TE SEEDING NO INJERI
Experience Has Proved That Early Spring
- Does Not Mearr Big Crop.
'A despatch from Ottawa says: Official
advices from the West 'ars to the etOp
cutlook are satisfactory. The bulk of
the seeding has been completed and ow-
ing to the moist condition Of the Soil
is believed. that the .backwardness of
the season will not be so prejudicial as
generally believed in the East.
It is pointed out thrit the okatimers
- in the West are of the opinion that
the shortness of The • growing teason
a-thero does not. operate against a good
crop, and that as a rule the best crops
• have not been produced when the
-Spring is kxceptionally early or the
teeding conipleted at an early date.
In support• of this contention it
pointed out that ISS1. when seeding
was not completed by the end of May,
a splendid average crap was ,garnereel.
while in le,8-1, 1.886, 1889 and 1897 seed-
ing was late, but the trep yield was
quite satisfactory.
One official of the Interior Depart-
ment summed up the situation -on Vved-
nesday when.he said; "There is no need
for alarm. If the lateness -of s•eeding is
ominous of anything is ominous (.1
geed crop •prospects. The NN'est is not
worrying; it is the East which is shaw-
Mg elf the anxiety. - , e.

• CHAPTER IV. _
Although• the•one dream -which pro-
=mised brightness to his 'louded life had
just been-dLssipated, Edward Annesley
.drove batik to -Gledeswerth 'in no de-
spondent frame of ini•nd. The evening
sky shone with a holier lustre than
usual : pis. horse seemed to -fly like seine
.•'air -borne immortal charger, instead• of
• • prosaically trotting over the hard roads.
It was as if he had atteinpted'to enter a
• room inti -of music and intrth, and had
found hiinself instead in the dim co
,_speeds of some hoary cathedral. ILstenur
to solemn prayer cadences 'an& dee
organ thunders.
When.. he reached hame he found a
•card with a half-forgotten name upon
"'Major hfc!Ivray,"•gird was told thatthe
_
tnajor, hearing he would return that
',evening, had promised :to call again on
:the chance of finding him, which he did.
Major Mclrvraees regiment had been
sem • on -foreign service a few months
after the death of Nog. Annesley, with
whom he had beconeer melt' acquainted
'after his first introdu'..6n to him at the
• meet at- the -:Traveller's Rest. - He had
recently returned to England, and was
.stationed at a large garrison town. with-
, in two hours of Gledesworlh, whence he
. • had come- that day • intending to return
before night. At one time Edward An-
nesley had. been in the habit .of meeting
•Major Mcllvray constantly, and had been
on sufficiently intimate terms -with him
to
find fault with him .and • turn his
•ioibles into good-humored ridicule; but
be had now become such u solitary, -that
he scarcely remembered how to_weloorrie
• friends. and' received the major with a
,grim coldness --that would have diecom-
nied most people, looking at film as
much as to say, 'What on earth do' you
•want?"
+++++++++♦4+++++++++++
genial season,' or of that potent national
beverage which expands the hearts and
stimulates the wits of North Britons, is
uncertain, but some...,ng effected a
transformation in Major Mcllvray that
Christoias ' eve. The enthusiastic Celt
emerged from beneath the thin veneer
of what for want of a better name in -ay
to Called the languid swell. In those
days -the masher was not ; the beau, the
dandy, the blood, the buck, and the -ex-
quisite had long since passed into sha-
dowy. memories ; but the swell,' the
l heavy swell, diffused a gracious fra-
il
Major Mc f lvray was -not .easily rebuff-
ed he did not appear to notice the cold-
_ Hess of his reception, and sat by the fire
with his usual composure, making oom-
monplece observations in the spasmodic
• ':drawl which he affected, and secretly
istudying Edward's face, and comparing
-` .him with his former self.. -
- When he heard that be was passing
=
the night at, the village inn, Edward
r.• asked hkn to' transfer his quarters to
Gledesworth, which he at once consented
to do, to the surprise of Annesley, who
•only asked him as a matter -of form, a
forr;r he had almost forgotten to •use, so
enisch .ot a recluse had ba become. '• "My "My mother" said Nitiesr Mcllvray,
•"remembers meeting you at some dance
t her house. You came u ' from Alder-
s we me. a• you wou , call
when in -town." •
"She is very good. 1•, don't -visit
"Find it a bore? • So do I. But do as
- • Romans do." -
The blood rushed darkly to Edward's
:. ?ace. Mcllvray had riot been long in
.. ,England, he. remembered; it was pro-
b'able that he had heard nothing of the
;'•imputation which rested upon him. Yet
Lady Mcllvray was in the way.of hear
• :---ing it.- Ile relapsed again into the grim,
.• tress which Mctivrtfy's friendliness had
- ' • der a moment dissipated,- and began .to
... wonder to what -he was indebted for this
' unexpected visit. Presently his guest
observed that there were a great many
ie liars in. -the world. But Edward remem-
- leered that David had made a more
sweeping observation to fire same pur-
' iwse, and he had himself discovered the
- fact so ,early in life as to think it too
'Obvious for comrnent.. -
During dinner Major Mcllvray said
.. that he had heard so much scandal •since
'his return that he WaS'sick-of it..Ed-
..ward turned hot again and looked tierce-
... Tyr across the table so as to meet the
- -other's eyes. But flea' other- went -'on
• tranquilly . enjoying. -his•. dinner, and
. spoke of Colonel Disney. and other artil-
lery. officers whonrtre hlket been meeting
- recently, and of the dhenges and promo-
-lions Which has .occurred•.nnrong them.
"Never believe a word I hear,"- he added,
with apparent inconsequence, "especially
---wtmn-i'knew it 'to be lies."
' nneesiey asked him point-blank .if he
- • _,lad heard any 'rllmors • respecting' hi'rh.
"Heard them , all," he replied, tran-
- •-._quilly.' "Widiculous ho h. . Disney's an
old woman:" • - -
This was comforting Once.he.had de-
tsl pised- Mc[l:ruy_•as a shallow coxcomb.:
full_ of affectations, redeemed' by. some
good points. Yet he had sucle olid stuff
in him as refused lobe lurnedfroni
`fief in a friend. •
"Wanted you to leave tire service," the
-lighten:ler continued. -" \Vespeet' you
:fez not 'giving'in."
Yet • Annesley's mind- rui'g,rve 'tarn:

