"Ls anyone going for a stroll?" she inquired The Young Man thought he would like a stroll, the 'bridge table was /nada up without him, and ers• the hotel garden etretebed drown almost to the sea, the two young people found their way to dock -chairs overlooking the water.

I know of no countt7 in the world whieh is so dominated by its cap- . ital. If the traveller comes from the in- terior after leaving behind the splendors of Andean scenery and creasing tbe 500 miles of prairie, he feels, like a swimmer who has been a long thue under water and takee his first deep breath of civi- lization when he enters the city. I arrived at 6 o'cloelc in the moraing before the busy life of the harbor awoke. As we rolled along the broad water front and up the Avenida Mayo I mad to myself, "I must have taken the wrong steamer or I am dreaming. Surely I tun in Europe," It was, not thee things seems ed European or that it was ensy to de- tect tut imitation; it was Europe. No amount a edf-argurnent would overcome this illusion; the asphalt emelt na it does in Europe and wao cleaned 111 the European way; the little trees grew in the tradition of European culture, the buildings wore French, the cafes, the newsstands, all the lazy life of the early morning was continental and the Swiss porter touched his cep as he asked me In French--sfer which he expected a. tip —Whether monsieur wished. his baggage sent at once to his room.

Nature Needs Assistance in Making New Health -Giving Blood. Spring is the !season when your sys- tem ueas toning up. In the spring you must have new blood just, as the trees must have new sap. Nature demands it. Without new blood you will fed wea.k and languid; you may have twinges of rheu- matism or neuralgia, occasional head- aches, variable appetite, pimples or er- uaeions of the skin, or a pale pasty com- plexion. These are sure sign% that the blood. Is out of order. A tonic is need- ed. to give new energy. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are the best tonic in all the world. They make new, riclt blood.— your greatest need in spring. They clear the skin, drivo out disease and make tiled deproseed men and women bright, active and !strong. Aire. John McAuley, Douglastown, Que., proves the great value of Dr. Willman' Pink Pills in building up people who here been weak- oned and run down. She says: "Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills have been of great help to me. My blood was week and watery and I was badly run down. But through the use of the pills my health was fully restored. I always recommend them to my .friends who may be ailing." • There( are ;fraudulent imitatious of Dr. 'Williams' Pink Pills, and to prated yourself see that the full name "Dr. . Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People" is printed, on the wrapper around each box. Do not take any other so-called pink pills.

Ilote Natione Suit the Convenience of the Travelling Public. The whole German empire has a uni- form time, adopted April 1, 1$03, the 'central European titue, so called, which is exactly one hour faster than the time of the Greenwich meridian. The same teenaged is in use in Austria, Hungary, Italy, Switzerland, Deernark, Norway end Swede—that za in all the eoutitriee Which are traversed somewhere near their <entre from east to west by the fifteenth meridian east of Greenwich. The west European One is the time of the Greenwich meridian and is used in England, Holland, Belgium, Luxein- bourg and Spain. France, out of na- tional vanity, holds to the time of Paris both for bereelf and for her micelles in Algiere ned Turd% although this title is only tate minutes faster than Green- wieb, time. It is a peculiar eireunestanee that the French, who are veiled "behimi the thetepi" ha many. things, phr- slot so obetinately su. being a few min- utes Aimed, of the English on Go dock. The east European time is the same as the time of St. Petersberg, which ie is two hours, one minute and thirteen seconds faster than Greenwich time. Tit kitalaTare is wad in European Rua - ala, Turkey in Europe, Roumania and Bulgaria.. In Cape C'olony the railway !standard time is an hour and it half faster than Greenwiell thno, in Japan nine hours faster. Australia has four different standards —Emit Australia, eight hours faster than Greenwich; South Australia, pine Imre; ietorme Queenslana tuld Taemania, ten hours, creel New Zeeland, eleven and one- half hours, The division of the day into tweety- four hours (from one midnight to an- other) hen been officially rettiblishea in Italy. Belgium, Canada and British India. At present, however, only for use in railway mid telegrapher communieation. In the United States the railroad time is divided into four zones, called eastern, centre', inouatain end Pacific, which, reckoned from east to west, are male.' five, six, seven ana eight hours slower than Greenwich tbne. These standards have else been officially adopted in Gan- da, The necessity of adopting a uniform standard of time with which the local time of all plates may be compared had been felt for many years in the United States and became urgent with the in- crease of facilities for communication. The differenees of loeal time arise from the use of solar motioej as a time meas- urer. We eall the time noon when the sun is opposite the meridian of the plaee where we are living, and, as a conae• quenee of the sun's apparent motion from east to west the more easterly of two places will have the earlier time, the difference in hours being exactly one - fifteenth of the longitudinal difference in degrees. In other words, 15 degrees of longitude correspond to a time differ- ence of exactly one hour, as there are 360 degrees in the earth eircumference, which divided by twenty-four hours gives 15 degrees to an hour.—Jewelers' Circular Weekly.

COMPULSORY ARBITRATION AND WHAT IT LEADS TO IN NEW ZEAL (Montreal Gazette.) A greet deal of the Legislation aiming to make strikes impossible has been founded upon that of New Zea- land, or, as it has become generally known, "the land without strikes." Prophets tliere bay° been in plenty to point out that' the alleged succese at- tained for the policy of compulsory ar- bitration was illusory, since ell the operations ref the law in question had been uuder a rising labor market, ac- oompanied by increases in, values will& •made the raising of wages possible. It was granted that in times of ,prosperity manufacturers would be found willing to meet the demands of labor, or to accept compromises. But when these good times had passed ansi manufacturers would be unable to obtain good prices, would the workingmen consent to aceeot the ameessary reduction? Not even the most enthusiastic of the supporters of compulsory arbitration was eure on this point. The answer, and the one expected, ;has now been given. The New Zealand producer of mutton ean only obtain i tee ruling price on the British mar- ket. Tha.t means that he coal only afford to pay a certain price for his labor. Not long ago the men employed in one of the large freezing establish- ments demanded an increase of wages. Tho dainand went, cia usual, to arbi- tration. The employers were able to I show that in the existing condition of :the market it was impossible for them to pay aune, and the arbitrators ' agreed with them. The result was that the men went back to work. But instead of killing eight sheep per bour they only killed two, hopina thereby th defeat the award of the court and force the employers to give them the demanded wages. But it did not stop here. Men engaged in other freezing plants, recognizing the futility of seek- ing an increase from the arbitration eourt, have, in open disregard of the provisions of the act, left their work. ,In some instances fines have been im- f posed on the strikers, and the que.e- etion now confronting New Zealand is 'the pos.sibility of collecting these fines. A man cannot very well pay a fine without money, and to send lum to jail Is not helping either his family or the entployer whot labor.

The primary knowledge of the tribes who were the piouere and of every human being wive has since made his home in the great American desert, was complete as to the location, distri- bution and idiesynerasiee of the water supply.
