The store keepers have all taken in - v rices of their stock. Take a hint from this and do the same; find the leaks stop them as soon as possible and in- crease your farm profits. Good tools pay. With good tools and a little repair shop on the farm. you can do all the repairing that you will have to do, and keep your implements in good shape at all times. A small hand forge is often very handy on the farm. In many cases it will pay for itself the first year. Once the method of using it is learned. the trips to the blacksmith will be less fre- quent during the very busy summer season. Harrows, disks and cultivators should all be Looked over carefully. Dull harrows are very inefficient tools to use, The blades of the disk should be sharpened and the bearings should not be neglected. Renew them when necessary. Dull shovels on cultivators cannot be expected to do efficient work Children Cry FOR FLETCHER'S CASTQRSA Since 1906 there has been a continued decrease in the deaths according to population in Ontario, until in 1913 the percentage was only 8 deaths in 11,000 population.

HERE FOR YOUR 1 HE WINGHAM TIMES THE FIRST TROUSERS. They Led to Edicts Against 'Their Use In Some German States. The latest instance of a 11 uropean country enacting laws coucerniug dress occurredat the time of the Preach revolution, when some rulers of Ger- man states forbade their subjects to I wear trousers, these being held to indi- • cate revolutionary opinious. The elec. tor of Hesse -Cassel, besides prohibiting the obnoxious garments, had the eon I victs employed on road sweeping dress- ed in trousers so us to inspire disgust for sans-culotte fashions. The -term "sans-culotte" means "with- out breeches," and during the French revolution the "sans-culottes," who de- nounced every one who wore breeches, finally went beyond their opponents and wore twice as much cloth around their legs -in a word, adopted the mod- ern trousers and made them the badge of a party: Napoleon wore trousers on state oc- casions after he bad been crowned emperor. His army was the first that adopted trousers, and they kept prog- ress, step by step, with the march of the French legions. The Duke of Wellington would insist on wearing pantaloons -or trousers, as they are now called -when he attended certain social functions, although he was al- most alone in so doing. This was about the year 1814, but by 1830 trous- ers were worn by almost everybody. A Literary Waiter. James Stephens, a literary Irishman, author of a number of novels1, sketches and poems, is somewhat noted for his absentmindedness. In Paris he wrote his imaginative verses in the corners of cafes and never noticed which of these had been the environment of his muse. Once he left the manuscript of "The Demigods" in one of them, but could not remember where, Days aft- er, wandering into the Cafe Closerie des Liles, a waiter handed him the lost sheets. A. five franc piece was• offered. The waiter with much dignity refused the reward. "I am," he said, "a man of letters myself when I have an hour to spare, and I know what it is to lose the fruits of one's brains." No Vowels In It. Many places have curious names, but apparently there is only one place which has a name without any vow- els. That place is the little hamlet of Ws, near Paris. Ws being an unpro- nounceable name, the inhabitants of the hamlet have transformed it into "D'Us," but this change has not been sanctioned legally, and on all the ofii- cial records the name Ws still appears. The hamlet has only about a hundred inhabitants, and its sole attractions are the Chateau d'Osny, which has been for many years in the possession of Edmond About's family, and the Cha- teau de Vigny, which is one of the very best specimens of the renaissance style of architecture Natural Protection. ' It has been pointed out that to some ground animals nature's color scheme for concealment furnishes almost com- plete protection. The quail crouching on the ground looks like a bunch of dried leaves. Many snakes and fishes take the precise color of surrounding sand and water. A mackerel from Novels above looks like a fleeting ripple, while \Vriting to fish enemies beneath his white belly will not show against the higher col- s e� ors of sky and water. The wonderful- ly beautiful changes of dolphins and , chameleons were not evolved to please the eye, but to protect their lives, 4 Paper, E 6 Ink,Playing Cards Cards, Etc.

The fair lady at the man's side j drew away with a movement that seemed almost prudish. Her breath came and went in little explosive jerks. She tried to speak, but no sound came from her lips. She tried once more, and then, with sweet 'tremulousness, she gave her answer. "I will marry you if you get papa's consent," she said. "I never marry without that.' Nicely Settled. Lady -What will you charge me for the use of a horse and buggy for a few hours? Liveryman -It will cost you $2 for the first hour and $1 for each addi- tional hour. Lady -Well, I'll use it for two additional hours. I've got some shopping to do and will not require it for the first hour. Topaz. The word topaz comes from the Greek verb signifying to guess. The jewel was brought from the east and was re- ported to have come from an island, and inen then guessed at the location of the isle which produced such beauti- ful gems. Origin of Comets. Professor Elis Stromgren, director of the Copenhagen observatory, has carried out, with the aid of J. l3raae, an investigation to determine whether comets come originally from interstel- lar space, as has been commonly sup- posed, or originate within the solar sys- tem. Ilis method of research involves the backward computation of planetary perturbations for eight comets. The conclusion reached is that all°comets heretofore observed have originated Within the selar system. An Unfortunate Accident.

