Chinook’s Sports Day

WAS THE BEST YET

Beats All Previous Records Both in Number of Visitors and Enjoyment of Sports

ever more so than the one held last Friday. The weather which had been cold and stormy for some two or three weeks, cleared up for three or four days previous, and both Jupiter Pluvius and Old Sol- conspired to give Chinvok one of the brighest and hottest days of this season, so far, for our sports day.

Then, too, the crowd was the largest and one of the happiest lot of people, gathered together from a large area, that has been with us on our annual holiday,

The grogramme was an attractive one, thanks to our energetic officers and committee. The old-time baseball was attractive as ever to a very large crowd of people—notwithstanding all it errors, muffs, misses and muddles, The old game stills retains its fascina- tion. The horse racing was ‘another fescinating attraction and ‘drew a big crowd’ to watch the trials of speed. There was‘one noticeable feature among this.crowd and that was the large number of autoes present, there being some forty or ‘more ‘lined ‘up in a groupe, the horse and buggy being : ‘conspicuous ‘by jits absence, very few were Seen at the sports-during the day. s

BASEBALL

The programme started off with baseball, As the matches proceeded, it was easily to be seen that Collholme had managed to get together the best aggregate of: players. seven innings, except the juniors, which was five.

Rearville vs, Chinook.— Some pretty good play was given by both sides, but neither showed to best advantage, the home team winning out,

Collholme xs, New Bliss—In the second innings a dispute arose owing to a decision of one of the umpires, in which both sides joined, and for a minute or two it looked as though there was going to be trouble over what New Bliss claimed was-a “rotten decision,” but better judgment prevailed, and the storm ‘blew over. Collholme took the game. “

Chinook, having seen the way Collholme handled the above

game, kind of got scared, and defaulted to Collholme, the latter {taking first money.

A match was made by Collholme and Keswick, $10.00 aside. This was by far the best exhibition of baseball given during the day both side doing some pretty work, The score stood 4-3 in favor of Collholme.

Youngstown vs, Chinook juniors—The home team yot away in good shape and led to the third innings, when the visitors began to overhaul their opponents and breaking away were soon in the lead, whet the home team went to pieces, the visilors winning cut.

FOOTBALL

Cereal vs. Chinook.—This game was brought on somewhat later than schedule time. These two teams have tried conclusions two or three times this season, with varying fortunes. In the first half of this gate, after a few tosses of the leather, the home team slipped one over their opponent's goal-keeper by jabbing the ball in over his head, but try as they would they couldn't fool that wiley goal-keeper again during that half. In the second half, however, just as the goal-keeper was going to yawn—for it was getting late— the home team, watching their chance,slipped in another one on the The visitors worked hard to make a break, but it was no use, The visitors!

side, and the game ended 2-0 in favor of the home team, had one or two narrow squeaks in getting the ball through, one time, the bail striking the outside post and ylancing off. The two teams are fairly evenly matched, both sides.

HORSE RACES

The trials of speed was pulled ‘off in good shape, most of the: horses in the series of speed trials being very eveuly matched, with’ very exciting finishes.

REASON FOR THE MILITARY RECOVERY OF TURKEY

German Instruction and Organization is Responsible for the Showing Turkey Has Made in the War and Makes Plain The Necessity f2r a Complete Victory for Allies

The military recovery of the Turks during this war is one of those siguifi- can symbols of what may happen In : the future to wich the Allies had better give early heed. There was 2 | time when the Turk was regarded as a great soldier, He had many of the qualities which went to the making of a formidable fighter under the con. ditions of war then obtaining.

Verdun Victories Often in History

Eecame Centre of Vast Entrenched Camp After War of 1870

It is reported that the German Em. peror, addressing his soldiers heseig- ing Verdun, said: The war of 1870 wis The present war inust end at Verdun.”

Verdun has been compared to Friedland, says the Mail and¥Empire. Napolcon forced the Russian army to battle at Friedland in 107, with its]

-back to the river, with the object oft

Geeupying the bridges which would, thus eut off retreat. Mackensen would follow Napoleon's manoeuvre in 1807 hy forcing the French army to fight, its back to the Mecnse, while Macken. sen, attacking fron. the nerth, east and south simultaneously would oe cupy the bridges of Verdun.

