On October 25, 1912, a sail vessel—a Norwegian . bark—sailed' from Rio Grande and failed to appear in Liver pool where the sail vessel was bound. On January 19, 1913, the vessel was sighted, and apparently drifting, by a British steamer, and the latter made Re peated efforts to communicate, with no response. At last, a boat from the British ves sel boarded the Norwegian bark to find a strange sight. All the sails were snugly furled, the lifeboats -were hang ing in the davits, the galley, plentifully supplied with provisions and water, but not one vestige of hum&n life was to be seen anywhere. Not .a sign or appearance of a crew or passengers anywhere. It was a large vessel Qf.,rtear .400 tonnage net, and had either been vacated by the crew or the people had abandoned it, to a man. There was no sign of dead men anywhere—not a particle of disorder in the ship, to evi dence a struggle or epidemic or mutiny. The British vessel fastened a hawser and started towards the Virginia capes —the nearest land—when a dreadful storm overtook them and the big rope parted. The lifeboats were smashed trying to reco'ver the bark and several of the Britishers narrowly escaped drowning—and the attempt at rescue entirely failed. The sailors reported the strangher go ing along very well the last glimpse they had of the silent voyageur. Ali the elements of a tragedy were in evidence, but what was behind ^he whole business nobody is able to tell. If the boats had been missing we could reasonably suppose that the ves sel had been abandoned in dread of a Wreck—but the boats were all place; and there was an abundance of provis ions and drinking water. It is altogether stranger than fiction! THE POLITICAL SCRAMBLE. Since the world began I do hot sup pose there has ever been the equal of the scramble for office now going 1 on in Washington City. There are of course, a good many people there to day (this is March 4), who were in duced to go by curiosity and cheap rail road rates, but seven-eighths of the comers and goers, are out “for game.” -Sixteen years Is a long time jto wait in politics! But Hon. W. J. Bryan had been wait- ling that long, and has just reached a cabinet place, and the Democrats can take comfort that sixteen years can [lapse and yet bring a good fat office! I did not go to Washington to see .this 4th day of March scramble, but I did see the mad people that rushed around in that great city, when sir. Hayes, bested Mr. Tilden by the greatest pol itical steal of the century, and the multitudes gathered in Washington City, March, 1877, to cuss and discuss the office-seeking problem. The southern Democrats who went into the dirty trade with Mr. Hayes’ managers (whereby Mr. Tilden lost the one vote which would have given him the presidency), got in on the ground floor when Mr. Hayes begun to give out patronage in the south, to those who traded and sold out Uncle Sammy Tilden. . , Then the cussing and discussing in creased from whispers to howls—and the air w r as 'lurid with hate and disap pointment. But that “wasn't a cir- cumstance”' to what will be on in Washington, beginning today, and may be lasting foqr years, According to present symptoms. The congressmen who get one place, will be abased for not getting twenty—and the chances are we will get a new deal in congress men during the next twT) years. THE LATEST NEWS FROM PARIS. We are told that very large hats, or very small ones are now the go. The big nes are immense—ging far ver the shoulders, and the tight skirts continue. I haven’t seen the little ones yet. It does seem to me that sane and sensible American people should be able to decide upon the style of their frocks without going to Paris to see what the actresses are wearing before they can have a gown fixed to their notion. The idea of fixing a train to a long, shiny tight skirt, that the poor wearer must catch up and hold in a frantic grasp as she darts across a drawing room, of tries to dance, is simply pre posterous. But the French actresses do that way—so here goes our silly-pated American women. Womarj “Cop” Now Guards Birmingham BIRMINGHAM, Ala., March 8.—Vest ed with full authority to carry a club, make arrests, or exercise any other pre rogative that may fall to a policeman’s lqt. Miss E. A. Hutchinson was today made a fullfledged member of Birming ham’s police force. An order of Com missioned A. O. Lane’s gives Birming ham its latest innovation. The worst foes of religion are not those who openly avow their hostility to Christianity,- but those who under various specious pretences make pro posals which, if adopted, would subvert the foundations of all moral and re ligious life. If a man should come forward an nouncing an atheistic programme, and j expressing a desire to draw the people away from all the churches on Sun days, he would be resisted vigorously. Even men of the world would rise up to rebuke him;*’for all men know that life in a religionless nation would be impossible. But from time to time we have all sorts of propositions for the subversion of the Christian Sabbath, which mean nothing less than the de struction of Christianity. Of all such proposals the editor of • Scribner’s Monthly said most truly, “The ; preva lence and permanence of a pure Chris tianity in this country depend mainly on what can be done for them on Sun day. If the enemies of Christianity could wipe it out they would do more to destroy the power of the religion they contemn than all the, Renan’s and Strausses have ever done, or can do. They understand this, and their efforts will be directed to this end, through every specious protest, plea and plan.’’ Nevertheless the enemies of religion are making progress in the line of at tack predicted by the editor of Scrib ner’s, and many Christian people seem to be asleep while these undermining methods are being employed for the de struction of faitfi and the overthrow of morality. Specious pleas aretmade for Sunday concerts, Sunday baseball and the like: in short for the introduction of the “Continental Sabbath” into our country. Under pretences of concern for the poor and the wearied workers in shops and factories men are proposing to lay heavier burdens upon the poor and harder tasks upon the laboring man when they propose to make our Chris tian Sabbath a day of ainusement. They talk of “blue-laws” and “blue-days,” * but in truth they are seeking to bring o n us “black-days” and a disregard of all laws, both human and divine. In the same article from Scribner’s Magazine, are found these sound words: “The most religious and earnest of the Catholic clergy of Europe lament the ♦act that the Sunday of their church and their several countries is a day of amusement. They see, and they pub licly acknowledge, that without the English and American Sunday they work for/'the spiritual benefit of their people at a sad and disadvantage. It is this European Sunday, which we are told is to come to America at last through her foreign population. We hope not. . . The theater, the horse race, the ball-game, the cricket ground, the lager-beer saloon, have nothing in them that can take the place of the institutions of religion. They are es tablished and practiced in the interest of the animal, and not at all in the in terest of the moral and intellectual side of humanity. They can neither build up hor purify. They minister only to thoughtlessness and brutali ty. So much then seems obvious; 1st, That we can not do without Synday as a day of physical and mental rest;' 2d, That either as a consequence or a con comitant, moral and spiritual, improve- iftent goes always with the observance of Sunday as a religious day; and, 3d, That Sunday, as a day of amusement simply, is profitless, to the better and nobler side of human nature and human life.” All this I steadfastly believe, and all classes in our country should lay these wise words to heart. The issue involved is not merely a question of the best method of observ ing the Sabbath; the very life of all re ligion is involved. “The roads devoted to Sunday amusement lead directly away from the Christian church”; and in the end churchless people become godless people. Already church attendance is being diminished by the increasingly lax ob servance of the Sabbath among us. Manj^ preachers are alarmed about the matter, and well they may be. Now their complaint is that few attend the evening services, and soon the morning service will be equally neglected. The loose and shallow talk of some liber- alistic pulpits has had its influence in bringing to pass the evil which is com plained of, and continuance of such talk Will tend to increase the mischief. Soon the men who have contributed to this -ihgury will not be able .to get a hearing themselves bn Sunday; they “are sawing the limb off between them selves and the tree,” and a hard fall awaits them. Preachers who encour age men to us e Sunday as a day of amusement are adopting a method of dispersing their own* congregations into parks and play-houses and con cert-halls. Why should men and women stay at church to hear a puer ile pulpiteer proclaim nonsense? But better men and purer pulpits will suffer with the rest when Sunday is made a day of mere Amusement. Di version appeals more strongly to our fallen human nature than religion. It is idle to say, “If the pulpit can not compete with the concert for the at tention of the people, it deserves to be neglected”. One might as well say, “If teachers in our schools can not draw youths to their instruction as fishing-frolics and sports draw them, the school-rooms ought to be forsaken by the boys and girls of the coun try”. Castor oil can not compete with claret as a beverage, but it is far more useful as a remedy for disease. The churches are not made to amuse peo ple but to cure their souls of the mal ady of sin; the pulpit was not set up to entertaih, but to edify and save. In all this question of the preserva tion of the Sabbath the labouring peo ple are most deeply interested, wheth er they do or do not appreciate the fact. The barrier between a day of rest and religion, and a day of toil ana dissipation, is orily the sacredness of the Sabbath; take the sanctity of the* day away by