potato beetle, $10,000, 000; cotton worm, $30,000,000; chinch bug and Rocky Mountain locust each $100,000,000, it is very evident that birds which make them a considerable portion of their fogd are too valuable to be killed just for sport.As a seed\u2014and weed\u2014destroyer, ita mission is scarcely less important.The food capacity of each bird is estimated at a half ounce per day.Some one, taking Virginia for the basis of computation and allowing four quails to the square mile, flnds that in that state alone 573 tons of seeds are consumed by quails during the months from September 1 to April 80.Some of our worst weeds are also Included in the list, as grab grass, black plantain, cockle, orange hawk-weed, rag-weed, fox tail, wild morning glory and bindweed.Though a prolific race, quails have other enemies than the gunner to work for their extinction.One of the most common is heavy snow, cutting off their food supply.As they are ground birds, heavy snow followed by rain or sleet often forms a crust under which they are hopelessly buried.\u2018The farmer who scatters grain free ly about the yard in time of heavy snow will find that they are as regular feeders as his domestic fowls, and the little care given for the short period required pays in pleasure as well as in dollars and cents.USE FRESH MANURE IN FALL When Distributed at Planting Time Fermentation Burns Roots of Plante\u2014Plow In Fall.Do not use fresh manure at planting time.The fermentation burns the roots of young plants.It is a good plan to plow fresh manure in the fall and leave the ground rough all winter, so that the alternate freezing and thawing will crumble the soil.Use only well-rotted manure at planting time.If you have none, you would better buy chemical fertilizers, unless your land is desperately in need of decaying vegetable fiber, which it probably is.For leaf and stem crops, choose a kind of fertilizer which i{s rich in nitrogen; for fruit and flowers a kind which bas a good proportioff of phos- phorio acid and potash.Potatoes and other root crops also require plenty of potash.Machinery ls Cheapest.some farmers declare that it is cheaper to hire men to run the farm than to-buy machinery.Maybe it is but nobody can prove it.Besides the machines never go to town on Saturday and fail to come back on Monday, but are always right on the job when needed and the wife does not have to cook and wash for them.HERE'S THE HYGIENIC HOME Engush Inventor Declares riouses Bulit of Porcelain Would Make Ideal Habitations.A home of porcelain, that can be erected with a screwdriver and wrench in a few hours, is the plan of W.Hales Turner, who calls himeelf \u201cthe pioneer of porcelain,\u201d and who has explained to a London Dally Mirror reportor some details of his project -\u201cIn the construction of the porcelain house,\u201d he said, \u201cthere is a complete absence of all absorbent materials, such as bricks and mortar, plaster, whitewaeli, concrete, woodwork and paper.The complete porcelain house is constructed as follows: Framework, preferably of light, rust-proof metal.In this framework are fitted the huge porcelain panels, half an inch thick, 6 feet long and 3 feet wide, weighing 5 pounds to the superficial feot, decorated and glazed on both sides to resist wind, storm and weather, with steam-tight joints made of copper coated asbestos tape.\u201cPorcelain is non-absorbent, insect and germ proof and washable, and it makes possible for all a perfectly hygienic home.As for warmth\u2014an inch thick wall of pure porcelain glazed both sides is better able to keep out cold than an 18-inch brick wall.With bricks and mortar it takes monthe to erect a house of, say, five rooms; a porcelain house of the same size can be put up in a few hours.\u201d MIGHT TURN IT TO ACCOUNT John D.Archbold's Idea of What He Could Do With Premature Obituary.John D.Archbold, at a luncheon that followed the launching of the John D.Archbold oll tanker at Newport News, talked in an interesting reminiscent vein about newspapers.\u201cCertain inaccuracies have appeared about me in newspapers,\u201d he said, \u201cbut I have always tried to put up with them\u2014tried, even, to turn them to good account.\u201cOne of these inaccuracies was a long obituary that a certain paper printed of myself.A young man at the time, I called on the editor and sald mildly: \u201cHow did it come to be printed, sir?\u201c\u2018Come to be printed?sald he.\u2018Why, the man died, and eo we printed | it.Do you think we print obituaries of the living?\u201c*No, not as a rule,\u2019 said I, \u2018only I'm the Archbold referred to here, and\u2014 \u201c*We'll make a correction,\u2019 said the editor hurriedly.\u2018We'll make a cor rection in tomorrow's issue.\u2019 \u201c\u2018Oh, 1 don't know, sald L \u2018Per haps you'd better let it stand.I can show it to my friends when they come to borrow money from me.\u2019 \u201d Sounds Travel Through Fag.It has often been noticed that on wet and foggy days sounds are heard at a greater distance than on clear, fine days.It was Tyndall who ex plained the reason for this.He no ticed that the distance at which the sounds of fog horns, whistles, shote could be heard varied from day to day from two to twelve miles.The cause of this difference is found in the degree of homogeneity of the air.On a foggy or spowy day the air may be perfectly homogeneous; this permits sound to travel a great distance.In clear weather the alr may be composed of vertical layers of differing consistency, and the sound- waves are reflected from the surfaces of the layers.Probably they are also refracted in passing through the several layers.Currents of warm ascending afr form in one place and currents of cold descending air form in others.Thus the atmosphere may be very transparent optically and very opaque acoustically.Anthropological Conclusions.In a recent lecture before the Royal institute in London Prof.Arthur Keith, tn an anthropological study, gave it as his opinion that Shake speare was a descendant of the bronze age invaders, the true or round head people.This was a remarkable fact, the professor added, for it was this same short-headed stock, spread abroad in central Europe, throughout Germany, France and Italy, which has produced the world's finest artists Burns, he said, on the contrary, was a good representative of the long-headed type of man.His skull was very broad and of excessive length, and appeared to be closely set to the neck.It rep resented an ancient type.Swiss Banks Thrive.The Swiss republic is fast becoming one of the great money powers of the world.It is estimated that 30 Swiss banks have capital amounting to considerably more than the banking capitals of the national and state banks in New York city.Andre E.Sayons, one of the French students of finance who have investigated causes for the rise of the Swiss financial power, declares that it is due largely to a steady ml- gration of French capital which has been going on for years and which re cently has been prompted particularly by new taxes in France.The Artful Schemer.