THE YOUNGEST SOLDIER.
Belongs to the New South Wales
Lancers.
Trumpeter Roy Clayton Welsh, of
the New South Wales Lancers, is by
some years the most juvenile hero
bearing arms in defence of the old
flag.
This smart little fellow, a son of
Mr. W. G. Welsh, of Riverview, West
Maitland, N.S.W., though not yet
eight, holds awards for riding, and
has an excellent set up appearance
when mounted upon his charger, the
latter an excellent type of the Aus-
tralian horse.
When only a little more than a
couple of years of age, young Roy
Welsh could ride a pony ; after an-
other six months he indulged in
many a brisk canter, whilst at the
age of three years and a half this
astonishingly clever child was decor-
ated with a ribbon for special ex-
cellence in an exhibition of riding at
the Maitland horse show. Altogether
he. has won -fourteen such badges of
merit.
A littld4f•re than six months ago
young Fro Erasappointed supernum-
erary trumpeter to the Maitland
half squadron of Lancers, and took
part in the Military Tournament
held in the headquarters' town of
his troop.
During his course of service Roy
Welsh has taken part in a course of
field exercises, camping at night,
and roughing it with the rest of his
comrades.
As orderly trumpeter, this gallant
little Lancer is in immediate attend-
ance upon the officer in command,
and often when the smart Maitland
squadron is going through its field
evolutions, young Roy Welsh may
be seen leading where they follow.

Dodd's Almanac the Keane of
Helping Kr. Thomas Harter
Down There—Read that Dodd'e
Kidney Pills Would Cure Heart
Trouble—Tried them and Prov-
ed it True. • ,
Cape La Hone, Nfld., Aug. 19.—
The most popular remedy down here
this last few years is undoubtedly
Dodd's Kidney Pills. It is the only
one of the host advertised which uni-
versally shows that it may be relied
upon.
Medicines for Heart Trouble have
been advertised before in Newfound-
land but nobody placed any reliance
In them. The trouble was that they
did not act at the root of the mat-
ter—the Kidneys. Dodd's Kidney
Pills are entirely different to any
other treatment for Heart Trouble;
they act on the Kidneys first, and
for that very reason arc so success-
ful.
Mr. Thomas Darter of Cape La
Hune had trouble with his heart for
years, and could find nothing to
help him. But his own words will
better tell the story.
"For over six years," writes Mr.
Barter, "I had suffered intensely
with palpitation of the heart and
had, to give up work,... I could not
do anything at all until I saw in
Dodd's Almanac that.Dodd's Kidney
Pills would cure. Inc. I then sent
ler six boxes. I used five of them
and completely cured. I' can d0
my . Work egnin now as well as ever
I could. I are not much of a writer
but if you think this -letter se id
help any other person by being
printed in any of your publications
you are at liberty to print it, for I
am thdroughly grateful for Dodd's
Kidney Pills."
THERE WAS A LIKENESS,
AFTER ALL.
A Parisian swell recently had a
crayon picture of himself made,
which he afterwards pretended to
find fault with.
It does not bear the slightest re-
semblance to me, he said, and I will
not, take it.
The artist protested, but all to no
avail. All right, sir, he remarked,
finally, if it doesn't look at all like
you, of course I can't reasonably ex-
pect to get paid for it.
After the dandy had left the paint-
er added to the portrait a magnifi-
cent pair of ass's cars and exhibited
it in a window, thus altered, to the
gaze of the curious public. It had
not been long so exposed when the
dandy rushed into the artist's studio
in a towering rage, and, finding that
threats amounted to nothing, he at
last offered to buy it even at a con-
siderable advance upon the original
price.
It wasn't strange you didn't re-
cognize your resemblance of the pie-
ture at first, said the painter, but
I knew you'd notice the likeness as
soon as I added those ears.

REMARKABLE DISCOVERY.
The homoeopathic principle of
"like cures like" is reported to have
had an extraordinary demonstration
et Chicago. An electrician there is
said to have shown in the presence
et- several. physicians that a cat
killed by an electric shock could be
restored to life in a few minutes by
the application of an alternating
current of lower power. He claims
that a human being killed by elec-
tricity could be restored in the
same way if the application is made
within a few minutes,

