J. F. Setterington of Vancouver, B.
0., was a member of the battery sta-
tioned at Kingston some 25 years ago.
He left that city and went sailing. He
was shipwrecked on Lake Superior, ref -
cued and oared for by Indians, and a
year later word renohed him that bis
young wife and her newly -born child
had died, After many adventures he
settled down. Now be has heard his
baby lived and is Mrs. Chas. Herbert of
Kingston.
A story is told of a pompous Member
of Parliament, who attended an agricul-
tural show some time ago. He arrived
late, and found himself on the outside of
a huge crowd. Being anxious to obtain
a good view for himself, and a lady who
a000mpanied him, and presuming that
be was well known to the spectators, he
tapped a burly coal -porter on'the shoul-
der, and peremptorily demanded, 'Make
way there' "Gare, who are ye puehin'?"
was the unexpected response. "Do you
know who I am, sir?" exclaimed the in-
dignant M. P., "I am a representative
of the llrftish people." "Yah," growled
the porter, unmoved, "but we're the
British people themselves."
QUAKER TURNED PAINTED.,
Lead Who Hae Become One of Ameri,
oa's Greatest Artists,,
The magnificent mural paintings of
C. Y. Turner are among America's art
treasures. How near this famous art-
ist carne to being forbidden an artistic
career because his Quaker parents ob-
jected on religious grounds is told in
the New Broadway Magazine, When
it came time for the shall sou to take
his place among the wage earners of
the family --and that time came early -
he communicated to his father his in-
tention of being an artist. As has hap-
pened so often, the father objected.
Not only did It seem to him Trost un -
,practicable from a` monetary stand-
point,'but also contrary to the Quaker
doctrines. In a family where brass
handles on furniture were removed be-
cause they were considered frivolous
and were replaced by knobs of dark
,walnut this was not a matter of small
importance. Moreover, the father had
Intended that the boy should be a phar-
macist.
A, compromise was at last reached.
The painting of pictures was out of
the question, but architecture recom-
mended itself to the Quaker mind as
serving a utilitarian purpose. At the
same time, with the possibility of mak-
ing infinite charts and drawings, it ap-
proached closely enough to the picto-
rial to satisfy the young Charles.
Three years of apprenticeship to an
architect followed. Then, having come
to the realization that the construction,
or buildings and the painting of pic-
tures are decidedly different phases of
art, the boy took a position with a pho-
tographer-and
ho-
tographer'and eventually accompanied
him to New York.
From the tinting of photographs, a
phase of work at that time immensely
popular, he drifted into pastel work
and water colors, finally taking up oil
portraiture. His success overcame
even the Quaker principles and digni-
fied the work as a profession in the
eyes of his father.

Near Amsterdam a traveler -who
does not know a word of Dutch -per-
ceiving the announcement "English
spoken," entered a shop. "English,
sir?" asked a youth behind the counter.
Then he picked up a cylinder, placed it
in a gramophone, and the instrument
duly sung out -but in German: "Sir
(or Madam), the proprietor, who speaks
German, will be telephoned for and
will return to the establishment in less
than five minutes. Will ybu please be
seated?" The tourist, who knows Ger-
man, seated himself. In came the prin-
cipal, who speaks excellent English.
The stranger asked why the gramo-
phone did not talk English. The ex-
planation was: "It's my stupid assist-
ant! I have a cylinder on which is
recorded the message in English; he
used the wrong one. Tilers is no ex-
cuse for hien; my English cylinder is
tinted red at the; ends, and the German
one blue. Lucky for me, sir, that you
know German, else I might have lost

The Cecelian Waltz.
`Trona the English descriptions of the
Cecelian waltz we judge," says a writ-
er in a Berlin paper, "that there will
be a sixteen step prelude to the regu-
lar waltz, that this introduction will
have some of the old time minuet fea-
tures and that when the waltz proper
begins it will be something like the
dance which was in vogue when we
who are now middle aged. and a little
more were dancers. The fast and furl -
bus waltz which came from the country
where everything Is rush is beloved by
the young people only because they do
not know the dance of their parents.
it was this, the graceful, slow and
dreamy, that made the dance a soulful
pleasure. It was this real poetry of
motion that inspired fanner, Gang].
and Strauss. Welcome, new waltz, if
you are like the old!"