\u201cWhen it comes to ways and means, my wife is a wonder.\u201d \u201cSome fixer, eh?\u201d \u201cI should say so.Her latest stunt is to encourage an affair of the heart between the hired gir! and the hand some milkman, so the girl will get ug early in the mornine\u201d\u2014Pittaburel Dispatch.VERMONT ITEMS.The confirmation of the nomination of Andrew H.Peters as postmaster in Bradford was the culmination of a vigorous contest.The Grange at Putney is giving prises to children for gathering tent- caterpillar egg masses.The high school won first prize by collecting 80,720 masses.The E.& T.Fairbanks Co.of 8t.Johnsbury is baving set out the 100,- 000 white seedlings ordered from the state forestry nursery.About 12,500 trees are set a day.Mrs, Harrlet O.Boynton observed her ninety-fifth birthday anniversary in 8t.Johnsbury May 4.Except for lameness, Mrs.Boynton is well preserved and very bright and entertaining.\u2019 While on the way to attend the funeral of his brother, D.M.Silsby, at Lyndonville, Mitchell 8ilsby, of Lu- nenburg, was called back by news of the sudden death of his wife of apoplexy.\u201c A henhawk, which swooped down into the henyard of Albert E.Doubleday; White River Junction, and was afterward shot by him, had a talon with a spread of four and one-half inches and a spread of its wings of four feet andfour inches.Bepjamin L.Terrill, alias Fred H.Talbot, who has been wanted for several weeks at St.Jobnsbury for the forgery ot a note for 87,000 and several large checks on Gilman Bros., of that town, has been caught in Nova Scotia by Sherift A.E.Straine, of Lit- tleton, N.H.\u201cThe shipment during the past week of 110 dairy cows from White River Junction to Ohio is a still further illustration of the demand for and popularity of the Vermont raised dairy cow, be it a pure bred or grade.This demand for the Vermont cow is not spasmodic but continuous and on the increase, for the days in the past have not been far apart when there was not some buyer from the Middle West states iu town.This is a new and exceedingly important source of income for the Vermont farmer, and one that should receive his most careful consideration.\u201d\u2014White River Junction Landmark.Responsibilities of Newspaper Work.[Rutland News.] | The Rev.Dr.Washington Gladden, of Columbus, Ohio, addressing the national newspaper conference at Lawrence, Kans., referred to the profession as a calling \u2018\u2018as sacred as the ministry.\u201d He urged that the newspapers should teach people to avoid exaggeration and violent speech, should resist the tendecy to substitute mob spirit for deliberation, should uphold character as against money and popularity, should turn attention, away from the negative virtue of exposing evil, to the positive virtue of discerning and praising the good.The editors may not have put these thoughts into words.The newspaper man is apt to be careless about exterior appearances.When a publisher\u2019s office is littered with waste paper, and the windows lack washing, it is hard for the public to realize that the man who does the writing at the cluttery desk is really exercising the power and influence of the pulpit, only mul- tipled several times.The newspapers have almost invar- ably been loyal to the ideal of character as against money.Newspaper making is not usually 8 money making profession.The men who go into it do so from natural aptitude for writing, or from gifts of observation of human nature.They are ofa philosophical habit of mind, finding their satisfaction in the daily humor of life, and in rewards other than money.The metropolitan public in choosing its newspapers, has short memories.If a lie is told to-day, by the time night comes the public has forgotten what paper told it.In less overgrown and more normal communities, a newspaper that fails to tell the truth is regarded in just the same light asa falsifying neighbor.In emphasizing the evils of life, the newspapers reflect the every day habits of the community.Scandalous gossip leaps from tongue to tongue, news of the good deed moves slowly if at all.The newspaper should print all it can about every movement tending to uplift the community.Most of them do.ITEMS OF INTEREST.Ammonia bombs are being used successfully as fire extinguishers.Switzerland bas four coôperative associations for the growing and marketing of forest products.More than 65,000,000 pounds off alominum were consumed in various industries in the United States last year.In France farmers are experimenting with a prolific potato from Uruguay, which perpetuates itself with roots left in the soil.A special line of men\u2019s silk and wool hose;

they are the only hope of the liquor party.But some pitfalls ave likely to be encountered in this councction.Inany case the Government would gain nothing and might stand a chance to lose the support of many people of the better glass by yielding to the demands of the liquor interests aftera certain date has been agreed upon and established.The Ottawa authorities are not altogether foolishi; the date will not be changed.CORDEAU BUILDING GUTTED.¥iremen Had Busy Time on Friday\u2014 DBl-«ze Started in Stable.At about 8S o'clock Friday morning the gong sounded for a fire which started in tho stable beneath Ulric Cordenu\u2019s blacksmith shop and quick- Iy spread to the adjoining residential building owned by Mr.Cordeau.The building ie a large frame structure and the prolonged dry weather bad added to the hazard.When the first reel arrived a sheet of flame was shooting to tho top of the North wall and some thought the building was doomed, but the fire wns soon under control, ul- though it had worked into the rear walle and roofs and kept the firemen busy for about two hours.Meantime hoth shop and dwellings had beon stripped of most of their couteuts.The fire got a good hold in the stable, shop and rear portion of the residential building.The damage to the front portion of the building was mostly caused by smoko and water.The roof was badly damaged.The reel of Hose Company No 1 Derby Line, was the first to arrive followed by the Pelow Hill squad and the Rock Island brigade, all doing good work.From the first effort the fire wae confined to the interior of the buildings attacked, and at no time were other buildings in danger.The basement tenement, fronting on the lane, was occupied by Eugene Savborn and family, the ground floor fronting on Caswell Avenue by Mrs.O.Cordeau and family, the top flat by Mr.and Mrs.Ulric Cordeau.The Boy Scouts were on hand and did good work, particularly in lookiug after the welfare of the occupants of the lower tenement.The bulldinge were owned by Mr.Ulric Cordeau and are understood to have been insured