The Bread We Eat.

So eminent an authority as Dr. Richard- son, of London, has said that a white loaf is only half a loaf, as it is deficient in nu- ‘triment to the extent of 40 per cent. Still it is the ambition and pride of most house- wives to excel in the whiteness of their bread.

The Teacher

Who advised her pupils to strengthen their minds by the use of Ayer’s Sar- saparilla, appreciated the truth that bodily health is essential to mental vigor. For persons of delicate and feeble coustitution, whether young or old, this medicine is remarkably beneficial. Be sure you get Ayer’s Sarsaparilla.

The collapse of a portion of the wall

separating the two mines was the cause of the threatened calamity. A crash, then a sudden rush of water, surprised the miners. Inu a few minutes the mine was flooded“to a depth of four feet, and still the waters seemed unchecked. Escape was impossible fer the rushing torrent was between them

wnd the shaft. Soon the waters rose be-

youd the depth of the tallest man, and only by perching themselves in elevated posi-

tioas were they kept from their deadly grasp. Meanwhile a terrible scene was going on above. Word of what had happened spread speedily and the families of the imprisoned miners rushed panic-stricken to the scene of the impending danger. They were too much excited and tgfrified to think of ra- tional relief, and when H. P. Meem, mining engineer of the company, called for yvolun- teers to face with him the dangers of the mine, the people held up their hands in horror, and refused to give him heed. But Meem was not to be baffled, and alone he Jescended the shaft. The struggle was along and perilous one, and more than once the brave rescuer al- most abandoned hope. But the cnes of the people above who were brave enough to urge him to a task they would not risk, and the groans of the despairing men within urged him on. By this time the waters had some- what subsided, but a strong current delay- ed him. He had to craw! over an irregular bed a distance of 1,500 feet, the water al] the time up to his armpits. At last he reached a group of men, all of them para- lyzed with fear. He counted them. There were but forty-three. Where were the other two / A boy and « man, he was told, had rush- ed to a rooui-like part of the mine, in fur- Meem begged some of the men to aid himin their rescue, but agaia he ‘ound fear the ruling foree. Alone he went in search of the two, Finding them, he placed the boy upon his shoulders and ordered the man to follow. When he re- joined the group he had difficulty in per- suading them to make for the shaft. They only followed when they saw him disap- pearing with the boy ou his shoulders. All reached the shore ia safety. Their recep tion by their anxious friends above was of the most emphatic nature. To-day Meem is the hero of the neigh. borhood, for in many a home it is felt that a husband or brother has been saved by him from death. The loss to the coal com- pany wil be very large.

The writer had this morning the pleasure of a drive through the farming settlement of Peter’s Road, and was much impressed with the beautiful and varied sights that everywhere met his gaze.

In the distance lay Nova Scotia, between, the Gulf of St. Lawrence, its waters like a huge inirror ; nearer still, and almost at his feet Murray Harbor, with its little islands and bays, the whole forming as picturesque and delightful a scene as could possibly be imagined,

Ou each side of Peter’s Road and extend- ing for nearly its entire length, lay fields literally groaning under the weight of grain, all of which was in stook awaiting transfer to the storehouse.

Everywhere could be seen and heard the busy farmer preparing for the daya work, and summoning to his side as much help as it is possible to procure.

it may be briefly remarked in passing that this neighborhood is a remarkable ex- ample of rapid advancement. Not many years ago, where the comfortable homes of its people now stand, was nothing but a dense growth of beech and birch, but by the sterling industry and perseverance of many of its present inhabitants, it was rescued from the wooded state and brought
