SUNDAY 18S ASSASSIN’S DAY, the Nihilist Has His Chance at Public Men. On That Day Ss ay seems to be a favorite day for } assassinations in Europe. The deatn of Canovas oa thisday recalls the long of rulers who have either met or buce: owly escaped it on the Sabbath at the bai.d3 Of anarchists, cCOmmuunists or The tact that in the old world Sunday is the great festival day, when the rulers go arvund and give their subjects an oppor- tunity to look upon and get near them, is perhaps a 3ufficient explanation. Aivxander Ll, the Russian Czar, was return og to nis palace on tne afternoon of Suncay, March 31, 1881, when a dynazite bomb was thrown at his carriage. The carriage was blown to pieces and Alexan- der dicd within a few hours, President Carnot, of France, was at Lyons attending an industrial snd art exbib:tien on Sunday, June 24, 1894. That night, as he drove to »« theatre, Cesare Giovanni Sarila, a young Italian anarchiet, sprang upon the step of the president’s carriage and planged a knife into his abdemen. Carnot died within a few hougs. President Faure narrowly escaped death on Sunday, June 13th last. He was driving on the Bois de Boulogne to witness the Grand Prix atthe Longehamps race course, when @ bomb was exploded pear his carriage. It was of faulty constructioa and hurt no one. Two attempts have been made on the life of King Humbert of Italy on Sundays. On Sunday, Yarch 17,1878, Giovanni Pasa- nante climbed :nto the King’s carriage io the streets of Naples and stabbed hum in the thigh with asword. The King fought back, cut bis assailant onthe arm and held him at bay until the police took charge of him. On Sunday, March 26th, 1293, a religious fanatic named Berardi attacked King Humbert in the streets of Rome, but was captured before he did any harm, Wiiliam I. af Germany, grandfather of the present Emperor, was twice attacked by would-be assasains on Sunday. On June 14, 1861, Oscar Becker tried to shoot him, and onJune2, 1878, Dr. Nobiling repraied the attempt. Nobiling blew his Own brains out when he saw that he had failed.— Washington Star. —_— ———__ 7+ @ WATER THREE CeNTURIES AGO, It needed a very bold man, says the Hospical, to resist the medical testimony of three centuries against water drinking. Few writers can be found to say a good word fur it. One or two only are concersed to mxintain that, “when begun in early life it may be pretty freely drunk with impooity,”’ and they quote the curious instance given Sir Thomas Elyot, in his Ca-t'« of Health,’ ” 1541, of the Cornish men, “many of the poorer sort which never or very seldom drink any other drink, be notwithstanding strong of body, and j:ke and live well until they be of great age.” Thomas Hogan.the medical +choolmaster of Manchester fame, contesed in is *Haven of Health,” 1859, designed fer the use of students,that he knew some whe drink cold water at night or fasting in the norning without hurt; and Dr. James Hart, writing about fifty years later could even claim among his acquaintances “some honorable and worshipful ladies who drink little other drink, and yet enjoy more perfect health than most of them that drink of the strongest.” The pbenomen. on was ucdeniable but the natural inference was none the less to be resisted Sir Thomas Elyot himsif is very certain in spite of the Cornish men, that “there be in water causes of divers diseases, as of swelling of the spleen and liver.” He complains oddly also that “it Aicteth and swimmeth,” and concludes that “‘to youne men, and them that be of hot complexion, it does less harm, and ecometimes it profiteth, but to them that are feeble, old aud melancholy it is not convenient.” “Water is not wholesome cool by itself for an Englishman” was the verdict of Andrew B orde—monk, physician, bishop, ambas- sador and writer on fanitation—as the result of a life’s experience. And to quote again the Englishman’s Doctor:— Both vvater and question, Are enemies to heath and good digestion. > small beer, we make no But the most formal indictment against water is that of Venner, who, writine in 1622, pooderously pronounces to “dwellers in cold conatries it doth very greatly deject their appetites, destroy the natural heat and overthrow the strength of the stomach, and conseqvently confounding the concoction, is the cause of crudities; fluctuations and windiness iv the body.” Field Commissioner Eva Booth, the commander of the Salvation Army in Canada, intends visiting the provinces shortly.

