GETTING fHF HENS AFTER

"Poultry and eggs inset: could pay

Fred C Elford,. Supertnteu,'.; ut of the
poultry Division of the Dominion Ex

uses the following figures to prove
"Canada's net stational debt on Oct -
bur 31, 1018, was $,247,000,000,

hundred hens to every farm, ten hens

A good select hen will produce 200
eggs a year. But taking a low esti-
mate of ten dozen eggs a year (120)
for 110,000,000 hens, and we would
produce 1,100,000,000 dozen eggs a
year,
"At the present time we consume in
Canada twenty-three dozen• eggs per
head of populatibn per annum. We
could increase this allowance to 50
dozen, a -total of about. 350,000,000
dozen. We use less than 25,000,600
dozen of our eggs at the present time
for incubation. Suppose we Increase
this to 50,000,000 dozen. That would
total 400,000,000 dozen for. Canadian
consumption, a very liberal allowance.
We would then have left for export
700,0000,000 dozen at an average
price of say 40 cents per dozen. That
would bring $280,000,000 per year in-
to the country from eggs alone. The

STRENGTH OF THE SPIDER
Half -Inch Insect Catches a Two -Inch
Fish, Declares a Scientist.
The amazing strength of spiders is
shown in a number of well authenti-
cated instances. Thus we have an in-
stance of a half-inch spider catching
'e two-inch fish. It, was of the ground
or wolf family. A scientist came upon
it struggling with a fish on the edge
of a little pool. Its claws were buried
in the fish's tail: it had the tail out
of the water, but the head still re-
mained underneath. The spider
struggled to pull the fish up the bank,
and the fish struggled desparateif to
draw the spider into the pool. For
ten minutes the scientist watched this
silent and deadly tight. Then he
hurried away for a bottle in which
to put the combatants when he cap-
tured them. He was gone about half
an hour, and 011 his return the end
and come. The, fish was dead and t h
e
spider was slowly dragging its victim
away. New York Mail:

1. Lusting for the Flesh Pots of
Egypt (1.6:1.86).
1, )Murmuring against Moses and
Aaron (vv, 1-3).
As they journeyed from BIM] into
the great wilderness they became eon-
scions of the scarcity of some of the
things they hnd enjoyed even in Ipgyp-
tian slavery. Only a few days ago
they were singing God's praises for
their wondrous deliverance nt the lied
Sea (Ch. 15). Now nt the beginning
of their privation. they are murmur-
ing. They utterly lack spiritual per,
ception. They were a free people on
the way to their own land, \Yhnt slid
it matter, with such a prospect, though
they were a bit hungry?
This complaining showed a base in-
gratitude and was most dlshoeloring to
God. Unthankfuiness is n sign of
heart corruption (atom, 1:21).
2. God's answer to their murmur-
ings (vv. 4-12).
(1). Ise promised to rain bread from
heaven (vv. 4,45). His purpose in this
was to teach them that "man dolts not
ave by bread alone, but by every word
that proceedeth out of the month of
the Lord.” (Deut. 8:3). The manna
was given by God. but the people must
gather it. (2) De promised to give
them a vision of his glory (vv. 6-10).
This served as a warning and sn en-
couragement. Despite their murmur-
ings against him he invites them to
come near unto him, Wonderful grace
that sinful, ungrateful men should be
permitted to come near to God! (3)
0110811 and bread promised (vv, 11, 12).
God answered the cravings of the
people by giving them quails and mari-
na to eat. How gracious is our God !
II. •Quatls,ind Manna Given (16:13-15).
At the'.appointed time God gave the
Israelites the promised food. He first
allowed them to feel their need, to
show that man's highest need is to be-
lieve God and 'rely upon him for all
needs (Deut. 8:2, 3; Matt. 4:3, 4), He
then displayed his glory, showing that
be was able and willing to supply their
need if they would obey hint.

.2. Every man was to gather for him-
self (v. 18 et v. 20)..
The manna typified Christ (John 0:.
38, 51). As each man was to gather
for himself so each one must appro-
priate Christ for himself. •
3. The manna must be gathered
fresh every morning (v. 21).
This was to be done early, before
the sun was up, (theist, our manus,

thing In the day (John 6: 57).
4, They must not gather in excess of
oue day's supply (vv. 18, 20).
That which was In excess of the
day's supply became corrupt. Chris-
tians should make 1180 of the gifts be-
stowed by God. Goers graces are only
good when pat to 11Se.
5, The manna must be eaten to pre-
serve life.
They were in the wilderness, so
could only live by eating of the fond

of this world only those who feed
upon (hrist, the true manna, have
eternal life (John 6:50, 51).

