When a storm cornea OR there is a ruah of cold air upward which catches falling raindrops and bears them` heavenward, Then the drops pass through a cold cloud and get congealed ; they become heavy and fall back into the rain cloud, where a coat of water ad- heres to them. Caught up again they are carried into the snow and take on another jacket, and so the process goes on until a large-sized hailstone is formed, which, with its companions, es- capes from the current of air and comes tumbling down to the ground. If a hailstone is cut in two the layers of ice and snow may be seen with the naked eye. The small ordinary hailstone sometimes starts as a raindrop, but achieves its new dignity be- fore it reaches the ground. Hail- stones are most frequent when the temperature conditions are most uneven., WHAT IS IT? To those whohad never used Wilson's Wild Cherry, we beg to explain that it is a preparation for the cure of Conghs, Colds, Croup, Bronchitis Whooping Lose of Voice, . and kindred diseases, which has been in successful use for twenty years. It is purely vegetable medicine in the form of syrup, pleasant to the taste, and gives immediate re. lief to sufferers from diseases of the Throat. Chest and Lungs.

MEMO 00 AN FARMER. • 0;143010N-WM =TVA an Perhaps there never was a inmoneywho loved money more than d Farmer Grind. He drew a ! deep -breath Digi' and slot()against a slanting sunbeam whi came into the barn through crack in the big door where was at work. It was just as w to preserve it, for sighs were n so bright and fresh with him they used to be in days befo had the asthma, so be thong it best to lay it by for future us in faet, Farmer Grind laid eve thing by for future use that h could. It was really sad to see th white headed old man, th weather beaten, green old stum of the forest, bowed down wit grief, and the pitiful tears cam into his eyes and trickled dow to the end of his nose, from whlc he everjand anon wiped them.wit the back of bis gnarledand tawn hand. "You seem under the infiuenc of a heavy sorrow, Brother," r markea the young parson, wh entered unperceived, and scute himself on an upturned horse buo ket, while the farmer was stuffin another bunch of straw into th cutter. Tho farmer looked up with weary smile of recognition an replied after he had changed hi quid to the other cheek : "Yes, brother, the hand of mis fortune has rested heavily upo me. I try to bear it like a Chris tian, but its mighty hard, pa'son and it goes powerful agin th grain to be resigned." "I hope so, my afficted brother and trust that I may offer the con olation of religion," said the par on sympathetically ; "but i what way have you been be eaved 2 I hope your wife--" "Oh,. Betsy, she's all right,' nterrupted the farmer. "And the children --1 have no eard that you have lost any o he children ?" an6n d the par rew more animated in his inter- st. "Not as I , know of," said the farmer, "not a blamed kid ; the Bilden are doing well enough." "Where, then, has the blow fallen, brother? At what sacred lace in the family circle has the read shaft of the Death angel oen turned to bring sadness in o a once happy home ? The ind, I trust, will be tempered to he shorn lamb." "Tho family circle is all serene, a'son, but as for misfortune, I hould rather I've had my share nae I saw you. You know that It—that or'naro plug that uster un in the calf -lot thar? Well, r, last spring I—I--•" At this point the old man com- letely broke down, sobbed audi- ly and grittee his teeth. "I sold im to Gabe Cummings for $30 nd an old hair bridle, "Seems 'to me that was a fair rice," said the parson. "Seemed to me at the time that t war, but this is a weary- world, a'son,'and we/never know what rials is in store fur us. I know a'son, you'll pardon my emotion ben I tell you the news that I my heard this morning. What e you think. but that tbar dod- amed fool colt, that I sold for 30 and an old hair bridle, made mile last Monday in 2.20, and at Silverton Maid on a $500 et, and Gabe Cummings raked all that wealth. Thero is not uch temperin' of the shorn lamb to the wind in that. I'm the worst shorn lamb you ever see, poison, and it seems to me this is a mighty cold day fur lambs."