Nova Scotian, Famed For Its
Beauty, Has a Long and
Stirring History.
Nova Scotia lies been the name of
a territorial division. of North Ameri-
ca since 1624. It .was held by the
French and English alternately until
1710, when•it•.wae taken by the forces
under General Nicholson. Its history
Is rich in picturesque incidents aid
striking personality. The rivalry of
La Tour and Charnisay has inspired
song and story. Longfellow, by his
"Evangeline," node Nova Scotia clas-
sic ground; Annapolis 'Royal, found-
ed 1604, is the oldest settlement in
Canada. But Nova Scotia was first in
other things. it had the first news-
paper, the first .local legislature, the
first college, and the first provincial
history in Canada. Being settled first
of the English-speaking provinces, it
developed the first Anglo -Canadian
literature. "The Clock -Maker" made
Raliburton famous, appearing first as
sketches in Lowe's paper "The Nova
Scotian."
The Land of Evangeline.
Nova Siotia has a provincial flag
bearing the Arms of Scotland, a pro-
vincial flower—the Mayflower, or
Trailing Arbutus, and a provincial
name for its people, "Bluenoses." The
province is made up of beauty spots,
the most famous being the Annapolis
Valley, traversed by the Dominion At-
lantic Railway, and Cape Breton, the
scenery in the latter place being like
the Highlands of Scotland. This,
taken with the Scottish origin of so
many of the population, no doubt in-
spired the epithet "the Nova Scotia -
noes of Nova Scotia."
The old capital was Annapolis
Royal. In 1749, anow capital, Hali-
fax, named in honor of the Earl of
Haig Was founded by Colonel Ed-
ward Cornwallis, uncle of the general
who surrendered at Yorktown, on the
shore of Chebucto Bay, "Chief of
IIavens," to counterpoise the Freech
City of Louisburg in Cape Breton.
The harbor is one of the best in the
world, and the fortifications the most
important in Canada. The port was of
immense service during the war, Its
sea -borne trade is rabidly increasing.
Its population is about 63,000.
The increasing throng of tourists
that yearly visits the beautiful Land
of Evangeline has recently led to the
acquisition by the Dominion Atlantic
Railway of a further comfortable
hotel, The Aberdeen, at Kentville, to
those already operated by that Com-
pany.
"Rejoice, and Again 1 Say,

My song shall be of birds and flowers
And all the lovely things of earth;
The little leaves that clap their hands,
The health and wholesomeness of

The clinging clasp of loving hands;
The glee of frolic waves, that chase
Each other up the golden sands.
The morning stars together sang
'When this old earth of ours was
young;
'Tis we have lost the 'hearing car,'
Not they who leave their songs un-

Nome peeps dip their pens in tears, -
And some in wormwood and in gall:
'With ev'ry 'bush afire with God,'
And love the banner over all!

A Treat For Arthur.
A warning for housewifes is con-
tained in the following story, which
may prove helpful in suggesting the
proper method of reading cook -books,
if in no other way.
"I have cooked a little surprise for
you, dear," said young Mrs. Justwed:
"an almond souffle for after dinner,
I got the recipe from the new cook- .
book that came as a wedding present.
I'm sure it will be a success."
Arthur smiled doubtfully at the
souffle,
"Can't say I like it," he said after
the first mouthful. "Sure you got the
Instructions right? It tastes very
funny."
"Oh, yes-!" Eleanor replied with
tears In her eyes. "I can say then by
heart. Just hear me." And she. -took
down the volume.
"Take half a pound of grated al-
monds, one pound of confectioners'
Sugar; mix well with white of three
fresh eggs—"
"Correct" said Arthur, following the
lines with his finger.
"Add two ounces of white pepper,"
she continued breathlesslyr
"Pepper! Great goodness!" said the
Unhappy man as he to lled the page.
"Two large carrots *lopped into
(lice, a epoOnful of mustard, four
chopped onions and—"
"Stop! Stop! You must be wrong!
Why, my dear,I thought so. You are
muddling up almond souffle with Irish
Pew. You've forgotten to cut th,e
eaves of the book!"
What a Pity.
An untraveled countryman once
xeated himself to a trip to London,
'here for the first time In kis life he
taw a schoolgirl go through her gym-
pastic exercises i'or the amusement
pf the little ones With whom she was
playing,
,After gazing at her with looks of
µnterest mid compassion for, some

