Things Look
as Good as New.
-
If the majority of people cannot afford to
buy new dresses, jackets, capes, waists or
suits of clothes every three or six months,
the use of Diamond Dyes will enable them
to renew at trifling cost their faded or rusty
garments, making them as handsome as new
ones. Mrs. W. L. Woodward, of Cresswell,
Ont., says :
"1 have alwaya ueed Diamond Dyes with
the beat resulta, but my last trial of them
has exceeded all previeua efferte. I have
just dyed a di ess of the very finest brown
Henrietta Cloth wieh Diemond Dye Fast
Black for Wool, making it look as well . as
new goods from the 'gore. Teere is no
cx-
euse for anyone wearing o14 elothes while

Terrible Destruction of Property
in South Africa.
Professor Goldwin Smith, in the Farmers'
Sun, says: It is noticed by those who have
good opportunities -of gauging public 'senti-
ment that the feeling of our returned volun-
teers is less favorable to the war than is
that of the public which, has stayed at
home and has read only an Imperialist
press. An interview with a returned volun-
teer_on his way to his home in the North-
west is reported in the Lindsay Watchman -
Warden. He saps of the Boers that they
are a fine people, big-hearted fellows'with a
peculiar shrewd look, often educated and
intelligent. Their homes, he says, which
have been said to be dirty, are really clean,
while the women and children are neatly
r med. It is a pity, he thinks, that Eng-
land could not have co operated with those
people instead of making them her etemies.
For himself "he has all the war he wants."
At the same time he gives a description of
the destruction of the farms and the loot-
ing
"We had to Mage a good deal. As we
marched through the country we came to
plenty of farms with nobody about. The
women and children had fled ; the men
were et the front fighting. Then we took
any stock or other seppliee we found. In
many instances we turned the women and
children out and deatroyed the place. Wood
was scarce, and sometime* we chopped up
fine pianos that had cost $600 to $700, to
make a fire with. There was a good deal of
wanton destruction. I have seen fellows
chop into these beautiful instrumehts when
they were not needed for fire at all. It was
too bad."

Deadly La Grippe
Numbers its victims by thousands, leaves a
deadly trail of disease and weakness behind
it. You can avert all danger from the dead-
ly malady ; you can prevent the disease if
you will breathe Catarrhozone. The germ
cannot develop where it, is used ; that is pre-
vention. You can check and destroy its
ravages by Catarrhozone by simply breath-
ing it. That is cure. Price $1.00, by

The Price of Horses.
At the auction sale of horses at Grand's
repository in Toronto, het week, a nice
ooach or delivery horse, but fairly well up
in yeare, sold for $105. A brown mare for
delivery purposes, brought $98, Two fair-
ly good general purpose hams sold for $67
and $61 respectively. A- chestnut mare,
fair driver, brought $90, although the seller
thought she should have gone to $110 or
'3115. A chestnut geiding brought $67.50.
Some second -hands, but good, useful work-

was weaker, the extreme price of the week
reaching $225. There -was very liberal buy-

Our Insane. -
Mr. R. Christie, inspector of asylums in
Ontario, has just issued hie annual report.
It contains a lot of interesting information
concerning the unfortunate people who in-
habit these institutions. The report gives
the asylum population of the Province as
5,152, with an average daily number in resi-
dence of 5,137. Since 1871 the daily aver-
age population of both classes, idiots and
lunatics, has increased 384 per cent., and
that of lunatics alone -125 per cent. The
total number of lunaticis known to the de-
partment in 1891 was 2,639, and, in 1900,
4,929, an increase of 1,090 during the ten
years, or an annual average increase of 109.

Professor Giovanni Schiaparelli, direct-
orof the Brera observatory at Milan, has
been retired after 42 years of service. He
is celebrated for his discovery of the ca-
uals in Mars. His observations on. me-
teorites, on the double stars and on the
planets Mercury and Venus are of the
highest astronomical value.
William alcClary of Philadelphia has
given $50,000 to the Masonic home of
Pennsylvania_ in memory of his son,
Charles J. McClary. It is his desire that
$20,000 be used for.the general welfare

000 be used for establishing an orphan-
age for the children of members of the
order.
General Joe Wheeler writes in Success
that the czar's peace plan came to naught
"because it would be in the nature of
things impossible for man and nations to
abruptly cast aside a habit that was ac-
- quired before history began and is, after
all, an. instinct. All animals," 'continues
the general, "fight and will continue to, 1
think."
The Duke of Rutland, now -82 years
old, has been a member of six consecu-
tive British cabinets. He is the last sur-
viving member of Lord Derby's first ad-

