Speed to be Attained by Trains in England With New Device. !A despatch from London says: xperts in behalf of large British railroads have reported favorably upon the invention of a safety apâ€" pliance which is a modification of the bogie principle. The invention practically makes impossible the deâ€" cailment of trains while rounding urves, thus allowing increased Tt is claimed that it will is to make the 185 miles lon and Manchester in ‘Almost all mothers are wellâ€" meaning, but few are thoroughly well informed on the needs of baâ€" bies. â€" Through the teaching of health officers, the press and many organizations, information is beâ€" coming more common. It ought to be universal. Every intelligent woâ€" man can do a world of good, in this respect, by taking an interest in children whose parents are not well informed, though it must be borne in mind that tact in the anifestation of such interest is l less desirable than knowledge. Both men and women are inclined to resent officiously given advice. Percentage Of PSr,Grain in West is Smalls SF& Expert. A despatch from W'!nnipeg says : W. J. Black, prineipalSof the Maâ€" nitoba Agricultural COD{ge, says the present crop outlook is one of the brightest in the history ‘of the province. ‘The crop is in exceptionâ€" ally fine shape at present, and the percentage of poor grain is very small. One of the chief functions of civic health departments in large cities has become the saving of the baâ€" bies, and the good work done in this respect alone would justify the existence of such a branch of the public service, if any justifiâ€" eation were needed.

Whether she finds an answer to these questionings or not, she will doubtless come to feel more keenly the advantages of havâ€" ing a small kitchen, of making a moderate investment in upâ€"toâ€"date utensils and appliances, and of givâ€" ing a fuller employment to woman‘s natural endowment of "gumption"‘ and knack. 185 MILES IN TWO HOURS.

Hoshea son of Elahâ€"There are ho. special _ manmifestations: of strength in the character of this king. To be sure he is singled out of all the kings of Israel, for comâ€" \mendation (rather negative) to the jeffect that, while he had done |some evil, it was not as the kings of Israel that were before him. But be had none of the faith nor the tpositive qualities of the reformer. \|Doubtless he did not replace the |calf at Dan which the Assyrians had taken away. But he lacked the enâ€" ergy to bring back the old worship. Indeed, he seems to have lived with one eye upon the Assyrian power and the other upun his own interâ€" est. He was an opportunist, as he was a puppet. It would have reâ€" â€"quired a man of broad, disinterestâ€" ed statesmanship, courage, and unâ€" yielding trust in God, to steer the already battered ship through the ‘stormy waters of this eventful era. 9.

Some conjecture that a battle was fought, and the king captured, before the walls of the capital. At any rate, the cause of this sudden vengeance is not hidden. Hoshea was playing a double ‘andâ€"losing game. If his cessation of payment of the annual tribute had been followed immediâ€" ately by the arrival of the Egypâ€" tian forces, he might have won. But his ruin was in the procrastinâ€" ation of King So. When it was too late Hoshea tried to propitiâ€" ate Shalmaneser with gifts. But the Assyrian monarch was aware of his duplicity. 6. Ninth year of Hoshea â€" Saâ€" maria was taken B. C. 722. Sarâ€" gon, probably a usurping officer of the army, had succeeded Shalmanâ€" eser the year before. Samaria was not destroyed.

When Pekah had. been disposed of, Hoshea, who was a conspirator, was given this vassal sovereignty in Bamaria..

Lumberman Just Out of Bush Cut Down at Chapleaun. A despatch from North Bay says: Robert Stevens was cut in two by a Canadian Pacific Railway express at Chapleau Friday night. Btevens was 38 years old, came from Quebec, and had been working in the bush near Chapleau. He came out on Friday to go home.

Contractor Fires Four Shots, Then Turns Pistol on Himself. A despatch from Prince Rupert, B. C., says : H. Wood, a prominent contractor here, attempted to kill Alexander Matheson at the Seal Cove fish freezing plant on Saturâ€" day two miles from this city. _ Wood then fired a shot into his own temâ€" ple, after having fired four bullets at Matheson, all of which missed him. In attempting to escape the bullets Matheson fell over, and it was thought he was killed. Wood then tried to commit suicide.. The trouble is believed to have been over family matters. .

