The Joy oi Travel.
(By a Banker.) -
Under ordinary conditions, to the
average individual there is 4 pleasure
and a glad tascitation in travelling,
whether it be by sea or by land, Of
course, however, in the ioniser case
U must be assumed that the incon-
etant deep fs not in too angry a mood,
in which eitee, whether the traveller
experience physical discomfort, from
the rolling of the billows, or oththwise,
no amount of sophistry could coo-
vince that the violent plunging, and
the spasmodic lurching and reeling of
the good ship, add to the pleasure
of the voyage.
And, too, it occasionaly happens
that travelling on and is the reverea
of pleases -elite. For instance, when,
after a sudden thaw, the cossnowolitate
erowds, who, from almost every coun-
try in Europe, from America. and
even from Australasia, flock .to the
numerous hotels perched high on the
Swiss mountains for the enjoyment of
liming, bob -sleighing, skating, ski-
joring, curling and other alnusements
upon the ice or snow, hurry away
from sludge and deep slush of the
melting snow. At such times the
through night trains are besieged by
a surging mob, all struggling to secure
a seat; some, espeeially the foreigners,
in order to save the charge of luggage,
bringing into the carriage numerous
portmanteaux and enormous rolls of
rugs, with which they encumber and
block up, the gangway, and, until dis-
possessed by the guard, fill up the
seat& At length every seat is occepied,
and gill they come, the latest arrivals
having to content themselves with a
mat on the floor of the corridor, many,
aa the night advances, .rolling them-
selves in their rugs and lying at full
length in the vainthope of forgetting,
in the oblivion of sleep, the discom-
forts of the journey. But these un-
happy one soon realize that their
restingjitce is not exactly the lap of
Inner mid, if they are wise, alight
at t ie first opportunity and stay the
remainder of the night at an hotel.
At length the train arrives at, Bee-
like a battlefield; for the floor of the
journey are not ended. •Por a great
storm is raging, the sea is exception-
ally rough, and a bad passage may
be presaged. And soon the 'vessel is
like a battlefield; for the floor of the
saloons, and even of the corridors, is
strewn with rnen and women lying
prone at full length in all directions,
many groaning as if a bullet had pass-
ed through them, and many -but a
veil must, perforce, be drawn over the
melancholy spectacle Of the piteous
woes of poor suffering humanity. tut
at last they are moored in the still
waters of harbor, and with pale faces
and limp gait those stricken victims
of the rolling deep once more step
upon terra firma.
And, although we read that man LI
born to trouble as the sparks fly up -
Wards, and although some have a
heavier share of adversity than others,
yet, surely, those of whom the Great
Hereafter has no terrors, and who,
having accepted the Saviour of the
world who by dying on the cross
atoned for their sins, as their Re-
deemer, must have the happier ex-
istence here below. For for them a
glorious future is assured with anises

be adopted if swooning hes occurred.

THE REMINDERS
OF RHEUMATISM
ere
Cold, Wet Weather Starts the Pains,
But the Trouble is in the
Blood.
Cold, damp Weather brings on the
twinges and pains of rheumatiem, but
is not the real cause of the complaint,
The trouble is rooted in the blood and
can only be cured by enriching the blood
and driving the poisonoue sold out of
the system. This is a .great medical
truth, winch every rheumatic sufferer
should realize. Liniments and outward
applications can't cttre the trouble -
they can't reach the blood. The suffer.
er is only wasting valuable time Ana
good money in experimenting with We
sort of treatment -and all the time the
trouble is becoming more firmly rooted
-harder to cure. There is just one
_sure way to cure rheumatism -Dr. Win
num' Pink Pills. They act directly- on
the impure, weak blood. They purify
and strengthen it, and so root out the
eatio of riteuntatisin,
Mrs. S. Bailey, Newcastle Creek, eit B.
says: "In the simmer of 1906 I berme

SPINSTER'S HATRED OF MEN,
She Even Refused Stamps and Coins
That Bore King's Head,
Miss Harriet Evans, an elderly
spinster on whom an inquest was held
ot Hackney, England, was said to
Imve been a confirmed, man-hater.
"She was so =eh against men
that she would not have a eoin with
the King's head on it," nor landlady
said, "If one was given to her she
would throw it into the fire. She
would only deal in money bearing
Queen Victoria's head,"
Miss Evans went to the office of a
local newspaper some time ago, but
refused to enter it until a woman was
sent to transact business with her.
An advertisement for apartments
which she published stipnlated that
there sb,ould be no man in the house.
She even declined to receive letters,
says the Pall Mali Gazette, because
the. stamps bore the King's head.
