This statement, which is the result of prolonged consideration by the standing committee of the society, expressly excludes any judgment on the question of the parliamentary franchise. Its object is to embody a testimony, based on the experience of two hundred and sixty years of Quaktrism, of the essential spiritual equality of men and women. After dwelling on the historical evidences of thc equality of man and woman throughout the history of tlie Society cf Friends, tlie declaration fs made that "in the home, in the church, in the wider sphere of public life, the service rendered by women is recognized as having been of pr:celess worth; it is universally felt among us that, had their activities been lettered by artificial limitations, __.the loss to themselves and to the community would Dr'r.ik Under the Pulpit Residents of Belluve East in South Africa are enjoying a joke at the expense ol! a Presbyterian congregation whose church is situated not a thousand miles from that district. Temperance above all things ha.. fceen preached in. the church with unfailing insistence from the pulpit Lately some people living inv the neighborhood were interested in the fact that there was always a large number of Kaffirs about the churci ,in little kaots and clusters, and at last someone���������a trifle more curious than the rest���������asked if there was uot a native mission or chapel attache-! to the church. This not being the case, it becc.me difficult to account foi* the presence of the natives, to whom one would hardly suppose a Presbyterian church for Europeans to be an object of particular interest or attraction. No doub: the church, officials were puzzled, ar.d so they set to work to solve the mystery. The solution is alike tragic, humorous, and simple.

Hales Turner, of Gravesend, a famous potter. ��������� His scheme is that, apart irom the sides and framework, ships should be built of plate porcelain.

Hen's Laying Depends on Feeding Undoubtedly many chickens eat more than they* >ifced, but-the hen that is properly ted will turn her surplus into eggs, the hen that is fed barely.a maintenance ration is necessarily unprofitable. On* reason the beginner with a small flock fe _ largely from the table scraps can figure out so low .a cost of feodin.*. chickens is because he doesn't co-it the cost of the food he would need to buy were it not for the scraps. TI12 right way to figure-, the. cost of r* hen's >:eed is not by the value of the table scraps at first cost, nor is it ������������������ right to estimate that they cost nothing, but by what it would cost to replace them witli poultry food.

Long foreheads, with smooth skin and no wrinkles, characterize peopie of a quiet, rsedate nature. Well arched brows, with one slight perpendicular wrinkle, belong to wise and discreet parsons. Foreheads prominent just above the eyebrows denote strong individuality. A perfect forehead should havo almost straight eyebrows, clear and well defined, but not heavy. A. long firehoad shows Intelligence; a short one act t\ Ity. A broad -orelitad denotes great mental ability; an Irregular, knotty ono a bold, origlna and Investigating mind.

It has placed farmers with seed grain for sale m [touch with purchasers. It has run, in conjunction with the provincial governments? "Better Farming" demonstration trains. Through its development branch, it puts a roof over the newcomer's head and gives him a definite start in his farming operations. In 1913 it built 237 houses, 220 barns, and other buildings, drilled 133 wells, strung 274 miles of fence, broke 8,400 acres, ploughed or backset 6,000, disced 36,* 500, harrowed 13,000, seeded 5,800, and harvested 2,000���������all of which operations were spread over an area <00 miles by 200 miles. Through Us town-site branch, it creates new towns along its system at the rate of about one a week all the year round. Through its industrial branch, it attracts manufacturers, wholesalers and retailers to these new towns and also to established towns and cities. Through its engineering branch it controls the operation and maintenance of the greatest individual irrigation project on the American continent. Thi. irrigation block lies east of tlie city of Calgary, and contains over three million acres, divided into three sections, of which the western section is practically all developed and the eastern section now beginning to be settled. It also administers a smaller irrigation block containing some 125,- 000 acres near Lethbridge, in Southern Alberta. Through its forestry branch it is engaged in stimulating tho growth of trees on the prairies, having started a competition to that end with priz. money aggregating $2,500. The tores- try branch also patrols the valuable timber limits owned hy the company, and takes measures to prevent forest (ires; it plants troea along the railway lines for windbreaks, to replace the old wooden snow fences, and takes care of thc heautillcation of gardons at railway stations. The department has its own nurseries nt Wolsleiy, Sask., and its own mill at Bull River, 1..C., from which, and by purchase from othev lumber mills and rancher!., nre obtained tho ties, polos, piling and other lumber necossary in railway construction. The coal mines branch controls four mines, threo In Alberta, ono in Saskatchewan, of which one of those in Alberta (l.nnkhe.id) Is the only anthracite mino being worked in tho Dominion of Canada. This branch employ-, nt times rs many as 2,000 men, and Iiuh 11 yearly output of about, eight thoiiHand tons of coal.- The agency organization of the department, of natural resources Is vast, and Includes Its own offices and roppo- siMitsitlvcs In '"aniirtii, the United States, tlreat l.i'ltaln, Holland, Boll-Mum nnd the Sciiiidinnvlnn countries.

