SIMPLE FISHER FOLK THE NEWFOUNDLANDERS ARE EASILY IMPOSED UPON. A Pathetic and Tragic Incident That Illustrates the Attitude of the "Upper" Classes—The Hardy Courage of the Outporters. "St. John's, N. F., lives by its fisheries; nothing worth while is produced there, but, according to the unsophisticated stranger, there is a noisy and vituperative wrangling over the wealth that comes down from the coasts," says a writer in the World's Work. "There are some few factories, to be sure, but they are too ingeniously managed by half. For instance, a certain brand of tobacco, made at St. John's and exclusively consumed by fishermen, is sold in the French island of St. Pierre for half what it costs the Newfoundland 'bay noddle,' and the manufacturers pay $15,000 yearly to the proprietor of a rival concern to induce him to keep his plant shut down. At St. John's, too, is the aristocracy of the colony—merchants, middlemen, lawyers, physicians, officeholders, tricky and abusive politicians and colonial knights (the visitor may observe on a signboard above a little corner store: Sir Thomas Morburn, Grocer, Cheap Teas). There is neither sympathy nor mercy for the fisherman here, though there is a most enthusiastic reception for what he takes from the sea. He is regarded as legitimate prey, is most marvelously lied to before election and abused, ridiculed and reviled afterward. But through it all he preserves a humble faith in 'all those set in authority over him.'" "A doctor of the outports—the incident is related because, though it may appear an extraordinary case, it yet aptly indicates what has for years been the attitude of the 'upper' classes toward the fishermen, without whom Newfoundland would lie waste and deserted, the shame of the fair earth—a doctor of the outports was once called to a little white cottage where three children lay sick of diphtheria. He was the family physician—that is to say, the fisherman paid him so much by the year for medical attendance." A SCOUT'S HARD LIFE. Some of the Hardships and Dangers That Must Be Faced. An unfortunate, says Leslie's Monthly, was sent with a dispatch to one of the smaller outposts in the far northwest. It was toward spring, when the midday sun thaws the surface of the snow and the light frosts harden the melted crusts to a glace of ice as dazzlingly bright as the blinding flashes of sunlight from polished steel. The thaw had crusted over the trail, and the scout had to keep a sharp eye on the way not to lose the path altogether. Suddenly the shiddy sun developed extraordinary hues. Magenth, purple and black patches began to dance on the snow, alternately with wheels and rockets of cheese colored fire. Then the light went out altogether, though the man knew that it was broad day. He had become snow blind. The only thing was to give his horse the bit. The horse stood stock still. By that time he knew that he had lost the trail altogether or the broncho would have followed any visible path. He wheeled the horse about. It still refused to go on, and then the man inferred that the crust of ice had been so hard that the horse could not follow back the way it had come. That night the trooper slept under saddle blankets, with the faithful horse standing sentry. For five days the trooper wandered blindly over the prairies, losing all count of time, eating snow to quench his thirst and sleeping in the holes that the broncho had pawed through the ice crust to the under grass. The trooper was now too weak to mount and keep the saddle. As a last hope the thought struck him that if he unsadhed his horse and turned it loose it might find its way back to the fort, and so notify his friends that he was lost. He did this, but the faithful creature refused to leave the man lying on the snow and stood over him in spite of all his efforts to drive it off. On the sixth day the mail carrier found the pair. The trooper was severely frozen, but the rider and horse lived to see many another day's service. PICKINGS FROM FICTION.

"If your majesty were on horseback in the midst ple," Girardin said, "and in abdication of the emperor he prince imperial, your ownation of the title of empress he appointment Thiers minister, the empire might Something must be done tide." The empress accepted that when this leader of the work sought for a proper costume performance it could not. The only riding habit in this was a fantastic one of green tint with gold and silver festal hunting occasion, and was a not less fantastic thrill affair of the epoch of Lo. The empress felt that it would appear in this garb qn suction. Her appearance in it opposite effect upon plan land to be given up, tint and the prince imperial wea end.

