Dorothy Doane, engaged to Tom Ar- nold, had called at his house to see his mother about arrangements for the wedding. It happened that Tom and his friend, Ned Winthrop, were' in the smoking room and unconscious of Dorothy'sadjoining presence in the adjoins g /parlor. She overheard her fiance talk. lug with bis chum. red was saying: "So you're to be swung oft next week? Poor fellow! You'll feel like a muzzled dog, a chained dog, a dog with his tail between his legs. 1f you smoke she'll bother you till you give it up that she may have the money you spend on it for hats. If you stay at home much of the time she'll make, you feel what it is to have a man If you all dago house about the y to out she'll accuse you of leaving her to mope at home while you are enjoying yourself in the gay world. As for me, she'll brook no rivalry. She'll freeze me out the first" Dorothy heard no more, for at this point Tom shut the door. The honeymoon was over, and Ned Winthrop was invited to spend the week end at the newly married cou- ple's country place. When Arnold in- vited himNed tried to beg off by say- ing he had no mind to be snubbed by the bride with a view to breaking off the last vestige of intimacy between himself and the husband. But Tom urged him, and he gave in. Mrs. Ar- nold received him cordially. Moreover, she had provided a young lady friend to meet him. Miss Sate Rathbone bad been select- ed from all of Mrs. Arnold's acquaint- ances as the moat competent person to make him eat his words overheard by her before her marriage. The hearts Mies Rathbone had smashed were like the sands of the sea. Men had fought over her, had moaned over her and groaned over her. And now Ned had been brought to the house in order to be made to suffer for his strictures on. wives. The net was set immediately. Miss Rathbone gave Mr. Winthrop a glance TO ADVERTISERS.

Structure In Canada Is Now Under Way at Cardston; Work on the first Mormon Temple on British soil is now well under way .in the Mormon centre for Can- ada, Cardston, Alberta, The struc- ture will be of granite from the Rocky Mountains of, British Colum- bia. Machinery valued at $10,000 has been installed on the temple ground teed cutting will be done there as fast as the rough material can be. delivered. As ea is stone is cut and dressed it will be placed in the wall. The structure will cost at least $300,000, . This money will come mostly from tithing sent to headquar- ters at Utali, and the contractors `ave the assurance of the church that all money needed will be( forthcoming when asked for. Bishop Nlbley, who has charge of the business affairs of the Mormon Church throughout the world, will have direct control of the. wont, but will not be on the 'ground. A local inspector and superintendent of construction will direct the local activities. The Church of Jesus Christ of Lat- ter Day Saints have no temples at present outside of the State of Utah, where the great Salt Lake Temple stands. The new Canadian building will be the first to be erected on Brit- ish soil and the first outside of the State of Utah. The Salt Lake Temple cost $4,000,000, and was 45 years in building. The other Utah temples, lvianti, St. George and Logan, cost all told about $3,000,000. Material at the time they were erected was very costly and transportation diffi- cult. It is stated by th, authorities to -day that as good building can be done to -day for about one-third of the cost. So it would seem that the Canadian Temple evil, compare favor- ably with any of the Utah structures outside' the great Salt Lake Temple. There are in Canada to -day close to 10,000 Mormons, and the Cardston Temple will be for their own use. Mormons in the northern United States, who are much nearer to the international boundary than the State of Utah, will also have the Canadian temple as their shrine for receiving the higher ministrations .,f the church. As a regular place of meeting the Mormons of Cardston have a taber- nacle, seating some 1,500 people, and this on all special occasions is filled to overflowing. It has been neces- sary to divide the Cardston church, malting two separate organizations. As a result of exberiments the spe- cialists of the department of agricul- ture have discovered that a small amount of ordinary borax sprinkled daily on muntire will effectively pre- vent the breeding of the typhoid or housefly. Similarly the same substance applied to garbage, refuse, open toilets, damp floors and crevices in stables, cellars or markets will prevent fly eggs from hatching. Borax will not kill the adult fly nor prevent It from laying eggs, but its thorough use will prevent any further breeding. The investigation, which included ex- periments with many substances, was undertaken to discover some means of preventing the breeding of flies in horse manure without lessening the value of this manure as a fertilizer for use by the farmer. It was felt that if some means of ptleventing the breeding of flies near a human habitation could be devised the diseases spread by these filthy germ carriers could be greatly reduced. While the "swat the fly cam- paign." traps sed other devices for re- ducing the number of typhoid carrying flies are of value, they are of less im- portance thprevention breeding. It was realized, however, n the preventing that no measure forP breeding of tiles would come into com- mon use unless it was such that the farmer could use it on his manure pile without destroying its usefulness for growing plants and without introduc- ing ace that fl into the so any in g would interfere with his crops. As a result of experiments carried on at the Arlington farm in Virginia and New Orleans, La., the investiga- tors found that 0.52 of a pound of borax or 0,75 of a pound of calcined colemanite (crude calcium borate) would kill the maggots and prevent practically all of the fifes ordinarily, breeding in eight bushels of horse ma- nure from developing. This was prov- ed by • placing manure in cages and treat- ed with borax and results from piles comparing g the p rated from untreated piles. The borax, it was found, killed the fly eggs and maggots in the ma- nure and prevented their growth into flies. in the case of garbage cans or refuse piles, two ounces of borax or calcined colemanite, costing from 5 cents a pound upward, according to the quan- tity which is purchased, will effectu- ally prevent flies from breeding. In feeding to bogs garbage that con- tains borax care is also recommended, especially when the animals are being fattened for market. Boras is not a very poisonous substance, and the feeding of garbage that contains it to hogs is not likely to be a'senious mat- ter. On the other hand, boniix large quantities does produce dis- turbances, and for this reason a certain amount of care Is advisable. substance The method for using .t sprinkle in the case of stables is to the borax or colemanite in the quanti- ties uant)ties given above by means of a dour sifter or other fine sieve around the outer edges of the pile of horse ma- nure. The manure should then be sprinkled- immediately with, two or three gallons of water to eight bushels of manure. It is essential, however, to, sprinkle a little of the borax on the ma- ,nure as it is added daily to the pile instead of waiting until a, full pile is obtained,; because this will prevent the eggs which the dies lay on fresh ma- nure from hatching. As the fly mag- gots congregate at the outer edge of the' manure pile most of the borax should be sprinkled there.

