Every Available Tillable Acre Must Contribute! Every Available • Farmer and Farm Hand Must Assist Western Canada has an enormous acreage to be seeded, but man power is short, and an appeal to the United States allies is for more men for seeding operation. Canada’s Wheat Production Last Year was 225,000,000 Bushels; the Demand From Canada Alone for 1910 Is 400,000,000 Bushels To secure this she must have assistance. She has the land but needs the men. The Government of the United States wants every man who can effectively help, to do farm work this year. It wants the land in the United States developed first of course} but it also wants to help Canada.

When the captured Chesapeake was taken to Halifax, her Captain Lawrence (“don’t give up the ship”) was buried with military honors by those against whom he had fought.

Mortally wounded, he sent his sword to the dying American captain, who died with it in his hands.

| The King’s Castles rx» I By JAMES NEWTON i I! (Copyright. 1918. by the McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) In college Yates Barlow had gone in for economics and sociology. M hen he was graduated and started in law studies, though he did not dub himself a socialist. still W persuaded himself that in the management of the rather comfortable estate left him by his grandmother he would fall into none of those errors of selfishness that too frequently — as he was convinced characterize the dealings of men of capital with those who labor tor them. And although lie decided to leave the management of the large up-towp apartment house, pretentiously dubb.ed ‘•Kings Castles.” that constituted one of his most remunerative investments in thehands of his father’s office force unyl he had finished his law course, he made it perfectly clear that he sought no profits from that undertaking that might be made at the expense of fair play to the folk who worked under the spacious roof of the apartment house. “Maybe there isn’t any eight-hour law for women In this state.” he said to his father. “Maybe there isn’t — we haven't come to it in law lecture yet. But eight hours is till any woman ought to be asked to work, and I tell yon right here that I’m not going to have any woman work longer than the one who works for me.” The genial elder man looked up with a smile, the serenity of which rather annoyed Yates. “She is ti nice little girl.” he said, with an emphasis on the verb that seemed to betoken that Yates knew to whom pronoun referred. “I guess at your age I’d have had the same ideas about' working hours for women, especially if the only woman 1 employed happened to be eighteen and as fresh as a snow apple. She is a nice girl, isn’t she?” j “If you mean Miss Sarter- —yes. She I seems to be a lot better than you ■ usually get to tend an apartment house ; telephone switchboard. That’s got nothing to do with- the fairness of ■ making her work nine hours a day or • keeping her at the switchboard on holiday s.” “But. man alive, she wants to do it.” I- explained the father. If “No girl of spirit likes to show her unwillingness to do what she’s got to do.” pronounced the son with the air -of one who felt that he possessed keen > insight into feminine psychology. “Well, you’ve got a lot more sense I than some boys your age.” was the father's only retort. “If you take a fancy to a pure-hearted country girl like Abby Sarter instead of some empty-jpated. over-dressed society girl. I you’re all right.” Yates had taken a fancy to Abby, . but for some reason he did not like to have the fact taken for granted. He i could not explain to himself just why his father's remarks That morning proved so irritating. As time went on Yates developed a keen interest in the management of ; his apartment house. He loved to think of the time when—his law course ended —he would take over the entire | management of the place himself and not actually needing to net the largest poss.ible income from it, strive ro run the house along ideal lines. He even thought of putting the girl at the switchboard on ts six-hour schedule, but somehow he never thought of ; Abby Sarter's continuing to sit at the ! switchboard when he put his plans in working order. ; Meantime Abby Sarter sat at the | switchboard in the corner of the spacious, many-mirrored, mndii-begilt entrance of Yates’ uptown apartment house, for nine hours a day,,,and never thought of having a holiday other, than ■ Sunday. Sometimes she ntnie in for i a few hours even on that day of reSt. To Yates that entrance hall was not i entirely satisfactory. He could see the i cheap plaster behind the thin veneer ■of marble on the walls. The colors of the heavy plush rugs that lay on the" tile floors looked cruder to him every i time he saw them. The lights that I blazed forth from the chandeliers'and were reflected again and again in the i long mirrors were glarish and smote I his eyes offensively. Yet he knew that it was that spacious, garish hall that attracted tennants and made them ; willing to pay good rents for small Lapartments, and he realized that he ■ would he benefiting no one but himself if he toned down the garishness to ; suit his own taste. He had no way of i knowing at first how resplendent it looked to Abby—Abby, who basked in ' the efulgence of a dozen bright lights now, and in the days on the farm had known only the glow of a single oil lamp as she sat in the farmhouse sitting room. To her rhe entrance of the j apartment house was the sum total of ! urbane luxury and elegance and the ' people who came and went through

How to Pour Liquids. In pouring liquid from a jug or botI tie the vessel should be held with the ■ opening downward, rather than horii zontally, if convenient, and swung I quickly with a circular motion. The liquid will rotate and in leaving the opening will permit air to enter continuously. causing the liquid to run out rapidly and without intermittent gurgling sounds. If the opening of the container is at one side It is best to hold the container so that the opening is at the highest point of the end, rather than at the bottom. The air may thus enter and permit a continuous flow until the container is empty. Screw Bores Its Own Hole. Evidently Charles D. Woodward, of Providence, R. 1., has often had considerable trouble in driving the conventional wood screw into hard wood, for he has developed a screw which bores its own hole as it proceeds. According to his patent claims, says the Scientific American, he has devised a countersinking gimlet-pointed screw having at the root of its point a bulge

