INCUBATORS
Now is the time to order your Prairie
State incubators. Why depend on the
uncertain old hen for hatching when
an Incubator will do the work better
and cheaper? Get your chickens
hatched early and get the big price for
broilers. The early pullets will be
your next winter's layers. Get an In-
cubator and hatch your chicks when
you please.

OUR NEW SERIAL STORY ,
THE TRUE LAVE OF AARON BURR.
by Louise Kennedy Mable
' (Continued from last week)
The party, drew nearer, and one of
them held high a lantern, Isaac was•
prominent upon the box, gasping and
rolling his eyes, The "red devils" were

'Please, Mister British; -let me goi

Girls upon the threshold of women -
hood often drift into a decline in spite
of all care and attention. How often
one sees girls who have been strong
and lively become suddenly weak, de-
pressed, irritable and listless. It is
the dawn of womanhood—a crisis in
the life of every girl—and prompt mea-
sures should be taken to keep the
bloodure and rich with the red tint
of health. If the blood is not healthy
at this critical stage the body is weak-
ened and grave disorders follow. Dr.
Williams Pink Pills have saved thou -
ands of young girls from what might
have been lifelong invalidism] or an
early death. They are a blood -builder
of unequalled richness, strengthening
weak nerves and producing a liberal
suply of red, healthy blood which every
girl needs to sustain her strength. Dr.
Williams Pink Pills have proved their
great value over and over again to
young
Miss A. whose
Sternberhealth H as le'bur
Road, New Liskeard, Ont., says —' I
have much reason to be grateful to Dr.
Williams'Pink Pills as they restored
nee to health, if indeed, they did not
save my life. In 1914 1 began to feel
run down, and the doctor who was
called in said that mine was a bad
case of anaemia. 1 lost flesh, always
felt tired, and 1 got so nervous that I
could scarcely hold a cup to take a
drink. My heart would flutter alarm-
ingly. The doctor did not seem to be
able to help ane, at all and my family
and friends ale thought that 1 was in a
decline and could not recover. I was
in bed for some weeks when an aunt
sane to see me and urged that 1 try
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. My father
got a supply, and by the time 1 had
taken three boxes there was a notice-
able improvement, and from that on
1 steadily progressed toward recovery.
I continued using the pills for some
time longer, and they restored me to
my old time health and strength. 1
shall never cease to praise this medi-
cine, and to urge all weak run down
girls to give it a fair trial as l have
proved in my own case their great
merit."
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold by
all dealers in medicine, or you can get
them by mail at 50 cents a box or six
boxes for 1$2,50 from The Dr, Williams

