The Telephone, igIt is indeed a wondrous thing, this modern telephone, that will across the distance bring the speaker's lightest tone. Sometimes I sit and contemplate its weird, surprising plan, and bless the scientist so great who gave this boon to man, And then again I rant and bawl about it s many faults, and tear the blamed thing from the wall, and on the pieces waltz. Your mirthful lips are stricken dumb, sealed are the founts of song, when central (business chew- ing) gets all the numbers wrong. I sometimes wonder what we'd do if we should lose our phones, We'd be ahope- less, helpless crew! We'd nil the world with groans, To get back to our father's ways would fill our souls with aches! A message then would take three days, that now a minute takes! And then again it seems to me that life would be more gay if all telephones were burned or shipped away, For when in haste I'd use the phone to gossip with my frau. I hear stern central's monotone: "The line is busy now!" It is a nuisance and a boon, a pressing and a curse; perhaps they will improve soon, perhaps they'll make it worse. -Walt Mason.

HAD OILS ON FACE ASD BODY WAS TROUBLED FOR 8 VMS. Boils in themselves are not a dangerous trouble, but still, at the same time are very painful. They are caused entirely by bad blood, and to get rid of them it is absolutely accessary to put the blood into good con- dition. For this purpose there is nothing to equal that old and well known blood medicine, Burdock Blood Bitters. Mrs. James Mageean, Floral, Sask., writes: -"I was troubled for eight years with boils on my face and body, and I tried everything I could think of: My neighbors told me to drink water off of sour corn meal, but I kept getting worse until one day a woman in town asked me why I didn't try Burdock Blood Bitters. My husband got me two bottles, and before one was gone my boils had all dis- appeared, and I feel like a different woman. I can't tell you how thankful I am for your medicine, I will recommend it to all suffering women." Manufactured only by The T. Milburn Co., Limited, Toronto, Ont. WANTED GUARD THEIR SHADOWS. Native African* Believe They Are a Part of Themeeivea. The shadow Is tbo recognized portion of luau among modern African peoples, In \Vest Africa the natives told Dr. .Nassau that ft was possible for a hu- man tieing to have his shadow stolen or otherwise lost and for him to exist In a diseased or dying state. In this ease bis body would cast no shadow. The sauce authority says there is a widespread belief among the natives iu a dual soul, which consists of a spir- it which, as far as is known, lives for- ever In the world of spirits, and a shadow, which for an uncertain length of time hovers around the mortal re. mains. Here we seem to have confusion be- tween the spirit body and the shadow of a mat. The shadow, according to Miss Kings- ley, is one of the four souls of man. She noticed that men would march hap- pily enough tbrougb the forest or grass land on a blazing morning, but when they came to a piece of open ground they would go around It, not across it, because they were afraid of losing their shadow. They only do this at noontime. On asking some tiakw}rl why they were not anxious about losing their souls at night time, she was told that at night alt shadows lay down in the shadow of the great God and so be- came stronger. Had she not noticed bow long and strong the shadows of wen, trees and mountains were in the morning? Murders are sometimes com- mitted secretly by driving a nail or a knife into a man's shadow. -From Dr. Wallis Budge's "Osiris and the Egyp- tian Resurrection."

A doctor, according to the story, saw late one night a tine automobile halted outside a cemetery. Be hid behind a tree, for he suspected that body snatch- ers were at work, and, sure enough, in a few minutes he saw two ugly charac- ters stagger from the cemetery carry- ing a body. They placed it upright in the automobile as though it were alive, propping It securely in the back seat, and tben they hurried back to the cemetery to fill the violated grave again. The doctor in their absence lift- ed the body out of the automobile, hid It under a hedge and took its place himself. Soon the scoundrels returned. One seated himself at the wheel, and the other fixed himself in the hack seat be- side the body, so as to support it. Then, in the darkness, they glided off. After awhile the may in the rear seat said in a rather awed tone, "This body seems mighty warm for a corpse." The chauf- feur reached back his hand and touch- ed It. "Don't it, though!" he muttered, between perplexity and fear. Then the corpse, in deep, sepulchral tones, ex- claimed: "Warm? 01 course I'm warm! And if you had been where I've been for the fast two days you'd be warm too!" With -loud yells of horror the body snatchers leaped from the automobile and fled. The doctor seized the wheel and drove it home. }le has it, they say, still. -Exchange.

The Position of tho Poles, Both Peary and Amundsen made al- lowances in determining the sites of the poles. • Their position is not per- fectly constant, there being a counter clock elliptical movement of some thir- ty feet and a eounter clock circular movement of some twenty-six feet in diameter in a period of 422 days at the extreme axis of the earth. This change, however, is so slight as not to be reckoned In practical calcula- tions. Peary and Amundsen made no guesses, but took several observations from various standpoints to determine conclusively that they had reached the poles. -Christian Herald. Raising His Bluff.

Each consum- ed oats to the amount of $1, alfalfa hay $1.50 and fifty cents worth of blood meal. Besides, they consumed nearly 3,000 pounds of skim milk fresh from the se- parator. We charged them with the cash value of oats, alfalfa hay and blood meal, which was $3. Then we allowed $3 for the value of the carcass, making $6 to be taken out of the purchase price of $25, leaving $19 to be credited to the 3,000 pounds of skim milk or a fraction over 63 cents per hundred pounds.