WOODEN BICYCLE TIRES
An Invention In Holland That May
Make Up For Scarcity of Rubber
Dutch newspapers say. that a bicycle
dealer in the Province of Gelderland,
Holland, has invented a bicycle tire
made of elmwood, It is said to have
been tested satisfactorily on the clay
land gray.et roads of holland. If suc-
cessful the invention will be a great
boon to Holland. Probably no other
cduntry uses relatively so many bi-
cycles—nearly one million, or a bi-
cycle to every seven or eight people.
Rubber tires are now practicable un-
attainable.

Much sympathy was felt in this city

The shock to the nervous system
was so great that Mr. Dorsey was in
a pitiable condition for a. long tine.
Re was like a child in that he re-
quired hie mother's care nearly all

not stay atone and could not sleep
because of the weakened and excited

THAT MRMNWAPING
AFFAIR
:k a, 1,
(Continued trout last W>.:jc)
This had caused, ad open rupture lies
tween father and son, and the latter
had established (himself in a suite of
apartments at the Murray Hill.
Young Mal marine's course occa-
sloned great surprise; misty commend-
ed his wisdotn, but few gave him credit
fur the genuine sense of honor which
had actuated him,
"A neat little stroke of diplomacy,"
said one club -man to another, "and
worthy of Hugh Mainwaring himself!
There is no show for hien, anyway,
itnd it's spuds better policy to yield
the epint now, don't you see, thanto
light it out with that pig-headed father
of his,"
''Ile understands on which side his
bread is buttered, and don't you for-
get It, my dear boy," was the laugh-
ing rejoinder. "It's always best to
stand in with the winning side; he
won't lose anything on the long run,
and he knows it."
Such remarks od,asionally reached
young Mainwaring, slaking him ex-
ceedly indignai1,
"You may say, once and for all,"
he said to 11 reporter who was inter-
viewing 01111 in his apartments at the
Murray Hill, "that in withdrawing from
this contest I ant not currying favor
WW1 Harold Scott Mainwaring. He and
1 ,are the best of friends, but that fact
would not hinder ale from giving a fair
and square fight if there were the
slightest doubt as to the validity of his
claim. But there isn't; he has proved
his right, legally and morally, to the
property, and that's enough for me."
"But Mr. Ralph Mainwaring must
have some tenable ground for contest-
ing his claim," said the reporter, tenta-
tively, hoping to get some of the inside
facts of the case,
Young Mainwaring froze instantly.
"1 have nothing whatever to say, sir,
regarding' the governor's action in this
platter; any information you desire on
that point you will have to obtain from
hiss,"
The next development in the Main-
waring case was a report lo the effect
that the whereabouts of Harold W.
Mainwaring could not be ascertained,
and it was generally supposed among
his London associates that he had fol-
lowed his brother to America by the
next steamer. As this report was sup-
plemented by the further facts that
he was a man of no principle, heavily
involved in debt, and deeply 'incensed
at Ralph Mainwaring's success in se-
curing for his son the American estate
in which he himself had expected to
share, public speculation wits immed-
iately aroused in a new direction, and
"that Mainwaring affair" became the
absorbing topic, not alone at the clubs
and other places of masculine rendez-
vous, but at all social gatherings as
welt.
Regardingthe principal actors in
this drama, however, around whom
public interest really centred, little
could be definitely ascertained. To
many, who,on following morning,1mi1
SI
read he
details of ,the suicide at the
Wellington, it was a matter of no small
'wonder that the name of Harold Scott
litainwering, was not once mentioned
in connection with that of the wo-
man shown by the preceding's day's
testimony to have been so closely re.
fated to him. Perhaps no one was
mare surprised at this omission than
Merrick hiinseli, but if so, his only
comment was made mentally. •
"He's got the cinch oa them all
around, and he'll win. hands downt'r
The .inquest, held at an early hour,
was merely a matter of form, the
evidence of intentional suicide being
conclusive, and the interment, a few
hours later, was strictly private, Ex-
cepting, the ciergman who read the
burial service, there were present only
the' two sons of the wretched woman.
It • was their first meeting since
learning of the strange relationship
existins,5 between then, and Walter
LaGrange, as he entered the presence
of the dead, cast a curious glance,
half shrinking, half defiant, at the calm
sternface of 1•10u•old Mainwaring, who
had preceded hint. His own face was
haggard and drawn, and the hard, rigid
lines deepened as his glance fell for
an instant on the casket between them.
'I'lhen his eyes looked straight, into
those of I•larold Mainwaring with an
expression almost imploring,
1'Tell me," he demanded in low,
hoarse tones, "is it true that 1 am—
what she once said and what report
is now staying—the sol of Hugh Main-
waring?"
"It is true," the other replied,
gravely.
"Then curse them both." he ex-
claimed, while his hands clinched in-
voluntarily. "What right had they to
blight and ruin my life? What right
had they to live as they did, and let
the stigma, the shame, the curse of, 1
all fall on me? A. few, months sice
1 had the honor and respect of my
classmates and associates; to -day, not
one will recognize 1118, and for no fault
of minel"
"Hush." interposed Harold Main-
waring; "I know the wrong which
has been done you,—they have wrong-
ed ane, also, far more deeply than you
know, but this is no time or place to
recall it!"
The calmness and kindness of his
tones seemed to soothe and control
Ills excited companion.
"I know 'they have wronged you,"
the latter replied; "but they have not
ruined your You have not only
friends and wealth, but, more than all,
your father's .tame, 1," he added
'bitterly, "am 0 pauper, and worse
than a pauper, for 1 have not 5105 a
haslet"
For a few momenta Harold Main-
waring'silently studied the haggard
young face calfr05ting him, in which
anger was slowly giving place to dull
sullen despair; and his own heart was
sltdd:eltly moved with pity for the
boy