The difference between Napoleon's munoeuvre and that of Mackensen is manitest, Ney took the bridges of Fnediand, while the sronprinz has not taken the bridges of Verdun, nor is there probability that they ean be taken,

Verdun was first mentioned in the “Utinerary of Antonius’? (44 B, ©), under the name of Verodunum, After J870, Verdun was created a first-class fortress, in the centre of a vast en- trenched camp, destined to bar the Champagne road to an enemy eomlug from Metz. A tine of intereepting forts connects the entienchments of Verdun on the Meuse with Toul on the Moselle to the south-east,

It was at Verdun in S43 the sons of Lows the Pious sined the treaty of division of the Carolingian /hm- pire, Louis of Bavaria teak Germania Charles Je Chauve. Franee, and west of the Meuse. Lothaire, Ttaly and the region between the Meuse and the Rhine, The Jattor finally was) prey fo Germans and French ambitions. Louis dAutremer took Verdun, 979; Gthon the Great recaptured it.

THE

|Armenians Dying

For Lack of Foo

Forced to Eat Grass But Still Decline to Renounce the Christian Faith

Buffering among the Armenians in Turkey, Persia and Syria is still in- tense and they are dying by hundreds for want of food and are in urgent need of aid, says a message from Con- stantinople, made public by the Ameri -can committee for Armenian and Syr- ian relief, i

The request for aid, sent by repre- sentatives of the committee in Tur- key through the department of étate,

stays a minimum of $52,800 a month |

is needed for relief in Turkey alone. Conditions in many quarters, says the message, are so distressing that the Armenians are forced to cat grass, and yct despite these conditions they continue to stick fast to their chris- tian faith, although a change to Mo- hammedanism would quick}y relieve their pheht. The number of | non- combatants affected is one million. In Aleppo, says the message, 1,350

orphans are destitute. In Marash 10.-!

000 Armenians are threatened with deportation and the government has refused to allow the Christians to transact business of any kind to sup- port themselves. In ‘Tarus, where it is estimated 92,000 exiles have passed through, typhoid is prevalent, In Sivas there are 25,600 destitute ¢hil- dren from the coast towns. All of these towns, beside many others, it is stated, are in ereat and urgent need.

Russia's Opportunity

Prof, Paul Milokofi leader of the Constitutional Democrats in the Rus- sian duma, in a recent speech before that body thus set forth the reasons why Russia, as a consequence of this war should secure an outlet to the sea by Constantinople and the Dardan- elles:

“In this war the interest of Russia can be briefly defined: We need an outlet to the sea. It was not for this We went to War, yet without it we cannot end the war.

British Blockade is Mild Compared to the Siege of Paris

Germany’s vehement protest against what she describes as the “inhumanity” of the British blockade must be taken with a grain of salt. The suggestion conveyed in the Ger- man reply to the Washington note that the British blockade is some- thing new in military history, and that its effects are unprecedented in their harsh discrimination against women

Who Owns the Mastodon

Nice Legal Point to be Decided by Tennessee Courts

Tennessee’s courts are struggling over the issue between rival claim- ants for the bones of a mastodon. They were found by two boys who were trapping on the farm of a neighbor, and they obtained the aid of their father to help exhume as much as possible of the prize. The farm owner teplevined the bones, and the dis- coverers appealed against the decision. By a principle about as old in law as .the mastodon ig in biology, the owner of land owns everything within

ish blockade Germany cannot be ig- norant of the effects of her starvation policy upon Paris nearly half a cen- tury ago.

One appalling result of the siege ot Paris was an increase in the average weekly death rate among the civilian population from eight hundred to five thousand. In other words, four thou- sand non-combatants died in one week from the effects of starvation. Mor- tality was so great that very few people are living in France today who were born in Paris during that siege. Nearly all the children born during that period died in infancy, slaughter- ed as surely by the German military policy as if they had been shot down

y the guns. So mercilessly did Ger- many carry out the btockade of Paris that she refused the request, put for- ward during an armistice at the be- ginning of November, 1870, for the entry of a small amount of food, so that if peace negotiations failed the city would not be tn a worse condi- tion than at the time of the inception of these negotiations. Germany flatly refused to allow a morsel of food to enter the city during this lull in the fighting. It 1g alsu worthy of note that during the whole of the siege, which lasted 139 days, the Germans re- lied solely upon the starvation of the citizens for the reduction of Paris. No attempt was made by them during this time to attack the French lines.

