Down the lonely path\ncomes a Jewish (ratter, his puck up,\nback, bis wad buckled tight lu belt.\nAt a sharp turn in the road a half\ndozen desperadoes leap from bushes.\nThere's a short, fierce struggle, u\ncrushing blow on the skull uf the way.\nfarer, and he lies blcedng and senseless.\n\"Passed by on the Other Side.\"\nThe traveler's must naked and half\ndead.

There's but one nil*\newer, \"The Good Samaritan.\" Nothing In all teachings of Christ brings\nout the whole gospel better thnn till*\nparable. The matchless story wilt\nnever lose Its force. Accident ami\nwant are still the common lot of mankind. All men are liable to full amouir\nthleves. Disease Is the thief tbat rob*\nmen of wcath. Misfortune snatchc*\naway the savings of a lifetime. Slander filches a good name. Strong drink\n. Is a robber that deprives men of\n| health, happiness and hope of heaveu.\nThree Sources of Misfortune.\nj Tbe miseries of mankind are of\nthree sources.

The victim nods his head. \"It sure gets ye\nin the end,\" he vouchsafes. \"It\" refers to the life be has led. Dirt,\ndrink nnd dissipation have an byproducts distress, disease and denth.\nA third source Is from our fellows.\n\"Man's Inhumanity fo man,\" etc. The\ntraveler lu the parable fell not among\n! wild beasts, but human beasts of prey.\nJtobbery and murder are not conllned\nto tbe desolate Jericho rond, but are\nmatters of dally occurrence In New\nYork, New Orleans.

I know what your\nanswer will be, Cprtainly not: Then\nwhy do you subject the young author\nto such treatment, because the ideas\nfrom his embyro mind are not thoroughly correct? It is a regrettable\nfact thnt a few hasty sarcastic sentences of unjust criticism have repeatedly been the means of stopping,\nyea, even the progress of many a\nyoune genius.

It is somewhat\nsimilar in the case of adults, although possessing enormous wealth, it\nis not always beneficial; but, on the\ncontrary, frequently irksome, and\nproves in many instances decidedly\ndetrimental to the acquisition of that\npriceless gem\u2014\"contentment\"; Inasmuch as atlluence oftentimes induces\nBullishness, which undoubtedly subsequently degenerates into avaricious-\nness.\n\"Happy is he, who, though the cup\nof bliss\nHas ever shunn'd him when he thought to kiss;\nWho still, in abject poverty or pain,\nCan count with pleasure what small\njoys remain.\"\nAn unfortunnte poor man, who had\nnever drunk sufficient water to war-\nrnnt the disease, waH reduced to such\nan exceedingly critical condition by\ndropsy, that it was deemed absolutely necessary to send for a doctor.

C.\nl\nCONCERNING HEALTH and BEAUTY\nBy Mrs. Hlnry Symes\nGR\/iariijLuN\n\u2022**\u25a0 Gmtfr\nHAVE you ever noticed how few-\nwomen have graceful feet and\nankles?\nJust look at the feet of the\nWomen.who sit opposite you In the trolley ear .-utile morning when you are riding down town, aud I wager you will\nnot find mine than one. or at the most\ntwo, out of fifty who have really good-\nlooking feet and thin, graceful ankles.\n\"Why fa this?\" you ask.\nSimply because the average woman\ntakes no thought of her feet, excepting\nto u-y in make them Ut Into shoes that\nare a also too small, porhapa.\nIf women would only realize the im-\nportance of u pretty foot and ankle,\nespecially in these days, when short\ngklrtfl are the fashion, they would be\nkeen to improve their looks as much as\npossible.\nThis Is not hard to do\u2014It only takes a\nlittle time every day, nnd If certain\nexercises are care-fully followed and persisted In, n few months' time will show\nWonderful Improvement in the thick\nankles ami heavy, clumsy-looking feet.\nIn tho first place, when you aro sitting; in a street car or a public plate\nwhere tiie feet show plainly, always\nkeep them both firmly on tho floor. It\nIs a mark of IH'-breedlng to sit with tho\nknees crossed or the feet turned sideways with the solo of the shoe plainly\nin sight.\nTo make the ankles slim and graceful,\npractice for ten minutes each day twisting the foot around in o rotary motion,\nusing tho ankle as an axle. Use one foot\nat a time for live minutes.\nTho correct way to walk id to let the\niocs strike the floor first and then to\nbring the heel down gently. Practice\nwalking slowly around the room several\ntimes every day, taking each step carefully and all the while holding the body\nerect. This not only gives strength and\ngrace to the foot and ankle, but brings\nInto play the leg muscles, develops them\nand helps to give poise to the body.\nWhen the feet are tired, hot and aching from a long walk, bathe them With\n\u2022warm milk, if possible, have enough\nmilk In a basin to Immerse hotli feet\nand let them soak for twenty minutes\nor half an hour.\nMilk and water, or water softened\nwith baking soda, makes a splendid\nfoot bath to ease tired muscles. Milk\nsoftens the callous skin and will bo\nVuuml a great aid |n keeping the feet\nADVICE ON SOCIAL\nCUSTOMS\n\/\u2022yleucl 'a\/a\u00bby-u,-H\u20ac^\nHOW TO BECEIVE\nI AM going to talk today about tho\nduties of the hOBtese and the host\nat a large afternoon tea ur reccp-\n, tlon, If there be a hearty wish to make\nevery one enjoy his visit, a few ot the\nformal detain can soon be mastered.\nFlint, let me emphasize, punctuality,\n. Never, under any conditions, let the\ni Iim guest arrive before you arc fully\nprepared to receive.\nThe position for hostess and host Is\nat the right nr the door through\nwhich tho guests enter. Daughters\nwho are being Introduced to society, or\nany special guest of honor, stand beside the hosloaa.\nAh a gue.it eiilers the hostess should\ncordially offer her hand, Then should\nfollow an Introduction to those In line,\nif tho guest bo unknown to them.\nWhon thoro is opportunity a hostess\nNhonld talk a llttlo with the guests\nns lliey appear. This can tie dono\neasily at the beginning of a reception.\n.When tin- arrivals are more frequent\nthere will he tlmo f'\u00bbr only a brief\ngreeting ami tpiieU Introductions.\nThe hostess should Bland at her first\nplace, and must not desert It even for\nfood or rest. A guest receiving with\nher, however, need not stay so strictly\nIn the one position.\n\" Daughters who receive with their\nmother should from time to time leave\nher side and mingle with the guests.\nAfter perhaps the first hour of receiving' this can be done. They can move\nabout Ihe room, Introduce guests to one\nanother, arrange for quick service In\ntiie dining room and altogether keep\npersons amused nnd comfortable.\nA husband stands beside Ids wife\nduring the greater part of the afternoon offering a cordial hand and greeting, As tiie guests1 arrivals are fewer,\nho may turn his attention to the entertainment. He should introduce, escort ladles to the dining room and bo\nevery place Hint needs his help. This\nIs particularly true of a bridegroom at\nhln first reception.\nWilli the well-laid plan of receiving\nworked out efficiently, half of the work\nof an afternoon lea la accomplished, I\nshall speak again on this Interesting\nsubject,\nIn closing today. Irt me omphaslse the\nfact thai too large receptions are mistakes. Better It Is lo havo two less\npretentious teas In perfect control than\none large failure, You can do this\npossibly with u couple of weeks between, ami. naturally, your lists will\nho made up of different names.

