How One Day Showed Intelligent Af
taction in MInisterng to Another,
A Princeton man who is fond of
horses and clogs, says a writer, owns
a finely bred hunting dog, which he
missed for several days: He made in-
quiries, but uo one had seen anything
of the animal, and after a week the
owner gave him up as lost, strayed
or stolen. One of the farm hands was
rambling through u chopped -off wood
lot a few days later and came upon
the dog caught in a steel trap that
some one had set to catch a skunk or
some other game, Both forepaws
were held in the jaws of the trap, ana
the dog could not escape.
But, in spite of his terrible predica-
ment, he was not emaciated; and al-
though in paid, he had not gnawed liis
forelegs, as many animals will do
when they are in the torture of a. steel
trap. Strangest of all, scattered all
round the trapped dog were bones,
scraps of meat and various other
things that dogs like. Several ham
bones and beef bones, with shreds of
meat clinging, were right under the
captive's nose, and he was chewing a
bone when the man discovered his
plight.
The trapped dog was carried home
in the arms of the man who found him,
and a little later the owner went to the
trap to see who or what had brought
those bones and scraps 'of food to the
suffering captive. While he stood
silently regarding the llittle heap of
bones and scraps, another dog from
hisown kennels came through the
brush, her jaws filled with chicken
bones, meat trimmings . and other
gleanings from the kitchen garbage
pail. The dog dropped her load close
to the trap and sniffed round as if she
were worried. She whined and whim-
pered when she decided that her
friend had gone: The owner called
her, and she came slinking and tremb-
ling to him, as if she expected to be
punished.
The owner patted and fondled her;
then he went with her to the trap and
let her smell round it to her heart's
content, and all the while he kept call-
ing her "Good old doggy! Good dog!"
until she seemed to understand that
her master was praising her; then
her joy was unmistakable.
Calling her after hila, he went back
to the stable, where Me injured dog
was licking his wounds. When the
other dog saw the rescued animal, she
showed every indication of joy. She
barked, capered round, wagged her
tail almost off, and then lent her own
moist tongue to the healing process
on her friend's sorely bruised paws.
The two dogs seemed to understand
each other, and the way those two
friends expressed friendship was a
revelation to the humans who looked

When He Comes Whistling Home.
He used to come, vacation tines,
Homo on the midnight train,
Whistling as clear as any bird,
In spite of snow or rain;
We seldom heard that music shrill
Ring like• a silver horn-
We were so sure,ethe night before,
He would not come till morn!
But in our dreams there seemed to be
An echo of great joy;
Our sleep was filled with

Slippers and robes are donned,
And yawns and laughter break the

And exclamations fond.

He comes on flying feet,
The inotlely crowd that gathers there
Tumultuous to greet.
"Caught us again." "The train was
late!"
"Examinations done?"
"I wish we hadn't gone to bed!"
"Dear boy!" "You scamp!" "What
fun!"

A whining breaks upon the ear,
With scratchings mingled in it;

In one long, rapturous Ieap;
And In that happy household now
, Is no more thought of sleep!
So long ago! so far away!
Such endless miles from home!
The transports dock, with cheering
crowds,
And yet he does not come! ...
Four weary, waiting, listening years
Of pride, love, fear, regret,
And yet he does not come! 0 Prance,