"No," replied the boy; "them's

Smallest British Airplane
Weighs 220 Pounds.
Clearly inspired by Santos-Dumont's
"Demoiselle" of 1907, is the "Crow,"
smallest airplane on the English mar-
ket, In both monoplanes, the twin -
cylinder engine is set on the leading
edge of the single plane, only a few',
feet above the head of the pilot, who
sits with his feet between the landing
wheels. This new machine shows the
modern' tendency, however, in the
elimination of every possible stay and
wire. The entire lifting service may,
in fact, be removed after unscrewing
a few nuts. The propellor, engine,
and gasoline tank form a complete
unit,' which is detached with similar
ease. The wing span is 15 ft., and the
over-all length 14 ft. The speed is 65
miles an hour, which can be reduced
to less than 30 for landing. The total
weight is but 220 lbs.; the price is ex-
pected
xpected to be $2,000 or less.
An Explanation.
Exasperated Passenger (after long
delay at wayside station) : "Why
don't you keep better time on this
wretched line?"
Irish Guard (confidentially:" Well
now, then, ma'am, I'll explain it all to
ye. The train before is behind, and
this train was behind before besides."

New Food Container for
the Trenches.
During the late war one of the com-
monest difficulties with which the
soldier in the trenches had to.contend
was that of preserving his food from
the''Zdepredations of rats and the con-
taminating attentions of files. To
overcome this difficulty, Mr. E. A.
Dennis, who spent four and a quarter
years with the N.Z.E.F., has invented
a tin receptacle for food which exact-
ly fits into an ordinary mess -tin. The
ends of this food -container are pro-
vided with four lever -topped vessels,
for butter, milk, jam, and condiments
respectively, while the middle portion
is available for other foods. At the
end of a march the new food -recep-
tacle, which is called the "Campaign-
er," could be taken out of the mess -
tin, leaving the latter clear for the
protection of the iron rati$ns from
rats. The system would also allow of
jam, margarine, and milk being issued
in lever -topped vessels 'which would
fit the "Campaigner," thus appreciably
simplifying having to serve out,•ra-
tions from bulk, he would simply is-
sue the necessary vessels to each man
every one, two, or three days.

"Did I understand you to say that
this lad voluntarily confessed to play-
ing truant?" asked a school attend-
ance officer, addressing 'the mother of
a small and dirty boy.
"Yes, sir, he did," the woman re-
sponded. "I just had to persuade him
a little, and then he told me.the whole
thing voluntarily."
"How did you persuade him?" in-
quired the officer.
"Well, first I gave him a good hid-
ing," Bald the parent, "and then I put
him to bed without slipper, and I took
his Clothes away and told him he'd
stay in bed till he confessed what he'd
done, if 'twas the rest of his days, and
that I should punish him again in the
morning. And in less than half an
hour he told me the whole story of
his own accord."

SAYS CORNS LIFT
RICHT OUT NOW
v--W—a—m e, a
Ton reckless men and women who
are pestered with corns and who have
at least once a week invited an awful
death from lockjaw or blood poison are
now told by a Cincinnati authority to
use a drug called freezone, which the
moment a few drops are applied to
any corn, the soreness is relieved and
soon the entire corn, root and all, lifts
out with the angers.
It is a sticky ether compound which
dries the moment it is applied and
simply shrivels the corn without in-
flaming or even irritating the surround-
ing tissue or skin. It is claimed that
a quarter of an ounce of freezone win
cost very little at any of the drug
stores, but is sufficient to rid one's feet
of every hard or soft corn or callus.
You are further warned that cutting
at a cora is a suicidal habit.
