G. B, TAYLOR, C.M.C. August 12th, 1919. Clever Ruse He had been married aboat a year and had taken to spending bis evenings down-town with the boys. One night his conscience worried him and he thought he would phone his wife and get her to come down and meet him and have dinner with him. So he called her up. ���'Hello, kid," he began. "Say, slip on some old clothes and run down and meet me on the quiet. We'll have a good dinner and then we will get a machine and go out and smear a little red paint around. How about it?" "I'll be delighted to join you, Jack," was the reply. "But why not come up feo the house and get me? There's nobody home!" As the young husband's name is Tom, he spends hia evenings at home now.

It was ultimately decided that thc question of making the political action that has been taken already in the various constituencies in Alberta, Saskatchewan and Ontario fcdcral in scope bc left to the provinces, to decide when farmers' political conventions arc held. Hitherto only district conventions havc been held iii lhe various constituencies. Thc United Farmer"; of Alberta havc selected July 26 as thc date for their provincial convention. Co-operative action by thc Dominion aud provincial governments to meet thc feed slioitage in Alberta was suggested. In a message scut to Ottawa thc council strongly urged the Dominion government to investigate the matter and take immediate action. Reports from the different provinces with regard to political action were received, and considerable time was devoted to discussion arising from them. No definite steps on thc question of political action was taken at this session, however. , In his report J. B. Mussclman, secretary of thc Saskatchewan Grain Growers' association, suggested that the timc was opportune for calling a convention in which the different provinces which have taken independent political action would be represented. Hc said that steps should bc taken toward consolidating the movement, which heretofore has been confined to thc provinces, into a federal one.

The principal are rock" salt, lignite and copper. The Rumanian oil fields in 1910 gave 1,344,000 tons of exude. The private capital invested in -home industries was about $100,000,000. Official statistics cover 52 principal industries. Farm produce is an important pait of the nation's wealth. In 1912 the acreage for the main cereals was: Wheat, 5,100,000, barley, 1,230,000; maue, 5,130,000, oats, 943,000.

Pichon, the French foreign minister, replying lo a communication from thc chamber of deputies asking information as to the attitude of France in thc peace conference will) regard to thc Jews of Poland, Rumania and other countries, declared that from the beginning of the conference the French government endeavored to secure thorough consideration for the Jewish question and had a-��kcd that conditions of absolute equality be granted Jews in ncw or enlarged statcs. These efforts, hc said, resulted in thc treaty already signed by Poland, guaranteeing complete liberty and equality to Jews in political and religious matters. M. Pichon's communication, in closing, eulogizes the Organization Schemes for the Placing of Demobilized Soldiers on the Land "��� It is done today through land'settlement bills. In Roman "days, your Caesars or your Pompeys, and other- triumphant leaders of the legions1 of Rome turned their soldiers into farmers by the simple process of awarding ~, them Latin lands or the newly ac-" quired territories of the conquered. But thc habit has remained of turning the fighter into a farmer and his sword metaphorically into a plowshare. There is probably not a community among the English-speaking allies which has not made extensive progress with thc organization of schemes for the placing of demobil. ized soldiers on the land. In Grea/ Britain itself, 15,000 acres have zh ready been acquired by the county councils,' while another 83,000 acres are "under consideration." Then the - board of agriculture has acquired 12,- 267 acres, and negotiations are in progress with regard to a number of other large properties.

As a matter of fact, Rugglcs, senior's, inventions had been of far greater commercial profit to the company than even thc inventor had ever dreamed. A man of any business sense would have resigned his salaried position and found some-means of producing his machines for the benefit of his own interests, requiring either the Walkeasy. or some-other shoe manufacturers to pay well for thc products of his brain. Had hc done so he might have.got very rich and Rugglcs, junior, might have been touring Europe in a high-powered car with no other aim or ambition than to have a thoroughly good timc. Which proves that liis situation ivas better for his parent's lack of initiative in a commercial sense. The morning following Ruggles's f Filling His Own Shoes ��� BY ��� HENRY C. ROWLAND % V, Copyrighted. Printed by special arrangement .with Thos. Allen, Toronto. J (Continued) It had never occurred lo him that there might bc a double reason for this, one being thc wholesomencss of his open, boyish face, and thc other thc fact that thcy regarded him and his shoehorn in precisely thc same impersonal light. No doubt thcy also felt instinctively that lie would bc every bit as nice if, after taking down a dozen boxes from the shelves and ' having made several pilgrimages to thc reserve stock in the cellar, they might come to decide that their needs could not bc satisfactorily supplied. So far as his immediate forbears were concerned, Rugglcs had really no legitimate quarrel with his place in the world. His father had made shoes, or parts of shoes, all his life, for many ycars as an operative in a manufacturing concern from vvhich thc Walkeasy had partially sprung. It was there that hc met Ruggles's mother, a prttty Irish girl and also one of the factory force. Ruggles, senior, had been with thc Walkeasy Company as foreman ever since its incorporation, and being of an inventive mind, hc had evolved some highly valuable machines for stretching and stitching calfskin. Any one of thc elder Ruggles's inventions, if properly handled, might havc brought him a small fortune. As it was, thcy had bc_cn appropriated by thc company, whicli in compensation had slightly increased his salary, but had paid him no royal- tics. Unfortunately, Rugglcs, while a clever inventor, had been a poor business man, and when he had died suddenly of pneumonia, it had been found that his savings were all invested in worthless paper. Rugglcs, junior's, mother had died when he was 1 w elvc years old. So Ruggles, junior, had been left penniless on finishing school, and, following hereditary instinct, had 'gone first into the factory and afterwards store failing health no betier medicine for man or woman than Dr. Hamil- j adventure on the Marne passed in its ton's Pills could bc recommended.

