‘OLD JOE, THE NIGHT WATCHMAN (From the Pall Mall Gazette, London.) How often on returning home late on a dreary winter’s night has our sympathy gone out to the poor old night-watchman as he sat huddled up over his cage fire, overlooking the ex- cavations which our city council in their wisdom or otherwise, allow the different water companies to make s0 frequently in our congested streets. In all weathers and under all climatic conditions, the poor old night-watch- man is obliged to keep watch over the companies’ property, and to see that the red lights are kept burning. What } & life, to be sure; what privations and re hardships; no wonder they have aches and pains, which nothing but St. Ja- cob’s Oil can alleviate. a “Old Joe” is in the employ of the Lambeth Water Works, and is well t and favorably known. He has been a night-watchman for many years, in the course of which he has undergone many experiences, What with wet and cold, he contracted rheumatism and sci- atica, which fairly doubled him up, and it began to look a serious matter for old Joe whether he would much longer be able to perform his duties, on which his good wife and himself depended for a livelihood; but as it happened, a passerby, who had for some nights no- ticed Old Joe’s painful condition, pre- sented him with a bottle of St. Jacob's Oil, and told him to use it. Old Joe followed the advice given; he crawled home the next morning and bade his wife rub his aching back with the St. Jacob's Oil “a gentleman gave him,” and undoubtedly his wife did rub, for when old Joe went on duty at night he met his friend and benefactor, to whom he remarked: “Them Oils you gave me, Guv’nor, did give me a doing; they was like pins and needles for a time, but look at me now,” and old Joe began to run and jump about like a young colt. All pain, stiffness and soreness had gone; he had been tell- ing everybody he met what St. Jacob’s Oil had done for him. Old’ Joe says now he has but one ambition in life, and that is to always to be able to keep a bottle of St. Jacob’s Oil by him re for he says there is nothing like it in the world. : St. Jacob's Of] serves the rich and the poor, high and low the same way. It has conquered pain for fifty years, and it will do the same to the end of time. It has no equal, consequently, no competitor; it has many cheap imi- tations, but simple facts like the above tell an honest tale with which noth- ing on earth can compete. The Dog Governess. The lowest rung in the industrial lad- r would seem to have been reached when a woman of education and refine- ment hires her services by the hour in the interests of “my lady’s dog.” “Dog governesses” is the title given to a wo- man who calls daily at certain houses of wealth, and, for a consideration, s the dog or dogs for a constitu- tional in the park. She also oversees the animals’ bath, and attends to every detail of the canine wardrobe.

FROM SASKATCHEWAN, WESTERN CANADA. i In a letter written from Prince Al- bert, Saskatchewan, one of the dis- tricts of western Canada, by Henry Laughlin to Dr. C. T. Field of Chase, Michigan, and which appeared in the Reed City (Michigan) Clarion, ap- peared the following: “If any one should ask you how I like it up here, tell them I am perfect- ly well satisfied; for me it is just the Place. I have as good a piece of land as ever laid outdoors. Wouldn't ex- change it for the whole of Lake Coun- ty, or at least the township of Chase. “Of course, I have not been here very long, but as much of the country as I have seen it cannot be beat any- where. We had as good crops here last fall as I ever saw, and everything gets ripe in good shape. We had as good ripe toes as I ever ate in my life. There is no better place for stock on the continent than here. Horses and cattle will do as good run- ning out all winter here as they do where they are fed all winter there. Have built me a residence and now all T want is a wife to keep house for me. I have some breaking already done on my place, but next summer I intend to have more done and then I will be ready for business. “We have had a very fine winter so far. It has not been much below zero, if any, excepting about a week in the middle of November. It has been quite cold the past day or two. We are in log shanties, and they are just muddied up on the outside, and noth- ing has frozen on the inside ag yet. There is no wind or rain, just nice steady weather all the time.” Apply to any agent of the Canadian government. The New Trade Intelligence Bureau of Norway. Consul General Bordewich of Christi- ania, Norway, who, by the way is from Renville, Minn., and is the father-in- law of M. W. Dowling, furnishes an in- teresting report on the trade intelli- gence bureau which the Norwegian government has established to aid trade and commerce. It is to be one of the burdens of the state department. Its object is to pro- cure from abroad information which may contribute to promote the welfare of Norwegian commerce, navigation, industry, agriculture, the fisheries and handicraft, and likewise to furnish for- eign countries -with intelligence which may be of service to Norwegian trade. The bureau, which shall be established at Christiania, shall assist all branches of trade, by providing them with de- tailed particulars as to markets for Norwegian goods, duty, freight, and everything relating to transport and credit, shipping dues and charges, state of and conditioas existing at seaports, consular fees, compulsory certificates of origin, making up and methods of packing of wares, etc., and, likewise, as to where and how the various branches or Norwegian trade can obtain their requirements. The bureau shall, until otherwise ordained, forward all reports of general interest to Norwegian trade to all the houses and guilds throughout the country. Information, will, as a rule, be supplied free of charge. Spe- cial expenses (except postage), such as those entailed in procuring information respecting credit, analyses, procuring samples, telegrams, etc., shall be repaid to the bureau by the inquirer. Jidbits of News ‘ ev fra Scandinavians; FROM VIKINGS’ LAND. Over 1,000,000 Persons of Scandina- vian Hirth in the United States. According to recent census statistics collected by Scandinavians, there are in the United States 1,067,687 persons of Scandinavian birth. These, with their children, born in this country, number 2,181,166—quite an armoy of bread-win- winners, Of the first and second gener- ations in the United States, the Swedes are almost as numerous as the Norwe- gians and Danes together. They num- ber 1,084,882, as compared with 787,836 Norwegians and 308,488 Danes. Of those born in Scandirav‘a. there are 574,625 from Sweden; 338,426 from Norway; 154,616 from Denmark. Min- nesota leads all states in the Union in the number of citizens from the land of the Vikings, having nearly one- fourth of all in the United States, the total being 236,670—115,476 Swedes,104,~ 895 Norwegians and 16,299 Danes. Next in numbers are Iilinsis, Wisconsin, ‘Iowa, New York and Nebraska. The Swedes outnumber their breth- ‘ren in every state in the Union except Wisconsin, South Dakota, North Dako- ta and Hawaii, where the Norwegians are the most numerods, and Utah, where the Danes lead the other two branches. On the whole, this branch of the Teu- tonic family has avoided the Southern ‘states, excepting Texas. In North Car- ‘olina, South Carolina and Indian Terri- tory there are less than 200 Scandinavi- ans. The following table gives the num- ber of Scandinavians in the various states and territories having 1,000 or Food Comes High. While Denmark is the greatest dairy country in Europe, and dairy methods are much in advance of what they are in other countries, there is very little profit in the industry for the farmer. According to some rather exhaustive figures prepared for the Dairy, of Lon- don, England, by C. W. Sorensen, it costs on an average of over 20 cents for foo? alone to produce a pound of but- ter.

