There' is a large lower and upper verandah across the front, supported by a portico of four pillars, and from the.eentre of the lower verandah one enters 'through a vestibule into the main rotunda, in the eentre of which and opposite the door, in. a spacious alcove, is a large brick fireplace. Just to the left of the entranee the manager's room, and office is situated, while immediately to the left is the library and reading room: Back of the library, separated from the rotunda by, pillars, there is a large billiard room and a games room. An open writing room is also provided at .the back of the lentunda betweeu the alcove and games room.. To the left of the rotunda, between two Columns, one enters the dining room or cafeteria, from which, ' Ethrough awing doors, access to the kitchen is obtained. The main stairs are situated at the back of the plain hall between the kitchen and an alcove, ewhere there is also a street entrance to the building. 'cA simple treatment_ of• stucco beams with a plain 'cornice mould and plaster columns is used throughout the main floor. The floor is finished with alk, while partitions and trim are of Georgia pine stained and varnished. ,. On the second floor there are 18 bedrooms, a sick ,bay, large toilet and bathroom and linen closets, and from the corridors there are exits to four baIeoaies, which may be used as sleeping porches, and would prove useful in case of ire. On the third floor there aro also 18 single rooms, a double eeepm,, large toilet mei linen closets and access to balconies from the corridor. _e Provision has also been made fora two bowling alleys, which will be put in later. } + Girls -Who Make Mischief. "1 can't make hut what I've done toe offend Jim Dawson," mgr, chum Doris confided to me one day. "He seemed so interested, and now I really think he goes out of his way to avoid me." We are both in the same office, and Jam is one of the nicest -looking men there, and I had hoped that the inter- est he evinced for Doris might one day develop into something more seri- ous. "What about Mabel?" I suggested. hknow you will never listen to me n I try to tell you she•s not a true friend, but I think you'll find that she's at the root of the trouble." And what I said turned out to be true. ,, I found out afterwards that Mabel', who was very keen on Jim her- self, had, with sugar-coated cattiness, chaffed him about Doris, and the ef- fect on .Jim, who was,only beginning to be attracted, had been to frighten him off. I wonder Tiow many romances are spoilt in the early stages because girls of one's acquaintance, under the guise of:,light-hearted banter, are • deliber- ately spiteful, and tease a man out of his fondness for another girl by mak- ing him feel awkward and -shy? There are so many ways in .which a- girl can easily make mischief if She wishes to. / She may put into her friend's mouth words Doris would never have dream- ed- of . saying. Silly little intimate. things that have been told her by an over -confiding Doris and exaggerated tenfold. She may say something in the most subtly innocent way possible which conveys to him the idea that the girl in wham he is interested has been bragging about his .attentions.She may hint that she is already "booked," or may leave the impression in his mind that he is being made fun of. There is nothing the average man ha5ces marc than being laughed, at, and. `the natural effect of this is to make him .cool off. - .And .there is nothing annoys the girl who is beginning to fall in love with someone more than to feel that her every attitude is being watched. She feels self-conscious and shy, and the result of :being "chipped" is that she 'will be cold and frigid in her manner, and.a misunderstanding may arrive which will never be cleared up. It is not only girl friends who make mischief..In many, many cases sisters are, behind a broken romance,. It le *so easy for a sister to find the weak- est spot in a girl's armour,, and if she doesn't approve of • her, use her knowl- edge foie all she is 'worth, It she is really out to end. things, e'he„Gan, with the help of a mother and fetV',rerations snake things so un- pleasant that,' in spite of a ,!awning fondness for the man; the girl is only too ,glad to see the last ‘of : him and his; people: So, girls, don't be catty! You may -try,.te appease your .conscience with. eicuse that you were only joking, never really meant, anything, but you know quite well that you did, Even /iif you ar'ehjealous, try to rc- n'leiill5ier that by''d.eliberately interfer-• in 1;; ti flding romance and sepia sting the lovers by "chaff," either I spiteful or otherwise, your are taking a great responsibility on yourself. And there is the law of retribution to reckon with. One day you may be the! victim of "fun" just as innocently meant asY our own: A Family Scrapbook. • We are a large family, and we have had good tunes together, writes a subscriber, but it will not be long now until we separate; so we are mak- ing a scrapbook to help, us remember what our parents have told us about the family and what' we want to keep fresh inmind of our own days in the old home. We are usinga spring cover and Ioose leaves, so that at any time any one of us can take out