There were others who had been longer in the Paris store than he, but hc ranked all but Durand in seniority of service j wilh the company. In a general way ; lhc organization of the Walkeasy 1 Shoe Company was based on thc i principles of a military service, which, however, did not prevent a more effi- jeient employee from being promoted | over thc heads of his less capable se- ��� niors ��� which same may be said to j hold true of any service, whether it j be military, commercial, or of any other sort, and nobody can deny thc justice thereof. It was thc slack hour, and Ruggles vvas looking out upon thc traffic flowing up and down the boulevard when a big, heavy limousine of American make drew silently up to thc curb, and from it there descended a handsome,young giant with a fresh skin and the hall-mark of his nationality stamped most legibly upon him. Rugglcs had a good look at him as he stepped down from the car, and his vigorous young heart went oft wilh a whirr of a motor when thc clutch is suddenly released with llie gas turned on full. Hc recognized that strong, good-humored face with its heavy forehead, high-bridged nose, masterful jaw, and dark, decp-set eyes. .At a single glance, it proclaimed thc young man as Richard P. Downing, Jr., the illustrious son of an illustrious father, vvhich latter vvas none other than thc president and principal stockholder of the Walkeasy Shoe Company of America. Rugglcs had no need to look again at that strong, rugged young-old face. In his honest heart, Ruggles was a good deal of a hcro-worshippcr, and the Downings, father and son, were his most favored idols. He had followed with the keenest interest thc career'of Dick Downing at Yale, rejoicing at his numerous successes ��� which it must bc admitted had been rather athletic and social than intellectual���and condoning his few failures as due to a lack of proper support on the part of those whom hc had striven so hard to lead to victory. Dick had captained thc football team, stroked the crew, and won other athletic victories as opportunity offered, for his had been thc good old days when trainers' jealousies had not been allowed to interfere with thc athletic glory of Yale. This brilliant epoch at an end, Dick had buckled down to work like a sturdy colt which, aftci having kicked thc door, an even greater shock was in store for Rugglcs. Dick, having descended, turned and held out his hand to assist a lady to alight, and as Rugglcs stared, fascinated, hc saw that this transcendent vision of loveliness was the pulsating original of the portraits tacked about the walls of his little Passy abode. It was actually Ruth Downing, the only daughter of Richard P. Downing and thc sister of Dick. Ruggles had a sensation as of a great many small white mice scrambling up his spine. But in spite of this Olympian invasion, hc did not lose his head. Everything was in order for the visitation of the heaven-born, anel Ruggles vvas conscious of a soul-searching exultation that thc honors of the reception were to devolve upon him and not upon .Durand. The much bebuttoncd boy whose duty it was to tend the door had scampered off to lunch, so Ruggles-opened the doors and waited. The two Olympians diel not immediately enter. They paused to examine thc display of samples ih the window, and,.-so far as Ruggles could ascertain, seemed pleased with the exposition. "Very latest models," hc heard Dick- say, as he bent his Jovian brows on the display. "Good a show as I've seen in any of our shops, al home or over here." Then tlicy came in, those shining ones, and it seemed to Rugglcs that thcy shed a glow. Perhaps thcy did, for it would havc been hard to find their like in a search through many cities; the young man strong, dominant, and kindly, with the features and body of a youthful Vulcan; the girl sweet and thoughtful of face, with very dark, examining blue eyes, a Grecian nose, the classic purity of which was madc seductive by the suggestion of an upward tilt, a full-lipped, mirthful mouth, set not precisely in the horizontal line, and a chin like her brother's, though without thc cleft��� or, at least, with no more than a suspicion of it. ; (To Be Continued.)