To attach knife handlos till the han dies with equal parts of powdered resin and silver saml. Reat lite-end of tho knife, press it tlrmly into the handle and coo) in water. To cleau rusty knives use powdered bath brick mado into a paste with uaraffiu anl apply it with a tiann-sl. Finish off with dry bath brick and a soft rag, which will leave a splendid polish. When surplus i,ilver knives are put away the blade of each one should be rubbed thoroughly and carefully with olive oil. Wrap extra knives, each one separately, in paper and store them in as dry a place as possible. Every thre3 months knives not in use should be taken out and looked at to see if there be any signr*. of rust. Put fresh oil on them before; putting them away again. When the knives are required for use wash the oil off and rub each knife with knif? polish. What French Agriculturists Are Doing to Increase the Crops French agriculturists are paying a g^eat deal of attention at "present to possible methods of cultivation of grain crops to increase the yield. Instances have already been worked out where twenty seeds ot grain yielded I an increase o" over 700,000 within,a I period of one year. The principle is simple It consists iu preparing tho seed bed in widely spaced lines on mellow land. At the end of two months the tufts springing from each grain are divided and replanted. Finally oarth is. hoed up about the new plants in such a manner as to provoke growth from all points brought into, intimate eontae. with the spil. Bach of these numeroiu shoots bears an 'ear In reality It is a combination of "slipping," ti-ai-.-_pla-.ting and pruning. The methods wero practiced by the Chinese centuries ago, and the principle was*worked out experimentally in England as oarly as 1776. An Algerian colonist has been planting wheat and oats in the same fields for five years without an application of manure. He makes his fiurrows thirty- six inches apart and plants the seeds therein at a distance of twenty incite.! from each other. He harrows con stantly.

He Used Dr. Chase's Ointment For Protruding Piles With Splendid Results Too often a doctor can only think of an operation when asked for a treatment ."or piles. Some are sufficiently broad-minded to use the most effective tr -atment available, which is undoubtedly Dr. Chase's Ointment, as was proven in the case referred to in this letter. Mr. Simon E. Jones, Railway street, Inverness, N.S., writes: "I have found Dr. Chase'3 Ointment the best treatment obtainable for protruding piles. For three years I suffered from piles, and was advised by a local physician to try Dr. Chase's Ointment. I had tried many treatments iu vain, and therefore icnow which is the best. I can highly recommend Dr. Chase's Ointment, and you are at liberty to use this statement." The record of cures of every form of piles which stands behind Dr. Chase's Ointment is the strongest guarantee you can have that it will promptly relieve and cure this ailment, even in. the most aggravated form. 60c a box, all dealers.

To Tell Fertile Eggs The simpliest, easiest and surest way of testing hatching eggs for fertility is to set them in the incubator or under a hen and allow them to incubate for seven days, says a contributor to the Farm and Fireside. Then remove the hen or take the tray out of the incubator and allow the eggs to cool for ten minutes. Then hold each egg to the cheek. The warm eggs are the fertile eggs and the cold eggs are those that have no chicks in them. Eggs that are only slightly warni have a very weak germ. The longer the eggs are incubated the easier it is to pick out eggs that will hatch. No Asthma Remedy Like it.--Dr. JY D.

From Western Canada, where the conditions of eniictment were to some extent misunderstood up to a day or two ago* it ��������� is low announced that there has been? a regular flood of applications. Thess men, who mainly belong to cavalry regiments, will have equal opportunity with eastern regiments to go. to the front as infantry men. Mobilization will start almost immediately, and every volunteer who has been accepted, .will be notified by his commanding officer to report forthwith at his regimental headquarters. For those who have failed to secure places on the fijegt contingent, the consolation is giver, that they will^ probably have an opportunity a little later to go with a second contingent. Col. Hughes stated ihat it was practically certain that a further contingent of from .five to ten thousand would be needed in the near future. They will be required as reserves to make any deficiencies in^ the first army "division through illness cr wounds. \ Applications are still pouringY.n j. from all parts of Canada as well as " from the United States. ? Enough applications from the United States have come in to make up five or six companies. One man telegraphed the minister that he could .bring 200 men. Even from tlie pehiteiitiaries men are writing, stating that their time is nearly eixpired, r.nd that they want to-be let out in order to fight for the flag. A considerable number of deserters, who had tired oi! the monotony of barracks life, are coming back and asking to be taken on again. Col. Mc- Veity of the sixty-Second Regiment of St. John, ��������� telegraphs that he wantjs to bring tho whole 600 men of his regiment. Each of tht Winnipeg regiment- want to go almost at full strength. As an evidence 6f the fact that the- women of Canada are not holding back from letting their husbands or sons go tO'-the front, It is stated that bo far the department has received requests from c.nly two women fishing that their sons bo not allowed to go. In tho list of volunteers are a number of Germans and Austrians, who havo become naturalized citizens of Canada.