preached by the garrutgus sage of Chel-

Major Mcllvray was one of this bro-
Iherhood, the lineal descendant of AIci=
blades a-nd Agag, a swell of the first
water. Though apparently incapable of
the rough and virile consonant "r." to
which his tongue imparted the feminine
soltnees of a liquid "w," this evening the
whiskey, or some more. ethereal- spirit,
brought out a fine manly Highland .burr
in his speech with a ane manly interest
in thing:; in general, together with that
indescribable Imaginative exaltation
which is inseparable from the men of
the kilt and tartan. • Hts .eyes became
dreamy, they seemed to gaze at tar -oft
things-; the breath of the moor and the
loch seemed to sJgh through- his strongly
s:spiraied `speech ; he spoke of eerie le-
gends,, of haunted corries and pools, of
Wraiths and- apparitions, and of the
.strange -gift of second -sight. But this
point was only reached when they, were'
smoking a -final cigar ttward midnight
and listening for the caroisingers. The
less imaginative mind of his host, whose
Saxon• stolidity was dissipated by' no
more whiskey than good-tetlowshipshlp
demanded, was nevertheless sympathelie

with -zest into fhe story of the Gledes-
worth curse, and was amazed at the
present Annesley's proposition of . sell-
ing it. 'I don't supRose it would fetch
much," the latter added, "but 1 should
litre to. get rid •of it at any price."
Major Meth -ray gazed- horror-struck
upon him and took some more whiskey;
the Crornwellian Annesley seemed to
frown darkly, while his hand apparently
moved toward the hilt of his great
sword. .
-The living Annesley looked at the are
in silence for a few seconds and then
spoke, as 'one -who -dorsa; yet fiTars, to
disburden 'himself of a secret: '
"And you are really convinced that it
was your, brother's wraith you saw that
day when the mist- lifted from the hill?"
fur. asked.. .
"Perfectly. , lie died at that 'your pre-

Annesley paused' again, then he 'be-
gan to narrate what had occurred to
flim ' fn' the previous summer. •
It was on the shores of Lake I.enian ;
h, was making an excursion with his
sisters and brothel from Veytiiiix-to •the

resoling at mitidny in a pine -Wood ' • if'

not changed apparently since the day he
last saw them, the day of Paul Annes-
ley's death.
For it was truly the face of Paul,
though clean-shaven, and the head of
Paul, though tonsured and rising ,from
the dress of a monk ; the long white
robe glowing incandescent in the suns
rich light, the passionless features
wearing an unearthly calm were those -of
a monk, yet how should a monk have the
dark, blazing, blue eyes and scarred face
of Paul Annesley ? •-
Edward Arinesley's heart stood ',sti11
.and his mouth grew . parched as he
gazed, -but - an instant truly -for the
phantom figure passed swiftly and
silently without pause -yet an instant in
which, his thoughts were so many and