for $1,600.They will be rebuilt as soon ns the insurance ie adjusted.Children grow by nourishment\u2014not \u2018overloaded stomachs or rich foods but ualities that are readily converted into life-sustaining blood; too often their digestive powers cannot procure those \u2018qualities from ordinary foods which results n weakness, dullness and sickness.If your children are under-size, under weight, catch cold easily, are languid, backward, pale or frail, give them Scott's Emulsion which is pure medicinal nourishment, It sharpens the appetite, builds bealthy flesh, firm muscles and active brains.Scott's is ng-food for children.Refuse alcoholic substitutes.BOY SCOUTS CONTEST.The first tournament of the loeal Boy Scout organization was held at the Derby Line Athletio Field last Saturday afternoon.The weather was not wholly favorable,-but the program of events was carried out as follows: Drill, tent pitching and making; signaling by semaphore; first aid work.Iu the last there were four features, fireman\u2019s lift, resuscitation or restoring a drowned person, stretcher work, properly bafdaging the thigh.The coutestants in the several events were the Tomifobia and the College troups, and the programme was very interestivg, for the scouts did earnest, effoctive work showing a great deal of practice.The judges were Col.B.B.Morrill, Dr.John C.Colby and Rev.F.B.Rankin.Tomifobin won ali the events but #hat of resuscitation and that weut to the College troup.Record of points: Tomifobia 81, College 72.The tournament made the villages look like preparation for war, as the sevuts oppeared in their natty Kahki uniforms and acoutrement.They had prepared their rations of baked beans, coffee, at the field, planning to serve them there, but the unfavorable weather drove them to their regular meeting place in the basement of the Congregational Church where all were guests of the Tomifobias.About one hundred were present atthe church and all pro- nounesd the day very successful.An opportunity was given the citizens to witness the actual work of the Scout ovement, and it was wonderful to see what the boys are getting out of the traiving-reliance.The chief aim seemed to be self reliance und its iuteiligent application to the expression of the spirit of service for others, the spirit of playing fair and being a gentleman in the true sense.The placing of truth and honesty in the fore-front is a splendid feature.The work Saturday was a compliment to the scoutmasters, but they are all men that get their compensation from the doing and the attainment of the scouts.The trophy of the day to the winning troup was a national flag, but this is open to competitive work for the year.Scouts from Newport and West Derby were in attendance.The local troups gointo aunual camp at Lake Massawippi the last of June or first of July, and they will need about 8100 to defray the expenses beyond that assumed by the scouts.Contributions for this most worthy object can be sent to Mr.Hallett or Wesiey Dorman.The scouts wish to thank Mr.Rankin of Newport for his interest.FIRE IN A BARREL.Friday evening a brief but exciting commotion was caused by tho sounding of the gong for a fire in a barrel at Derby Line.The scene was the Derby Line Fruit Company's store in the Waldron block.A barrel of waste paper had been left on the veranda in rear of the store, aud into this some one had thrown a cigarette stub.Fortunately the rear door was open so that the flame attracted immediate attention when the flash came.There was no water tap in the store, aud inthe excitement same one kicked in the staves, which did not materially help matters, but at the oppor- tute moment another man arrived with a pail of water.The effect was magical; the remains of the barrel were carried through the store to the street to be viewed by an increassng multitude, called out by the alarm.MEMORIAL DAY.For some years, the teachers and pupils of the Derby Line schools have prepared the entertainment at the Haskell Opera House on Memurial Day.It has been quite an arduous task, involving a great amount of time and labor, which has been done cheerfully and well, This year the old soldiers feel that they ought to provide the entertainment, and they have decided to hold the exercises in Foster\u2019s grove, easterly of General Butterfield\u2019s residence, and have a basket picnic for the scholars.The Grand Army Post will furnish tables and will provide boiled ham, buttered rolls and lemonade, and the children and their friends will bring anything they choose.The clergy, press and others will be asked to make a few five-minute speeches, and it is hoped that all will bave a good time.Al are Invited to come and join in the observance of the day.The teachers and children and all who are willing will meet at the Derby Line Hotel at 180 p.m., Saturday, May 80.The International Cornet Band will be in attendance.The line will form ang, march from the hotel tothe cemetery, where the veterans will decorate the soldier\u2019s graves.The lines will then be reformed and all will march to the grove, where, after simple exercises, the picnic will take place.We trust you will all come to the pionic as you bave #0 often come to the Opera House.STEPREN SPALDING Post G.A.R, JOHN WALSH, commander.The E.& T.Fairbanks Co.of St, Johnsbury is having set oat the 100,- 000 white seedlings ordered from the state forestry nursery.About 12,500 trees are set a day.ABOUT OUR NEIGHBORS.The annual county cavalury ball of the 26th Stanstead Dragoons has been planned to take place in August this year.As tho officers are all so busy getting ready for the great annual training camp at Petewawa in June they cannot spare the time to bring it about at an earlier date.However, very elaborate plane are under way for a very finereception and ball which will surpass that of last year.The following liet of flowers was omitted from the notice of the death of Mrs.Alonzo Whoeler last weok: Spray calla lilies, Mr.A.L.Wheeler; spray carnations, Mrs.H.Baird, Mr.and Mrs.Chas.Hartwell, Miss Ger- trade Hartwell; spray carnations, Mies Miunie Wheeler, Miss Giadys Wheeler, Agnes Trudeau; spray carnations, Mr, and Mre.