WEST ROYALTY NOTES, The winter’s passing from us now, while you come right along, And, like an honest shoemaker, the sun iS waxing strong. The “ beautifal ” is vanishing, the robi- n’s try to sing, ““ Old probabilities ” declares that these are signs of spring. Our roadsare breaking up, and the sleighing is, of course, getting bad, though we should not grumble, forso far, the travelling has beer very good. The small boy isin his glory, for the smelts are here in larger numbers than ever,during this winier, and, judging bythe bauls they make—they are running a little Klondike ef their own, Some time ago there appeared anitem re ferriug tothe pretty girls of West Royalty. The said girls muet be very slack, seeing the place abounds with bachelors. By the by the later seem to spend all their epare time in driving around with their trotters, perbaps they are only cautious and think that, T’were better ne’er to know the tender smile. Than miss it when its love is needed most; To sail without a rudder all the while, Thao, having one, lose it while tempest toas’d, ” Several of our most popular residents left for the Klondike eome time ago. The latest reports they send are to the effect that the trip as far as B.C, was made in safety, aud al] were preparing to leave there for the “diggings.’ A touching incidert occured in Vancou. ver, where & dog belonging to one of the Islanders, got a glimse of his old master from the train. With a howl of joy the poor animal sprang towards his former own~r, breaking hie chain and almost fall- ing under the moving wheels in his haste to carress hia old frierd. The members of the Mayflower division of G, F’s gave several bright entertainment during the winter awd we hope to have the pleasure of atiending another before the spring is over. Semper Teranvs — COVEHEAD NOTES, The people of this vicinity have taken advantage of the good roads and fine weather by hauling their wood, longers, mud, etc. Peter McGrath and Thomas Ready have hauled a large quantity of mussel mud this winter. We are glad to hear that Mr. Reardon who has been ill forsome t me past is now able to be around again. Our echool is progressing rapidly under the management of Mr. McGuigan who proves to be acarefol and efficient teacher. Mr. ‘thomas Woldridge erected a beautiful barn last summer and iutends going into the pork raising in the spring. We wish Mr. W oldridge success. Covehead Road boasts of some fine trotting horses among which the most noted are: Parkside, owned by Thomas Keady, Flying Jib, owned by Thomas Woldridge and Montrose owned by Robert Webster.

Tiow Much Worry and Veration May Be Saved the Mistress. **Much of the cry against the tyranny and impudence of servants comes from those who exercise their authority in a disagreeable way and who do not know the first principles of successful man- agement,’’ argues Jane Lowry Cum- mings in a thoughtful paper on ‘‘Man- | aging the Servants,’’ in The Woman's | Home Compaion. ‘‘Every woman has her own theory of how the housework shonld be done, but it is not always necessary to insist upon having it done in her way provid- ed it is done satisfactorily in another way. Bridget may come wel! recom- | mended and be discharged at the end of a week or a month because her method isnot what her mistress considers the proper one. Wherever sho goes she is likely to be confronted with new meth- ods and blamed for doing her work aft- er a system which sbe has laboriously acquired at her last situation. She isa machine upon which each succeeding mistress imposes her own pet theories, to the exclusion of all others. Without reference to results she is compelled to change her method of handling the broom, building fires, attending to the bedchambers, etc., and because she is awkward at doing things in a new way she is probably upbraided and told that she does not know her business. If Bridget is quick tempored, she may re- sent this injustice, and then she is dis- charged without a ‘character,’ and her late mistress has another opportunity of confiding to her friends her troubles | over the everlasting ‘servant girl prob- | lem.” ‘*Bat Bridget is the one to be pitied. She is confronted by the more difficult problem of how to conform to the rules and whims of every new mistress under whose orders she may find herself. She knows how to do her work if let alone, and she proves this if she is fortunate enough to be employed by a housekeeper who is broad minded and tactful enough to give her a fair chance. The woman who dces not interfere unnecessarily with the work of her servants—who judges their work by results, who speaks tothem gently and treats them with consideration—seldom has trouble in | getting faithful servants and keeping | them. The display of a little tact, a lit- tle judgment, a little kindness, will of- ten save the housekeeper much useless worry and vexation of spirii.”* fs GReswnr say ei od Cherry Pectoral “We tried almost everything for asthma without success.

Now, I know a blond maiden more artless than that, With feathers as black as night, A plume laden hat with an upturned rim And a red rose, like her cheek. The tall pompons nod, and the velvety rim Shades a face Madonna meek, Is it true that ‘‘a kiss is far better than that?” I'm dum» as I win her smile. The feathers are beckoning, while pitapat My heart keeps throbbing the while. Ten tips gently nodding, and each one #curl— I vow Il am dizzy with bliss! "Tis an audacious hat; she’s a mute, modest girl— Shall I woo with words or a kiss? Now, the lass in the Gainsborough hat who was kissed By the poet in the song Simply looked so coquettish he could not resist, But this lassie might think it wrong. Still, I'll follow his method of courting and try To steal a draft from her lips. Ehe is timid and chaste and alarmingly shy— The girl with bold ostrich tips. The chapeau, top heavy, almost hides her eyes Of fond, forgetmenot blue. Oh, will she be angry or show sad surprise When I dare begin to woo? Heigho! something soft swept my cheek, I de- clare— And my yet innocent lips! But if it were kisses I'm—quite unaware; I'll swear ‘twas only the tips! —New Orleans Times-Democrat.