— Texas siftings. Our Equal Rights friends will perhaps be surprised to learn that the Dominion Government is sup- porting Separate Schools among the Indians. It came out in de- bate last week, and Mr Dewdney had to confess that such was the case. Ho stated that thelnumber of Indian schools in the Domin- ion and the assistance given were as follows : Church of England, 27 schools, $32,657; Presbyterian id o n up 0 a be ell ot as ore ht e, ly_ e is is h e n h h y e e- 0 g e a d s n e n t f 8 s r i h t g e c b t w t p 8 si CO 81 p b h a p p t p w O d bd a be b in When a til,tin gete sick or meets with °an ac'aident in at tiunadian lumbrea..xupe he neither expectsnor receives anything like good Hurt, ing. If he is patient, the anon will do what they can ; but it' he shows a disposition to whine, he is not considered worth any extra trouble. At Camp'B'two or three winters ago a man named Peters was hurt by a falling tree—badly Burt. The camp was forty miles from a town or doctor, the snow three feet deep, and all they could do was to rub the man witb whis- key and put him in his 'bunk. While no bones were broken, it seemed certain that he:was intern- ally injured, and that he could not live beyond a day or two. Busi- ness was driving, and there were no men to spare and after Peters had been rubbed down the boss said : 'Now, Peters, you understand how it is ; you'll probably die: 'Yes.' 'Probably die witbio twenty- four hours.' 'Yet?." 'And so, you see, anything ex- tra will be dead loss to me.' 'I see, but in case I die you'll bave manners enough to knock the men off half a day, won't you ? I also want a good square grave.' 'But Peters, we are rushed, and to do that will cost me $50 worth of time,' 'How much will you give me to diel' 'I'll say $35—that is, if you'll forego a funeral if you do die.' 'That looks fair,' said Peters af- ter a little thought, 'and I'll do it.' Shake.' They shook; and Peters set his teeth hard and determined to live. His only medicines were kerosene oil, whiskey, and vinegar, and his only delicacies fat pork and bean soup; but in three weeks he was out and at work. 'Couldn't you make it $30?'ask- ed the boss as he came to settle. For why I' 'Because if you had died I should have had to wrap the body in a $3 blanket, and the boys would have insisted on a drink all around after the job.' 'Couldn't possibly think of it,' replied Peters. 'After I made the bargain with 'you I found three broken ribs, and I had to splice and grow 'em extra.'

WOOLr3ALIt AOANTt EVANS AND SONS, LIMITED, MONTREAL, Toronto Board of Aldermen have re- fused to petition the Ontario Legisla- ture toive the franchise to married women, but all women, including wid- ows, will be placed on the same footing as men •in municipal elections. This is just provision. The average married woman is contented to be a helpmeet to her husband, end would not thank the Legislature for the same municipal rights as bar husband, who, in the large majority of cases, is quite competent to look after her interests, and does look after them. Bit the provisions placed on the statute book by the Mowat Gov- ernment, conceding the right of un; married female property -owners to have a voice in the municipal laws by which they are governed, are eminently just, and cannot bo fairly objected to by anyone. C. C. RICI8ARDR cit CO. Gents.— My horse was so afflicted with distemper that he could not drink for four days and refused ail food. Simply applying MINARD'S LINI- MENT outwardly cured him. Feb. CAP. RanDERT CANN 0, C. RronAnna & Co. Commenting on the proposed change in the tariffthe Globe very truly remarks. Minard's Liniment for saleev erywhere One of the objections which has been urged against oommercial union and unrestricted reoiprooity between this country and the United States is that such a movement would discriminate against Great Britain and be, in faot, an act of disloyalty towarde her. This argument, of course, is used by those who distinguish themselves by yelling for the flag while they clap on protec- tive duties to keep British goods out of the country. Sir Charles Dilke, one of the ablest and most unfortunate of Eng- land's statesmen, however, in his new book on "Problems of Great Britain," expresses the opinion that the British Government would not object to a com- plete commercial union between Canada and the United States. Such a union, while promoting trade between the United States and this oonntry, would not materially alter the existing com- mercial relations between Canada and Britain. Under the present tariff laws Canada imports from Great Britain are subject to duty, the same as imports from other countries. There would be no important change in this relation under unrestricted reciprocity or com- mercial anion between the States and Canada. and accordingly, Sir Charles concludes Great Britainicould have no serious ground of objection to it.
