Do Not Suppress a Cough.

When you have a cough do not
try to suppress it, but remove
the cause. The cough is only a
symptom of some disease, and
the disease is what you should
cure, then the cough will stop it.
self. The most common cause of
coughing is a cold. Anodynes
will promptly suppress the cough
and preparations containing
chloroform, opium, etc, are used
for that purpose, but they do not
cure the cold. Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy on the other hand
does not suppress the cough, but
relieves it by removing from the
throat and lungs the mucus
which obstructed the breathing
and allaying the irritation and
tickling in the throat. It also
opens the secretions and effectu-
ally and permanently cures the
cold as well as the cough. For

BLIND MAN ELECTRICIAN.
He Can Wire a House and Manage q
Dynamo-Has Won Prizes
at Chosen Arr.

The idea that blind people are
capable only of exercising certain
hackneyed professions such as
brush, basket and mat making has
been triumphantly refUted by Mr..
s.. Ferris, a resident Of Swindon,
England, who, though totally
sightless, carries on most sue
cessful business as a practical
electrician in that town.
Mr.. Ferris gained the requisite
knowledge of his business at the
Swindon technical schools, win.
ming four certificates and two first
prizes in competition with seeing
students. His principal, Mr..
Knowles, had no hesitation in
leaving him in full charge of the
engines and dynamOs.
Mr.. Ferris has since carried out
several contracts for the installa
tion of electric light to the entire
satisfaction of the Swindon corpo-
ration engineer and his customers
and has recently secured a fresh
contract for wiring and fitting ten
houses.
The blind electrician judges the
direction and distance of sur
rounding objects by the echo of his
own footsteps, and is thus enabled
to steer clear of obstacles. He
never uses "A walking stick.
Mr.. Ferris method in wood
turning is TO hold the machine too
in the right hand only, and allow
the fingers of the left to rest on the
revolving work, SO that he may de
tect if it is being accurately done
He grinds and sharPens his OWL
implements, also cutlery Of al
kinds.

Experiments Resulting from E-arl
Winter Cause Growers to Pro-
vide Hot Houses.

The severe winters which have
for several seasons done such dam
age to the orange crops in Califof-
MIA and the south have caused
many experiments in the way OF
protection to the fruit. Some OF
these methods have passed the ex-
perimental stage, and it is be-
lieved that they will completely
revolutionize fruit growing. Acres
and acres of ground are rooted
over with a latticed ceiling ana
the oranges are sheltered in per-
fectly equabIe dollhouse. The OBJ
ject Of the invention is to save the
crops not only from frost, bur
from the high winds which sweep
over these areas. When these
winds blow from the ocean
a large percentage of the crop IS
shaken from the trees while yet im
mature, and much of the rest is so
lacerated by the scratching OF the
thorns and branches that it can
not be graded much above the
quality of culls. This happens in
about one of every four years, and
every winter there is danger from
frost.
When the fruit is attacked by
frost it will appear perfectly
sound, the skin will not be discOl
ored or wilted and the weight and
firmness will not appear dimin
ished. But cut into it and the
cells are found to be devoid Of
juice. Many fruit growers have
shipped their oranges to an east
ern market without knowing that
they were damaged by frost and
incurred the expense of freight in
addition to the loss of the crop.
Not only is the crop destroyed by
the frost, but the young shoots are
wilted, which retards the bearing
of the trees about three years.
The roofs make a difference Of
about five degrees, or, in other
words, the difference between saw
ing and losing the crop. The trees
beneath the roofs are not damaged
by the dust which is brought by
the winds, and which seems
to interfere in some way with
the perfect growth of the
fruit. 1t also necessitates the
washing of the fruit before send
ing to market, and this involves
considerable labor, besides making
the fruit seem less fresh. But one
of the greatest advantages is the
fact that the fruit needs much less
water. In a country where sue
cess in fruit growing is largely Il
matter of irrigation this consider.
alton is no small matter.
The cost of roofing the trees is
about $3.50 an acre. The saving of
one crop, however, would pay for
the whole of the construction; hut
supposing that there were no
losses from frost or winds in 20
years, the superior fruit produced
by the cover, the saving in water
and the larger crops would more
than pay the amount of annual ex-
pense.

