She says that when she took It her only idea was to get n good sized studio without paying rent She procured a corner apartment, with front room facing north for herself. and rooms facing east all along the side, which she purposed to let Rut unfurnished rooms were not so easily disposed of as she had ina gined. and when two whole weeks had passed without bring
 ing her single lodger she sat down and did some hard thinking.
 The artist had had q long experience of living In New York boarding houses and furnished rooms as a student and the fiat was to bring her all those little comforts and conyeniences she had longed for in vain ever since she left home. It was to bring her the independence of studio. and in nd dition there was the comfort of bath and plenty of hot water, wh few but high priced studios possess. But the little kitch- en at the end of the hall meant more than this. It represented a touch of home life. n place In which 10 get breakfast or a bite of luneh the convenience of being able to press out neckwear or handkerchiefs, or do little washing If one should wish.

An English General Who Was Del
 fled by East Indians.
 John Nicholson, British colonel and brigadler general, was once worshiped as a god. He was the eldest son of Alexander Nicholson, a physician of Dublin. This gallant soldier distin- guishcd himself in the Punjab cam paign of 1S4S-49. when he was appoint ed a deputy commissioner of the an- nexed Punjab under Sir Henry Law renee. Al Bannu, dealing wisely with an ignorant and bloOdthirsty people, be evolved in the course of five years such order and respect for law that murder and highway robbery, previously so rife. were unknown in the district.
 He so impressed his powerful per sonality on the natives that be became to them a demigod, and in Hazara a brotherhood of fabirS in 1S4S instituted a religious cult for the worship of Nj kal-Seyn." which continued to flourish fin spite of NicholsOu's efforts to sup press it even by punishment.
 At a moment Of victory during the siege of I-,lhi in 1857 this hero fell mortally wounded in the street while leading his men. He died few days later on the 23d of September, 1857, and was buried in front of the Rash mir gate.

He Ia n Tough Beast and Is Exceed-
 inEIy Hard ts XIII.
 Badgers belong to the great weasel tribe, although they are also allied, as many people know, to the bears. Among their more or less distinguished rela- lives may be named the wolverene, ot- ter, skunk and marten. In Africa and India. says writer in Longman's Mag azine. are to be found the curious ra- tels, a remarkable branch of the family, distinguished by their extraordinary fondness for honey. To obtain this lux ury they spend most of their time hunt ing for the nests of wild bees.
 They are absolutely oblivious, as are English badgers, of the stings of the mfurlated bees, their tough, thick and loose coats protecting them from any serious injury. Ratels are strong and very courageous beasts. The Boers of South Africa hold them in high respect, as do the natives, and assert that pair of these beasts will occasionally attack n human being. I have heard of men being treed by these animals, but whether the tale was true or false am uncertain. What Is certain is that the ratel. or honey badger, of South Africa is a beast extremely difficult to kill by reason of his tough constitution, good defensive powers and extraordinarily loose coat and that he is when meddled with or put out a beast of very high courage and unpleasant manners.

AN OLD SUPERSTITION.
The Practice Of Consulting Scripture
 ns Q Book of Fnte.

The Practice Of Consulting Scripture
 as a Book Of Fate.
 The practice of consulting Scripture as a book of fate was generally con demned by the church. A council at Vannes pronounced against it ln 46l A. D. So did one at Agde ln JO6 md one at Auxerre iu 5S5. Charles the Great forbade it in his capituaries. and so did Pope Gregory H. Never, thplrss curiosity as to the future was so strong in mems minds that the GUS tom continued.
 An odd circumstance is that the .athedral chapter at Orleans in ll4G spDoalel tc a prornostic of this sort in a supplicutlon addressed by them to Pope Alexander III. against their bish- ln. At his conservation, when the sos pcl was opened above his head, the finger of thc deacon rested upon the words. And he left tue linen cloth and fed from tLem naked" This was a token that the bishop Elias was to be turned ont of his see.
 The practice of observing the book when opCnyd over the head of pre- ,te nt his conservation was very com mon. It was thought that sure ou gury could thence be drawn as to what sort or bishop l,e would prove.-Cham- bcrs' Journal