Five Hundred Years Ago New Europe Strangely Like a Very Old Europe What is happening now with regard lo the parcelling out, of tl.e countries in Europe into new racial divisions is very much like what it was 500 ycars ago. According to Sir Sidney Low, ncw Europe was strangely like a very old Europe. Five centuries ago;-there' was then a united and - independent Poland, including West Prussia and reaching as far as thc Baltic. There was a kingdom of Bohemia embracing the Czccho-SIovak countries, a kingdom of Hungary, a Ukrainia," or Ru- thenia divided off from Muscovite Russia, a separate Courland and Esthonia, a greater Serbia or Jugoslavia, a Greek kingdom - occupying thc rest of lhc Balkan lands, except thc Dalmatian coasts and islands, which wcrc under an Italian republic. Then timc worked its slow,but drastic changes. Most of these minor stales were stvallovvcd up in the four great imperial aggregates, Austria, Russia, .Turkey and Prussian Germany. The war leaves thc empires broken so that the map oi the 20th century will show the medieval kingdoms and republics revived, and will strikingly resemble one vvhich might havc been drawn in the fifteenth.

W. N. U. im THINK A MINUTE WHAT is your doctor's firsl question ? Why does he suspect constipation? Because 90 fo of his patients are suffering from ailments caused directly or indirectly by the action of poisons formed in a sluggish intestinal tract. These body poisons are absorbed by the blood and carried all oyer the body until the weakest organ,vunabie_ to withstand the poisonous contact, becomes infected and refuses to act properly. Unfortunately it is usually not until then that the��doctor i��5 consulted arid asked to treat the diseased organ. The surest way of punfyine the blood and preventing the foimation of these destructive body poisons is to prevent stagnation of food wasto in the intestinal tract���to prevent constipation. Constipation is not a matter to be taken lightly or neglected. Nor is it either sufficient or safe to taks castor oil, pills, salts, mineral waters, etc., in order to "force" bowel action. Such action does not cure constipation, it makes constipation a habit. Nujol it nitirely different from drug* ai it does not fore* or irritate the borrel*.

Beach is suggesting by posters that the people enjoy themselves at Christina Lake upon Labor Day. There are 100 acres of free pic-nic grounds, upon which to open yonr baskets, and eat your lunch on nature's green table while overhead the clouds of silver dance a cotillion in the blue. A fault finding knocker by the name of Jainus complains that Beach invitee the public in order to get their money without providing a greasy pole, or some other kind of prize inducement. In the past different Lodges enjoying an outing have had a program of sports at the Lake, but Beach is not a Lodge, Society or Corporation of any kind. He is just a business man who keeps a store principally for the convenience of tourists, and campers. He has boats and bathing suits for rent, and a dancing pavilion for those devoted to the poetry of motion.. He does not sell booze, shoot craps nor run a wheel. Mr. Beach also expended $700 in order to provide visitors at Christina lake with a telephone service. In consequence of all these admirable features it is little wonder that Christina Lake is a Mecca for all who love healthful and innocent sport and recreation, amid harmonious and beautiful surroundings.

It is compulsory that all ad dresses that are. to be read to the Prince of Wales in Canada must first be sent to Ottawa. At first sight this looks like a dash of autocracy in a democratic country, but it is not. It is good business. The government reads all the addresses, and then writes all the replies that the Prince will make in return. His Boyal,Highness is not familiar with. local conditions all over Canada, and if he were, he has not the time to write suitable addresses for each locality. Hence the bright lights of Ottawa are making it more pleasant for tha Prince by relieving him of a difficult burden. CREAM Contains no alum ������ leaves no bitter taste.

Look It Up "Divers weights and divers measures both of them are alike abom-" ination to the Lord."���Proverbs, 20; 10. Thinking men and women will do well to consider the striking arguments brought oufe by. the World Trade Club of San Francisco in their campaign for adoption of the units of the metric system of weights and measures'. They show a striking anomaly; That the metric system was inven- by a Briton, Jfttnes Watt, in 1783, and yet all civilized nations have adopted it exclusively} excepting the United States and Britannia, including Canada. That the BO-called "British system" of weights and measures ia of German oiigiri���a relic of the old German Hanseatic trade league��� and yet Germany scrapt it in 1871 and adopted the metric system invented by a Briton. People of Britannia and America may well ask themselves whether, they are not carrying conservatism too far. The Metric System is no untried theory. It3 principle���the principle of decimal compunction-has been used in the monetary system of the United States since 1786. If the United States had heeded Thomas Jefferson, they should also have adopted this system of weights and measures based on decimals���so simple a system that a child can learn its main features in ten minutes. The Dominion of Canada now uses decimal coinage. We know how well the decimal system works with money. It will work equally well with weights and I measures. . 1 I Autos of all kinds repaired.
