Against Submission.

II you are against prohibition,
you should vote down the propo-
sition of the prohibitionists to
submit the question. If you
vote for submission, you train
with the prohibitionists. This
much vexed question has already
been submitted in every precinct
where the people want it sub
mitted. Wherever the sentiment
has been in favor Of prohibition,
the question has been submitted,
so there is nothing to submit to

the question. "Shall the people

KEEPING THE CLOSET CLEAN
One Solution Of This Problem That
confronts Many Is to Paint
Il White.

Usually there are about the house
closets so dark that except at the
yearly or semi-yearly housekeeping 1t
is impossible to tell whether or not
they are dirty. They are breeders Of
disease, even in the best-managed
households, for no maid and few mis-
tresses will crawl into the dark hole
under the stairs or back in the kitchen
after perfectly invisible dust.
One solution of the problem Is to
paint these closets white, ceiling, floor
and walls. 1t is easy enough to see
dirt theL, and the other and more use
full contents of the closet as we'll. II
one can keep the hall closet clean,
and find the family overshoe on sight,
simply by painting the closet white,
then. by all means, let us hasten to
the paintshop and remove the obsolete
and horrible wall paper that usually
incumbers these germ hotels.
If the closet is still dark after this
treatment, try cleaning with the aid
Of the electric fashlight. There Is no
danger of fire, and corners can be
closely investigated. All of which is
an advantage to the housewife who
does not love dirt and disorder.
But always, when cleaning day
comes, consider first the closets. and
most important of all of these iS the
sloping, dark, neglected closet under
the stairs.

About AppendIeItIs.

So long as Inflammation of the ap-
pendix remains restricted to that organ
but little harm is done to the patient.
Indeed, 1t is doubtful If any of the
symptoms Of appendicitis, properly So
called, are really due to the infiamma-
ton of the vermiform appendix itself; 1t
Is much more probable that they only
come on when the Inflammation has ex-
tended to the surrounding peritoneum.
This involvement of the peritoneum is
the important factor, whether from the
point Of view of diagnosis or of progno-
sis. The appendix is only important in
so far as 1t is the original cause Of
the peritonitis, and therefore its re-
moval may be the best way of treating
the peritonitis. 1t will be we'll, there.
fore, to consider the functions of the
peritoneum when discussing the treat
ment Of appendicitis. They are three.
fold: The power of absorption, the
power of killing organisms and the
power Of adhesion of one surface OF
peritoneum against another when in
any way either surface is irritated.-

SCENE OF MASSACRE
SPOT WHERE COOKS MEN WERE
KILLED IS FOUND.
Relies unearthed Leave No Doubt
That the Location 10 Authentic
Officers Weapon Among the
Other Things Discovered.

The exact spot where ten members
Of Captain Cooks expedition were mas
sacred by the Maoris 1877 years ago
has been definitely determined and
some interesting relics of the ancient
tragedy discovered by Robert McNab
in Grass Cove, Queen Charlotte sound.
1t may perhaps be remembered that
on December II, 1878, the captain Of
the Adventure sent two officers and
eight men across the sound to gather
wild greens for the ships company.
They failed to return, and searchers
who were sent out finally discovered
evidence of a tragedy in a number of
baskets containing human flesh and
fern root, also hand of a white man.
Grass Cove was previously conjectured
to be the scene of the ancient tragedy,
but Mr.. McNab, however, has settled
the question once and for all by dis
covering the exact spot where the Eng
hshmen were murdered.
After Mr.. McNab and the party of
friends with him had decided that the
massacre took place in a certain bend
40 VA Ooo WV q SOINluoAOA " WAASA
they came by comparing the locality
with the description given in Cooks
papers-they went ashore and spoke to
a settler, Mr.. Greensill, who was liv.
ing on the spot, regarding any evil
dences of the massacre that he may
have seen. Mr.. Greensill said he had
dug up in his garden an old flintlock
a barrel, a bayonet and some other kind
OF weapon he was unable to identify
This latter weapon Mr.. McNab at
once identified as an officers hanger
which was doubtless the one used by
Midsh1pman Rowe, who was in charge
Of the boats crew. There was a de.
scription of the sword given in the &C.
counts and they correspond exactly
with the weapons dug up. 1t was with
that hanger that Midshipman Rowe
killed two Maoris and wounded the
chief before being overpowered and
killed. This discovery places beyond a
shadow of doubt the exact locality OF
the massacre, which took place on the
spot now occupied as Mr.. Greensill's
garden in Grass Cove. Mr.. McNab dis
countenances the idea that the weapon
may have been carried there from the
fact that the locality exactly CORE
spends with the description given by
Captain Cook.

