No medicine has ever effected as large a number of wonderful and almost mar- vellous cures as Psychine. It has had one continuous record of victories over diseas- es of the throat, chest, lungs and stomach. Where doctors have pronounced cases incurable from consumption and other wasting diseases Psychine steps in and rescues numbeiless people even from the very ve e of the grave. Coughs, Colds, Catarrh. ronchitis, Chills, Night Sweats, La Grippe, Pneumonia, and other like troubles, all of which are forerunners of Qonsumption,‘ zield quickly to the cure ' Mfis.

Through the jewels of the year, From the yellow uplands calling, Seeking her who still is dear; She is near me in the autumn, She, the beautiful, is near. Through the smoke of burning summer. When the weary winds are still, I can see her in the valley, I can see her on the hill, In the splendor of the woodlands. In the whisper of the rill. For the shores of earth and heaven Meet and mingle in the blue; She can wander down the glory To the places that she knewâ€" Where the happy lovers wandered In the days when life was true.

Prince Albert Board of Trade Initiate-3H Big Movement. ‘ The Prince Albert Board of Trade; has initiated a movement to urge upon; the Provincial and Federal Govern-l ments immediate action to prepare the' Hudson Bay route for navigation.’ They will seek the co-Operation of ev-, ery Board of Trade in the three prairie provinces. The Prince Albert Advocate, in discussing the subject points out that Prince Albert, being the most norther- ly railroad point in Saskatchewan. and a very old Hudson Bay Co. post, is probably more in touch with the north than any other city. and Hudson Bay captains who are frequently here al- ways declare that the bay is navigable from midsummer until the end of De- cember, and sometimes for a month? longer. The dangerous month, they state, is July, w’nen floating ice from the Arctic regions comes swirling through the straits, but when this has disappeared there is nothing to prevent ocean steamers running from Fort Churchill to Europe up to Christmas. The Advocate adds that the feeling of the meeting was that eastern members of Parliament would never willingly consent to the Hudson Bay route being opened, and for this reason it was de- cided to begin a vigorous campaign to demand the rights of the West. This is, perhaps, hardly a fair view to take. Doubtless some people would seek to compel the West to send out its products through Eastern Canada, even though that should be the more eXpensive way, but the great majority of eastern peOple believe that to retard the progress ofrthe West by any such 1 because the people do not yet believe it is a practical project. When it is proved to be practical. and the cheap- est mute to Europe it will be deveIOp- ed, and it is the duty and opportunity of the peOple of the West to show it is practical. Bronzed by the sun, George El-son ar- rived in Montreal recently and told once more the heroic struggle made by Lon- idas Hubbard in his effort to get through the wilds of Ungava. in the immediate neighborhood of the Labraâ€" dor coast Elson is evidently carefully guarding a. new proposition in which some of the big eXplorers of the continent are to take part, but just what remains to be seen. The youthful guide who was with Hubbard almost to the hour he died from hunger and exposure, and then took the explorer’s widow to the scene of her husband's death, has recently returned from a most successful trip with Mr. S. P. M. Tasker, of Baltimore, Md., one of the explorer-huntsmen of America. Apart altogether from the sports- man’s end or the story. Elson comes with a. tale that is wonderfully interest- ing to the public. They left Misslnavi Station, well on the northern boundary. on June 25, and reached Moose on July 11. They re- mained there ten days and then went to Charlton Island by the Hudson Bay 0033 steamer, from there to Whale Riv- er. and they were soon on the direct course home. Moose and deer were not seen, but earlboo was plentiful, and there was a. good supply 01 partridge and that class of game. There are any quantity of brook and speckled trout. Capt. John Denison, A. D. 0.. recent- 1y gazetted Rear-Admiral, with seniorâ€" ity of Sept. 18. is a brother of Lieut- Col. George T. Demson 01' Toronto. He was born in Toronto in 1853, and edu- cated at Upper Canada. College. Later he joined the Britannia training ship. ,and in April. 1867, entered the Royal #Navy as a cadet. His rise there has ;been rapid. He attained midshipman's rank in 1869, was made sub-lieutenant in 1873. lieutenant in 1878 and com- mander in 1891. Five years later be won his captain's commission. and via placed in charge of H; M. S. Firebrand in the China fleet. There he remained for four years, and was subsequently given command of the Gossamer and Big Exploring Expedition on Tapis. OPENING HUDSON BAY. AUTU M N DRESSES.

