Curling Popular in Canada.

One of the most popular of Canadian winter sports, says St. Nicholas, is curl ing, which is said to have originated in Scotland. To the uninitiated the sight is that of four men sweeping the ice; but there is method in the game, and the curling stones and tees are arranged carefully, for a scientific player is keen to take advantage of every ruling. The tees are placed 38 yards apart; the play CTS stand behind a tee. and the score is marked on the ice seven yards in front of each tee. Of course, the game is to keep the stone within certain limits, a feat not easily accomplished.

WAR REPoRTERs
A Plea That Their Presence Would
 Prevent Barbarities.

A Plea That Their Presence Would
 Prevent Barbarities. Of the wounded Japanese who fall into Russia's hands. and the unwound- ed as welb-exeepting those who are caught playing the spy-I can speak with confidence. and say that they are well treated. I had an Asiatie servant for while who had been a bearer in the fighting line, and though he was not in any way overburdened with love for the Russians. he bore testimony to their unfailing kindness to their enc mics when the latter fell into their hands.
 Most of us can remember how mis- chief-makers on the Continental press tries during the Boer war to make the world believe that we iIl-treated the enemy's wounded, holding us up to the scorn and contempt of humanity. We all of us knew at the time that this was false. We have proved 1t false to the whole world since. but we have not yet forgotten our traducers. It will do us no harm to remember this as the present war goes on. I know that the strictest orders have been given by of f1cers of the highest rank to the troops to deal kindly with the wounded after an action. That many terrible deeds will be done in hot blood on both sides there can be but small room to doubt. When men get to the crossing of bay onets all that is deyilish in their blood is apt to come uppermost. At that state man Is no better than a tiger and many tigerish deeds may be ex- pected. But in cold blood do not be- lieve that the Russians will lay rough hands upon the fallen.
 To explain just what I mean, let me say that I should not care to be in the enemy's trenches when regiment of the Highland brigade or the Grenadiers or the Dublin Fusiliers stormed in with
The daily morning journal and courier., 1904-12-10

the bayonet. At the same time, I do not think I should have an atom of fear of what might happen later if I lay in those trenches among the wounded.
 Yet it must be admitted that one of the great safeguards of civilization has been removed since the war correspon- dents of the world have been prevented from going into the firing line to see for themselves what happens. At present the world has to take a generals word for 1t that he did not at any time be- have like fiend to helpless foes. and ex-parte evidence is never of a thor oughly satisfactory character. Com manders complain that cabled news may upset their plans. Well, stop the cables; but let the letters go; let one man from each journal of repute look on and chronicle the things to be seen, and many a deed of unnecessary saw agery will be prevented by the mere presence of the pressmen, for no nation can afford to stand before the world devoid of honor, of chivalry or of mer- e.
 In the interests of the wounded men who fall in battle I think this point should be taken up by the whole worlds press, for the exclusion Of the war correspondent from the field of battle is a step backward toward dark ness, not from "a mere neWsgatherer's point of view, but in the interests of humanity. The press that only desires cable news to increase it's circulation may very well be dismissed, either or the score of humanity or utility, but the international press that is content, as of old time, with dispassienate let ters, should not be kept from the scene when events that are likely to affect the world at large are impending. | London News.

During the reign of Louis XIV. of

ut It's hest IN France. The Beau Brum.
mels Of the French court spent enOr-
nous sums on sleeve rullics and
jabOts, and II was not unusual for
comparatively narrow rutiies of valeii-

But during the French revolution

besides, the nobility of France We're in
no position to purchase such expensive
lace; from valenciennes they turned to
cheaper laces from Lille and Arras.
The Lille makers could produce three

whereas valenciennes worker could
never do more than an inch and half

less effective, but so much more rea-
sonable that for ordinary occasions, mt

Then, during the upheaval in French
politics, the valenciennes workers fled
to Belgium, where they settled IN
Client, Ypres, Bruges and nalghboring

That the good half bad and the bad half GOOD
Not the rich and the for to count mans wealth
You must first know the state of his conscience and health
Not the humble and proud, for In ffes little span
Who puts on vain airs is not counted man.
Not the happy and sad. for the swift flying years
Bring each his laughter and each man his tears
No. the two kinds Of people earth that mean
Are the people who lift and the people who lean,
Wherever you YOU will find the worlds masses
Are always divided in just these two classes.
And. oddly enough. you will find too, ween,

In which class are you? Are you easing the load
Of.overtaxed hfters who toll down the road?
Or are you leaner who lets others bear
Your portion of labor and worry and care?
