Pranceline rose in the dawning graY, And her heart would dance though she knelt to pray, For her man Michel had holiday, Fighting for France. She offered her: prayer• by the cradle' side, And with baby palms folded in hers she cried;• "If I have but one prayer, dear, cru- cified Christ-save`France! "But if I have two, then, by Mary's grace, Carry zne safe to the meeting -place, Let me look once again on my dear love's face, Save Trim for F ranee!" She crooned to her boy: "Oh, how glad he'll be, Little three -months -old, to set eyes on thee! For, `Rather than gold, would I give,' wrote he, A son to France.'

She cane to the town,of the nameless name, To the marching troops in the street she came, • And she held high her boy like a taper flame. Burning for France Fresh from the trenches arid gray with grime, Silent they march like a pantomime; "But what need of music? My heart beats time • — ' Vive la France!" His regiment comes. Oh, then, where is he? - "There' is dust in my eyes,: -for I can- not see, • — Is that my Michel to the right of thee, Soldier of Prance?" Thenout of the ranks a comrade: fell— "Yesterday—'twas a splinter of shell— And he whispered thy name, did thy poor Michel, Dying for Franee." The tread of the troops on the pave- ment throbbed Like a woman's heart of its last joy robbed; As she lifted her boy to the flag, and sobbed: "Vive la France!" - Charlotte Hohnes Crawford. 1918 BEE COLONIES. Cause of the Heavy Loss Experience During the Past Winter. •j The very heavy loss of colonies o bees this winter has been due almos entirely to insufficient food and insuf ficient protection. It is theeffect o too, little or no packing that I want t discuss in this article. Every bee keeper is feeling his.;loss keenly a this time and so I now want to mak the statement that most of the losse which were sustained up to the firs of March were a', •irect result of in sufficient protection. There is n doubt about having had a very sever winter. But it is also true that soin bee -keepers have wintered their bee outdoors with very little loss whil others in similar situations have los from twenty-five to one hundred pe cent. of their colonies. This fact i very significant. The bee -keeper wh packed thoroughly is the one who ha not sustained unusual losses. Bees generate heat through the consump- tion of food and by muscular activity If bees«are not given adequate pro- tection, then, they must- consume im- mense quantities of honey in order to keep up the high temperature, For that that reason many colonies have starv- ed to death. Colonies that had enough honey to carry them through, if. pro- perly protected, have starved because they were not protected, and therefore had to consume honey that they ought not to have been compelled to use un- til late in the spring. The heating of an unprotected beehive in winter works out about like trying to heat a house with all the doors and windows open. Bee -keepers must realize that bees to be normal in winter must never cool to less than fifty-seven de- grees in temperature. If their tem- perature falls to forty-five degrees they become numb and unless they warm up very soon they die. If the bees are to maintain a temperature of not less than fifty-seven degrees' in zero weather, it stands to reason that something more than an inch board must separate them from the cold out- side. If the bee -keepers will ''learn the lesson that they ought to learn from their iosses`this winter, then the loss may be turned into profit in the future. It sounds well to our ears' to console ourselves with the statement that the cold weather was to blame this winter, but if we are to profit from the loss, letus look the facts squarely in the face and admit that we, as bee -keepers, are to blame. a f' t de corps which is the keynote of the whole Canadian Pacific System. .The engineer" does not think of his loco- motive merely as a machine. It is something almost human to.him. "She's a good engine," you her one call to a passing conductor, "but full. of hard luck:" It takes au engineer months to master the peculiarities of a new locomotive, and for that reason he is not much in love with any pool- ing., system, preferring to have one engine at any rate "assigned" to him —an engine that he can almost call his own. Were he to know. "that' his favorite engine would eventually bear his own name, surely he would take greater pride than ever in work well done. b -•-,0.-.r p-.._O-_q.-meq.-_p.._Q.-_q..-.<p_.,..q _.,per.• PAIN?

