To be sure the modifications of the rules have diminished the resulting death and accident rates, but enough danger remains to cause sensible people to shut out the sigh'ts from their eyes. The truest, best and sweetest type of the girl of to-day does not come from the home of wealth, she steps out from the house where is comfort rather than luxury. She belongs to the great middle class—that class which has given us the best wifehood, which has given helpmates to the loremost men of our time; which teaches its daughters the true meaning of love; which teaches the manners of the drawing room and the practical life of the kitchen as well as teaches its girls the responsibilities of wifehood and the greatness of motherhood. ■»•»■—i  The following are the weather forecasts for October: This will be the great storm month of the year.

The penalty for violation of the Act is a fine of $500, and is imposed on those who accept a rebate or division of commission as well as on those who pay it. One of our subscribers, who is always very prompt in remitting, said he had not felt well of late, and had all the symptoms which were described in a clipping which he enclosed to use.
