The climax seemed to be reaehed
when Mr. Duncan invited Dave to ac-
company him to a dinner at which a
noted thinker, just cro.esing, the con-
tinent, lead consented to speak.
"11 will be eyeniug chess," eitid Mr.
Duncan. "I suppos,e you are hardly

ridicule. .
But Mr. Duncan was continuing. "1

CITAPTER VIII.
The eineeier was not far gene when
Dave,. through . an inigeduction fern -
iistied by Mr. Duncan, get a new lob.
It was in the warehouse of a whole-
. Side' geoceeen 'helm:Bing caste and

not hoping that you will have found
destiny in a whelesule.Watehouse, but
you must get out of the dead -line. As
long ele ' you Shovel coal, you will
shovel eoal. And you are not capable
of anything better until you think you
are." ,
"But I've liked it pretty well," said
Dave. "As long as I was just work-
ing for my wages it was dull going,
but it was diffeeent After I got to see
that even shovelling coal was worth
while. 1 4Upp*Se it ie the same With
ermeries; or Whatever one, doeSe As
'soon as you begin to study What you
Imedle the work loses its ,drudgery.
It isn't a man's job that maltea him
eick of his job; it's what he thinks of
his job,"
A .light of satisfaction was in his
teacher's eyes , as Dave made this
ansveer, .Mr. Duncan had realized that.
he was stetting late withethis pupil,
and if 'there Were any short-cuts to
edueatien he must fled. them. SOhe
set out deliberately to instil the idea
that edueation is not a matter of
schools andcolleges, or courses . of
reading, or formulae of any kla, but
a matter of the five senees applied to
every experience of life. And he knew
that nothing was ceaese or common
that passed through Dave's hands.
Coal bad ceased to be a smutty min-
eral, and hazi taken on talismanic
qualities unguessed by the mere am-
inal workman; and sugar, and coffee,
ande,bearts, and rice, and spices, each,
Would open its own wonderful world
before this young and fertile mind.
As a heritage from his boyhood on
the ranges Dave had . aston.iph.ingly
alert senses; his sight, his hearing,
his sense of smell and of touch Were
vastly more acute than those of the
average university grdatiateS . . And
if ehat, were true, Might, it not fairly
be said that Dave wee alreeider the
better' educated of the two, even if he,
as yet, knew nettling of the classics?
. ,
As Dave partedefrom the Metford,
gang he felt that he knew what Mr.
Duncan had meant by •the dead -line.
These wereemen who would always
shavel coal, becauseethey aspired to
nothing, better. There was gni. atom
of .,snobbery in Dave's'imture; he knew•
perfectlywell that 'shovelling "coal
was quite as honorable end respectable
ae means of livelihood as managing ,a
bank, but the mar who was content to
shovel 'coal was, on the dead -line. And;
by ethe ,same logic, the men who was
content to Manage a bank -was on tile
dead -line. That was eepewand sOme-
hi' t starUing aspect of life. He mutt
discuss it with Mr. Duncan. '
•
Dave's energy and enthusiasm in
the wa,rehouse eoon brought him pee -
motion 'froxii truck hand to shippleg
clerk, with an advance in: wages to
sixty-five 'dollars A month. He was
prepared to remain in this position
for Mime tittle,as he know that pro-
motion depends on many things be-
sides ability. Mr: DUridan had Warned
him, against the delusion that man is
entirely magterof his destiny. "Life,
my boy;" he sad said, "is 50 per cen't.
envirournereffandelOme.r cent. heredity,
The 'other 10 per cent. is yours: But
that 10 per cent. is like the steering
.gear in an autotnebile; it's only m
small part of the mechanism but et
'directs the course of the whole me-
ehinee- Get a good 'grip on the part
,of your life yomcan control, and don't
worry over the,reet." -
_ To economize both time and money
Dave took his lunch with him and_ate

man,- and avoided him asmuch as
possible. But this time Mr. Ttapper
was upon him •before he was seen.
"What are you reading?" he de-
manded. '`Yellow backed nonsense?"
"No, sir," eiriel Dave, tieing And ex-

