keeping Daughter en the Farm.
ie Probably no exaggeration to
say that half of the automobiles on
farms, in Ontario are there in the
first instance becauee the farmer's
sons wantd them or actually demand-
ed them as their price for staying on
the farm,
Jus as good wages as they could
get e/seivhere or a share in the farm
profits, plus the automobile, are some
of the things ;that are being given
newadays to make farmers' sons
willing and content to remain on the
,•* farm. This is only right. But—is
anything like as much attention being
given to keep the girls contented?
In every town in the rich agricul-
tural sections, daughters of well-to-do
farmers are engaged in domestic ser-
vite. Their parasite in most 'instances
object.strenuousIy to their daughters
working out in this way. The daugh-
ters, if .the truth were known, do not
particularly 'fancy doinestic service.
They would rather earn in some
other way, yet housework is all they
have had experience in. Then the
day comes when "they get so tired
of sticking at home on the farm and
not having any money.
"Ws certainly queer," said a town
woman to me recently in talking of
her new helper; "to think of Mary
being oui' mid. Her father could
buy and sell hs a half dozen times.
They have a lovely farm -home but
she'd rather work out than stay at
home" •
Why? Could not he as well as
her brother have been made willing
to stay on the farm? There is a farm-
er's daughter in Mary's own neigh-
borhood who is happy all the day
long in being a farm girl. Her par-
ents have no more of this world's
goods than Mary's, possibly not so
much. What then is the difference?
The difference is this other girl was
sent to aelIege, the agricultural col-
lege by her own chcice, and while,
there had suitable clothes and neces-
sary spending money. Now that she
hes grsicluated she is putting hex
training into practice at home on the
farm. She takes charge of the gar-
den and poultry and the lawn.. For
this work and- the additional house-
work else does, she draws a weekly
pay cheque just as her brother does.
She has a car at her disposal and
takes the cream and eggs to town
and does the marketing, Afternoons
'and evenings, when it is pleasant, she
es often out for a drive with mother
and sfriends. They go to the movies,
lectures, concerts.
"Would you rather live in town
than in the country?" I asked this
girl,
"I should say not," was her quick
answer. "I have everything at home
that 1 could have in town, and a lot
more besides, I love the farm!" The
farm is the centre 'of the universe to
her but it is not also the circumfer-
ence. Farm economy has taken into
accenther right to training for
labor and compensation for work.
She doesn't covet the pleasures and
opportunities of town girls for she
has theni plus the freedom and beauty
of her country home.
Beware Patent Pills.
The oft repeated warning must
again ring out! Beware of the so-
called "patent" medicine pills!
According to a report in se recent
issue of a western paper, a little four-
year-old girl died on Wednesday,
March 19th, after eating some of
these .pills with a very seductive
name, The paper states that the doc-
tor who conducted the post mortem,
declassed that the pills "contained
etrychnine, belladonna and aloin,
which were all a vegetable origin
and he imagined a few taken would
cause serious trouble in a young
child". The coroner, "expressed the
opinion that the advertising on the
boxes was desperately misleading.
They might be, very good pill for
purgative purposes, but they were
fixed up so nicely that children would
eat thein readily, and a number of
inquests had been held over children
Who had done so, The 'coroner stated
that "juries had passed recommenda-
tions urging that regulations should

A reconintendation such as the fore-
going is but reasonable and is simply

tions containing "poisons" are so

more than usual trouble with flied

is correct, no chane should be takee.

