WEARIN' 0' THE GREEN
Origin of Shamrock Wearing )n Honor
St. Patrick
Few who put a sprig of shamrock
in. their buttonhole on the seventeenth
of March realize that these little
green leaves more than once kept the
Irish from death in dire famine times.
In 1596 the poet Spencer declares that
the war has brought the miserable
inhabitants of Munster to a point
'where they "flock to a plot of water.
creases or shamrocks as to a fez t."
In his "View of Ireland" he describes
this as the depth of 'ruin to which
a land formerly )raving ;.bundant corn
and cattle had been plunged. Tile
troublous timeg centinned _end the
shamrock is Mentioned- are an arttere,
of food again and again. Fynes Mor-
rison in 1598 writes that the herb is
still being "snatched out of the ditches
for food."
Not until later was the shamrock
used as the national emblem of Erin.
Nathaniel Colgan. member of the
Royal Irish Academy says the earliest
record of the wearing "o' the green"
is contained in the diary of Thomas
Dinoly, who wrote in 1687: "17th day
of March yearly is St. Patrick, an
immoveable feast, when the Irish of
all stations and conditions wear cros-
ses in their hats, some of pins, some
of green ribbon, and the vulgar super-
stitiously wear sham.agues, three -
leaved grass which they likewise eat
(they say to cause a sweet breath),"

Should Classify Criminals,
Dean Clarke, superintendent of the
Toronto General hospital, delivered
a efeyer address to the Royal Cana-
dian Inatitiite, recently in the Physics
bullding'of Toronto University. Lec-
turing on the care and treatment of
the Criminal, he said that the,meth-
ods Of. ascertaining the mentality of
criminate are very inadequate at pre-
sent Instead of undergoing a`medi-
cal examination to determine the
state of insanity, the fate of the
'Criminal a ascertained after a legal
light between the two attorneys. The
crime `and` not the criminal reeelves
,the most attention from the court.
Canada is a century behind the time
in eriplipologe; srhe has welcomed all
kinds of immigrants with ';open
arms, but after the' war her eyes will
lee opened. Criminology will become
an important study, and the court
will reallze that criminals must be
examined; then' punished or treated
according to the 'classification. There
are moral imbeciles, instinctive, oc-
casionel, habitual, and accidental
briniinals. Each one is distinctly dif-
ferent from the other classes. After
the law finally is brought to its
senses these degenerates will receive
special treatment in proper institutes
and sanatoriums.

With g ,a
the Icing queen and all
their pompous retinue, and the chief
"ptains and principal men of the city
(74y 23), this was probably one of
Paul's 'greatest opportunities to tell to
earth's great ones the wondrous story
of redeeming grace.. Fiestas, having
had Paul brought in before this great,
gathering, said to the 'king and all.
present that, although the Jews were
demanding his life, he had not been
able to Lind that he had committed
anything worthy of death, but that.
having appealed to Caesar, he was go-
ing to send bim to home, though he
could not signify any crime that he had
been guilty of, but he hoped that after
Agrippa had heard him and examined
him he might have something definite
to write.
The king, having given Paul permis-
sion to speak for himself, he began by
saying that he was happy to be per-
mitted to state his case before the
king because he knew him to be ex-
pert in all customs and questions
among the Jews. He therefore asked
to be heard patiently (verses 1-3).
With a word concerning his early life
at Jerusalem and his being brought up
a Pharisee and well known to all the
Jews, he said tfiat the accusation
against him was thathehad become a
follower of Jesus, risen from the dead
and corning again to restore the king-
dom to 'Israel, according to all the
pronelses made by God through the
prophets to the fathers (verses 4-8)
We hope to consider or refer to some
of these later in this lesson. He theu
confessed that, like the Jews who were
now persecuting him. he had himself
been also a persecutor of the followers
of Jesus of Nazareth, under the au -
thorny of the chief priests and a very
cruel one, even going to distant cities
to arrest them (verses 0-11). Then he
told of his experience on the way to
Damascus and of his commission from
the risen and ascended Christ and of
his subsequent obedieuce to 111is com-
mission up to that day (verses 12.23).
We may be sure that epeli an assem•
blage never heard such a testimony bee
fore. and we can only hope that some
of those who heard became followers
of Jesus es Paul„ prayed that they
might (verse 29). 10081ls certainly
heard more about the "One Jesus"
(xxv, 19) than be knew before, but he
had no use for such talk and told Paul
that he was read nnd beside himself
(verse 24). It was not pleasant to be
told so publicly, but this also was fel-
lowship with the Lord Jesus, for they
said of Him, "Fie hath a devil and is
mad; why bear ye Hite? (John x,
20.) Long ago it was sitid of the serv-
ants of the ]cord, "'rhe prophet is a
fool; the spiritual man is mad (Boa
Lc, 7), and the wisdoin of tilt; world 18
still of the sante mind:
1t Is possible that some 1n the ossein
bly thought Paul to be more sane than
!testes. and it looks as if the king was
inclined to that opinion (verse 28). The
revised version reads. "With but little
persuasion thou would'st fain make
me a Christian." and Paul's heart went
out to God in great desire, that not
only Agrippa, but all who beard him
speak, might become Christians, or, as
he put it, "almost and altogether such
as I am, except these bonds". (verse
29). The king and governor and others
having gone aside to consult, their de-
cision was that Peal had done nothing
worthy of death or of bonds, and that
!f he had not appealed unto Caesar he
(night have beau set at liberty (verses
30-32). But with such fanatical sews
about, who were determined to kill
him, liberty would probably have
meant death to him, and we know
from the Lord's night message that it
was in the plan for Ititn to go to home