1. Lusting for the Flesh Pots of
Egypt (1.6:1.86).
1, )Murmuring against Moses and
Aaron (vv, 1-3).
As they journeyed from BIM] into
the great wilderness they became eon-
scions of the scarcity of some of the
things they hnd enjoyed even in Ipgyp-
tian slavery. Only a few days ago
they were singing God's praises for
their wondrous deliverance nt the lied
Sea (Ch. 15). Now nt the beginning
of their privation. they are murmur-
ing. They utterly lack spiritual per,
ception. They were a free people on
the way to their own land, \Yhnt slid
it matter, with such a prospect, though
they were a bit hungry?
This complaining showed a base in-
gratitude and was most dlshoeloring to
God. Unthankfuiness is n sign of
heart corruption (atom, 1:21).
2. God's answer to their murmur-
ings (vv. 4-12).
(1). Ise promised to rain bread from
heaven (vv. 4,45). His purpose in this
was to teach them that "man dolts not
ave by bread alone, but by every word
that proceedeth out of the month of
the Lord.” (Deut. 8:3). The manna
was given by God. but the people must
gather it. (2) De promised to give
them a vision of his glory (vv. 6-10).
This served as a warning and sn en-
couragement. Despite their murmur-
ings against him he invites them to
come near unto him, Wonderful grace
that sinful, ungrateful men should be
permitted to come near to God! (3)
0110811 and bread promised (vv, 11, 12).
God answered the cravings of the
people by giving them quails and mari-
na to eat. How gracious is our God !
II. •Quatls,ind Manna Given (16:13-15).
At the'.appointed time God gave the
Israelites the promised food. He first
allowed them to feel their need, to
show that man's highest need is to be-
lieve God and 'rely upon him for all
needs (Deut. 8:2, 3; Matt. 4:3, 4), He
then displayed his glory, showing that
be was able and willing to supply their
need if they would obey hint.

.2. Every man was to gather for him-
self (v. 18 et v. 20)..
The manna typified Christ (John 0:.
38, 51). As each man was to gather
for himself so each one must appro-
priate Christ for himself. •
3. The manna must be gathered
fresh every morning (v. 21).
This was to be done early, before
the sun was up, (theist, our manus,

4, They must not gather in excess of

That which was In excess of the
day's supply became corrupt. Chris-
tians should make 1180 of the gifts be-
stowed by God. Goers graces are only
good when pat to 11Se.
5, The manna must be eaten to pre-
serve life.
They were in the wilderness, so
could only live by eating of the fond

of this world only those who feed

eternal life (John 6:50, 51).

WOODEN BICYCLE TIRES
An Invention In Holland That May
Make Up For Scarcity of Rubber
Dutch newspapers say. that a bicycle
dealer in the Province of Gelderland,
Holland, has invented a bicycle tire
made of elmwood, It is said to have
been tested satisfactorily on the clay
land gray.et roads of holland. If suc-
cessful the invention will be a great
boon to Holland. Probably no other
cduntry uses relatively so many bi-
cycles—nearly one million, or a bi-
cycle to every seven or eight people.
Rubber tires are now practicable un-

Nerves Wrecked by Accident --
Was Afraid to Go in a Crowd
or to Stay Alone—Tells
Of His Cure.
Much sympathy was felt in this city
for Mr. Dorsey, who met with a dis-
tressing accident when his foot was
smashed in an elevator.
The shock to the nervous system
was so great that Mr. Dorsey was in
a pitiable condition for a. long tine.
Re was like a child in that he re-
quired hie mother's care nearly all
the time. He reared a crowd, could
not stay atone and could not sleep
because of the weakened and excited
condition of his nerves.
Detroit doctors did what they could
for him, but he could not getbaok•his