FATEFUL YEARS
FOR ALL WOMEN
How T3est to Overcome the: Trou-
bles That Afflict Women Only.
The most fateful years in a woman's
life are those between forty-five and
fifty. Many women enter this term
under depressing conditions through
overwork, worry or a neglected con-
dition of the blood, and so they suffer
heavily. = Still, variations of health at
this time can slie relieved by home
treatment.
Among the commonest symptoms
are headaclres and pains in the back
and sides, fever -flushes, palpitation,
dizziness and depression. Women
stand In need of rich, red blood all
their life, but never more so than in
middle age, when the nerves are also
weak and over -wrought. Now every
woman can prove the prompt help se -
forded to her health by renewing her
blood supply. It is a test that any ail-
ing woman can make by taking Dr,
Williams' Pink Pills, for these pills
make rich, red blood, which in turn
helps the appetite, strengthens the
nerves and restores robust 'health.
Thousands of women have found in Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills the means by
which new health and a brighter out-
look of life were gained. In proof of
this is the voluntary testimony of Mrs.
H. S. Peterson, Milford, Ont., who
says:—"I have suffered greatly from,
those troubles that afflict my sex, and
I have found that Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills in such cases not only do all that
is claimed for them, but more. Dr.,
Williams' Pink Pills have done so
much for me that I urge every weak
woman to try them, and they will soon
realize the great difference in one's
health ,. make."
1'h t he y
If you suffer from any of the ills
that particularly afflict womanhood
you should avail yourself at once of the
health help of Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills: - You can get them' from any
dealer in medicine or by mail post
paid at 50, cents a box or six boxes
for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams' Medi-
cine Co., Brockville, Ont.
Hearthside.
So many things to love in that small
house of ours,
The sunlight swept across the break-
fast board,
The brass bowls blooming with their
nodding sheaves of flowers,
The genial fireplace where stout logs
have roared;
There is a little window looking to the
east
Where stars peeped in on us
through twilight haze;
The mottled plates we kept against
the seldom feast
Shining from their shelves in bright
arrays;
The wide, soft rugs—fair-colored as
some enfabled mead,
With. stiff Levantine blossoms,
weaver -sown;
The stately stairs, the pipestand and
rows of books to read;
The sweater on the settle lightly
thrown.
So much I love * * * their 1peacea
content and happiness,
And friendliness to make such cor-
ner bloom,
And, more than all, the clock, so
solemn of address,
That murmurs to itself down the
still room.
Instructing Grandpa.
"I was talking to my little grand-
daughter over the telephone the other
day," said an old man recently to a
few of his friends at a hotel, " and
when I ended I said, "Here, Dorothy,
is a kiss for you.' She replied, 'Oh!
pshaw, grandpa! Don't you know that
a kiss over the telephone is like a
straw hat?' I said, 'Why, no, sweet-
heart, how's that?' 'It's not felt,
graudpa,' she said."
The perennial border will be bene-
fited by mulching during'hot weather
with the clippings from the lawn.

Politeness Pays.
A bright-eyed little boy in a sailor
suit saluted the occupants of a passing
motorcar so quaintly that they stopped
to give him sixpence.
"You're a very polite little fellow,"
the lady motorist said. "Do you salute
all the strangers who pass in the same
way?"
"No, no, ma'am, only motorists," the
boy stammered, fingering his sixpence
nervously. "Father says I'm to be
polite to them, because motorcars
bring him trade."
The lady seemed disappointed.
"What is your father's trade, my
little .man? Does he repair motor-
cars ?"
"No, ma'am; he's an undertaker,"
was the little fellow's response.
"Always laugh when you can; it is
cheap medicine. Merriment is a
philosophy not well understood. It
is the :sunny side of existence."—