Edward dashed, but the figure was no-

water -fall. A black fir- wood -lay in the

Mcllvray smiled and looked thought-
fully into the fire for a moment before
he spoke. "That is, indeed, being cer-
tain," he then said, 'I will dispute no
more. But it is strange that no one be-
lieves like an unbeliever. For you said
tc-night that you did not believe in'ap-
parilions." • -
"Or in the curse of Gledesworth," Ed-
ward replied with a faint smile. "It is
true, Mcllvray, that nothing is so. -con-
sistent as inconsistency.",'
"Well ! I will tell you one thing," con.
tinued Mcllvray, "If I were in your
place I would never -speak of this thing
again." .
. "I never shall," he replied, frozen back
to his usual -reserve -by' this unexpected
incredulity. The last of the anal cigars

account of . his .sudden night ; for. .upon

quieting thoughts, end:;from that•mo-
ment had never opened his lips upon
thissubject 1i11 now.
"Why Should my cousin's spirit ap-

at .the -close of his' narrative.' "In all
your stories, tis !re was a purpose in the
apparition -a warning of some kind." -
"[t was not Paul Annesley's spirit," re-
turnaxlcl:Ivray with -decision. . '
"Then what was it?". asked Annesley,
whose nerves were still quivering from
the memories tie .h•ad . just evoked, and
who was surprLsed at the skepticism dts-
played by so, ardent a•° ghost -seer as
Major bfcllvray. - -
"That was very strange- that he
should come- as &•monk,". replied Me-
Ilvray, who. in spite of his scepticism,
was excited by the story, "very strange.
It" was not a CM hone even. why would
tie appear as a monk' • No, Annesley, it
was not a spirit, that passing figure. }t

Alice soon.heard what had taken -place
in the twilight of Christmas -eve. The
fact - that Mrs. Rickman had been told
of Edward Annesley's intentions tow.ard
her daughter, and that' Sibyl had been
obliged to. confess to her mcther that
she could not entertain his proposals,
was sufficient, to insure Alice's know-
ledge of the whole history. Mrs. Rick -
man's nature-w•as transperen,t_and sym-
pathetic; all her innocent thoughts and
guileless hopes and' fears were. shared
-with those about her: and Alice, upon
whom she depended most, .enjoyed the
most - ample share' of her confidences.
Until Mrs, Rickman had "talked things
over'. with -some • sympathetic listener,
.she was unable tie get .any.. arm_ mental•
grasp of facts. .
"1 cannot understand -Sibyl," her mo-
ther commented:la Alice, "she was evi-
dently struck wills hitn..frorn . the first.

'If she did, it would be her secret, not
ours;' Aare saki. "Let us not discuss
it; it 'Is not' fair. Perhaps it may take
place after ail," she added, inconsequent-
•ly, "especially if not talked about,"
Gervase'e anger was • too 'deep for
words when he learned that Sibyl had 1
deliberately -thrown away -the chance cit •
happiness that he.had so carefully plebc
ted and' arranged for tier, He was still t
firmly, convinced that no other marriage .1
would be possible to her, and this con-
viction' Wits eonflrrrted by a, carefully
guarded conversation . he had with her-, s
8 conversation in which, solar as words a
went, she no ed mor than- a match for 1
him, But, when people know each other, •

thought, especially when associated with ►

e corresponding change of color and -
outline. Ise was angry with Sibyl -for a
poser, but, of course, he was far more
angry with' Annesley, and attribrtted the, g
failure of his suit to Borne clae sinsies on y
his -part, •• •
"These gond-looking fools do --al Least
know how: to make love commonly," 'he- y
thought. He even hinted this ��arit of t,
dexterity vaguely to Alice. who quickly �.
Made trim :see that the subject • w•as not Ih
one to whi•cch she would permit any' re- "
ference.. a
With February came the opening of Ire

narrated the details of this moving scene_
ti the hero's parents ; told how he sal
at ease with 'folded arms on one of the
comfortable benches, and listened -to a
king- debate, sometimes making holes, •
and sometimes yawning till the tears
came into his eyes, and _how, .when a_

