Tommy Pomeroy's pneumonia led to a discussion at the sewingâ€"club between an advocate of mustard plasters and a believer in coldâ€"water applications. "What a variety of cures there are,” remarked Miss‘Evcrett, pleasâ€" antly, with a meaningr look at the others. "Yesterday i heard of the ‘laughing cure'!" "Indeed!" The minister’s Wife hastened to help in steering converâ€" sation away from the belligerents. "You've kept yourself so young, Mrs. Glen, you must, have Something interesting to contribute on cures.” The old lady thus addressed was a recent comer, but it was gradualâ€" ly dawning on they had a. saint among themâ€"one 0f the unobtrusive, happy, healthy .kind. Children Were already calling her “Aunty Glen." "Do you believe in mustard?" manded the determined advocate. "For those that it. benefits, yes," said Mrs. Glen, gently. “But tell us how you have kept well.” hastily interposed Miss Everâ€" ctt. “I don't mind telling, you’ll think it’s a funny kind cure," Mrs. Glen replied, with a smile. "Once, years ago I had a dreadful headache. I hadn’t slept a wink the night beforeâ€"J was grieving about a friend that hadn't treated me right. “I was just brooding away, going over and over in my mind what I‘d say to Mehitabel Record some day, when I saw that a big grudge was growing right up inside of me. "Now,’ said I to myself, 's’pose Me- hitabel Record did really do it, is that a reason why you should grow a grudge?’ "So I set right about forgiving her as hard as I could, and pretty soon I just loved Mehitabel Record, no matter what she’d done.” The needles were motionless. The speaker, although flushing under the gaze of many eyes, continued: "And when I’d thoroughly forâ€" given Mehitabelâ€"why, my headache was gone, and I felt nice all over. It set me to thinking. After that, whenever I had an ache or pain, I practised going away by myself and forgiving some one. It worked won- derfully.” "Did you always have some one,” asked the minister’s wife, softly, "to practis: on?” deâ€" but I guess of “Deary me, no!” said Aunty Glen. “Evt-rybody’s always treatâ€" I ran out of folks I ed me so nice, to forgive long ago.‘ "How did you manage your 'cure’ then?" "Oh. along about the same time I ran out of aches and pains, too. I haven't lost a day in bed in forty- five years." There was a pause. Miss Everett. with shining eyes, broke the silence: “Ladies, I move a vote of thanks toâ€"to dear Aunty Glen, for a bit of very deep and very dear philoso- phy. And I move, also, that we adopt her cure and practise it â€" with mustard plaster or without, as each one likes.” __.._._+.__.â€" BEARERS 0F FAMOUS NAMES.

His Majesty Will Inspect 40,000 Troops on September 18th. / The announcement that his Ma- jesty the King is to hold a review of volunteers in Edinburgh on Septemâ€" ber 18, has created intense satisfac- tion all over Scotland. It has long been known that Lord Provost Cranston has been exerting himself to the utmost in order to get his Majesty to hold a. review on some thing like the scale which Queen Vic- toria held in August, 1881, when al- most 40,000 volunteers were on pa- rade from every part of Scotland. The arrangements are in the hands of the military headâ€"quarters in Scotland, who now occupy spacious offices in the palatial buildings of the “Scotsman.” ARRANGEMENTS ON FOOT. It is believed that the military authorities in Scotland have already put themSeIVes in Connection with the War Office with a view of ascerâ€" taining what allowance is to be made toward the expenses of the volâ€" unteers who may come to the review from a distance. as soon as deâ€" finite information has been obtained upon this point no time will he lost in communicating with commanders of corps throughout the country. Edinburgh is sure to make a good contribution to the gathering, for it will be the desire of the brigades of which Lord Provost Cranston is so popular a commander to turn out in such numbers as will demonstrate to his Majesty how admirably he has interpreted the feeling of the volun- teers of the capital. All over Scot- land the same feeling is believed to prevail. and there is general expectaâ€" tion that throughout the country the day will be observed as a generâ€" a1 holiday. This will mean an influx of people to the capital on a scale which will help to make up for the lack of visitors recently complained of. The various railways will un- doubtedly ofler tempting facilities which will insure an immense attendâ€" ance of spectators. It will provide, too, another of the too rare oppor- tunities which people from every part of Scotland have of testifying how popular his Majesty is among his Scottish subjects. HELP VOLUNTEER MOVEMENT. The. review will also tend to infuse new life into the volunteer move- ment, which in Scotland, as in some 1parts of I‘Ingland, has rather suller~ ed in popularity within recent years aas the result of what, rightly or wrongly, is regarded as the want lof genuine practical interest on the part of the war office. It is not yet known whether the Queen is to accompany the King, but, if his Ma- jesty is accompanied by his royal consort. this will only lend addition- al eclat to what has every prospect of beinLr a memorable occasion in chottish history. Unfortunately the ‘last review took place on what. was inllt‘ of the wettest days on record. illut be the Weather what it may this itime. there is no doubt but there will be plenty of enthusiasm on the ocâ€" ’cnsion of the King’s visit. and it will not be surprising if the muster of volunteers at the review exceeds even the great gathm‘ing which marched past Queen Victoria in 15191. All‘lfA It IS IN GOOD HANDS. (ienernl Sir (‘. Tucker is not the man to leave anything undone that ‘is calculaltd to ensure the success of l ,the review. and once he returns to lradtptarlers in l~‘tlinbur;.:h from his _ tour of the Scottish volunteers no‘ ltinie will be lost in pushing forward itlie needful arrangements. l _ ¢___._..

How the Independent Order Foresters Has Grown. of The Supreme Court of the, Indepenâ€" dent Order of Foresters held its triennial session at. Atlantic (‘ily, New Jersey, recently. The reports submitted at this meeting show the society to be. a wonderfully prosperâ€" ous one. An Independent Finance Committee investigated all the secur- ities, et(‘., and reported that, they found the business affairs of the orâ€" der managed in a thoroughly liusi~ ness manner, the. investments safely and wisely made, and that. no losses had been incurred during all the years of the orders history. The order's acmunulated funds have in- creased in the last three years $3,â€" 272,345.51. The, order's osition is _ P growing better every year, for instance, the increase in accumulated assets during the last t\\0 years, 1003â€"4, was 31.34 per Cf‘lll., while. the increase in insurance at risk during the same period was only 6.97 per cent. The order has increasâ€" ed its accumulated funds since the last. meeting of the Supreme Court more rapidly than it increased in any equal time previously. During the 313 working days of the year the order pays out $8,892.89 per day, and each day puts away a surplus of $3,907. The ordcr’s accumulated funds now amount to over $9,000,â€" 000, and these, the Committee re- ports, are all well and safely invest- ed. The society has added 11,000 members net for each year of the past triennial period. No changes were made in the rates, the Supreme Chief Ranger contending that the rates of the order at the present time were ample. All the Supreme Executive were reâ€" elected, with Hon. Dr. Oronhyatekha at their head. It Should be added that the death rate of the order is low, indeed muCh lower than it was some years ago, and the average age of the membership is only thirtyâ€" sevcn. The medical work seems, therefore, to be well and carefully done. As a fraternal society the Independent Order of Foresters cer- tainly has been a wonderful success, and something of its financial strength may be understood from the fact that the reports show that it has already enough in its treasury to pay all probable death claims for about five years without. collecting any premiums from any one of its membersâ€"Toronto Globe, August 15. ._â€".._...9.. -..___ RING IT IN. “110 made quite a little Speech when he proposed last night,” conâ€" fided Helen, blushingly.
