Will Not Participate in Exposition.

TOXIC, February 19.-The weavers. a
small organization. passed resolutions
agreeing not to participate in the Alaska
Yukon exposition to be held at Seattle
next summer, on account of the anti-Jap-
arese attitude of the Pacific coast. This

Rev. Abel Augustus Marble died
at his home in Norristown, Pa, on

advanced age of eighty-six years.
Mr.. MARBLE was the Rector of
St. Pauls P. E. Church, Blooms.

After many years of active and
useful service there, he resigned,

had lived a retired life.
During his active days he was

known clergymen in the diocese,
and as we recollect, was for some
time President of the Standing

MAGEE FOR COUNCIL.

James Magee has decided not to
run for President of Council, but
will be a candidate for Member. He
has been elected several times, al
ways by large vote, and will, no
doubt, succeed again. He has been
a valuable member, and if he and
c. w. Runyon, who is also an in
dependent candidate, are returned,
it is quite certain that the majority
of the council will not be composed
of men who can be controlled by
any one man, or by any set OF men,
for their own purposes.

Man has no right to question wo-

woman, bless her. is as old as she
makes out or makes up and not a
day older. Man is out OF his latitude
when he begins trying to locate wo-
mans age longitude II Is her privi-
lege to conceal her age In any form or
manner she may choose, and e is
mans prerogative to assist her as
much as possible rather than hinder or
question her in any way. Man owes
II to himself to see that she Is sup
piled with every means Of concealing
her age or any new wrinkle which she
chooses to keep from the gaze Of the
Overcurious public. Man Is not sup
posed to be young or beautiful He
couldn't be II he wanted to be and

II Is different. She wants to be and

The Sixteenth Century Carver.

At the formal banquet OF the six
teenth century the man who carved
the meat was hound with the red tape
OF precedent When carving for dis
tinguished guests be had TO remem-
Der that certain parts Of the birds or
meat must be set aside. In carving
for his lord and lady he was expected
to exercise great discretion in the
size Of the pieces he sent round, "for
ladies win be soon angry and their
thoughts soon changed, and some lords
are soon pleased and some not, NV they
be Of complexion" He was expected
to have the rules both OF the kitchen
and the peerage at his knife's end.
A pike. for instance, must be dlshed
up whole for a lord and In slices for
commOner folk. The rank Of his din
ers, too, determined whether a pig
was to be served up whole, sliced,
plain or with gold leaf or whether
new bread or bread three days old
should be eaten.