Germany under the British blockade is in a much better position than Paris was in 1870-71. Germany has large agricultural areas to draw upon for supplies, not only within her own borders but also in the territories oc- cupied nt the beginning of the war. What Germany really demands is the right to exceptional treatment, which, in this war as in 1870, she denies to those with whom she it at war.—To- ronto Globe.

Marks of Identification

Characteristic Marks by Which we Are Each Best Known A story with a good lesson in it is

related about Sir Bartle Frere, the soldier, Once

his home, a “‘footman’’ who had never seen him was 8rderetl to fo to the rail- way station to meet him. In giving some mark of identification his mother said, ‘‘Look out for a man _ helping someone else, that is sure to be Sir Bartle.”

The footman went his way. The train arrived, and the faces of the passengers were eagerly scanned. It Jooked as if there wuuld be a disap- pointment. But just at last the foot- man noticed a man helping an inva- lid alight from the train. Approaching the man the servant said, ‘Sir Bartle Frere?”

“Yes,” said the unassuming gen- eral, ‘‘I’ll come to the carriage as soon as [.can.”

There is some characteristic or mark by which we are each best known. What is it? Is it a worthy one? Is it a kingly trait, or otherwise? Do we blandish our traits or wear them in modest self-respect?

Some one has truly said, ‘The good man is he who works continually in well doing, to whom well doing is as hig natural existence, awakening no astonishment requiring no comment- ary.” “Shakespeare takes no airs for writing Hamlet,”’ says Carlyle.

This generation needs to learn the art of self-forgetfulness in good works. Goodness at its best is all unconscious of itself.

Distance of Markets

From a study of 650 farms in John- £0n county of that state, the Missouri Ixperimental station concludes that location is more important than crop yield as a factor in land values. Here are the figures: Seventy-nine farms within two miles of market averaged in value $78.70 per acre; 183 farms, two to four miles from market, $70.20 per acre, 126 farms, four to six miles from market, $60.90; 113 farms, six to eight miles from market, averaged $58.20. An unmentioned but import- ant factor is condition of the roads. Were these farms located on hard roads or on dirt roads inclined to be heavy in wet seasons. Most folks would rather like six miles out on a permanent hard road than only half as far on a muddy road. Let us have more light on this interesting question. —Farmer’s Review.

Electric power will be used here- after at the Charles E, Hope farm, at Fort Langley, B. C., in place of gaso- line, the power line from the B. C. Electric Railway Company’s wires now being under construction. Prac- tically all work on this 600 acre farm will be done by the electric drive after this. ‘he electric drive will be used to operate the usual farm machines such as the grain crusher, straw cutter and so forth. The barns will also be lighted throughout by electricity.

In| 8Urface of the earth.

He owns the into coal and the buried remains of unimal life that may have fed on it. He also owns the atmosphere and the meteors that fall from beyond the clouds. This principle decided a case in the Stat of Iowa in the eighties. A man who saw a meteor fall dug it up and sold it to the directors of a museum. The owner of the land took legal action, and although the finder und _ the money had disappeared the plaintiff won, and the directors were forced to pay again for the meteor.

This and similar cases have been cited to show that «ven if efficiency reaches an ideal that eyuals the fall- ing of all good and necessary things from the clouds it cannot benefit any- body who does not own space. The metvor represented food and clothing to the man who saw it fall and dug it out, but his gains were illegal and fraudulent. The multiplying of pro- ductive power by efficiency and the improvement of labor-saving machin- ery corresponds economically tu the falling of products from the clouds, and the economic results are the same. Stuart Mill questioned if labor-saving machinery had ever shortened the daily toil of a human being. [t is strange he did not discern the cause. Some of his critics say he did, but hesitated to make it known. Now that. social service is to pass into the hands of instructed students there is a pos- sibility of the always potent cause of the necessity for such service he- ing , mieliigently elucidated.—Torontn

Where the West Beg'ns

Port Arthur and Fort William at the Gateway

Canadians are perrectly clear as to what they mean when ‘they speak of The East and The West. They regard Port Arthur and Fort William rightly as the gateway of The West. These cities are western in everything but their political tie with a province which is largely eastern. The eastern Ontario man so views them. Eastern Canadians, when they arrive here know and feel that they are in The West. We are more closely knit with Manitoba than with any other pro- vince in most relationships. The churches liere are allied with Mani- toba in their presbyteries and con- ferences. The Port Arthur Daily News-Chronicle, to give another ex- ample, is a member of the Western Associated Press. Distance ‘is another umovortant factor. Wunnipeg is only a night’s journey; Toronto over a day and a night.. The largest grain ele- vators in the world testify that these cities are economically a part of the West. Port Arthur and Fort William owe their birth and their growth to the West, and their future is bound up with the western progress. They aim to be a great manufacturing centre for the country from Lake Superior to the Pacific-—in fact, the West would be their only market. Their faces are turned toward the

