Of course you've been there.

When no one rebuked your hilarious ways,
And your lamp burned all night oa your board-

Then hl; mother is sure the poor darling is

And instals that you go for some medicine
quick,
And you beep on a tack in your hurry and

Of course course you've been there.
Then just as you're quietly falling asleep—
Of courae you've been there—
You hear a low voico that makes your flesh
creep—
Of course you've been there—
"I hear some one move in she basement
below,
There's burglars got into the kitohen. I know."
You rise in the dark and fall over a chair—
Of course you've been there.
And tbat is the way of the world and of life—
Of course you've been there—
It's full o t delusions, vexations and strife—
Of course you've been there.
But still there's a proper proportion of fuu,
And wo each get oar share, when all's said and
done,
And there always is sunshine and music some-

Of course you've been there.

Early en Friday morning women began
to gather at the old Bank of British Colum-
bia building. The policeman on that beat
says that the golden aurora had nob climbed
over the tips of the neonutaine before some
ef them were on hand. Thera were tall
women and short women, fat women and
lean women, red-headed women and women
on whose hair charcoal would make a
Monde mark. There were old women and
young waren, middle-aged women and
women of uncertain age. There ware Cana-
dian women and Irish women, French
women and United Soateaiens, Eogtiah
women and Dutch women, and a couple of
Swedes. They all had bhe same idea–to
get near the door.
When Mr. Johnsen reached the office in
the morning he was atraok dumb. The tre-
mendous array of femininity took Ms breath
away. He sneaked back into the lane expect-
ing to get in by bhe bank door, but one of the
Irish ladies was toe quick for him. She
had him cornered betore he could get in
and went for him after Chia etyle ; " Now,
acooahla, it's lucky for ye that I beard ye
wanted a housekeeper. It's meaetf that

Mae young man ye are, and wouldn't

that he would consider her application and
refer ib to his wife.
After bhe clerk had opened the front
doors a sbream of females kept pouring in

one who loves the

laud/with all its varied

The magnificent complimentary banquet
at the Grand Pacific Hotel Friday night,
TENDERED W. d. BUCIIANAN,
the World's Fair chief, by the exhibitors
and commissioners off the different depart-
ments he controls–agriculture, forestry and
live stock–Is another evidence of the honor
that Is being heaped upon the most honora-
ble of the profes:;ione–farming. The head
of the agricultural part of the exposition
has been tha first dignitary of bhe expoet-
tion company so honored by the men from
foreign countries, who in their capacity es
exhibitore or members of commieetons have
had busineaa with the exposition authori-
ties. The conelueion inevitably arrived at
by a careful observer and enquirer is that at
least in so for as agriculture is concerned a
man of ex'raordtnary ability and iodeance
must have been at the head of affairs.
There is no question that to Chief Buchanan
is largely duo the credit of the wonderful
success bhab has been attained.
Ib is well to remember that the
LAURELS ALREADY WON BY CANADIANS
in the cheese contest have been obtained in
the dairy depart meat under bhe supervision
of this whole flouted gentleman, and that
the victories Onteriana expect to come bo
them in the live stock show and final dairy
tests in September and October will be
gained because Chief Buchanan is, above all
else, bound to eel a fair field and no favor
as between competitors. This notable
banquet was the play -day after the months
of hard work which have made these de-
partments at the Fair of so muck interest to
the visitor from all lands. Mirth and
revelry, wit and wisdom, the scholar, tho
inventor and the farmer hold away in the
big ivory and gold dining -room. The guests,
to the number of over 200, assembled in the
ontresol and parlors of the hotel and passed
the time in social chat until 8 30 o'elook.
Ab that time the algnal was given by Chair-
man Henry W. Pearson, British Superin-
tendent of Agriculture, the great dining•
room doors ewung open, the mandolin
orchestra struck up, the guests marched in,
arm in arm, and
THE BANQUET WAS ON.
This is what each guest saw as he took
his allotted place : Great tables extending
down the long room and forming the letter
" M." On the centre of the head bable
was a large mound of smilax and ferns,
studded with sweet peas and La France
roees, and concealing a loving cap, after-
wards presented to Chief Buchanan.
Tables trimmed with ferns and sweet peas
were draped with festoons of smilax.
Carnations were ab each earner, and, grow-
ing smaller as they receded from the
central mase, there were thirty cub gloom
vases filled with Japanese lilies, lilies of the
valley, tuberoses, gladiolus, and La France,
American Beauty and Mermot Duchess
roses. Above was a mass of oval and
diamond shaped figures of electric lights,
and over the entrance to the room was a
heavy rope of smilax and ferns inter-
twined with roses Ab each plate was en
elaborate menu card. In the upper left
band corner, end holding a walnut bow
in piece, was a great wax seal bearing the
monogram, " W. J. B." The first pegs
was a steel engraving of the agricultural
bending, and then came the menu. Fol-
lowing this came the toaat Usti, which
suggested the feast of ree.son and flow of
soul bo follow when the cloth had been
removed. The whole handsome affair was
fastened with a silken cord. As a souvenir
of au event of ouch interest bo the friend of
the farmer, I thought my copy of the menu
card with Mr. Buohanan't autograph, which
I secured, ought to go to the Hon. John
Dryden, Minister of Agriculture for
Ontario, for so far the prizes and awards of
honor Canada has won have been but a
tribute to the wisdom of the Ontario Gov-
ernment in aeeiebing by all possible merino