CROPS OF ME PROVINCE.
RAVAGES OF THE HESSIAN
FLY WERE SERIOUS.
Dreiught and Heat Early ib July
Caused Premature Rip-
ening.
The annual August statement re-
garding the crops of the Province
, lies just been prepared by.the Outer-
lo Department of Agriculture, based
an the reports of Its stall of regular
correspondents. The returns deal
with condition._ up to August 1st.
FALL WHEAT.
Returns just to hand show that the
injury done by the Hessian fly-in the
Lake Erie group of counties has been
so great that in many instances the
yield of fall wheat per acre is as low
as only eve bushels per acre, al--
though in the same localities large
yields y er acre have also been return-
ed. The fly has done comparatively
little damage in the Georgian Bay
counties, in Bruce, and in the central
and eastern portions-of the yrovince.
There has been more or less rust com-
plained of, the hot, -damp weather
prevailing at times being favorable
for its development. In the reports
as to the quality of the grain fre-
quent mention is made of the kernel
being shrunken, the intense heat of
the early part of July, it is averred,
causing premature ripening. Har-
vesting took place rather earlier than
usual. While a number of correspon-
dents speak of the crop being cut and
housed in excellent condition, others
complain that the rains prevailing at
the latter part of harvesting together
with the great heat, caused some of
the grain to sr rout in the shtick.
Very little threshing had been done
as correspondents wrote, but it is ex-
pected that returns will range from
5 to 40 bushels, per acre. Nearly 7
per cent. of the original area sown
was plowed up.
SPRING WHEAT. -
This crop is grown chiefly in the
eastern half of the province, corres-
pondents in the western counties hav-
ing comparatively little to say about
it. The yield is a variable one, al-
though a large number of correspon-
dents speak of good returns. The
crop, like fall wheat, suffered donsid-
erably from rust, and from an insect
which did a good deal of injury by
cutting the stalk at the joint. Some
also complained of the Hessian fly.
Only a few had cut their spring
wheat as correspondents wrote, but
the bulk of the standing crop was
then reported to be in fair condi-
tion.
BARLEY, OATS AND RYE.
Barley.—As in the case of other
cereals, correspondents are not near-
ly agreed regarding the yield and
quality of barley; although it is like-
ly that it will be a better crop rela-
tively than either spring or fall
wheat. It has suffered but little
from insect pests, and while some
correspondents report the grain as
discolored by rains during -harvest-
ing, others Claim that the color is
good, although the berry is rather
small in size.
Oats— This crop has also suffered
from the abnormal heat of July,
Which hastened rif ening, and in
many cases prevented the heads from
filling out thoroughly. Correspon-
dents in Eastern Ontario speak of
the crop as having ripened vere un-
-evenly, which delayed harvesting in
some instances. Only a few had cut
oats up to the first week of August.
The straw in many cases reported is
not as long as usual.
Rye—Comparatively little rye is
raised for the grain in this province,
the crop being used largely for soil-
ing and other purposes. Where al-
lowed to mature it has turned out
well.
PEAS, BEANS AND CLOVER.
Peas.—The reportis regarding peas
vary considerably, except on the one
point, that the crop was more or
less injured by the "weevil" or bug,
although where grass peas were sown
they escaped attack. Yields will
range from 10 to '8O bushels-per. acre.
Deans—Outside the County of Rent
beans are not largely grown as a
field crop. 'As correspondents wrote,
the beans were in good condition ow-
ing to timely rains. -
Hay" and clover—This is without
doubt the most successful crop of
the season, both as to quantity and
quality. The average yield for the
province will be much above the av-
erage, particularly in the St. Law-
rence and Ottawa counties.- Clover
did better than timothy, and the se-
cond crop is looking well. Cutting
extended from the last week of June
to the third week of July.
CORN AND TOBACCO,
Corn.—Despite the fact that plant-
ing was delayed in many quarters
owing to wet weather then prevail-
ing, the crop has made good headway
and taken as a whole gives promise
of doing well snould early frosts not
appear. .
Tobacco.—This crop is confined
chiefly to Essex, Kent, and Prescott,
and even in those counties it is not
grown to a large extent. Some cor-
reepondents speak of the plant as do-
ing well, but others complain ,of
"worms" as being very bad, and one
return declares that a considerable
portion of the crop is "frenching."
Much of the tobacco was ,planted ra-
ther late this year, owing to the
rain.
THE ROOT CROPS. -
Potatoes—Judging by the number
of correspondents who report "one
the worst years yet for potato
bugs,- the beetle must have done a
lot of injury, This, coupled with the
dry weather prevailing during the
previous month or more, has told
greatly against the chances of the
crop. It is pointed out, however,
that recent rains have greatly im-
proved tho outlook for the crop.
Roots.—Reports concerning root
crops vary considerably. It is said
by some that turnips are almost a
complete failure,, while others claim
that the crop is in a most promising
condition. The non-germination of
the seed and the attacks of the fly
a given as the most serious causes
of the loss. Mangels have done bet-
ter than turnips. Carrots are said
`,0 be doing well, and 'the same may
be said of sugar beets. As corre-
spondents. wrote, the root crops were
picking up wonderfully in appear-
ance.
FRUIT UNSATISFACTORY
Fruit—Reports regarding apples
are far from satisfactory.. Although
there was plenty of bloom in many
localities during spring, much of the
fruit did not set, and later on most
of the apples fell' off before matur-
ing. There is not likely to be half
an average yield.. Several -corre-
spondents point out, however, that
the Spy is doing better than any
other of the winter varieties: . Pears
may be ranked as fair in quality,
and about an average in yield.
Peaches will be a. fair crop in the
Western Lake Erie section, but will
hardly do go well in the Niagara dis-
trict. Plums range in yield from an
average to failure, according to lo-
cality and care. The corculio has
been very active, and some of the
crop has rotted before ripening. Cher-
ries have also suffered from rotting
on the tree, and complaints of black
knot are also made, but in some of
Use Western counties this fruit did
very well. Grapes promise a good
yield. Small fruits as a. class did
did well.
- GRAZING PROSPECTS.
Pastures and Live Stock.—Pastures
were in prime condition in'the early
part of this season, but fell off about
the second week in July, when the
warm weather began to dry up the
grass. However, heavy rains were
falling, as correspondents wrote, and
the prospects were that pastures
Would soon pick up again. Prices
for both cheese and butter have been
most encouraging to dairymen and
the bulk of correspondents are cheer-
ful as to the outlook for fall and
winter supplies.
Dees and Honey.—Little or no dis-
ease has been reported among bees.
There has been plenty of swarming
end stocks have been strong and ac-
tive. The average yield, however,
will not go over 50 pounds per hive.
COMPARATIVE ACREAGES. •
Acreages and Yields.—The follow-
ing are the crop estimates for 1901,
as judged by appearances on the 1st
August. The acreages are final, but