Abby knew none of the tennants well. Why should they bother their heads about the switchboard operator, anyway? But with the curiosity and powers of observation bred in the country, she had made for herself vivid pictures of cm It individual in the house. were weddings or receptions, dinner parties. or even little dances in the apartments, and then Abby’s eyes would be even 1 brighter than usual and her pulses would quicken as she felt the proximity of so much merriment and gaiety. One of the personages that came under her constant observation was ; young Yates Barlow. To her he seemed. as the owner of all this grandeur, a veritable modern prince. Whenever | he came to the apartment he stopi»ed and chatted with her in a rather >hy but friendly way. asking vague questions about her work. After each of his chats with Abby, Yates Barlow was more than ever convinced that she was overworked. Not that she ever gave any indication : of this state of affairs by anything that she said. But how could a charming girl like Abby. he thought, sit for nine monotonous hours making connections for thoughtless tennants. i without feeling overworked? Yates took to calling up the apartment on mythical busine*; matters, just to .make sure that Abby’s voice sounded as fresh and unfagged as ever. Then spring came. After a hard week at law school. Yates was getting ready one Saturday morning to tnotor out to a week-end house party in the country. The day > was one of those warm and tempting days that sometimes come so early that they seem to be out of season. All his boyish hatred of indoor work made Yates look forward to the two days in the country with enthusiasm. Ami then he thought of Abby—country bred Abby—used no doubt to wandering about the fields and hillsides at will— 1 tied to that monotonous switchboard. ‘Til stay home myself,” thought Yates. “That girl certainly deserves a Saturday half holiday. I can’t ask any of the elevator boys to run the switchboard, but 1 can do it myself, and I am going to.” Yates concocted a hurried telephone excuse to his hostess and then with a light heart started uptown to King's Castles. He could visualize the happy smile shat would come into Abby’s eyes when he told her that she Anild take the afternoon off. He looked forward, too. with no small pleasure to the ten or fifteen minutes of instruction that he knew must take place while she showed him how to work the switchboard. “Ami if I do make mistakes.” he thought, “and the tenants get mad, nobody can fire me.” He got up to the apartment house about eleven o’clock and found. Abby as fresh and smiling as ever. “I have nothing to do this afternoon, Miss Sarter.” he began, “and it’s such a corking day. I thought perhaps you’d be wanting an afternoon off. So I thought I’d stay here and run this switchboard and you could have a little vacation. I don’t just know how but I think maybe you could show me, couldn’t you?” Abby looked at him in amazement.’ “Why, I don’t want a vacation. Mr. Barlow. I couldn’t possibly do anything that would give me as much fun as running this switchboard.” “But I mean a chance to go some place—out in the country, you know — or something like that.” said Yates. “But I've lived in the country all my life. Mr. Barlow. And this—she waved her hand inclusively about the spacious hall—this is so wonderful. I should think just to own a place like King’s . CastleS would make you happy.” Barlow looked at the girl before him with a new interest. For months he had been growing fond of her. but mixed with his liking there had been , a feeling of pity that she should be ■ forced to do uncongenial work. Now ■ he felt a new admiration for her. She : was doing the work she liked and getting a full measure of happiness from each day at the monotonous switchboard. “Just to own a place , like this” —her words rang in his ears. . Well, why shouldn’t she own King’s Castles? He could give it to her for a wedding gift if that would make her happy. He knew now that it was Abby who could make him happy and . perhaps he with King's Castles thrown in could make her happy. , “Well,” said Yates, “let me stay with you this afternoon, anyway, and let’s go some place for dinner together. Fm going to ask you if you'll help me run King’s Castles all your life?” '’Tut! Tut! A recent invention Is a pair of hors® blinders for golf players to help them concentrate their attention.

On one occasion when his reverence was giving a dinner to some friends he requested Fat not to call, but the latter, on account of the refreshments usually afforded him. turned up along with the visitors; His reverence passed the word to his friends, and Pat was left sitting unnoticed in a corner of the room during the meal. It was only when the dinner had been nearly finished that his reverence addressed the unwelcome guest: “Any news today. Pat?” he asked. “Naw.” sulked Pat. “except Dan Foley’s sow has thirteen pigs an' she lias only twelve teats.” “Thirteen pigs and only twelve teats.” exclaimed his reverence. “How will the odd pig get on. then?” “Dnnno,” snarled Pat; “’spose it'll havd to take a back seat an’ watch the others gorgin’ themselves, same as I’m doin'.” NEVER FAILS TO END MISERY OF PILES Stops Itching at Once. “Hundreds of people in this vicinity,” says Peterson, “know of the mighty healing power of PETERSON’S OINIXIENT in eczema, salt rheiim, old sores, itching skin, ulcers, pimples and all diseases of the skin.