"What can I do for you, gentle-
men?" went on Mistress Prevost
calmly, never blinking in the glare of
the lantern. "Why are you stopping
about my carriage?"
"Two of 'em," broke out Hoarse
Voice, "and a boy. Both of 'em beau-
ties, or l'm'a Frenchy."
"1 won the pot o' beer," put in the'
drunken voice.
"Ye liel" The fierceness of the tone
reduced the claimant to silence.
It was a party oftseven, the horses
loaded with plunder. One man was just
visible overa hugefeather-bed; another
playfully sported a woman's bonnet, his
arms filled with clothing. The drunken
man carried a goose under one arm,
and just now wiped his tears upon it,
much to its hissing indignation. All but
the leader were loaded down, their uni
forms mud -caked, their beasts fagged,
A successful scouting party, upon the
face of it
Suddenly a new force came upon the
scene. The small boy spoke.
"Go away from my mother, big, dirty
redcoats!" One cried, eyes flashing de-
fiance, and then, manhood proven, hid
his face in his mother's sleeve.
There was a laugh from the men that
was half a snarl.
"Ho, ho, my young rooster!" called
Hoarse Voice. "Ye crow like a bloody
rebel. Let's have a look at ye!"
He got down from his horse and put
a dirty hand in at the window. Mis-
tress Prevost spoke quickly. •
"Do not dare to touch Minn!"
Her face was white as the drift of her
powdered hair, and her eyes twin dan-
ger signals. The man drew back a step
at the look she blazed upon him, but a
laugh from the trooper in the woman's
bonnet enraged him. !-1e put out his
hand again.
"Come out o' that, ye young rebel,"
he cried roughly.
"You will regret any harm you do,
us," cried the lady. "We are not rebels.
1 an the widow of a British officer, who
died serving his king in the Indies.
This is his child. We have powerful
friends. 1 warn youl"
At another moment her earnestness
might have carried conviction, but to
these men, swelled with pride at their
undisturbed plundering, crazed by the
applejack imbibed at the last farmhouse
—to these thieves and cut-throats, who
found their evil opportunity ready made
in the ravaged country near New York,
it was no more than the rustle of the
autumn wind in the leaves. They did
not listen.
"You young rips Let's see if ye can
dance to the tune of 'Little Billy Whip
Lash."
He made a dive for the child. The
mother clenched her small fist, and as
the man leaned across her, struck him
furiously in the face. He turned and
caught her wrist.
"So, my lady," he muttered, "ye'll
strike me, no less? I've changed my
mind. Ye'll both come outl"
"You brute!" she panted with a sob.
"You beast!"
He was pulling at the door, and got
it open. With a jerk of her wrist he
dragged her down the steps. The boy
was weeping bitterly.
"Sawyer, pull out the bratl"
Isaac prayed loudly upon the box seat
until a soldier cuffed him into silence.
Sawyer advanced upon the coach, but
stopped near the steps and hesitated. A
girl stoodupon the top step, her whip
ready.
"Corrie a little nearer," she said to
the man. "I'd like to lay your cheek
well open Truly, brave English sol -4
diers you are, to wage war upon two
women and a childt Your king world be
proud ,of you. When we report your
conduct at headquarters they will re-
ward you handsomely—seven men
against two women and a child!"
"Stop her mouthl" shouted Hoarse
Voice, and Sawyer bent his head and
made a rush, two others at his heels.
Quick as he was, the whip came down,
and a red wale showed on his cheek.She
lashed him again, and once again, be-
fore they jerked the whip away. One
man plucked the boy out.
"Now we will have a little dancing,"
said Hoarse Voice, and the mother cov-
ered her eyes.

uttering no sound, Mistress Prevost
stretched out her Arris to him, teats

LEND A HAND.
Will you lend a hand in aiding the
Horticultural Society to make good
the appellation—"Beautiful Clinton?"
This may be done by tidying up your
own premises, using the paint brush,
and last but not least, arranging a small
lawn, a flower bed and planting a climb-
ing vine. With every citizen "on the
job" the task will be easy. Join the
Horticultural Society and secure a sup-
ply of bulbs and seeds at bargain prices.
Hand your name to any of the officers
who will attend to the matter. Now is
the time to get ready for Spring.

iT se with the reflecting telescope
that many of the most brilliant
discoveries about stars are made.
lits construction, however, is not so
,generally understood as that of the
refracting telescope, the form of in-
strument which is so often seen in
the parks or on the streets of our
cities and through which the passer-
by can get a peep at the moon for the
trifling sum of five or ten cents.
The lens at the upper end of a re-
fracting telescope le called the object
glass. It oolleots the rays of light
and brings themtogether at a focus
to farm an image, which Is viewed
with a magnifying eyepiece. The
largest refracting telescope is the
well-known Terkel instrumcatt. 7l
utas an object glass forty inches es
diameter.
But the biggest refecting teieseopo
in the world bolongs to Canada. Thin
has been erected at Victoria, B.L.
,
which le only a short jonrnee from
Vancouver by 0. P. R. steamers. In
e reflecting telescope, the light le
collected by reflection from the stir -
:Moe of a concave mirror. If tele
surface is ground to a parabolic
taupe, the rays will all come t0•
gather at a single point to forts an
budge, filet as with the retracting
ielosoope; but this point will be situ
entail on the same gide of the mirror
ss the obleet Inial lienee the ohnerval
who tries to look at a star will find
his head in hie own line of vision.
in order to overcome this difficulty,
a second reflection is made to tate
place so its to deflect the beam of
light and form the Image at one side
cf the tubo, where 1t may easily be
examined with an eyepiece. this
second reflection is acrontpllshed by
means of a plane mirrot' or "flat" in-
serted In the upper end of the tube
and sot at an angle of 470. This tint
will necessarily cut off sane of the
light falling upon the principal nate-
rot, but since It is not large and
since its supports are made 5s slen-
der as possible, there is no serious
loss.
