It is the opinion of practically every thoughtful man in the kingdom tl at when the scandals are fully inquired into by parliament and all the frightful de tails become public property, either Prince Albert Victor will be deprived of succession, a proceeding almost impossi ble of conjecture, or thut Queen Victoria will he officially declared the last mon arch of Great Britain, and that a republic will immediately succeed upon her death. rO K K lV H o Queer Police Judge at Oalcland-Shlp Edmund has lieen made deputy lieu Canal on the Sound— Mrs Judge tenant of London.

Which did you say to take first— the drops or the powders? I'm afraid I'v o made a m istake.’ ” — Xenas Dane, in Puck. P A C K IN G A KNAPSACK. What to l*ut In ami Wliat to Leave Out— 11 lilt h For I'ellestrl.llM. Now, as to what to put into a knap sack. T h e less the better, of course. T h e art is not to put in us much uh you cun, lint to leave out as much as you cun; for, after you have burn walking for six hours every ounce tells its tale. Say you can get at your portmanteau onco a week, your knapsack ought not to con tain more than a night-shirt, a flannel shirt, three or four collars, six pocket handkerchiefs, two pairs of worsted socks, a pair of slippers, a couple ot pairs of hoot laces, sponge, toothbrush, comb anil hairbrush, soap, a small book, your tobacco,and a pair of lig h t trousers. Those gentlemen whoshave must decide for them selves whether they w ill carry th eir own razor, etc., or be shaved by the v illa g e harbor; I should recommend the latter. But recollecting that you start dressed, tho articles aliove mentioned ought to servo your needs for six or eigh t days. T h e knapsack, when packed, ought not to weigh tw elve pounds if it is to be carried by one per son for any length o f time. I was once advised on no account to go without quinine, as a most valuable medicino, and which would also act as a “ pick-me- up” in case of fatigue. Arnica, too, was suggested. Homebody else advised sticking plaster, (not a bad thing,either, to have with one, but scissors are then necessary, and there are at once two more things to look after.) “I suppose you never travel without a brandy flask?” was another question. “ A lw ays,” was my answer. I took one with me once a long tim e and one of my friends broke it twenty-four hours after we had le ft Lon don. I b elieve now that he broke it on purpose, hut had not the courage to say so, and that was his way o f teaching me to do without it. I never want brandy in the mountains and why should I burden m yself with the extra weight of a flask? I f the pedestrian wants to car ry a medicine chest on his hack be should have strong shoulders. I hare om itted any mention of a mackintosh; they are unpleasant to walk in and I should think the straps o f the knapsack would tear them. I have always pre ferred to trust to Providence for tine weather, and, with a few exceptions, I have been w ell treated. I do take with me an extra pair o f trousers— which I feel to be an infliction—and have some three or four times asked the landlord to lend me a coat. I prefer this to carrying a mackintosh on my knapsack. Home men lik e to take a stout umbrella in place o f a walking •tick. Th is w ill keep off wet partially and the sun off your bead and back. E very tssly w ill pleas«- hims«-l f in what he taxes or leaves behind, but I f his load is a heavy one he may pay too dearly for it.—Gentleman's Magazine. m ♦ m — When a Chicago clergym an hung out his sign to the public some o f his brothers were horrified at the innova tion, but when they discovered that that same sign brought him about three couples per day to be married they stroked their chins in a reflective way and declared that he had a great head for business.—Detroit Free Press.

The volume of home trade Is decreasing, as always during the closing weeks of the year, yet it Is much above the usual De cember average, despite the influence of a cloee money market, which is likely to continue until after the holidays. The future looks highly encouraging. A U K IC IIL T IB A L IM PLKM EN TM . Breaking Plow 9 33@55 Broadcast Seeders .................... » ’(o 11U Binding T w in e .. 10 per et dis 18c ..
