That evening the shoe man passing by the hardware store handed out the gold piece for a lawn mower. It 'remained in the hardware man's tin all that night. Bright and early next morning, the hardware man handed it out to the grocery man in payment for his month- ly account. The grocery man's wife next took possession of the coin and exchanged it at the drygoods store for sundry pur- chases. The next man to get it was the dray- raan, who had a bill for hauling. He in tura passed it on to the doc- tor, who had treated his sick child. The dootor handed it over to the druggist for value received, and the druggist deposited it in the bank. Next day the bank cashier returned the gold piece to the hotel man in pay- ment of his board bill. The busy little coin might have con- tinued its merry round in the town, but the next day it passed into the hande of a farmer selling chickens. WHEN TO USE DR. WILLIAMS' PINK PILLS ekk\eaarE ONTARIO'S SHEEP. is4 rannen to be Encouraged to noise More The Provincial Agrieintural Depart- ment hes decided to establieli eight illustration stsitions for , sheep It Ote thine These will be located en the fa,rine of men who are not experts in eneep-reising, ana a mimed of the work none will be kept. The number of sheep kept in On- tario has been duets:ming during re- cent years, the hewers maintaining that they are not 'se profit:ante as other kinds of live stock. The new stations are designed to show the average profit farmers may expect to make from guide ewes. The first of the stations lets been establishen in York county on the farm of William Little, of Brown's Corners, neer Agincourt. Another will be established in nnaskoka for summer Webs. While others aro to be located in Leeda, Siencoe, Huron, Mid- die.sexe, Brant and Victoria. It is en• ticipated that they will be kept in operatiou till the opening of 1912 to take in the product of two full years. The fanners will receive a small premium for their trouble in eupply- ing records and reports, and the sta- tions wit be open for inspection, and will supply inferniation when asked. The department has deckled to looate the stations on the farms of the follow- ing: Messrs. Win, Little, Brown's Cor- ners, York county; Marshall Dickie, IIycle Peek, Middlesex county; Jahn Pritchard, Redgrave, Huron ()aunty; Wm. Criehton, Paris, Brant eoway; E.

Dr. Wilileens' Rink Pills were origin- ally a preseription used in the doetons private practice, and their benefit to inankind has been increas•ed many thou- sand fold by their being placed on gem- ent:1 sale throughout th; world with the doctor's own directions for use, They rue entirely safe and contain no opiate or habit-forniing drugs. Dr. Williams Pink Pills are a remedy to use when the blood is team as in anaemia; or impure, as in, rheumatism; or when the nerves are wean, as in neu- ralgia; or lifeless in paralyses, n OT wheat the body as a whole is ill nou'viehed, as in general debility. They buila up the blood, strengthen the nerves and. cure the troubles of women and growing girls, and marry forms of adeaknesn. That thousamds of people have tried _Phis treatment wIth good results is shown by the constantly increasing number of cures reported. Mr. Paul Charbonneen, a young man well Imown in the town of St. Jerome, Que., is one of the host who bear testi- mony to the value of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. He says: "When I left school I became a bookkeeper itt an important office. Probably due to the confinement, I began to suffer from indigestion and loss' of strength. I became pale and seemingly bloodless and was oaten sen ed 'with 'palpitation of the heart and violent headannes. I tried several rem- edies, but they did not do me a bit of good. I was advised to try Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills and did so, and the nee of eight boxes brought me back to perfect health and strength.

Difference of Earning Powers of Cows of Same Herd. The Dominion Department of Agricul- ture Branch of the Dairy and Cold Stor- age Commissioner issues the following from records being received at Ottawa from members of cow testing associa- tions there is apparent a very inarked variation in the earning power of the various cows in the same herd. There is every indication of many of last sea- son's variations being repeated, such teals will show in naany eases twenty- five dollars difference in income between two COWS in the same herd. In some herds this is increased to forty dollars. For instance, in a. her of 11 cows an eight year old cow gives actually 4,200 lb. milk and 180 lb. fat more than a five year 'old in the same stable during the same time. Placing a value of only 20 cents per pound on the butter, the one now is thus seen to earn over forty dol- lars more than the other. This is the important point to notice; there are hundreds of farmers in the Dominion in whose herds just such re- markable differences between cows can IA found, but the owners are probably unaware of the extent of such differ- ences and will continue to be without the information. so essential itt these days of close margins until a record is kept of the production of eachnndivid- ual cow in the herd. Just a few min- utes figuring per month will add vast- ly to the interest of the daily milking, besides providing a sure guide for reap- ing more profit per cow. The keeping of such records my have a speciil at- traction for some younger member 'of the family. Earliest CnisesmakIng. The manufacture of glass dates from the earliest times, and no doubt orig- inated with the Egyptians, as the old- est known specimens are those found in the tombs of Egypt, and the earliest mention of it, dating back to 3300 B. (3., has been found in inscriptions of that country. .After the Egyptians, the ancient people most renowned for glass - making were the Phoenicians, and the legend of that people concerning the discovery of the art has been often told. Certain Phoenician traders, it is field, returning to their home in a ship laden with natron or soda, and ,. be- ing 4aortipelled to land on a sandy tact on the Syrian coast, in building a fine, on the sand to prepare their suppera' placed their cooking pots on lumps of soda.

