Concrete Tanks and Troughs Never Rot or Leak r�HE most practical tanks,awhether fir water or sewage, are built of concrete. They never rust, rot, dry out or leak. They never need new hoops or paint. They last a lifetime and seldom require repairing, which makes them the cheapest tanks that can be built. Clean, Sanitary Watering Troughs are.just as necessary as the animals that drinkfrom them. The ' farmer's best interests are being served' when his stock is in- sured a plentiful supply of clear, clean water from a trough that is permanent and sanitary. "What the Farmer can do with Concrete" is the name of a handsome free book that tells all about concrete tanks, watering troughs and other uses of concrete that will save every farmer many dollars.

Stauffer I. --Laying Out To -morrow's Work It was six o'clock and the factory workers were trooping past the time register, each employee pushing a but- ton recording to the minute his hours of work that day. This mechanical exacta esa, this conviet•like numbering of men, this lock -step march past the clock, was just beginning to arousd whatever socialistic tendencies were within me, when my friend the torernan, after waiting till the last man was beyond hearing, remarked: "I expect a strike to -morrow for short- er hours." I felt like telling him that I sympathized with the men, that I wouldn't work where I had to push a button, and that I hoped they would strike and win. But instead, I listened to his reasons why he thought the hours were short enough and tho wages high enough. When we reached the corner where our paths homeward separated, I was still a silent listener, and a sceptic as well. "Will you be at the church concert to -night?" I asked in parting, 'No, I ahall not be able to come,'' answered the foreman quietly; "I must go back to the factory after supper, and lay out to -morrow's work." The last five words are not used to indicate any particular emphasis of the speaker, but to give you somd faint idea of the force with which the announcement collided with my previous line of thought. I suddenly lost my horror for the time recorder. Even the numbering system didn't ap- pear quite so bad. This man, who, I had noticed, did not need to push a but- ton on leaving, had to go back to work while his men could spend their even Ings with their families. The exectei tive duties could not be measured by the clock. On the foreman's sacrifice of pleasure that night depended the work of a hundred men next day. I am making no comparisons, I am not speaking for the employer against the employee, I am not making a point against labor's demands. I merelyt hold before your view that foreman going back to lay out to -morrow's 'work. The clock did not record that extra time; very likely the men never gave it a thought. Indeed, the world over we are tod apt to forget the man who is layinij out to -morrow's work. He may be It foreman, he may be a promoter, hd .may be a farmer, he may be a cap, tain of industry. Perhaps it is next year's work he is laying out. In cut. - ting out a garment, in writing a book, In designing a building, in planning a railroad line, in organising a buss; nese in creating a new commodity, in inventing a device, these foremen are laying out the work of the future for thousands who could not do it for .themselves. The many are wolf equipped to follow; the few are quail, fled to lead. We will always need the architect, whether he plans buildings, campaigns, books or industries. So while we sympathize with all who toil with their hands, while we want to secure for them all they earn and all the leisure hours they should have, let us not forget that, under any social system the Utopian dreamers 'may devise, the world will always need the foreman who lays out to- morrow's work. SERMONS OUT OF CHURCH By the Rev. Byron H. Stauffer IL—Firewood for the Next Man. o There is no other way of serving God than by serving- men—no other way, I say with emphasis. And the best service to humanity is lea ring something good behind us. A woods - ,man gave me that lesson on a fishing trip. We had spent. our fortnight in camp, and were about to embark for our ten -mile canoe voyage down to the 'portage, where the wagon would be in waiting. Sailor bags, grips, and bun- dles were stowed away in the birch - barks, and we were waiting impa... tiently for old man Crumpy to take the ladies ahead in his new boat. At length we heard him in the woods be- hind the cabin, chopping wood. How annoying it was! And what was he doing it for? , "I'll go and give the old guide a Tice° of my.mind"—and I ran up the `hill, through the underbrush, around the shack and bank—there was Crum- •py carrying a great armful of pine - sticks, which he deposited on the porch, carefully covering it with bark. "What are you doing, Crumpy?" I shouted. ."You're delaying the start, and you yourself said that we Must hurry .to get across the lake before the wind rises," Even the calm, quiet tone of the old man's answer was a rebuke to my ilcolding note. "Comm' right off," was his tran- quil reply. "Ye see, I've jest chopped a bit of firewood fer Whose idever may hap'n along next.

Stauffer III. ---Compelled to Act Pauper When Jesus told Simon Peter t. pay the Jewish hear tax with the pe ceeds of his morning's catch, I' taught the world a lesson in payin up! No man can really enjoy wealta which is obtained by defrauding com monwealth, corporation or individua I know a man who will never dare to flourish his money. He will always be compelled to turn away from the gaze of bystanders when he draws ou his purse, He never can boast tha ho is comfortably fixed. And by th way, have you ever noticed how few people, comparatively can be induced to confess that they are well off. They seem to fear that making the admission may shortly cost them something. The income tax collector, too, might hear of it, Methinks if were rich I should like to tell abou it once in a while; point to yon house and announce that I am going to have a, new verandah added next spring; comment on the price of Canadian Pacific, and say that I expect to buy a little more if it goes down to two hundred. Well, this poor fellow I was speak- ing of dare never indulge in that kind of pleasure, though I suspect that he could do so truthfully. The reason is that he had not paid what he owes. He has unsatisfied judgments out against him. There are those who are watching him, hoping to discover where ho keeps his pile, so he keeps the location of the pile a secret. He has no employment; he must be clas- sed as a vagrant, having no visible means of support. Yet he looks very comfortable. He wears good clothes, and dines on succulent steaks. He' and his wife take extravagant vaca- tions, and go to the best shows. But for fifteen long years they have never been heard to say one word about :their circumstances. Is not that an awful life to live? :And all because he holds what some- one else ought to possess. He never :intends to pay up. Consequently his life is dwarfed; he has no close' ;friends; he lives alone in the world to about the same extent as if lid' had absconded to New Zealand. He, is being automatically punished for' having broken God's law. • Oh. that our preachers would saY amore about this class of sins!