'a as that the cabman would be deprived

THREE -FACTS
For Sick Women
To Consider.
F1lgsr.-That almost. every operation in
our .hospitals performed upon women
becomes neeeeeary through neglect of ouch
symptoms as backache, irregular and
painful periods, displacements of the
female organs, pain in the side, barring
sensation in the stomach, bearing -down
pains, nervousneee, dizziness and sleep-
lessness.
Srxorre.-The medicine that holds the
record for the largest number of absolute
cores of female ills is Lydia E. Pinkham'e
Vegetable ' Compound. • It regulates,
strengthens and cures diseases of the
female organism as nothing else can.
For ' thirty years it has been helping
women to be strong, curing backache,
nervousness, kidney troubles, inflamma-
tion of the female organs, weakness and
displacements, regulating the periods
perfectly and overcoming their pains. It
has also proved itself invaluable in pre-
paring for childbirth and the change of
life.
'Num. -The great volume of unsolicited
and grateful • testimonials on file at the
P'rni:ham Laboratory at Lynn, Mass.,
many of which are from time to time
published by permission, give abeolnte
evidence of the value of Lydia E. Pink-
laaries Vegetable Compound and Mrs.
Pinkham's advice.
Mrs. Pluldu im's Standing Invitation
to Women. -Women suffering from any
form of female weakness are invited to
promptly communicate with Mrs. Pink -
ham, at Lynn, Mass. All letters are
received, opened, read and answered by
women -only. . From symptoms .given,
your trouble may be located and the
quickest and surest way of recovery ad-
r-ised.-Mrs. Pinkham is daughter-in-law
of Lydia E. Pinkharn and for twenty-five
rears tinder her direction and since her
decease she has been advising sick women
free of charge. Out of the vast volume
of experience in treating female ills airs.
Pinkham probably has the very know-
ledge. that will help your case. Surely,
any woman, rich or poor, it very foolish
-if she does not take advantage of this
generous offer of assistance. - --

Early on Tuesday morning our
residents were surprised to find
that snow_ had fallen to the depth
_ of about two inches during the
night. The exceedingly backward
- weather is beginning to cause con-
siderable anxiety among the farm-
ers.
James McFarlane shipped a
-."week ago his herd of twenty-
two fat cattle, averaging about
1400 pounds each, the price being
.0 five and a half cents per -pound.
This was no doubt as good a lot of

is a beauty' and they have now
complete uniforms. ..
One of the largest crowds ever
assembled in Claremont was that
which came on Victoria Day to
witness the foot -ball tournament.
The day was a success in every
• particular, and While the games
_° were in -progress the best of feel-
. iug prevailed. Three : teams
entered the senior class the Sham-
rocks, of Green River, Maple
Lester •of Pickering, . and the
f 'Thistles, of Claremont. The first
_ . game was played by the first two
. named teams, the Sham rocks
winning by 2-0. The Shamrocks
- and the Thistles' then took the
• • •field, the Shamrocks again winn-
ing by the same score and thus
capturing the valuable $25 cup.
In the Intermediate class there
were also three entries, Green
d
first, Bassam winning by 1-0,
Pickering and Balsam then enter-
ed the conflict to decide the own-
ership of the $15 cup. After a
lively game, Pickering won by
2-0. Willis. Lehman; of Almira,
refereed the game to the entire
satisfaction of all concerned.
In the 100 -yard loot -rate, Gor-
don Traf won • 1st and D.
Tran 2nd, and in the running

concert in the evening was also
a success, the hall being crowd-
ed to overflowing and a large
number failed to gain admittance.
The programme was given by J.
H. Cameron, humorous vocalist
and elocutionist and Miss Big -
wood, soprano, of Toronto, and
the continual applause proved
theta to be popular entertainers.
The concert is said to be the best
ever given in Claremont... The
receipts at the gate were 875,
at the stand 866.82 and at the
concert $77.45, • making a total
of 'fiver $219. The committee
wish to thank Mr, and Mrs.
Rumohr fur the use of their
piano. which Mr. Cameron high-
ly recommended for its beautiful
tone. They also wish to thank
the young ladies whose valu-
able assistance did so much to
make the day a success.