"Daring breeds daring; a spirit of honorable rivalry, appealing not mere- ly to individuals but to nations, is engendered; each fresh reclamation from 'the unknown reveals fresh ;ground to be won that is worth the winning; every sacrifice entailed is -the parent of future sacrifice. I "It is the business of geographical societies, while Polar activity is on the upward grade, to lend such assist- ance and guidance to the tendency as they may; to bear in mind that ad- dition to knowledge rather than the mere pursuit of adventure is their province; and to ensure the success- ful garnering and adequate publica- tion of tho reeults." Speaking of the Scott expedition, he declared that they did triumph, even in death and disaster. For they left to their countrymen, not merely the record of great work accomplished - how great would be seen when the scientific records were published -=but that the inspiration of an example t would live in the annals of the human race. .

The Hospital takes care of sick and de- formed children, not only in Toronto, side of the city. but in the Province, out ears This comingyear, of all they Th has a more in the Hospital's history, serious outlook, as regards funds for maintenance, than any year that has passed its calendar. So many calls are being made on the To- ronto and Ontario to help the soldiers of the Empire, that as I make my daily rounds through the wards of the Hospital, and see the suffering chil- dren in our cots and beds, the thought strikes me as to whether the people will as of old, with all the demands made upon them, answer our appeal and help to maintain the institution that is fighting in the never-ending battle with disease and death, in its endeavor to save the stricken little ones in the child -life of Ontario. Last year there were 394 in -patients from 210 places outside of Toronto, and in the past twenty years there have been 7,000 from places in the Province other than Toronto. It costs us 32.34 per patient per day for maintenance. The munieleelftles pay for patients $1 per patient per day; the Government allows 20 cents per patient per day; so, deducting a-20 from $2.34, it leaves the Hospital with $1.14 to pay out of subscriptions it receives from the people of Toronto and the Province. '('Inc shortage last year ran to $18,000. Since 1880 about 1,000, cases of club feet, bow legs and knock knees have been treated, and of these 900 had perfect correction. •) Nearly all these were from different parts. of the Pro- vince outside of the city of Toronto. Remember that every year is a war year with the Hospital; every day is a day of battle; every minute the Hospital needs money, not for its own sake, Nut for the' children's sake.

The rubber core ball has been in use since 1848. The early experiments with rubber, however, were far from successful. It was found that the first balls as fashioned would travel a very short distance, after leaving the club that their inventor almost decided to abandon experiments. In tact, he gave the discarded balls to some cad- dies, who proceeded to amuse them- selves vigorously--eo vigorously that the balls were Boon covered with cuts. It was then seen that in this state they carried much further than when new. So the next mould was nicked in order to give the rubber a shape similar to that of the damaged balls.
