FALL TREATMENT OF NEW • t • SEEDINGS OF GRASSES AND CLOVERS Pasturing seedings Of grasses and clovers in the fall of the season is probably one of the greatest reasons /why many promising stands prove a slisappointment the following season. 'Any pasturing to be done the same :year as sown must -be done caret:Lily mnd early, so- that sufficient growth -will be left to protect the stand dur- ing the winter. Late, dose pasturing .or pasturing when the ground is wet tshould never be practised either with :an old or a new seeding if maximum results are to be obtained the follow- ing year. Late, close pasturing, Per- Alcularly of new seedings, lessens the vitality of the plants by rentoving /the protection which full growth fur- mishes and so exposds the plants to .. ; PAIN IN THE JOINTS • Is An Indication that the Blood is Thin and Watery. The first sign of rheumatism ie fre- quently a pain and swelling of ohe of the joints. If this is not treated through, the. blood, which is the seat of the disease, the poison spreads, af- fecting, other joints and tissues - sometimes rheumatism attacks the heart and is fatal. A remedy that has 'corrected many cases of rheumatism is Dr.Williams' Pink Pills- These pills 'enrich and purify the blood so that the poisonous rheumatic matter is driven out of the system as tiatbre intended. Miss Ger- tie Denne, Washago, Ont., was at- tacked with rhehmatism and found relief through Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. She says: -"About a. year ago I ,was attacked by' rheumatism- and for two weeks was confined to. my bed. • The,trouble waif so painful, af- lecting the Jelnts of .rny limbs so that I could not stand alone. Mother. had a boxtof Dr. Williams' Pink Pills in the house and thought they might help me. I began taking them, and when I. bad .taken these pills got' a further stipply, with the result that the rheumatism vanished and • I was a•well girl. I may add that my mo- ther and two or my sisters have also used the pills for various ailments with equal success, and now we are never without them in the, house." If you are suffering from any con- dition due to poor, watery- blood, or *ettic 'nerves, begin taking Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills now,and note how your strength and health will improve. You can get these pills through any dealer in inedicine, or by mail, at 50 cents a box from The.

TOYS. IN THE HARD TIMES When one is as poor as German( families now are one ofthe first and most obvious directions in which one can avoid expenditure is to cease to buy toys. German children have a good, idea of what times theylive in. Tiny mites ask the rate of the dollar, and: the frequent picture tq represent it, a man/climbing up a ladder, is one whohe significance Is very clear to them all. But children cannot live on read alone, and toys and genies they must have. Surely the saddest game for young people that was ever in- vented-eanuch sadder than pitch-andtosa or halfpenny nap --is that of the growing German childten who 'specu- late in marks under the school desk, in the playground, to and fro from school. But it is of the younger I am going to speak -those to whom a toy still means more than a gaine. , The superficial observer wandering througgli.the big stores\and linger- ing a mon-fent in the toy department, might rthaelds \eyebrows andwonder at the extravagant and luxurious ex- amples thete ahewn. He would notice that the 4fficiency of German toy - makers, always 'high, has positively inertiiised. The toy horse, for. exam - pie, how beautifully finished, how in- dividually treated! The horse before the cart.for "heavy loads" is -a laroed- shouldered, heavy beast of burden; that before the fine* lady's carriage is ' a thimlimbed, high stepping blood.

The fact that there is no unemployment, that it is difficult to get a typist or an of- fice boy to -day contributes somewhat towards the, idea of uniyersal wealth. But it is the individual instances that, time and again, give the impression of the immense amount of wealth which makes no show in France but which, neveretheless, exists to carry on the.tradition of the "bas de laine." Particularly is this the case with Frenchwomen, although there is no Married • Woman's Property Act. to advertise their pbtential wealth. For the Frenchweinan is, as it were, the receptacle not the recipient - of wealth. She sets the pace, does a great deal of the hoarding, adds in „ innumerable small waya to the fam- ily capital. The, shabby old grand- mothers who do the odd 'jobs in France, and work till they die, time and again leave surprisingly large sums behind them, which, in its turn, is gathered up by their heirs until their turn comes to hand it on intact. In the country, where a little piece of land will supply a large part of the daily needs, Frenchwomen hardly ever spend anything. They go about in the moat ancient clothes; they wear sabots which never wear out; their gala attire is only brought out at long intervals; they walk miles to save a few halfpence, and they give their own labour unsparingly rather han spend money upon any device, which might save it There is none' of the ostentation which in other countries makes it necessary for the person who has money to let others know that she has it. The extrava- g,ance of .the peasant lies perhaps in' Aro domestic details -the thick walla -tif the house and the vast accumula- tion of house and body linen. For- eigners have complained of extrava- gance in building the new houses in the devastated regiohs. As a matter of fact they ere now, at all events, built practically according to the specifications of the destroyed house, and this with an exactitude which is •soinetimes embarrassing. In the town the conservation of 'Money takes a different form.•For one thing, a women work perhaps to a much greater extent than in Eng- land.- That is to say, the casual and domestic woman works.

