ALMOST HELPLESS
WITH RHEUMATISM
A Nova Scotia Lady Tells IIow
Isak set to work making a seat for
the cart. . , . Anti when he had got;
* the seat made it looked so white ahd
now that it had to be painted darker. ,
As for that, there were things :
enough that hiul to be done!
The whole place wanted painting, to ,
begin with. And lie had been think
ing for years past of building a
proper barn with a bridge, to house
in the crop-. He had thought, tod,..
of getting that saw set up and fin
ished; of fencing in all his cultivated , . ...evennd- of building a boat on the’gl*ftt agQliy WSt of th° linia After fake up in the hill’s Many things' ’trying ln vain to get «™tothing to re-
to y L Ik’-ovG me, I decided to take Dr. Wll-ph|?nVto In nnv fb„ J Bink Pflls, which I hafli heard
wnV dec ded vnd emplmS ’ The'lligllly recommended. I may say that
toii.iln ,^tor!'tho Quiek relief they afforded really
L itond’ i thS!!RWri&ed me, and after taking some
r^stoou like houstb th<3n t . boxes of tlia ni'lls; overv t*win^ ofshirt-sleeves. There was time yet!alx Doxes 01 U16 eveiT Uvnigo ox
before the busy season; the spring
was hardly begun yet; f*
things were out, but there was frost
in the ground still,
Isak goes do-wn to the village, tak
ing with him a few score of eggs for
sale, and brings back paint. There
was enough for ono building, for the(
barn, and it was painted red. He
fetches up more paint, yellow ochre
this time, for the house itself. . , .
When Isak had given his Avails a
first coat, he went down to the vil-
’lag’o again and brought up all the
paint he could carry. Three coats
he put on in all, and white on the
window-frames and corners. To
come back now andHook at his home
there on the hillside, it was like look
ing at a fairy palace. The wilder-1
ness was inhabited and unrecogniz
able, a blessing had come upon it,.,
human creatures lived there, children
played about the houses. And the
forest stretched away, big and kind
ly, right up to the blue heights....
The sun is big and strong now,
the snow is gone, green showing;
everywhere; lhe cattle are out to'
graze. Isak ploughs one day, and"
a few days later he is sowing corn/
planting potatoes. Ho, the young-!'
sters, , too, planting potatoes like.
angels; blessed little hands they
have, and wlmt can their father do
but watch?
Then Isak washes out the cart
down by the river, and puts the seat'
in. Talks to the lads about a little
ourney; he must make a little jour
ney down to the village. *
"But aren’t you going to walk?”
"Not to-day, I’ve took into my head
to go down with horse'and cart to
day.”
"Can’t we come too?”
"You’ve got to be good boys, and
stay at home this time. Your own
mother’ll bo coming very soon, and
she’ll learn you a many things.”
Eleseus is all for learning things;
he asks: "Father, when you did
that writing on the paper—what
does it feel like?”
"Why, ’tis hardly to feel at all;
just like a bit of nothing in the
hand.”
"But doesn’t it slip, like on the
tee?”
’’What slip?”
"The pen thing, that
with?”
"Ay, there’s the pen.
have to learn to steer it,
But little Sivert he was of another
mind, and said nothing about pens;
he wanted to ride in the cart; just
to sit up on the seat before the horse
was put in, and drive like that, driv
ing ever so fast in a cart without a
horse. And it was all his doing that
father’ let them both sit up and ride
with him a long way down the road.

Mary Jane’s Career.
"What shall w-e ^lo with Mary Jane ?”
is a question which thousands of fath
ers and mothers are asking every year.
Mary Jane may belong to a clover
family—-but she isn’t clever herself.
At least, her parents and sisters don’t
think she is. She enjoys “pottering
about” in the kitchen; she likes doing
housework.
Well, why not give her toe career
she is so obviously fitted for? That
doesn’t necessarily mean making Mary
’ Jane a domestic servant, though “ser
vice” Is usually quite comfortable" now
adays, and a capable girl can qualify
herself for quite a good position in it.
Where her parents can afford it, how
ever, it is better to give Mary Jane a
course in domestic science. Apart
from the teaching of this subject in
lhe schools, which is open to women
with a University training in it, there
are good positions to be had in tho
catering departments of hospitals, col
leges-, and similar institutions.-
Hotel and restaurant work also of
fers many opportunities to-day. Such
posts as manageress are likely to go
In future to too woman who has a do
mestic science training. She will
<probably have to work In too various
departments of the business for a lit
tle in order to gain experience, but it
would be worth it.

Oatmeal
Much Jw been said for and against
oatmeal end oatmeal porridge. The
old stony will bear repetition. Dr.
Johnson define fl oats ds a grain used
in England for horses, and in Scotland
for men. The dk tort was: “And where
do you find ria ch horses and such
men?"
Certain adverse critics, such as Pro
fessor Mellanby and others, object to
oatmeal because it is “deficient hi vita-
mines.” The term vitanrines appears
to have become a peg upon which cer-‘
tain learned folk are hanging a pro-’
mtecuous lot of tatters. J
W-e understand the importance of
vitaanines", but wo know that lialf a
glass of milk, a tea-spoonful of raw
cabbage, two tea-spoonfuls of cooked
cabbage, a small portion of any other
vegetable, or some fruit, raw or
cooked, will furnish all the vitamines
required for a day’s meals.
The simple old dish of oatmeal por
ridge, or other cereal, and milk, fur
nishes excellent food; but is heavy—
not light, as is sometimes supposed.
When taken in quantities beyond na
ture’s- powers of assimilation, it causes
indigestion with flatulence, due to fer
mentation.
One of the occasional results is the
“porridge rash”; this may be cured or
prevented by taking less porridge and
eating a little fruit raw or in the form
of Jam,

Mr. Sequin was formerly a police
- officer. When ill-health seized mm ho
lost weight rapidly. “I had kidney
trouble for 6 years,” he tells, “and
was given up as a hopeless case. Many
times, from sheer weakness, I have
fallen where I stood, and had to be
helped to my feet.
• Pains racked my entire system,
especially my back, which felt like
, splitting. Needless to say. I could
neither eat nor sleep normally. Weak
spells and nervousness would leave
me trembling all over. I faded away
from 201 to 135 lbs., and tried endless
treatments and remedies in those 6
years, without result.
“I had begun to despair, and when
a friend advised Tanlac I was skep
tical. But one month’s regular use of
this wonderful medicine convinced
me that I was on the road to health.
I kept on taking Tanlac and to my
delight and surprise it made mb a new

Wales’ Great Day.
Patriotic Welshmen decorated their
mantlepieces with the leek on March
1, for this plant is the emblem of their
Saint, whose feast falls on that day.
No one Is quite sure why the leek
was adopted as the emblem of Wales,
but it is believed that before a battle
with the English, St. .David ordered
the Welsh to wear leeks in their hats,
so that they might be distinguished
from tlieir foes.
Although the patron saint of Wales,
St. David’s memory was always honor
ed. in England. Henry VII. used to
give away two pounds to Welshmen
on St. David’s Day, while until the ad
vent of the Hanoverian line, kings of
England always wore the leek on this
day.
St. David was the son of a Prince of
Cardiganshire, and after receiving his
education in Menevia, he founded a
convent with very rigorous discipline
in the Vaio of Rhos. St. David event
ually became Primate of Wales, and
was buried in the Cathedral at Mene
via—now called St. Davids.
