I was then a young man, teaching in a
newly settled part of Northern Ontario.
The farms in that
section were onlypartly
Y
cleared and most of them had what they
called a " sugar bush," that is a number of
maple trees from which sap is obtained for
making maple syrup and sugar.
It was the early part of the spring and
moat of the farmers were engaged in the
above .the
business. The process is
as follows : First, the trees are tapped by
rutting a notch in them and the sap which
lazes out is made to run into wooden
troughs, one of which is placed at the foot
of each tree, When the troughs are full
the sap, which tastes like sweet water, is
gathered in pails and poured into a large
iron kettle, suspended from poles. Under
this a fire is then -i ade. The sap must be
carefully watched, so that it will not boil
over. If syrup is wanted, the liquor is only
allowed to come to a certain thickness ; if
sugar is to be made, it is allowed to boil
down until it becomes quite thick. It is
strained when hot, to remove little pieces
of wend and other impurities.
Several of the farmers had had their
syrup stolen at night, as they had left it
unguarded. Mr. Norton, with whom I
was boarding, was far too cautious a man
to allow such a calamity to befall him. He
and his son had erected a temporary dwell-
ing in the woods. It was supported by
poles, like a tent, but instead of canvas
they used boards and branches, which they
covered with quilts. Here • some of the
family slept every night, watching by turns
and literally " keeping the pot boiling.'
I gladly accepted the oiler to accompany
.Joe and spend a night with him in sweet
•communion. It was after supper when we
left the house. We had to cross several
holds before entering the woods. The air
was mild and pleasant, the ground was
covered with the winter's snow, and as we
walked through the bush we inhaled the
fragrant breath of the pine trees. Although
it is many years since then, the smell of
pine always reminds me of those woods
and that night. We had to walk in Indian
file on the narrow path and Joe strode on
in front of me while bis brother brought up
the rear. A tall broad -shouldered young
fellow was Joe, with any amount of courage
and endurance. He was very sociable and
although not educated, possessed a fund of
practical common sense and originality
which always made his conversation inter-
esting Having dismissed his brother, we
threw ourselves down on the couches of
pine branches inside the tent and Joe en-
tertained me with many anecdotes of his
experience as a lumberman, going out every
now and then to replenish the fire.
We had arranged that he was to watch
the first part of the night and to call me
about 2 o'clock. As I said before, the sap
needed constant watering. to see that it did
not boil over. Joe went in and out and I
lay on my back gazing up at the sky
through a little rift in the tent. All sorts
of curious thoughts, occasioned by my novel
surroundings, ran through my mind. The
eters looked like curious eyes peering at me.
I imagined myself a soldier sleeping in bis
tent, and thought how many great generals
mast have fought their battles beforehand,
while lying sleepless at night.
I was just dropping off to sleep when I
was aroused by a strange noise which seem-
ed to come from some distance. " Joe," I
called, " what on earth is that?"
"It is a wild cat," he answered, coming
to the door and looking in.
" Are yon afraid ?" I asked.
" No, they seldom attack anyone unless
they are provoked. They have never
bothered us here in the, woods. The fire
frightens them off:"
I noticed, however, that Joe took his gun
out of the tent, loaded it and leaned it up
against the top of a tree.
I listened for a long time, butheard noth-
ing but the crackling of the fire, the lonely
" hoo hoc " of the owls and the distant bark-
ing of dogs. Presently I dozed off.
I had been asleep about two hours when
I was awakened -lay ateharp prolonged yell,
so loud, f tltmk it 'dried have been heard a
mile away. My Hear`t'beat violently ; I lay
motionless for abbut a minute and then got
up and ran to the door. The kettle was
swinging two and fro, spilling the boiling
sap from it on all sides. Joe stood there,
his face as pale as death.
" What was it Joe?" I asked breathlessly
looking fre4 Win to Ike -swaying kettle.
d'The wild c t "le'answered; and then
laughed as he added, " But I do int think

animal evidently thought that Joe intend-
ed to strike it. After remaining for a mo-
ment motionless it prepared to spring. - Joe
did not lose his presence of mind. He
knew that the wildcat would be upon him
before he could get his gun, which was on
the othersidetof the fire. He watched it
intently, and just as it sprang into the air
he stepped back and it fell into the kettle of
boiling sap. Giving vent to the yell which
1 have described, the animal leaped out and
da'shed madly away. We found its dead
bo ly in the woods the next day.
Of coursenoneof us cared to eat syrup