Jesus, .at the time of his i•ouversion,
which is a little more full !fere than

YOU ARE NERVOUS
The nervous system is the alarm system
of the human body. is
La perfect health we hardly realize that
we have a network of nerves, but when
health is ebbing, wnl strength is declin-
ing, the oldie aervous system gives the
alarm in headatihes, tiredness, dreamful
sleep, irritability Lead unbolt esereited,
leads straight to a breakdown. t
To correct nervousness, Scott's Emul-

rich nutriment gets into the blood and
rich blood feeds the tiny nerve -cella while
the whole system responds to its refresh-

GOT DIARRHOEA
FROM DRINKING
BAD, WATER.
People moving from one place to an-
other are very subject to diarrhoea on
account of the change of water, changee of
climate,, change of diet, etc„ and what at
first appears to be but a slight looseness
of the bowels should never be neglected
or some serious bowel complaint will
be sure to follow.
The safest and quickest cure for diarr-
hoea, dysentery, colic, cholera, cholera
morbus, cholera infantum, pains in the
stomach and all looseness of the bowels
is Dr. Powler's Extract of Wild Straw-
berry.
Mr. Ernest Jeffery, Moose Jaw, Sask.,
writes: "A few years ago, when I first
came out to Canada, I went to the liar.
vest field to work. Somehow or other
the water did not agree with me. I had
the darrhoea so bad that blood was
coming from me, and I thought my last
days had come. One of the harvest
hands advised me to take Dr. Fowler's
Extract of Wild Strawberry, and before
'had used the bottle I was able to go to
work again. My advice to all is always
keep a bottle of this wonderful diarrhoea
cure on hand."
'"Dr. Fowler's" has been on the market
for the past seventy years, and has been
used in thousands of Canadian homes
during that time, and we have yet to
hear of a case of bowel complaint where
it has not given perfect satisfaction.

"A Bad Speculation."
There are penitents and penitents.
Some are sorry that they did wrong;
others regret the unpleasant conse•
quences of their evil deeds. Governor
Barbour of Virginia once defended a
man charged with steeling a pair of
shoes. The man was convicted. One
day, years after, the governor was
standing conversing with several law-
yers in front' of the courthouse when
a man approached and said he wished
to speak with him. They walked off
together, and the man asked:
"Squire, do yon remember I once
hired yon to defend me?"
1iYes .,
"Well, squire, the taking of them
shoes was the worst job I ever did. I
didn't keep 'em a week. They put me
in jail. I gave you the only horse 1
had to defend me. My crop was lost
'cause 1 couldn't see to it, and then,
squire, they gage me thirty-nine lashes
at last. I tell, you, squire, it was n
bad speculation."—Youth's Companion.
The Conductor'sRevenge.
A well dressed man entered an Or-
ange street car the other day, accord-
ing to a story that is going the rounds
of the street ear men, and handed the
conductor a ten dollar bill. The con-
ductor was unable to change it, and
he let the man ride free. The pend,
day the man presented the sane bill,
and again the conductor was unable
to change it, for the mad had evident-
ly found a time .wtztn be would be

much chang:.
"f'lr fix yoy" thought the conductor,
and he obluned $10 worth of nickels
and was reaty for tete man when next
day be flasled the bill. The piantook
the matter toed naturedly and soon
left the car,'ais pockets fairly bulging
with the nic.els.
The condy'otor was more than pleas-
ed with hiscoup until next day, when
he learned, bat the bill was worthless.

