The Brussels Post, 1916-4-13, Page 7When. Little Bear Would Not Werk. One morning when Little Bear wanted to play, his mother sent him out to pull weeds in the blackberry patch. ' When his mother went out to see how he was getting on, she found him lying on the ground and looking at the thy. "Little Bear," said she, "have you finished the weeding?" "No, Mother Bear," was the answer, "it is too hard work. I shall pull no more weeds." Never before had Mother Bear heard Little Bear speak like that; so she took him by the hand and led • him into the house, where Father Bear sat jn his big chair. "Father Bear," she said, "Little Bear will not work." Then behind Little Bear's back she made motions that meant, "But please do not spank him;" ' "Ah -hum! Ah -hum!" began Father Bear, gazing hard at Little Bear. "Do I understand that you will not pull weed's, Son Bear?" "It is too hard work," explained Little -Bear. "I am not big enough to pull weeds in the blackberry patch." "Ah -hum! Ah -hum!" repeated Fa- ther Bear, who was really too sur- prised at first for words. Then said he, "Son Bear, r ought to spank you and send you out to work, and that is what I should do if your mother were willing. But --1' Father Bear said "But" in such a loud, loud voice that Little Bear jumped at the tone. "But little bears who will not pull weeds in the black- berry patch shall not eat black- berries." So upstairs went Little Bear, fol- lowed by his mother, who carried a plate of bread and a brown pitcher full of water from the spring. Mother Bear said nothing when she left Little Bear upstairs with the bread and the water, but he did not mind that, because at first he thought it was a joke. At dinner time, when he smelt fish frying, he felt hungry; but his mo- ther did not bring him any fish and his father said nothing. So Little Bear ate bread and drank water. The afternoon lasted a long, long time. Little Bear. was asleep when his mother brought him more bread and water. When he awoke, he again smelled fish frying. He felt hungry, but still his mother did not bring him any fish and his father said nothing. Then he called his mother and his father. "What is the trouble with Son Bear?" inquired Father Bear, when Mother Bear led the little fellow downstairs. "I am hungry!" wailed Little Bear. "Have you no bread?" asked Fa- ther Bear. "I cannot eat just bread," answered Little Beal, "not when I smell fish; and besides, I am lonesome. I will weed the blackberry patch and the whole garden, and I'll hoe the corn, and Pll work like Sally Beaver, if you'll let me have fish for my sup- per, and blackberries, and honey, and "Very well, Son Bear," agreed Fa- ther Bear. "You shall sit down to supper, and weed the blackberry patch before dark," Little Bear passed his plate, and Father Bear filled it with trout, and mashed potatoes, and currant jelly. Mother Bear passed him the johnny- cake, and gave him a big dish of blackberries and a brown mug full of milk, Little Bear was so hungry that ho ate two whole speckled trout, and five pieces of johnnycake, and three heaping dishes of blackberries, and drank two mugfuls of milk before he went outal t d weeded the blackberry patch. Ile was tired when he went to bed that night, and on many other nights afterward, but he said nothing about it, nor did he ever stop his work in the garden until he had done it all es well as he could; for he soon Round out that when he had worked hard, even bread and water tasted good, but that when he had not work- ,.

NEW FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH. began to buy garden seeds with a lush e ones • charge of it and to inaugurate and eon -I ;duct a country -wide campaign for the' increase of vegetable production. His t plan of operations embraces practical' d measures of help, besides more pro- paganda. All available lands about . cities, factory sites, and elsewhere will e be put into vegetables and properly cultivated. The superintendent of gar- s dening is communicating with the vari- t ons economic war organizations to In- duce them to look after suplies of o manure for the armies of volunteer gardeners thus to be called into the field ; the waste from slaughter houses and cold -storage plants, and the sweep- ings from the streets are to be turn- ed over to them at a very low cost. Not only will vegetables be grown in. greater quantities than ever before, but the preserving of them will ba on a larger scale than ever known, The 52 canning and preserving factories at Brunswick (the centre of the industry) put up about 200,000,000 cans of vege- ' tables from last year's crop, as compar- ed with 70,000,000 cans for 1914. WAR CROSS ON KNIFE GRINDER Recently Meld Marshal Von Binds burg gave expression to some inter esting views regarding the influence the war bas held on the youth, vitality and energy of the men engaged in it It was at his headquarters in Russia a few weks ago that the field marshal received a call from an 80 -year-old man who had been a neighbor of his for a long time. He was delighted to see the aged man so full of energy and vitality, and made some compli- mentary remarks on the care he took of himself. "But, my dear field marshal," re- plied the aged elan, "I am at home, enjoying every comfort, and have lit- tle else to do but look after myself. I am, however, wondering how you man- age to keep your health and look younger than your sixty-eight years in all the storm and stress of this cam- paign. I understand you go to bed very ]ate and get up very early. Yet you appear in better health than ever before." My friend, it is all a matter of the will," replied the field marshal. "What- ever happens I make up my mind t0 face it, and there is the whole secret of youth. All that is necessary 1.1 to have some fixed purpose, some aim or ambition ever before you, and it is amazing how cheerfully you will do your work. Then it is that you have no time to think of getting old. Ycu sleep less and eat less, never think of looking at the clock, but simply work, worst, work. It is immaterial whether the weather is stormy or the sun is shining; you don't even native it. That is what is keeping me young," n- Paris Dressmakers Crowd to Pat- - ronize Disabled Soldier.