Marie and are reserving the total output of the Helen Iron Mine at\nMlchtpicoten for their own furnaces.\nTHE IRON MINES OF TORONTO\nThe Heli n Iron Mine has produced\nover 1,500,000 tons of excellent ore,\nbut the mining of iron ore in Ontario haa been and still is on a ver>'\nsmall scale compared with the American side of Lake Superior.\nA comparison with the output from\nthe American mines will show the\nfuio.\nIt is stated in the Ontario Bureau\nof Mines 1908, page 202 as follows :\n\"There at* the same rock formation\nin Northern Ontario as is found throughout the iron ranges of Michigan,\nWisconsin and Minnesota and they\ncontain the iron series that are in\nmany cases identical with those associated with the ore bodies of the\nAmerican ranges.\" \"Banded jaspei\nrnagnitites and hematites occur foi\nmany hundred miles throughout Northern Ontario and when thoroughly\nand intelligently prospected will no\ndoubt afford many valuable ore bodies. If the Americans are so far a-\nhead of us in the production of iron\nore, it is because they have spent\nmore money in the exploration wf one\nrange alone than has bet-ii expended\nin exploring the whole of Northern\nOntario. The Americans realise this\nfact themselves, have of late years\nspent considerable sums ' of money\nprospecting the Ontario ranges. That\nsuccess will attend their efforts is\nreasonably certain and unless iron\nmasters rise to the occasion and join\nin the search they will be forcod into\nthe posit.on of Isolated buyers of native ores from American miners.\nAt the same time we may hn confident that the greater purl of the output from theso prospective mines will\nbe exported tu the United States ^nd\n\" smelted in the American furnaces.\nPRODUCTION OF IRON ORE FROM\nTHE LAKE SUPERIOR DISTRICT\nThere is no other area In tho world\nequal to the Lake Superior as n pro\nducer of high grade iron ore. The\nonly competitor is the Mlnettfl region\nof Germany. France and Belgium\n, which Is being left rapidly behind.\nfn 1870 the United Slates produced\na little over 8,000,000 tons of Iron\nore.\nThe iron mines In the Lake Superior region shipped in 1891, 7,021,466\ntons, in 1901, 80,693,537 tons, and\nlu 1910, over 4l,()i)i),lllHl tons of Iron\nore. In tint old ranges ol the south\nshore 0re Is being mlnod to the depth\nol 2,000 feet Qud very little of the\nore came from near the surface. Up\nto the present, these Iron mines ol\nlake Superior have shipped ovor 443,.\n000,000 tuns of iron ore, worth alont\nat thn smelters about 11,750,000,000.\nOver 75 per cent, of the iron on\niiBod in Ontario furnaces comes from\ntho United States and the percentugi\nla steadily increasing The following\nis quoted from the IFlwt Annual Report ol the Oommtsslon of Conservation, Canada page 01\n\"Only a few yearB ago the iron\nmaster on this continent would bard\nly look at an iron ore If it contained\nIron ore worth alone at the smelters\nabout $1,750,000,01)1).\nThree quarters of the ore reserves\nof Minnesota are In the hands of the\nUnited States Steel Co.