Byron H, Stauffer S1V.—Seeing the Other Fellow's Side Franz and Gaspard were Swiss peasants living in the same Alpine alley, One summer evening, Franz !went over to his .neighbor to s/y: "Gaspard, you know that for two generations there has been a disagree- ment between your family and mine concerning the ownership of the trip ;of woodland up the mountain side. ;Now that the timber has become nore valuable, itis advisable to have the point settled, lest our children at alength get to quarrelling over it. I ;have therefore assembled the judges lin town to -Morrow to settle the title; come with me, and we will both State our claims." "I cannot go with you to -morrow," answered Gaspard. "You flee my hay is ready to be stacked, and the weather may change." "And I cannot 'send away the judges, who have .chosen the day themselves," replied 1Franz, So they debated for some tithe. At length Gaspard said, "b'ranre the base weapons of unfair advan- tage.

An interesting mechanical addi- tion to the staff of the G. P. O. is 'undergoing a probationary period at a Liverpool postoffice. It is an elabor- ate mechanical device for doing a great part of the work of sorting hith- erto performed ,by human hands. In its operation the ' uman element is not eliminated, as the machine re- quires to be "fed" by hand with let- ters, but thereafter it both simpli- fies and accelerates enormously the process of sorting. The letters are dropped into a series of slots ranged compactly together, each slot repre- senting one of the main "roads" into which, for postoffice purposes, the country is divided• for the distribu- tion of letters. From the slots the packets are spread out on to mov- ing belts, which convey them to the stamping machine, which forms an auxiliary of the mechanical sorter. The machines are ,estimated to sort and stamp 500 or more letters per minute, whereas the "record" for hand stamping alone is said to be 110 a minute. Are We Too Civilized? The world is over -civilized, accord- ing to Sir Thomas Dewar, who says his big game hunting expedition to British East Africa, from which he has just returned, was largely due to his wish to escape from civiliza- tion, with its many barbarities. "We dwell in a vicious atmosphere in small rooms, over here, patronize over -heated restaurants, and, though we eat three meals a day, we do only about one mile in exercise,", said Sir Thomas. "Out there in British East Africa the native on one meal a day composed of water that is often half mud, and a handful of mealie flour is able to run 50 miles, live in na- ture's open air, and keep, as I kept during my stay, perfectly fit and vigorous. That is why I am making still another expedition to the White Nile this time—in November." Witchcraft In India. The belief in witchcraft is wide- spread in India, especially among the tribes low in the scale of civilization., The ojha, or exorcist, is an important member 0f the community.

In Winter feed wet oat straw in preference to hay. Do not feed any bulky feed at noon. Keep the bowels aetive. Wet all feed.

HUNTING THE CARIBOU • I Curiosity Often Lures the Watchful Animal to Its Fate. In hunting the caribou quietness is essential. Never break a twig if you can avoid it, for a cracking branch makes a .noise which carries far and may give warning of your approach to the very stag you particularly want. Equally important is it to keep a sharp lookout at alt times, especially when entering a barren, where a stag may be sleeping, for under such conditions they are hard to see. Among the nu- merous gray dead stumps and moss covered low trees the color of the cari- bou is so inconspicuous that the un- trained eye will fail to detect the ani- mal even at close range. The first in- timation will be a glimpse of a disks - peering patch of white as the caribou vanishes into the woods. All these things considered, the cari- bou arrbou of Newfoundland is not as alert as any other deer that 1 know of and is therefore more readily approached. There is, of course, great variation among them, some being extremely alert and difficult to stalk, while oth- ers are so absurdly tame that they will allow a man to walk right up to within a few yards before taking flight. Curi- osity is often a noticeable failing with them. When once it is aroused they will go to almost any length to satisfy it. I do not, however, advise the bun- ter to count too much on it. for the very thing which you imagine will tempt this curiosity will as likely as not frighten them away. Sometimes a strange noise will make them very inquisitive, and they will come within a few feet to find out what it is. Then, occasiouaily, a white handkerchief will have the same effect. -A.

He apologized for the length He referred to forcible feeding, and said that, by t"e simple plan of introducing food into the hollow of the cheek, the "greatest refinenient of torture" could be avoir ed. Some .applause greeted this announcement. In introducing a series of micro- photographs of brain sections, shown to the audience by limelight, Dr. Wilson remarked that unfortun- ately we had in this country been in such a state of barbarism for the last. forty years that instead of turning out useful people from our schools we produced people with starved. brains or brains crammed with use- less information and fit only for blind -alley employment. "The way we have educated chil- dren," he said, "is so grossly stupid that there are no words in the Eng- lish language bad enough to de- scribe it. . Young children with bright, cheerful faces, can be seen in London alleys who later grow tired - looking, and then quite exhausted. They have no thinking brains; but they might have been useful citizens. Starvation or education by the school board brought about this state of things. "Lovely cells!" "nice," or "good- looking brains!" were some of the expressions used by the lecturer to describe his illustrations of the brain of a child of five years. The audience laughed; but were thoroughly appreciative when the significance of the photographs was expl.-ined by comparison with others of healthy and unhealthy adult brains. "It is no wonder we want to hang this sort of man," remarked Dr. Wil- son, as a murderer's brain section was exposed to view, "but it is ob- vious that he should be treated as an undeveloped child and kept in a lunatic asylum."