conditions. Such conditione 'exist
where rubbish, filth and manure are
left unprdteeted so Oust flies may
lay their eggs therein, Consequently,
the fleet principle in exterminating
the pots is rigid cleanliness and then
more cleanliness, The fly avoids elean-
ly conditions as men avoid the plague.
Diet and` disorder are its natural
habitat. It is of prime importance
that every individual and every com-
mnnity should see,thet the winter's
accumulation of dirt and rubbish
should be carefully collected and de-
stroyed. Manure should be so handl-
ed, either in fly -proof pits, or bins
with maggot traps, as to prevent
flies breeding. It is important also
that garbage be carefully gathered
and disposed if, for it, too, provides
sanctuary for flies.
In addition to combatting them in
their breeding places, flies should be
killed by any and every means avail-
able, especially early in the season.
Further, it is essential that food
products be kept properly screened
from flies. Civic authorities should
insist on shopkeepers so protecting
their wares and endeavor by every
possible means to have householders

begin is now. Fax snore sell be ec-

Begin
in Childhood.
There are men and women who
have risen from obscure 'homes, to
positions of responsibility where ease
of manner is. essential, Yet if not
taught in their childhood, where can
people learn the simple act of being
well-mannered? Refinement is inborn
in some; but if one does not possess
naturally a gracious and graceful
manner—not an elaborate one, for
good manners are simple and sincere
—it should be taught in childhood
until'it becomes second nature. Many
a successful business man wakes to
his need of the "know how" that puts
him at ease in social company,' and
he longs for that which should be-
long to hint either by birth or educa-
tion. If the home is not fitted to
produce this "fine flower of courtesy,"
schools should be supplied with text-
books on. good manners, and teachers
should be able to Anterpret them.

CHAPTDR VI1L—(Conlici,)
"You'll come again, of couree" the
th
faer said as he held out his 'hand.
For the first time that evening thee
was a touch of constraint in his man-
ner, "SupPose you come to dinner--
Senday, Will you?"
"Surely 1 will, and be glad--"
With a swift surge of embarrassed
coldr Burke Denby stopped short. In
PIM shamed, shocked instant it had
come to hisn that he hail forgotten
Helen—forgotten her! Not for a
long hour bad he remembered that
there was such a person in existence.
"Er—ah—that% in,' he began stem-
„..
movingly.
An odd expression 'crossed John
Denby's countenance,
"You will, of course,bring your
wife," he said. .4'Good-night."
Berke mumbled an incoherent
something and fled. The neicrino-
ment he found himself in the hall
with Benton, deferential and solici-
tous, holding his coat.
Again out in the crisp night air,
Burke drew a long breath. Was it
true? Had dad invited him to din-
ner- next Sunday? 'And With Helen?
What had ha.ppenecl? Had dad's
heart got the better of his pride?
Had he decided that qdareeling did
not.pay? Did this mean the begin-
ning of the end? Was he ready to
take his son back into his heart?
He had 'not said anything, really.
He had just talked in the usual way,
as if nothing had happened. But
that would be like dad. Dad hated
scenes. Dad would never say: "I'm
sorry I was so harsh with you; come
back—you and Helen. I went you!"
—and then fall to crying and kissing
like a woman. Dad would never do
that.
It would be like dad just to pick
up the thread of the old comradeship
exactly Where he had dropped it
months ago. And that was what he
had. seemed to be doing that evening.
He had talked just as he used to talk
—except that never once had he men-
tioned—m'other. Burke remembered
this now, and wondered et it. It was
so unusual—in dad. Had he done it
purposely? Was there -a hidden
meaning baek of it? He himself
had not liked to think of mother,
lately; yet, soritehow: she seemed al-
ways to be in his mind. In spite of
himself. he was always wondering
what she would think of—Helen. But,
surely, dad—
With his thoughts in a dizzy whirl.
of excitement and questionings,
&nice thrust his key into the lock
and let himself into his own apart-
ment.
The hall—never had it looked so
hopelessly cheap and small. Burke,
1 still under the spell of Benton's min-
istrations, jerked off his hat and coat
and hung them up, Then he strode
into the living room.
Helen, fully dressed, was sitting
at the table, reading a magazine.
"Hullo! Sitting.. up, are you,
chicken ?" he greeted her, brushing
her cheeks with his lips. "I toldyou
not to; but maybe it's just as well
you did—I might have ,:waked you,"
he laughed, boyishly. "Guess what's
happened!"
"Got a raise?" Helen's voice was
eager.
Her husband frowned.
"No. I got one last month, you
know. "I'm getting a hundred now.
What more on you expect—us my
position?" He spoke coldly, with a
tinge of sharpness. He was wonder-
ing why Helen always managed to
take the zest out of anything he was
going to do, or say. Then, with an
'obvious effort -at gayety, he went on:
"It's better than a raise, chicken,
Dad's invited us to 'dinner next Sun-
day—both of us."
"To dinner! Only to dinner?"
"Only to dinner! Great Caesar,
Helen—only to dinner!" '
"Well, I can't help it, Burke. 15
just makes me mad to see you jump
and run and be sn pleased,ovet just
a dinner, when it ought 'to be for
every dinner and all' the tittle; and
you know it."
"But, Helen, it isn't the dinner. It's
that—that dad cares." The man's
voice softened, and became not quite
steady, ."That maybe he's forgiven
me. That he's going, to be now the
—the old dad that I' used to know.
Oh, Hehen, I've missed him sol I've,
But his wife'inieirusited"tartly.
"Well, I should 'think it. was time
he did forgive you—and I'm not say-
ing I think there was anything to
fotgive, either. There wbialdn't have
been, if he hadn't tried to interfere,
with what was your own business—
yours an mine."
There was a brief silence. Burke,
looking very white and stern, had got
to his feet, and was moving restlessly'
about the room.
"Did you think he was giving in?"
asked Helen at last.
"He was very kind,"
"What did you tell him?"
"What do you 01500?"
"About the dinner, Sunday."
"I don't know, exactly, 1 said—
eonsething; yes. I think, I meant it
for yes—then." The tnan spoke with
sudden utter eveariness.
There was another brief silence. A
dawning shrewdness was coming into
Helen's eyes,
"Ola of course, yes. We'd Want to
go," she murmured. "It might mean '
he. was giving in, couldn't it?"
There was no reply,
"Do you think he wag giving in?"
55111 no reply.
Helen scowled.
"Burke, why in the World don't you
answer me?" she demanded crossly,
"Yon were talkative enough a minute
ago, when you came in. I should
think youemight have entmgli thought
of my interests to went u to go to
live with your father if diens 's any
chance of it. And Wile '5 wouldn't
be my way to jump the minute he
held out his hand, yet if this dinner
really means that we'll be going up
there to live pretty soon, why--"
"Helen!" Burke had winced vielbly,
as if from a blow. "Can't you eel)
anything, or talk anythingk bus our
for me that dad just looked at rAe
to -night Wier the old look in his
eyes; that sontefier hole smashed
that confounded Wall between us;