cer- tain pages without interfering with the important part, which we intend to keep together. - In.the front are the genealogy and copies of our grandfathers' and grand- mothees' and great-grandfathers' and great-grandrnothers' pictures. Then there is a brief, typewritten history of the few family relics—grand- father's hunting • knife -and Great - Aunt Editha!s beads, and, • the rest.' Next come the pictures of father and mother, and the printed accounts- of their wedding and of other' important I events in their lives. Then come our own pages, on which all of our -photo- graphs are kept, eo that here arid' there are groups of snapshots of each of us: John when he,was a curly - headed baby, and Joseph riding the cultivator, and Clarkson in his new uniform. There are our graduating programmes, and the podi ms we wrote in college—and laugh over nowt There arse snapshots of the house and the well and the road, and of some- Cit the trees we loved best; and there are Blackie, the horse`we rode,,'and Villa, our dog. It will be'a very interesting book to look at years from:nowf and I think, too, that it -help us to keep up the traditions and the spirit of our old home. i .:t,til'tgsdri: E.;;;i'•' iJ.,ioi•llari: alrn,"rF; fit, "t411! .iterfi •+.:1 , Insects on House PIants. Plants grown in the house in win- ter do not have the vigor.; they .have in the summer or as the days get longer in the early springy ;and they are much more subject to , insect at- tacks, or rather they, are much- easier injured by them. Insects . are always present in _lost collections and it is the constant attention given their plants by some growers that keeps them -healthy, rather than the lack of insects. They keep the insects reduc- ed to the "minimum by preventive measures. • .. .. , Hot soapsuds is the handiest insec- ticide which' most of 'us have :to -work with, and if we :will 'give' the' plants that permit • i;t a ggopd washing every wash day we will not be bothered much by any: of the common ;rests. As this is a busy day many will ,prefer to,make •a suds jnet for the -purpose, and for such I would suggest the use of whale oil soap, Or:fir tree oil seep, a.s they heve special value as insecti cities.. Fir tree oil,}it" the sante qual- ities, and is eotnewh,•rt easier to handle than the goal,; as it mixes with water by the simple proc4s5 0 paimng 1 into the vessel. These will rid plants of aphis, red spider, scale, and any other insect that will be likely to. at tack house plants, For scale or mealy bug •some extra care is needed in ap- plying , it .to slake it penetrate the covering .that protects the real insects. A stiff brush works *ell here. Begonias are not much bothered by insects and in a dry atmosphere they will not stand having their leaves wet. Fer keeping them clean a soft camel ,hair, brush . is best. Mealy bug does attack, them, and then they must be treated with the fir tree oil suds, but do;;it,carefully, and then rinse the leaves with• clear water and be care- ful to get all surplus water sponged off. If thee dried in a still, cool place it will be best for them. I have washed my begonias ever and -over without' trouble, but I have seen and had the leaves badly burned when not careful enough about it. When scale gets a start on ferns or palms it is hard to get rid of, es- pecially on the ferns, as every scale must be dislodged for positive effects. Still keeping it up even without much” brushing will finally get them all. Some may be secure each timer but at some time they will be so that the oil will penetrate to them. Red! •spider is probably the most de- structive house insect, as•it is eo min- ute it is never noticed until the plants are so bardly infested that they are almost past saving. When the leaves begin to look rusty and ;yellow, and to drop, then they have -about finished the•plant. Because of this it is best to give the plants a thorough clean- ing every week or two. Cards Worth Keeping. Are many people preserving the 'Christmas greetings which they re- ceivedfrom the front in 1914.18? They are certainly worthkeeping for his: torical, no less than personal, -reasons. 1 1914 there bores; and many people in this noun- 'try had delivered to them finely- carved lids of such .receptacles. Coins 'were 'subsequently used to the same :end by some of our soldiers, and many a bit of aluminum was beaten out and invade to bear a Christmas greeting to 'the folk at home. In some units the men combined and produced an annual, on the front of which was printed the old, old wish. One was the Winnipeg Rifles, which, for at••least two years in succession, brought- out the "Trench Echo:" • Another device was to send home, the menu of • the Christmas dinner: Usually; though' designed on the spot, it was printed in England,. and only needed a few words scribbled an it to make an interesting "card." In 1918, at Steenbecque, the 2-1.5th Transport Section, ILA.S.C., did an eight -page menu' which thus served a double pur- pose. When, too, the war -seemed to have settled down into a pernianent thing, whole divisions went in for 1 develop- ment of . that• great Army institution, the regimental= Christmas card, Seine of the dieleitehal greetings were real works 'of att.

