APPRECIATION.

In working let us give with noblest grace
The best we have, without thought of gain,
Else to our hearts there comes the saddest
That ali We've done for others has no place
In Life's reward; yet we should strive to
face
This thought nor hope for prize, nor yet
complain,
Would have and oh, believe, if we embrace
With tireless grasp all good that comes our
Our souls expand like teauteous opening
flower.
And One who knows and loves, will some
day give
What never could be had from Fortunes
dOwer,-
That inner something, which is more than
praise
And transforms work to beauty while we
live.

Had the steamer

in her deck patched. Had the steamer
struck her in any other place, the
schooner would have gone down like
shot. Couldn't be done again in a
million years." declare the old salts.
Some amusing stories are told of the
old and rolypoly steamer Charles
Houghton, that used to run in Maine
waters. One trip, coming from Port
land to Bangor, the Houghton became
lost in the fog, and her master was try
ing to feel his way into Boothbay Har-
Dor. After floundering around for
! hours, and footing the whistle till every
body had the earache, the people in the
steamers pilot house caught the sound
of voices and stopped to listen. Pres
emily out of the fog doomed a big lob
ster boat, and the master hailed the
fisherman.
"Ahoy, the boat! Can you give me
the course into Boothbay?"
A loud guffaw was the only response,
and the fisherman fairly roared with
merriment, while the master OF The
steamer, mad all through, swore large
oaths at them and asked IT they were
NO, we amt crazy, cap'n," respond
ed the lobstermen, "but we jest had to
laff."
"Well how about the course into
Boothbay?" demanded the captain.
The master of the smack Quoted an
other burst of laughter, and replied,
with aggravating deliberations:
"Wa-al, yew jest turn them wheels O
your steamboat over oncet or tWlcet a.
gin an yew'll hit the wharf to Booth
bay. Yew're Almost thar now''
1t was fact that the Charles Hough-
ton had blundered into Boothbay with
out her people knowing where they We're
On another occasion the Houghton,
while coming up the Penobscot River,
ran into pink ey-stern schooner a few
miles below the city, staving a hole in
the schooner's stern and wettlng down
cargo of 5000 bushels of corn. The
funny part of it was that the schooner
was ashore at the time, on a sawdust
knoll that had formed on sharp ledge,
and if she had not been there the steam
er would have hit the ledge, and going
as she was at the rate of eight or ten
knots, would undoubtedly have become
total wreck. The owners of the
steamer had to pay for the spoiled car
GO of corn, but they never kicked, real
izing that their loss might have been
greater.

THE INVASION OF CANADA.

The exodus of farmers from the Uni
ted States to Manitoba and Alberta, ac-
cording to official reports, is increasing.
The steady high price of beef, the OPP
portunity to take up large tracts OF
cheap land, and the gradual decline Of
the productiveness of wheat lands in
the Northwest are believed to be causes
for this peculiar movement.
At the same time, there is going on
steady movement of farmers from New
England and the Middle States to Can
ada, where recent successes in fruit
raising have attracted attention. Can
ada has entered into the shipment OF
apples, plums and peaches to Europe
on large scale.
Gen. Corbin, in speaking OF the NIL
grafton of our farmers to the British
possessions, gives the following account
of what came under his observation
during his recent tour of western mill
tary posts:
''Thoughtful persons most must be
impressed by the great army OF settlers
which is going into the Northwest Ter
ritorv from the United States. While |
was travelling on the Northern Pacific
last week a conductor told me he had
taken 500 American settlers into Can
ada the day before, and said it was
nothing unusual for that number to
cross the Canadian line on trains from
the United States. This movement has
been going on for several years, and
will continue.
cit is interesting to consider what
changes the settlement of western Can
ada by American farmers will bring
about. Farmers from Iowa, illinois,
Indiana, Minnesota, North Dakota,
South Dakota and Nebraska, all OF
them Americans of the sturdiest type,
are iocking into the new country. They
are selling their high priced lands in the
United States and buying cheap LANDS
III the new country.
"Settlers are living in tents along the
railway lines. 1t is impossible to build
houses fast enough to accommodate
them. In many places whole districts
are taken up by American farmers:
The country is being Americanized at
a rapid rate. In 1876 was through the
territory which now makes up the Da-
kotas and Montana. We had to have
guides to find our way through the
country. Now, that territory has been
converted into one great wheat field,
and farmhouses are scattered all over
it, Persons who have not travelled
through the great Northwest have no
idea of the vast development which IS
going on there"

Oil and Candles.

The Standard Oil Company added
$40, 600, 900 to its yearly income last
week by arbitrarily increasing the
price of refined kerosene oil one cent
per gallon throughout the United
States. At the same time it added
another million to its income by in
creasing the price Of paraffine candles
one cent pound.
Within three years the wholesale
price of kerosene oil has been advanced
by the Standard Oil Company from s
1-2 cents to 10 IL cents, the new sched-
ule price. The price of paraffine can
dies has in the same period increased
from IL cents pound to ID IL cents
a pound.

Paine'SC Celery
Compound
Permanently Cures Sick and
Nervous Headaches that
Make Life Miserable.

Sick and nervous headaches are amongst
the worst ills of life. The man or woman who
is subject to headache at irregular intervals,
goes through life bearing load of misery
and wretchedness that is terrible to think
of.
Headaches as rule, result from dis
ordered condition of the nervous system.
Mental excitement, loss of sleep, bodily
fatigue, and disordered digestion are exciting
causes. When the brain becomes tired and
debilitated, the whole nervous system is weak
ened, and headaches result. If the liver is
sluggish, the kidneys inactive, and digestion
deranged, headaches invariably follow. To
cure and prevent headache, the nervous sys-
tenn must be strengthened and vitalized.
The most persistent cases Of headache, nervous
feebleness, and sleeplessness, are permanently
cured by Paine's Celery Compound; it is the
great reconstructant of the nervous system.
Mrs. Henry Westrick, ST. Clair, Mich, tells
of her release from suffering as follows:-
"I have been troubled with dyspepsia and
sick headache for number of years. About
every week l would have bad spell of sick
headache, but since began using Paine's
Celery Compound, my dyspepsia is gone, and
l do not have any more headaches. feel
better than l have for years.
