The "pominionn Of Canada.

We are accustomed to take the ex-
preston Of the Dominion of Canada
for granted, but the original Of that
somewhat unusual word is known to
very few. When at length the great
scheme Of Sir John Macdonald was
realized, and the nine provinces group
ed themselves together into one great
confederation. a serious difficulty was
presented by the choice of a suitable
name. For a time almost a deadlock
ensued.
At length Que old member of parlia-
ment rose from his seat and told his
colleagues that he had read in his BIZ
BILE that very morning the words, His
dominion shall be from the one sea to
the other" Accordingly he suggested
that Canada should be known as the
Dominion, or Gods Land. The sug-
gestion seized upon the hearts and i'm
aginati0ns Of those present, and it was
promptly acted upon.-Pall Mall Ca
Zette.

Ono Hostess, Secret.

A very successful hostess was asked
the secret of her success with her din
lers. She said that when she heard q
friend mention a dish that he liked or
disliked very much she jotted it down
in a small memorandum book. and
when she planned her dinner she con
suited the book first. The consequence
was she served string beans to
the man who detested them nor ice
cream to the woman who couldn't zen
dure cream in any FORM"

In h Stocks.


In England the punishment of the
stocks has been inflicted within the
memory of men now living. In the
Manchester Guardian of June IA, 1872.
there is an account of q man enduring
this form of punishment at Newbury.
He was a rag and bone dealer of in
temperate habits and was fixed in the
stocks for drunkenness and disorderly
conduct. ~"Twenty-six years had elaps-
ed since the stocks were last used"
states this account, land their reap
pearance created no little sensation
and amusement. several hundreds of
persons being attracted tt the spot
where they were fixed" The "amuse-
ment" does not appear to have been
shared by the prisoner, who was re-
leased after four hours and Seemed
anything but pleased with the laughter
and derisiOn of the crowd"

WHAT CA7ARRH IS

It has been said that every third
person has catarrh in some form.
Science has shown that nasal catarrh
often indicates a general weakness
of the body; and local treatments in
the form of snuffs and vapors do little,
if any good.
To correct catarrh you should treat its
u by enriching your blood with the
oil-food in Scott's Emulsion which is a
medicinal food and a building-tonic, free
homalcohol or any harmfuldrugs. Tryit.

their devotion, so much so that they call upon their prophets to preserve them from sad faces.
 John Bunny was off the stage the same kindly good-humored comedian, His face may have been his fortune, for to look at him was to laugh; but beyond this he was a genius, a man who understood his fellow man, who loved flowers and children and who had few unkindly thoughts about any one or anything.
 It is related that when Rabellas was on his death bed and watched his weeping friends, he exclaimed with honest pride, "If were to die 10 times over should never make you cry half so much as have made you laugh"
 This can be said of John Bunny. Meet any child and ask if he is ac- quainted with John Bunny and you will find that his name is household word.
 There must be a sweet satisfaction when the end comes that you can close your eyes p peace with the thought that your life has not been wasted. that you have brought sun shine into darkened lives, that you have made sad faces smile, that you have banished gloom with your own smile.
 John Bunny was not always a nov ing picture star He was one of the best Shakesperian character actors of his day, and his Bottom in "A Mid Summer Nights Dream" will long be remembered and will be chronicled among Shakesperian impersonations as a classic. He had a great admir- ation of the old English masters. His elder Absolute in "The Rivals" ranked with the Bob Acres of Joseph Jeffer- son. That he was identified with such parts seems strange for a man who began life as a grocer's clerk. The man who eXudes good nature

THE METABOLISM OF WICHITA
 RIANS

The vegetarian propaganda, hereto
 fore based in many instances on moral religious or sentimental grounds. has ot late turned to the science of nutri- tion for justification of it's claims.
 There has been frank attempt on the part of the advocates to abandon sec tarian and financial views and to seek recognition for a vegetarian diet both as rational dietary and as a curative agency. The extremes of definition are being abandoned. In the words of recent advocate, for all intents and purposes vegetarian is one who does not habitually make use of flesh foods, in contradistinction to the habi- tual user. Vegetarianism now frank ly aims to emerge from a sentimental diet into a scientific truth.
 When advocates of a system of liv- ing are willing to submit their claims to the test of scientific experiment, says The Journal of the American Medical Association, a reasonable ground for discussion is afforded. The debate becomes one that involves facts and records-results that can be dupli- cated at will, rather than unmeasur- able prejudices and counter-claims. It is frequently asserted that vegetar- ian regiment may bring about excep- tional endurance and capacity for work. It is doubtless true that the vegetarian custom leads to habits of abstemiousness in diet from the bene- ficial results may accrue to the indi- vidual. This is not equivalent, how ever to saying that the vegetarian works at the expense of less energy or in a fashion that is mysterously economical from the standpoint of the exchange of matter in the body. Us ing the resources of the Nutrition Laboratory of the Carnegie Institu- tion of Washington and the Battle Creek Sanitarium, Benedict and Roth have made observations on both men land women who had subsisted on a vegetarian diet for considerable per iod of time, extending, on the average over several years. The results in idicate that the nutritional processes of vegetarians are essentially like those of nonvegetarians. Thus com parison of the heat production per twenty-four hours showed that the men vegetarians produced 25.5 calor- ies per kilogram and the nonvege- tarian men of like height and weight i26.4 calories. On the tasis of the heat per square meter of body sur face per twenty four hours, the vege-

A Conundrum of Statesmanship.

Philadelphia Record.
 The Pacific Mail Steamship Com pany employs Chinese crews The Furuseth-La Toilette law was design ed to prevent this, and the company says it will, and it has cancelled all it's sailings after the law shall go into effect. What good will Americans get out of this legislation? They will not be hired in place of the Chin- ese; the company could not afford to do that. Of course, the ultimate pur- pose is to subsidize the company by paying for the American crew out of the public treasury, but when we can get the transportation done for us cheaply, why should We spend the pub lie money upon it?