bath.
A DEED OF DARING.
the Gallantry of a Young English Of Meer
in Burmah.
= Few more gallant deeds have ever been
done than the march on Feb. 9, of which
Lieutenant G. F. MacMunn, R. A., an of-
ficer of three and a half years' service, send^
his father and mother an account, publisht
by +hem in the London Times. It is a real
pleasure to read his letter, simple as that of
'a boy, for it enables the reader to under-
stand how the English won, and why they
continue to hold, their position in Asia.
Mr. MacMunn had been ordered to march
with fourteen men, of whom, fortunately for
him, twelve were Goorkhas, to convey some
stores, principally rum, from Myitchina to
Sadon, a small fortified post in Burmah, a
distance of about fifty miles. The road was
considered -perfectly safe, and about twenty
five miles were passed in tranquility, when
the young lieutenant—and he cannot be
above twenty -two ---received information
which showed that some rebels of the Kach-
yen tribes intended to bar his path. This
meant that he must either retreat, or force
his way along a rough road, continually
crossed by streams, and lined with jungle
on each side, through
which might number hundreds, and did
number sixty at least, armed with muskets,
and sufficiently instructed in the military
art to build stockades both of timber and
stone. Lieutenant MacMunn, who had prob-
ably never beard a gun fired in anger in his
life, seems not to have doubted for a mo-
ment about his duty. The people in Sadon,
he thought, would want the stores, and he
pushed on, to find the enemy holding a ford
where the water was up to his shoulders.
He plunged in with three Goorkhas, and
forded the eighty yards of water, " getting
volleyed at awfully," but was left unwound-
ed, and rushed one side of the stockade,
and then, bringing over the rest of his men,
" rushed" the remaining works. The Kach-
yens fled, but four miles in advance towards
Sadon halted again, constructed another
stockade, and filled the jungle on each side
of the road with musketeers, who poured in,
as the Goorkhas advanced, a deadly fire.
The Jemadar was shot through the lungs, a
Goorkha hit in the foot, and Lieutenant
MacMunn wounded ounded in the wrist •but he

Trenton Courier.
At intervals during the past year the pro-.
prietor of the Courier has; been publishing
newspaper reports of miraculous. cures .,oc-
curring in various parts of Canadaand the
United States. Perhaps among the most
notable of these were the cases of Mr. John
Marshall, of Hamilton, Ont., Mr. C. B.
Northrop, of Detroit; Mich., and Mr. Chas.
A. Quant of Galway, N. Y., Mr. Marshall's
case was more prominently fixed in the pub-
lic mind by reason of the fact that after be-
ing pronounced incurable by a number of
eminent physicians he was paid the $1,000
disability claim allowed by the Royal
Templars of Temperance, and some
months afterward was announced his
almost miraculous restoration to health
and active- life. The case of Mr. North-
rop created equally as profound a sensa-
tion in Detroit, where he is one of
the best known merchants in the city. Mr.
Northrop was looked upon as a helpless in-
valid, and could only giive::the most desul-
tory attention to his business on days when
he could be wheeled to the store in an in-
valid's chair. In his case the same simple,
(yet wonderful) remedy that had cured Mr.
Marshall restored Mr. Northrop to a life of
active usefulness. The case of .1r. Chas.
Quant is perhaps the most marvellous of all,

less, but had had treament in one of New
York's best hospitals under such eminent

ed Mr. Marshall and Mr. Northrop was re-
sorted to, with the same :remarkable re-
sults, and to -day Mr. Quant, restored to
health, anticipates a long life of useful-
ness. The remedy which has succeeded,

