OUR MURDEROUS NEIGHBORS.
(Toronto Star Weekly )•
If you were asked to name the most
murderous country on earth, your
thoughts would probably wander in the
direction of Turkey or China or the
Congo or some other outlandish spot.
But you would be wrong. The country
in which the most murders are commit-
ted and with the greatest freedom
from punishment, is the civilized coun-
try which calls itself the United States.
Last year there were no fewer than
8.975 deaths from murder; and you can
get some idea of what these figures
mean if you reflect that every time the
cloek strikes, from the first to the last
day of the year, some one is murdered
in that country.
Suppose you read in the paper one
day that in Chicago or New York a
gang of dynamitards had slaughtered
a hundred innocent persons, you would
doubtless be horrified; and yet so colos-
sal is the total of murders that such an
outrage would not make any perceptible
difference in the average.
A closer examination of the figures
is still more striking than the total.
Out of nearly 9,000 murders, only 1,000
were committed by what may be called
professional criminals, that is, high-
waymen and footpads. The rest was
the work of amateurs, or those who
are not habitually criminals.

Why Go West?
(Lucknow Sentinel.)
` A man was asked the question, "Why
are you working?" He replied: "to
get comfort." And that is exactly
what the majority of people are after.
Some men get more comfort out of
$500 a year, than others do out of $1000;
much depends on their management
and on the place in which they live.
And the one who gets comfort out of
the smaller salary is frequently the
best off. It is true that in Ontario
you can get a greater degree of com-
fort for Iess money than you can get
anywhere else in the Dominion of Can-
ada. A farmer in Ashfield or Kinloss
enjoys far more comfort than he would
have on the western prairie. The citi-
zen of Lucknow has greater comfort at
less cost than he could get in any wes-
tern town. A young man (a farmer)
who has spent a year in the West was
asked what was his opinion of the
West. "Just this," he replied, "We
are worth now $5,000. I can take that,
buy a small farm here with comfort-
able house and barn on it, and get
more real comfort than I could get
with $20,000 out west. So I calculate
to remain in Bruce." Another man.
from Ashfield 'who went for a trip
offered his farm for sale at $6,000.
When he returned he said he would not
take $7,000 for his Ontario farm. Said
he: "1 never saw a poor farmer until
I went West," People of Bruce and,
Huron! remain here and enjoy real
comforts and work the gold mine about
you!
Potatoes and Sugar Beets,
Numbers of potatoes too small to
find a ready market were fed to chick-
ens this year around Clinton with good
results When boiled the potatoes are
very acceptable to all kinds of poultry,
and farm animals also like them. Pou,-
try enthusiasts see in this the chance
for the development of a large chicken
industry in connection with the present
potato boom. The growing of sugar
beets, while not very successful last
year on account of weather conditions,
seems to give promise of future devel-
opment in Huron County. One man

Q WEAK ACHING BACK

with this industry in the past has been1

One of the questions propounded was, "\Vhat tea do you

LIPTO
ONE WAY TO BOOST.
While the local newspapers of this
and every other town in these western
counties are "boosting" week in and
week out for the benefit of their sever-
al communities, what are the business
men and people doing for the news-
paper, for the latter cannot exist on
words of praise alone. The best booster
a town can have is the local paper and
it fairly represents the enterprise of
the place in which it is published. For
instance, at the present time we are
trying to attract attention abroad
and to draw people here. A glance
at the advertising columns of the local
papers should give an outsider some
idea of the town's business interests.
Apply the test and note the number of
business men of the town, merchants
and manufacturers whose advertise-
ments appear in the local pap-
ers. The papers push and boost
week in and week out in the interest of
all, but far from all help to support the
papers.
Imagine the mental picture this town
would present to the outsider picking
up the paper and glancing over it if the
name of every business firm appeared
in the advertising columns in the local
papers, even if he takes only an inch
of space.
The local newspaper should be a
business directory of the town.
The town has, however, several good
advertisers who constantly keep to the
front, and their example should be
generally followed.
Calling on Brides.
Why are the brides of to -day in Tor-
onto so pestered with callers? Pester-
ed I know is rather a strong word to
use, but when one sees the way people
who have absolutely no excuse for call-
ing, stream in and leave their bits of
pasteboard on a bride, who, goodness
knows, has enough to do to return the
calls of those she does ,know, one won-
ders why it is done. Is it to swell one's
calling Iist? Is it vulgar curiosity, or
is it both combined? Only the other
day one of the season's brides confided
to me over the tea cups on a day that
she was not at home, "that dozens of
the cards which had been left her were
those of people unknown to her or her
husband, and who could not even claim
the excuse of living in the same neigh-
borhood. I know of a case a short
time ago when a bride received at her
beautiful home and on being told that
some of the callers were going through
the house, even to the servants' quar-
ters, sent maids to say; "These are
private apartments." Another case
where a bride at no small expense had
put "American Beauties" throughout
her rooms, on going upstairs after
found that out of two dozen only seven
remained. On inquiring of the maids
she learned that several ladies *tak-
en
a rose, pinned it carelessly heir
coat as though it were quite the cor-
rect thing to do. It hardly sered-
ible that such things couldlikpen
among people one knows and yet what
I have told are only two of dozens of
cases one hears of. -Toronto Mail and