Steel Helmets

Have Been Proven to be of Great Ad- vantage as a Means of Protection

When an officer jumped’ down from the gallery on to the floor of the house of commons about ten days ago to make a dramatic appeal for steel head- pieces for our troops most people prob- ably dismissed the incident quickly, not having any means of knowing what substance there was in the de- mand. That the need should be sat- isfied, if it still exists, is obviously of first-rate importance, and we see that war correspondents at the front state that it is actually a very urgent one. The French commanders were quick to realize the rather obvious advant- ages of a steel protection for the heads of their troops, and after a series of tests the whole army has been supplied with a helmet which is not only ser- viceable but handsome.

{t is officially stated that the num- ber of casualties has thus been re- duced 10 per cent. or more. We, too, have been experimenting. it seems; but so far we have only succeeded in producing an ugly, clumsy headpiece Which is too heavy to become at all popular with the men in the trenches, There is also the spirit of rather fool- hardy disdain of protection to be con- quered; but experience will overcome this, and meanwhile the wearing: of steel helmets ought to be enforced as rigorously as that of anti-gas masks. Their production in large quantities ought to be a comparatively simple matter, and it should be put through before the spring offensives begin.— From the Manchester Guardian.

Is Symbol of Co-operation

The sending of a division of Rus- sian troops to France is a symbol of the co-operation and unity of the Allies. That unexpected event will have due weight in the Balkans, for if Russia’s unlimited numbers could be at the disposal of France, which has almost unlimited munitions and equipment, the military outlook must more and more favor the Allies.—To- ronto Mail and Empire.

Annual Loss

From 1905 to 1915 the average annual yield of potatoes in Canada was 78,- 405,000 bushels, constituting one of our important field crops. The annual yield, however, is greatly lessened by the ravages of diseases and insects. The season of 1915 was admittedly one of the worst in years for late blight, and the Botanical Division of the Central Experimental Farm observes that, in one small province of Canada the loss from this disease amounted to about 2,000,000 bushels, not includ- ing loss in storage.

Potato diseases may be controlled in different ways; some by spraying, some by seed treatment and some by seed selection, lor early and late blight, and for flea beetles, Bordeaux mixture is very effective. By adding Poison to this mixture the Colorado part beetle is also kept in check.

umerous experiments have been made which demonstrate clearly the

f2| practical value of spraying with Bor-

deaux mixture. At the Vermont Agri- culture Experiment Station experi- ments have been conducted for many years. Over a period of eighteen years the yield on the sprayed area averaged 271 bushels per acre, while the unsprayed gave only 169 bushels er acre for the same period. The owest gain from spraying was 26 per cent, While the average was 9% per cent, This evidence should be suffi- cient to convince every farmer that it pays to spray. It does not cost much and is not so troublesome as many imagine. If you have not full directions at hand, write now to the nearest Kxperimental I'arm or the Central l’arm at Ottawa, and you will receive complete instructions re- garding making and applying Bor- deaux mixture.—F.

Light Horse Prospects

When peace comes, and the large number of officers thut have been cre- ated return to civil life, they will doubtless continue their equestrian- ism. Therefore horse-back riding promises to become the vogue. Such sports as hunting and polo playing wil] receive an immense impetus and with them horse shows will return to greater favor than ever. In addition, the history of the horse proves that after every eruption of other means of street and road travel he has ulti- mately returned to his own. An al- leged horseless age came in with rail- way trains. It returned with the bi- cycle. It has come back again with the automobile cnd traction power. As in the two first cases so in the last instance, the horse will return. Possibly not to the same extent or exactly for the same purposes, but he will be restored for the reasons, among others, that men with vitality in their veins like to handle and control living things, because of the sportsmanship he makes possible, because of the ex- hilaration he affords in freedom and daring and because of his spectacular character in the show ring.—Dominion Government bulletin.

Cause of Success

Denmark makes an almost absolute- ly uniform quality of butter, and that quality is high. The volume of pro- duct also runs almost uniform throughout the year.

