A TOAST.

AL drink if e will to sweetheart true
And a wife of faith undaunted;
And drink in the praise of their fetching
ways,
To charms that have long been vaunte1:
And drink to the eyes and drink TO the lips.
Aye drink, since drink We must.
But when we've done. drink everyone
To the girl the women trust.
All, drink If We will to one whose faith
Can last through years unfroublpd:
And drink to the trust that is never malred
Though mans deceit be doubled;
And drink to the songs and drink 10 the
signs
OF earth and of heaven above:
But the proudest boast is 10 drink toast
To the girl the women love.
Aye, drink to the lass who can praise tie
charms
That would steal hcr love, could they
seize him;
And drink to the lass who win snub n man
when she has no right to please him;
And drink 10 her great. warm, honest sOuI,
Aye. drink 10 her kiss and curl
For her hearts as true as the sky is blue
Who is true to another girl.

ANOTHER REMARKABLE CASE

Mrs Nettleton graphically relates the

doubtless be of interest to many of our

Mrs. Nettleton said: Il have recon-
mended Nogeler's Curative Compound for

it has proved a cure, beyond doubt. Mr.

Mrs. Nettleton is a confectioner, in the
Brighton road, where she has been cS-

and respected by all classes. Her state
ments as regards Vogeler's Curative
Compound may, therefore. be regarded
as reliable evidence of its great value.

Miss Jane Butt Winning Success.

New York. Jan. 23.-Becausc the CLAM
or of the fOotlights was more to her
than the position of teacher, even in a
university faculty, Miss Jane Butt is a
member of Otis SINNERS company,
which is presenting Francesca da Rim
ini'' ut the Victoria. And the way of
her ascent to the stage is as remarkable
as her choice of professions. When she
joined Mr.. SINNERS company her only
baggage was a handbag. and the first her
family knew of her determination to fol-
low histrionic career was when she
wrote home for clothing asking that it be
sent to New York.
Miss Butt is a daughter of Il prominent
attorney in western Wisconsin. For three
years she was an instructor in dramatic
reading and eloCution at the University
Of Wisconsin. When Mr.. SINNERS com
pany visited Madison. in September last,
Miss Butt fell victim OF the stage te-
yer, and She sought out Mr.. Skinner and
had an interview with him. lie said he
could not promise her part in his COM
pany, hut would gladly take her as one
of the extra women. Miss Butt did not
take the place then. however, deciding to
stay with the university.
When Mr.. Skinner was playing in Chi
cago during the holidays Miss Butt again
sought an interview. She accepted a
small part and resigned her position and
asked that her clothing be sent forward
as she had definitely decided that the
stage was her field in life
Miss Butt, who is handsome and
young, was seen last night.
Il don't think there is anything sensa-
tional or remarkable in what | have
DONE she said. Il am simply very
much in earnest and passionateIy fond
of the drama. and l could not resist the
opportunity to be under the direction OF
one whose ideals stand for the truest and
best in the dramatic world"

GOLD NEAR THE ARCTIC.


Important Discoveries on the Shores
OF the sea Of Okhot-k.
The Okhotsk sea fills deep indenta-
ton in the coast of northeast Asia, north
of japan and the Amur province of ST
IBERIA. 1t has always been practically
valueless. for little has been done even
to discover what resources OF. value. it
might possess. The eastern side of the
sea Is bounded by the Kamchatka PENN
sua. which is still only partly explored.
Several years ago it was reported that
the prospects for gold mining along the
bleak cast and west coasts of the Ok
h0tSk sea We're very promising. The
RUSSIAN government, therefore, decided
to investigate these reports and ascertain
whether this new region was likely 10
prove Of value TO the empire.
An expedition sent out under the COM
mand Of Mr. BogdanOwicz, has accord
ingly been engaged for three years in
exploring the east and west shores Of the
sea of Okhotsk. The nam surveys en-
brace the long stretch Of Siberian coast
between the month Of the Amur river
and the hamlet of OkhotSk and the entire
western coast of the Kamchatka PENN
sula.
The results of these long researches
have proved that gold exists in important
quantities in many of the river valleys,
particularly between the sea and the
great StdnoV9l range OF mountains eX-
tending north and south on the siberian
mainland parallel with the west side Of
the sea of Okhatsk Coarse and fine
gold were discovered beth along the larg
er streams and their small atIluents. All
the favorable reports as to the auriferods
character of this region were fully con-
tirmed
The climatic conditions. although some
what severe. present no obstacles to pros
pecting even in winter. The cold sea
son is so long, however. that mining will
be confined to about three months, which
is much shorter working period than
among the mines of the Amur region in
other parts OF eastern Siberial. Miners,
materials and supplies must be brought
by sea. but they may be easily landed
at several points along the coast The
leader of the expedition says that the
gold prospects are worthy of develop
ment and will add to an important extent
TO the empires resources in this pre-
