But she kept growing poorer and v,f,rer and even the materials were hard to ceb'y. It was during a period of great •"pression on this subject that a wealthy iijnd dropped in and happened to get sight • these costume sketches. She was en- ated. "My dear," she said, "I know J's aeed money. i o w, if y ou vsrill j ust de- ijj mv costume for me in this way so that -; dressmaker can copy the pictures I'll ^7 you handsomely for it." Mrs. Gumey Laed 1 the chance with avidity, and be- ijre the season was over every one was re- -irkiDg Mrs. Cra-iua' charming costumes. Her friends began asking who designed â- ,:eir.. and in consequence Mrs. Gurney had re than she could do. Finally it dawned -.50D her that she would double her •irningj if she made up her own designs icitead of furnishing them to the dress- -ikers. There was a great outcry at -jst, but before long there was a new iresamaker in the ranks, a certain Mme. Vilentini, and the other costumers got no Kre of Mrs. Gurney's designs. Mme. Val- eitini makes dresses for the Princess of Wiiles, Princesses Louise and Beatrice and :;e Duchess Paul, and Miss winslow. Miss Grant and Miss Chamberlain, as well ii Mrs. Vanderbilt are amon? her fre- iient customers. In consequence Mrs. i.iarney has grown rich. She keeps i beautiful carriage, instead of her iskesbift gowns dresses as well as her rich .iitomers, and as she keeps Mme. Yalentini 3sd Mrs. Gurney quite separate is as great i favorite in society as ever. Lady Gordon, who had a genius for manufacturing her own boinees, observed and pondered over this uample and the result was the founding of i bsonet shop. Mrs. Focklington followed :p the dressmaking line, and the latest ad- iition to the list of titled tradespeople is lidy Mackenzie, who calls herself Mme. de ourey, and who has just " set up shop." The result is the formation of a " London "ociety of Lady Dressmakers, ' formed as a :ort of titled dressmakers' trust to prevent tile lowering of prices by too much compet- iaon. Any one wishing to enter must furn- ish testimonial of social position as well as ;f character. TJie True Statesman. Before we turn to the consideration of politics as we see them in practice, let us think for a moment of what, when properly understood, they really are. In their least comprehensive definition, politics are an art which concerns itself about the national housekeeping, about the immediate interests and worka day wants, the income and the outgo of the people. They have to deal with practical questions as they arise and grow pressing. Even on this humble plane they may well have an attraction for the finest intellects and the greatest abilities in a country where public opinion is supreme, for they can perform their functions only by persuading, convincing and thus governing the minds of men. Ttie most trivial ques- tion acquires dignity when it touches the well-being or rouses the passions of many millions. But there is a higher and wider sense in which politics may fairly be ranked as a science. When they rise to_ this level we call them statesman- ship. The statesman applies himself to the observation and recording of certain causes which lead constantly to certain effects, and is thus able to formulate general laws for the guidance of his own judgment and for the conduct of affairs. He is not so much interested in the devices by which men may be influenced as about how they ought to be influenced, not so much about how men's passions and prejudices may be util- ised for a momentary advantage to himself or his party as about how they may be hindered from doing a permanent harm. B e trains himself to discern evils in their causes that he may forewarn if he cannot prevent, and that he may not be taken unawares by the long bill of consequences they are sure to bring in, and always at the least conveni- ent moment. He seeks and finds in the moral world the weather signs of the actual world. He strives to see and know things as they really are and as they are related to each other, as they really are and therefore always must be, his vision nndeflected by the cross light of transitory circumstances, his judgment undisturbed by the clamor of excited and changeful opinion. An Unwelcome Legacy. ^The strange tale of a misanthrope's end tomes from Paris, and its ghastly humor i» quite characteristic of the people and the place. There was an old gentleman of mis Etly instincts who lived in a shaibby garret « the tob of a tenement house. 'The other aoraing he hanged himself from the rafters 5t hia abode, but previously made a will disposing of his fortune. When the house sorter learned that he had.destroyed himself tte could not refrain from uttering an ex- tlamationof satisfaction; but he soon b6gan » profess great compassion for his old lodger yhen he heard that tie had left him a legacy. de declared with tears in his eyes that -5 was a worthy person after all, and then, ^ith eager curiosity, asked the amount of â- -36 pi-operty bequeathed to him in so un- â- spected a fashion. The following missive "^M placed in his bauds " I am disgusted 'fith hfe, 80 I am quitting it. I leave to ie porter of my lodging- house my portrait »ad the rope with which I have banged pyself.' The joy of the porter can be â- ^^gined. After the Crofters. -^^xander Bagg, who has been in British J;Ommbia recently, in connection with the rofter immigration scheme, had an inter- nT*^ r^^^ Premier Greenway today and .-aered to direct the emigrants to Manitoba ^tead of British Columbia, if this Province !? ^°ter into the same agreement with ae Imperial t Government as the Pacific Province. The agreement provides that the To bf ^°^^™°}ent shall advance £150,000, ' " expended in paying passages and the Mtion of buildings on homesteads to be Ptented for the Crofters, the Province to ^y interest on this sum at the rate of 3J P" cent, for a term of years.

A little child, tired of play, had pillowed hb head on a rail and fallen asleep. The train was almost upon him when a passing stranger rushed forward and saved him from a horrible death. Perhaps you are asleep on the track, too. You are, if you are ne- glecting the biliousness and constipation which trouble you, in the hope that you will " come all right." Wake up or the train will be upon you Constipation is too often the forerunner of a general " breaking up."

What doth it profit a man if he keeps the weeds down on bis farm and allows them to grow on the highway They Pay $500, or Cure. For many years the manufacturers of Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy, who are thoroughly responsible, financially, have offered in good faith, through nearly every newspaper in the land, a standing reward of $500 for a case of nasal catarrh, no matter how bad, or of how long standing, which they cannot cure. The Remedy is sold by drnggists at only 50 cents. It is mild, soothing, cleans- ing, deodorizing, antiseptic and healing. Sometimes a noble failure serves the world as faithfully as a distinguished saccess. Comsmnption Curable. It cannot be too often impressed oh every one that the much dreaded consumption (which is only lun^ scrofula), b curable, if attended to at once, an-1 thit the primary symptoms, so often mistaken as signs of dis- eased lungs, are only symptoms of an un- healthy liver. To thb organ the system b indebted for pure blood, and to pure blood the lungs are indebted no less than to pure air tor healthy action. It the former is pol- luted, we have the hacking cough, hectic flash, ni?ht sweats, and a whole train of symptoms resembling consumption. Rouse the liver to healthy action by the use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, take healthy exercise, live in the open air, and all systoms of consumption will disappear. For weak lungs, spitting of blood, shortness of breath, chronic nasal catarrh, bronchitis, asthma, severe coughs, and kindred affec- tions, it is a most wonderful remedy.