CAN WIN
Canada Cannot Afford Com
 meraial War

The Seattle Post Intellgeneer, com menting upon the Canadian order to prevent American bottoms from carry ing Canadian goods to St. Mighsel says:
 "The Dominion government is en- countering a snAg in it's proposition to cut American vessels out of tho Yukon trade by refusing to permit Canadian goods to be carried from Canadian ports to the American ports which are the entrepots of the Yukon trade
 "If it withdraw the transit in bond privilege from American ships on this coast ii will invite a withdrawal ot the same privilege from Canadian transportation companies which handle a large share of the trade between the American cities in the neighborhood of the border
 'The stare department at Washing ton has taken this matter up with eommendable prOmptness. On Satur- day the United States consul at Ottawa was requested to furnish at once a copy of the recent order in council which undertakes to discrtmin- ate against American vessels in the Yukon trade.
 This order is not merely sn appli- cation of the coastwise laws to this trade, because the voyage of the American vessels is not from one Canadian port to another, but from a Canadian to an American port What Is denied by it to American ships is the privilege of taking Canadian goods from a Canadian port to an American port in bond, thence returned into in- terior Canada, after tranSShipment by railroad or 5y river boats 10 operates 10 deny Co American transportation companies priv .ledes granted by this gov srnment Co Canadian transporta- tion companies and invites the natural retaliation.
 "Whea the order in council reaches Washington doubtless American GUS toms officers will be instructed that that the transit in bond privilege has been withdrawn from Canadian trans pOrtatiOn companies.
 This country can stand a fight of this kind as long as Canada can. h. deed, the transit in boud' privilege is of infinitely more value to the Can adian companies than it is to American companies

BIGSTORY
St. Louis Paper Writes Up
 Runners MastOdOn

The St. Louis Psst.Dispatch gives more than two columns of reading mat ter and a full page illustration in tell ing how c. C Runner, of Skagway, IS going to take a r1astOdon of wonderful proportions from the Arctic ocean to St. Louis to bs exhibited at the fair The illustratiC1 shows a mastodon seven times as tall as the men who sur round 1t, encased in a gigantic block ot transparent ice. The ice and masto- don, in the picture, have been lashed with ropes and chains to immense bob sleds to which have been hitched 52 horses. These are to draw the man. moth to St. Michael, according to the story, at which place the mammoth will be loaded into a refrigerator ship, built for the purpose. It will then go to San Francisco and be transferred to refrigerator cars, especially construct ed for the purpose of conveying the find to St. Louis.
 A plan to tow the ice and mammoth to San Francisco was abandoned, be- cause it was feared the ice would melt before it could get there.
 As wonderful as is the Post-Dis- patch's story as to what, is going to be done with the mammoth, more wonder full still is that of how it was discov- cred.
 A band of Aleuts, so the story goes, who had been on hunting expedition on the shoi es of the Arctic (25OO miles away "came careering into Skagway jubilant and vociferous," one morning not long ago, and they related the story of the discovery oi a great mammoth, 30 feet high with tusks foot thick, en-. cased in a glacier which has it's termin- al morraine on the shores of the Arctic ocean, Acting upon this information, Mir. Runner has organized a company of Skagway business men who've pnt million or two of their surplus wealth in the undertaking of transferring the Aleutian found mastodon to the worlds fair.

STRAIN TOO GREAT
Hundred, of Reader. Find It So

The hustle and worry of business men,
 The hard work and stopping Oi workmen,

 Are too great a strain on the kid neys.
 Backache, headache, sideache,
 Kidney troubles, urinary troubles follow.

 Jacob F.. Mccoy, bridge builder and contractor, residing on Capital street, Salem, Oregon, second house beyond Mill CreeN, says: "I have always enjoped good health up to five or six years ago. Along about the time my kidneps commenced to bother me. There was so much backaChe but the principal symptoms were in connection with the kidney secretiOns. A strain or over-eXertiOn very often caused hemorrhsges of the kidneys. l can not say that it was so very painful, but it was very annoying, l used various remedies. and while some gave relief, others were worthless. In some way Doan's Kidney Pills were brought to my notice aed when up town l pro- cured a box, taking them as directed. A few doses gave me very convincing proof that they were going to the right spot and can state that they gave me wonderful relief. l have a high opinion of Doan's Kidney Pills and cheeriully recommend them"

EprIapd,s First Railroad.

The travelling on the first railroad in England was not very comfortable un- doubtedly. The coaches were at first only coupled with chains, as wagons are now, so that they jerked the un- fortunate passengers nearly olI their seats at starting and clashed violently against each other when the driver put on his brake. When fairly in motion, if the speed was any but the slOwest the very short wheel base produced a pitching action so trying that if tie Journey had not been sho-t one a; would have seriously affected the pop ularity of the railway as a means of passenger transit.
