In announcing the date of opening Sir
James Whitney indicated that he did
not anticipate that the neaten would be

departments concerned have the pre-

"From 32,000,000 sores under onitiva•

This amount, due to the eo-oalied 'off

Contracted a
Heavy Cold.
It Became a Lung
Splitting Cough.
Mr. J. H. Richards, 1852 Second Ave.
East, Vancouver, B.C., writes: "Allow
me to write a few lines in praise of your
Dr. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup. Lest
fall I contracted a heavy cold which left
me with a hacking cough and every time
I would get a little more cold this hacking
cough would become a lung splitting one.
It kept on getting worse and I 'kept on
spending money buying different cough
remedies until a friend staked me if I
had ever tried Dr. Wood's Norway Pine
'Syrup. I told him I was willing to try
anything I thought would cure, and on
the ssme day bought two bottles. Be-
fore half the first one was used my cough
began to get much easier, and by the time
1 had used a bottle and a; half my cough
was gone. I am keeping the other half
bottle in case it should come again, but
I am sure I have a positive cure. Let
'me recommend Dr, Wood's Norway Pine
Syrup to all who suffer from a cough or
throat irritation of any kind."
So great has been the emcees of this
wonderful remedy, it is only natural
that numerous persona have tried to
imitate it
Don't be imposed upon by tslring
'anything but "Dr. Wood's."

Eastern warfare also brought in the

in control, and used. with skill. Hence
each of them fought most of his bat-
tles by charging with leis cavalry on
his right wing, overthrowing the ene-
my's horse, and then avoiding the
temptation to pursue, charging the
enemy's infantry in flank, and so de-
ciding the issue. Meanwhile they both
felt strong enough to disregard a de-
feat on their left wing by the enemy's
horse, which was not under proper
discipline, and went far away out of
their battle in pursuit. So similar is
the course of these battles, that one
is tempted to believe that Cromwell
knew something of Alexander. It is
not so. Each of these men found by
his genius the best way of using the
ioxcessides. at his disposal. Alexander's
Companions were Cromwell's Iron -

fell short of our ideal of a great com-

heed of his cavalry, and himself took
part in the thickest of the fight.
Hence in every battle he ran the risk
of ending the campaign with hit own
life. It may be said that he had full
confidence in hie fortune, and that the
king's valor gave tremendous force
to the charge of his personal com-
panions. But nothing can convince 03
that I-lannibal's view of his duties was
not far higher, of whom it was noted
that he always took ample. care for
his own safety, nor did he ever, so far
as we know, risk himself as a come
batant. Alexander's example, here as
elsewhere, gave the law, and so a
large proportion of his successors
found their death on the battlefield. •
The aping of Alexander was appar-
ently the main cause of this serious
result,
Putting His Foot In It.
Charles Dickens once wrote to a
friend: •
"I have distinguished myself in
two respects lately. • I took a young
lady, unknown, down to dinner, and
talked •to her about the Bishop of
Durham's nepotism in the matter of
cheese. I found she was Mrs. Cheese.
And I expatiated to the member for.
Marylebone, thinking .him to be an
Irish member, on the contemptible'
character of the Marylebone constitu-
ency and ,the Marylebone representa-
tive. "
Two such mishaps in one evening
were enough to reduce the most bril-
liant talker to the condition of the
three inside passengers of a London -
bound coach, who beguiled the
tedium of the journey from South-
ampton by discussing the demerits
of William Cobbett until one of the,
party went 'so far as to assert that
the object of their denunciation was
a domestic "tyrant, given to beating
his wife.
Much to his dismay the solitary
woman passenger, who had hitherto
sat a silent Iistener, remarked:
"Pardon me, sir, a kinder husband
and father never breathed; and I
ought to know, for I am William Cob-
bett's wife."

"I do think," said Mrs. McGoozle,
"my husband is the most persistently

we were waiting on a platform of one
of the elevated railway stations for
a train he saw the sign'' Out of order'
on one of those chewing gum slot
machines.
'I'm willing to bet a cent it isn't

"And he dropped a coin in the slot.
He didn't get any stick of gum and
he didn't get his money hack.