THAT MRMNWAPING
AFFAIR
:k a, 1,
(Continued trout last W>.:jc)
This had caused, ad open rupture lies
tween father and son, and the latter
had established (himself in a suite of
apartments at the Murray Hill.
Young Mal marine's course occa-
sloned great surprise; misty commend-
ed his wisdotn, but few gave him credit
fur the genuine sense of honor which
had actuated him,
"A neat little stroke of diplomacy,"
said one club -man to another, "and
worthy of Hugh Mainwaring himself!
There is no show for hien, anyway,
itnd it's spuds better policy to yield
the epint now, don't you see, thanto
light it out with that pig-headed father
of his,"
''Ile understands on which side his
bread is buttered, and don't you for-
get It, my dear boy," was the laugh-
ing rejoinder. "It's always best to
stand in with the winning side; he
won't lose anything on the long run,
and he knows it."
Such remarks od,asionally reached
young Mainwaring, slaking him ex-
ceedly indignai1,
"You may say, once and for all,"
he said to 11 reporter who was inter-
viewing 01111 in his apartments at the
Murray Hill, "that in withdrawing from
this contest I ant not currying favor
WW1 Harold Scott Mainwaring. He and
1 ,are the best of friends, but that fact
would not hinder ale from giving a fair
and square fight if there were the
slightest doubt as to the validity of his
claim. But there isn't; he has proved
his right, legally and morally, to the
property, and that's enough for me."
"But Mr. Ralph Mainwaring must
have some tenable ground for contest-
ing his claim," said the reporter, tenta-
tively, hoping to get some of the inside
facts of the case,
Young Mainwaring froze instantly.
"1 have nothing whatever to say, sir,
regarding' the governor's action in this
platter; any information you desire on
that point you will have to obtain from
hiss,"
The next development in the Main-
waring case was a report lo the effect
that the whereabouts of Harold W.
Mainwaring could not be ascertained,
and it was generally supposed among
his London associates that he had fol-
lowed his brother to America by the
next steamer. As this report was sup-
plemented by the further facts that
he was a man of no principle, heavily
involved in debt, and deeply 'incensed
at Ralph Mainwaring's success in se-
curing for his son the American estate
in which he himself had expected to
share, public speculation wits immed-
iately aroused in a new direction, and
"that Mainwaring affair" became the
absorbing topic, not alone at the clubs
and other places of masculine rendez-
vous, but at all social gatherings as
welt.
Regardingthe principal actors in
this drama, however, around whom
public interest really centred, little
could be definitely ascertained. To
many, who,on following morning,1mi1
SI
read he
details of ,the suicide at the
Wellington, it was a matter of no small
'wonder that the name of Harold Scott
litainwering, was not once mentioned
in connection with that of the wo-
man shown by the preceding's day's
testimony to have been so closely re.
fated to him. Perhaps no one was
mare surprised at this omission than
Merrick hiinseli, but if so, his only
comment was made mentally. •
"He's got the cinch oa them all
around, and he'll win. hands downt'r
The .inquest, held at an early hour,
was merely a matter of form, the
evidence of intentional suicide being
conclusive, and the interment, a few
hours later, was strictly private, Ex-
cepting, the ciergman who read the
burial service, there were present only
the' two sons of the wretched woman.
It • was their first meeting since
learning of the strange relationship
existins,5 between then, and Walter
LaGrange, as he entered the presence
of the dead, cast a curious glance,
half shrinking, half defiant, at the calm
sternface of 1•10u•old Mainwaring, who
had preceded hint. His own face was
haggard and drawn, and the hard, rigid
lines deepened as his glance fell for
an instant on the casket between them.
'I'lhen his eyes looked straight, into
those of I•larold Mainwaring with an
expression almost imploring,
1'Tell me," he demanded in low,
hoarse tones, "is it true that 1 am—
what she once said and what report
is now staying—the sol of Hugh Main-
waring?"
"It is true," the other replied,
gravely.
"Then curse them both." he ex-
claimed, while his hands clinched in-
voluntarily. "What right had they to
blight and ruin my life? What right
had they to live as they did, and let
the stigma, the shame, the curse of, 1
all fall on me? A. few, months sice
1 had the honor and respect of my
classmates and associates; to -day, not
one will recognize 1118, and for no fault
of minel"
"Hush." interposed Harold Main-
waring; "I know the wrong which
has been done you,—they have wrong-
ed ane, also, far more deeply than you
know, but this is no time or place to
recall it!"
The calmness and kindness of his
tones seemed to soothe and control
Ills excited companion.
"I know 'they have wronged you,"
the latter replied; "but they have not
ruined your You have not only
friends and wealth, but, more than all,
your father's .tame, 1," he added
'bitterly, "am 0 pauper, and worse
than a pauper, for 1 have not 5105 a
haslet"
For a few momenta Harold Main-
waring'silently studied the haggard
young face calfr05ting him, in which
anger was slowly giving place to dull
sullen despair; and his own heart was
sltdd:eltly moved with pity for the