Forest Products Laboratories.
Aid Mining Industries.
The great importance of the forest
industry to Canada decided the De -
minion Government in 1913 to estab-
lish tho Poreet Products Laboratories
of Caneda for the investigation of all
problems connected with the ;WO of
these products. The,. laboratoriee are
condo,ci)ol under 'the Foreetry 13raech
of the,Departinent of the Industries,
The Laboratories, which are affili-
ated ,With, McGill Oniveralty, Mont-
geal, had only got well under way
when the. war broke out, and tor the
next four years its technical men; es-
pecially the chemists, were largely
engaged in combating, with their
technidal knewledge, poteon gas and
other forms of chemical warfare.
Since the close of the war the work
has been thovoughly organized, -aed
the staff nosy consists of forty persons,
of whom 'nearly one-thalf are techni-
cal mem The appropriation by ,Par -
Bement tor this purpose Is about
$1.00,006 per yem. -
One of the most striking successea
of the LabOratorie.s was the discovery
ef a subetitute for pine oil, used in the
oil flotation proce.ss OE refining oro.
This .process is , extensively used in
Canada. As originally developed, the
pro.cese could only be worked by the
use of pine oil, a productot the Pines,
of the Southern States. Owing to the
eree-rmotts demand for pine oil which
the discovery of this process created,
the,price rose to teu and fifteen times,
its original figure, and frequently for
menthe at a tizne Canadian reduction
planta were unable to get it at . any
price. this 'extremity a number' of
Comedian mete owners appealee to the
Minister of the Inte,riory and .the.14111.-
Aster directed tlie-Laboratoriee to In-
vestigate the question. The investi-
gators succeeded in makiu.g pine oil
from Canadian 'red pitie stumps, but
at a cost too high, to render its. nse
commerciaNY feasible. They went fur-
ther, however, and af-ter eight months'
work succeeded „in utilizing A Wage"

such as the general form,of the salad,

A salad iney he served in delicate
green Or rosy esppees which have been
hollowed out, or in ,srnall or large mel-
ons, tomatoee, peppers or other vege-
table oasinge in like manner. The
skaild proper may be just a salad, or it
may have a meat value by the addition
of hat:EP/apnea eggs, nuts, meat left-
overs or cheese. 'Celery, head lettuce
or any -of the dainty vegetables may
be combined with fruit. Bananas and
melons cut in cubes may be combined
with oherries, plums or strawberries.
Pineapples, onangele and grapefruit
May be combined with cucumbers,
pears, apples, grapes or olives. Other
combinations, such as lettuce, half of
a toinato, chopped cucumbm end green
-pepper or lettuce with 'cream 'cheese
moulded with chopped pitnento and
olives or lettoce with moulded .ePinach

dressing recipes:,
French Dressing—With one tea-
spoon of lemon_ juice, fruit vinegar, or
vinegar, rnix one-half teaspoonful
each of „salt and pepper. Gradually
pour this on three teaspoons of olive
oil, stirring. constantly.. Beta well
and toss the salmi in this. Melted

Cooked Mayonnaise—Place in a
double boilerone teacup of vinegar
and let come to a boil and add a tea -
special of salt, ti bit of cayenne pepper,
three teaspoons of mixed or French
mustard, three tablespoons each of
saga; alive oil or melted butter.
While this is heating, beat the yolks
of -three eggs with a level tablespoon-
ful of flour. Whip this lightly into
heated mixture end eook until thick,
stirring constantly and not letting it
boil. ,Take from stove and cool. This
will keep a long while without ice and
is good.
Sour Cream Dressing No,. 1 --Use
cream that is Sour but not old enough
to be strong. Rub smooth the yolks
of four hard-boiled ego and .elowly
add five tablespoons of sour creaM.
Thin will either lemon or fruit juice
or vinegar. •
Sour Cream Dressing No. 2--1',(alce
a smooth paste of a cup of sour cream
and a tablespoon of flour. Heat three
tablespoons of lemon juice or vinegar,
two of butter and one -'half tenapoon
each of sugar and niusta.rel and a bit
of ceyenne, Mix cream and flour in
this end cook three minutes, stirring
constantly. Just before removing
from the fire add the beaten white
of two eggs. Then remove and cool.
Parsley Mayonnaise—Chop and
pound' one 'tablespoon of parley, add-
ing a few drops of eloohol 70 start the
juices and ooloring., This gives a
very spicy flavor to the dreeethe.
Helping the Children to -Appreciate

Children are notoriously ungrateful

-may be true that it it 1133 memo a
parent's duty to give children all poe-
sible advantages, that does -not ab-
solve. the child from feeling and show-
ing gratitude and appreciation, and
this is ea,eieet done by trying to please
father and mother. Children may nest
assured that nothing pleases parents
so much. as ,theesuccels 01 their Sons

If young peoPle, even quite young
