Miss Kathleen King told of a visit

Norman Brown spoke of the coral

THE JUBILEE.

Tomorrow is the day set apart
for the festivities in celebration of
Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee
and all true Britons will do their
best to entertain their friends and
enjoy themselves. The festivities
open with ball this evening and
tomorrow will be devoted to sports
of all kinds. But while duly cele-
brating the event in gaiety and good
will, and impressing upon the minds
of the children the memory of the
event, more permanent memorial
is not forgotten.
1t is an excellent idea to impress
the minds of the children with the
importance of the day. Sixty years
from now many of them will be
alive and will hand down to anoth-
er generation the memory of a fes-
tival which was an event in their
lives.
1t is more excellent idea to es-
tablish memorial of lasting char
acter which will keep the memory
of Victoria living in the sick and
the wretched, as OF one who inspir-

CURRENCY COMMISSION.

When the tariff bill is passed,
there will yet remain for Congress
the matter of passing an act author
izing the President to appoint a
currency commission ito make an
investigation and report recommen-
dations for the improvement of the
currency system. The object is to
have the commission go to work
during the recess and be all ready
to report at the regular session in
December.
The point of disagreement in the
Congress will be as to the appoint
of the commission. The Republi-
can party's intention is to have the
President appoint all the members
of the commission, while the Con-
gressional opposition will insist up
on the silver representatives being
chosen by their own party in the
House and Senate.
The question Of currency will I'M
doubtedly give rise to some bitter
debates. The silver men are so
thoroughly imbued with the truth
Of their ideas and are backed up by
such an army of believers, that
when the opportunity comes for
airing their views, there is bound
to be considerable amount of bit
terness and heat evolved. From
appearances, therefore, it does not
seem as if the extra session is
likely TO close rs early as was first
supposed. The summer heat may
have, for once, a soothing effect,
and Congress may hurry through
at the last i'll order to get away to
the sea or the mountains. But the
question before Congress is drawn
on such strong partisan lines, and
the various representatives are so
pledged to their constituents that
there will be very little chance OF
give and take. And yet, without
in some measure yielding to the op-
position, it is very doubtful if the
plan for the commission can be car
ried through.

WHAT A WOMAN CAN DO.

She can rumple up fifty dollars
worth of dress goods, and buy reel
of thread, with an order to have it de-
livered four miles away, in a style
that will transfx the proprietor of
the establishment with admiration.
She can-but what's the use? A wo-
man can do anything or everything,
and do it well. She can do more in a
minute than man can in an hour,
and do it better. She can make the
alleged lords of creation bow down to
her own sweet will, and they will
never know it. Yes, and more than
that, she can tell good beer from bad.
That's why all sensible women insist
on having Sra err" Beer. They know
it's the healthiest and best bottled
beer to be had. Phone 1888.
