To young Canadians of this day, who enjoy the fruits of the priva- tions of the. pioneers, the story of the North-west rebellion of '70 is a tale that is told. - In the vivid words of Rev. George Young, an eye witness of the events that ushered in the history of the North-west, the story becomes a living reality. Early in 1869 preparations were under way for the transfer of the Hudson Bay territory, including Assiniboia, to the Dominion. The half-breeds became uneasy, and suspected that the country was to be taken from them. Louis Riel, a man with marvellous power to ex- cite and dominate his fellows, fan- auswer was to browbeat and insult the minister. “I beckoned to my son, Capt. G. H. Young, who was among the prisoners,” said Dr. Young, “and unhindered by the guards we made our way to the Mission Home which was close by. Immediately I re- turned, and urged that others whose families were in need of their help should be allowed to leave at once. I was indignantly dismissed. ‘You are goingtoo far; this is my business,” declared Riel.” A TREACHEROUS TRAP. Finally it was agreed that if the besieged were to abandon what arms they had, and march to the fort, they should be allowed to go thence where they wished. They consented, but hardly had they en- tered the fort when the gates closed upon them and they realized that they were prisoners. Agnes Bald, an elderly woman, was sentenced at Edinburgh to penal servitude for seven years, for fraud and imposition in regard to money matters. . A young man named Thomas ' Muir, of Longriggs, near Tillicoul- try, while feeding a bull in a pen there was gored so severely that lie died a few minutes later. The “Fifie” has celebrated her jubilee. For fifty years she has plied as a ferry steamer between Dundee and Newport, and she looks capable of doing another 50 years.

They had no equip- ment, however, and their numbers soon dwindled ominously. Early in December fifty or sixty of these volunteers, poorly equipped and insufficiently oflicered, were placed in an unprotected position to guard some Government prow- sions in Dr. Schultz’s building. These buildings were in range of the guns of the fort, and were cut off from supplies of wood and water. iFor three days the little force ‘was beseiged. With them were three ladies who were greatly dis- tressed by the unaccustomed alarm. Thomas Scott went with a message to Riel suggesting that these ladies “I can testify to the great merits of your Emul- _ si'on, especially in all diseases of a pulmonary nature. It has saved many lives that otherwise would have yielded to consump- tion . . . we keep Scott’s Emulsion in the house all the time and all the family use it.”â€"MR. C. J.

On January 9th, 1870, ten of the prisoners broke jail, and nine of them succeeded in getting clear away. On January 23rd, Dr, Schultz, who had been marked for death, succeeded in eluding the vigilance of the guards. Later, he became Lieutenant Governor. Irritated by these escapes, it was determined that someone must die. For a long time it was talked about. Scott complained of his treatment. “You are a prisoner,” he was told. “Even if I’ am, I should be treat- ed decently,” he answered. This was taken as an insult to an oificer, and from that time Scott was doomed.

There is no medicine can equal Dr. Williams’ Piiik Pills for sto- mach troubles. These Pills are not an artificial appetizer nor a stimu- lant. They act in natur-e’s own way by making rich, red blood. This new blood gives vigor to all the 0r- gans. When it flows through the tiny veins in the stomach it-stimu- lates them and creates that crav- * ing which people call “appetite.” Then when the appetite is satisfied with food the blood gives the sto- mach strength to digest it. The nourishment is absorbed by the blood, and carried to every organ in the body. That is how Dr. Wil' liams’ Pink Pills cur-e stomach troubles and all blood diseases That is how they give health and lsiirength to weak, worn out peo- p e. __ ' Mr. H. Thomas Curry, Port Maitland, -N. S., says :-â€"â€"“About three years ago I was attack-ed with What the doctors termed acute in- digestion. The first indication was a bad taste in my mouth in the morning, and a sallow complexion Later as these symptoms developed my tongue was heavily coated. especially in the morning, and I felt particularly dull. My appe- tite began to dwindle, and even a light meal left me with a sense of having eaten too much. As I grew worse I ate barely enough to sus- tain my body, but still experienced the most acute pains. _A wretched languor came over me which I could not throw off. It seemed as if I were always tired, with but little strength and frequent violent head- aches. The remedies given me by my doctor, as well as many others, failed to restore me, or even to re- lieve nie. I was in this very unhap- py state for almost a year when I read in a newspaper one day of the cure in a case similar to mine through the use of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. This decided me to give these Pills a trial. It was not long before I felt some relief from the distress after meals, and as l continue-d the use of the Pills all languor and drowsiness and head~ aches left me and I began to en- joy increased energy and new strength. To-day I am a well man. enjoying the best of health, with never a twinge of the old trouble. and I attribute my cure entirely to the fair use of Dr. \Villiams’ Pink Pills.” These Pills are sold by all medi- cine dealers or you can get them by mail at 5O cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Wil- liams’ Medicine Co., Brockville, ‘Ont.