As a matter of fact plans for tlie. protection of all the principal coal deposits on the Pacific, as well as on .he Atlantic had been prepared In peace time and the necessary munitions and troops required in the carrying out of these plans assigned to their several positions. So, although pmple protection has oeen provided foi all the country's important coal deposits, it? has been accomplished exj. editiously and ^quietly without attracting much attention. The heaviest and' most modern ordnance in tho country has been posted in carefully selected positions guarding the various coaling stations and coal ports and they are in charge of some of Uie .best artillerymen in the Canadian rserv.ee. Ample magazines and ammunition? have been supplied and forced of infantry detailed to supply the batteries and altogether noth. ing has been left undone to guard? the coal depots fro.Ti. attack. The coastal coal depots, east and west, have in fr.ct been quietly transferred intc strong defensive positions armed with powerful guns.

Rider Haggard at a dinner given to the members of the Dominion's Royal Commission by Mayor Frink, for the cfty, at the Unicn club? Sir Rider referred to such preparations for war as he had casually observed here, and said it seemed* to be carried on in a sort of holiday spirit. He then asked all present if they understood the situation. If Germany and Austria won that would be .the end of Britain, of the empire, of Canada, of civilization, as we now have it, for a long time to come. In a few tense, sentences, which held the dinner party breathless, he indicated the magnitude and crucial -quality of the conflict and Canada's vital interest in it. * - No risk of defeat could be Justified,: no matter what sacrifices were necessary, was the laoson to be emphasized. SAVE YOUR STRAW Movement to .Have Farmers Refrain From; Bur.iing ������t This Year Moose Jaw, Sask.���������It is the opinion of several well known stock raisers and ranchers ir this district-that some action should be taken by the governments to stop the farmers from burning straw as is the practice in the threshing season. The hay crop is -light this year,��������� and with the likely heavy demands for feed from Great Britain, oats will be at a premium, and that noxt spring straw maw prove very valuable for feed for stock. It is sug- ge-rte-t that ministers of agriculture in the three western governments get together and publish an order In council prohibiting the practice .till further or ders. There is a certainty-of hay going to high prices and the west will be burning money in straw while the harvest is progressing.

In the meantime business generally is partially at a staiadstill, owing to the breakdown, of credit, amd' the uncer- tainities regarding future conditions. To some extent, the excitement which ensiled on the first intimation of a general war has calmed down, and hnclnase * T-f-a*.<__r--_i ot._- cri-corl .1.. f.-nfl ������f.-������_-__w.^>_ . ___v . *���������>.._������- .*- w .- ������/^~-V-J.._jr -t--\*. seriously facing- the new conditions. Retrenchment by.- cutting down avoidable exepnd:tur. is bound to mark the trend of business for some time to come, and it wih greatly lessen the volume of bus'nessY Such a course, however, will In-time result in stronger and heal-hie-' conditions, and for the present the only sure way is to go slow. The grain trade is one of the chief trades affected by the war? but besides the w-U* it is uow well kndwnc that the world'., grain markets are affected by the short, crop yields this season. No country except the United States has produced an extra supply of Tv'heat this yeai, and some countries have fallen considerably short of their usual average. The United States, according to their August crop estimates, have raised 675,000,000 bushels of winter wheat, and 236,000,000 bushels of spring wheat, together 911,000,- 000 bushel- compared with 763,000,000 bushels, the final estimates of the total yield in 1913. or 148,000,000 bushels more this year than last. Other coun tries, such as France, Italy, Russia, Hungary and Canada are all much under their average yield, owing to the unfavorable growing .weather. An estimate of the world's wheat production this year by a .ending authority makes the total quantity 3,712,000 bushels, against 3,956,400 bushels last year,' which was the largest world's production on record. Thus, shortage in production along v. i.h. the war, is going to keep prices high for the coming twelve months at least. During the past week the.wheat markets in the United States, and oar Winnipeg market, have continued to harden and advance in a remarkable manner considering the difficulties aud uncertainities surrounding the prospects of immediately getting any large quantity of wheat exported fro_-i this continent. Tlie movement in prices has been accompanied by wide fluctuations, although without the excitement that pervaded tlie markets a; yeek ago, because the demand by clai.r.ng houses for ' not less than 10c pa: bushel margin on all trades, keeps down the volume of speculative business and.that prevents excitement. The New York market has been steadier than, any other and has only advanced 2%c to 2%c. Chicago is up 5>/������c to 6-Vijc, but Minneapolis and Duluth both show an advance of 12c per bushel, while Winnipeg is 8c to 9c higher. It i3 evident that the spripg wheat markets are influenced by the unfavorable reports of spring wheat shrinkage from heat and drought. The -writer of these market letters has for the last two or three years . frequently drawn attention to the fact that the world's consumption of wheat has ."-een keeping full pace with tlve increase In production, and this can easily te seen in the fact that although tlie world's wheat crops in 1912 and 1913 were by a long way the largest ever produced, there has not been in th*) past two years any unusual accumulation of visible supplies anywhere; indeed, at the end of June last the aggregate world's visible supply was 37,000,000 bushels less'than at the same date r*n 1913, and it had got down to the very low aggregate of, 98,000,000 bushels, which is less than ten days worlri'ti daily requiromont. This com ini. yoar, therefore, with an estimated worli's production of about 250,000,000 bushels less than last year, and the probably calamitous effect on production in the countries at war and the extra requirements of these same countries owing to tho war, it cannot but bo that prices of wheat will bo .high, and at times through speculative operations as well ns through sup. ply and demand, they will bo subject to unusual advances. Owing to the disorganization of business over tho world grain statistics aro liable to bo Incomplete for bomo time.