WISE HOSTESS. • Won Her Guests to Postum. "Three great coffee drinkers were my old school friend and her two daughters. "They were always complaining and taking medicine." (Both tea and coffee are injurious s to many persons, because they contain the subtle, pois- onous drug, caffeine.) "I determined to give them Postum instead of cof- fee when they visited me, so. without saying anything to them about it, I made a big pot of Postum the first morning. "Before the meal was half over, each one passed up her cup to be refilled, remarking how fine the 'cof- fee' was, The mother asked for a third cup and inquired as to the brand of coffee I used. I didn't answer her question just then, for I heard her say a while before that she didn't like Postum unless it was more than half coffee. "After breakfast I told her that the 'coffee' she liked so well at break- fast was pure Postum, and the reason she lilted it was because it Was pro- perly made. "I have been brought up from a 1crvous, wretched invalid, to a fine condition of physical health by leave ng coffee and using Postum.

They are simply splendid; and with their cries of 'Good old Gordons, and 'There's nae place like Scotland' ringing above the awful din, we retook the trench. I have seen a lot, but the Canadian rush was top-notch. Those Canad- ians, with a roar like the crashing of waves on a rocky shore, dashed forward. Clean over our heads they leaped, and things did get lively with bayonets, clubbed rifles and every- thing, In one case I saw a stalwart Canadian seize a Hun and, lifting him high over his head, fling right into the middle of their barbed wire. The scrap, was short and sharp, the Canadians beating back the Huns." Manitoba Woman Sends Message TELLS SUFFERING WOMEN TO USE DODD'S KIDNEY PILLS. Mrs. F. J.

Garlis, wife of en estimable resident of this place, is enthusiastic in her praises of Dodd's Kidney Pills. "Dodd's Kidney Pills have helped me wonderfully," Mrs. Garlis says in an interview. "A year ago I was so bad with my back I could hardly move. I took four boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills and they helped Inc more than I can tell you," Mrs. Garlis is now able to attend to ler household duties as well as nurse her line big baby boy and she feels that she cannot recommend Dodd's Kidney Pills too highly. Backache is the bane of the average woman's life. It is accompanied by a weakness and lassitude that makes life a burden. But thousands of wo- men all over Canada are telling their f suffering sisters that relief and cure s to be found in Dodd's Kidney Pills. They cure the kidneys and nine -tenths of women's ills come from diseased or disordered kidneys. Saving for a Sunny Day. Jake Penticoff was a unique char- acter.

In the last 18 months we have bee.. in prgbably 200 different towns or vil ;ages, but the most peculiar of till was the little town of P—. It was less than 2000 yards from the German lines, yet. the civilians still live in the town, although not always in their houses, says a writer in Leslie's Magazine. A steep -sided, horseshoe- ' shaped ;til] Meioses Ile little valley in which the town.lies, and the toe of the shoe is toward the German lines. Tlu'ee-quarters of the way up the side of the ridge is an outcropping of lime- ; stone, in which are many natural caves. Tho houses are built just in front of the caves, and the latter are used as stables, wine cellars and gran- aries. The brow of the hill is the site of a second line treLeh, so that the caves are occupied by troops and artil- lery horses. The civilians, however, refuse to be crowded out, Tti a were in this sector only a week but during that time the town was shelled every day, usually for half an lour between noon and 4 in the after- ! noon. At the sound of the first shell ' the troops and the women would all take to the caves and wait until the bombardment was over. More danger- ' 0115 than the bombard.shells were the banes perdues or stray bullets that I spattered into the town, This constant shelling had demolish - I ed the church, schoolhouse and malty ! of the dwellings of the town, but the parish priest moved both church and school into one of the caves, and there the children learned their lessons ou weekdays and on Sunday gatherea with their elders for the services of the church, secure front both bullets and shells. The remains of the furniture from the shattered church and school build Ings had served to scantily furnish the cave. The unconcern with which the people of this village looked upon the; ravages of war would have been a great surprise to me if I had not seen similar evidences of fortitude in so many other places, WOULD NOT BE WITHOUT BABY'S OWN TABLETS Baby's Own Tablets are guaranteed by a Government analyst to be absolu- tely safe and free from injurious drugs.

Lord Ruthven—a Crimean veteran, 7? years old, but as spry as a cricket and twice as jolly, now back in service as Provost Mar- shal of London—took me the other day to Victoria Station to see the seven days' leave of absence omen start back for the trenches. Their womenfolk were there, and no weep- ing, no embracing and falling in a faint, but just hiss, a bright smile, a "good luck," a wave of the hand- kerchief as• the train pulled out, and the babies in their arms kissing their hands to "daddy," whom perhaps (and probably) they will never see again. I wish people from St. Louis, Kansas City, Atlanta, and Omaha could come over hero and get it into their heads that an ardent longing fox' peace is not the finest thing in the world, and that they have wealth and comfort and ease now because their forefathers knew what was right t and fought for it.

Lord Bassey, despite his great age, is very keenly interested in the war, and has presented his famous yacht, Sunbeam, to the Government of India for hospital purposes. Always noted for his loveof an outdoor life, Lord Brassey in his younger days was an enthusiastic amateur cricketer, and many a game was played on his es- tate. On one occasion, the players be- ing short of an umpire, one of his lordship's footmen was asked to fill the position. During Lord Brassey's innings a swift ball came and took the bail off neatly. "How's that?" he asked of the footman umpire. "I sin afraid, your lordship; said the man politely, "I must say that you are not at home." "Not at home I" exclaim- ed xclaimed the noble batsman in surprise. "What do you mean?" "Well," re- turned the footman, with a neat bow, "if your lordship must have it, you are hout!" a' Man's Adaptability.
