to keep comfort in the little house
which was their very own.
Polly wanted to go to school, but
this day it was impossible, because
the two JIOtla till r0m were left
in
her care.; Polly was not a very big
girl, but she was in tbo seventh
grade in school, and she know "just
everything," so Tommy, her nee -
year -old brother, said.
Polly had washed the breakfast
dishes. She Kaci swept the little liv-
ing -room, and mode it just as neat
*s her small hands could. She had
slipped out into the small garden
and gathered a bouquet of the late
flowers, and this brisk little .those
in the fresh air gave Polly two blos-
soms of which sho was not aware—
roses in her cheeks. After all this
was done, sho amused two-year-old
Baby Grace, and gave her her howl

she happily crooned herself to sleep.
Polly busied herself with her les-
sons, for sho meant to get every

t0 recite thein. Tommy had a little
book, too, 'but the words ho know
and could read somewhat resembled
himself in sine, for both wore little.
The pieturee lost their power to
please. He did wish Polly could
leave her lessons and play with him,
These children find to learn some
things many do not. Tommy had
to learn to aldose himself when ho

self, too. 1t often happens that the

of schooling.
Polly glanced at Tommy. She saw
that ho was getting tired of himself.

Pommy responded at once with a

"I've found a jewel -box, Tommy!"
Tommy looked mystified.
"See here, Tommy," said Polly,
showing him the rows of words. She
copied a few on his slate for bim—
anthem, sonnet, opera, sonata, can-
-tate, oratorio.,.
Them were only part of the lesson,
but enough to hold pinny "jewels,"
as Polly called them.

American bicycles in Great Britain
are now practically unsaleable. Yot
at one time the Americans threaten-
ed to &weep the market. They came
in just at the smash of the Hooley
conmanis', when our cycle firms
could 1101. defend themselves. Every-
thing was 10 their favor for captur-
ing the emote of the British trade.
But they stert•.ed oft with the idea
that the elite.° Britisher didn't know
what a real bicycle was, and so
tried to teach him, They brought

were utterly en1tted for the English

their trade declining they merely
put worse sniff into their machines,

ish public sadly shook its head.

American shipowners prefer to put
their vessels under the British flag,
because of the extra cost Of an Am-

the pay -roll alone is increased by
fifty per cent. To the build l g of

IRELAND CAN GROW TOBACCO.
An Initial Experiment Produces
Surprising Results.
A new era appears to have opened
for Ireland. Not only will she be a
manufacturer al tobacco, but she
appears likely Co be able to grow a
good leaf of her own.
1"rom the lauds of Col. Nugent De-
creed, in Iiandalstown, County
Meath, twenty acres of tobacco have
been harvested, and Professor J. N.
Harper, of Kentucky University, the
American tobacco expert, describes
it as "a tobacco crop of the highest
quality, quite equal to that in Vir-
ginia and X0entueky." Professor Har-
per also pronounces the Irish dinette
to be almost perfectly suited for to-
bacco culture.
Col Everard has been supported by
the Irish Department of Agriculture
and bis is the first experiment in
producing a tobacco crop in Ireland
o11 a commercial and practical scala.

SHIRT
Made big enough for a big
man to work in with comfort
Has more material in it than
'any other brand of shirt in
Canada. Made on the
H.B.K. scale it requires 39/
to 42 yards per dozen, whereas
common shirts have only 32
to 33 yards.
That's the reason why the
H.B.K. "Big" Shirt never
chafes the armpits, is never
tight at the neck or wrist-
bands, is always loose, full
and comfortable and wears
well.
Each sh irt bears a tiny book
that tells the whole history
or the " Big " Shirt, and
also contains a notarial
declaration that the H.B.K.
" Big" Shirt contains 3934
to 42 yards of material per
dozen.
Sold at all dealers but only
with this brand:—