The Onborlo Agricultural College and Ex-
perimental Farm, in the light of to -day at
this Columbian World's Fair, are enduring
monuments to Sir Oliver Mowat'eappreciabion
of the fact bhab agriculture is bhe basis of a
nation's wealth. To Mr. Dryden, the origi-
nator of the" Travelling Dairy," is due the
thanks of all Canadians for tbo thoroughly
representative exhibition of Ontario's agri-
cultural resources tbab Commissioner Awrey
has been enabled to edify and astonish the
world with. The unique advorbfsemenb. of
Canada which Ontario's exhibits ab this
World's Fair constitute is of inceoulable
volae to the Dominion. As one who was
born and brought up on the farm, I nover
felt more honest pride in my life than
when Mr. Awrey, who found it impossible
to attend, asked me to represent Ontario
ab that rplendidly spontaneous recognition
of Chief of Agriculture Buohanan's worth.
The dignity of the Dominion was upheld by
that grand, good fellow Superintendent of
A}irioulture for Canada. R. te. Hodgins.

THE REGISTER
kept in the Ontario agricultural exhibit is a.
perfect mine of beeesurc for opinions of
visitors. Here aro a few : Oubario'a ex-
hibit beats the eeruh–Jas. P. Murray and
wife, Toronto. Two f emoue Boston ladies
way ; The Ontario exhibit is vary artistically
arranged—Miss C, F. Cook ; and, Certainly
a very fine exhibit and one to be proud of—
Miss J. H. Adams. Canada takes a front
seat in ogrioutture—John Dryden.
The Minister of Agriculture adds
beneath—and Mrs. Dryden thinks
so too. Mr. P. E. W. Moyer, editor
of the Berlin Daily News, says : The 0ata-
ria exhibition ie far, beyond all expectation,
and every Canadian mush feel increased
pride at the wonderful dieplay made by the
people of the Dominion. Canada is in all
respects ahead of all the nations when popu-
lation is taken into the count. Mr. R. B.
Tomlinson, of Minneapolis, Minn., writes :
I would not be true to my ammo Of justice
if I should hesitate to state that Chia exhi-
bition of the producbe of Ontario, in artistic
display, variety of cereals and grasses, sur-
passes anything which has come under my
observation in the World's Fair. I had no
ides that any part of Canada could offer
such an elaborate display. I am an Ameri-
can, and—ib is almost useless to add, in
view of what the United Sbatee can offer,—
we shall be glad to welcome Canada as part
of our Republic. Quick as a flash was
written beneath by some patriotic Canadian
–"Thanks; we have higher aspirations."
Mr.. H. H. Dewarb, Toronto, is reoponsibla
for this : The Ontario exhibit is one of
which all Canadians may well be proud, and
is well calculated to increase our confidence
in Canada's future greatness. Mr. Clifford
Sitbon, Attorney -General of Manitoba,
writes : Visited the Ontario exhibit and
eon proud of it. It is most creditable and
aecoad to none in the building. Mr. Robe.
Watson, Minister of Public Works for
Manitoba, signs next beneath as if his sen-
timents were like his associates. Ontario le
all right, wrote Mr. G. W. Johntoo, of
Upper Canada College). Mr. E. C. Eidmesnn,
of Maseouteh, 111., expresses himself this
way : The designs of the Ontario exhibit a in
the different courts are surpassed by none.
The quality of bhe grains and fruits rank
among the beet of any country on earth.
Mr. B. F. Justin, of Brampton, Ont., is
quoted as follows ; The Ontario exhibit is
artistically designed, appropriately arranged
and is truly repreeenhative of the varied and
abundant agricultural resources of the
Province. F. HOWARD AicNEs.
BRIDES MUST BLUSH.
--
The llteporLers Say So, Therefore They Do
Brush—in Print.
The phrase "a blushing bride " has come
bo be a mere figurative expression totally