£30,000 in horse racing and that with his
own limited experience he has seen about
30 wealthy men ruined on the turf.
THE NEW CENTURY.
The fin de siecle woman has stepped
forward and become the new century
woman.-Loulsville Commercial.
Have you caught on to the new game
yet? It is guessing what will happen to
the world in the new century. Anybody
can try it, and one glieSs is as good as
an oth e a -Brooklyn Standard -Union.
Each one of the New York newspapers
claims to have printed the "first paper
published in the new century." It is too
bad to have the century start off with a
misunderstanding like this. - Atlanta
Journal.
It would be a sensible thing at the be-
ginning a the 'new century to have our
timettieces mark 24 hours in a day instead
of doubling on themselves in two sets of
12. But it is too sensible for the begin-
ning of the twentiethcentury, though it
will come long before the beginnine of
the twenty-first.
BRAKES AND COUPLINGS.
Francis Rawle of Philadelphia has been
elected president of the Halifax and Yar-
mouth railway, to succeed 'Thomas Rob-

THE COOKBOOK,
Never add nuts to any cake you desire
to keep for any length of time. They
will mold and ruin it.
A cut lemon may be used instead of
vinegar to make tough meat tender. Rub
thoroughly_and let stand three or four
minutes before cooking.
Cheese crackers for the salad course

san or grated American cheese -thickly
over the crackers and bake in the oven
until the cheese is melted and beowned.

A AWNSROKER'S RULE.
To Him Fiddle Is a Fiddle, and He
Will Lo IS Not More Than Ipl. on It.
"On a v olin I will loan $1; no more,"
declared little old pawnbroker of the
local Lati quarter, replying to the ques-
tion of a casual curio hunter who was
looking ov r the strange medley of odds
and ends at littered the dusty counters.
"Yes?" s id the visitor politely. "But
you refer, I suppose, to the general run
of violins. When an 'instrument la of
real valu I, you make an exception, of
course." l'Of course I do not," retorted
the pawnbiro er sharply. "To me a
lin is Is a Tlio in, and $1. is what I lend.
Oh, to be u e, they protest -often some-
times the s ed tears. They assure me
it is old, r r , worth I don't know what.
'Very wel ,' I reply; `then take it to a
musician. e, I am a phwnbroker, and I
lend $1 o ddles, provided they are in
good order' I
"Nei I did not always have this rule,"
admitted ha old man, smiling grimly.
"I though . once that I knew something
about viol ne myself. Aly father was a
musician nd played for 20 years in tho
orchestra t the French Opera House.
I was br ught up, as you might say,
among fid les. But pshaw, let me tell
you what they did! One day a man
came here with a dirty old case under
his arm. He took me back in the pas-
sage to o eri it and sail, 'Sli-s-s, it is a
Strad!' %tTe1I, to tell eou the truth, it
was a very1 fine looking iastrument. I ex-
amined it carefully, and it had all the
marks. I was signed 'A. S.' As for
the man, • e eold the usu,a1 story -poverty
and so on hut he told it well. I was
more tha halt conyinaed, still 1 took
him to m friend Edgard°, who had a
repair sho on ?he next; corner and was
a known connoisseur. When Edgard°
saw the fi dle, his eyes stuck out. 'An-
tonio Stra i Ides!' he whispered in my
ear. I le him. into tb.0 hall. 'Are you
sure it is enuine?' I asked. 'I stake my
life,' said ae. Well, I lent the man $300
and proml ed. to keep the fiddle for him
six month . :
"In a ek or so another musician in
distress s • owed up -a friend of the first
man. He had a Maggini burnt amber
vanaish, s venteenth century. I took him
also to 1ldgardo, who was enchanted.
'You are i4 luck,' he said privately. 'There
Is a colony of these.fellows, just from Eu-
rope. The
11
are very poqr and have mag-
nificent fl dies. You will get them all.'
I lent $25 on the lUaggini. In a month
I had thr e more -a Guarnerius and tw'o
Gaglianos Altogether I advanced $575
on them. Then one day the orchestra
leader fro the French opera came into
the:shop. 1 He was a distinguished man
and wore hered rosette of the Legion in
his butt° s3hole. We got to talking about
violins, a d, to surprise him, I brought
out the S rad. I give you gny Ward that
I thoughi the man would never get
through Jt ughing. But / was already on
my way t Edgardols, and what do yos
think? 1.1 s shop was dosed, eleaned out
for rent! never saw him again noy the
fi-vc worth musicians. The fiddles L said
for $8 ap'eee. It .seems there is a facto -
ay in Bru sels where they make them_ bx
the gross. Since then I have establiah*.
my rule- violin is a Violin, and as col-
lateral it is worth $1, if in good repair.
1-Vhen the,y protest, I say: `Go to a cau,