ADVISORY COUNCIL. FOR INDIA.
important Change of System An-
nounced by Government.
An important change in the system
of governing India, was announced
recently when it was stated that the
Government will establish an Im-
perial Advisory Council and several
local Advisory Councils in that col -
any.
These latter will be partly nominee
tive and partly elective. Two elected
members will be chosen from a spe-
oia] Mohammedan electorate of the
elass paying an income tax, having
an income of $330 a year, or pay a
land revenue above a fixed amount.
It will include also all graduates from
Indian universities of more than five
years' standing.
This is the first time that an elective
element has been introduced, and the
proposals are subject to the "essen-
tial condition" that the British Gov-
ernment be left with undiminished
Power.
Women as Aldermen.
Front England comes the following
little comment anent the recent bill to
admit women to sit as aldermen and
councillors:
The bill to enable women to sit as
aldermen and councillors on county
arid borough couneils has revived all
the usual arguments for and against
women serving on public bodies. It
is regarded as likely to promote the
suffragist movement, and some even
see in it the paving of the way to
women sitting in parliament and upon
the bench at assizes. It does not
seem likely that the bill will be pass-
ed this session, in spite of the Gov-
ernment's intentions to this effect.;
but if it does it is not likely to lead
to any of these results. Women are,
already elegible for election on boards
of _guardians, parish couacila, ands
geiitlol boards, and if the ratepayer*
do not want women ou the Iargez'
councils they would have simply to.
say so at the polling booths. In telt
probability it would be found OM
women are more disposed to be care-
ful of the ratepayere' interests than
men, In any case there is nothing
very convincing in all the objections
urged against their serving upon ler
,Fal publio bodies, which, in rr*an7
cases, are not so perfect as to be

Breathe Hygmei's Tonle Healing
and be Cured of Catarrh.
Nature has a remedy for catarrh, a
treatment that is far better than dosing
the stomach with medicine.
It is the healing oile and balsams of
Flyonai which medicates the air you
breathe, reaching the most remote air
cells in the nose, throat and lungs, kill.
ing all catarrhal germs, and restoring
health to the mucous membrane.
In using Hyomei yon are treating your
catarrhal troubles with the only natural
remedy, for it gives a curative air bath
to the air passages that has as powerful
healing and autiseptio effect as that
round in the mountains where the pine
forests give off their fragrant and heal.
ing balsams.
Breathe the invigorating and healing
Hyomei, and see how quickly you will
net relief from your oatarrhalotroubles.
Waltn MicKlbbon has seen so many
cures, even of the worst oases of catarrh,
with offensive breath, raising mucus,
frequent sneezing, droppings in the
throat and spasmodic coughing, that he
feels warranted in selling Hyomei under
an absolute guarantee to refund the
money if it noes not do all that ie claim-
ed for it. He takes all the risk.
One by one the old pioneers of Kinloss
township are passing to their test. The
I .st to pass away was Mr. Wm. McLen-
nan of lot 22, eon, 8. who died Sunday,
20th inst., as the reanit of a paralytic
stroke Mr. McLennan, who was in bis
80th year, was a good neighbor, sincere
friend and respected by all who knew
him. Ie reigion he was a Presbyterian
and has for many years been an elder in
the Langside church, and hia pastor,
Rev. G. P. Duman, of Whitechurch,
conducted the funeral servioes. The
funeral took place on Tuesday, 22nd
inst., to Teeswater cemetery and was
atteneded by a large number of friends
aid neighbors showing the respect in
which deceased was held in the com-
munity.
Appetite and Longevity.
A. great appetite has been generally
regarded as a sign of fine health, but
of recent years, since the experiments
of Iterate Fletcher, Professor Chilton,
der, Dr. Wylie, Dr. Kellogg and oth-
ers, ophtions have much changed in
this particular. It is the man who
eats little who is healthiest and whose
prospect of a long life is best. The
voracious appetite of many persons is
from habit, not necessity, and the ex-
periences of the Trappists show that
the cravings of nature may be fully
satisfied with little food.