Cement, concrete and especially “re- enforced concrete” will, according to . some authorities, solve many 01' the 3 hard problems confronting the archi- tects and builders of modern struts tures. Cement is known to have been used by the Chaldeans, Egyptians. Greeks and Romans. The most ancient form of. cement was simply burned limestone, more or less pure, used very much as ordinary lime is used at the . present time. The Romans were the first to adulterate lime by adding cer- tain clay soils and slate for the purpose of making a cement or a hydraulic na- tureâ€"that is, one which would set or harden under water. Pliny, who lived in the first century A. D., describes the method ot modifying ordinary burned limestone and converting it into a form ~ or hydraulic cement. In ancient times it was believed that the best cement was made from the hardest rock, and this opinion was not modified from the time of the Romans down to the eighteenth century. How- ever, John Smeaton, the man who built the Second Eddystone lighthouse, in course of examining the various hy- draulic cements for use in the founda- tion and masonry made the important discovery that the quality of hydraulic cement depends upon the amount of clay in the limestone. This is conceded to be the most important discovery in the art in nearly twenty centuries. 0n the isle of Portland, in the south of England, there are certain quarries of limestone which have been worked for many years, in former times pro- ducing building stone. In 1824 an Eng- lishman named Joseph Aspdin of Leeds, patented a process for mixing and burning lime and clay. The prod- uct looked so much like the Portland limestone that he called it “portland cement,” from which the commonly known name given to nearly all kinds of hydraulic cement was derivedâ€"Chi- cago News. Scientific Wrecks. The German government has taken possession of a short strip of track near Berlin and is planning to execute a unique series of railroad “accidents” made to order. Every variety of mis- placed switch will ‘be tested, every pos« sible defect in wheels, axles and car equipment will be tried out, and the grand finale is to be an immense head- on collision of locomotives. These spec- tacular exhibitions are not planned by the government as a national amuse- ment. They are for the purpose of scl- entific experiment, so that the en‘ gineers and railway experts may study ways and means to prevent accidents of all kinds in the future. Railroad disasters have occurred with alarming frequency in the German em. pire. It is estimated that the German railways lose $1,200,000 annually through damages. After the causes and effects of each variety of wreck have been noted it will be the task of the government officials to devise safe- guardsâ€"St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Tallest High School Student. Carl Fletcher, standing six feet seven and a half inches in his shoes, a mem« ber of the class of ’09 of the Seattle High school, will hardly have his claim disputed to being the tallest high school student in the United States. Sopho- more Fletcher is but eighteen years old, so that by the time he reaches “man’s stature” he should have added at least three more inches to his height. The abnormal development of Carl Fletcher “upward” is not readily as- cribed to heritage. Fletcher pere is but five feet five inches, and the school~ boy’s mother is four inches taller than her husband. All of the members of the family are of normal height, al- though an elder brother, manager of the Latona drug store, is six feet two inches.â€"Seattle Times. The Biggest Telescope. The biggest telescope in the world in the Common telescope, five full feet in diameter, twenty inches wider than the Yerkes. It was constructed ten years ago by Dr. A. A. Common, a well known astronomer of England, who wanted it for research work. He died Boon afterward, and his fine telescope became idle. Two years ago it waI purchased by the Harvard college ob- servatory, which proceeded at once to mount it on the observatory grounds at Cambridge. The work has been neceo oarily slow, for mounting a great tel. Ic0pe is not like building a house. Sulphur Under Qdcklund. Most of the sulphur consumed in tin United States comes from Louisiana, where are vast deposits at a depth of from 600 to 800 feet. As there is a layer of quicksand a hundred feet thick above the sulphur, it was impos- sible until lately to get out paying quantities. Now. however, it 18 80- cured by driving down two pipes. Ono pipe carries a jet of steam, which, com. ing in contact with the solid bed of sulphur, melts it into a liquid. This in then forced to the surface by air pres- sure through the other pipe.