Three years ago Miss Fleming's mother
-died of consumption. Up to four years
ago Miss Fleming stated that she had en-
joyed good health, but taking a severe
cold then she -had not had a well day since
until she began the use of Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills last December. She was reduced
in weight to 90 pounds, but now weighs 111
pounds ; a gain of 21 pounds. She con-
sulted a number of doctors and took their
remedies, but never obtained more than
temporary relief. A physician at Newmar-
ket whom she consulted said she was going
into a decline and that he could do nothing
for her. Her Trenton physician said that a
sudden cold would go to her lungs and he
had no hope of her ever getting better. She
felt very miserable, strength continually
-failing, suffered Eo much distress from food
that she had no desire for it and lost all
appetite. She kept 'continually growing
worse until last fall she was not able to
stand without support, andgave up all ef-
forts to help herself. In December she was
taken with inflammation of the bowels and
Dr. Moran was called in. , He' gave her
medicine that relieved her and cured the in--
fl.mmation, but her strength was gone
and she had to le lifted in and out of bed
and could not sit in a chair at all.
She had taken her bed expecting never
ci rise again, and this was the opinion of
all her friends. It was at this juncture
that her grand -father, having read in the
Courier of the wonderful cures effected by
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and as a last re-
sort a box,and
urged
his grand-
daughter
purchasedg gr
daughter to take them. Miss Fleming had
been before this recommended by a friend
in Toronto to try Pink Pills, but declared
she had no faith in them. Now, however,
to please her friends she consented to take
the Pink Pills ; on the seventh day after
beginning the use of the Pink Pills, she was
able to walk down stairs, and has not gone
hack to a sick bed since. The effect upon
her system was truly marvelous. Her ap-
petite was gone, strength gone, prostrate
upon her supposed death bed, in seven
days she was able to walk down stair's, feel-
ing renewed strength and a better appe ite
than ever before. kiss Fleming continued
the use of Pink Pills, daily gaining health
and strength, until she was able to take part
in the household duties without the least in-
jurious effect. Miss Fleming still contin-
ues to take one pill after each meal,
and now feels as well as she ever did
in her life. She feels truly greatful for
what this great remedy has done for her,
and -only a sense of gratitude enables her to
overcome her modest scruples in giving this
testimony to the; wonderful ;virtues of Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People.
Miss Fleming has recommended Pink
Pills to a number of lady friends who say
' they are doing them much good.
deep it was. It was quite dark, and took
us quite half an hour to get everyone across
and then the road was blocked with spikes
and trees, and the Kachyens fired con-
tinually. At last we got to Sadon village,
half a mile below the fort which our fellows
had made. In the village from every house
and corner they fired. My horse was shot
in the hind leg, the bullet going through
the muscle, and a driver was hit too. The
Goorkha ponies broke loose and galloped
about ; the mules went in every direction,
and the Goorkhas cursed and blazed away,
and still no sign from our friends, and I be-
gan to fear the fort had been taken. I put
the wounded driver on a pony, and we hur-
ried on, collecting what ponies and mules
we could. In ten minutes more we saw the
fort in the darkness ahead, and' started off
a ringing cheer, followed by my men ; bugles
rang out, and they cheered in reply, and in
another minute we were inside. I was

