B.—Mail orders promptly and care- ‘methods to secure an improvement in the mee The Scott Act. (Montreal Gazette. ) The defeat of the Scott Act in Drum- mond is nct a cause of surprise. While nominally in force it was apparent that it was not observed in many parts of the county, from reasons that have prevailed almost everywhere that a local option law has been adopted. The enthusiasm in be- half of a moral influence that led to the adoption of the law evaporated, and there was not left sufficient steady sentiment among the general public to support a rigid enforcement. A prohibition law that does not prohibit quickly loses the sympathy of those of the community whose votes in the first place are secured by favor for what they admit is a good cause rather than by conviction that it is a duty resting upon them to make the measure effective. In Drummond the friends of the act were weakened also by the fact that racial lines were more or less sharply drawn in the contest, and the voting in some degree be- came a struggle of French versus English, where the English were inthe minority. The result is unfortunate for the prohibi- tionists, at a time when their efforts are being pu: forth before the Royal commis- sion to show that the prohibition of the liquor traffic is both desirable and desired by the peop'e of Canada. Coming after so many other cases in which the act has been repealed, it must be regarded as an evi- dence of popular disapproval of local op- tion, at least in so far as the Canadian law has been able to enforce it. The Scott Act has been on the statute bocks for fifteen years, and has been amended many times with the object of making it more effec- tive. During that period contests have been held in seven cities and 72 county municipalities. It is now in force in 32 cour. ties, including Drummond, which has just pronounced against it. The summary of the voting is as follows: — Carried 3 times and still in force......... 1 cs 6 ay a) aT te aoe ote 32 Defeated and not submitted again..... ic Carried first time and defeated second.... 28 Carried twice and defeated twice....... ies Carried once and defeated twice.......... l Carried twice and defeated once..........

Inefficient en- forcement, and an incapacity to devise existing state of public opinion, are without doubt the causes behind this state of affairs, which, in so far as it represents a going bak in the cause of temperance is a matter of re- gret. A Languishing Industry. London Iadustries is by no means con- fident of England's ability to msintain her supremacy in the manufacture of cotton. The competition of foreign manufacturers had led to repeated reduction of wages and of working time in order to keep the Lan- cashire mills going. The profits have been reduced to a very low average; and the limited markets available offer no prospect of an increase in the near future. ‘The spinning trade,” says this journal, ‘‘in the bulk stands worse than it did ten years ago, notwithstanding the fact that foreign manufacturers procure much of their yaros from Eogland, and from them produce cot- ton goods which displace in many impor- tant markets these woven here. The re- ports of the cotton-spinning companies show that the profits for some years past have averaged under 3 per cent. Last half year profits touched the vanishing pvint for about half the spinning companies, and many of them suffered heavy losses. The weaving branch is even more unsutisfac- tory, and in Blackburn and other towns in which this is the chief industry there has been a considerable decrease in the number of looms employed. Many of the weaving sheds have changed handa since the strike of 1878, in many cases being taken up at half their rental by men of practical know- ledge and energetic character, but of small capital, who are not able to stand much loss. Just now weaving sheds are unsale- able and cannot in some instances be let on any termswhatever. Some of the older firms keep their works going chiefly from « seuse of obligation to their workpeople, whom they have employed for sv long, and who still trustfully look to them for work to earn the means of living. The reduc- tion in price has been brought about by the competition, nut only of such countries as France, Belgium, Germany and Switzer- land, but also of America and India. For- merly Lancashire found a great part of her market in these countries, but they are now not only in great part supplying their own wants, but also in some cases compet- ing with us for the neutral markets of the world.” It is not surprising, in view of facts stich as these, in Eagland that all the great centres of industry are crying out for a change in the trade policy so as to give some protection to British trade et home and abroad. Mennonite Homes. Chortiz and Schanzanfeld, in Manitoba, are like oases in the vast and treeless prai- rie, because the Mennunites have succeed- ed.in growing trees where other cvlonists have failed. Each house stands in about a quarter of an acre of garden, planted around with poplars and ash-leaved maples; inside these, which serve as @ wind-break, are plum and crab-apple Lrees, and a sort of hedgeof gooseberry and cur- rant bushes. In the centre of the garden are flower beds, blazing with the scarlet poppy and fragrant with mignonette. The beds are divided from one another by a wicker-work fence, woven into 4 fanciful pattern. The h uses themselves are large, square frame buildings, banked around with a white clay wall or terrace about three feet high and a foot aud a half broad. The effect is quaint but good, as the wall is smooth and well made. The house door opens directly into the living room, with its floor of concrete of their own manu facture. Round the sides of this—the largest and most interesting room in the house—are high, broad, yellow benches for sitting or sleeping, and under the window stands a long table. Running out into the middle of the room is the front projection of a Russian furnace made of white clay, and with a great iron basin sunk in the top. This is used fer various purpuses—to heat water fur wash. ing or to catch the blood of a pig when it is killed, blood pudding being a favorite dish with them. Behind the basin is an oven for breaking bread, which they make in huge loaves, fitting the whole interior so that a Mennonite loaf would easily cover the top of a little drawing table. The back of the furnace rises to within a foot or two of the roof and forms a greater part of the partition between the living room and the bedroom behind it. In this second room the back of the fur- nace looks like a small square chamber, with a narrow, deep opening in the side. In this recess the women place the kettle or anything to be boiled. Neither wood nor coal is burned, but a fuel made of manure and clay—a sort of peat. All the refuse is collected from the stables and mixed with cley and water; it is then pressed down with a roller and left to dry, after which it is cut out in square blocks with a spade and piled ready for burning. It can easily be understood that when this atuff is ignited the odor is more overpower- ing than agreeable. Screwed against the wall is a curious old- fashioned uncased clock, made more than a century ago, with its large brass hands and pendulum worked in elaborate and fantastsc patterns. These are cleaned and polished until they gleam like pale gold, and the women take especial prida in them, as they are heirlooms.—San Francisco Chronicle. News Notes.

After Pulver had been fatally cut the man left him and cooly walked back up the track a short distance, where, meeting an approachiog freight train, he deliberately threw himself iv front of the engine and was killed instantly. The only conclusion that can be arrived at is that the deed was done in a sudden fit of insanity. Tus Wilmot Spa Waters have been wonderfully successful in restoring health. Many visitors to the Springs come in weak- ness and pain but a month drinking and bathing quite restores health. ‘ A. McN.