amusements, and a flood of labour will pour over all wage-earners, except thos e employed by decidedly re ligious employers. Mn’s rights in the day rest upon God’s claim to- it as a day of worship; and the sacredness of the Sabbath is the labouring man’s shield from oppressive tasks of Sun day work. Some years ago the Duke of Argyle said, “When you break down the religious sanction of the day, the legal sanction will he broken also. Ref erence has been made to the way in which Sunday is spent in other coun tries. In South Germany, the other day, I was much struck by the fact that works of construction were cat** ried c as extensively on Sunday as on other days, and the scaffolding of one of the finest chliVelfes was occupitu by men who were at'work on the build ing. The working classes of England and Scotland feel that if- the regard for Sunday were broken down in one re spect, it would be broken down in oth ers. I think this is a well-founded jealcuisy”. The words of this devout nobleman af e true to the facts, Think of one fact which he states: he saw in Germany, where the boasted "Continen tal Sabbath” -prevails, men hard at work on a church on Sunday! What more need be said? Another competent observer, writing from a town in Germany to the paper called “The Advance,” which is publish ed in Chicago, says: “Those who advo cate the introduction in America of the German Sabbath lay especial stress on its advantages for the working classes. Thejr argue that it would give them more recreation and enjoyment, and^that ( by thus throwing a weekly gleam of pleasure into their,hard lives, the mo notony would be broken up, and the men and women rendered healthier and better, both in bony and mind. They ask that the Sabbath be no longer call ed ‘the Lord’s Day’, but ‘the People’s Day’. Germans will describe to you their charming coffee and beer gardens, with their merry Sabbath throngs. The picture is a bright one, but they only Recipes and Suggestions Tested and Found Good by Homekeeping Experts show* you the foreground. Let us raise the curtain a little higher and get a glympse of the back-ground. There you find a perspective, stretching far back over Germany’s past, marked by long lines of Sunday toilers, working on, as if the example of the Creator of the universe was nothing to be heeded. In the afternoon many, of these laborers drop their spades, hammers, and plows, and wend their way to some public place of amusement, but enough remain at work all day to keep the dark lines visible till the sun drops down behind the landscape. ... Thus, though the places of amusement are well pat ronized on Sunday afternoon by people who play cards, drink, 'or dance, till the small hours overtake them, we may safely reckon that for every working man we see there taking one of the few airings of the season, there could be found three at home occupied with some kind of labour., FOR. AS WE HAVE SEEN ALREADY, THE SAME VIEW* OF THE SABBATH "WHICH MAKES BEER GARDENS AND THE ATRES ADMISSIBLE ON SUNDAY, MAKES SEWING, SCRUBBING, DIG GING, SAWING. BflICK-LAYING, AND EVERY OTHER SORT OF TOIL AD MISSIBLE”. * Workmen owe it to themselves and their families to resist all these spe cious attacks upon the sanctity of the Sabbath. And the employers of labour are not less vitally concerned in this great matter. It is known/by all classes that the relations of capital and labour are none too agreeable and friendly in our country, and that agitators seek con stantly to increase the social unrest. , If the sanctity of the day of worship be rest at nought, we may as wel prepare for revolution in America. With capital ists growing more heartless by absence from places of worship and by attend ance , on public amusements, they will have | both less heart and less wisdom with which to deal with their employees. And the labouring classes, seeing the rich and fashionable running to Sunday concerts and other places of amusement on the Sabbah, will be led by this evil example to run to even worse diversions and dissipations, and to neglect religious worship. Both classes will, when once they forsake the dhurches and begin to use gunday for 'amusement. demand more and morie sensational and demor alizing diversions; for it is the way of human nature to demand constantly fresh and more stimulating excitements when it yields itself to a life of pleas ure. Meanwhile the expenses of all con cerned will be increased by the increas ing, cost of their dissipations, and capi tal will grasp at higher dividends and labour at higher wages; and that will bring on acute conflicts. What will be the methods of warfare between the con testants when both have »ceased to at tend church, have forgotten God, and lest all religious convictions and con scientious scruple>? ' f A very little reflection will suffice to show that this matter is too serious to be trifled with. Sabbathless nation will'be a godless nation; and all hitsory tells us what godless nations come to. The records of mankind unite with the Holy Scriptures in declaring that na tions “which forget God are turned into hell”: and it is equally true that such nations always turn hell into them selves. If all that religious people commonly believe about future rewards and punishments were shown to be un true, it would remain demonstrably true that religionless nations always torture themselves ,40 death- A few things all classes may well con sider. (1) The map of free and stable gov ernment in the world is the map of Sabbath observance, and the quality of the political institutions of Christian nations varies with the kind of Sab bath which each nation has. Witness Mexico and the United States, not to re call other examples. (2) Christianity in all lands where it exists is flourishing or fading ac cording to the religious observance of the Sabbath or the lack of such ob servance. » (3) Next to nothing for the spread of Christianity in heathen lands is being done by the churches of those countries where “the Continental Sab bath” prevails. If then the maintenance of free in stitutions, the preservation of Christi anity in Christendom, and the Christian ization Of the world are all involved in the observance of the Sabbath in the most sacred and religious manner, what shall we say of those who would subvert such observance of it? HVould it be too much to say that they are the enemies of the human race? If not the foes of the best and highest interests of hu manity, what are they? Are they too thoughtless to know what they are doing, or too conscienceless to care for the consequences of their acts? FOR THE HOME COOK. Pressed Beef and Sour Pigs’ Feet— This is my own recipe and a favortie Cottolene is not for table use, but it is the best cooking fat for all shortening and frying. If you are using butter in your kitchen you are paying at least twice as much as necessary to secure the same results with Cottolene. Another point of economy about Cottolene—me one-third less than you would of butter or lard Cottolene is a clean, pure product, and makes wholesome, healthful, di gestible food, because it is a vegetable and not an animal fat. Made only by THE N. K. FAIRBANK COMPANY TRY THIS RECIPE: —FRIED FISH —■ Fry Trout, Perch, Herring and other small pan fish whole. Cut large fish in 1 inch thick slices, 2 or 3 inches square. Remove skin and bones from sliced fish, wipe dry, roll in bread crumbs or fine meal, then in beaten eggs, then in crumbs, and fry in deep Cottolene hot enough to brown a bit of bread while you count sixty. Drain well before serving, or simply cover with seasoned meal and brown on each side in hot , . Cottolene in frying pan. dish with us. Those who try it will be pleased. Take six pigs’ feet, clean well, boil till amost done, then take out of the broth and boil, the pigs’ feet in fresh water until they are well done, season ing well with sajt, pepper, vinegar, and bay leaves. Or, if you like, lay ttfem in pure vinegar till next day. They are good both ways. Now boil two pounds lean beef and one pound pork until almost done, then put through food grinder and add it to the first broth in which pigs* feet were cooked; boil till done, adding salt, pe- per, one large onion cut fine, and a little thyme. Put it in a dish or a mould and when cold reverse dish and slip the jellied meat on to a plate. It looks like a large pudding and is most de licious. Ifis necessary to use the pigs’ feet broth to jell the meat. It can be sliced and eaten any way.—Mrs. M. D. Schultz. Royal Breakfast Dish—-Peel and quar ter tart apples, leaving on half the peeling. Drop injo hot fat and watch closely until they begin to soften. Turn once carefully with pancake turner. Then sprinkle sugar over all and turn once more. Reave cover off of pan and let them brown nicely. Put on hot platter, with strips of hot crisp bacon laid across the apples.—Maud Simpson. TWO WOMEN SAVED FROM OPERATIONS By Lydia E. Pinkham’s Veg etable Compound—Their Own Stories Here Told. BITS WORTH KNOWING. To Prevent Cork Slipping Into Salt and Pepper Shakers—I used to he troubled so much until I had an inspira tion. I took a plain white button a size or so larger than opening in bottom of shaker. I sewed through the cork, fastening button to it. Now the button keeps the cork from slipping inside and it loQks better than the Cork, as it resembles the china.—Mrs. P. Wilcox. I am saving laundry work in my kitchen by using absorbent paper in place of towels, etc. I. use it for hand towels, for wiping meat and fish ah it comes from the market, to clean apples before they are put to hake, for drain ing doughnuts or grease, to polish glasses, etc. No more troublesome and greasy kitchen cloths for me.—Mrs. Gust.

One year ago I found myself a terrible sufferer. I had pains in both sides and such a soreness I could scarcely straighten up at times. My back ached, I had no appetite and was so nervous I could not sleep, then I would be so tired mornings that I could scarcely get around. It seemed almost impossible to move or do a bit of work and I thought I never would be any better until I submitted to an operation, but my husband thought I h’ad better write to you and I did so, stating my symp toms.