These two facts explain why it is that before the war Denmark sup- plied three-fifths of the butter im- ported into England, and twice as much as Australia, which came next, provided.

|

Denmark is an importer of butter, or its equivalent, as well as an ex- porter. UVanish farmers import in- ferior Swedish butter, inferior in re- putation at least, for use at home, and sell their higher-priced product in the English market. meta also import Margarine as a substitute for butter in home consumption.

In the five years ending with 1885 Denmark’s export of butter or its equivalent in milk and cream, in ex- cess of imports, averaged 25,090,000 lbs. In 1913 her exports in excess of imports amounted to 216,920,000 lbs.

Part of this increase in exports 18 due to an increase from 898,790 in the number of cows kept in 1881 to 1,310,268 in 1914. Part is due to the fact that the average production per cow jumped from 3,850 lbs. of milk in 1888 to 5,800 in 1913.

With the increase in dairy output there has been an advance in bacon production as well. In the five years ending with 1885 the average value of the exports of hog products from Denmark was $7,340,000. In 1913 the value of such exports was $42,900,000.

Co-operation, as applied to both dairying and bacon production, lies at the foundation of Denmark’s re- markable progress in both these lines.

Busybodies in society are worrying themselves over the matrimonial pros. pects of the Prince of Wales, who be- came of age at his last birthday.

Watch Your Cows

Guessing at a Cow's Productlon and Profit Is Risky

Today the prudent farmer hardly dreams of planting seed -grain with- out testing it. He realizes there is on deposit in the Bank of Nature a huge sum of money, much of which may be his if elementary rules are follow- ed in seeding and cultivating.

The verage dairyman with twenty cows may reasonably expect as his share of nature’s hoard a yearly in- come of two thousand dollars if the resultant crops are marketed through suitable cows. But can the unselect- ed, untested cow ba expected to take a prominent part in that annual dis- tribution of nature’s wealth? She me be fed and cared for to the best of her owner’s ability, but there seems to be a loose end if he does not turn round and test her, determine her ability to turn the vast deposits in nature's bank into a round nine thousand pounds of milk and leave a clear profit. if milk fetches one-twen- ty a hundred.

Just guessing at seed vitality and power to grow is queer work; guess- ing at a cow’s production and profit is risky and unnecessary. It is very risky because many a dairyman is de- ceived without the use of scales and test, quite unnecessary because the dairy division at Ottawa supplies free of charge, milk record forms. Write for them, either the three day per month or the daily kind, with a herd record book. Their usa gives certain- ty. Test your cows; there is money in it,

His Best Girl

Writing from a hospital ront, a correspondent says:—

“You tind many of the boys who are down at the rest camp suffering from strain, and they look rather de- pressed. I found it very interesting to go about having talks with these boys and getting them to tell me all their troubles. After a chat it is wonderful how bright scme of them become. One night I was chatting with two lads, and us they got more and more confidential one of them pulled out two photographs and ask- ed me which of them I liked best. I looked at the photographs and said I thought they were both extremely nice young ladies, for I felt I was treading on dangerous ground, Being pressed, however, for a decision, I eventually said I thought I preferred that one (handing the boy the picture.) ‘Why, hang it all, he has chosen my sister,’ remarked the youth with an injured air.

“In spite of this little slip T en- couraged the other lad to show me his photographs. He was very re- luctant, but eventually produced his wallet, and, taking out a photograph, he held it cut to me, saying, ‘‘There’s my old girl, and she is the best in the world.’ It was the photograph of an elderly, sweet-faced lady—his moth- er.”

Decoration Instead of Vaccination

It is alleged that not long ago the French military authorities expressed a desire to award a decoration to thirty British non-coms., and privates for bravery on the field. When the detachment of heroes paraded before General Joffre, he was somewhat sur- prised to note that.it numbered thirty- live. However, he wus too polite to raise any objection, and the ceremony proceeded.

The fact was afterwards brought out—though not so far communicated to the French military authorities— that our own War Office had inad- vertently sent forward, instead of the men to be decorated, a batch that had been scheduled for vaccination.

At a fancy dress ball for children a policeman stationed at the door was instructed not to admit any adult.

An excited woman came running up to the door and demanded admission.

“I'm sorry, mum,” replied the policeman “but 1 can’t let anyone in but children.”