"Nonsense, Burke! Don't be silly.
05 000050 We're going! 1 Weuldn't
tines it for the world—tIndei! the c,ir-
curnstauces." And Mien. with an
air of finality, rose to ' her'feet to
1 uttorhusband,
f°rbed, looking after her
with eyes that were half resigned,
half rebellious, for the eecond time
that evening gave a sigh of utter
wea•Sifiess, and turned Way. --
They went to the dinner, Helen
beearne really very interested and
enthusiastic% in her preparationfor
15; and even Berke, after a time,
seemed to regain a little of his eld
eagerness, They had, to be sera,
nearly a quarrel over the OM and
hat that Helen -wished to wear, But
after some argument, and not a few
tears, she yielded to her husband's

"Exactly! So do 7 want you to,"
returned her husband significantly,
And there the matter ended,
It was not a euccess—that dinner,
Helen, intent on making her "good
impression," veryplainly tried to be
achinring, entertaining, and solicitous
of her host's welfare and happiness.
She resulted in being nauseatingly
flattering, pert, and inquisitive. John
Denby, at fleet very evidently deter -
Mined to give no just cause for criti-
cism of his own behavior, was the
perfection of courtesy and orchality.
Even when, later, he was unable quite
to hide his annoyance at the persist-
ent and assiduous attentions and
questions of Isis daughter-in-law, he
was yet courteous, though in unmis-
takable retreat.
Burke Denby—poor Burke! With
every sense and sensitiveness keyed
to instant response to each tone and
word and gesture of the two before
him, each passing minute was, to
Burke, but a greater torture than the
one preceding it. Long before dinner
was over, he _wished hieself ' and
Helen at home; and as soon as was
decently possible after the meal, he
peremptorily suggested departure.

