The model husband should learn Es- peranto, It contains no swear words, The husband of a woman with a mis- sion should not drink more than just enough to produce semi -oblivion. The husband of a lady doctor should not boast of what "we" know. He doesn't know anything; his wife knows it all. ' The husband of a suffragette orator should, if possible, be born deaf and dumb. If he hasn't this virtue he should assume it. The husband of a schoolteacher should never stay out late at night without bringing home a written excuse in the morning. The husband of the landlady of a select `'boarding house should efface • himself as much as possible.. The guests will be more reconciled to their own condition if they believe he is • worse off than they are. He should never "answer back" to his wife, as such conduct has a tendency to tempt the boarders to do Iikewise. Above all else, lie should avoid being fat, for that might lead them to suspect that he was getting "bites" between meals. •His role should be that of the clinging vine, pure and simple -especially sim- ple. Britain's Biggest Landlords, There are some big landlords in Bri- tain, The Duke of Sutherland, for in- stance. owns 1,858,000 acres, or about 2,122 square miles. This holding is larger by far than most of the German grand duchies and is at least thirty times the size of the principality of Liechtenstein. It is said of his grace that he can travel right across Scotland from sea to sea without ever leaving his own land, Then there is the Duke of Buccleuch, with 460,000 acres; the Marquis of Breadalbane, with 300,000; the Duke of Richmond, with 268,000; the Duke of Fife, with 250,000; the Duke of Atholl, with 202,000; and some- where about a score whose holdings range betwenn 100,000 and 200,000 acres. There are twenty men inelud- ing those mentioned above, who hold between them more than five million acres, equivalent to a block of territory 200 miles long by nearly 40. wide, or about one -eleventh of the total Iand area of the United Kingdom.

The chief difficulties in borne butter malting come, says W. A. Barr, of Kansas Agricultural College, from im- proper churning temperatures, and more often the temperature is too high, rather than too low. The way to correct this mistake is to get a floating dairy thermometer that is correctly graduated. This can be gotten for twenty-five cents from any creamery supply house. It should be placed in the cream. As soon as the ereattl has reached the proper tempera- ture -50 degrees -churning can begin. When the temperature is too high, the butter will come in soft lumps and have a greasy appearance and contain a good deal of buttermilk which causes it to keep very poorly and become strong. The time to stop churning can be told when the butter forms irregular-shaped granules a larger than wheat kernels, and floats at a good height in the but- termilk. If the butter is churned it will contain too much moisture and will not be so good for use. Children Cry FOR FLETCHER'S CASTOR I A Is Observer Right? "Observer', writing in the Guelph Herald, on the abolishing of ' the pub- lic drinking cup, says that the real reason for sickness goes on all the while and very little is said about it. He adds: -"The real trouble is that we are getting a weaker race, and more susceptible to the germs flying around because they do not live right. People nowadays start an evening's enjoy. ment at the time our ancestors were preparing for a night's rest, Instead of taking a good 8 or 9 hours' rest, we are beginning to be content with 4 or 5` -and all at the wrong end, of the twenty-four hours. And besides in- sufficient rest we are spoiling ourselves at the table. Bolting the food, rich delicacies and very little common food are simply uniting with lack of proper care, to make us a weak, pale -faced, anaemic people, which is ready to catch anything, except a common sense way of living." The -Apple Industry. The Windsor. Record notes that ap- ples the size of an ordinary baseball, are selling there for five cents each dearer than oranges, and that a good Canadian winter apple will bring a shilling an the old country. In Strat- ford they would bring about the same price as in Windsor, This should not be. The counties of Perth and Huron are well adapted for apple growing, but as in every other branch of farm- ing there must be scientific methods adopted. Insects attack them andthey must be sprayed. The old fashioned ', idea that the orchard is the last place on the farm to receive attention has been exploded. It needs good rich soil, proper cultivation and protection from insects. and if these are given there Will he good returns. In the adjoining counties of Huron and Nliddlesei syndi- cates of Englishmen have rented or- ebards and intend to apply scientific principles. If they can make a profit and pay rent for the land, surely the farmer himself who owns the land could do it. -Stratford deacon.

It was to see this pilgrimage without a parallel that a Writer i,n The Wide World visited the place on the eve of the Ascension. People from all parts of western Roumania visit the place of miracu- lous cures. Arrived at the ground where the plant is mostly to be found, eae11 party hunts out a root. At dusk a clean white sheet is spread near it and the sick person, also in allege,, takes his place upon it. Three holy candies are then placed about the plant, as also a bowl of water. Then the patient -by proxy, for he must not speak a woad from the time he lies down, until he gets up the ted - lowing morning --says the prayers us- ed on this ooeasion.

These aunts act an turn for different persons, receiving from eaoh a. loaf of bread and whatever, else the nick per- son can afford to give.

A modern rifle and a fanaticali Arab make a bad com- bination; and recently when the Arabs had colleoted a good supply of modern. guns they planned to attack a village named Sirik, near Rask, on the. south 04-nst of Persia, just across the Strait of Ormuz. England, de- sirous of •averting trouble in that quarter, as well as to punish the Arabs for their contraband trade in guns, despatched a warship to the scene and landed a force of marines and Sepoys on the Arabian coast, The eine' who was to blame, fled over the .salad hills into the interior, where he fortified himself in a stronghold in 'the mountains. More Sepoys and 'sailors were landed, together witth m(a- ehine guns, and were despatched against the mountain. stronghold. The troops had a difficult task in dragging the guns over the hot walstes of sand, which form one of the Chief scenic features of Arabia. While the land expedition was engaged in subduing the gtronghold the warship moved ups the Peleian Gull 'summoning the Arabs to surrender their arms. This section of Arabia, like the balk of the country, is sterile and arid and its ehifting muds and abrupt sand dunes give an impression of utter de- solation. Glittering Opportunity.

He knows what is best for Canada . as an independent nation within the Empire; he recognizes all the advantages of British citizenship; but he also has a firm grasp upon the one important principle, that what the people of Canada want to -day is a policy which will do the best thing for Can- ada.