“But my child is dressed as a but- terfly,’’ exclaimed the woman, “and has forgotten her wings.”’

“Can't help it,’’ replied the police- “orders is orders; you'll have to let her go as a catterpillar.”—Tit Bits.

Plucky Birdman

Quebec Aviator Brought down Gere man Taube

Q ao letter to his father, Dr. A. B. Bevan former member of the Jegisiaturg and now collector of 1n- land revehue at St. Hyacinthe, Alr- Man Jacques Cartier, formerly of the reportial staff of the Montreal Herald, tells how he brought down a German aeroplane on the British front in France on April 27 last. He was on patro! duty in the British front on, April 27, and for want of any more exciting pastime was occupying him. self with taking pot shots at a Ger man observation balloon about 4,000 leet in the air. While thus engaged he saw a taube on the wing comin in his direction. Scenting some re fighting he “went up” after his prey. Circling upwards until he was above the German craft Cartier could dis cern that the occupants of the taube had been taking photographs of Brit ish positions. He commenced tiring and swooping in closer to the German. He succeeded in crippling the Hun machine so that it fell behind the Gere man lines. He was warmly cheered by both the French and British troops.

War’s Effect on Soldiers

Has Taught the Lesson of Making the Best of Things

A London, Eng., office clerk, now a member of a regiment fighting at the front writes home as follows:

“We may in the yeurs to come for« get how to order arms (though I dare. say we shall still at tires go through the movements with walking-stick or umbrella). We may cease to walk sturdily, chest out, looking our own height. But I believe the spirit of the British Army, spirit of discipline, the spirit of co-operation at its finest, will live in our hearts for ever.

That, then, is one mark which the war has stamped on us. We shall go back to the old indoor life, and the wide personal freedom, and even the quaint struggles of politics, but we shall be influenced all our days by army discipline.

We shall be influenced, too, by the sternly democratic conditions under which we have lived in the barns and trenches of Flanders, clerks and carters and scavengers and millhanda, all in a hungry hotch-potch. There will not be so much class feeling in us as before.

We look forward, my fighting friends and I, to the years of peace without misgiving. Some folks think we shall come back clamouring for high wages and better labor conditions. Some folk think we shall never settle down again to a quiet office life. No such qualins trouble us. The life here has been a tremendous lesson in co-opera- tion and making the best of things. I think we shall come back spiritually and moraily a little better, physically a good deal better, and that we shall be well content to live a peaceful do- mestic life.

Personally, I have had all the fight- ing and killing 1 want. After the war I shal] turn vegetarian, grow roses, wear carpet slippers, and read ‘‘Tha Golden Treasury.” I am afraid that is not quite what the maiden ladies expected.”

Tt is no credit to us that “the Ameri- can garbage can-is the fattest in the world,” remarked Senator Smoot when he injected into the Senate debate on preparedness a plea for preparedness for good housekeeping and _ better homes, ‘If 1 had a dozen daughters and was able to give euch of them a million dollars the day of their mar- riage,” ‘said the Senator. ‘J would still want each to know how to cook, make her own clothes, and, in fact, be a superior housekecper.” The skillful cook and housekeeper is the one who secures the maximum results with a minimum expenditure of money. Any cook should be able to serve a good meal with an unlimited pocketbook at her disposal. The test comes when this is done at small ex- pense, and the highest art, as all clever cooks acknowledge, is to make a good meal out of left-overs that the thriftless throw away. The wasteful- ness at the table of the American hotel and restaurant has always amaz- ed the toreign traveller. — From Leslie’s.

Six million five hundred thousand pounds of chicle, the basis of chewing gum, Were imported into the United States in 1915, accordiny to figures compiled by the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce at Washing- ton, This product is the dried milky juice of the tropical sapodilla tree. The countries from which practically all of it was obtained were Mexico, Canada, British Honduras, Venezuela, and the Central American republics. Mexico and Canada between them pro- duced more than two-thirds of the total amount imported. The chicle imported into this country during thy last ten years has cost nearly $35,000,- 000, which gives some idea of the pop- ularity of gum chewing among Ameri- cans,

Atmospheric precipitations carry to the soil varying amounts of sulphur, depending upon the proximity of ci- ties, industrial plants or natural sources of gases containing sulphur. Kossovich found that the quantity fal- ling with the precipitation of an acre annually varied from nine pounds in the country to 72 pounds in the neigh- borhood of towns and industrial works. This author states that the continuous introduction of sulphur from the ate mosphere is essential to vegetation and for maintaining a-supply to off- set the rapid depletion of the supply of sulphur in the soil by leachin.