England’s champion fat man, a 518 pounder, who is one of the lead- ing sporting celebrities on the other side, is William Thomas Ecclestone, better known as ‘.‘Jolly Jumbo.” It is his boast that he is the biggest human being on the face of the earth. He has a carriage, chair and bed specially built for,him and a heavy dray horse lugs him from place to place. If he could have his weight in gold he would be able to salt away £30,000. But with all this avoirdupois Jolly Jumbo can move around as lively on hisl feet as a featherweight. In telling how he got this nick- name he says he once helped to put P. T. Barnum’s famous elephant Jumbo aboard a ship at Liverpool and that he rendered so much valu- able assistance that the bystanders dubbed him Jumbo without further ceremony. His jovial disposition he says caused Jolly to be tacked on later. The big man soon went into the hotel busiY'ess and opened a sport- ing resort which has been made the headquarters of many pugilists in recent years. Jolly Jumbo mean- while learned so much about boxing that he became an expert trainer of pugilists. “One of the most valuable quali- ties a trainer can possess,’,’ he said recently, “is that of inspiring con- fidence in his man. We'll, I have that, and when I am at the ring- side my lad is sure to win. “Everybody knows this is so, and one day up in Sheffield a rival patron who was backing a boxer played a joke on me that I shall never forget. The old rascal ar- ranged that turnstiles, should be placed at every entrance to the hall, and of course when I came up I couldn't get through, much less over; so my lad was nefariously'de- prived of my moral support. He- won nevertheless, so that it ended happily after all. _ .“My enormity has led me into isome pretty pickles, I can tell you. lI weigh 518 pounds, with chest 6 ffeet 1 inch, thigh 31% inches, call 23% inches, paunch 6 feet 2% inch- es, arm 23 inches and foot 9% inches long.. Once when I was going to Coventry I found I couldn’t get iinto the carriages, and when I asked {the guard to put me in his van he blankly refused. “So I had to travel as luggage in the luggage van, and when the por- iter saw me he said ‘Which side up ‘l’ because I’m farther around than up and down, and he wanted to make me pay excess luggage on myself.” “I have broken the springs and bent the steps of innumerable cabs and carts, and nine times out of ten the cabbies refuse to take me The railway carriages as a fare. “Seat five," have signs that say but when I get in they say seat three. I have to wear specially made coats, trousers and boots, and once an outfitter who made me some dress shirts exhibited one in the window and it took up the whole space. ‘ ' “I eat anything I want except potatoes, and as for the anti-fat preparations, don’t you believe in them at all. Exercise is the only thing for fat folks and I recom- mend them all to try it.” *n-nu WISE TO THEIR HABITS. “Excuse me. ma’am,” said the ibook canvasser to the lady who had opened the door in answer to his iring, “but if you have a few min- 'u.tes to spare I’d like to show you this great work on the ‘Habits of Savage Animals.’ ” . “No use wasting your time, -y0ung man,” replied the female. "‘I’ve been marzied three times and know all about their habits.” W..- KNOWING.
