' The prices of the necessities of life continue to rise In a most alarming way in the large cities of Germany, with Be and Hamburg at their head. housewives are in a state of growing anxiety, asking the Government to "do some their trade is not to suffer seriously. In their prohibition to Import abroad does not enable home farmers | the to cope with the national demand, for oxen, sheep, and calves is practically stationary, and in some districts is even growing less, while the demand increases. They ask for the abolition of all frontier barriers to importation of live stock, and less drastic mea sures in dealing with cattle supposed to be affected with tuberculosis. This, they say, is carried to absurd lengths. A curious political coloring is lent to this movement of the German but- chers by the threat that if the Govern- ment declines to remove their griev- ances they will, as a body, join the Social Democratic organization. The butchers have hitherto been among the most loyal of the Kaiser's sub jects, THE PREACHER'S BARREL. interesting question of the preacher's "barrel" comes forward again in a suit for damages against a railroad by a Minnesota clergyman. The clergyman shipped his sermons an accumulation of twenty years--and they never reached him In his new field. He wants the railroad to pay for them. One reason named is their value to him to preach again to other congregations, If the sermons are not recovered we hope the preache will be able to collect--all they are worth. We should suppose the par ishioners iz his new charge would be willing to share with the railroad in paying the damages collected. Other churches that hear of this mishap will slyly advise their coming pastors to patronize this particular road. The preacher himself might find further compensation in observing the effect on himself of doing some original work.--Hom. Review. WOOL IN SOUTH AFRICA. The Exports Will Double and Amount to 800,000 Bales. Since the conclusion of the South African war, says The Canadian Tex tile Journal, exports of wool from the Cape have more than doubled, and last year amounted to v.ore than 400, 000 bales. The best judges are of opinion that within a decade the ex- ports will double again, and amount to 800,000 bales. To reach this quan: tity it will not be necessary to double the number of sheep pastured. The Boer has heretofore been among the most. backward sheep farmers in the and millions of his sheep pro- y any wool, and ought to od and replaced by well Owing to the wisdom this I» 8d a fl past large made, both by the govern rivate people, of sheep from the t studs in Australia.

QUEEN - MARY She Will Never Wear the Silly Ex tremes of Fashion. The new Queen of England is de servedly popular, and from the mo ment of her debut as the Princess May of Teck she seemed to take hold as the popular imagination as being TT "On behalf of my father, 1 wish for perhaps the most elegant girl in so- | them, ciety, for, though far from blessed with s superfiuity, of wealth, she was ~possibly owing to her Austrian par entage--chic and neat in her dress. She attires herself in a style of her groomed, while her evening gowns are made in Court fashion and never incline to the untidy and "artistic." Queen Mary will undoubtedly lead the fash- jon in English dress, just as King Edward set the modes for men, not only in England, but all over the world. The silly extremes of fashion will never be worn by the new Queen, who shows innate good taste in every respect of her life. Queen Mary, it is known in inner circles, has quiet, intellectual leanings, and is especially fond of pictures, reading, music, the drama, apd the intellectual side of travel. Nothing pleased her better than to slip away abroad, incognita, with a single lady-in-waiting, and to explore some interesting town. When in Prague a year or two ago, she was running about that most picturesque of capitals, quite alone, and unrecognized. The Princess of Wales had come to see the city where her ancestress, the daughter of James I, once reigned over Bohemia as Queen of Hearts. THE FARMERS OF DENMARK. Over 89 Per Cent. of Them Afe Sald to Own Their Farms. three things, according to Frederick Howe, in The Outlook, which made the country. of Den mark unique, are peasant ownership, nearly universal co-operation, and the political supremacy of the peasant class. Denmark has "a farmer Par lament, a farmer Ministry, and a far mer point of view in its legislative enactments." Over 89 per cent. of the Danish farmers are sald to own their own farms, the average size of which j= thirty-nine acres. A farmer who has paid one-tenth or more of the purchase price of a farm can borrow. from the State Treasury on mortgage, at four per cent, to pay the balance. The rallways are State owned, and conducted to pay wages and expenses. City wages are