Pretty and small feet ere well assured, on_ everybody, An old Dutchman near Kincardine has a clever boy of whom he is very proud. and one day recently be de- termined to tind out the bent of his mind. He adopted a novel method by which to test him. He slipped into the little fellow's room and placed on his table a bible. a’bottle of whiskey and a dollar. “ Now ” said said he. " ven dot boy come in. if he dukes dot dollar he’s going to be a beesness man. if he dukes dot whisk- ey he no gootâ€"he’s goin’ to he a drunkard” and he hid behind the door to see which the hey would choose. In came the boy whistling. He ran up to the table and picked up the dollar and put it in his pocket; he picked up the bible and put it un- der his arm: then he snatched up the bottle of whiskey, and took two or three drinks. and then went out smacking his lips. The old Dutch- man poked his head out from behind the door. and exclaiined.â€""Mine Got. he’s going to be a politician.” 'l‘he Kingston Freeman has an in- teresting comparison between a ho) and a bull-pup. which is decidedly to the advantage of the owner of the pup as compared to the father of tl.-' hoyâ€"-that is the particular boy un- der review.

They are germinated from the pure seed gathered at home, and sown broadcast on the streets1 and alleys. The boy ought to be given an equal chance with the bull- pup. in the elementary work every sub- ject is ol equal educational value, and it is not until the pupils enter the High School Department that he has the opportunity to work his own hobbies. The School curriculum as at. present formulated may be the best attainable. and for general all round work may be the best educa- tional syllabus for the youth of this country. but it does seem a little out of harmony to intlim on a ho, or girl. with the privilege of a' tending school Only a couple of months each year, the whole course laid down by the department.

We got into Moville at 11 p. m.. landed. mails and passengers and proceeded for Liver- pool at “:25 p. m. During this af- ternoon off the Irish Coast we en- countered the heaviest sea and most disag'eeable weather of the whole‘ trip for a few hours only. About 4. a. m. on Tuesday morning Sighted Ailsa Craig and Landa Island on the Coast of Scotland. About 10 a. m. the Isle of Man bore in sight, the rocky shore of which excited the wonder of many who now looked up- on those scenes for the first time. On approaching the mouth of the river Mersey the vast changes that have taken place there were all dulv taken notice of. The watering place -' New Brighton.” on the opposite banks from Liverpool. is a scene of great beauty where was formerly barren shores, is now formed into parks and pleasure grounds. Fine residences, finely laid out streets and an air of luxury surrounding the whole that shows plainly the great amounts which must have been ex- pended to accomplish such works of beauty. 0n the Tiverpool side again new docks, stonu piers extending for: miles. new fortifications, vast fac- tories, also show the great progress in shipping and mercantile expansion that has taken piece during the past decade.

Langour. sleeplessness, loss of appetite, indigestion and many other discomforts are caused by catarrh. But to know this is to only half. Catarrh is a most deadly ‘ disease.,and afiects more than 90 per Poem. of the people today. It under- mines health, and if unchecked will surely and quickly lead to the grave. Consumption can be traced back in most instances to abad cold or ca- tarrh that was neglected. Don’t court this white plague. insure your- self at once against it by inhaling Catarrhozone, a pleasant antiseptic medication that is inhaled into the lungs, nasal passages, throat and bronchical tubes where it kills dis- ease germs and prevents their devel~ opment.

The system of handling baggage is aperiect nuis- lance. Every time you move down goes your hand into your pocket and it does not stay there if you want to get along. Those parties that carried trunks were sick of it before getting out of the railway station at Liver- pool, but we must say that if the baggage system is poor the cars are excellent. well cushioned and uphol- stered seats divided into compart- ments holding six persons comfortab- ly with lavatories attached. soap and towels provided free, all other con- veniences necessary.

But beware of the railway refresh- ment rooms. You get about two bites and a mouthful of tea or coffee. When the Guard (or conductor) sings out all aboard.
