writer in THE Halifax Evening Mall takes
exception TO Mrs. Milecete's story OF Nova
Scotian society. published through Little Brown
& Co, under the title "a Detached Pirate
It is sufficiently hard TO have Canada pict--
ured to the alien eye as a land of eternal
SHOWS but to have one Of its chief cities rep
resented as a place where all that is necessary
for lady to enter 'the best set is an INDEFINITE
supply of smart gowns and French maid Is
really quite too bad. The Detached Pirate, VINO
gives the book its name, belongs to that con-
tingent whom a fiippant world is accustomed to
call grass widows" She is divorced, and, haV-
ing burned her bridges in England, comes TO
Halifax with a fell determination to be the
fashion" once she is beyond the skyline. on
her journey over she meets with distinguished
acquaintance of earlier and decenter days, and
is beset by fears that these will recognize her
from paper corresponding in character to that
exquisitely high class periodical known as The
Police Gazette" which exists to chronicle the
doings of ladies and gentlemen with past or
present However, her fears prove groundless,
and with the courage born of a good conscience
she dascends on Halifax. Is it usual in local
society for "a gentleman on very slight ac-
quaintan-e to express a desire to kiss lady,
as he has often thought how he would like to-?
Ours may be the point of view Of the merely
respectful and not smart" but we believe the
picture of local society given in this volume
is a calumny on il which should not be allowed
to 90 unchallenged.

Miss Beatrice Hanscom, author Of volume
Of verse called Love Laurels and Laughter" is
an enthusiastic traveller and an excellent lin
guist- When she goes on a special trip as the
one she recently took from Rome to Naples
across the Pontine marshes, and partly down the
old canal by which Horace is supposed to have
made his way to the sea, she keeps what she
calls "cameracal diary" In 1900 she spent
the summer in Munich and saw the Passion
Play at Oberammergau, where, as she tells with
keen delight, a chance acquaintance, a com
patriot in fact, asked her If she knew the plot.
Miss Hanscom's home is in Marquette.

The latest turn to the Red Box manuscript.
for the author of which John Lane advertised
has been given by a writer who speculates on
the matter in THE London Chronicle" He
makes suggestion that carries an eerie feeling
along with it. The mention Of another nys-
terry and the suggestion of the 'fncorporeal
spirit" raise hideous doubt. If red blue
green and yellow boxes are to be foisted on pub
fishers from another world, there is something
uncanny in the state Of fiction "The Chronicle"
writer says:
Students Of another mystery will not fail to
note that the period Of the story is the year
following the death Of Bacon. whose name is
mentioned in connection with the natural his
tory Of caterpillars. 1t is significant that there
is no mention Of Shakespeare. Search for
crypuogram may yield some startling results
Mr. Lane remarks, possibly with more delibera-
ton than appears on the surface, that MSS
Of novels have a tendency to wander ire
sponsibly in space. somewhat after the fashion
of comets" Is this a hint that the Red Box fell
upon the Bodley Head like a meteorite? Is the
author an tncorporeal spirit. who will take no
material interest in the American copyright
Mr. Lane has secured IN the board OF ar
bitrators including Mr.. Meredith, who await
his application II he has anything to complain
or? My own belief is that he will never be re-
vealed. There is a striking character in the
book-a hermit. convinced that he alone of all
human creatures had his right wits, and the
rest OF the world was mad Depend upon il
that is the view the author takes of his fellow
authors who run after fame and profit He de-
sres neither, and will stay smiling in obscurity.

The Value of a Vacation.

A vacation pays as much from the standpoint of character as from any other point of view. Just as ''every man is q rascal when lie is sick" so the best intentioned man in the world may be brute when he is worn out phys fcally and working and planning oI trying to do so with a fagged. weary brain. The brutal qualities in a mans nature come to the surface wh;'n he has drained his vitality to the dregs He loses his self control and his pas sions get the better of him. He does things which in his soul he condemns and says things for which he after ward hates himself. and all because he lacks physical stamina. The long strain of the year has made him so irritable and exacting that the merest trifle up- sets him. He goes all to pieces over little things which he would not even notice if he were in good bodily condi tiOn-SucceSS

LincOln'N Fees.

As rule. Abraham Lfncoln's fccs were less than those of other lawyers of his circuit. Justice Davis once re- monstrated with him and insisted that he was doing a grave injustice to his associates at the bar by charging so lit tie for his services. From 1850 to 1860 his income varied from $2.OOO to $3.OOO. and even when he was recognized as one of the ablest lawyers of the state his fee book frequently shows charges of $3. $5 and $1 for advice. although he never went into court for less than $1O. During that period he was at the height of his power and popularity. and lawyers of less standing and talent charged several times those amounts. But avarice was the least of his faults. -'"The True Abraham Lincoln"

Tn 17G2 the rage for ruffs, such as are seen on many monumental eftigies. be- gan to decline. A writer in the Lon don Chronicle of that year says of gen tlemen's dress. Their cuffs entirely cover their wrists. and only the edges of their ruffleS are to be seen."
 It is said that distaste for ruffs was first created so far back as 1913. when woman named Turner wore them on her trial for the murder by poison of Sir Thomas Overbury. The French revolution of 17S9 much intiu- enced British fashion. and the pictur- esque cooked hat and ruffies then gave way generally to round hats and smal; cuffs.
 The period of their final disuse can not be easily determined. us men of old fashioned or eccentric habits have worn ruftied shirt fronts within quite recent memory similar to those which. according to Ranches History of British Costume" originated in the seventeenth century.

THE BEST REMEDY FOR CRoUP.-This Is the season when the woman who knows the best remedies for croup Is in demand in every neighborhood. One of the most terrible things in the world Is to be awakened in the middle of the night by a whoop from one of the children. The croup remedies are almost as sure to be lost, in case of croup, as a revolver Is sure to te lost in case of burglars. There us ed to be an old-fashionef remedy for croup known as hive syrup and tulu, but some modern mothers say that Chamber lain's Cough Remedy Is better, and does not cost so much. It causes the patient to "throw up the phlegm" quicker, and gives relief in @ shorter time. Give this remedy as soon as the croupy cough ap- pears and 1t will prevent the attack It never fails and Is pleasant and safe to take.

Our own opinion. which we have fire Quently set forth. is that alcoholic bev- erages are of value in certain forms of disease and that their value depends not so much upon the alcohol. but upon the vinous ethers which these bever- ages contain or should contain. No medical man doubts that intemperance in alcohol is an appalling factor in the spread of crime, disease and poverty. and it is undoubtedly the duty of the medical profession to endeavor to stay the curse of drink by every means in 4tS power.-London Lancet

 Hoar claimed that as the question was

 this, saying, 1T contend that these
 various organizations of Christian men and women have a right to petition the senate, and that it is their duty to do so. They represent the moral thought of the country and should not
 be discouraged. Most of the signers of the petitions were members of the Daughters of the American Revolu- tion, the Women's Christian Temper ance Union and other women's and re- ligious organizations. There is a very. slight chance of forcing Senator Shoot to give up his seat.

When the butter won't come put a penny in the churn." is an old time dairy proverb. It often seems to work though no one has ever told why.
 When mothers are worried because the children do not gain strength and flesh we say give them Scott's Emul- sion.
 It is like the penny in the milk because 1t works and because there Is something astonishing about it.
 Scott's Emulsion is simply a milk of pure cod liver oil with some hypophosphites especially prepared for delicate stomachs.
 Children take to 1t naturally because they like the taste and the remedy takes just as naturally to the children be- cause@itis so perfectly adapted to their wants.
 For all weak and pale and thin children Scott's Emulsion is the most satisfactory treat ment.