Expert Discusses. Possibility of Germany Sending Land Forces Across *-���������'?"���������' ��������� the Channel London.���������Archibald llurd, a naval expert, writing ior the Daily Telegraph, says: "Whatever cliange has occurred in the last few days in the naval and) military situation, certainly does not weaken the argvments as to the impossibility of an invasion of England. "An. invasion across the North Sea must be preceded by a battle in the North Sea and a German, victory. Only a sailor can appreciate the obstacles In the way of such an adventure, carried out in the face of a superior naval force. It involves the enemy handicapping his fleet with large numbers of transports crowded with sailors. "If. small and "of light draught the transports coii'.d approach fairly close to the.point of disembarkation but such small vessels can carry only a few men. Shoulc, large transports be employed, ;arge numbers of troops can he carried, but these vessels must keep well off shore during the process of disembarkation, owing to the depth of water they would draw. "With every port on the TEnglish coasts guarded by land and sea, it is difficult to perceive what object could be served by landing a few thousand German troops in a country which has over a .million men under arms. "Such an adventure would not cause more thau a temporary panic in the district directly affected and this speedily would give place to a feeling of confidence that in a very short time the invaders .vould be shot down or captured. "Nevertheless, it is possible that Text of the Lesson, Matt, xxii, 1-14. Memory Ver--e&. 8, 9���������Golden Text, Luke xiii, .34���������Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. This parable of the marriage of tha king's son is found only in the gospel by Matthew and sets before us both the present phase of a rejection of the invitation and also a glimpse of the consummation; but briefly the former, Miss Habershon says in her book on the parables that they cover the whole period from the first advent of our I_ord ��������� jegifS Christ in incarnation id His second advent In glory. His incarnation is m.pl_cd; His life,*ministry and rejection -.--.re described, and His death is prophesied, but most of the pictures represent the time of His absence or the epoch of His return. They, were not merely the words of the man Christ Jesus, _> great teacher and a God sent prophet. They were, like all that He sa.d, the words of His Father given Kim to speak, for. He saiO, "Whatsoever I speak, therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak" (John xii, 50). He taught also "through the Holy Spirit" .Acts i, 2; x, 38), so.'Jiat in all His teaching we have the Trinity, even as in the parable of Luke xv we see the love of the Son, the Spirit and the Father. ��������� Some aspects of the lesson today, such as the treatment, of the invitations, are similar to those of the great supper of Luke xiv, 16-24. The king and His son and the servants are suggestive of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. The words "Behold, 1 have prepared * '���������*.'.*��������� and all things are ready/' of verse 4 indicate that "salvation is.of the Lord" (Jonah ii, ._*)-, from first-to last, just as in Gen. iii, 21, the Lord God provided redemption clothing without any help from Adam and-Eve. as neither Noah nor Moses nor David nor Solomon had any say. whatever in the design,, or construction cf ark or tabernacle or temple, as the disciples helped nothing in providing the food for the five thousand, so that purpose and the working'of it out in the whole matter are Wholly of God. Nothing can be added to the full preparation which He has made. See also Isa. lix, 16. It is ours to heed the invitation, "Come unto the marriage" (verse 4), and to accept thankfully all that- the kins has so bountifully provided. The abundance of the King's table whicli we are privileged continually to enjoy, will fill us with joy and peace if we are only believing (II Sam, ix, 13; Rom. xv, 13}. . ���������The story of a marriage takes us back to Gen. ii, 22-24, and on to the marriage of the Lamb (Rev. xix, 7, 8), the former in Eden being a type of the cause many Germans believe that if one or more of them were successfully carried out am. troops landed en the British coast i- feeling of panic would be thereby created in this country, which woulc. have au appreciable effect both here and on the continent."