A despatch from Ottawa says: A bulletin of the census and statisâ€" ties office states that the season this year has been favorable for field crops in all parts of Canada, and excellent reports have been reâ€" ceived from all=the provinces. The lowest percentage of condition is made. for Fall wheat, which sufferâ€" ed from inadequate protection in the Winter months, and also to some extent from Spring frosts. The areas of Fall wheat are greater than last year by 4.50 per cent. and of Spring wheat by 13.70 per cent. In the provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Alberta, the area in wheat, oats, and barley was 3,491,413 acres in 1800, 6,009,â€" 389 acres in 1905, 11,952,000 acres in 1909, and 13,809,300 acres in 1910, and it is 15,355,500 acres this year. The increase of these crops from 1900 to 1911 was 2,663,699 acres in Manitoba, 7,364,315 acres in Sasâ€" katchewan, and 1,836,073 acres in Alberta. A nationel laboratory was part of the plan and it is proposed that it shall manufacture toxins, antiâ€"toxâ€" ins, sera, etc., while conducting analyses.

State Laboratory to be Eestablished at Capital. _ _A despatch from Ottawa says : A national laboratory is to be esâ€" tablished in Ottawa under the ausâ€" pices of the Health Committee of the Conservation Commission. The proposal, whichh was made by the commission, has been approved by a subâ€"committee of the Cabinet Council, and it is expected that it will be given effect to very shortly. The plan was evolved by the Health Committee, the idea being the creation of. a permanent naâ€" tiome!l council of health under the Conservation Commission acting in an advisory capacity to Federal and Provincial Governments on quesâ€" tions affecting public health and hygiene.