Chicken Salad.

An attractive way Of serving chick
en- salad is to place 1t in a ring Of
ham jelly. Two cupfuls of the salad
should be poured in the ring of jelly
after it is placed on a platter. To
make the dish attractive the jelly
should rest on lettuce or watercress.
For the ham jelly whip one-half pint
Of thick cream until stiff, stir in a
cupful of aspic jelly, cool a little,
and add jar Of potted ham. By
adding a few drops of fruit strip it
will make the jelly pink.

Funeral March a WarnInup

The sail from the Naples shore t.
Ischia is not q long excursion, and is
one of the most beautiful on all the
Italian coast. Tschia and Procida were
undoubtedly one island, not two, until
rent asunder by some cataclysm Of
nature. The stupendous headland on
which the historic castle of Ischia,
famous as the home of Vittoria Co
lonna, is perched, is landmark for a
great distance all around. The village
Of Ischia is not especially attractive,
but drive OF four miles carries one to
Casamicciola, through olive orchards
and a tangle of roses and myrtle,
where a comfortable hotel Is found,
and where still fingers the legend Of
the terrible earthquake that cleft the
town in 1888. In this hotel was a young
Englishman, who that evening was
playing in the salon to the guests. Sud
denly he broke into Chopin's March
Funebre," and within five minutes af-
terward came the earthquake shock
which killed three thousand people. It
was, to say the least, a curious Sc
Quence.
Many who still recall this tragic &C.
currence believe the sudden impulse
to play this selection was in the nature
Of a warning.-Lillian Whiting in the

A shrewd old German, who had

troublesome tooth, went to dentist
for treatment. After examination OF
the offending molar the dentist said;
That's very bad tooth, and should
advise you to save yourself pain and
take gas, which will cost you but a
little more"
He showed the machine to the old
chap and explained its workings; how
he would fall asleep for minute or
two and awake with the tooth and the
pain gone. The German at last con-
scented, and took out his purse.
"You need not pay now" said the
dentist, smiling.

.BRIGANDS OF CHINA

where the pure court language is the

Tartary, the Turkish words "orolis"
and "haiduck" come into use-borrow.

Transoxianian steppe.
All these words. Chinese and Turk.
ish, denote a daring and avowed bri-
gand, an open foe to law, thing
most hateful Of all others to blu.
reaucratic pedants like the formal
mandarins.
The kouan-kouen are not, however,
the most unpopular persons in the
Central Land. They are admired by
women, praised by men, sung Of in
the rude ballads OF the peasantry, and
when they mingle in the crowd at
village festival they are regarded
pretty much as the mountain bandit
is viewed by the rustics Of Corsica
and Sardinia.
There have been Chinese Robin

satin boots, and quaffed corn brandy
in the intervals Of their professional
duties, no doubt, and the hardy ma
RAIDERS are not seldom liberal of
their ill-gotten wealth, and scatter
among the lowly what they wrest
from the moneyed world.
These free-handed depredators, the,
kouan-kouen, do not rely entirely to-
the popularity which their exploits
and occasional gifts create for them
among the INDECENT classes. They have
confederates In the cities. Their
spies haunt the markets and hang;
about the inns. They have allies in.
the enemy's camp and pay handsome

brigadier gives timely warning Of an
expedition against band. There O.
sleek cashier notifies by writing that
such and such bales, or so much
ready money, the property Of his en-
ployers, will traverse certain road or
canal on a particular day.
The kouan-kouen are bold as well
as willy. Often 1t happens that they
have been honest, well meaning folks
in their time, goaded into Cutlawry by
some persecution on the part OF the
magistrates, or stripped Of their pat
rimony by a lawsuit.
Many of them can show the scars
of torture wrongly inflicted by some
capricious tyrant. Others have seen

Not every one can be member
of these predatory clubs. They test
their neophytes by a severe initiatory
penance, by hunger and pain and ia

certainty Of dire vengeance on the
false brother, and the Chinese avow
that the faith observed by these rob-
bers towards each other is remark
ably evinced, even under torture the