It is called freezone, and can now be obtained in tiny bot- tles as here shown at very little cost from any drug store. Just ask for freezone, Apply a drop or two direotly upon a tender corn or callus and instantly the soreness disappears, Shortly you ;will find the corn or callils so loose that you can lift it off, root and all, ivitii the fi ngers. i'Vot a twinge of pain, soreness or irritation; not even. the slightest smarting, either when applying freezone or afterwards. This drug doesn't eat up the corn or callus, but shrivels them so they loosen and conte right out. It is no humbug! It works like a charm. For a few cents you can get rid of every hard corn, soft cornor corn be- tween' the toes, as well as painful calluses on bottom of your feet. It neves' disappoints and never burns, bites or inflames. If your druggist hasn't any freezone yet, tell him to get a little bottle for you from his wholesale house. HEROES OF THE ROAD In order to give some recognition to Men who have done so much to build up its fine record' of efficiency, the Canadian Pacific has decided on a new policy which should attract wide in- terest. I•Iitherto on`thi's continent railway locomotives have been identi- fied by numbers only—a practise which has prevailed elsewhere except, on certain English railways. .For the future it has been decided to name certain of the Canadian Pacific loco-; motives after the engineers, who by meritorious conduct or by acts of special .bravery have, in the opinion. of the management, earned • the right to special distinction. Some of these names may even be taken from the 92 engineers who are on the pension list, whose names breathe of long, meritorious, faithful and in some cases markedly dis- tinguished service. Over two thousand locomotives run in the Canadian Pacific service, with aver two thousand engineers. It is not the intention to name every loco- motive at once, but only those in pas- senger service, and to keep each name as a privilege 1, P. Il P and g reward. The a id e is oiie which should appeal to every man who, knows the value of ;person- ality in good railroading. 'It appeals to the C.P.R. because it will make for efficiency and encourage that' esprit f 0 t e s t 0 e e s e t r s 0 s The irritating Smell of oil lamps can be mitigated in a great degree by rubbing the reservoir every day 'with a rag moistened with tUrpeiittnc, fol- lowed, with a brish polishing with a soft dry cloth, Why, O Why? The United States Congressional ip'arty brought back many stories 'rem the fighting fronts in France. "At a camp for German prisoners behind the British line's," said'a'mem- ber of the party in Washington, "a detail was called out for some ditch digging. None of the British guards could speak German and none of the Germans seemed to be able to under- stand a word of, English. "Under the . circumstances it was difficult to give orders, and the "Tom nfies' had a terrible time showing the prisoners what they wanted done. For this reason they drove the dig- gers a little harder, perhaps, than the union rules allow. "Finally, one big German, his face aglow with perspiration, .dropped his shovel, straightened up painfully and said in a tone^of genuine disgust: " `Ach i Why in h—! did I ever leave Baltimore!'

Ont sliso iLLAennO1ra GREAT MEN'S SIGNATURES. Famous People Are Sometimes Vic • - 'tints of .Autograph Fiends. When autograph fiends get busy they stick at nothing. The late Lord Kitchener would never willingly suc- cumb to the autograph hunter. Acer- tairr young lady, well known in'soeiety however, once got the better of him, in spite ot himself. She made a goods round bet with her fiance that she would, wheedle it out of him by some means or other. She heard some friends discussing a charitable scheme that the great sol- dier was interested in, and she sent hint a subscription; but, wily girl, well within the amount of her bet with her lover. A grateful note of thanks was sent by Kitchener's secretary; but, of course, the cheque was endorsed by the great man himself, and returned to her through her bank passbook. Kitchener had a way entirely his own. when persistently badgered by auto- graph collectors. To one he said: "Go awe.y, young, man, and make your;own signature i worth something." Carlyle and Lord Tennyson were both tricked, by the same fiend.' The poet one;day received an eloquent let- ter asking his permission that. a ship just about to be launched might be named after him. Tennyson wrote back readily • granting the favor. A c day or two later he told the incident to `Carlyle, who exclaimed: "The same man must have tricked us both.