KILLED ON WAY HOME. :; Instead of the oneâ€"piece negligee ; _| held in at the waist with a silk cord he 9 ribbon, many women delight in in the semiâ€"fitting coats or tunics to id Y~eat with a lovely skirt of muslin y | or silk. These coats and skirts are E!d]made of the thinnest stuffs, many | of the coats having a sheer silk linâ€" of! ing in white or colors, while itj through others flesh tints show. As x-‘ a rule the coats reach to the knees rlg,:;Lnd often have deep slashes at the »e-| sides, held together with ribbons or _ | cord. The sleeves are wide kimoâ€" _ | nos, coming not quite to the elbow. | Very distingue is the prevailing fashion for hosiery harmonizing !With the rest of the toilet, and a charming effect is produced by havâ€" l ing hosiery just one shade lighter ‘than the skirt. An old lady who was a passenâ€" ger on one of the ocean liners seemed very mucu more afraid of the icebergs than of fogs or storms, and asked the captain what wou!ld happen in case of a co_]lision. One o fthe most noticeable feaâ€" tures of the new fashions is the curious oneâ€"sided effect aimed at and carried out by the arrangement of the draperies or the general cut. In many cases one side of the boâ€" dice is draped with the material, while a lace net or some form of jabot falls across the other. _ One delightful evening frock, in black satin, was made with one sleeve in satin and the other in white appliâ€" que lace, veiled in black tulle. while a panel of rich silver and pearl embroidery on black chiffon encircled the waist and fell in a deep point on the skirt. A tunic of black chiffon fell over the long pointed train of black satin. ‘"‘Madam,"‘‘ the captain replied, bowing low, "the iceberg would move right along in its course just as if nothing had happened." And the old lady seemed greatly relieved. Heâ€"‘‘"Have you ever looked in the glass when you are angry *‘ Sheâ€"‘‘No; I‘m neverâ€"angry when I look in the glass." The wide, long shoulder scarf is even more popular for the summer than it was during the winter. It may be of a double thickness of chiffon in two shades, blending or contrasting, or in silk, satin or crepe de chine, lined or unlined. It may be finished simply with a hem, fringe or gathered into & tassel. Its value lies in impartâ€" ing a finish to the gown without in the least ruffling the line of neck and shoulder. The new chemises for women are cut like a man‘s shirt, slit at each side of the shirt so that it may be more narrow than that of former years. It also obviates the "riding up‘‘ of the garment under one‘s dress. This is a season of stripes, necesâ€" sarily black and white, but this combination is certainly the preâ€" dominating one. Neckwear of lace and embroidery is touched up with black and white striped satin in any number of ways.. Stocks, cuffs and jabots of Irish crochet have their edges trimmed with narrow bias folds of the striped material and occasionally the lace takes second place, serving me.ely as a border to articles made chiefly of the saâ€" tin. There are all sorts of natty little bows made of the stripes cut on the bias mingled with the motifs of Irish crochet, some of them beâ€" ing finished with pendant striped balls technically known as cherries. Sailor collars are made of lace or embroidered lawn and edged with a bias fold of the black and white about an inch wide, or they are made of the latter and bordered with lace or embroidery. . _One of the strongest prevailing influences in summer fashions is the gown of striped_ fabric; not merely a ‘‘commonâ€" or: garden‘‘ stripe, but embodying two or more widths, and possibly introducing a totally different material, in _some cases a plain one. Stripes, then, joined in reverse direction or diâ€" agonally, give a result as unexâ€" pected and ‘‘chic‘‘ in many cases as undoubtedly it is smart. The solid Peking stripes are exâ€" ceedingly fashionable in silk .or saâ€" tin and make delightful trimmings both for light and dark gowns. In glace or taffeta these stripes are very popular for the perfectly plain underâ€"dress which is worn with a tunic. The wearing of jabots is the chic of the moment. It is chic because it is not given to everybody to know exactly where and how they should be placed to be most beâ€" coming. Much skill is displayed in the donning of these jaunty accesâ€" sories, and it is not considered smart to wear a jabot at all unless it is made of the finest point lace and tulle. The bolero coat is one of the faâ€" vorite shapes for the coming sumâ€" mer. Shadowâ€"striped hosiery is shown in lisle thread of various colorings. @s2808000.082 2080 0080 Osee8te2e0e82800382 Fashion Hints FOR SUMMER WEAR AND THEK BOAT? Montreal Man Chose Strange Place to Sleep. Montreal, June 18.â€"Breaking i2â€" to a rear shed counected with the Smallpox Hospital on _ Moreau street, Albert Anderson last night chose that place above all others to spend the night. He stretched himself on a table, covered himself with blankets that had served for sinallpox patients, and, to the conâ€" sternation of the nospital authoriâ€" ties,. was discovered thers â€"stâ€"!l souad asleep this mora; ; The police were abou apparently infected im: with other priscners, w One of the most luminous obserâ€" vations upon hatred is that of Bauâ€" delaire: ‘Hatred is a precious 1iâ€" quor, a poison dearer than that of the Borgias, because it is made of our blood, our health, our sleep, and twoâ€"thirds of our love." Beaudelaite well calls it poison. A man was once swindled out of $5,000 by a rascal whom he had trusted. To the surprise of every one, he made no effort to proseâ€" cute the man.. One of his friends asked him why it was that he did not take steps to get justice. It was evident uhat Warren got into difficulties, and that Elias was in the act of making his way to render himâ€" assisvance, when he, too, was overcome. 5 i Warren Hicks was aged 50, and was a widower with three children. Elias, aged 48, leaves a widow and seven children. Dr. Routledge, coroner, of Lambeth, was notified, but stated that he will not order an inquest. ‘‘But I say unto you, love your enemies."