Portunetely, the bachelora who come un- der this berraing aro few and far between and sorae of their cases might bo rensedlea did they but go the right way about It. Supposing a man situated as these are falls in love with e girl and has reason to feel that his love is reciprocated. Why should he not tell her of his love Etna 1318 circumseances, and see if between them they cannot find some way of solving the problem. Nine times out of 'ten the girl would be willing to sacrifice much for the sake of becoming his wife. Of course, mixed households are not de- sirable, and it Is much better that married people should live by themselves, if possi- ble, says the Philtdelphia Bulletin. But If It comes to the point of giving each other up entirely or living with the raan's people, most young folk would decide In fever of the latter course. Naturally, the question of expense is tbe most Important item to be consleered. The man feels that be cannot afford to add ono more to the number ot those he has to provide for, and there is the possi- bility or a growing family to be thought of. But even allowing for all this, he shoule run the risk; that is, always providing that he is thoroughly in love. He will have to take his family into Ills confidence, and as he is doing every • thing for them, It le only fair that tbey ishould be willing to eeonomize and help him to happiness In every way they can. The circumstances may be straitened and there will be many times when life seems hard, but after all there will be love to sweeten eerything, and that is the best, the moat important thing hi. life. And there is another side to the question, and that le that the fact that he cannot af- Lord to marry does not, as a rule, keep a man from paying • attention to e glrl anc4 winning her love. He may mention In a casual manner that he cannot afford to marry, but girls are always thinking ot matrimony (in spite ot many solemn assertions to the contrary), and oft-tlmes do not dream of marrying a man until they find themselves head over heels in love with him. Again, men so often have the 'dee that they cannot marry tintll they are com- paratively well off. That is all right, as poverty is not the anost desirable state on earth, but there ls a broad line between poverty and affluence, and no young people have ever yet been the 'worse off for baying to deprive themselves et a few luxuries. Half the bachelors who think they cannot afford to marry can do no It they form a committee of two on ways and means. Don't be discouraged because you carry the responsibilities of the taxony on your shoulders. Bring your young men friends to the house and let them see what nice girls your sis- ters are. They will fall In love with them sod some of the responsibility will be lifted, Then bring your wife home, and together you can help make sweet the declining years of the old people, This advice Is, of course, given with the assumption that you would marre it you could RHEUMATIC SUrIFERERS • Will find a Certain Cure in the Use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Rheumatism is a disease of the blood, Every doctor now admits this to be the fact. Doctors used to think that theta mitism was brought on by colds in the joints and muscles. Now they know that cold never started the disease— cold only sets the pains going. Rheuma- tism can only be cured by curing the bad blood which causes it. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills always cure rheumatism, because they actually make new, eich red blood, which drives out the poison- ous acids, loosens the stiffened, aching joints and muscles, and restores the rheumatic sufferer to health and happi- ness. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have cured thousands and thousands of rheu- matic sufferers some of them when they were almost hopeless cripples. Mr. T. H. Smith, Caledonia, Ont., says: "For a number of years I was badly troubled with rheumatism, and was so crippled I could scarcely do any work. I tried quite a number of medicines, but they did not help me. Then I saw Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills advertised as a cure for this trouble, and got a supply. After I had taken a few boxes I saw they were helping me, and I continued taking the pills throughout the winter, and am now completely cured. I have since worked out of doors in cold .weather without a coat, and did not feel even a twinge of the touble." If you are suffering from any disease due to bad blood or disordered nerves, Dr. Williams' Pink Pills will cure you, because they make new, rich blood, which foes right to the root of the disease and drives it from the system. That Is why Dr. Wiliams' Pink Pills cure such troubles as anaemia, indigestion, palpitation of the heart, neuralgia, head- ' aches and back aches, kidney and liver troubles, St. Vitus' dance paralysis, and the special secret ailments of girlhood and womanhood. But only the genuine pills can do this and these always have the full name "Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People" on the wrapper around each box. Sold by medicine dealers every -where, or sent by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2,50, by writing the Dr. 'Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Out. Naming Liners. Sleeping car companies will give a ear any name that is euphonious and short enough to bask well on the panel on the side of the car, but even at that they have hard time to keep pace with the %creasing number of cars. Ocean liners, on the other hand, make 4 less demand upon originality, though the names are not bestowed haphazard, as would at first appear. Every big com- pany las it system of its own and rig- idly edheras to certain simple rules. A White Star liner, for instance, must have a name ending in "ie," though it may take its name from a country, peo- ple or sea'as the Teutenie, Afrie, Ocean- ic. The Cuteud line goes to ancient Roman geography for its inspiration, but insists upon Hid terminal "ia," as Campania, Etruria and Umbria, The American line Bads ita names in the cities and States, while the Atlantie Transport liners haste nestle of Indian derivation co/erne/icing with "M."

