Every parent who permits his Or her child
to smoke cigarettes conntenances that which
is quite likely to prove the death of the lat
ter. If You cannot prevent the boy smok-
ing, counsel him against the danger in
cigarettes. At Johnstown, Pennsylvania,
Stephen Mcclellan, who has smoked cigar
cites for several years, has become insane.
He is but twenty-one years of age. Two
boys died suddenly near Milwaukee, after
excessive smoking of cigarettes. Their
stomachs were subjected to medical anal
discovered.
The symptoms Indicated death by this
poisoning substance, combined with nioo-
tine and tie arseulcal solution used in pre-
parlng paper and wrapper for the ordinary
cigarette. These are the instances brought
to light in only one day. Will parents heed
the warning2-Charleston W. Vo) Star.

WHY THIS HITCH
In the Coming Of the Canadians
to Washington
To Discuss the Question of a
Reciprocity Treaty?

Believed to BE Due to a Refusal of
Newfoundland to Jointly Negotiate
with the Dominion for Closer CONNER
cial Relations with the Unite states.
Canadian Cabinet Meeting to he Held.
OTTAWA, Ont, Harch n. There has
evidently been some hitch in the pro.
jected trip of 81 harles Topper and
his colleagues to Washington, and it is
believed that 1t is TO the refusal Of New
foundland to joi thy negotiate wi h
Canada for reciprocity with the United
States that the delay may be attributed.
1t is lea ned, however from a reliable
quarter that q meeting Of the cabinet is
to be held to discuss the matter, when
some definite action may be decided
upon. Sir Cha les view Of what reel
procity should be and the limits TO
which the Dominion government Is pre-
pared to Join the negotiations are some
what at variance Sir Charles idea is
more liberal in its scope and application
than the view of his colleag les ; in
Charles, during the late campaign while
in Nova Scotia assured the electors of
that province that whatever arrange
ment might be made for the lecip. ocal
exchange of commodities between Can
ada and the United States, there would
be no modification in the duty imposed
upon bituminous coal imported from
the United States 1t j. learned that
this assurance was given upon his own
responsibility and that several members
of the cabinet. especially those from
Ontario, are opposed to any such ar

Dressmaking is "a noble art In the pur-
ity Of its ideas it is a type of the highest
culture. Ladies should go into it, for it
requires the aesthetic instinct and the edu-
Gated taste, and these belong only to the
higher and more refined temperament.
The most beautiful dress we have ever had
has been the Greek dress, and in some pc
RODS, the Roman; that is, according to
real art But such dress is not available
for our climate with its abrupt transitions
from heat to cold, nor for our business vo-
cations and conventional usages. The art
ist or dressmaker of the future must study
the laws governing dress as it was in those
days, and at the same time take into con
sidcraton adaptations to climatic and So
cial conditions.
Woman, particularly when she is beauti-
full, is the most attractive being in the
world, and more pains should be taken to
drapc and dress her than with almost any
other branch of art. do not think that
dressmaking has ever revealed the aesthetic
beauty that is possible, We have had
style and fashion, but we have never had
what | regard us the highest forms of art
in dress, and we never can have until such
time as it is regarded as fine art, in
stead of now as II trade, and until the time
shall come when women or men who are
dressmakers shall be treated with the same
consideration, socially or otherwise, as we
today treat IA painter or a sculptOr.-Mrs.

Bashful BridegroOms.

Ministers declare that in nine cases out
of ten brides are much more self possessed
than are bridegrooms when the marriage
ceremony is being performed.
A shy, modest looking little creature
ROBBED in white will stand perfectly erect,
looking the minister calmly and squarey
in the eye, without for an instant losing
her self possession, while the big, blunt six
footer Of bridegroom by her side is pale,
nervous and trembling,
One stalwart bridegroom was so dazed
and overcome that he held out one of his
own fingers for the ring when the minister
said with this ring | thee we'd"
Another bridegroom lost his head to such
degree that when it came time for him to
say, 81, Horace, take thee, Annie, TO be my
lawful welded wife, 3" he said in an unnat-
urally loud tone, 81, Annie, take thee,
Horace, to be my lawful welded Wife"
and when the time came for him TO intro
duce his briGe to some of his friends who
had not yet seen her he did it by saying
awllWardly, "Ah, er--Miss Carter, this is
my wife, Miss Barton,' calling her by her
maiden name.

The Cause OF Poor Health

Is often found in the neglect of ones
own self. A light cold or slight head
ache is treated as not requiring much
attention.; the assumption being that
they will soon pass of, and it is only
when a case of full-hedged sickness de-
velops Itself that the consequences Of
that neglect are fully realized. As a
preventive and positive cure for Conghs
Colds, Hoarseness, Splitting OF blood,
Asthma, Pains in the Chest and first
stages Of consumption, use Ellerts Ex-
tract of Tar and Wild Cherry, and for
sick Headache, Torpid Liver, Dys-

Complaints, use Eilert's Daylight Liver
Pills. Both are guaranteed.