A. boy stretched`' himself • on he, banks of a secluded pond: Picking up a pebble he threw It Ir to the water. As it•bi}olke the snootli, still surface, little rings began to fora,!. They grew Into ever -widening circles, chasing' each other across the, pond, eventually disappearing, as it seemed, into the"Meese bank. They continued to form and to chase each other untie all _the energy - created by the stone died. away. • The . incident did not arouse more than idle interest in the mind of the boy, yet it illustrated a scientific,prin4 cipie which may revolutionize com- merce in the near future. When concussions . occur in theair, however shall they may bo, little waves run Ont front the centre of disc turbance and chase each other though space, never halting until checked by some more potent force. Human in- ventiveness has discovered how to harness this mysterious force, We call it, for brevity's sake, wireless: We have lieen able to send wireless telegrams for some years, and also• wireless telephone messages over short distances, but the sending ofa. verbal message across the ocean is another proposition. A message has/ been sent in this way from Canada to Ireland. Imagine what it means. It means that when the system is perfected it will be pos- sible to carry on a conversation across the ocean without the use of wires or any other visible agency. e • Now that the • method of utilizing this force has been discovered, one wonders why it was never found out before. It 18 all so simple. The voice vibrates a metal dise which disturbs the atmosphere, or something that is in the atmosphere, and little waves roll outwards, like the little waves on the surface' of the pond -when the stone falls .upon it. These waves, or impulses, go away with lightning speed, and their=s - age is picked up by the aerials, Met as were stretched high above the " buildings of" wireless stations durin the war. Conversations in the Clouds The public have a very faint idea -of the marvels which wirelosa telephony achievedinthegreatr dor war. In the g early, stages of the ,big aerial fights, the Germans., were puzzled and not a little' alarmed by the evidence which cirdumstances provided that the..indi viduals composing our squadrons were able to communicate with each other. with comparative ease, even in the blackness of the darkest night. As a matter of fact, they were speaking to each other by wireless telephony.. Each pilot wore a leather cap or hood, on the ear -flaps of which wore telephone receivers arranged to' cut out extraneous sounds. ,There was no mouthpiece, but a collar fitted closely to the neck. This collar contained the transmitter. The spoken sounds were transmitted from tho throat of the speaker instead of the mouth, said the other pilot received the _message with- out the accompanying noise of the en- gines, . M. Abraham and General Ferree, who have introduced an improvement in wireless telephony which proved, valuable to the French aviation ser- vice during 'the war, predict that, be- fore long wireless conversations be- tween France and the United States will be an everyday occurrence. So far the typewriter has not been coupled with the telephone wire, but, itmay be soon, for' experiments have already proved that the idea is a prac- tical one. There appears to be no reason why, In the near. ,future, a speech made on the other`side of the Atlantic should not be typed In , an. Ottawa office without the aid of tele- phone girl" or typist.