on all sides, patting me on the back, hold-
ing me up, giving me water, asking ques-
tions." That is to say, Lieutenant Mac -
Munn, a youngster, almost yesterday from
Woolwich, had led twelve Goorkhas on a
march down a jungle road of twenty-four
miles, hampered with mules and commissa-
riatstores ; had crossed two rivers by ford-
ing, and carried three stockades ; doing the
whole work under continuous fire from an
enemy far superior in numbers, far swifter
of foot, and, as far as constructing defences
went, almost as expert as sappers. No:
wonder that, after such a march, men in
the fort " held the Lieutenant up," or that
the Goorkhas, who knew what a man is
admitted that had their leader been hard
hit, they could never have got in. It was
a small thing, the march, done with a small
force for a small object but it was a genuine
feat of " derring-do " of the old heroic
kind with this result, among others, that
wherever that officer goes, or whatever
deed he tries to perform, if there are
Georkhas abort, though they cannot un-
derstand one word in ten he says, he will
have in them, who are as brave as he is,
comrades who will follow him, if it be
straight to inevitable death.
Howto Find Heaven- -
" You gave us an excellent sermon on
Heaven yesterday," said a -rich parishioner
to his minister as he met him on Monday
morning, " but you did not telt us where to
find it." " Well," replied the minister, " I
will tell you now. Down in that' alley
yonder is a poor but most excellent widow,
at times almost suffering for the necessaries
of life. Go down and see her, send her a
basket of provisions and aload of coal, and
let her see that you care for and sympathize
with her, and if you don't find Heaven you
will find something very like its spirit."
They parted—the rich man did as suggested.
And, when after some days, he and his
pastor again met, he thanked the latter
warmly for his suggestion, saying that " if
he didn't find Heaven, he found something
veru much like what he thought it might
be.
A further investigation revealed the fact
that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are not apatent
medicine in the sense in which that term is
usuallyunderstood, but are a scientific prep-
taration,succeesfully used in general practice
Jot.; many. years before being offered to the:
"public generally. They contain in a con-
densed form all the elements necessary to
give new life andrichness to the blood and
restore shattered nerves. They are an un-
failing: specific forsuch diseases as locomotor
ataxia; partial paralysis, St. Vitus dance,
sciatica, neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous
headache, the after effects of la grippe,
palpitation of the heart, pale and sallow
:complexions, and the tired feeling resul-
ting from nervous prostration ; all dis-
eases depending upon vitiated humors
it, the blood, such as scrofula,
chronic erysipelas, etc. They are also a
specific for troubles peculiar to females,
such as suppressions, irregularities and all
forms of weakness. They build up the
blood and restore the glow of health to
pale and sallow cheeks. In the case of men
they effect a radical cure in all cases arising
from mental worry over -work or excesses of
whatever nature.
These pills are manufactured by the Dr.
Williams' Medicine Company, Brockville,
Ontario and Schenectady, N. Y., and are
sold in boxes (never in loose form by the
dozen or hundred and the public are cau-
tioned against numerous imitations sold in
this share) at 50 cents a box or six boxes
for $2.50, and may be had of all druggists
or direct by mail front Dr. Williams' Medi-
cine Company from either address. The
price at which these pills are sold makes a
course of treatment comparatively inexpen-
sive as compared with other remedies or
medical treatment.
The Best Sunshine. -
All sunshine is delightful, but the best of
all kinds is sunshine in the home—the sun-
shine of a loving, •cheerful spirit. Better
even than the sunlight and warmth of
heaven is that of a cheery face, having, as
it does, a kind and cheerful heart. No one
understands it, or fails to feel its influence.:"
A bright eye, an unclouded brow, a sunny"
smile, a loving word, all tell of peace, joy
and delight in the pleasure of others. One
glance at such a face has lifted the mists
and shadows from many a heavy heart, and
scattered the fogs from many a burdened
spirit. A bright, warm, cheerful face inside
the houie will drive away sadnessss and gloom
and make ft impossible for them to exist.
The germs of disease, which at times may
lurk is the most elegantly furnished rooms
if kept dark, will vanish before the bright
and cheery sunlight. And so it is with
human beings as with rooms. Open, then,
the windows of your heart, and let the sun-
shine come in.
A BIG D.SAL.
$250,000 paidfor a Half Interest in the
Trade Mark of Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills for the United States.
The brilliant reputation achieved by Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills in Canada has not only
has led
1a
extended to the United td States,but
to an important business transaction. One
of the best known American proprietary
medicine houses, the head of which is the
president of a leading National Bank in
New York state, has recently purchased a
half interest in the trade mark of the Dr.
Williams' Medicine Co. for the United
States only, for which, we understand, the
consideration was $250,000. This sale is
probably the first instance in which an
American institution has purchased an in-
terest in a Canadian remedy, and offers the
very best proof of the sterling merits of Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills, as we may be sure
that the American capitalists, before ven-
turing so large a sum in the half interest of
the trade mark, fully investigated and
verified the claims made for the remedy.
It is a'' tribute, too, to Canadian medical
science, which has brought to perfection
this remarkable medicine.
Obeying the Rules.
Mr. Hayseed : " What's this extra charge
for ?"
Hotel Clerk : " We charge extra for gas
burned all night."
Mr. Hayseed : " Why, confound your
impudence, you've got a sign there plain as
kin be, ' Don't blow out the gas."
Cheap, Efficient, Prompt.
A marvel of cheapness, of efficacy, and
promptitude is contained in a bottle of that
famous remedy, Putnam's Painless Corn Ex-
tractor. It goes right to the root of the
trouble, there acts quickly but so painlessly
that nothing isknown of its operation until
the corn is shelled. Beware of substitutes
offered for Putnam's Painless Corn Extrac-
tor—safe, sure, and painless. Sold at
druggibts.

growing four inches in height, which bear