Tho follewing statement regarding crop coneitions en the int of November, based on reaults of isle bundred correspondents, has been Issued by tbe (sated° Department of Agriculture: Wheat—While a majority ot corres- posnienta ilescrlbe fall wheat an being of geed quality, SOnle *peak of the grain as be - lug rather skim:Mee and light in weight. All the cereals suffered more or less from a few days et exceedingly lot weather lim- ing the rIpeniug Wage, but moat of the in- jury came from heavy rains during the lat. ter part os harvesting. Rust in fall wheat was complained 01 by some correspondents, but very little harm to the crop was re- ported from Dessiam fly or other it:sleets. Spring Wheat—This class ot wheat is not SO widely known as the fall varieties, but the quality of this season's crop is rated by correspondents as from mediuth to very good, and there are no complaints of the grain Doing under weight. Tbe Now Pall Wheat—"rhe area of new fall wheat Is larger thanthat of last year, . taking the Province over, although a fog counties may show a decreasie. Barley—, rids crop may be considered as above the average In both yield and quai- ity. Somo fields were more or lees injured by rain, but most of the grain was of good color. It was relatively the beet cereal crop of the year. Oats—Oats, ripening later than either wheat or barley, guttered more than these from rain. There was consequently a good deal of lodging, and a considerable amount of rust wan also reported, While tbe )104 per acre is a large one, some of the grain Is reported to be light in weight. Rye—Correspondents have oven lees then usual to say about rye, but the crop where grown turned oUt talrle Pease-Ia both yield and qualitY, peas are well up to the average. There was colas paratively little injury from tho weevil, or "bug," which for some years past has wrou,ght havoc in the Province, The crop suffered more from rain than any other cause. Potatoes—Almost up to the time of digs ging, an immense yield of potatoes Was promised, but rot net in and many corres- pondents report losses from this cause, in both pit and cellar, ranging from 10 to 76 per cent, Turnips—This crop may be classed as a comparative failure, The aphis popularity known as the turnip louse, appeared In greater force than for years, and hindered the development of the bulbs, which sev- eral correspondents describe as being small and rooty. Mangel Wurzels—These roots did much better than turnips, both as regards yield and quality. Carrots—Carrots as a field crop do not appear to be general, but have done well where grown. Sugar Beets—This class of roots is in • creasing in favor as food for live stock. Cor- respondents claim that they are of good quality this year, both for sugar purposes and for feeding. Pastures and Live Stock—Pastures were in from fair to good condition during the sum- mer and fall, and this favored all classes of Ilve stock. Cattle were reported to be rather thin, but healthy. More beef ani- mals am on hand than is usual at this time of year, owing to the comparatively low prices effered and the abundance of fodder on hand. Sheep are scarce and in good demand. The Dairy—Sufficient pasture, a steady flow of milk, and good prices for both but- ter and cheese, have made the season a moat successful one for dairying. Poultry—Correspondents speak of broilers more frequently than usual, and In this con- nection one of them remarks that the In- cubator is beginning to "loom large." Turkeys did not do so well AS the other varieties of fov,e. Bees and Honey—Bees made but very lit- tle basswood honey this season, most of the product coming from the clovers. While many apiarists regard the yield as a fair average one, some claim that there will have to be much feeding back, Prult—Prult trees generally are reported In good condition, although a email per- centage bave died during the summer, sup- posedly from the effects of the severe win- ter of 1903-04.

Just as lie is careful to put oil on his harvester bearings, so should he be as careful to keep his live stock machinery in good working condi- tion.

Clydesdale Stock Food Is the oil to ease the load on your animal's digestive machinery, be- cause it increases the digestive fluids owing to the foodbeing made "tasty."