The best way to se A doctor of the outports—the incident is related because, though it may appear an extraordinary case, it yet aptly indicates what has for years been the attitude of the 'upper' classes toward the fishermen, without whom Newfoundland would lie waste and deserted, the shame of the fair earth—a doctor of the outports was once called to a little white cottage where three children lay sick of diphtheria. He was the family physician—that is to say, the fisherman paid him so much by the year for medical attendance. But the injection of antitoxin is a 'surgical operation' and therefore not provided for by the annual fee. "This," said the doctor, 'will cost you $2 an injection, John.' "Oh, lss, zurl!" was the ready reply. 'I'll pay you, zur. Go on, zurl.' "But you know my rule, John—no pay, no work. I can't break it for you, you know, or I'd have to break it for half the coast." "Oh, ayel! 'Tis all right. I wants uncured. I'll pay you when I sells me fish." "But you know my rule, John—cash down." "The fisherman had but $4, no more. Nor could he obtain any more, though the doctor gave him ample time. I am sure that he loved his children dearly, but, unfortunately, he had no more than $4, and there was no other doctor for fifty miles up and down the coast. "Four dollars,' said the doctor, 'two children. Which ones shall it be, John?" "Which ones? Why, of course, after all, the doctor had himself to make the choice. John couldn't. So the doctor chose the 'handiest' ones. The other one died. "Well,' said John, unresentfully, the day after the funeral, I'spouse a doctor have a right t' be paid for what he does. But,' much puzzled, 'tis kind o queer!" "The Newfoundland outporters are hardy, courageous, boldly adventurous, simple lived, God fearing, warm hearted—a physically splendid race of men. Cowards and weaklings have for four hundred years been the unfit of the place; they occur, of course, in the best regulated families, but do not long survive, for exposure kills off the weaklings, and in the midst of many dangers the cowards lose their lives. Children learn to sail a punt at six or seven years old, and at every age they are encouraged to play at the highly dangerous game (called copying) of prancing about on floating ice. The skill acquired in leaping from one sinking block to another would make the trumpeted river driver look like a blundering child. As men, they know their punts as intimately as a cowboy knows his horse, and they will say of their boats in a gale, 'I thought she'd not live through it t'day,' with the same unconcern that a cowboy might say of his horse. He nearly thrown me that time.' The race is truly hardy and courageous. It was John Butt, with a broken collar bone and a split forehead to show for it, who survived two wild, snowy nights and a day on a twenty foot ice pan, over which for many hours broke great seas, heavy with jagged fragments of ice, and it was a reckless Green bay skipper who keep the saddle. As a last hope the thought struck him that if he unsadied his horse and turned it loose it might find its way back to the fort, and so notify his friends that he was lost. He did this, but the faithful creature refused to leave the man lying on the snow and stood over him in spite of all his efforts to drive it off. On the sixth day the mail carrier found the pair.