©.C.Wells; spray carnations, Mre.Ozro Case and Sadie Fiske; pillow A.C.Church, Beebe; pillow, W.H.and F.M.; epray cala lilies und pillow, employés of Butter- field shops.The greattraining camp at Petewawa, commencing June 15th, will be the largest gathering of Canadian militiamen ever beld in Canada, ae it is estimated there will be over 12,000 cavalrymen, ariillerymen and infantry there, and the drill and mauœuvres will be on a large scale combining all arm of the service which will make the annual training period of 12 days very interesting to every man who attends.Petewawa is considered the fluest training ground in the British Ewpire, naturally we are anxious that our Stanstead County cavalrymen render a good account of themselves among so many from all sections of Canada, and do the grand old county of Btanstead honor.Our citizens should come forward and help the officers of our county regiment in recruiting good men and aiding them in finding a goud class of cavalry horses, so that we may have just rea- sou to feel pound of our cavalrymen.The trip to Petewawa will be made for the most-part in the night and splendid arrangements have been made for good train service and superior cars for both men and horses; indeed itis a \u201ctest year\u2019 on both the Militia Department and our railroad facilities for moving large numbers of men and supplies.The popular new book, \u201cThe Stanstead cavalry\u201d is most interesting reading to those who are interested iv the early military history of Stanstead county and furnishes much useful information to the citizen- so'diers of our county to-day.Every member of our county regiment shouid possess a copy of the history of his regiment; it will make him a better soldier a beter man, and a better citizen.VICTORIA DAY RACES.The races at the Stanstead Driving Park, Monday afternoon were very successful.About a thousand people were present and everybody pronounced the races excellent.Official score.GREEN RACE Lady 8, Renihan Bros, & U.Cordeau, Tommy M, E.Marvin, Laureta, E.Marvin, Sarah Jane, C.Kelley, Times 1.13';, L.18',, 1.1 2.35 CLASS Two Stars, D.K.Eastman, Jenny Lynn, B.C.Draw, Tominy M, E.Marvin, Time;

CHIEF PACTOR IN NATIONAL Di.GENERACY.A wave of degeneracy is sweepng the land, and its development threatens the physical vitality of the nation.Within a period of 50 years the population of the United States increased 880 per cent, while the number of insane and feeble-minded increased 950 per cent.What is the cause of this degeneracy?A hundred different intermediate agencies may contribute to the undo ing of the race, but back of them all stands alcohol as the chief degenerative factor.Statietics compiled by the leading insurance companies, and presented by Bir T, P.Whitaker in a report to the British parliament, show that out of every 1,000 deaths among the population at large, 440 are due to alcohol.This would mean a mortality from alcohol in the United States of 680,000 a year.The great burden of drink is not borne by the drinker, but by the drinkers\u2019 children.In our studies among school children in New York city we find that 62 per cent.are the children of drinking parents, and that 91 per cent, of these children of drinking parents euffer from some functional or organic disease.If this percentage holds good over the entire country there are 13,000,000 children of a school age that are afflicted with functional and organic diseases, and less than two and a half millions of these are free from hereditary alcohol taint, A nation half diseased and half well cannot live, but here we show three.fifths of the rising generation mentally and physically diseased.\u2014Dr.L, Alexander MacNicholl.STRIKES FROM THE SHOULDER.(From an Address of MORRIS SHEPPARD, Before the Texas Legislature After H's Election as Uni Btates Senator.) The liquor trafic is a peril to so- clety because it undermines the health, the strength, and the integrity of man.It is a source of danger to osterity because the alcoholic taint oredooms the unborn millions to degeneracy and to disease.I shall oppose this scourge until my arm can strike no longer and my tongue can speak no more.I shall eppose it be! cause I hear the cries of children who are hungering for bread.I shall oppose it because 1 see a mother's wasted face, her pale lips pleading with the besotted figure at her side.I shall oppose it because I see the staggering forms of men whose trembling hands hold but the ashes of their strength and pride.I shall op pose it because it mocks all manhood and makes of woman's virtue a commodity of the slums.I shall oppose it because I see its battle line outstretched across the globe, threatening the pure, the true, the good.I shall oppose it because its abolition will mean a new stability for the republic, a new radiance for the flag.TROUBLE-MAKER A Pittsburgh paper tells us that \u201cone person out of every 95 in Pennsylvania was behind prison bars in 1911.Out of 707 prisoners receiving penitentiary sentence 80 per cent.were drinkers.Out of 10,607 prison- ergy sentenced to serve time in jalls and workhoused over 85 per cent.were drinkers.Out of 3,670 persons sentenced to the Allegheny workhouse in 1912, 92 per cent.were drinkers.Father Penn's children who are de pendent wholly or in part for support upon the taxpayers outnumber the combined armies of Meade and Lee at Gettysburg in 1863.The vast ma jority of them are the victims of John Barleycorn.One person out of every 45 in Father Penn's dominjon is dependent either as a lunatic, pauper or criminal.\u201d The drink traffic produces criminals, paupers, dependents and undesirables generally.The state pays the bills.The twentieth century taxpayer is waking up to the situation.He\u2014and she\u2014is moving to \u201cput the liquor busi ness out of the government and the government out of the liquor business.\u201d ONE EXCEPTION.Legitimate industries favoradly af fect each other.The liquor Wraflic unfavorably affects them all.The more it flourishes, the more they must decline.Its profits are taken from the merchant, and the manufacturers be- bind him; from the butcher, and the cattle raisers behind him; from the farmer, the miller, the baker, the builder, the shoemaker, the printer, the teacher, and the preacher, Every honest producer suffers from it.The country suffers from it.More than low tariff, or high tariff, or no tariff at all, it depreciates American industry~~A.A.Hopkins, Ph.D.ALCOHOL AS ASHES.In the production of alcoholio drinks the raw material is destroyed.Alcohol is not the outcome of a development or adaptation of food