faeppllcable to the serenely self-possessed
young woman who forma the centre of
attraction au the modern fashionable wed-
ding. Her grandmother, in order be behave
becomingly, culbivatod the utmost possible
shyoesa of demeanor, but a couple of gene-
rations have changed all that, and the
modern beide exhibits a placid composure
that would have been frowned upon unmer-
cifully a half century ago. At a recent
wedding in Washington, says Kate Field's
paper, the bride showed more than rho usual
lack of trepidation. The church was filled
with is brilliant company, and from the
moment of her entrance she knew herself to
be the oynosure of every eye, but she want
through the ceremony as ti bring married
were an everyday occurrence, to be regarded
with indifference, if nor with positive dia.
dain. Tho climax was reached when, lean-
ing on her hushand's aro), she passed
through the doorway leading to the vesti-
bule. Just inside the door stood a group of
friends–young women who had arrived too
late bo be accommodated with seats beyond
the ribbon. Pausing on the threshold,
knosting full well that every eye in the
church was bent upon her, the bride de-
liberately leaned toward her friends and
whimpered load enough to be hoard by the
byebandere : " 1'11 chrp:iron you girls next
season."
Facts Worth Hnow;ng.
Warm milk used as a welsh at night makes
hard, coarse or rough skin soft.
Ground cinnamon scattered in the cracks
teed corners of closets, pantries and bread
and cake boxes will drive away ants.
Never buy second-hand bedding unless
you know exactly from whom it came when
ib was new, and if anyone had been sick
on it.
One of the best cures for red eyelids is to
bathe them with water in which is dissolved
a little powdered borax. This simple lotion
fa almost mtracalous in its effects.
While the face should be washed for the
sake of cleanliness morning and night, it is
undoubtedly better for the skin not to wash
it through the day, but it may be gently
rubbed with s soft chamois skin.
To clean white ostrich plumes dissolve
four ounces of white soap in fear pints of
hot water. Make a lather and phage the
fathers into it, rubbing them well with the
kande for five or sir minutes. Wash out in
clear, hot water and shake until dry.
Do not Believe It,
Do nob believe that Nerviline will cure
neuralgia almoeb instantly. If your teeth
eche console yourself with the reflection
that pain can't lent; forever. Don't use
Nerviline—ib might stop the pain.
Rheumatism its often difficult to cure.
Keep oa rubbing the old fashioned liniments
as a matter of respect to your grandfather's
aunt. Norviline is a new discovery, that In

cling to the old ; suffer pain ; avoid the use
of Nerviline, t hemoet;powerful, penetrating,

proved his ruin, "crape" being bis favorite.
Ile would go tato too People's and bet $100

double the bet and doable it again as long
as allowed to do so. He lost $11,500 in ono
night in Tacoma. In fact, he never won

everybody.

WHAT THE PEOPLE SAY OF IT..
With pleasure I give my testimony andram•-
commend Eby's It'loctric Salve to all suit'eeero
from Eczema or Salt 12henret. My bands were
very bad last year. Your agent called and I
bought a box of the salve and after bathing in
hot water as hot as could be borne .mod it, seed ;,
found instant relief. After two or three appli-
cations my hands became quite smooth. 11
have advised others to use it for Sore Byea
Run-arounds, etc., and they have exrperienceii
beneficial results.

boxes of Eby's Electric .Salvo it compietetr
cured a frost bite with which I had boon trona
bled for about two years.

I have used Eby's Ileotrio Salve and
recominend it as one of the bests healing saved