Although frequently confused,
especially in the south and in the
middle west, blueberries and huckle-
berries are quite distinct. In some
districts the name "huckleberry" is
restricted to berries which contain
ten large seeds, with bony coverings
like minute peach pits which crackle
between the teeth, while the name
"blueberry" is applied to various
species of berries containing many,

BERRY HYBRIDS.
but very small, seeds. It is the
latter, not the large seeded huckle-
berry, which offers possibilities for
profitable culture.
At the present stage of the blue-
berry industry it is best to begin by
transplanting the most promising
wild bushes, selecting them for the
size, flavor, color, and earliness of
the berry as well as for the vigor and
productiveness of the bush. These
plants can be propagated in various
ways. The aim of the cultivator
should be to secure bushes which will
produce large berries, These cost
less to pick than small ones and
bring a higher price on the market.
The three fundamental require-
ments for successful blueberry cul-
ture are: First, an acid soil, espe-
cially one composed of peat and
sand; second, good drainage and
thorough aeration of the surface soil,
and, third, permanent but moderate
soil moisture. Next in importance to
these essentials is a location such
that the berries may reach the mar-
ket without delay. The best prices
are obtained about the beginning of
the wild blueberry season. The main
crop of wild blueberries comes from
northern New England, Canada and
northern Michigan. A location to
the south of these areas where the
berries will mature earlier is, there-
fore, to be desired for the commer-
cial cultivator.
Another important factor to be
considered in selecting a location for
a blueberry patch is the possibility
of late spring freezes. For this rea-
son the bottoms of valleys should be
avoided, Freezing seldom injures
the blueberry plant itself, but the
fruit crop is often destroyed in this
way. From past observations it ap-
pears that wild blueberries growing
in or around bodies of water fre-
quently escape the injurious effects
of late spring freezes, and it seems,
therefore, that a flooding equipment
for blueberry plantations similar to
those used for cranberry bogs may,
under certain circumstances, prove
commercially advantageous.
At the present time, however, only
a beginning hal been made in blue-
berry culture. The yield and profits
in field plantations from improved
bushes have not as yet been ascer-
tained. There is, however, one small
plantat)o where complete records
have; beeimalatained for the past
six years. This plantation was 'start-
ed. in 188 in a natural blueberry
bog which vas first drained and 11lea
set with wr d blueberry- bushes trans-
planted witout selection for individ-
ual ':producl;ivenees or size of ljerries.
On this ,Q lakation the yield per acre (1
has, average 1,741 quarts for e
Oat six' Ye . This average would
have been stnewhat 'higher except
ter the alma total failure of the
crop' in 191 , due to late spring
freezes

Asquith recently administered a
grim' snub to a certain M,P. Some
time 'ago, oa the death of a noted
public man, there was a great deal of
gossip as to who should succeed him.
The M.P. in question had a friend
mileage he -,wished to get the appoint-
ment, and, determined to be first in
the field, he went to, Mr. Asquith on
the day after the late bolder of the
post had died: "May my friend So-
and-so have Mr. Blank's place?' he
asked, eagerly. "He may,' answer-
ed M1', Asquith, gravely, "11 he thinks

Woman's Most Reliable Medicine
—Here is' More Proof. 1
To women who are suffering from some form of;
of breaking,
special ills and have a constant fear

down, the three following letters ought to bring hope : —
North Crandon, Wis.—"When I was 16 years
old I got married and at 18 years I gave birth to
twins and it left me with very poor health: I could'
not walk across the floor without having to sit
down to rest and it was hard for me to "keep about and do my work. I went to a doctor and he told
me I had a displacement and ulcers, and would
have to have an operation. This frightened me so,
much that I did not know what to do. Having/
heard of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
I thought I would give it a trial and it made me as
dpi • well as ever. - I cannot say enough in favor of the
Pmkham remedies."—Mrs. MATHS ASBA.ea, North Crandon, Wis.
Testimony from Oklahoma.
Lawton, Okla.—"When I began to take Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound I seemed to be good for nothing. I tired easily
and had headaches much of the time and was irregular. I took it again
before my little child was born and it did me a wonderful amount of
good at that time. I never fail to recommend Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound to ailing women because it has done so -much
for me."—Mrs. A. L. MOCASLAND, 509 Have St., Lawton, Okla.
From a Grateful Massachusetts Woman.
Roxbury, Mass.—"I was suffering from inflam-
mation and was examined by a physician who found
that my trouble was caused by a displacement.
My symptoms were bearing down pains, backache,
and sluggish liver. I tried several kinds of medi-
cine; then I was asked to try Lydia E. P!nkha.m's
Vegetable Compound, It has cured me and I am
pleased to be in my usual good health by using it
and highly recommend it." — Mrs. B. M. Osaoon,