A man name Stone and a man name Wood met on the street on a nearby city and they stopped for a few min- utes to exchange a few cheerful views when a woman in a particularly no- ticeable sheath gown passed. Sim- ultanecously Wood turned to Stone and Stone turned to Wood, then both turned to rubber.

“Dear old things!" said hie, apostro- phising alfectionately a necklace of diamonds, pearls and emeralds in an eld-fashioned setting. “Ll suppose you will think my taste atrocious, but I jike these barbaric ornaments better than all your modern platinum-set dlamonds, Which to me have always au dead, dull look. 1 suppose it's be- eatuse T remember these gaudy things round, the neck and on the dress of ny grandmother.”

Lady Ursula was watching, not the jewels but her husband. Perhaps, loyal as she was, all these jewels, this chase from the country to the other, the tales she had just heard, the new light in whieh she had seen Paul that morning, had all combined to make her, at the bottom of her heart, vag- uely suspicious and ill at

Her innocent blue eyes were fixed upon him, her lips were parted, and it was easy to read upon her counten- anee the varying thoughts that rose in her mind as she looked at her hus- band,

And he, being infinitely cleverer than she, knew exactly what was pass- ing in her mind, and recognized the necessity of caution in his dealings with her,

His intentions had been to take the jewels away trom her, with the ex- ception of one or two of the most modest ornaments, and to dispose of them in his own way, on pretence of putting them in a safe place. Now he began to wonder whether she would suffer this, or whether their disappear- ance would rouse fresh doubt in her mind,

There was a pause, during which he played with the heavy old) neck- lace, and Lady Ursula watched him. At last he said—

“EL wonder whether T was right in Telusing your brother permission to

best plan, after all, to leave them in a safe place while we ure travelling about.”

Lady Ursula heut forward eagerly.

“May [ take then back to Tom, then!” asked she.

Paul laughed.

“No,” he said. “Not after what he said to me last night. Call it cus- redness if vou will, but I don’t feel inclined to do anything your brother Wants me to do.”

A shadow crossed her face, and it was plain that once again suspicion was clouding her mind.

“Look here,” said Paul, ‘if you like, Tl put them away till we come back to Paris on our way back to England.”

She raised her head and looked ttraight in his face. “Put them away? Where?’ she

asked, .

It seemed to him that she was sus- picious again. He waved his hand impatiently.

“Oh 1 could get them locked up at a banker's said he,

Lady Ursula shook her head.

“No” she said softly, ‘twe'll keep them with us, Paul, JT don’t: really mind the responsibility, and—well, I'd rather,”

Paul was taken aback. Not having been present at the mterview between the brother and sister, he could not tell exactly what had passed between them, and he could not buat suspect tliat the poison of suspicion had been justilled into his wife’s mind by Lord Eastling to an extent which made it dangerous to Insist upon taking the jewellery away from her against her will,

They said nothing to this, but Paul guessed from the expressive and gloomy glances which the other two exchanged, that he was geing to take a plunge into difficulties

When they were all together in the pleasant second floor bedroom, with the Winter afternoon sun streaming through the window, Paul took a seat which faced them both, and said--

Authorities Names of Persons Receiving letters by Secret Courier

Refuses to Give German

The latest story of heroism that comes from Belgium has to do with a Belgium woman, a resident of one of the suburbs of Brussels. It is told in a letter received in Toronto, that was smuggled across the Belyian fron- tier, having been carried from Brus- sels by special courier, an operation, incidentally, which is extremely haz- ardous in view of the more rigorous | German restrictions, and the imposi- tion of the death penalty upon any- one found carrying letters or disposing of papers or intelligence that, would in any way apprize the Bruxellois of the true conditions that obtained in the outer world.

This particular Belgian woman of courage and -bravery had been for months without news of her husband, tan officer in the Belgian army, until i finally she discovered one of the agen- cies through which she could have that intelligenee for which she yearn- ed. But the Germans gained posses- sion of one of the letters with the re- sult that the woman was placed under larrest. It happened that a number of | | People received letters by the same }eourier and the Germans immediately determined that they would exccute | the courler and punish the parties ; Who were contributories te this latest linfraction of German law.