Gentle Annie
The time approaches, Mr. Man, when
you will take the sprinkling ean, and
rake and spade and hoe, and blow your-
self for sacks of seeds which will pro.
duce all kinds of weeds when they be-
gin to grow, It is a strange, note-
worthy thing, that with the coming of
the spring, man yearns to delve the
ground, to labor with the fragrant soil
as Father Adam used to toil, to fuss
and potter round. He dreams of finer
cabbageheads and cucumbers and onion
beds than ever man has seen; and he
will raise the finest slaw and succotash
both boiled and raw, that ever wore the
green. Lxperience might teach him
that his visions Will be broken flat, his
Orders be a fake, that all the harvest
he will get will be a rippling rill of
sweat, and fifty kinds of ache. But
man forgets his former Woes when
Gentle
Annie
comes and blows upon her
fairy pipe; once more the luscious soil
he digs and plant again his thingrny-
jigs, his cauliflower and tripe. We've
civilized the human until there merely
is a trace of old priftteval man, save
when the springtime makes us ache to
tinker with the hoe and rake and spade
and sprinkling Gari. -Walt Mason,

FOR THE COOK.
Whites of eggs will not whip stiff
if too fresh or too stale.
Cream will not whip stiff unless very
cold and at least thirty-six hours old. '
Mayonnaise dressing separates when
too much salt has been added to the
yolks of the eggs, and when the oil is
added too fast at first, or when the
ingredients are warm,
Fried foods, as croquettes and oy-
sters, are greasy because the fat has
not been sufficiently hot to coagulate
quickly the outside covering.
Batter puddings are soggy and heavy
when they contain too little flour, or
when the baking powder has been mix-
ed with the flour and this added to the
milk and egg some time before the
pudding has been baked.
When cakes are saggy in the middle
they are not sufficiently baked. The
centre of the cake is the last part to
bake. Before removing a cake from
the oven touch it lightly in the centre;
if the finger makes an imprint the cake
is not done; if it springs back and does
not "tick" or "sing" it is done.
Sauces and gravies have a layer of
fat on top when more fat is used than
can be held in suspension by the flour,
or the thickening of the sauce. Use a
level tablespoonful of fat to each level
tablespoonful of flour. One gill one
half -cupful -of liquid is the proper
proportion to this amount.
To prevent milk from separating
When added to vegetable soups, as
tomato and asparagus, heat it in a
separate vessel; add to it the thicken-
ing and mix it with the vegetable ma-
terial at serving time; a quarter of a
teaspoonful of bicarbonate of soda add-
ed to the tomatoes will also prevent
the curdling.

Place the seed in a tight box or barrel.
A coal -oil barrel is good. It will hold
about five bushels. Place three or four
ounces of the carbon bisulphide in a
small pan on top of the peas. Cover,
and allow to remain for 48 hours. The
carbon bisulphide will have evaporated,
and the gas being heavier than air,
will settle among the peas and smother
the weevils.

Just Think of it.
No man has ever travelled so far as
has his own blood. The heart is mere-
ly a hollow muscle consisting of two
pumps, one of which sends blood to the
lungs, the other pumping blood through
the tissues. The stream of blood leav-
ing the heart travels 621 feet a minute,
seven mites an hour, 168 miles a day,
61,000 miles a year. For the blood to
make the entire circuit (better known
as the figure eight circuit) from heart
to lungs, then back to the heart, thence
to the tissues and finally back to the
heart again. requires in the adult, says
Dr. Latson, about twenty-three seconds,
in the smaller body, that of a child, the
circuit is made much more rapidly and
the heart beats correspondingly fast.
For instance at birth the heart beats
at about 136 to the minutes, and the
blood makes its entire figure eight cir-
cuit in about twelve seconds. At 3
years old the heart rate is 108, and the
blood stream makes its journey in about
fifteen seconds. At 5 the pulse is
eighty-eight and the blood circuit re-
quires eighteen seconds.

