Jadis, an jeune ltalien se re posait après une tâche bien ac. complie. 1l avait fondu une sé- rie de cloches, au timbre doux et harmonieux, et il éprouvait | le sentiment d'avoir aecomp'i une œuvre parfaite.

Pendant de nombreuse an- nées, 1 refusa de se séparer de ges chères cloches; elles lui sem- blaient des créatures vivantes. “Les vendre, disait-il, me ferait | l'eflet de vendre mes pioyres enfants.”

La dure nésessité le contrai. guit à la fin, de céder celies-ci. Le saint prieur d'un monastère, situé sur le lac de Côme, devint leur heurenx acquéreur. On paya an jeune homme une somme assez considérable, et, pour ne pus s'éloigner de ses bien-aimées eloches, aveo cet ar-

gent 1l se fit construire une pe-| tite villa dans le voisinage du monastère. De sa demeure, le! entendait |

Mais, hélas ! combien rarement | en ce bas monde nos plus légi times prejets sont exaucés |. Une terrible guerre féodaie ra- vagea l'Italie, et le jeune homme, bien eontre sea gré, se | trouva engagé dans la lutte.

La paix rétablie, 11 reconnut | qu’un changement eomplet sé-| tait opéré sutour de lai. Les membres de sa famille avaient émigré, ses amis étaient sou argent disparu,et sa gen-| tille villa des bords du Gôme no lui éppartemait plus. Une circonstance l'afiligea particu-|e lièrement : le conveunt détruit | de fond en eomnble dans les com- bats, rss p'us, et les olo

jeune homme était aussi artiste que eelui qui produit des toiles merveillen:s es faisant l'objet de l'admiration universelle, aban-

donna l'endroit témoin de son

yageur e >rrant sur la terre. 11 visita de nembreux pays à la recherche de 6es cloches |

dont le sonvenir ne Île

la nuit, leur carillon

considérait

comme un vagabond, et les en-

fants, effrayés fuyaient à sen appreche. 11 m: archait appuyé surun baton, ses cheveux a-

courbée ; mais sur sa physiono |

raie noble et belle se lisait une expression tout à la lois de bon- té et de douleur.

| L'air était deux et suave, les eaux de la rivière ondulaiest avec grâce, et les lumières de la |viile se reflétaient dans l'onde |pure. Soudain. des tours de l'é- iglise s'éleve le son de “l'Auge- Jus”, et, aprés les trois eoups, resonne la musique du carillos argentin.

Le batelier arrêta le léger es. quif et se mit à évouter.

ui ireland ?” The propounder of the questiou, Juhn J. O'Sbea, answers his own query, ani 1 so doing reviews the ev-nts leading up toths iaauguration of the new councile, dwells up- on the gratifying conduct of af fairs by these councils, and sug- gesis measures that should be adopted to obtain a wider con- trol of Irish interests. 1t is to be hopcd that Mr O'Shes's stir- ring appeal to the landed class will prove effective in making them remember that “the hour calls upon them to be mp and doing like men—to remember at last that they, too, havre a country.”

À beautiful Christmas phan- tasy. “St. Catherine of Boston, by S. L. Emery accentuates the lesson nf the season.

À very pathetic story is “The Child That Never ärew Un», by Katharine Tynan Hinkso», written with the delicacy of touch and depth of feeling eha racteristie of all Mrs. Hikson's work.

The “Book Reviews” and ‘Question Box” contribute their share towards compietiog this Christmas number, and the :ïl. lustrations are in them3selves a story of the joyous season.

TOBACCO HEART,

Have you been QD smoking a good / deal lately and 5, feel an occasional twinge of pain round your heart. Are you short of breath, nerves unhinged, sensa- tion of pins and needles going through your arms and fingersf Better take a box or two of Milburn’s Heart

C> and Nerve Pills and get GPL eured before things be- Here’s what Mr. John James, of Caledonia, Ont.,

has to say about them: ‘‘I have had serious heart trouble for four years, caused by excessive use of tobacco. At times my heart would beat very rapidly and then seemed to stop beating only to commence

again with unnatural rapidity.

‘{This unhealthy ac@on of my heart

caused shortness of breath, weakness and debility. I tried many medicines and gpent a great deal of money but could not get any help.

Last November, however, I read of a man, afflicted like myself, being eured by Milburn’s Heart and Nerve Pills. I went to Roper’s drug store and bought a box. When I had finished taking it I was s0 much better I bought another box and this completed the eure. My heart has not bothered me since, and I strongly recom- mend all sufferers from heart and nerve trouble, caused by excessive use of to- bacco, to give Milburn’s Heart and Nerve Piils a fair and faithful trial.”?

Milburn’s Heart and Nerve Pills are 50e. a box or 3 for #1.25, at all druggists. T. Milburn & Co., Toronto.

But Mrs. Douglas derived little benefit till she used B.8.B.

Proof after proof we have been furnishing how B.B.B.

Here's the case of Mrs. John Douglas, Fuller, Ont., an ac-

‘I have used B.B.B. for impure blood, pimples on the face and sick headache. I tried a great many remedies andspent dollars for doctors’ medicine but derived little benefit. I then started using B B.B. and only took four bottles when my skin became clean and free from all erup- tions. My other troubles disappeared also and I am now in perfect health.”