Is Diabetes Curable? Halo, Ind., Jan. 27th.—In answer, Mrs L; C. Bowers of this place has this to say: “I had Kidney Trouble which, neg- lected, finally ran into diabetes; my teeth all got loose and part of them z2ame out; I passed from one and a half to two gallons of water in twenty-four hours, and such a burning sensation at- tended it that I could hardly bear it. I lost forty pounds in flesh and was very much discouraged. “Two doctors treated me, and I took every Kidney Medicine I could hear of, but got no relief whatever from any- thing till I began to use Dodd’s Kidney Pills. “Seven boxes of this remedy drove away every symptom I have men- tioned.” It is said that Count Snoilsky is the only member of the present Swedish academy whose works have been trans- lated into foreign languages. Strind- berg, on the other hand, shows up with ninety-three translations of his works, with Ola Hansson, Selma Lagerlof, Gustaf Geijerstam, Ellen Key and oth- ers high up on the list. It is certainly not a high compliment to the literary talent of the academy. 154,616 388,426 Totals .. 674,625 OPPOSED TO TRANSFER. Mow Von Jessen Says Danish West Indies Inhabitants Stand. Franz von Jessen, editor of National 'Tidende of Denmark, arrived in New ‘York recently from a two-months’ visit to the Danish West Indies, whither he had gone to ascertain the sentiment of the inhabitants regarding the transfer of the islands to the United States. He found nine-tenths of the people opposed to the transfer. He said: “Take St. John’s, for instance. That i sthe smallest of the islands, and its population is mostly composed of ne- groes. I have talked with the leading men of those colored inhabitants, and it is surprising how much they know about the conditions—I mean in a po- litical sense—of the United States. They do not overlook the fact that your country offers them more opportunities for the industrial development of their island than ever Denmark will be able to give to them; but, at the same time, they do not forget that it is doubtful it they would receive such liberal treat- ment form the American government as they do from the Danish govern- ment, “The same feeling holds good with regard to St. Thomas, where the blacks also far outnumber the whites.

It is still too early to estimate how far civilization has been advanced by the life work of Jean de Bloch, the Russian writer whose death at War- saw was announced the other day Practically throughout M. Bloch’s ac- tive life he was devoted to the study of the science of war, its methods, its causes and its political and economic effects. His study of military equip- ments and methods led him to the be- lief that war, always a horrible thing, must be infinitely more terrible in the future; that, in fact, war was becom- ing so deadly that first-class powers could no longer resort to it, opposing armies being unable to exist within striking distance of each other. His moral convictions led him to evolve a plan for international arbitration. The Czar, who had been strongly im- pressed with M. Bloch’s pictures of war, virtually accepted this plan in outlining his call for the peace confer- ence at The Hague. That conference writers in the twelfth century men- tioned the pastime and described the skate then in use as the brisket bone of an ox fastened to the sole of the foot and bound around the ankle, while the person thus mounted pushed himself along the ice by means of an iron-shod stick. And it is said that in the museum at Cambridge, as well as in the British museum, there are bones thus ground for use as skates. Later came the wooden frame, with an iron or steel runner. This was some time in the fourteenth century. In the six- failed signaliy to bring any lasting as- surances of peace, but for the influence M. Bloch exercised in bringing it about as well as for his contributions to the entire subject of international relations he will be long remembered.
