THE ORUIDs OF PARIS.
faded Denisens of the Gay Capital
Have a New Fad,

There have been many curious or
ders, seCts or Confraternities in Paris
from time to time, such as the Rosi-
crucians Some women have now
been founding the order of Druid
ness" and are Teviving the old Celtic
mysteries and ceremonies TO a re-
markable extent. The movement or
iginated with two Parisiennes, who,
when they were not wearing the long
flowing white robes of their Order,
dress in the most ravishing twentieth
century manner. The DTuidesses
have also Druids, who accompany
them to the Forest of Fontainebleau,
there to celebrate their rites. At the
end of each month Druids, and espe-
cially Druidesses, march by moonlight
when there is moonlight, through the
forest, singing hymns to Nature, and
addressing poetical invoCations to the
moon, the rocks, the streams and the
trees. On the last night of December
the Druidesses and their friends went
to Fontainebleau Forest there to pluck
the miseltoe, or, rather to bring it
down with golden bill-hooks. The sac
red plant was carefully gathered in
a white cloth, all present singing
hymns in it's praise.

Wanted to Know the Cost.

Joseph Arthur, commonly known as
Joe" has a small nephew Of whom
he is very fond. The boy was brought
up in the country, and only came to
town a few days ago, says the New
York Tribune. Uncle Joe took him
to an apartment house in Hath St.
While Uncle Joe went in to see a
friend for a moment he left the boy
in the hall watching the elevator go
up and down. The child never had
seen an elevator before and each
time 1t went UP he followed It with
his eyes, wondering why the persons
who went up didn't come down. At
last the elevator boy, no was much
amused, said: Sonny, don't you want
a rider" "Yes," said the child, "if 1t
won't cost too much"

Old Salt Knew a Thing or Two About
Marketing in Philadelphia.
Capt. Frederick M. Passow, COM
manding the American liner st.
Louis, is as clever an old salt as ever
sailed the briny deep" When on
shore he lives in Philadelphia and on
such rare occasions takes upon him
self the duty of attending to the fam
lily marketing. A butcher at the Ter
minal market relates this incident of
his shrewdness:
HE came here one morning." said
the butcher, after ducks. He wasn't
known here then, and to a poultry
dealer he said:
How many ducks have you got
altogether"
"'only twelve, sir the dealer
answered.
well, I'll tell you; I'm board
ing house keeper and l want you to
pick out for me the nine toughest
ducks of the lot
1.-THE dealer, with an affable and
pleased smile, did this, laying the
nine tough ducks in one pile on his
right and the three remaining tender
ones in another pile on his left.
ION the latter Captain Passow laid
his hand.

just take these"

Speedily Cured by CutiGura
When All Else Falls.

The agouizing itching and burning Of
the skin, as in Eczema; the frightful

and crusting of the scalp, as in scaled

almost superhuman virtues to success
fully cope with them. That Cuticura
Soap, Ointment and Resolvent are such
stands proven beyond all doubt. No
statement is made regarding them that
is not justified by the strongest evil
dence The purity and sweetness, the
power to afford immediate relief, the
certainty of speedy and permanent cure,
the absolute safety and great economy,
have made them the standard skin
cures, blood purifiers and humOur reme-
dies OF the civilized world.

surface of crusts and scales and soften
the thickened cutlcle. Dry, without

NEW BRAND OF COWBOY.

Ranges Of British Columbia.


Ranges Of British Columbia.
81 notice that the young men who
view the far West from a car window
and then write 1t up for the maya
zines, say that the cattle range Is a
thing of the past" said the man from
Montana. They also tell us that
the always picturesque cowboy is
thing of the past, and his successor
is little more than a farmland. More
they tell US is that the small ranch
has taken up all the land, and that
the only place in the world where one
could find a big cattle range Is in
Australia or on the steppes Of ST.
IBERIA.
These young fellows may write
very nicely, but they are off on their
it was in the heyday of the cattle
business by going up into British
Columbia. Here you can find ranges
such as Wyoming, Texas or Montana
never boosted And the cowboy is
there, too, just as picturesque, and, If
anything, a little more tough than he
was when the states formed his
stamping ground. In fact, there are
many bad citizens punching cows in
the basins north of the Montana line.
Some Of them found the climate more
healthy, as the authorities of the
communities that wanted them re-
garded extradition from the Dominion
as a trifle expensive.

Now, want to give you that tip
on the market. There are several
reasons why It isn't safe for you to
trade on Change just now, but the
particular one is that Graham & Co.
will fire you If you do. Trading on
margin is a good deal like padding
around the edge of the old swimming
but before a fellow knows it he has
stepped off the edge into deep water.
The wheat pit is only thirty feet
across, but it reaches clear down to
He'll. And trading on margins means
trading on the ragged edge of moth
ing. When a man buys, he's buy
ing something that the other fellow
hasn't got. When a man sells. he's
selling something that he hasn't got.
And it's been my experience that the
net profit on nothing is nit. When
I Spectator wins he don't stop till
he loses, and when he loses he can't
stop till he wins.
You have been in the packing bust
ness long enough now to know that ii
takes a bull only thirty seconds to
lose his hide; and if you'll believe me
when | tell you that they can skin
bear just as quick on Change, you
won't have a Board Of Trade Indian
using your pelt for a rug during the
long winter months.
Because you are the son of a pork
no Il f,D1y l,aF
a little more than the next fellow
about paper pork. There's nothing
in 1t. The poorest men on earth are
the relations of millionaires. When
| sell futures on Change, they're
against hogs that are travelling into
dry salt at the the rate of one a sec
ond, and if the market gees up on me
I've got the solid meat to deliver.
But, if you lose, the only part of the
hog which you can deliver is the
squeal.
| wouldn't bear down so hard on
this matter If money was the only
thing that a fellow could lose on
Change. But if a clerk sells pork,
and the market goes down, he's
mighty apt TO get a lot of ideas with
holes in them and bad habits as the
small change in his profits. And if
the market goes up, he's likely to go
short his self-respect to win back his
money.
| dwell a little on this matter of
speculation because you've got to live
next door to the Board of Trade all
your life, and it's a safe thing to
know something about a neighbours
dogs before you try to pat them.
Sure Things, Straight Tips and Dead
Cinches will come running out to
meet you, wagging their tails and
looking as innocent as If they hadn't
just killed lamb, but they'll bite.
The only safe road to follow in specu-
lation leads straight away from the
Board of Trade on the dead run.
OF course the Board of Trade, and
every other commercial exchange
have their legitimate uses, but all you
need to know just now is that specu-
lation by a fellow who never owns
more pork at time than he sees
on his breakfast plate isn't one of
them. When you become a packer
you may go on Change as a trader;
until then you can go there only as a
