It was her. last trip Ito Duluth this season and the return ,trip was due bo commence at 4 p.m. I expected a party to be aboard, whom 1 wished' tb see. I was kindly given permission by, one of the of- ficials to go all through the boat. I visited all three of the passenger decks from end to end but without success. I waw. that •everything was splendidly and magnificently equip- ped, and that those travelling were in a floating palace, apparently with all the cgmforts that could be asked for, and courtesy and.civiltty seemed hi evidence everywhere. When re- turning up town and when on. the viaduct above the railroad tracks I was caught in a terrific short-lived gale estimated at forty-five to fifty miles perhour with the rain driven in blinding sheets. It was folly to open an umbrella. For a time it was all I could do to make any headway and what 'little reserve strength I had was nearly exhausted. The Noronic's departure, I understand, was tempor- arily delayed as the captain would not give orders to start out in the teeth of the terrific gale. Some 20 years ago I would not have minded much this gale and rain, but all is different now. Old "Father Time" is relentless. Be' Forehanded with a %\th17IC1 C1 6 l � i Pipe or One -Register (PIPELESS) The best time of the year to instal a fur- nace is when it is not needed to work. Don't leave the installation of your new furnace till the cold weather is on you. Every furnace man is busy when the first cold snap comes, and sometimes delays with discomfort and annoyance are en- tailed. You can be forehanded by seeing the McClary's dealer right away. Have him look over your house. He will tell you whether a Sunshine, Pipe or One -Register .(pipeless) will be suitable for your house— he will know the size required and the pro- per location in which to place it. That service costs you nothing. It is part of the McClary's system of making and sell- ing Sunshine Furnaces. By that system McClary's guarantee every Sunshine Fur- nace, which they instal to warm your house —every room—satisfactorily. Write for booklet, or call on the nearest McClary's dealer' McC1atys Speaking of forest fires, they nave at times set fire to low, boggy ground which in some instances have smoul- dered all winter in territory adjacent to this city and also Swperior, Wis. If we believe in muskrat action, a s are due for an early, cold and long winter. During the hottest weather they were busy erecting strong and large homes by nearby streams and maishes. Often the instinct of birds and animals put to rout man's reas- oning powers. The Great Creator designed it' thus. Hurd coal is very high and costs $16.00 per ton and more when de- livered according to location, and wood is no cheap article either; so the coal and wood barons will smile when Jack Frost takes a hand in the game. According to what the farm- er, the honest producer, receives for his grain, hogs, cattle, wool and other articles, the bye products of these, generally speaking, cost the consum- er a sum too high, plainly showing profiteering wretches are yet in the saddle. It is too bad many of these middlemen, with their profits, could not be eliminated. The ultimate con- sumer pays all. Sugar is about the most sensible article on the list. By the pound it can be bought for 7 cents and by the hundredweight n half cent per and less. about a P Po It is claimed that 5,735,000 are out of employment in this country and 7,000 in this clay, but I think •the latter number is far too high. But many here will have to be provided for this winter with food, fuel, shel- ter and clothes. These facts may as well be looked straight in the face. As yet, Duluth's Cenurious (tent Hogs show no disposition to keep their avaricous snouts out of the public's pocketbooks or take a trip down the toboggan slide of declining prices. The common lumber jack will be paid $26 per month and board, and those more skilled from $30 to $35 in the woods this winter. This is a drastic out from $65 to $80, respectively, as paid last year. For the first time women are serv- ing for grand and petit jurors here and seem to get along all right and mere man serves along with them. The Street Railway Company here were allowed permission h•; the Min- nesote Railroad and Wareaeuse Com, leis: ion to collect, com�m'eseing Sep- tember 1st, a six -cent street car fare; previously they were getting five cents, but in the .,maritime Duluth's city- attorney has managed to secure a restraining• order allowed by three judges. So at midnight, September iiith, the 5 -cent i..: -c returned and the situation will now be "hreshed cut in the Courts. By the voters of this city,in June and September,. 1920, the company's request for a 6 -cent fare was twice turned down. Then by some high-handed wdrk it was brought before the Minnesota Legi- slature and an emergency rate of 7 -cent fare was asked, and they in return gave permission to the Min- nesota warehouse and Railroad Com- mission the authority to decide, thus arbitarily taking the decision to do so out of the voter's' hands. With so many out of employment and declin- ing wages, this is no time to ask for higher Bares. It is the working clas- ses and those of moderate means who pay the largest percentage of fares, not those with their autos, limosenes and flivers. So I hope the. company will net be allowed any increase. A terrible tragedy occured recently at Hibbing, Minn., when Jack Webb. trapper, law violator, bad man and dead shot and a widower living in a shack near by with his children, in- stantly shot to death Hibbing's Chief of Police and two other officers who went to serve a warrant upon him, the charge against him being sworn to by a son and young daughter. After the shooting he fled. Armed posses searched the woods for several days. bloodhounds were brought into requisition, but could not follow the scent. A posse of five heavily armed police at last by his tracks located him in a lonely cabin. As they neared a shot rang out and as they rushed in they found the desperado had taken his own life with the game rifle as he had killed the officer, part of his head being blown off.

This cabin was about three and a quarter miles from Hib- bing, and the latter is not so very far from Duluth.

Within the ,cauldron the -i exeavatore ,found the resales oi: sons,e of thliquid used. But the most delightfully modern human touches' about the Pompeian bar were the election manifestoes whish adorned its walls. One of the candiddtes who made fervent ap- peals for votes was one, Lolling, who eloquently reminded the public that he was a duumvir, who, looked after the streets and sacred build- ings. ;Lollies' policy was doubt- less Good Roads, Public Works and A Full Dinner Pail, and one sant easlly imagine the • grave and reverend seignors,, and the young bloods of Pompeii dropping' into the thermopolium• for a modest quencher and incidentally making caustic comments as to the condition of the roads and their chariot wheels and speculating as to how much Lol- lius was making out of the highways and temples.

These photos for those living would be melancholy re- minders Auld "Days Lang the I minders of YS Syne," and would be interesting for future generations. The memory of yon "Old Pine Tree is by me the most revered of all old Huron's an- cient trees. ROBERT McNAUGHTON. Duluth, September 16, 1921. NOTHING IS NEW BENEATH THE, SUN. 'Puree -score years after the birth of Christ the busy and beautiful lit- tle city of Pompeii, overlooking the Bay of Naples, with its 20,000 inhab- itants, was dramatically blotted out of existence by an eruption of the long -dormant Vesuvius, and for 17 centuries lay unknobrn beneath is thick shroud of volcanic refuse. A- bout the middle of the 18th century the grave of the dead city was acci- dentally discovered, and subsequent excavations have slowly revealed the rare treasures of a departed civiliza- tion. New excavations were begun in 1911, but with the Great War of 1914, the world 'had something more important to think about than Pompeii. Nevertheless, the anti- quarians continued quietly digging and discovering fresh wonders. A THE MISERY OF BACKACHE Removed by: Lydia E. Pink - ham's Vegetable Compound. Meaford, Ont.— took Lydia E.