ALLENBY AND PALESTINE.
How Ancient Prophecy Is Being Ful.
filled To.day In Holy Land.
The first time I saw Gen. Allenby,
*rites Mr. J. H. Finley, was at Gener-
al Headquarters, when I had driven
but from Jerusalem with one of mg
Bed Cross associates to spend the
night with the "Chief," as he is called
by his officers and mese I soon for-
got, in the warmth of the reception,
that my host WAS a general. When
we let the dinner table we took up
George Adam Smith's Geography of
the Holy Land, and later read the
thirty4ourth chapter of the Book or
Total, in which the utter destruction
of this land—once) the Land of Pro-
mise—was prophesied, when the
streams should, be "turned into pitch,"
when thorns should "come up in her
palaces, nettles and brambles in the
fortresses thereof,"
I asked Gen, Allenby whether the
"Pelican and the porcupine" were
actually to be foiled there; what the
"arrowsnake" was, and the "night -
monster"; what sort of cry the
"satyr" made in calling to his fellow;
Whether "ostriches" still held court
in the land, and jackals still "made it
their habitation." I discovered that
he knew the fauna of this prophecy of
desolation, and that he supported by
a Bible dictionary his own theories as
to the identity et these creatures, the
names of which varied in the different
versions. It was not many nights
later that, within five miles ot the
place where we sat reading this chap-
ter in Isaiah, I hefted the mournful,
halt -human cry 05 the jackals, giving
literal confirmation of the prophecy.
I read on into the thirty-ilfth chap-
ter—the chapter of the prophecy of
the Freat restoration, which was seem-
ingly coming to pass. In the habita-
tion of the jackals grass was begin-
ning to grow -again; "glowing sands"
had become pools. Waters had liter-
ally broken out In the wilderness and
streabs 151 the desert. All the way up
from Egypt, nearly one hundred and
fifty miles, has the water of the Nile
been led to break.forth in the Places
of desolation.
There is au Arab legend that I heard
often In the East; that not until the
Nile flowed into Palestine would the
Turk be driven out ot Jeruealem—a
picturesque way of saying that the
Turk -would starforeveis But the Nile
now flows—into Palestine, not .meta-
Phorically, but literally. I have seen
the plant at kantarra where the sweet
water or the Nile Is filtered and start-
ed on its Journey through a twelve -
inch pipe aeros the desert toward.
Gaza. The mound of sand thet pro.;
teats it le visible a few yards from the
railway all the way from Suoz to the
edge of Palestine. And the Turk has
been driven from 'Jerusalem by the
same Antes that caused 5110' water of
the Nile to flow into Palestine.

actly allkes but one among them is
not allowed to pass the sentries, who
recognize him as an ene5113'. The
sense by which they detect him, ac-
cording to Dr. N. E. Mande°, whose
book, Recognition Among Insects, has
been published recently by the Smith-
sonian Institution, is not sight but
smell.
In the course of his studies the man
of science has trained his ease until
he MIL recognize the three castes of
bees—queens, drosses and workers—
merely by their odor. His experiments
show that the bees themselves recog-
nize one another by individual odors,
and use the sense of smell for as many
Purposes as human beings use eyes
and ears. Worker bees, Ise says, re-
turning to the hives from the fields,
pass the guards unmolested, because
they carry the proper sign, although
the hive odor they convey is fainter
than when they left the hive, and is
also to a very large degree masked by
the odors of the nectar and the pollee
with which they have loaded thew
selves.