F. 1', Pardee, M.P, for West Lamb ton: It had become the fashion in this country to attempt to build up a sort of pseudo -aristocracy. Upon every vailable occasion, when we take up the papers,. we see a long list of titals. You positive- ly stumble upon these knights in the streets. I met one of them the other day and I had forgotten for the tirr.e that an honor had been confered upon him. Presently he came around to it a to al te: preening himself very consider- ably he said: "Oh yes, but you know, Fred , the woemen want it" Tt.at may be all very well, it may be true, but 1 have an idea in the back of my head that the women are put up to it by the men Speaking in all seriousness, I jotted down a few moments ago such world- wide names as William Edward Glad- stone , John Bright, Richard Cobden, Herbert H. Asquith, Loyd George Ed- ward Blake, George Brown, Alexander Mackenzie. Do you want better men than these? Would Blake, Brown, or Mackenzie have been greater Canadians had they had prefixes and half the let- ters in the alphabet after their names? They stood upon their merits as those merits were reconized by the Canadian people. ,,For a young, democratic country, we have had enough titles and that a man in Canada should be reconized for one thing only- the merit that there is in him and the good that he does to his fellow -men. Provided he is a Canadian gentleman it is a good enough title for anybody. $100 Reward, $100 The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all stages, and that is Catarrh, Hall's Catarrh Cure is the only positive care now known to the medical fraternity.

In a hotel lounge one day a man at- tacked the Fenians and Home Rulers bitterly, and he wound up by shouting: "Show me an Irishman, and I'll show you a coward !" While the crowd was applauding this sentiment, O'Donovan Rossa got up slowly from his rocking chair and walked up to the speaker. "What did you say, friend?" he asked. The orator started, he bit his lip, then he repeated in low, tremulons tones: "I said show me an irishmnn, and 1'11 show you a coward." "I'm an Irishman!" shouted O'Dono- van Rossa fiercely. "And I'm a coward," said theother man, and turned and dashed out of the door. IL Da not suffer another day with Itching Bleed- ing, or Protrud- ing Piles. No surgical oper- ation required.

Canada is to raise at once, at the re„ quest of the War Office, a woodsmen's battalion, for service in Creat Britain, companies to be drawn from the chief lumbering regions of the Dominion. The late J. B. Smallman of London bequeathed $200,000 to Western Univer- sity, and large sums to other institutions. A certain family name appeared so often in the records of Ohio prisons, almshouses, hospitals and corrective institutions that an investigation fol- lowed. The polluted human streams were traced back four generations to the marriage of a feeble-minded couple. Of the 261 descendents whose lives it was possible to study, 74 have been criminals, 55 are feeble-minded, 20 are drunkards, and many others are inmates of almshouses or other insti tutions. Few among them all have a degree of mental power above that of a normal child of ten years. Suc h a history gives n substantial basis for regulating the marriage of the feeble- minded and the criminal. Children Cry FOR FLETCHER'S CAS1"O RPA A hong Series of Events Can. Crowded Into a Few Seconds.. It is more than likely that the great majority of dreams belong to the few moments when we are falling off to sleep stud the equally brief time we false to wake up. In fact, nothing Is more fully established than the fact :hat an apparently tong dream can un- fold itself in an infinitesimal space of time, Alfred Maury relates how he bad a long aucl vivid dream of the reign of terror in 'France, which Included his trial before the revolutionary tribunal and his execution, He actually felt the guillotine" fall. Yet that dream trout beginning to end was actually caused by the fall of a curtain rod which struck him ou the neck and woke him up. The whole lengthy dream lusted really a couple of sec- onds. A well known writer in London was sitting up late writing something he much wished to finish. Suddenly some one came into the room and announc- ed ,that he was called to go to -Man- chester. He went out and packed his bag and went to that city, where . he stayed several days and saw innumera- ble people. He returned in due course and transacted a lot of business in town and actually contracted for and started a new book. Yet when be woke with a start and found it was all a dream the inlr of the last word he had written was as fresh and needed the blotting paper as much as if it bad only just been writ- ten. He could not have dozed longer than ten seconds. 15* In a Maori Wooing House. Among the Maoris sometimes in the whore matoro (the wooing house), a building in which the young of both sexes assembled for play, songs, dances, etc., there would be at stated times a meeting. When the tires burn- ed low a girl would stand up in the dark and say: "1 love So-and-so. 1 want him for my husband." !f be coughed (sign of assent) or said "Yes" it was well; if only dead silence she covered her head with her robe and was ashamed. This was not often, as she generally had managed to ascer- tain, either by her own inquiry or by sending a girl friend, if the proposal was acceptable. Un the other band, sometimes a mother would attend and say, "I want So-and-so for my son." If not acceptable there was generally mocking, and she was told to let the young people have their house (the wooing house) to themselves. His Master Stroke. "George Ferguson," said his 'wife, looking with crushing scorn at the gaudy rug he had bought at a special sale, "I wonder if ever in your life you knew a bargain when you saw its" The case was critical, Mr. Ferguson saw that something bold and decisive must be done, and his mind worked quickly. •"vlfif9, yes.
