Coal in Sweden.

Two or three years ago the Domin-
ion Coal company, of Sydney, N. s.,
shipped a cargo Of coal to Sweden to
be used as an experiment on govern
ment railways. The experiment proved
such big success that the company
now ships some $4,000 or 10000 tons
annually for general consumption in
Sweden. This year the company is to
make further experiment in the for
eign market by sending some Of its
product to Mexico to be tested on the
government railway there.

CHAPTER III.
THE WILD MAN.

The wilderness has many moods
grave, gay, grand and mysterious.
The morning melody of the birds in
spring, the laughter of brooks deep
hidden in impossible thickets, the
loud-voiced rapids leaping down rock
walled gorges, the fir-clad mountains
that shut one in, the bending spruce
and cedar mirrored in placid lakes
each and all have their own mood and
leave their own particular impress on
ones feelings.
Full well Martin Frisbie knew all
wilderness moods, for he had met
them many times. Yet, at the mo-
ment he saw this vanishing appari-
ton, not to save all his wealth could

and that's what beats me-
For q long time the two watched
each other. listening to the faint voice
OF the stream, alert and keen fest any

spoke.
Levi" he said, I'VE have spent
many weeks in, this wilderness to-
gether, and know I can trust you.
What saw Is mystery, and we may
solve 1t and we may not, but until we
do. neither the doctor nor Jean must
know we have been watched by this
strange creature. AS I told you, it's
my friends first visit to the woods,
and timid as he Is, If once he learned
what saw, no power could keep him
here longer than it would take to get

he saw a rock or stump, and you must

Martin, "and you may as we'll"

fuel on the fire and, taking Martins

When Martin, awakened by the first
notes OF the inevitable bird concert,
emerged from the tent, the fire was
still smouldering, and Levi rolled in
his blanket fast asleep beside it.
Without awakening him he picked up
the rifle and carefully entered the old
log road. Step by step he followed it,

watching for signs of man or beast,

WELL DRESSED WOMEN.

"Ah! you all look like flowers" said
an old naval officer as he approached
a group of women gathered to well
come him. He had been exlled on a
lonely and unwholesome station for
eighteen months, and those to whom
he spoke were daintily clad in simple
summer gowns suited to their tropi-
cal home.

Evening Post, it seems to me should we
all strive to look as fresh, as graceful,
as distinctively wearing what suits our
special type, as harmonious with our
surroundings. Our clothing a part of

High Pressure Days.

Men and women alike have to work
incessantly with brain and hand to
hold their own nowadays. Never were
the demands of business, the wants of
the family, the requirements of society,
more numerous. The first effect of the
praiseworthy effort to keep up with
all these things is commonly seen in
weakened or debilitated condition of
the nervous system, which results in
dyspepsia, defective nutrition OF both
body and brain, and in extreme cases
in complete nervous prostration. 1t is
clearly seen that what is needed is
what will sustain the system, give Wig
or and tone to the nerves, and keep
the digestive and assimilative func-
lions healthy and active. From person
al knowledge, we can recommend
Hoods Sarsaparilla for this purpose.
1t acts on all the vital organs, builds
UP the whole system, and fits men and
women for these high pressure days

THE GERMAN HOUSEWIFE.

Philadelphia women, says the Led
ger of that city, through the organi-
cation of the Household Registry Blu
reau, are attempting to solve the serv-
ant-girl question. In Germany domes
tic relations are so easy that the house
hold servants have never doomed
threateningly upon the national hori-
zon as a question" or a problem"
Some of the German women have set
tied the matter in their own way, as
related in the Queen by an English
tourist.
'At last we settled down in a quaint
old town, near some well-known noun
tains, and took up our abode at a
good, respectable hotel, although not a
fashionable one. From certain sani-
tary and economic reasons, we always
dined at the o'clock table d'hote in
stead of the later and smarter din
nar.
Just before the dinner was served.
to my great establishment, quite a
number of neatly dressed people came
in from the town and calmly sat down
at the end of the long table or at
some of the smaller ones. l was I'M
willing to stare at them, although my
curiosity was fully aroused, and l soon
found that they were whole families,
following, apparently, their usual Gus
tom, of dining at the / o'clock table
d'hote. l pondered on the matter, and
came to the wise conclusion that
thereby much saving of time, money
and temper was effected.
THE mothers We're dressed in a
more matronly style than the girls,
but all had the most deliberately plait-
ed hair. They all looked cool, calm
and comfortable. Especially placid
were the wives and mothers. You see,
they had not TO stand over a hot fire
or direct an ignorant servant. They
had not to worry as to how the dinner
would turn out so as to give full sat
isfaction TO their husbands. There
were no dirty dishes or greasy sauce
pans to be reckoned with after the
meal was ended.
mo, the hotel dinners were always
beautifully cooked and served UP pref
tily, with plenty of bright flowers. The
charge was particularly moderate,
each family paying, of course, accord
ing to their number. The whole pro-
ceeding seemed a very comfortable, or
binary, everyday matter, and con-
venient to all parties.
II found myself from day to day TAX
ing a deep and growing interest in
these diners-out, and before long knew
some of them in their homes, and en-
tirely realized what boon these no
tel dinners We're to the German wives
and mothers. Surely some such plan
adopted in England would go a long
way toward solving the vexed servant
question"

DINING OUT FOR A LIVING.

Many people attend elaborate dinner
parties at the houses of fashionable
and wealthy people because, for various
reasons, they like the dinners they get
there. There are others, says Cassers
Journal, who attend the same dinners
for much different reason; it is their
livelihood.
These persons form a class of So
ciety that is not much talked about for
the simple reason that it would not do
for ii to attract too much attention;
yet this class is in its way quite essen
tisl to the success OF many dinner
parties. 1t comprises few people, men
for the most part, OF good family and
training, who are of well-polished man.

a rare and happy power of leading
other conversational billiards on in such
manner as to make them talk, and
to get all that is convesationally best
out of them.
Thus such men can make the most

AMERICAN MEN AS HUSBANDS

The London Telegraph says that an
American young man does not as a
rule look forward to marriage nor pre-
pare for it by saving any considerable
Iiortion of his ante-nuDtial income.
When he marries, it is usually on short
notice and because he has fallen very
desperately in love with some one
and cannot find it in his heart to wait
until cold caution declares the venture
advisabl Even when an engagement
is a long one he usually squanders
so much on gifts and entertainments
for his fiance that there is only very
moderate amount to begin housekeep-
ing on. Thus, before his marriage the
young American of the middle class
begins to give evidence of what Is to
be his chief national charact eristic as
husband-his unfailing, unselfish and
almost improvident generosity.
The middle class husband in
America rarely interferes with the af-
fairs of the household. He hardly
knows the cost of staple articles OF
food. AS a rule he does not make his
wife regular allowance, either for
housekeeping or personal expenses, but
gives her as much as he can spare,
freely, but with a lack of system that
is not conducive to the best outlay of
their income.
The young American husband is
also very indulgent to his wife's fond
ness for fine clothes. He would far
rather have an extravaganza wife than
dowdy one, and although he grum-
bles occasionally at millinery bill,
in reality he glories in the Respondent
appearance of his wife in her fine
feathers. The American husband is
rare who does not concede his wifes
right to expend a much larger sum
with her dressnIaker than he does
with his tailor. Indeed. he often
leaves his tailor altogether and cheer
fully repairs to the ready-made cloth
ing house in order that his wife may
have more money for extravagant