Lesson V5 --Second Quarter, For,
May 51 1912.
THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES.
Text of the Lesson, Luke vi, 20.26; xvi,
19 -31 -Memory Verses, Luke! vi, 20,
21 --Golden Text, Luke xii, 15 -Com-
mentary Prepared by Rev." D. M.
Stearns,
These few verses In Luke vi are
part of His discourse in the presence
of fits disciples and a great multitude
of people who came to bear ilial and
to be healed of their diseases as Heb
came down from the mountain and
stood in the plain. The teaching is
somewhat similar to that in last week's
lesson, but the poverty and hunger and
weeping seem to be more literal phys-
ical conditions than in the Sermon
on the Mount; also by contrast thet
riches and fullness and laughter of
verses 24, 25. The contrast between
the "now" and n future time is more""
fully set forth in the Luke xvi lesson,
and the bright side of it is concisely
stated in I Cor. sill, 12, "Now we see
through a glass darkly, but then face
to face; now 1 know in part, but then
shall I know even as also 1 am known."
As to literal poverty, we know the
grace of our Lord Jesus Christ -that,
though He was rich, yet for our sakes
Ile became poor, that we through His
poverty might be rich (II Cor. viii, 9),
and as we think of the Bethlehem
manger, the Nazareth borne and the
bringer and thirst and homelessness of
Ills life ofttimes in Ills public ministry
we may perhaps imagine something of
ordinary poverty, but who can tell the
full meaning of the emptying, the
service, the humility and obedience of
Phil. 11, 7, 8, R. V.? The literally
rich are often poor in sprit, meek and
lowly at heart, while the literal poor
are often proud and self centered. We
must always remember that the Lord
looketh on the heart and trieth thee,,
heart (l Sam. xvf, 7; .ler. xvi1, 10). ''^01Falw.`
The "woe unto you when 011 men shall
spear; well of you" of verse 25 seems
not to be a'very popular verse in some
quarters, for even preachers and evan-
gelists hare been known to hold back
the truth on certain great topics so aa
to have the approval of men, a. very
prominent worker having recently said
publicly that be aimed. never to hurt
the feelings of his fellow ministers.
How very different from Him who
said, "I do always those things that
please the Father," and also from the
apostle whose principle was "not as
pleasing men, but God, who trieth out
hearts" (John viii, 29; Thess. 11, 4).
Concerning the topic of our lesson.
"Poverty and Riches," Luke abounds
In records of rich men, as in xii, 16;
xvi, 1; xviii, 23; xis, 2: xxi. 1, besides
the rich man and Lazarus of the last
part of our lesson. From these pas-
sages we note that a man's life con-
sistetb not in the abundance of the
things which be possesseth, and some
would do well to ask themselves, "Then
whose shall those things be?" Riches
sometimes make it difficult for the
owners to enter the kingdom, and yet
Zaccheus, who was rich, did enter.
Sometimes the gifts of the rich did not
count as much in Ills sight as the gifts
of the poor. We are simply stewards,
whether intrusted with mysteries or
money or other things, and we must
give an account of our stewardship.
We may so use that which is intrusted
to us as to become rich toward God
(Luke II, 21), and those who have been
helped by us to know the Lord will
make greater to us the glory in His
kingdom, while the Lord Himself will
reward all His faithful ones at the
resurrection of the just (Luke xiv, 14;
Rev. sail, 12). Our Luke xvi lesson
study reads like a statement of facts,
and there is no reason why it should be
called a parable. It is the one occasion
on which our Lord drevf aside the veil
and gave us to see the unseen realities
after we leave these bodies, plainly
teaching that for each one it will be
happiness or torment, not the highest.
degree of bliss which will be the be-
llever's portion only after the resurrec-
tion of the righteous nor the deepest
woe which will be the unbeliever's
portion after the judgment of the great
White throne, but a conscious existence
in bliss or woe, with no possibility of
passing from one to the other. The
rehson of the rich man's condition aft-
er death Was not because he had been
rich, but from the last verse of the
Chapter it is evident that when on
earth he had no use for Moses or the
prophets. He was not a believer in
the Scriptures, but evidently proud and
'self satisfied. After death he proved
the reality of a place or torment and
became anxious that his brethren
!should not reach the same destination,

dead they would belleve, but tuns told
that the 'writings of )beset and the
