Of products in the world. On the con-
trary, it also is the principle when you
reduce the money of the world then

modities and products has to go down,
We must restore that purchasing pow

country. Put them back where they
stood when the government with its
strong arm interfered and this whole
machinery of industry will start up,
and until that is done there is no pos
Sibility of the return of general pros

of Hamilton. They believe in the doc

a few bones to the poor.
In regard to the threats of a number

said: l will say this to you, that If
every man who talked of leaving the

Steam as a Means OF Defense.

A simple and effective method of re.
pelling train robbers by discharging
jets of steam upon the attacking party
has recently been patented by William
ii. Reeve, an old tugboatman, of New
York. The inventor has enlarged
upon the plan long followed by rail-
road companies of attaching steam
Jet to locomotives to scare COWS and
other animals from the track. The
patent provides for running steam
pipes along the boiler, one on either
side from the cab forward. The ends
of the pipes are supplied with small
nozzles SO formed that jets of steam
may be projected through them dis
sance of fifty or sixty feet. 1t is
claimed that these would prevent any
person from approaching nearer than
this distance. Similar pipes could be
run to the rear of the train and be
supplied with nozzles, rendering it
impossible for any one to reach the
rear platform. Other pipes could be
arranged at the car doors, while by
the use of flexible pipes or hose the

from the windows at will. These
pipes need not be so large as to be un-
slightly or inconvenient in any way.
A further use of steam as means
of defense, the inventor claims, would
be in protecting banks against thieves.
Since banks are usually heated with
steam, the attachment could readily
be made. Small jets of steam might
be so arranged at the windows of the
tellers that they could be projected
into the faces of the robbers. These
jets might be operated by hidden
levers or by electrical attachments.
A more ambitious plan, however, is
to utilize steam in the defense of
forts, armories or arsenals. Powerful
jets of steam could be discharged at
doors and windows of arsenals. Forts
conld be protected in similar man.
ner, and as long as the supply of
steam held out, the inventor claims,
they could not possibly be carried by
assault. Scientific American.

"Mr. Peabody, who was an Ameri.

of London. His houses built for and

which every great city would do we'll

four or five years ago was surprised
and delighted to find that large num-
ber of the prizes for the best plants
went to people who were dwellers in
Mr.. Peabody's houses. That shows
what better atmosphere will do for
the working classes. Public gardens
and parks and workingmen's clubs,
think, are always conducive to tenn
perance. But people will never be
made temperate by constraint. To
secure temperance is impossible by
mere human obligations and VOWS.
Force of common sense, conscience
and spiritual influence are necessary. "

Kamloops is situated on the north

Remarkable Brand on a Horse.

Sometimes it takes about as much
ingenuity to read a brand on an ami
NAL after it is written as it does to
think it up before hand. This is es,
pecially the case when the designer
gives up letters and figures and tries
to represent some object, for the
puncher is not always strictly first
class artist. Not long since saw
horse that seemed so weighted down
with the burden of the letters orna-
menting the whole of one of his sides
that he had little strength for any
thing else. He read as follows: U. S.
I. G. S. (X)
This brand was complete record OF
his history. In his younger days he
had been bought for our cavalry serv'
ice and branded U. s.. After a while
he was worn out, and then received
the additional 1. @. for inspected
and condemned" When the Govern,
ment sold him it was recorded by an
IS, and the man that bought him
added the (X). If he is sold any more
his next owner will have to begin
branding him on the other side. The
United States army officials will not
purchase horse that already has II
brand on it. Whether it is because
they consider branding an inhuman
device, or because they do not want :,

need all the space for ther o~n
