Unappreciated Laureates.
The poets laureate of England have
not always been such as a committee
of critics, or even of representative
readers, would have selected for the
laurel crown. The late Alfred Austin,
author of some• very pretty verses,
was by no means'the weakest poet to
Bold the honor; but it was generally
believed to exceed his merits. In the
r"eeent • Life and Letters of Lady
Dorothy Nevi]] an anecdote is related
of the meeting of the poet and a dis-
tinguished lawyer --a man endowed
with more wit than kindness.
"May I ask, Mr. Austin," said the
Iawyer soon after they were intro-
duced, "do you find that poetry pays?"
"Thank you," replied Austin, good-
naturedly overiockinge-the impertire
ence of the question; "I do pretty well;
I alwaysmanage to 'keep the wolf
from the door,"
"And pray do you read your poetry
to the wolf?"
The uncalled=for cruelty of such a
thrust far exceeds its wit, witty
though it undoubtedly was. Much
more comfortably enjoyable Is the oft -
quoted comment of a British peer who
had some appreciation of letters on
theappointment to the laureateship

versifier, Henry Pye,
"Well," said: a friend to the noble

Caught in the Undertow
There is a general belief that rapid-
ly flowing streams are shallow, That
may be true In ordinary cases, but it
doesnot apply to the rivers of north-
western Canada,
In one case the river was littered
with log jams., round which the water
curled and eddied. An explorer's pack
horse, in crossing, suddenly became
enterprising and started off to do
some exploring on his own account,
with the result that he. slipped off the
ford and landed in deep water. The
mare he plunged the further he got
into difficulties. He could not regain
his feet with his rider on his back,
and the treacherous current threw
both of them into a hole against a log
jam. The rider decided to cast off and
gain the bank along the massive truck
against which he was pinned. But
no sooner had he swung one foot
clear of the stirrup than the wicked
undertow dangle; him, twisted him
around and left him hanging by his
fingers to the end of the log,
Luckily, one of the party turned on
his horse and saw his friend's pred'ica-
went. In a flash he sprang `from hie
horse and began to walk rapidly along
the tree trunk, which plunged and
cracked under his weight.
"Look out! You'll have both of us
in!" the explorer yelled. But he came
073.
Just as the explorer's fingers slipped
another inch or so his companion
seized etre by the caller and began
to pull like grim death, but without
the slightest effect. -
"Now then!" he shouted, with a
savage tug that got the other man up
a little higher. At last the latter was
able to assist him and finally scramb-
led up, panting, on the logs.
Source of Mosquitoes.
The time to eliminate the mosquito
nuisance is right"now. It is folly to
wait until the hibernating. mosquitoes•
find suitable breeding places to deposit
their eggs and to continue their props
gation before organizing efforts to
combat them.
The whole matter of eliminating the
mostfuito is to prevent its develop-
went. The first wave of warm weath-
er favors the development of the
mosquito. It ie therefore considered
timely that every housekeeper who
desires to be free from this disease -
breeding and annoying pest make a
complete survey of the home in the
effort to remove, ail sources which
favor the development of the mes-
quite, The back yard should be
cleaned of all receptacles, barrels,
cans, bottles and other rubbish, which
may retain sufficient water to attract
the mosquito,
Clogged rainspouts, which cause -the
rainwater to accumulate on the roof
and, to become stagnant, should be
cleared and 'mended. Very often .a
more depression in the ground ,may
act as a receptacle far water in which
mosquito eggs may develop. In fact,
any object capable of holding water
may, during the spring and summer.
months, act as breeding places,
The uneuspec'ed flower -pot saucer
containing water is a fertile source of
mosquitoes in the home. The unused
wash pitcher and bowl containing just
enough water may account for the an-
noying -mosquito` in the bedroom.
Leaky pipes, clogged drainage, sinks
and the like are also insanitary condi-
tions which favor the mosquito de-
velopment.
