confident these conditions, added to the
early passage OF the new tariff bill, will
result In large increase Of the cash bal

Teaching Children.

The new system of education by which

many obvious advantages, very real dan

were at least free from. However wear1-

was certainly no danger of overstimula
ton or undue tension of the brain. In these
days of high pressure, when every possible
effort is made to excite intelligent interest

produce kind of mental excitement which
is extremely hurtful both mentally and

SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE.
The New Gold Land.

WESTERN AUSTRALIA BECOMING THE EQUAL
OF CALIFORNIA IN 1894 FIELD THAT NOW
PROMISES TO BE ANOTHER ELDoRADo -
LETTER FROM PARKWAY COUNTRY.
PERTH, West Australia, Jan. 81 While
the rest of Australasia and it would seem
the rest of the commercial world are suffer
Ing from the most depressing business stag
nation in history, the comparatively I'M
known colony of West Australia is fairly
booming with prosperity such as distin-
guished the early years after the discovery
of gold in California
The first settlement in West Australia
was made in 1926, but its remoteness from
lines Of travel and the general sterlity of
the country, added to the fact that better
farming land was to be found in more &C
cessible parts Of this island continent, kept
immigration away. Now people-principal-
ly men-are swarming to this country by the
tens of thousands, and all because of the
new goldfelds recently discovered back
200 to 800 miles from the coast.
Within the past eight months the popu.
lation of West Australia has leaped from
10000 to over 100000, and it looks as if the
human food had only begun. The idle
throngs in the other Austraasian colonies
have no doubt much to do with this state
Of affairs, but the stories of sudden for
tunes one hears in this city would unsettle
the most prosperous community in the
world If they heard them.
Up to one year ago the principal products
of this colony were wool and kari gum
blocks, used for paving the streets of Mel
bourne, Sydney and other Australian cities
Gold had been found before this in small
quantities, but water being scarce and 9TH
er fields more profitable they were never
worked. Nine months ago two miners
named Folsom and Smith, who had had ex-
perience in California, came in, bringing
with them on a pack horse about 800
ounces, or SIC, 900 worth, of free gold These
men tried, without success, to hide their
find" AS soon as they had sold out their
bullion they bought fresh horses, laid in
supplies and tools for surface work and
started back to the arid bush again.
Folsom and Smith left town in the night,
but at daylight the next morning they dis
covered that they were being followed by
scores Of men equipped like themselves. In
this case necessity became virtue, and so
the discoveries of the new fields piloted
their unwelcome companions to what prom
Uses to be a new Eldorado.
The contagion of the gold fever was too

seems to me that this goldfeld is destined

Where eight months ago there were only
about 1000 men at work today there are
more than 10000, and it would seem that
the human flood has but set in.
But, unlike California or our other gold
states in America, the auriferous area here
rovers tens of thousands Of square miles
and is practically unlimited. The wealth
that lies still farther back in the desert is a
subject for wild speculation, but there is
every reason to believe that 1t is equally

Various Notes.
A Sure Cure.

1t is told of Hannah More that she had
good way of managing talebearers 1t
Is said that whenever she was told any
thing derogatory to another her invariable
reply was, Come, we will go and ask if
this be true" The effect was sometimes
ludicrously painful. The talebearer was
taken aback, stammered out qualifico-
ton or begged that no notice might be
taken of the statement. But the good lady
was memorable. Off she took the scandal
monger to the scandalized to make inquiry
and compare accounts. 1t is not likely
that anybody ever second time ventured
to repeat a gossipy story to Hannah More
One would think her method of treatment
would be sure cure for scandal. -Har-

Children's Shoes,

Shoes for children should be selected
with more regard for comfort than service.
good fit docs not imply largeness. There
should be an excess of sole leather in length
but sufficient snugness in the quarters to
prevent slipping. The toes need and must
have room, hut by having the heel, ankle
and arch snugly dressed the foot gets sup
port and power to resist fatigue. Athletes
insist on these points in starting for a
walk or race. Parents make a mistake in
ordering wider when longer shoes are re-
quired. Until they stop growing children
need half size longer every time they get a
pair of shoes.-Shoe and Leather journal.

A new DISEASE.
People who are wearing away because
they cannot digest their food.
They eat heartily, but lhslr food does them DO gnOd

If you speak to your acauaintances Won
will too often find some one who saws TO
you: My food does me no good. l have
good, even a voracious appetite. / eat
plenty and enjoy what eat, but / am as
thln as a rail. My stomach pains me after
meals; get no flesh or strength from what
/ eat"
This is not exactly new disease. 1t is
new because doctors are beginning to give
1t attention. They are recognizing that at
the door OF this disease may be laid the
blame for most of the dangerous scknesses
which decimate the human race.
Consumption, Dyspepsia, Rheumatism,
Diabetes, Scrofula; all these, and many
other diseases, could be prevented or cured
II food could be found that would "do
good"
Doctors have recognized that in Paskola
they have such food. Made according to
scientific principles, of the purest starch
foods (the Strengthening, fatteuing foods,)
pre-digested, it is perhaps the only food
which will =" do good to the most delicate
stomach and to the sickest dyspeptic.
Paskola is not medicine. 1t is an aid to
medicine. 1t often does away with the
need for medicine.