A native born American member of a party of four business men who often lunched together, took great delight on joking the others on their foreign birth. "It's all very well for you fellows to talk about what we need in this country." he said, "but when you come to think et it you're really only intruders. Not one of you was born here. You're welcome to this country, of course, but you really oughtn't to forget what you owe us natives who open our doors to you." "Maybe," said an Irishman in the crowd, thoughtfully. Maybe. But there's one thing you seem to forget: I came into this country wid me fare paid an' me clothes on me back. Can you say the same?" Canadian fruit exporters really gather some helpful hints from a recent report sent to the Canadian Department of Trede and Commerce by E. D. Arnaud, our Trade Commissioner at Bristol, Eng- land. To secure the beet results it is important that Canadian fruit -shippers understand, not only the art of pack- ing the fruit and caring for it in tran- sit, but also the best means of distri- buting it to the consumers. This last knowledge is evidently sometimes lack- ing, and loss is entailed on that account. Mr. Arnaud directs attention to the ex- cellent facilities that are provided atthe Avonmouth docks at Bristol for the handling of fruit cargoes to a popula- tion of about 9,000,000 people withi,n a rtsdius of ninety miles of that city. We learn that, notwithstanding that the freight cost is increased thereby, most of the Canadian apples are shipped di- rect to London or Liverpool, there to be distributed to their final markets. Tbis is hardly well advised. The South Australia commercial agent, who has been giving the matter considerable study, and who has urged upon his peo- ple the importance of attractive pack- ages, has this to say upon the subject: "A'point of extreme interest to the growers, and one which has to an ex- tent been overlooked by them, is the re- duction of transit charges in Eng- land. Under the existing system the majority of the apples are ship- ped to London, and sent thetico to other places by rail, which involves extra expense. It costs 10 3-4d. to send a case of apples from London to Binniegham, and from Bristol to Birmingham the charge is 41-2d. Large quantities a South Australian apples are sold in those places, and also at Cardiff, and in every instance the fruit is railed from London. It is difficult to understand why the ship- pers insist upon their goods being dumped down in London, instead of giving their agent the option of a, portion of it at least being sent rowel to Bristol, which would save it abilling t case to the exporter. /2 it Cardiff buyer send to London for his ,fruit he has to pay, say 12s. Od. a case for it, and a sinning for earrings, and he would sooner pay 13s. or 13s. 3d. foe the hint at Bristol, which would serve not only Cardiff, but other largo cities. Tho mune arguinent applies to Birming- ham. The buyer asentld much rather pay 12a. 9d. at Bristol and 4 1-2d. carriage, than 12s. Od. in London and 10 3-4d. ear- s -lege. The freight is exactly the same from Adelaide to Bristol as to London, end it is hard to understand why the exporters persist in ignoring the advan- tages to be gained by consigning some of their fruit to ports other than Lon- don." The subject is of Sufficient import - alio to engage the attention of our peo- ple. It should be their endettvor to pro- fit by the watchfulness of the Ceamdian agents in outside markets, and The ap• pit erop Marketing is worthy of. seienti- . fie study. Where Ignoranee is bliss is It folly to have more money than you know What to do- with? Is THE GENTIMikieli? (New York Sun.) The simple meaning given in a pooket dictionary for "gentleman" is a "a man of houor." "Gentility" is defined as "good breeding." A. gentleman is, then, a well-bred man. It has been sug- gested by snobs that "it takes three genevations to make a gentleman." Thackeray, who wrote a Book of Snobs, would exclude a man who east peas with his knife from the category of gentle- men. In Christmas Tales Christ is spok- en of as "the first of gentlemen." In that case, Plato, Xenophon and Socrates were not "gentlemen." I should say that every man who is gentle, who is Te - fined, who is strictly honest and who keeps his word is -a gentleman, regard- less of the "claims of long descent." WHAT HIS LINE WAS. A number of drummers were sitting in a hotel lobby, when one of them be- gan to boast that his firm had the most people pushing its line of goods. There was a little argument, and then a drummer who had not had much to say before suddenly rose and said, 'P11 bet any man in the house that my firm has the most people pushing its line of goods!" "Done!" exclaimed the boastful one. The money was accordingly put up with a stakeholder, and then the boasting drummer asked: "Now, what is your firm's line of goods?" "Baby carriages," murmured the nuiet man, as he took the money and made for the side aeon -Judge's Li- brary. .11.1.1••••• "You can cc:me pretty .near trusting the average farmer to get the most for his money.