The white flies which trouble fuchiae
and other plants may be exterminated
11, the following manner: Place the
plants in a -frame covered with -mus-
lin. one side being arranged to open
and close, .-Leave- the side open unlit
the flies have congregated on the plants.
Lust quickly with pyrethrum - powder
end close the side. Repeat a few tunes
and, the -Ates will have disappeared.
Sow the pansy seeds In June for au-
tumn blooming and for spring blooms.
Phlox drummondi and portutaca should
be sown in the fall for next spring's'
flowers.
To destroy the- red ant which is in
summer months a great trouble to the
gardener as well as housewife, place
fresh .meal bones where ants are found;
•they- will soon collect in vast 'numbers
on the bones, and may be easily de-

HAS YOUR BABY "NERVES?"
C.Inuiees Are You May Raver Produced
the Result Yourself:
A mother who brings up her baby in
such a way that it has "nerves," does it
one of the greatest possible wrongs. We
are quite too nervous as a nation, and
we alt suffer accordingly, says the New
York Telegram.
Therefore, why not try to start your
baby's life in such a way that its ner-
vous organization will be soured and its
physical condition much better in con-
sequence ?
No mother delibe
nervous. But. many times, many more
than should be, she does the same tiring
dnconsciously. •
An infant's nerves are delicate and al-
ways ready to. jump into evidence. They.
aro all_ likely to • grow, • and the surest
preventive against this ,undesirable de-
velopment is quiet. -
Talking much . to a young baby,' let-
ting its aunts .and cousins see it is plea-
sant, unless practiced in great modera-
tion, it is bad. Talking and strange
faces excite, and if there has been an
undue amount of either, baby's next nap
will be uneasy and a restless one.. and
he 'will not begin to get .the strength
from it that he should.
Sudden noises, like bonging a door, or
jumping' unexpectedly ' at an infant,
should never be allowed. The latter
frequently makes baby laugh, but it ex-
cites the- tiny mind:
Noisy toys should never be permitted,
ane, indeed, the'quietee the amusements
the better. Baby loves nothing better
than his own. ten toes to•play with, and
will amuse himself for five minutes et a
time with them if laid on a bed where
be may kick and stretch.
• More 'than one baby Is weakened ner-
vously by .over -entertainment: • '•
Continual nervousness' on the part• of
an infant is so apt to Indicate -a wrong
physical condition, that . it should be
looked into. '
- If, however, •
baby is, already nervous,.
it does not necessarily Mean Illness, The
beat way ,of finding precisely what, it
does mean is to institute a- system of
quiet" living. Let the little' one see no
strangers end only a few of those whom
he knows. . Many faces, even' familiar
ones. should be kept away. -
The room should 'have 'a softened Tight
with sun, of course, but not glaring, and
all noises should be kept from him. If
he has been much amused or had many
toys let there be only a few and those
soft ones. A batt and his own Toes are
enough: There: should be no artificial
light at night, • or if one is necessary .it -
should be shaded that it will not shine
upon; him. •

The .cullivation- of .the. sisal plant in
the Bahamas has increased sn much in
the four years since it 'was introduced
by Caw. Shen `that it is pushing the
y cage industry very hard. •
• A writer in the Itasary .'Magazine pre-
dicts that the full development. of the
Ohre plant will make a wenderhul roai•
tion for the little, island in the commer-
cial world.
The sisal plant has always grown
18 a
from twelve to fifteen years. Only the.
poorest and. scantiest soil'•is necessary,
and' no climatic effects influence the •
growth of the plant in the -least.
All the available 'land in the• island-• •,
has been ,bought up by the capitalists
since the sisal- boom, and the 'Govern •
-
ment has already received a fund et
8:'50:0001 from bounties and grants,which
will be used in public works on the is -
:}and. • The sisal industry has spread to -
neighboring islands, and plenty of enrs
ployment is given the natives at from
I'0 cents to a dollar a day.
They ,have also been allowed to buy
Government.land in ten acre lots „at $10
each, paying for it out of the first• year's
crop. 'Tn this way many of then have'

Paris, France, is afflicted with a curi-

walk on their hands.

THE OLDEN FLAG. '

Raise high the royal standard!

The prestige of thy might sustain,
'thounoblest of the earth!
Great Canada, thou fair, free land!
A world looks- forth to thee;
Nc alien hand thy hand shall lead;
Thou'lt bow no 'servile knee. -
Then rally round.. the olden flag!
The loved red, white and blue;
Let traitors scheme, er boasters brag,
To Canada prove true.
Float on. 0 flag of Empire vast! •
Long may .those colors •wave
O'er many a blood -bought heritage;
O'er many a hero's grave.
The grandeur of thy fame doth light
The fields our fathers won;
The noblest gift which' valiant sire
Could e'er bequeath his on.
Droop ndt. 0 peerless standard!
O loyal hearts and true!
Forget not ye the olden land .

Forget not hearts and hopes are one,

"I suffered with stomach trot'I"P and

nervous and experienced a continual

medicine from the doctor, but it did me
no good.

"I 'hope that all who are afflicted with