‘â€"Jesus. Neeb lcic uce WElL Calls 1t poisOiL. For of all passions that lodge in the soul it has the most septic; heady, and yeasty quality. If we really hate a man, we ought to hate him too much to hate him. The Hicks brothers lately removâ€" ed to London from Tillsonburg, and Warren purchased what was known in the past as ‘"Twoâ€"mile House,‘"‘ on the corner of Wharncliffe Road and the first concession of Westâ€" minster. They were wellâ€"diggers, and were hired to put an old well in shape for Mr. Munroe, as it was the intention to place a windmill over it. They started to work this morning, and nothing wwrong was noticed until a Jewish peddler hapâ€" pened to pass and went over to the well. There he saw one man lying at the bottom and another douâ€" bled over some timbers about twenâ€" tyâ€"five feet down. He at once gave the alarm, and the neighbors hastâ€" ened to the scene. < The work of rescue was very diiâ€" ficult, as the well was filled with carbonic acid gas, and lights were extinguished as soon as lowered down. After a time both bodies were drawn to the surface by means of grappling hooks, but life had been extinct for some time. That is, we should not be willing to give him the pleasure of making us unhappy; and we can surely cause him more discomfort, if he bears us genuine ill will, by letting him see that he cannot disturb our peace. More practical, more mundane, perhaps, but not iess forceful, was the remark of the late Pal Morton, who answered , when asked if he did not like to "‘get even‘‘ with any one who had done him wrong: "I haven‘t time. 1 am too busy.‘‘ Why should I let my enemy rob me of my sleep! Why. for his sake, should I indulge in thoughts that are to me as black coffee at bedâ€" time and give me a "‘white night‘"‘ ! I shall put aside all feeling about him, even if it takes as much moral effort as a drunkard needs to reâ€" fuse his liquor. The word of Emerson, speaking of Lincoln, is to me freed by its very greatness from the selfâ€"torture of resentment: "His heart was as large as the world, yet it had no room in it for the memory of a wrong!" ‘‘Well," said he, "it‘s this way : If I should go to law I could posâ€" sibly regain my money and punish the fellow; but it would take me about two years to get the case through all the courts, and in the meantime a world of hard feelings One Tried to Save the Otherâ€"Both Asphyxiated. ‘ Lonodon, Ont., June 13.â€"â€"In an heroic attempt to save the life of his brother Warren, who was in distress at the bottom of a well sevâ€" entyâ€"five feet deep, Elias Hicks went to his own death on the farm of Neil Munroe, sixth concession of Westminster, near Lambeth, this morning. Both were suffocated. The Main Point to Know About Hate is That it Does Not Pay WASTE IN ANGER AND HATE BROTHERS SUFFOCATED. THE IDEAL MANHOOD, IN HOSPITAL SHED. To get rid of hate and its spendâ€" thrift results upon us, we must live upon the heights. It is all a quesâ€" tion of the plane upon which our daily thinking and feeling take place. To bear grudges, to harbor bitter animosities, to wish evil to any man, to look and hope for disâ€" aster to any creature, is to dwell in the lowlands, in the miasmatic swamps of life, and to breathe feâ€" brile and malarious vapors. Mrs. Crawford, wife of Capt. Crawford, was killed in a runaway at Westmount, and Mrs. John Milâ€" len Seriously injured. The Canadianâ€" troops for the Coronation are greatly pleased with their welcome in Britain. The strikeâ€"of coal porters in Briâ€" ta n is serfously threatening shipâ€" and fueds would be created. Now, I figure that I can make that five thousand, and more, by strictly atâ€" tending to my business for those two years, and feel a whole lot bot ter." _ This, I take it, is a good philosophy as was ever uttered in Greece. The contract for the new jail at Guelph has been let. & Hate is destructive. Love is creâ€" ative. Every angry feeling tears down something in us. Every emoâ€" tion of love hardens our life fiber. In all animal life love is the oreâ€" ative instinct and hate seeks anniâ€" hilation. Nowhere does the pure wisdom of Jesus shine more refulâ€" gently than where he says (and he practised it): ‘"‘Love your eneâ€" mies." The body of Charles McMahon of Midland, murdered at Ashland, Wis.. was brought home and interâ€" red un Sunday. 5 A GREAT TREUMPEH. If we can, by a moral effort, pull ourselves up to the mesa, the highâ€" lands, where move such figures as Antoninus and Jesus; if we can rise thus to the point where we can feedâ€"our enemy if he hunger and give him drink if he thirst, we have the double satisfactoion of trumphing over him, which is pleaâ€" sant, and over ourselves, which is an infliinitely greater pleasure. So anger and hate and all such heat against wrongdoers might be called "the hydrostatic paradox of malice,‘"‘ for to fall into bad blood against the man who has done us evil is to descend to his plane and to share with him his devil‘s brew of malignity. Next, Recorder Weir heard of the case and refused to allow any of the prisoners to be moved until the health ‘authorities investigated the case. The latest medical theory for keeping fit, says the London Daily Mirror, is to oil your skin all over once a week, and rub it in.» A wellâ€" known doctor, on being interviewâ€" ed, pointed out how, when we bathe, we wash away all the naturâ€" al oil off the skin, thus leaving the skin hard, brittle, and liable to eczema, rashes, and similar disâ€" eases. ‘"‘The oil. as the Roman gladiators knew,‘"‘ said the doctor, ‘‘made the muscles supple, and the man with the muscles supple has far more chance of being fit." Berlin June 13.â€"Herr Krueger, a ret: naval constructor, charged with scoraying naval secrets, but without treacherous intent, was sentenced to three months‘ fortress arrest. Dr. Holmes calls argument the "hydrostatic paradox of fools‘‘ â€" that is, as water rises to the same level in a small tube as in a large reservoir with which it is connectâ€" ed, so to argue with a fool is to put him on your level. ‘"And,""‘ he adds, "the fools know it !‘ . The Health Department inspecâ€" tors relieved the police guard and carried the unfortunate man downâ€" stairs to the cellar, where he was placed in a cool, dark room, separâ€" ated by thick masonry walls from any communication with the outside world. ly the turnkey heard ofâ€"the cireumâ€" stances of the man‘s arrest. Then the turnkey realized what the conâ€" sequences might be, and a panic surged through the police headâ€" quarters. Both ends of the corriâ€" dor were forthwith guarded by the police, the prisoner was seated in a chair outside the cells, while the turnkey refused to let him move.
