WHEN an old bachelor marries his women acquaintances alt wonder that he didn't do it sooner and his men. friends wonder bow he happened to get caught. When a man marries to get a house- keeper he is sometimes Surprised and aghast to find that he is reckoned in as a part of the house furnishings.

One day a newcomer, in search of temporary lodgings, attraeted by a eonsplcuous sign in the window of the first of these two houses. stepped to. the door to make inquity, "I see you have furnished rooms. here," he said to the swarthy man who answered leis knock.

SEEING THE FAR EAST. it Should Be Viewed Through tho iii• Isle and "Arabian Nights," The best books , n the east, as every one knows, are the Bible and the "Ara- bian :rights, and yet 1 found most travelers were saturating themselves with snippity descriptions of monu- ments and places, with tabloids of his- tory, with technical paragraphs on ar- chitecture and the ethnic religious, with figures about the height of this and the length of that or condensed statistics of exports and imports and the tonnage through the Suez canal and dates about the Pharaohs and the Mughals. No wonder they see nothing, know nothing; enjoy nothing and come home bringing a few expletives, adjec- tives and photographs which can be had for a small price in either New York or London. The first thing to do in going to the east is to turn your education out on your desk so that you can get at the bottom of it, and there yon will find the Bible and the "Arabian •Nights" and the "Odyssey" and "Iliad" and "Virgil" and "II."redotute" and "Xeno- phon," and you will realize what a fool you were not to have devoted more time to them when you were asked to do so. Caide books can get you to the east. but they do not get you inside. It is temperament, not trains, that counts. -.?rice Collier in Scribner's Magazine.

DRY PICKED' POULTRY - A Series of Recent Experiments in Cold Storage Canadian exporters of poultry should be interested in a recent series of ex- periments in connection with the cold storage of poultry, which have shown that the method of scalclin,e chickens by plunging them in water just below boiling point to 'facilitate the removal of the feathers affects the keeping quality of the prepared birds. This method in the past has been very con• moniy practised by exporters of poul. try in the United States and other countries. The experiments under re- view revealed the fact that, deteriora- tion is greater in the case of scalded fowls than in those that were dry - picked' and the bacteriological exami- nation proved that the number of bac- teria was increased when the birds were draws before being placed in cold store. Dry -picked birds in good condition, promptly stored and kept for three and six months, are stated to have been hardly distinguishable from freshly lall•.d fowls.

R. E. Knowles for Reciprocity. Rev. R. E. Knowles of Galt, address- ed the Canadian Club at Guelph on Friday evening last, his subject being "A Nation in the Making." In the course of his address he declared that he was a Conservative himself, and had only cast one Liberal vote in his Iife, but he was nevertheless favorable to reciprocity. Canada, he declared, was standing just at the portals of her future greatness. She was more loyal now than ever she was,and the speaker believed that in stirring up Canada's loyalty, the present reciprocity treaty and all the foolish talk about annexa- tion had done as much good as another South African war, "After all, the things that trouble us most are the very things that (lo us the most good," said the speaker. It was disgraceful to contend that freer trade with our neighbors would make us less loyal to our mother country, Sueh talk was out of court and had been from the dawn of Waterloo down to the days of Paardeburg. It was the natural thing for Canada to have free trade with her c neighbors the speaker contended, and it was just as natural that she would remain loyal as ever to the motherlend.
