Trick of the Drug Trade

Never ask for the copy of a pre-.
scription at the time you buy the medi-
cine" said the dyspeptic looking man.
In nine out of ten drug stores they
will tack 10 or Is cents to the regular
price of the medicine if you do. That
Of course is contrary to professional
etiquette. Druggists are not supposed
to charge extra for furnishing a copy
OF a prescription. If you will wait a
few days and ask for it, unaccompa-
MED by a bottle Of medicine, they
won't have the nerve to do it, but
when the two are prepared together
they can gain some compensation for
their extra work and the loss of q DOS
s1Dle customer without anybody being
the w1ser."-New York Press.

ETIQUETTE AMONG PEERS.
Rules Laid Down to Preserve the
Dignity of Their Chamber.

Besides insisting upon all due respect
to themselves the peers suffer no dis
respect to the stately gilded chamber
IN which they are accustomed to assem-
BILE. Even when parliament is not in
session none, but members are allowed
TO be covered there. Not even the eldest
son Of any peer may wear his hat in
the room. Neither is any person to
stay there, nor any attendant on any
nobleman but while be brings in his
lord, and then lie is to retire himself"
In 1908 official notice was taken of
the fact that Of late the doorkeepers
have frequently presumed to come
within the doors when the house is sit
ting, and it was therefore ordered that
for the future this liberty be forbid
den: Another point in which the peers
are scrupulous to preserve their dig
nifty is revealed in the standing order
with reference to conferences between
the two houses.
1t sets forth that 1.-THE place of our
meeting with the lower house upon
conference is usually the painted cham
Der, where they are commonly before
we come and expect our leisure. We
are to come thither in a whole body
and not some lords scattering before
the rest, which both takes from the
gravity of the lords and besides may
hinder the lords from taking their
proper places. We are to sit there
and be covered, but they are not at
any committee or conference either to
be covered Or sit down in our presence
unless it be some infirm person and
that by connivance in a corner out of
sight, to sit, but not to be covered"
Although never rescinded, this regu-
latlon is now practically obsolete

Ottawa, Ont.-A yearly revenue of

the policy of refQrestation the provin-

ton.
The plan proposed embraces forest
reserve of 40.000,000 acres, fire sys-
TEN, and restrictions as to the girth of
timber felled under leases for CONNER
cial purposes that practically will in
sure permanent supply and preserve
the forests for all time to come.
Whether or not the scheme is car

tended, it is~ evident the governments
Of all the provinces of Canada, as we'll
as the federal government, are awake
fully to the disgraceful wastefulness of
numbering as it has been carried on in
the past, and are resolved to put an
end to it by regulations, by new pro-
visions in the leases, and in other
ways.
Thousands of square miles of forest
lands, which never can be so valuable
for any other purpose, as for the
growth Of timber, are to be saved for
ever from indiscriminate tree slaugh>
ter. The days Of wanton destruction
and prodigal recklessrtess, so far as
Canadian forest timber IS concerned,

PLANT IS SWALLOWED UP.
Earth Opens Near Joplin, No., and
Mining Works Disappear In
Enormous Hole.

Joplin, Mo.-The earth literally
opened and swallowed the $1,000 min
ing plant Of the Holy Smoke, on the
Ayler land south of Carterville, reduc-
ing that mill to kindling wood and half
burying the debris 100 feet below the
surface. The $4,000 contracting ore
plant of the Lucky Judge, adjoining, is
20 seriously threatened by an extension
of the cave-in that it is being rapidly
dismantled.
The hole in which the Holy Smoke
mill went down is 400 feet broad and 100
feet Deep with capacity Of 5000, 900
cubic feet of earth.
Fifteen men at work in the under
ground drifts we're warned by the
groaning of the earth and escaped an
hour before the final crash came.
State Mine Inspector Ragland is
aroused by this and another disastrous
cave-ina short time ago under the tracks
of two railroads in Joplin, and declares
that radical change in the cave system
of zinc mining must soon come about.