He could drive horse! all right; lie could get through where' any man coukl if he was running on tracks; and standing there on the plate: form with the lines in one band and.. the other resting on the brake and hold- ing a whistle between his teeth on occa- sion, and wearing in winter an ulster of marvellous color and construction, and. in summer something leas, he was at all times a. man to cowman our re- spect an admiration. And we'll never go back on him. .An yet we must amit that there is something worth looking at about his latter day successor, the mom motorman. He stands on the front platform, to he sure, as did his predecessor, the driver; but in every other respect bow different! In a trim uniform, the motorman, with a uniform coat in win- ter, holding no lines, for his car is not drawn by horses. Down under his feet rims an invisible eurrea with the power of thousands of horses, a power which he can let into the car or shut off or control at will be the mere twisting of a little lever. No tugging at lines or chirruping at horses for him. If he wants to stop he has no frantic twisting of a hand brake, but with his Land on lever scarcely longer than your finger, he works now an air brake. The motorman is truly an expert. He can bring his big ear, weighing ten tons more or less loaded, up in short order, but so smoothly and gently that you may not know when it stops. Or if he should chance to find ahead, turning out upon another track, a ear that had lost its power connection, he will, to give that car its requisite little push ahead, tool up behind it so very gently that you can scarcely tell when the rigid steel fenders meet, At the same time on the modern trol- ley car you still find a hand brake, with a long and powerful handle, and this brake the motorman uses going down heavy grades or hills, keeping thus his air brake in reserve. If he used his air brake then and that should break down it might be impossible then for him or for any maxi at that stage of the game to set a hand brake effec- tively, so he runs her slow down the Finger-Frinte Never Fall. Although sears from wounds and cers freugeatly partly desteesy the nat. teen folds, such disfigurements aro more often than otheriviee aide to idmitifea- time When the system of finger prints Wa8 first detroduted at pollee heads quarberS in New York, a Heiden/ea in one of the echnioistrative departments trite' to diseredit it.

Nevertheless, the pat- tern form was more accurately diselosea in the wend printiug than in the first.

Faith to be talon Seriously. ne trouble with many a Chrietlan is that he does not take hie profession of faith in Christ seriously. He Is inter- ested in and occupied by other things, flis thmienit, strength, time and means are under tribute to a group of objeete which he hive selected without conference with and reference to his Lard. He counts Jesus out of mcset of hie active life. He has futurized kis religion. Hie church is not an immediate affair, but a sort of necessaey and unescapable re - insensibility whieli is often a real burden to him. He is impetient of its appaale and annoyed by Its littraiion upon his self life, The cure of all these ins is regular attendance upon the prayer meeting of the church.

This gait of peace in altogathei different. "The penile eesentiel is not ease, but striae,- net eeltsindiagence, but self- sacrifice; eiot acmliescance in evil for the sake of 'mint, hut 'conflict for the eake of God." The Master ever travels up stream; he attacks abuses, overturns tables, scorches the Pharisee, the Sadducce, the lawyer alid the politician. Bold in at- tack, yet Ile is not carnal; fights with • eword, the sword of his mouth, sharp errows of truth, piercing, dividing, kill. hie and making whole. "What living heart is there that will net come At His redeeming call, that cloth not sigh To give him love for love, and will not fly Unto His heart, our everlasting home?" Christ came to transferal the heart, give:peace of conscience and reconcile to This right He purchased by His death. . ° This peace is not the work of man, but the gift -of Gal, the truth as it is: in Jenne It transcends all human emus prehension; it takes ainay the .sting of guilt, silences the alarms of eonscienee, gives assurance of pardon, present and for ever. It is real, it is its own wit- ness, it abides, it creates heavenly places even on earth. "We march to fight with powers of night, That have held the world in sorrow, And the broken heart shall forget its . smart, And shall have a joyful morrow." This peace is not torper, dullness, ignorance; not in vain did He tell them that the Comforter would come, ..Not falsely did He define the blessed visit- ant as the Spirit of Truth. Such peace had Paul when he became the ambassa- dor of God. "For forty years the scoff of synagogue and the outcast of his people, he forgot the privations of the exile in the labors of the missionary, persecuted from city to eity, he yet created in each a centre of pure wor- ship, and amid the joys of making con- verts, he had elm the affliction of mak- ing martyrs." Such was the spirit and the faith which Jesus left, and in whick His first disciples found their rest. The consumniation is not yet. "He shall reign from pole to pole, With illimitable sway; ire shall reign when like a scroll Yonder heavens shall pass away."