Dramatic Funeral Ceremony.

In the deadroom of the Medico-C Chi
rurgical hospital recently strange
and dramatic ceremony took place
The occasion was the observance of
the last rites and ceremonies by the
crew of Lascars of the steamship
Lanark over the body of one of their
shipmates, who died in the hospital
The body had as usual been prepared
for the undertaken by the hospital
staff soon after death, and the body
was removed from the ward to the
deadroom. AS soon as the steam
ship crew learned of the death of
their countryman they all presented
themselves at the hospital and asked
to see the body.
The scene that followed was an
impressive one. The dimly lighted
room, the still form lying on the ia
BILE surrounded by dozen or more
of his Borrowing people, with strange
costumes, dark, handsome features
and pointed boards formed a memor-
able picture. AS the men stood with
bowed heads and clasped hands and
muttered their prayers to. Allah,
those who witnessed the scene were
filled with emotions of respect and
borrow for those strange people, far
away from their sunny tropical home
among strangers.
They requested bountiful supply
Of warm water and soap and 20
yards of clean new linen. This be-
ing provided they reverently re-
moved the winding sheet. Every
time their hands came in contact
with the body they offered a prayer
in concert. Then they removed
their own shoes and stockings and
washed their feet and ears and nos
trils. After this they began the alb
luton of their late comrade, pour
ing the water over the head and face
of the dead man. The entire body
was thoroughly cleansed, the men
touching it lovingly and reverently.
The new linen having been pre-
pared by one of their number and
the body having been dried the sail
ors requested another table, the one
in use being thought contaminated
by the water. This was provided.
The shroud was placed upon it and
sprinkled with camphor. Then the
body was gently lifted and laid on
the shroud while all offered UP
prayers in concert. 1t was rapidly
enveloped in the winding sheet and
strict instructions were given in
broken English and by signs to those
of the hospital staff present not to
touch it. The sailors then formed in
line, one who seemed to be the lead
er standing alone, the others stand
ing behind in threes and tours.
Turning their faces to the east and
raising their hands above their heads
they solemnly committed their COM
rade to Allah's care.
No Christian can touch the body
after performing this rite, so the Las.
cars presented themselves at the hos
pital again the next morning and
placed the body within the coffin

Dress and Complexion,

Every woman who is ambitious to look
her best should have list for private con-
sultation of trying colors. Each complex
lon has its best and it's worst possibilities.
Most persons can wear dark blue or green,
for instance, but very few can wear dark
red. 1t is wise to accept ones limitations
and dress within them. If peacock blue is
unbecoming, and it usually is, why should

Do not keep the alabaster boxes of your
love and tenderness sealed up until your
friends are dead, but fill their lives with
sweetness. Speak approving and cheering
words while their ears can hear them and
while their hearts can be thrilled and
made happier by them. The kind things
you will say after they are gone say before
they go. The flowers you mean to send

Running Away from Mamma.

Running away from mamma,
Bareheaded up the street,
Kicking the dust into yellow smoke
With little rogush feet.
Tossing 1t over his clean white dress
Into his stocking heels,
Checking the little wooden horse
That trundles along on wheels.
Dreaming away with wide b'ue eyes,
And specializing why
God won't give him the golden ball
That drops in the quivering sky.
What is the use Of that pretty pink cloud.
Sailing away so high,
If he can have ride in it?
And it's no use to try.
If that woman grew with glasses on
If this house Is papa's;
Why that nice red COW won't talk to him
Looking across the bars.
Into the neighbors gates and doors,
Under their cherry trees,
Into mischief and out again,
Wherever he may please.
Wandering at last to the old church steps.
Little horse and all,
Climbing up laborlously-
Too bad If he should fall
Pushing in with dimpled hands
The great doors strong and tall,
Letting the warm, sweet summer light
Slide down the Swallowed wall
Standing still In the solemn hush
OF chancel, nave and dome,
Thinking it is prettier
Than the sitting room at home.
Not bit afraid, ah no, indeed,
OF the shadows vast and dim.
Quite at home, and sure 1t was made
All on purpose for him.
The old, old story comes up to me
Written so long ago,
About the heavenly temple.
Where you and must go.
The beautiful waiting temple,
That has no room for sin
Something about little child
And the way Of entering in.