An old legend which makes no pretense to truth tells how a kingdom was lost for want of a horseshoe nail. But a volume of sober historical and biographical purpose, written by Count d'Herrison, makes it appear that the Empress Engenle, after the battle of Sedan, lost the chance to preserve the empire of her husband by not possessing exactly the right sort of riding habit. It was the evening of Sept. 3, 1870. The news of the surrender of the French army and of the Emperor Napoleon at Sedan had spread about Paris. The city was excited, and there was talk of a revolution and the banishment of the imperial family. At this juncture Emile de Griardin, a man who was trusted by the empress and who had had no little experience during the previous changes of governmont, arrived at the palace of the Tuileries. "If your majesty were to appear on horseback in the midst of the people," Griardin said, "and announce the abdication of the emperor in favor of the prince imperial, your own assumption of the title of empress regent and the appointment of Thiers as prime minister, the empire might be saved. Something must be done to turn the tide." The empress accepted the advice. But when this leader of the world's fashion sought for a proper costume for her performance it could not be found. The only riding habit in the Tuileries was a fantastic one of green, embroidered with gold and silver master festal hunting occasion, and the haunt was a not less fantastic three cornered affair of the epoch of Louis Quinze. The empress felt that it would not do appear in this garb on such an occasion. Her appearance in it might have the opposite effect upon the people from that which she intended. The plan had to be given up, the empress and the prince imperial were banished and the Napoleonic empire was at an end. Beautiful Complexions Are spoiled by using any kind of preparation that fills the pores of the skin. The best way to secure a clear Can Dogs Laught The celebrated French physiognomist Graftolet admitted that dogs have what he called "the smile of the eyes." "The smile of the mouth," however, he regarded as peculiar to man. Scotch collies certainly seem at times to smile at sights which are comical, and on occasions at their masters. Many instances have been advanced to prove their quick appreciation of a joie. One of these intelligent dogs used to look with a knowing air at his master when he saw a traveling bear, and his lips were drawn back at the corners and his eyes twinkled with quite a conscious smile. Darwin recognized this sense of humor in a dog, and refers to its sportive play when a stick is thrown, which it picks up and almost allows you to recover before it darts away with it. Mr. Lloyd Morgan tells of a retriever, a "jolly dog," which showed its sense of fun upon the sands, where it would bury a number of small crabs and dark with delight when, after waiting and watching, it saw a leg or claw emerge. A Belsk Correspondence. Mrs. Lamson was saying an affectate and tearful farewell to her husband as she was about to start for a month's visit to her old home. "Now, my dear," said Mr. Lamson in a pleasant but firm tone. "I wish you would try not to ask me for money every time you write." "Well, I will try not to," said Mrs. Lamson, wiping her eyes. "but you know, Henry, that means I shall have to write even oftener than usual." A Late Supper. A very steady and serious country gentleman had joined a newly established London west end club which offered the advantage of bedrooms for country members temporarily in town. When next the squirre visited the modern Babylon he put up for the night at the club, which had in the meantime become extremely fashionable and its hours correspondingly irregular. The squirre went to bed at an early hour, when all was quiet and decorous. If there were a racket in the night he slept through it. Next morning he came down to Baby Costs Too Much When the price paid is the mother's health and happiness. The father doesn't realize as he romps with the child what years of wifely suffering must be set against the baby's laughter. Chronic invalidism is a high price to pay for the painful joy of maternity, yet it is at such a cost that many a woman becomes a mother. Such a price is too much because it is more than nature asks. By the use of Doctor Pierce's Favorite Prescription maternity is made practically painless, and a quick convalescence is assured in almost every case. "I am pleased to give my testimony and wish I could find words strong enough to induce other sufferers to use Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription." Writes Mrs. Wesley Guy of Kempstville, Ont. For eight years after my little boy was born I suffered with female weakness, a soorexia in ovarius especially on my right side, and pain in back. Was so miserable sometimes did I paint what I was going to do. Tried several doctors but derived no benefit until I began using Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. Had only used four bottles, also some of Dr. Pierce's Antiseptic and Healing Suppositories, when I felt like another person. I recommend Dr. Pierce's medicines to all my friends. If anyone wishes to write me I will gladly answer. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription contains no alcohol and is entirely free from opium, cocaine and all other narcotics. The dealer who offers a substitute for "Favorite Prescription" does so to gain the little more profit paid on the sale of less meritorious medicines. His profit is your loss; therefore, accept no substitute. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets regulate the bowels. FACTS ABOUT ANAHEIM.

The City of Anaheim, with a population of 2500, is situated in the northern part of Orange county, in Southern California, 12 miles from the ocean, 41 miles from the foot- festal hunting occasion, and the haw was a not less fantastic three cornered affair of the epoch of Louis Quinze. The empress felt that it would not do to appear in this garb qn such an occasion. Her appearance in it might have the opposite effect upon the people from which she intended. The plan had to be given up, the empress and the prince imperial were banished and the Napoleonic empire was at an end.

The prospective heirs of the dying miser come silently into his sick room. The physician is seated by the side of the patient, a finger on his pulse.

"Small change?" he gasps. "Put-it-in-my-pocket!"—Judge. On the Sabbath. In Scotland once a drunken man met a clergyman chasing his runaway dog on Sunday. "Tammas," said the breathless clergyman. "I am sorry to see you in this condition, but whistle for my dog. He is running away." Tammas regarded the speaker with gravity and said: "Whustle? I may drink whisky, but I'll no whistle for any dog on the Lord's day." His Souvenir. "Bring any souvenirs back from your trip?" "One only, but it cost a lot." "What was it?"

My stomach was so weak and upset that I could keep nothing on it and I vomited frequently. I could not urinate without great pain and I coughed so much that my throat and lungs were raw and sore. The doctors pronounced it Bright's disease and others said it was consumption. It mattered little to me what they called it and I had no desire to live.