de termined by the agricultural index. Intensive cultivation and coopera tive buying and selling have made the Dane the best farmer in the world. The farms, says Mr. Howe, are cult} vated like market gardens, the chief pewoducts of which are butter, eggs, bacon, poultry and fine stock. There are now 1,087 rative dairies, comprising a membership of be tween 90 and 95 per cent. of the far mers. These export to England near 1y a million dollars of butter per week. The egg-export society is another ex- ample of co-operation. It was organ- ized lu 1895, and has developed an export business of over six million dollars per year. The eggs are stamp- ed, and expertly graded. Emphasis is put on quality, rather than on guan- tity, and hence the products command the highest market prices. The TEACHING HORSES TO STAND. They Must Be Taught to Be Absol rm A tear or a single horse that will stand perfectly still until asked to move forward, is about as sure a test of the kind of a horseman the driver is as can be found, says J. W. Sang ster In The Canadian Farm. How often do we see some spirited horse stamping around, backing up, then straining on the rein, while its is alternately jerking at the "THE GIRL AND THE EAGLE" Lights That Failed to Solve a Dark Mystery The mystery of "The Girl and the Eagle," & new "turn" in the pro- gramme of a London theatre, was monster of an eagle, lathered in lumi nous paint ,which held in its claws a lamb-like little lady so dead to that feeling called "the of suspense," that she trilléd a ¢ song as she floated over the upturned faces in the stalls. ' She kept her head and her heart calm and her voice in tune even while hovering over a sinister-looking device of millinery with pins sticking from it like quills upon the fretful porcupine. And she was not in the least dismayed when gentlemen In the audience be- gan to strike matches to see how fit was. cone. The inquisitive little flames flashed up one after another, but "The Girl and the Eagle" remained a dark se cret. They disappeared together into an arrangement of black draperies on the stage, and when the lights of the theatre wefe turned on, as they were immediately, the mechanical bird had delivered its pretty parcel behind the screen, there were neither wires above nor rods bneath to show how the voy: age had been accomplished. ° Thus, thanks to the Peeping Toms of the wax vesta world, the success of the pretty mystery was all the more conspicuous.

"Re: tween the rich man who does nothing himself and the tramp there is really no moral distinction, excepting that one is presumably clean and the other certainly dirty." ( ) Work fell roughly into two divisions --thinking, and thinking and doing. The former was a very limited class, and a man who only thought old thoughts in worse language than was viously used was only an artistic of loafer, Independence of character and de flance of public opinion, he added, were in themselves good things--not that which arose from obstinacy or sullenneas of temperament, but that which came from the reasonable use of intelligence. We never got a leader of men worth having who did not as a boy defy public opinion and it was because he learnt to do that wisely and at the right time that he after wards was not a follower but-a leader. When we got the characteristics mentioned in combination with a great tellect and a first-class education we ad the greatest instrument for mov- ing the world; when, in addition, the man was an athlete. we got the para gon. Of the three---muscles, brains, and character--the greatest was char acter. FRUIT IN THE OKANAGAN The Latest Reports Say That Pros pects are Excellent It is estimated that over 500 car 10ads of fruit will this season be ship- ped from the districts surrounding Okanagan Lake, in British Columbia. From present indications, there will be over 100 carloads of peaches grown for shipping. Summerland alone esti mates to ship 26 carloads of peach fruit. The cherry crop is the best in the history of the Valley. A great number of the fruit ranches last season sowed cover crops as root protection, and its beneficial results are seemingly demonstrated in the increased yield of the orchards that were so treated, and the estimated yleld of the Valley for this season. Fruit men are grad ually learning more regarding cond! tions that influence the crop and it is almost safe to say that such pre cautions are being taken as will pre- vent the disaster which the severe weather wrought upon the 'orchards in many of the valleys of British Col umbia a year ago. More land in the Okanagan is being brought under irri gation, and this summer is witnessing much increased plantation. Farmers in general are quite jubilant over the expectation of having a record crop ONE TOO MANY Discretion is a good thing, and Reilly, the. tailor, had a heap of it.