Fly Danger

They Spread Disease and Are a Seri ous Menace to Health

House flies are now recognized as most dangerous carriers of the germs of such cliseases as typhoid fever, in- fantile diarrhoca, tuberculosis, ete. From filth and decaying materials, they carry infection to the home and to the food which we eat.

The best method to exterminate flies is to prevent their breeding. House-flies breed in deeaying or de- composing vegetable and animal mat- ter and in exerement. Stable refuse is especially attractive to them. In cities this should be stored in dark fly-proof receptacles and should be regularly removed within six days in summer, farm manure should also be removed within the same time and either spread on the fields or stored at a distance of not less than a quart- er mile from a house or dwelling. Manure piles may be treated with borax, using three-fifths of a pound to every ten cubic feet of manure. Scatter the dry borax principally around the sides anc cdges of the pile and wash in with water.

Kitehen refuse is a favorite breed- ing place for flies, and great care should be taken to keep garbage cans tightly covered. The contents should be buried or burnt at once, if pos- sible, No refuse should be left ex- posed, Jf it cannot be disposed of at onee it should be sprinkled with borax, as described above, or with chloride of lime.

Dangerous Smokers

Many Serious Fires Directly Traceable to This Cause

Smokers are responsible for many fires. Along any street, cigar and cigarette stubs, and partly burned miutches may be seen almost every- where, carelessiy thrown aside by smokers, Similar carelessness oecurs in public and office buildings, busi- ness plaess and factories, Men enter oifice buildings where smoking is not aliowed, drop their cigars on the stalrs, on the floors of the corridor or possibly in the elevator, where they may roll to the bottom of an elevator shaft, into a possible accumu. lution of weste paper, and cause a tire, Others forgetiully throw their cigar or cigarette stubs and matches into the wastepaper basket. If the basket is of combustible material the sinouldering stub will eventually burst into flame.

hazard. While most factories have a strict rule egainst sinoking it is a common practice for employees to

“Night up’ before leaving, and drop their lighted matches; these, falling among inflammable imaterials, later break into flame. Many evening fires in factories and business places may be traced to this cause,

Open gratings and broken prisms in sidewalk lights are other common receptacles for these dangerous fires starters, pedestrains dropping stubs and matches regardless of results.

Since the fire which destroyed the Parliament buildings at Ottawa the Dominion Government has issued an order prohibiting smoking in any building occupied by the public serv- ice,

THINBLOODED PEOPLE

Some people have a tendency to be- come thin-blooded just as others have an inherited tendeney to rheumatism or nervous disorders.

[For months I had been overworked, and bereave- ment added the tast straw neecssary to break down my constitution. I had a severe ever-present headache and pains in the back of the eyes, and at the same time T was seldom free from severe neuralgie pains. I was rafly hungry, and when I was it seemed to create a morbidness whieh made my other ills harder to bear. Of course I consulted a dogtor, and he told me a rest and change of air, just the thing I was unable in the cireum- stances to take. I had a particularly bad spell on the day my daughter re- turned from college, and she insisted that I should take Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. I was decidedly skeptical, but she got some and to please her I look them. The result—After the first box T was compelled to admit that I really didi feel better. After the second box I ungrudgingiy cadimitted that) they Were doing ine good, and after the sixth box [ felt free froni every ache and pain and in gratitude I began to praise the pills to others.

Collecting Waste Paper

Co-operation Necessary for Sucessful Results .

The article in Conservation for March on “Saving Waste Paper’ has aroused considerable interest through- out Canada, Many letters have been received asking for information as to methods of collection and disposal.

Waste paper is a commodity of very low value, and collecting and shipping charges reduce very materially — the final returns from same. To reduce the expense of gathering to the mini- mim, the paper should be collected through co-operation of those inter- ested or by loeal philanthropic — or charitable orgenizations. A. head- quarters should be established, or collection boxes distributed, where the paper may be left. For shipping, the paper should be put into bales, for which a baling press ‘is necessary. There are many types of press on the market ,several at moderate prices.

To secure the minimum shipping charges it is essential that shipments be made in car lots, as the fess than car lot rate is much higher. Usually the paper must be shipped to con-| siderable distances to the mill or dealer and adjoining municipalities might ,lf necessary, co-operate in making up car lots.

Apart from the monetary return for saving this wasted material, there is the further incentive of assisting to reduce the demand upon the forests of Canada to supply new material for the ever increasing requirements of the paper-making industry.