A. T. (Tales and Talk), in a very Interesting article. To begin with, he woula hays to pay whet is there known as a "Hauclassens- teuer" literary "house -class tax"), a Gil- lsortian species of impost levied 015 each house la uecoraa.nee with its assume.1 respectability and Me soetal status of the Inmates. The idea Is almost precisely the same as that which regulates, or it supposed to ,regulate the doctors' charges In this country; the blesger and =tarter your resideece, the more you have to Pay. Thou there is the crushing house -rent 1 tax (quite distinct from and M additlea to the above), which amounts at proem to within a frau Don of GO per cent, of tne actual rent. Fancy the indignation and . disgust of the average British citizen rf • he bad to pay a aee a year tax on his Xlte 1 a year house, But even this is not ell. In Vienna a intro' duties—commonly called by the lower classes of 'Viennese the "belly tax" 1 —which raises the price et all articles ot food, driek, etc., brought into the city markets from the couutry. Try anl . imagine the outcry there would be in 1 London It every :pound of vegetables ; brought Into Covent Garden, every stoue ; at meat convoyed to Smithfield, and many head of game takeu to Leadenhall, were heavily taxed, ere being permitted to be retailed to the consumer. But even this is not all. In Vienna a man must pay a tax in order to obtain permission to earn the wherewithal to pay further taxes. This sounds para- doxical, but it is true. In this country, with the exception of the publican, the' pawnbroker, en done or two others, no trader even is called uponto pay any- thing for the privilege of carrying on his business. But in Austria a license is required for practically every kind of trade, profession, or occupagon; so that a man cannot start work, as, say, a chim- ney -sweep or a carpenter, without first obtaining from the authorities a permit, for which he has to pay something between Iwo shillings and fifty pounds a year. Similar rapacity, although posslbly of a lass all -embracing character, exists in many other Continental cities and coun- tries. For instance, Holland extracts what is called an "Impost of Persons." This is a tax, or rather, a series of taxes, levied on a men's personal poseessiona, and is payable by everybody who lives under a roof, whether an owner, tenant - in -chief, or lodger, Thus, supposing a scan rents a room at, say, five shillings a week, be is assessed ten shillings per annum for the accommodation, and has also to pay upon his furniture, his be- longings generally, and his fixtures, such as gas brackets, blinds, etc. In all pro- bability he will not get off under thirty shillings per annum, and, of course, the 1 more rooms he occupies, and the more personal property he is possessed of, the more be has to pay. 1 Russia levies what Is known as a "so- journ tax." This is an impost payable by every subject ot the Cza , who re- sides for more ,than three days at a time away from his own town, village or cora- , mune. How would you like to be served 1 with a tax -demand note because of your annual trip abroad, or to the seaside? ' And what would our railway companies have to say with regard to what is prac- tically a tax upon holidays, if such were ever introduced into this country? Finally, there is. France, which Is In many respects worse off than any othee Continental country, with the .exception . perhaps, of Austria. The abominable window tax, long since abandoned by all ' other governments, and indefensible on hygienic grounds, Is here rigidly enforc- ed; and there is besides a door tax, se that light and ventilation have really to be bought, In practice, in fact, every Frenchman Is fined for every breath of fresh air he Inhales into his lungs, zo long . as he remains within doors; and he has to pay, too, pro rata, for the sunbeams that ' warm his sitting -room. • 1T Mistaken Ideas About Consumption, 1 The action of t115 Jerscy C' y of Health in insisting that the railroad companies having their terminal in that city shall provide special cars for the conveyance of consumptives seems to us I a clear case of plithisisphobia, a, case where zeal for public service has outrun discretion and common seuse. It is dif- ficult to believe that such a requirement cabe based on the advice of skilled and competent medical counsel. In the first! place, how and by whoni shall it be de- termined that a railroad passenger is a consumptive? Such persons are not or- dinarily labeled, and are naturally averse to making any public declaration of their malady. It is now a generally recog- nized fact, too, that a person may be afficted with tuberculosis in it pro- nounced form before any outward and visible symptoms appear such as tut commonly associated with the disease. Many persons, doubtless, have tho mal- ady in a communicable form for a long time before they are aware of it them- selves. Moreover, it is now an estab- lished fact that consumption is not an epidemic disease in the common accept- ance of the term. It is not communie- seseP able by the breath; it is not in "the air." see It can be conveyed from one person to another only by means of the sputuzn or by other excreta from an afflicted part. As long as due care is observed in the disposition of these things the presence of a consumptive in a railway car; or in any other place, involves no risk whatever to other people. The en- forcement, therefore, of such a rule as that proposed by the Jersey City Board of Health seems to us not only wholly 'impracticable as a precautionary meas- ure, but quite unessential. To the ex- tent that it might be enforced it would work an unnecessary hardship not only upon the railroad companies, but upon such sufferers as might be broeght under its application—Leslie's Weekly. ••••••••• Blue Ribbon Fragrance s not " wasted on the desert air" or the grocer'* shop, It is preserved by careful sealing in tau packets till it comes to you fresh and pure at when first picked, No other compares with .1 .11 1••i 11,1 11 613S;,4 1 lemons is used, and so on, until at the end of twenty-five days the persistent patient is wallowing the juice of twen- ty-five.

If we failed to leave "calls" at the office at night Kind things in the bed clothes would wake Un all right, And when we got up and away from the place We called It a shame and a crying dis- • But we always went back there three times every day And continued to eat there and sleep there --pay.

A recent English robisery ea.se which reads almost like one of the Sherloe,le Holmes storiea related to the detection of a thief through his fondness for flow- ers. The only clew felt by the robber, of a house near Northampton was a 'rag. ment of a flower, whose, petals were scattered over the floor. No flowers of the same sort were grown in the garden of the house robbed or by the neighbons, but an investigation of the florist Mope in the nearby town, showed that a. flowee of that sort had been pUrchneed the evening before by a man who was *vow' nized from the description given to be e well known burglar, At the trial it was shown that., al- though the night had been warm, the thief, who was of delicate health, had worn a light overcoat, which crushed the petals Of the flower beneath, anti these had fallen to the carpet when he had opened his coat to stow away the jewels which constituted the greater part of tbe spoils. Although the clew was a elight one it was correct, and the luxury loving crook will have no need of flowers to decorate his broad arrow suit for some time to come. _ TEETHING TROUBLE.