The census bureau has issued a bulletin on agriculture in California which we quote from extensively in another part of this issue. One of the interesting features of the report is the paragraph giving the number of farms and acres of farming lands in the five Southern California counties. The pre-eminence of Orange county is apparent: Counties No. Farms Acres. Los Angeles 6577 890,063 Orange 2388 569,436 Riverside 8340 427,097 San Bernardino 2350 219,182 San Diego 2698 809,419 But it is in the acreage of irrigated lands that Orange county takes easy precedence over the other counties of Southern California: Counties No. Farms Acres. Los Angeles 85,644 Orange 41,549 Riverside 32,947 San Bernardino 37,877 San Diego 16,023 The area of Orange county is 780 square miles; that of Los Angeles, 3880; that of Riverside, 7008; that of San Bernardino, 20,055, and that of San Diego, 8400 square miles. Orange county thus contains one-fifth the area of Los Angeles; yet its irrigated lands approach in area to one-half those of its neighbor to the north. Riverside embraces nine times its area, yet it irrigates 9000 more acres, or a fourth more than the belauded county on the east. San Bernardino is 25 times its size, yet its irrigated acres exceed those of this jumbo county by nearly 4000, approximately ten per cent. San Diego is eleven times its size, yet it irrigates 25,000 acres more than the county on the south—300 per cent is the former's irrigated area as compared with that of the latter—almost the irrigated area of San Diego and Riverside combined. Orange county possesses the finest system of irrigation, the most secure water rights, that exist in Southern California. That is what we have said many a time and oft. These figures prove it. It is the handsomest and most productive county that lies outdoors and is settling up faster than any other in the State. The service on these The time is the fastest most beautiful. The tourist car service directly to those who do a high rate of speed, bromize a little on sleep modations. The Southern Pacific conducted tourist excursions in the week at reduced points in the east, with all routes.A conduct the train to destination ready to attend to the traveler. Southern FRUITS AND FLOWERS. It never injures an orchard to mature it. Judicious annual pruning is essential with the peach. Low headed trees resist the wind better, and the fruit is more easily picked. In grafting a large tree it is best not to try to graft the whole tree in one season. Budding on certain slow growing and somewhat incongruous stock is the best way of dwarfing. In most cases the cause of moss appearing on the stems of apple and oler fruit trees is wet, cold, undrained land. The soil for roses should be rich and of such tenacity that it will hold to gether when pressed. Sand and clay mixed is good. All wood that is more than two years old should be cut out from the currants and gooseberries. They will produce more fruit, even if the vines are not so large. An Economical Mother. Small Katherine, who had been forbidden to touch the ink bottle, had accidentally spilled its contents not only all over her mother's desk, but on the rug, several chairs and her own apron. Her mother, on discovering the state of affairs, had expressed more surprise than pleasure. When the father of the family returned at night his little daughter met him at the door and asked: "Papa, how much does a bottle of ink cost?" "Oh, about 5 cents." "Five cents!" exclaimed the aggrieved youngster in a tone of deep disgust. 'And to think that mamma would make all that fuss about one little bottle of ink!'—Lippincott's. "Are You Ready? Go!" Mrs. John Peters was the mother of a family of restless children, and she found difficulty in reducing them to quiet when the moment came for asking a blessing at the table.

So her course of procedure was something in this fashion: "Alice, be still! Eddle, not another word! Maud, don't you see your father is waiting? There—now, John; now!"—New York Times. A Run of Luck. Tom—I asked old Goldman for his daughter last night. Dick—What luck? Tom—Well, it was what you might call a run of luck. I got away.—Exchange. Purely Ornamental. Charlie—How in the world, Gawge, do you manage to see with that single eyeglass of yours? Gawge—My dear fellah, I see with the other eye.—San Francisco Wasp. Peppermint Drops. To make peppermint drops take a cupful of sugar crushed fine and just moistened with boiling water; then boil five minutes; take from the fire and add cream of tartar the size of a pea; mix well and add half a teaspoonful of essence of peppermint; beat briskly until mixture whitens, then drop quickly upon white paper; have cream of tartar and essence of peppermint measured while the sugar is boiling; if it sugars before it is all dropped add a little water and boil a minute or two. Wintergreen drops are made the same way by using half a teaspoonful of essence of wintergreen. Waiting Time. Mrs. Feedum—Why do you move so lazily? Don't you know that time and tide wait for no man? Tattered Tucker—Dat may be all right about tide, lady; but I'm afeared here's a bunch o' time waltin' for me next time I git jugged.—Kansas City Journal. "The Sign of Quality."