Recklessness does 4 moet pay, either in . our work or our pleasure. When people read of a young man who has been killed while penform- ing some teck- less feat on a toboggan ‘or at ~ some other haz- ardous sport, their sympathy is mixed with surprise that any human being should thus care- . lessly risk Hie. Ai, There are thou- . sands of men who ere tecklessly risking their lives while they go about their common every-day avoca- tions. They over-work, they do not itake sufficient time from business or labor to eat or sleep or rest, or to care for their health. Outraged nature throws out danger signals, to which they pay no heed. They suffer from bilious or nervous disorders, from gick headache, giddiness, drowsiness, cold chills, flushings of heat, shortness of breath, blotches on the skin, loss of ap- petite, uncomfortable sensations in the stomach after meals, loss of sleep, tassi- tude and trembling sensations. These are the advance symptoms of serious and fatal maladies. All disorders of this nature are cured by Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. It restores the lost appetite, gives sound and refreshing sleep, makes the Cigestion per- fect, the liver active. It purifies the bleod and makes it rich with the life-giving ele- ments of the food. It is the great bloed- maker and flesh-builder. It makes the body active and the brain keen. It is the best of nerve tonics. Thousands have testified to its merits. No honest dealer will urge upon you a substitute for the little extra profit it may afford. F The man or woman who neglects const- pation is gathering in the system a store of disorders that will culminate in some serious and possibly fatal malady. Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets are a safe, sure, speedy and permanent cure for constipa- tion. One little ‘‘ Pellet’’ isa gentle laxa tive, and two a mild cathartic. Ys Faning. An English rector in an agricultural parish found his own sermons accepta- ble enough to his congregation, bat not #0 those of his assistant. ‘*‘Why don’t you come to hear Mr Jones?"’ he said to the leading farmer. ‘*He’s an excellens fellow and preaches far better than I do.”’ ‘That may be, sir,’’ wae the grave rejoinder, ‘‘but we've been fnqairing and inguiripg about your curate, and we can’t find as he's got emy property, and we don’t like to be told of our sins by a person as hasn't got no property.’’ —Strand Magazine, The Yale lock manufacturers have proved that in a patent lock baving siz *‘steps,’’ each capable of being redaced in height 20 times, the number of changes or combinations will be 86, 400.

Concerning Calf Feeding—Cream Ripem ing and Batter Saiting, Calves fed three times daily for the first month are less exposed to the dread. ed trouble scours. New method oil cake is not so suit- able for replacing the fat of milk for calf feeding. Flaxseed is better. Butter fat is worth more sold as but- ter than sold as veal.

If 150 pounds of butter annually is | the dividing line between profit and | Joss, the cow that makes 200 pounds annually is worth twice as much as the | mne that makes 175 of the former, same to feed. Meny farmers own unprofitable cows sad do not know it. Quantity of milk isan unsafe guide, since quality and Jeveth of milking period are potent matters, Color of milk is not a safe guide provided they.all cost the ! whereby to judge of its-‘eontent of fat. | ; | Barber-——-Ah, but you see, sir, you Yellow milk is not necessarily rich poor milk. lf one cow returns ‘$15 profit, two cows do not necessarily give $30. Many pecple build up herds, however, as if the opposite were the case. It is important that cows in milk should have all the salt they wayt whenever they want 3t. One sided rations do not produce as much butter as properly balanced ra- tions, neither do thes ;produce butter of as fine quality. Trouble frequentty ‘arises in churning due to improper feeding. Other things being equal, a varied diet results in more and better butter than a narrow ration and is less likely to cause diffi- culties when churning the cream. We have tested buttermilk with as much as 6 per cent of fat in it when we knew that one canse was @oarse pasture with many objectionable ‘weed growths in it. The summer feediyg, a mixture of the cereals and the legumes, gives more sat- isfactory results thax either separately, besides giving moreiproduce per acre.