YOUNG SIRL HER CLOTHES ALWAYS SOME THING OF A PROBLEM.Wise Mother, at This Stage of Her Daughter's Life, Will Provide Pretty Things and Teach Her to Take Care of Them.There is no period in a girl's life when it is so difficult to dress her successfully as between the ages of fourteen and seventeen, and though the problem of finding suitable clothes is one that faces all mothers of\u2019 growing daughters, one seldom finds any very wide selection of ready-made garments suited to this purpose, : In choosing frocks, a great deal depends on the girl herself, for it is no good buying dainty attire for the young person who considers the care of gowns and hats a perfectly unnecessary waste of time.Miss Sixteen, with opinions of this kind, needs a certain amount of training before any respect for her garments can be instilled effectively, and though the majority of girls today are as anxious to be as well turned out as thelr grown-up sisters, the tomboy malden still remains, and the difficulties of clothing her accordingly.\u201cI have often heard,\u201d said a mother recently, \u201cthat rough and serviceable materials, serge and holland in dark _colors, and such like, are all that should be used in a schoolgirl's outfit, but this 16, I think, a great mistake.No girl will ever learn to value her things and take a pride in her appearance if only supplied with garments of a workmanlike but ugly type.An occasional pretty gown, a becoming hat, soft solors, and light materials will, by their very charm, teach her better than a hundred wordy sermons the necessity for care where her possessions are concerned.\u201d This being the case, it 1s wisest to exercise great care in choosing a girl's clothes, and what is more, she should be allowed to make her own suggestions and have her individual ideas carried out as far as they are com- ' patible with good taste and common sense.Mothers who do this are laying the foundations of a practical Knowledge in the details of dress and expenditure that will prove invaluable in after years.FRILLY SPRING CHAPEAU Made of horeehair lace, with blue velvet band and quaint bouquet of flowers In Chinese design.FASHION\u2019S FANCIES The tunic idea is carried out in sep arate skirts.Elbow sleeves are frequently frilled with lace.The new serge coats have flaring and plaited skirts.The Gladstone collar is a little like the old-time Byron style.It stands up in the back and rolls over a bit.The skirt drapery of a belted after noon gown Is caught up the front with tassels, with a charming classic effect.The front finish of the new walst necks is changing.Now there is a tendency to squareness instead of the familiar V point.Kimono sleeves have actually gotten into babyland.Small children\u2019s coats have them; also the set-in sleeve.New Lingerie Frocks.The lingerie frock of this season has its white disputed by a strong note of color.Very often the frock is com: pleted with a little coatee of taffeta or of moire or of figured crepe, which note is repeated at the hem of the skirt Then, too, the high-standing collar is often in color, as was the case with one dotted swiss lingerie frock, where the girdle of \u201ctango\u201d was re-echoed in the embroidery of the Marie Stuart collar.Calla Lily Collars.One of the most popular collars to be seen on summer frocks will be the new calla lily style\u2014a style that curves gracefully away from the back of the neck and opens in the front, somewhat like the cup of a lily.Par ticularly when the collar is made of white crepe de chine, is the flower effect heightened.However, soft shadow lace is the medium generally used.INDOLENCE A NATIONAL TRAIT What Are Known as \u201cLeaners\u201d De cidedly in the Majority Among the Natives of Mexico.\u201cMexican indolencs has always had something to do with making Mexican national history,\u201d sald a traveler.\u201cMexico has a class of natives called \u2018leaners\u2019 from their habit of leaning against the side of a building to roll a cigarette.Once in this position the leaner adheres to it for hours.© \u201cTradition declares that a Mexican leaner once sued an American railroad builder for pulling down a building against which the plaintiff had been leaning.Damages were awarded for severe shock and inconvenience, and the court took occasion to recommend a law requiring one hour's notice under similar circumstances.\u201cMexican military forces are to some extent recruited from leaners.Mexican history has record of an insurgent force which was being pushed forward victoriously when it came to a stream which had swollen over night.The general was a leaner.He bivouacked to wait till the stream should subside, but it did not subside and he withdrew.He could easily have bridged a narrow cascade less than a mile from his camp, but that would have required a fresh initiative, which has no place in the practical philosophy of a leaner.\u201cBut he succeeded, anyhow, because his adversary was also a leaner.When the river fell the insurgent force came back, crossed without opposition, and casually took possession of the contested territory.\u201d POSTPONED TRIP TO EUROPE Comparison of the Ocean With Ship on Which He Was to 8ail De- clded This Man.He decided to take a late winter journey to Europe and bask in the sunshine of southern Italy.He engaged a statercom and passage on a steamer bound for Naples.Two days before sailing time he arrived in New York with all the baggage necessary for a successful trip abroad.Three or four days after that he was back in his home town, pursuing his usual business affairs, and \u201csaying nothing.\u201d A friend, unable to bear the silence, asked him one day why he had not gone to Europe.\u201cWell,\u201d sald the man, \u201cwhen I got to New York I looked at the boat that was to take me across the pond, and then I looked at the ocean and then I figured how many times bigger the ocean was than that boat.Then I figured that even if that boat was stood on end, none of it would be left on top of the water in case it should sink.\u201cAt that time, too, waves as big aa mountains were running and vessels were in trouble everywhere.The water was sickly green.I became dizzy Just looking at it, and then I decided that if the Atlantic could make me seasick just to look at it while I was standing on shore it would certainly kill me if 1 mixed up with it\u2014so I came home.\u201d A Fable, A Cow which was one of a herd being led through the streets to the Slaughter House, chanced to come across a Milk Wagon.The

the Man is transferiing from one receptacle to another.\u201d \u201cI am indeed amazed by the ignorance you display,\u201d replied the Horse.\u201cThe fluid is Milk.\u201d \u201cIt that is Milk,\u201d

and brimstone.\u2014Rev.20:10.The ancient conception of the two opposing principles in the uni verse, although often perverted, is a correct one.There is an eter nal, unchangeable and infinitely powerful, holy and loving God, and there is a mali clous, wicked and powerful being in the universe whose name is in the text.Whether it 18 a pleasant thought or not, the devil 1s the god of this age, and is given great power, and, apparently, anticipating his doom, he is intensely active.Being wicked, he would make wickedness universal, and he uses all possible methods of corrupting men, created in the image and likeness of the God he hates, and unfortunately succeeds with a vast number of them.The Method of Deception.The devil now uses the method of deception rather than force, which in some ages of the world was used very generally.This deception may be of several kinds.The devil may asume an attitude of spectal sanctity, or goodness; he may direct the thought of man to the acceptance of error; or he may delude man to the reception of something that is branded as truly religious.Taking up the first form of deception, the devil appears sometimes as an angel of light.He