and clover) will be revised from ac-
tual threshing results in November:—

NOVEL GLASS BLOWING.
Compressed Air Instead of Human
Breath.
Up to the present time the art of
blowing glassware by means of com-
pressed air has been limited to bot-
tles and similar articles of small
size, but a process is being exploit-
ed in Germany, the invention . of
Paul Sievert, of Dresden, , by, which
bath-tubs and other largo tanks -can
be made with the -greatest ease. ,
This process of blowing such articles
originated in Pittsburg, Penn., just
twenty years ago, but it has remain-
ed for a foreigner to perfect it, and
Mr. Sievert says that there is al-
most no limit to the size of the ar-
ticles which can be made by his pro-
cess. He has already made a number
of bath-tubs, which are said to have
many advantage over those of me-
tal and porcelain, the principal ono
being the economy of the glass. The
tube is five feet six inches long, and
about- two feet wide, and consists of
one piece of solid glass about two
inches and a half in thickness. This
thing was made complete in about
five minutes. The other thingi
shown are made for special manu-
facturing purposes, and Mr. Sievert
thinks that he will soon be able to
supply all the tanks and vats used
in the various arts and industries
for whith clay, wood, cement, and
metal are now used, notably by
brewers, distillers, fruit preservers,
and sugar refiners,

Gossip About Some of the World's
Great People. -
Among the present-day Highland
chiefs few are able to speak Gaelic,
one notable exception being the Duke
of Athol), who, in addition to being
able to converse in the classic Ian-
guage, is doing his best to encourage
its extensive use. Gaelic classes
were, under his influence, held all last
winter at Blair Athol], his ancestral
home, and the examination of the
pupils showed good results.
When King Edward, as Prince of
Wales, visited India, he received
among other presents a curious clock
which was said to have been made by
a Hindu priest of extraordinary sanc-
tity. After the timepiece had been
brought to London it stopped run
ning, and until recently lay quies-
cent in Marlborough House. On be-
ing sent to an expert to be put in
working order it was found to have
ma the mainspring the name of a
London firm of curio-makers.
The house in which Sir. Chamber-
lain was born sixty-five years ago
still stands, and not far from it, in
a quiet grove at Camberwell, is the
house in which he learned to spell
and write his name. Close to them
both lives the old lady who has still
a vivid memory of the Monday morn-
ing when Joseph Chamberlain first
went to school. For a year the
moulding of Mr. Chamberlain's mind
was in the care of this' lady, on
whom Mr. Chamberlain more than
once called since he became afamous

The Grand Old Lady of the British
Peerage is the Dowager-Duchess of
Abercorn, who has just entered on
her ninetieth year. She is a daugh-
ter 'of the sixth Duke of Bedford,
head of the great Whig house of Rus-
sel. Queen Victoria was fond of say-
ing that the venerable Duchess put
Her Majesty's own record quite in
the shade, 'for she was the mother of
seven sons and seven daughters. At
one time She had sixty-three grand-
children living, and as for her great-
grandchildren, they are past count-
ing. Twenty-two of her descendants
have been in the present war.
Rome has the distinction of pos-

herself among the advocates, as she
does not desire to champion the
"new- woman," but to devote her-
self to the philosophy of law. After
taking her degree she addressed a
commission of the University of
Rome for three hours. She now lec-
tures at the University together with
her father and brother. Signorina
Labriola is a well-known writer on

PLANTS CAN SEE.
There is not the least doubt that
we have yet a great deal to learn
respecting plant life. Ooe scientist
asserts that plants have souls, be-
cause the protoplasm is the same as
that in animals; and one of the lat-
est theories is that plants can see.
Certain plants stretch themselves
out in search of supp,ort and food in
a Way that makes the ordinary ob-
server believe that they can see, and
the experience of a correspondent in
connection with a convolvulus lends
color to this sight theory. He was
seated at his back door, and put his
foot against a pillar round which a
convolvulus was twined; the tendrils,
to his surprise, began to move, and
in half-an-hour were beginning to
curl round his foot. He resolved to