western States. is still going on. though probably not quite to the extent of q year or two ago. The movement has naturally attracted attention in Eng land and there seems to be some ap- prehension there that 1t will result in such an Americanization of Canada as will not be to the advantage tof the mother country. A London organ of the commercial interests thinks 1t has discovered that already the infusion of American ideas into the Dominion has had an influence detrimental to British trade. in teaching the people there that they can deal to better advantage with American manufacturers than with those of England. not only in the mat ter of prices, but as we'll in that of the quality of the goods, which is the more important consideration.
 But the Canadian people had learned this before the American emigration began, as shown in our steady growing exports of manufactures to Canada for a number of years. That market is supplied with goods equal in quality to like articles marketed here, and 1t has been alleged at rather less cost, as to some articles at least, than the home consumer is charged. Notwithstanding the preferential duties on British manufactures in thea Canadian tariff, our trade with the Dominion has stead fly grown, while that of England has made little or no progress. This Is not due to any influence exerted by the few thousands of people swho have gone from this country across the northern border and taken up lands. They cut very small figure in the population of the Dominion and are not where they can exercise any influence upon trade. tAs due to the superiority of Ameri- can goods and the greater energy and enterprise of our manufacturers and merchants. The London paper remarks that Canadians are American in ideas and in business habits, and require treatment of different kind to that which is meted out to traders in other colonies. This is so; and as long as the British manufacturer does not un- derstand the fact and act upon 1t, he will be at a disadvantage in competi- tion with the American. Indeed, it is net probable that he will ever be other wise than at a disadvantage in such competition, for Canada cannot, with a due regard for her own industries, &C., cord him much larger tariff favors than at present.
 Americanization of Canada may be making progress in some directions, notably in inspiring the people with desire for independence, but there is a different influence operating upon trade between the two countries, and 1t is one which the British manufacturer will find it very difficult, if not im- possible to overcome.

"what is beautyY" asked the man.

What is beauty?" asked the man.
 "It's merely a question of the best skin food and the most becoming clothes" said the woman.
 Its mainly personality" remarked the man.
 And there was good deal of sense in both these remarks.
 When you go to fashionable gath ering at first glance you are lost in admiration of the many beautiful wo- men. A second look will reveal the fact that, with one or two exceptions, they are not beautiful at all and that half of them at least are positively homely If you stop to analyze their features.
 But they all give the impression of being beautiful why7
 Because they are well groomed and wear becoming soft colors. Now, this kind of beauty Is within the reach of every one. Why does the poor girl look unattractive so often? Because she cannot wear >Paquin frocks? No; because her hair is dull and arranged with no care. She has a huge, rough pompadour and knot at the back with little ends sticking out Then her waist is not simple, but Is built in imitation of an elaborate perlshable style a we'll dressed woman would re- serve for evening wear: consequently 1t has not kept its freshness; the neck is ragged: 1t has sagged and pulled out of shape. She wears string of cheap beads around her neck and j couple of little tawdry brooches. To make up for this grandeur she has not been able to afford any cold cream for her skin, and. badly treated 1t looks rough Her skirt Is made of cheap material in order to allow for tho masses of trimming on it. These trim mings gather the dust: hence an until dy, unbrushed appearance.

Japan Has stood the Test.

London Statist.
 The war between China and Japan
 made clear to the English speaking peoples that new great power had arisen in the far East. It Is impossible for the most skeptical to refuse to rec ognize that we are face to face with a world power which Is destined to exer- else great influence, not only in the East, but also in the West-that, in fact, the ascendency of Europe is at an end now that~there are two non-European great powers. It Is never to be forgot ten and a great war Is the supreme test of national efficiency. That Japan in single combat with one of the great est military powers of the world, the power which hitherto has been sup posed to possess numerically the larg- est army, has borne the test well no- body can deny. Therefore, we seem warranted In assuming that the prog ress of Japan in the early future will be very rapid--at least as rapid as that of Germany during the past generation.