appeared in a glittering and fascinating form to Eve in the Garden of Eden, and worked the ruin of the race morally.Many believe that the Anti christ, who will presume to take God's place, and thus claim supreme sane- tity, will be the devil himself.As we observe the present havoc in religious thinking, and study its evolution, we find that many of those who were champions of doctrinal error have posed as most serious seekers after truth, and have the reputation, ofttimes well established, of being men of sweet temper, most encouraging manners and captivating courtesy.This is not strange, for men of an opposite type, as champions, would at once defeat the devil's purposes.The method of delusion by leading men away from the truth has one of its strongest features in the persuasion that men should do their own thinking on religious subjects.The specious plea is made that the Christian religion 18 one of rationality and that therefore men must think out its great problems for themselves.They are urged to let nothing guide them in thinking, -not the Bible, nor Christian teachers, but that they should start almost ahywhere and work the problems out.The result is inevitable, for man\u2019s thoughts\u2019 are not God's thoughts and God's thoughts only are correct in this sphere, man is ever learning but never able to come to a knowledge of the truth.Indeed, he ordinarily gets further and further from it.Fortunate is.the man who sees that he must have some safe starting point for religious thought, and that he must hold himself loyally to the lines of its development.Satanic Delusions.We have the delusion of universal salvation based on a false conception of the character of God, emphasis being placed on the love of God, which is unscripturally defined, the justice and holiness of God being practically eliminated from thought.All those yielding to this delusion are not in the denomination known as Universal- ists, whose courage in professing what they believe is in itself worthy of commendation.There is the delusion of religious formalism.Men and women are per suaded to attach themselves to re liglous socleties without any demand being made on them to put into their lives the principles of Christian relig- fon, nor for the necessity of a new birth and genuine repentance and simple faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, who is the only Mediator between God and man.Those ylelding to this de- lusfon have a form of godliness but deny the power thereof.There is the delusion of false optimism, which, while not strictly religious, eventuates as religious delusions do.The principle that God is on his throne and all is right with the world, has almost universal approval, being echoed from thousands of pulpits.We are in a period of delusions along Biblical lines as in no previous age.A man or woman gets some root of religious thought, and pursuing fit independently, discovering that in or der to its wider acceptance it must have Biblical indorsement, files to the Bible and selects from Its contents that which ostensibly supports the thoory proposed.Within the last twenty-five years there have been sov- eral such delusions, and hundreds of thousands of men and women have de come their victims.These delusions are propagated at tha anmense of mil tions of dollars.Why Do Women Suffer When They Could Be Well ?able to enjoy life,

hold their umbrellas down in or der to protest their faces from the driving rain,\u201d explained a New York ambulance surgeon.\u201cIn their desire to protect themselves from the rain they place themselves in grave danger of being struck and run over by sur face cars, automobiles and other vehicles.\u201cIf you wish proof of my assertion Just stand in a doorway some night where you are protected from the raln and where you are in a position to see an expanse of thoroughfare which all kinds of vebicles use.You will be surprised at the large number of persons you will notice orossing the thoroughfare with their umbrellas held down so far that it is impossible for them to see anything approaching.They seem oblivious of danger, and a spectator would suppose from their actions that there was not the remotest chance of an accident occurring.\u201cIt is a fact that many pedestrians are injured on windy, rainy nights.With their umbrellas pulled down so that it is impossible to gee ahead or to the sides, the pedestrians walk in front of vehicles and are knocked down and injured before they realize what has happened.\u201d FROM BODY OF CATERPILLAR Australia Has Curious Plant Which Develops From Action of Parasite on Insect.Nature is a curious force.There is a caterpillar in Australia.It looks for food under leaves and twigs in the usual way.As it searches, a parasite, specially equipped by nature for the purpose, drops on ite neck and fastens itself there.In a week or two thie little parasite seed begins to germinate, drawing its nourishment from the very life blood of the insect.The latter, feeling sick, buries itself about two inches into the ground.= Eventually a pale green stalk, about twelve Inches high, at the summit of which 1s a most extracrdinary flower, somewhat resembling the top of & bulrush when in seed, appears.The poor caterpillar\u2019s refuge in the ground is of no avall, for its whole interior has to make rcom for a mass of roots.Sucked as dry as a bone, it is actually converted into a stick of wood.Applied Advice.Some time ago an Alabama lady kindly undertook to advise one of her negro maids as to certain rules of propriety that always should be observed by young women to whom at tentions are pald by gentlemen friends.One evening the lady, wondering whether her seeds of advice had fallen upon rocky ground, stationed herself in a rocker near the kitchen door, where she was enter tained by the following dialogue: \u201cLook here, don't you try to git fresh wif me! Mah name's Miss Smith\u2014not Mary.Ah don\u2019t 'low mah best an\u2019 most pa\u2018tic\u2019lar friends to call me Mary.\u201d \u201cAh beg your pahdon, Miss Smith.But say, Miss Smith, would

were fMustrated in a case before a civil court a few days ago.In this case the plaintiff was a Frenchman, a Monsieur Balbo, who at a sale bought for $100 a mahogany desk which was de scribed to him as an \u201cempire\u201d desk.It proved, however, to be of modern make, and M.Balbo sued the seller for giving a false trade description.The defense was illuminating.It was set out that there are three ways of describing such furniture: \u201cEmpire style\u201d means modern furniture {mi tated from old models; \u201cempire fur niture\u201d indicates there is a doubt as to its origin, and \u201cempire opaque\u201d is the only guaranty for authentic fur niture of the empire period.Ships\u2019 Hulls Quickly Cleaned.Mr, F.C.Browne of Melbourne, Aus tralia, has invented an ingenious machine for cleaning the hulls of ships below the water line.In this contrivance a watertight dynamo drives a revolving brush that is held firmly against the hull of the ship by a small propeller.After the machine has been lowered by a crane from a small beat alongside the steamer, the end that holds the rapidly revolving brush is worked up and down the sides of the vessel.It is stated that the machine oan clean an 8,000-ton steamer in six or seven bours.Faise Alarm.Belle (slyly)\u2014I noticed a percep tible coldness between George and Maria this evening as they sat at a

