Why Worry?
Sickness may come; death may beat
the door, but the piiui who does not
give up cuts down the doctor bills and
cheats the undertaker altogether.
Business deals may go wrong and
financial disaster tuny threaten, but
the man who takes stock In himself
aud remains on the Job seldom enters
the bankruptcy court
Poverty may be at the door, and
hard luck may bring adversity, but the
man who takes his fortuue with a
smile will be at the dock when his j
ship comes In.
So why worry?
Worry saps vitality, brings gray
hairs, produces wrinkles, and It can
tarn a sunshiny day iuto a dreary one.
Without a cloud In the sky, worry
can make one believe there will be a
downpour any minute.
Worry discounts bills receivable,
adds Interest to those which are to be
paid and disturbs the scheme of things
generally.

The West and the East.
To the east ancestors are most im
portant; to the west descendants are
most Important
The east delights In memory, the
west In prophecy.
The east says: This thing Is rather
gnpleasant and Inconveuient for us.
but It served our fathers well: there
fore we will keep it The west says:
This thing will lie a nuisance for us,
brought up in other customs, but it
will serve our children well; therefore
we will adopt It.
The east, though moving slowly for
ward, looks backward: the west,
though sometimes moving backward,
yet looks forward
The east takes delight In being be
hind the times, the west in being
ahead of them.
The east is history: the west Is apoc
alypse.? Life.
Thackeray'i Thanks.
Thackeray's playful habit of wrap
ping rime up In prose Is happily il
lustrated in the letter below, which
was written to his friend Hole:
"Did 1 ever write and comply with
your desire to have a page of auto
frraph? You're welcome to a quire
Tell your friend the lady I have no
pleasure higher than In writing pret
ty poetry and striking of the lyre, in
compliment to a gentleman whom
benevolence did inspire to send me
partridges and pheasants killed with
shot or wire (but whatever the way of
killing them, I equally admire), and
who of such practices. I trust, will
never tire. May you bring your birds
down every time you fire, this, my
noble sportsman, is the fond desire of
William Makepeace Thackeray, editor
and esquire."

Grant's Quick Wit.
Once during the civil war, when
Grant was In sultordinate command,
he was recoil noiteiing alone near the
enemy's lines. Suddenly he found
himself confronted by one of the Con
federates' pickets, who was for arrest
ing him. "Sho! Sho!" said Grant, with
the utmost coolness. "Can't you see i
am reconnoltering in the enemy's uni
form? Don't make a noise. I shall be
back directly." And he walked away
quietly until out of the picket's sight
then ran as nimbly as he could.
Oust In One's Eyes.
To "cast dust Into one's eyes" per
fectly explains Itself It Is, however,
interesting to know that Epaminondas
at the battle of Tegea defeated the
Spartans by masking his movements
with a large body of cavalry. He
caused the horsemen to gallop to and
fro In front of the enemy In such a
way as to raise a cloud of dost and so
veiled the movements of his Infantry
and enabled them to take op a new
and more advantageous position.

NEAIU.VG COMPLETION
A corrsepoudent of the Edmonton
Capital, writing from G. T. P. rail
road in the Yellowhead Pass coun
try, says:
With 4,000 men, 10 steam shov
els, two big boats, and hundreds of
carloads of dump carts, cranes
aiyl tackle, the Grand Trunk Paci
fic contractors have now got the
work well uuder way for the last lap
of the transcontinental, being the
2 10 miles from the present head of
bteel of mile 53 to Fort George.
The planning is that the work
from the Pacific coast end and
from the Edmonton end will con
nect up at the embryo inter moun
tain metropolis. Engineers claim
that the golden spike will be driv
en one year from now, but the con
tractors conservatively estimate
that the road will not be completed
for at least two years.
Surprising as it may seem, the
Grand Trunk is just now entering
upon the hardest part of their
whole work, the 210 miles to Fort
George, and also surprising is it to
learn that this work is made the
hardest not because there is heavy
rock work, but because there is no
rock work at all. On the ontrary
the whole stretch is along sidehills
composed of the slipperiest and mud
diest mica clay to be found anywher
on this mundane sphere. 5
The nature of the ground between
railhead and Fort George is a gen
uine heart breaker for the engi
ners. The mica clay will slide on
the slightest provocation, or on 110
provocation whatever. 'In dozens
of places it has been necessary to
dig out the same place two or three
times.
In the 210 miles between steel he:id
and Fort George, there are alto
gether 32 steel bridges, big and little
to be constructed, and among these
are six bridges, everyone of
which will be considerably larger
than the low level bridge at Edmon
ton. After leaving the Juane the
road crosses the Fraser four times
before reaching Fort George and
when It Is considered that the Fra
ser is a bigger river at Tete Juane
than the Saskatchewan, is at Ed
monton, some appreciation of the
undertaking may be had The first
of these bridges is at mile 100,
about 4 7 miles below present rail
head, and it is to this point that
the beginners claim they will have
the rails laid by Christmas ? but
they wont. At the canyon, 6S miles
further along, the road crosses the
river twice within a very few miles,
and at the canyon it crosses once
again This makes the four cross
ings below railhead, and there is
still the other one at Respendent,
mile 29, making altogether five
limes that the road crosses the
Fraser in 250 miles.

There are many men who wear their
hats practically all the time when awjUce,
and are blessed with a heavy shock of
hair; yet If the scalps of these same men
once became infested With dandruff
germs, the parasites would multiply all
the quicker for lack of air. Baldness
would ensue as the final result. New
