All the fingers were taken off up to the palm, except a very small part of the index finger. Foreign Representatives. Mr. Lewis, M. P. for Huron, last week brought up the question of for- eign representatives at Ottawa. Some nations have Consul -general there now, but these have no official status, and all questions between the coun- tries represented by them and Canada have to he dealt with via London. Sir Wilfrid Laurier said correspon- dence is now going on between Otta- wa and London looking to the placing of these representatives on a footing equivalent to that of ani bassadhh'. Long Distance Wireless Message. Wireless communication direct over land between the gulf of Mexico and the great lakes of the North was estab- lished recently, when a message was fleshed from the Port Arthur (Tex,) wireless station, carrying the compli- ments of the Houston Post to the Re- cord Herald in Chicago. The weather conditions were ideal. This is probab- ly the longest an overland wireless message has yet been carried. Bri- tain's Antarctic expedition now in course cd preparation will carry a wireless telegraphic equipment suf- ficient to enable message to be sent to New Zealand from the ship, and from stations establishing at bases of sup- plies on land or ice. To Prevent Pollution Of 'Lakes. A. bill has been introduced in the Senate which is intended to prevent the deposit of any sewage, offal, or refuse animal of vegetable matter of any kind whatsoever, into any river, stream or other water, any part of which is navigable or which flows in- to any navigable water.” It is under- stood that like action will be taken by neighboring states. At present at Niagara Falls, New York, they have a chute through which all the garbage of the city is dumped into the Niagara River. Dead horses, cats and dogs and all kinds of corruptive matters are dumped down this chute. If laws such as proarosed are passed on both sides of the line the pouring of any sewage into any of the great lakes or rivers will be prohibited.

Among many interesting appoint- ments announced at the commission- ing of Salvation Army cadets at Clap- ton, England, last week, the most in- teresting, probably was that of Cadet Annie Beckley, who was promoted to the rank of captain, and given march- ing orders for the leper settlement in Java. Captain Beckley is wise enough to take a level-headed view of her appointment. It is one of the most self-sacrificing brandies of Salva- tion service. Nevertheless, says the captain, "I am going for life, if the Army will let me stay so long, and, at any rate, it will be for years. I am not afraid of getting the disease, for I am going on God's service. I have counted the cost, and I quite under- stand what the risks are. I have to die, and if needs be I may as well die out amongst those stricken souls." She Volunteered to go some years ago. .,' HARRY REID KNOWS.

Why Green Flour When You Can Get Five Roses (A) Age is a wonderful improver—in certain things. and flour is one of these. Practically all cheap flours are " green " flours. Lip till five or six months after milling, good flour will go on im- ptoving steadily in quality and dryness, developing many admirable traits which it would not otherwise possess. ---For instance, clearer color, smoother «feel," increased absorption, and so on, it is in obedience to this same principle that good wine gets better, ,and a mere " fiddle " develops into a valuable violin. But itmust be good in the beginning. At the end of a century or more, a cigar box would hardly become a Stradivarius. When a flour is improperly milled or milled from cheap, off -grade wheat, it has lost its keeptngqualities before It ever had them, It can only get worse with age. Your dough cannot rise—shows poor graining in the loaf with a crumbling crumb and sickly crust. Your best pastry efforts are rewarded with corresponding pastry evils. e e When your friends are seated round the table, comes the discovery, the very embarrassing crestfallen apologies. FIVE ROSES, Madam, is milled right from perfect mateMais in a sanitary plant cleaner than your own kitchen, if that be possible. It is packed right and stored awhile in our own store- houses, until expert exami- +,i tiers declare it aged to proper dry- ness, without a trace of acidity. Marvels of cleanliness and care are these storehouses of ours. To visit them would gladden the heart of the most finicky housekeeper. *Twould astonish you, Madam, really. * * * 8 FIVE ROSES is never " green;" never weak, nor " dead," nor acid. FIVE ROSES is drier, and being drier absorbs more water, producing more of those light, toothsome, flaky loaves and rolls which tickle the knowing palate and fill a vacant place most pleasantly. Those extra loaves pay more than the difference in first cost. Since you want a flour fully matured and seasoned, that cannot spoil or sour on your hands or mitbehavein any way, that does not acquire the "worm habit*" but improves with age. If you want this flour, Madam, you will insist on FIVE ROSES from your grocer.

WALKER Furniture and Undertaking General Sheridan And Drink,. general Sheridan ---"Fighting Phil," as he was called in the days of the Civil War—stood talking with an old army comrade in Washington one day, when Sheridan's four children drove away in a cart. The fond fath. er looked after them with a tender glance and then said to his friend :— "I often think that pitfalls are in waiting for my small brave soldiers all through life, I wish I could always help them over." "Phil, if you could save your little son from the most to be feared of all temptations which will beset him, what would it be?" General Sheridan leaned his head against the doorway and said soberly, "It would be the curse of strong drink. Boys are not saints, We are all self willed, strong willed, may be full of courage and thrift, and just and kindness and charity, but woe to the man who becomes a slave to liquor. Oh, I would rather see my little son die to -day than to see him carried in to his mother drunk." The are thousands of parents who have the same feeling about their boys as this brilliant commander. Help to save the boys. " UNLUCKY " FRIDAYS. All kinds of superstitions gather round Friday. For instance, some people will tell you it is unlucky to be married on that day, or to begin a task of importance, Now, as a matter of fact, records show a great many lucky happenings on Friday. Here are a few :— Great men like Washington, Bis- marck, Gladstone, Beaconsfield, Fahr- enheit and Spurgeon were born on that day. On Friday Henry VIII gave the ex- plorer Cabot his commission which led to the discovery of North America; while America itself was discovered by Columbus on an "unlucky" day, And the Pilgrims landed on Plymouth Rock on a Friday. Again, we have the first newspaper advertisement and the first newspaper printed by steam power (The London Times) appearing on Friday. On the same day of the week the stamp act was repealed by England. So perhaps it is just as well to admit that it is a good day, as Chas, Dickens did, with whom it was a favorite. Dominion Parliament. In the Commons last week, Hon. Geo, G. Foster brought up the ques- tion of United States war vessels on the lakes, He said there appeared to be ten of these vesels with 30,,officers, 560 men, and over 60 guns. Besides this he said there were 1,843 naval reserve men at lake ports. This force could, Mr. Foster said, in the event of trouble, tie up Canada's lake trade in 2k hours.