Something Just a Little Out of the Ordinary.Novel ideas for making pretty pine cushions are difficult to obtain, but in our sketch we show something quite new in the shape of a quaint little cushion mpde to represent a spider's web.It can be carried out in any size to suit different requirements; and in making it, {A the first place a circular piece of stiff cardboard must be cut out.This card is well padded with cotton wool-on that side which \u2018is to be the front, and the wool should be arranged so that it is much thicker in the center than at the sides.It is then covered with cream-colored satin, the material being stretched tightly over the wool and fastened on at the back of the card with a strong adhesive.The spider's web is worked upon the material with gold thread, and this should of course be done prior to covering the card.The cush- fon is finished off all round the edge with a gold silk cord carried into three loops at the top, and by the center loop it can be suspended from a nail in the wall.To complete this very novel cushion one of those little paper Japauese spiders can be procured and tacked upon one side as suggested in the sketch.Quaint little noveltles always at tract attention at a bazar, and a number of these cushions made in different sizes will look very pretty on a stall and should command a ready sale.This cushion could, of course, be used equally well laid flat upon the dressing-table if preferred.\u2014Young Ladies\u2019 Journal.PAJAMAS GROWING IN FAVOR Especially Is the Younger Generation Taking to This Comfortable Sleeping Garment.There are a few of us women who have been sensible enough to take to pajamas, but the rest of us cling to our nighties with a tendency worthy of a bigger cause.Pajamas are sensible, you know, because their trousers can\u2019t get up and wrap about one's walst as the skirt of the old-time nightgown always did, always does and always will.Besides, pajamas are be: coming if they are pretty and fit fair ly well.Especially do boarding school girls like them.They are so much warmer than the night robe, when one Is running about from one room to another to surreptitious spreads and the like.So, when you have occasion to give a boarding school girl or a college girl a present, why not give her a pair of embroidered pajamas?They may be very plain, with just a briar stitching about the places where there must be hems and a monogram over the handkerchief pocket, with silk frogs to fasten the coat, or they may be quite alaborate and feminine, with a much smbroidered coat, and may even have à touch of embroidery about the bot- som of the trouser legs.Pajamas with turn-back shawl collars are somewhat 2ewer than the coats with a simple jollariess V.Cream silk pajamas with à wild rose pattern or forget-me-not pattern down the front of the jacket, about the shawl collar and the turn- sack cuffs are fascinating.There are any number of other collars, and also sther materials besides silk.Pajamas \"should never be, of course, a dark color.Daintiness must be their keynote, and, therefore, we must adhere to the pastel shades.CHIC FRENCH CREATION Model of natural reed trimmed witn

Season It is quite In the accepted crder of things that plaids and checks should put in an appearance for spring, but they have never made a more attrac- \u2018tive bid for favor than is the case this year.Among the various styles shepherd\u2019s plaid, in both large and small designs, 1s very determinedly to the fore, not only in the more familiar black and white expressions, but also in such varieties as white and chestnut brown, mole gray, violet, Nattier, hunters\u2019 green and navy blue.These plaids make up into the smartest lit- tie tailor-made suits imaginable, the dominating color picked up and accentuated in a velvet collar facing and round ball composite buttons.Then we get a wealth of silken plaids doing yeoman's service as the relieving note on gowns and costumes of navy serge and other plain materials.A case In point that most ably demon: strates this departure occurred witha & simple navy serge country sult, the \u2018plain skirt made high about the walst, and finished at the back with a few \u2018slight gathers held by a half-strap, as Is the way with nine out of every ten tallored models this season.And with this there went a dainty little shirt of Rob Roy tartan silk, tho same also requisitioned to line the straight, perfectly cut coat.A regular service gerge was employed, and the sudden flash of parti-coloring revealed when the fronts of the coat were thrown open was extremely effective.CORSET IS OF IMPORTANCE Fashionable Outline Makes It Imperative That a Good Deal of Atten- \u2018 tion Be Accorded It.i * \u2014 Although walsts are things of the past, let no one imagine that the cor set is no longer a necessity or is in any way a negligible quantity.Far trom'it.It is a modern paradox that in order to attain the natural figure groater attentjon than ever must be paid to the coreet.These wonderful \u2018nearly straight lines from the arm to the hirs, or rather to the knees, for the new corsets reach to just above the knees, are due more to the art of the corsetiere than to any dietary or exercise.The latest thing in corsets is very lightly boned, and has no bones at all over the hips.It is made tn most instances of tricot, either in a cotton or silk mesh, and is extremely supple and comfortable to wear, fitting without e wrinkle.Thelr variety is infinite.There are special models for athletic wear, for riding and dancing, very thin graceful ones for evening wear under draperies, and a more sturdy kind for general wear under tailor-mades.With the coming fash- lons the choice of the corset will be an affair of the greatest importance, for on it much of thelr gracefulness will depend.Floral Bands and Hatpina Floral millinery trimmings are stead- fly mounting in favor.Clusters of roses arranged so as to form huge pompons are especially smart.Compact bande of small flowers are used across plaques, at the edge of brims and midway up crowns.Hatpins made of small flowers are being shown by some of the leading houses.By means of these placed at some clever angle it is possible to transform a tailored hat into a dress hat.Corset Laces.Excellent corset laces may be made with crechet cotton.Unwind three long strands of cotton and crochet chain stitch, using all three strands together.This is very strong and pliable.