THE CRY OF THE TWO-THIRDS Shortly after putting Meg upon the bed strode out of the house. Who shall say the boy cannot suff- er as really, as exquisitely as the man ! Ben Hiltz would have found it impossible to describe Eleanor for anyone that night ; his every nerve was vibrating too keenly to the agony of loss her presence and her departure had caused her sym puthy and loveliness instead of inspiring and soothing, had irrita- ted him with the desperation of despair. And of all despair, per- haps the despair of the young, f while it lasts, has in it the most o hopeless desolation ; they have not BI NESS CARDS•yet learned the "nevertheless after- wards" of life's severest descipline. With the memory of her childish face before him, the melody of her voice still in his ears and because he drank that night of the in- toxicating cup' and drank deeply for a boy. "Your discouraged, Ben ; it will put heart into you. There;s nothing like forgetting trouble while you can, and there's nothing like a good glass of lager to help men to forget," said one many years the lad's senior to him, Ben's inner self reponded. "I must forget," and so he drank, that night when he came home; could his mother believe it? was it only imagination' As she lifted her • •eary eyes from the weary seam, did they encounter the great, staring eyes of her first born with all the beauty, all the soul quench- ed by strong drink? 0 mother- hood ! 0 motherhood ! who would covet thee! at what a price these women purchase thy agonies and thy blisses, and who shall say which outweighs and who but God can range the deepest depths of either. Something was creeping over her boy's life. Bessie began to fear it before that fateful even- ing. But if she had been slow to perceive, she had been slower yet to believe, to admit the truth to Go acres, all good land, with goori bank her stricken heart.

To sU iilc truthfully, his �nutlepce•among those rough fel lows was largely the result of his superiority, while he held aloof from them they resented his little refinements. The bare existence of such qualities in one living in their midst was reckoned an insult by these sons of the slums. But when he • sought their companionship, came down to their level. they Iifted him, looked up to, referred to lihn. and, because of the very things so lately resented, gave him plane above themselves. It was a place of greater peril to one of his peculiar temperament, At sixteen he found himself a bundle of contradictions. hating that which he nevertheless did, yielding to that which be despised in others, slowly forming habits such as had been the source of all his woe ; ever longing to comfort, help his mother, yet steadily increasing ber load, dropping to the level of his surrounding, his companionn- ships ; seeking a depth from which it would take strong hands to lift him, nail pierced bands from which he would have neither grace nor will to lift himself. His mother had never been his confidante. On the contrary, he had withheld from her his fears and difficulties. trying to save her from worry. This was especially true of late. The very effort he made after self-restraint, the determination with which he checked every appearance of emotion for her sake, reacted in an Irritable moroseness which wounded her most of all. Lack of sympathy kills more surely and speedily than lack of food, and kills the part of himself the man can least easily spare. Gentle, quiet, repressed and self-centered, Bessie, with all ber love, had no idea of the eemoldering fires pent up in the volcanic bosons of her son. She had rco gauge by which to measure the soul of the boy outside of her self and in her self she Iacked. that subtle something which might It ne discerned and met his need. 'So it happened that this woman, who could have suffer- ed tortures to benefit her son could not give him sympathy where he most needed it. (To be continued) Ethel M. Williams, Pres., Supt.

People think that the price and scarcity of eggs is affected by the climate. That is a wrong im- pression Not long agci the Ontario Agricultural College at Guelph set aside eighty hens under the conditions that prevail on the average farm. A strict record was kept of the' laying of the hens. and these are the interesting figures that were se- cured. The "lay" for each month was: January 777, February 791, March 1,644, April 1,930. May 1,050, June 1,066, July 941, Augnst 386, September 236, October 1.61, November 111, December 538. The young ladies of this section are rapidly leaving the farm and have gone to the towns and cities with a view to materially improve their financial and matrimonial situation. The writer believes that this reason is sufficient to account for the fact that bachelors are so numerous in the vicinity of Drys- dale. The recently, constrneted tele- phone line is dziily becoming more appreciated by the boys and girls who find in it a very convenient way of conversing. Although separated by a distanne of many miles the voices really sound so distinctly that the talkers believe themselves to be in reality side by side and are thereby enabled to communicate with friends often many miles distant from their place of residence.