She went on with her work until the very day when she left the city for the little house and land which she bought after mature consideration in the country. Established in the country, she took :in ironing, made bead wreaths for the cemeteries, sold the vegetables grown in the garden, kept fowls and a eow, and spent no money beyond' the initial outlaY. Even among the enormous class of small officials in France vast sums are saved. The French love !lathing so much as an official job with the regular, if small, pay upon which they can count If both husband and wife have an official job this isi bliss indeed. They .subsiide at once ilito overalls and put paper in their col- lars and spend nothing. Meantime the capital increases regularly with, now and again, windfalls from a lot- tery or a bet. For this is the human side of the woollen' Stocking. • Half France lives in the hope of winning a lottery, and half France does a little' betting on the part,inutuel systhin. That the State runs both is recogni- tion of a human weakness; that it Makes money by it is the official vers- ion -of that weakness. There is also the "heritage" to which ,to look for- ward and which illinninates a very great deal of dreary Work. • h WHAT KAISER HOPED TO DO AT MANILA Just what the German Kaiser hop- ed to do at Manila in 1898 will prob- ably long remain doubtful. Admiral Dewey in his autobiography wisely refrained from passing judgment, contenting himself with describing, under the heading, "A Period of Anxiety," the activities of the Ger- man fleet at Manila and his •difficul- ties in persuadink the German Ad- miral Diedrichs that the American squadron was incommand and in- tended to enforce the blockade. But the generally accepted American opin- ion that the German Admiral was there in the role of a modern Auto- lycus-"a snapper up of unconsidered trifles" -has never been disproved. New light an the Kaiser's hostility to the United States now comes from a German source, says the New York Times. Captain Von L. Persius, the German naval expert, in an article in the Spanish paper El Sol, trans- lated in The Living Age- of Sept 15, recounts his experiences in Manila at the,time, he being second in com- mand of one of the German war vessels. • Frank in his criticism, he re- marks, in reply to the question why Gkrmany had such -a large fleet at Manila when her interests there were so small, that "it was only later that I appreciated the fact that William II, as was his custom, was eagerly fishing in these troubled waters." He then quotes from his own diary an account of the inter- view between Admiral Dewey and one of the youngest of Diedrich's officers where the latter had sent to protest against , Devre,y's interpreta- tion of international war. It appears that the young German, Von Hintze, later notorious, expressed himself with "unbecoming frankness" to Ad- miral Dewey, and finally drew from the latter the blunt question, "Young man, do you really know just what war in?" That the American Ad- miral was plain in his language may be surmised from the fact that in writing of this incident in his auto- biography Dewey said: "I made the most of the occasion by using hiin as a third person to state candidly and firmly my attitude in a verbal message which he conveyed to his* superior co successfully that Vice - Admiral Diedrichs was able to un- derstand my, point o view." Yet a few days later the German ACTIVITIES OF WOMEN The membership of the General Federation of Women's Clubs now exceeds 2,000,000. The first State to grant full suf- • frage was Wyoming in 1869, and the campaign for the vote was finally won in 1920. Queen Wilhelmina has asked that her salary be cut to conform with the reduction in Salaries of other state officials. ,. The fashion of painting the face 'which still has considerable vogue, began in the reign of Queen Eliza- beth of England. - Miss Nina Neuenfeldt, of Detroit, Mich., 21 years of age last March, is said to be the youngest woman lawyer • in the country.