CANADA IS PAR GOL.F.
"Canadian golfers are hard to beat,
but Canadian hospitality cannot be
beaten," declared Charles ("Chick")
Evans, Jr., amateur and open chain -
Plea golfer of the United States, after
he had returned from the Hamilton
and Scarborough Golf Clubs. . Cana-
dian experts in these clubs bad com-
pelled him to play his best to will,
and then both clubs had made him a
life member. "Canada, in my opinion,"
ho added, "Is par golf."
About the third week in June Evans
hopes to make his fifth trip to Canada
to play for the benefit of the Canadian
Red Cross. Other noted golfers who
may go along are Francis Ouimet,
Jerome D. Travel's and John G. Ander-
son. The cities visited will be Mont-
real, Ottawa, St, Andrews -by -the -sea
and Toronto.
Canada has a string of well-planned
golf courses from the Atlantic to the
Pacific, ranging from seaside links at
St. Andrews -by -the -sea on the Bay of
Fundy to the Banff Springs Golf Club,
Alberta, where the golfer can play his
'game at an altitude of nearly a mile.
Going farther west he can play the
Vancouver and Victoria golf clubs
where the altitude is not far above the
sea and where the golf sharp can play
the royal and ancient game every
month in the twelve, because the
Japan current decrees that there shall
be no "winter killed" greens.
This year will be the greatest in the
history of Canada and the United
States so far as international golf is
concerned. Ten of Canada's best golf-
ers will play against ten of the best
from the United States at the Hamil-
ton Golf and Country Club, Hamilton,
Ontario, on July 26th, and the Cana-
dian Seniors, wlio won the .,Duke of
Devonshire's Cup in a match against
the United States Seniors, will defend
the cup in a return match at Apawa-
mis Golf Club, Rye, N.Y.
Champion Evans has a very high
opinion of Canadian golf courses, a'hd
of the Hamilton Golf and Country
Club in particular. "This Club," he
states, "is one of the very best links
in North America. It 'swings well,'
and is a thorough test of golf."
The St. Andrews -Algonquin Golf
Club at St. Andrews -by -the -Sea is an
18 -hole links, 6,000 yards in length,
and there is also a 9 -hole links near
by. The long course resembles some
of the best seaside links of Scotland.
Toronto, Montreal, Quebec, Winnipeg,
Calgary; Victoria and Vancouver are
all great golfing centers. At the
Banff Springs Golf Club on "The Roof
of the World," the golf is excellent
`-ariir"` the scenic surroundings unsur-
passed in beauty.
TORONTO FAT STOCK SHOW.
At the annual meeting of the Toron-
to Fat Stock Show, held recently, it
was decided to again have classes for
female cattle, also that instead of re-
quiring ninety days' ownership of car-
loads of cattle that it would be suf-
ficient if owned by exhibitor at time
of entry. This will be welcome news
to some exhibitors who were unable
to compete in some of the classes last
year.
The Forth Bridge.
An American naval officer, on ar-
rival in Scottish waters, was signalled
to anchor at the Forth Bridge. After
cruising about for hours the officer
signalled back this message:—"Have
searched this brook from mouth to
source. Have .found the first bridge
all right, but I'm blest if I can find
the second, let alone the third or
fourth!"

STAMPS REFLECT HISTORY.
Controversy Over Fiume Shown in
Postage Stamps.
A striking example of the planner
In which current events are reflected
on the postage stamps of nations is
provided by the Italo-Slovak deadlock
at flume.
When the Jugo-Slays first occupied
the town, immediately after the de-
claration of the armistice, they signal-
ized the event by imposing the initials
of the united Slav states—"S. H. S."—
upon the Slav stamps, which, however,
proved short-lived, for on the arriv-
al of the Italilans they were suppres-
sed in favor of a somewhat similar
series, bearing the simple imprint
"ratline" in large black capitals.
Whatever may be the ultimate fate
of i3'iume, these transitionary stamps
will constitute historical evidence of
the rival claims to its possession.

LEMONS MAKE SKIN
WHITE, SOFT, CLEAR
Make this beauty lotion for a few
cents and see for yourself.
What girl or woman hasn't heard of
lemon juice to remove complexion
blemishes; to whiten the skin and to
bring out the roses, the freshness and
the hidden beauty? But lemon juice
alone is acid, therefore irritating, and
should be mixed with orchard white
this way. Strain through a fine cloth
the juice of two fresh lemons into a
bottle containing about three ounces
of orchard white, then shake well and
you have a whole quarter pint of skin
and complexion lotion at about the
cost one usually pays for a small jar
of ordinary cold cream. Be sure to
strain the lemon juice so no pulp gets
into the bottle then this lotion will re-
main pure and fresh for months. When
applied daily to the face, neck, arms
and hands it should help to bleach,
clear, smoothen and beautify the skin.
Any druggist will supply three
ounces of orchard white at very little
cost and the grocer has the lemons.

Ouch 1 ? ! ? 1 ! This kind of rough
talk will be heard less here in town if
people troubled with corns will follow
the simple advice of this Cincinnati
authority, who claims that a few drops
of a drug celled freezone when applied
to a tender, aching corn stops soreness
at once, and soon the corn dries up
and lifts right out without pain.
He says freezone Is an ether com-
pound which dries immediately and
never inflames or even irritates the
surrounding tissue or skin. A quarter
of an ounce of freezone will cost very
little at any drug store, bu4 is suffi-
cient to remove every Bard or so.ft
corn or callus from one's feet. Millions
of American women will welcome this
announcement since the inauguration
of the high heels.