\u2014Mother's Magasine, FOR FATHER'S DAY OF REST Eastern Journal Suggests That Mother Have List of Odd Jobs to Keep Him Busy.It is a wellknown fact that little things get done with less friction in some homes than in others.This is particularly the case when a man of the house is expected to do some little job.But he is not always approached in a manner that is conducive to the best accomplishment of the work.Most men dislike to have extra tasks \u2018\u201csprung\u201d on them.It is a masculine habit to enjoy thinking over a matter \u2014how it could be done best, eto.whereas, 8 woman enjoys acting upon impulse, even if she only uses pins to produce a quick result.Most husbands are willing to help their wives in any way they can.Bome never need prodding, but go about themselves, doing this or that, or \u201cthinking up\u201d various things to do to improve their place or to lighten the housework.But there are many other busy men who have but little time to \u201cputter about,\u201d and in order to use their spare time to the best effect their wives ought to have ready a list of jobs to be done whenever they are ready to do them, It is rather a satisfaction to a man than otherwise to dispose of a lot of odd jobs at one fell swoop on some rainy Saturday afternoon, or when he has unexpected leisure.A memorandum pad and a pencil kept in a handy place will well repay the woman who wants things done about the house that are beyond her province or powers.She should jot down as she thinks of the things that require attention: The loose hinge on the cellar door; a trellis that needs a few naîls; something that requires gluing, etc.,There is always something to be done, and it is safe to say it will be done sooner and better if the man knows that such a list is waiting for him.Look -about, you housekeepers to whom this advice is given, because next Saturday may be that rainy day when there would be time for doing a dozen little things if they were listed.\u2014Philadelphia Public Ledger.Last Words of an Eminent Lawgiver.\u201cSince we were deprived of.our office people have been makin\u2019 a football of the law in our former bailiwick,\u201d writes an ex-justice of the peace.\u201cWhilst we was in power they either had to walk @ chalkline or wabble off the earth, but it ain't so any more.The man that tried to set fire to the town hall because the mayor fined him $10 wasn\u2019t lynched, as he would have been in our day, but they've actually given him a fair trial! An\u2019 the man that stole the church bell an\u2019 pawned it for a gal lon of \u2018moonshine\u2019 has got forglve- ness an\u2019 is singin\u2019 in the choir! Be- aides cause they appealed from our decisions, instead of bein\u2019 in jail are runnin\u2019 for congress.We done our best for Georgia, but Georgia throwed us out, an\u2019 Lord only knows what'll become of our native state without our legal mind to say how come an\u2019 why.Anybody that wants to buy a code of Georgia, one Webster's blue- back speller an\u2019 Half of a dictionary should apply to us at once.We don\u2019t want anything to remind us of the day when our word was law an\u2019 gos pel in this benighted state.\u201d\u2014Atlanta Constitution, \u201cVictuals, Not Talk,\u201d a Dinner Motto.A former secretary of state, William M.Evarts, noted for his wit, as well as his great legal ability, had upen his plate a crest with the words, \u201cFacts non verba.\u201d An old congressman, who made no pretensions about Latin, when dining with the secretary said he supposed the words meant \u201cVictuals, not talk.\u201d One of the really pathetic things which all who attend public dinners must suffer is the sad, the often lamentably sad, attempts on the part of speakers to be funny.\u201cI am reminded of an Irishman,\u201d says one, and then comes a story dragged in by the heels, or \u201cI feel like the Dutchman,\u201d and out flows a venerable yarn maybe slightly pressed for the occasion like the speaker's own dress suit.\u201cI cannot see why it is thought nec-| essary for after dinner talkers to try\u2019 to be funny,\u201d remarks a writer tn the Philadelphia Ledger.\u201cVictuals, not talk,\u201d would be a first rate motto to have upon most public dinner plates.How Kipling Recelved His Name.The new Seven Seas edition of Rudyard Kipling has brought up a great deal of interesting and little-known gossip about the famous Englishman.For instance, how many Kipling lovers know that he was christened Joseph Rudyard Kipling?Like George Ber nard Shaw and Thomas Woodrow Wilson, Mr.Kipling has shown his sense of the value of words by lopping oft the uninteresting prenomen.The origin of his better-known name is interesting.Lake Rudyard ie à beautiful sheet of water in North Staf- fordshire.It was at a picnic at Lake Rudyard that young Lockwood

mental development of a child confront thoughtful parents today, consideration of the child outside of school and attention to its enr vironment within the school, according to a writer in the Journal of the American Medical association.\u201cWhether in country or in city,\u201d he says, \u201cthe home Influence on its health 1s most important.A constant and controllable factor is its food.Herein lies the home responsibility of the mother.She must learn that the food of the growing child is next only in importance to its feeding as an infant; and that the greatest good comes to it from plain, nutritious, well cooked and easily digested food; that it needs certain food for body etruc- ture and other foods to supply heat and energy.\u201cA child should frolic and romp and play because there is a natural relation between such muscular activity and the proper performance of such food material in carrying on their functions.The mother must also realize that rest is as important for the child as play, and that sufficient quiet, restful sleep does its equal part in storing energy and bringing about perfect development.Children need sunshine and fresh air, and at night should sleep in a well ventilated room with the windows well down from the top.They should be bathed regular- 1y and properly clothed.\u201cBut no matter how well fed and clothed, how clean and well nourished previous to its admission to school, the parents\u2019 Interest must follow the child to the school room and see that such environment does not undermine its health.Herein les the responsi bility of the father, as a citizen and taxpayer.It is his money that maintains the school, and it is his duty to see that his child is not forced into an overcrowded, poorly ventilated, overheated classroom, compelled to breathe for five hours a day the ex- FOR SALE 1 Eureka Stone Crusher, 1 Polygon Oement Mixer, | Van Gotider Holiow Wall outfit, 1 Geared Hoister, | 6 h.p.4cycle Gray Btationary Motor,
