sRetort Of John Wilkes.

In the days when George III. was
king, and when his periodic lapses into
|hfrmity of mind brought about re-
+sumptions of the regency and changes
cf policy, there was an English lord
chancellor who trimmed his sails to
the DOCTORS bulletins. He was a poll
.tician Of type with which we are all
too familiar. He heard one day that
the king was better and would resume
the reins of Office, and he made an i'm
passioned speech against the regency
In the house Of lords. In his perora-
3don. he cried, Il cannot forget all that
I owe to the bounty Of my gracious
sovereign; and when / forget him, may
my God forget met" He was impressed
With the magnihcence Of his own ora
tory, and could not refrain from re-
peating the last phrase to John Wilkes.
Mhom he met in Westminster hall aft
ar the debate. Forget you!' said
wilkes. Hell see you damned FIRST" ;"

Good Air in the House.

Clean air in the house Is as much a
necessity to health as clean water,
and. inasmuch as a considerable por-
ton Of the air in the house rises from
the cellar, the cellar must be as clean
and pure as it is desired that the
house atmosphere shall be. In the alb
sence Of any ventilating system win
dows and doors must do the work OF
bringing In and letting out the air. The
Impure air must escape to make room
for pure air. Open the windows at
the top as well at the bottom, the
warmer air at the top of the room will
thus pass out. Keep one window on
the top floor open little most OF the
time to provide p general air-escape
Tor the whole house. When airing bed
Exooms in the morning leave the cup
board door open. A sleeping room
|ased as sitting room during the day
must be given a good airing before
bedtime. The bath room and the
Kitchen need special ventilation, and
ne living room must be well aired
he last thing at night, otherwise the
Bed-up air will make it's way through
the house.

Big Ben, leader or the crowd, the
giant irresistible champion of a man
when he was his friend, you'll run:
There isn't a man in the GUlch who

tone of unutterable pathOs, 81 can't

stOrmily.
"Until-later," faltered Jordan.

That was the way that RansOme
Jordan turned down what his friends
called the chance of his life. The COM
mittee retired, less worked up as Big
Ben expressed it than uneasy. There
was a reason, Jordan had told them.
He held his secret and his loyal
friends respected it.
'RansOme, dear, Why?" were the
words that greeted him as the wife
who had overheard all met him at the
doorway, and that was the hardest
part of it all
She was a little, dark woman, the
daughter of an old prOspectOr who
had picked up Jordan in the old days
when he wis sick and poor. It was
Nance DalzieIl who had nursed JOT-
dan back to health. It was she who
had staked him with a claim that
PANIED out big, and married him aft
er she had turned him from his old
reckless ways.
Now those clear searching eyes of
hers challenged his soul. His love,
his gratitude, his loyalty spoke in his
fervent returning glance.
Don't ask, Nance" he pleaded.
