Tho 'best plan, ns-mnny fn thurs huvo found out, Is to help tho boy to help himself nnd keep him -so busy and with so much money flowing into bis pockot ns to drive out nil thoughts of deserting tho farm, snys tho Country Gentleman.

There is no surer way of building up ������ rundown farm or ono not largo euough to support much slock than by getting on u lot of sheep ns winter boarders. The fertility counts year by year, nnd while tho boy is kept out of mischief tbo farm Is steadily growing in valuo.

Teaching the district school loaves little timo to help with the farm chores, but the farmer is relieved of tho worry of lhe boy wanting to leavo the farm, and school will bo out. in the spring In lime for the active farm work, so that what the boy makes is almost clear money. Boarding town horses is another industry open, to hoys and one thut is not hard work.

'Because there aro lorgo; areas of land in tho north on which there-Is .timber of some kind, tho conclusion is reached lint.lt is all of prosont value and that tlie country has an-unlimlted supply. As a matter of, fact a careful inspection of tho timber along tho line of tlio Hudson Bay Railway mado iu tho years 1910 and 1911. by- th'o Forestry Branch of the Department of tho Interior, shows that ther is not enough' mature timber along tho ltfto of that railway to build--t.ho road. Thero aro no prairie districts of any oxtent along die route, there aro trees everywhere, but owing to repeated tiros the forest 13, oxc^pt on tho nearest fraction pf the area, too small for commercial purposes and unless it can be protected fronyfiro until it reaches .maturity, will."novor be of any use to the country. Explorations in other-parts of the northern forested districts* tell the same tale. Everywhere flro has worked havoc, and tho forest is a inero wreck of what it might havo been if fires could be prevented. And unless adequate measures aro taken now" to protect young and immature forests which form tho major part of tho stand, the outlook for tho future is none too good. If the northern forests are to continue to be a permanent source of wealth to the country, it-is absolutely necessary that he fire ranging system should be extended and that proper methods of management of tho forest should be applied, and public education to the value' of the forest ls oven more necessary.- In Sweden, which-has large exfenfs of northern forest, practically 'uniii- ,liabited.__siiniIai-J_o---thoso_in--nort!iorn- Canada, has about eliminated tbe fire danger in such districts mainly by educating her pooplo to the value of the forests.

LUMBER WASTE (OR PULPWOOD Practical Economy and Utilization of Wood Waste Is,Urged by Forestry Department For tho purposo of manufacturing tlio four hundred and seventy-five thousand tons of wood pulp produced in Canada in. 1910 nothing was uspd except logs of various species, which as our timber supply decreases are becoming valuablo for lumber and othor uses. No slabs or othor sawmill wasto was reported as being converted into wood pulp, by neglecting which practice, Canada is losing greatly. During 1909 in tho United States six per cent, of (ho total pulpwood consumption wns from Blabs and mill trimmings. If economy had boon practiced to the sumo extent In Canada during tho year 1910. as much pulp might lmvo boon produced as from thirty-six thousand cords ot' wood and not ono pulp log need havo been cut. This would havo mado twenty por cent, moro pulp than Nova Scotia produced iu iDio. ,:������������������ Looking at tlio subject from another view.point tho "Bojn might have beon lynch greater. Over ono-half of tho five billion foot of lumber cut ln ,1910 passed .through mills at, centres of large population whoro tho slab waste of ono-half cord to every thousand feet of lumbor might havo boen saved from tho incinerators. One cord of pulpwood will produce at least one-half ton of pulp so- that one and a quarter million cords of slabs obtained would havo produced- at? the lowest estimate six hundred-and twenty-five thousand tons of pulp produced in Canada ih 1910. Tho sooner such practical economy and utilization of wood wasto commences tho longer will Canada havo au adequate supply of pulpwood.

"When I think of some of tho.tricks that used to obtain in reputablb business firms, I am reminded of tho'sea- sido auctioneer. This scoundrel onco held up a ?10 gold piece and said: " 'Guess the date on this piece of money friends. .Make a'guoss and a small purchase, and tho correct gues- ser takes the coin.' '"So everybody .in tho crowd-guessed; everybody bought somo worth-- lesa rubbish, and the dealer netted a huge profit. Then, at the end, ho looked at the ?10 gold pieco held it up and said: "'Now for it! .Who guessed 1894?' "'Me! Me! Me!' cried every man jack hi tlie shop. The dealer smiled. " 'Then you guessed wrong, he said, slipping tho coin into his pocket. ���������Tho date is 1812.'"

A week ago in hor own kit chon, cays slie: 'What your husband needs is tho restraining hand. Mrs, Brown, He's out too much with his friends.*" "'Mrs. Smith,' I says. 'I'd rather ho married to a man that goes out with his pals manlike than -bo fastened for life to a dirigible balloon!'"

A harder cough, and then another. First thing you know, vou're wide awake, coughing your head ofT. A few nights of that and you're so worn out and weakened that the cough, takes a tight grip on you. ������������������ But why endure it? Na-Dru-Co Syrup of Linseed, Licorice and Chlorodyne will soothe that exasperating tickling, loosen the phlegm and cure the inflammation of tbe. mucous rno-nbrane. It not only stops Hiccough quickly, allowing you to get sound, refreshing sleep, but it goes to the root of the trouble and drives out tht-cold completely. Children ���������willingly take Na- Dru-Co Syrup of.Linseed, Licorice and Chlorodyne,, because it tastes so good. Your Druggist has it or can quickly get It for you in 2**c. and 50c. bottles.

Transports 'Shipment of Horses From St. Paul to Vancouver In Record Time Railway shippers una especially shippers of live stock will be interested in tho record made by the Soo Line and the Canadian Pacific Railway in transporting a-/shipment of horses from St. Paul to Vancouver last month. The shipment which consisted of one hunarcd and fifty thoroughbred horses was made from Lexington, Kentucky,,. by Irving H, Wheaterofy a retired United ' States railroad man and the owner of several big stock farms. In shipping his stock-via the Soo Lino and the Canadian Pacific Railway, the only stipulation of inif. irtance made by Mr.' Whoatcroft was that yi-** horses should be delivered ih good condition at Vancouver ih not more than six days after they had left St. Paul. ' In forwarding the "Shipment, the C. K R. not only made delivery at Vancouver within the six days but cut the time down to under four days, tin00 days and t\ye.nty>one hours to be exact. The special train containing the horses, left Minneapolis at 10.15 a.m. on October 13th. On October. 14th at "(i.30 p.m. it reached Forlai and it ici't P01UU t'.x same right at'8.05 o'clock.

They ,will take eav-i of their character and let their repsitat.on lake care of itself. Hut they are not wise. It ls our duty to guard with religious care both our character and our reputation. " A man's reputation is a large part of his capital. Th*** business man must have a good name or bis business will not prosper. A good, nail*-! is an essential thing for a young man wbo goes out to find a business open*ng. If his good name is gone, who will employ him? When one's reputation is tarnished his influence is gon<v When the good name of an innocent person is soiled by the tongue of slander, most peoplo will say it is a natural occurrence which could not b-j avoided" and some will say it is a strange providential visitation. It Is no: aiwa.s so. Sometimes it is a clear ease of giving that which is holy to tho dogs. If young peoplo were prudent and careful to n->oid liio appearance of evil they migy. as a rule, escape tho shame and humiliation of a bad name. Hut they are not always prudent. Thoy are often found in nlaees where they ought not to be. They often go into company whkh awaKens suspicion. If they are warned of tho danger, they scoff at tho~wanUn_��������� and defy public sentiment. Thoy arc not afraid. They may be innocent, but they aro not prudent. A good name, which has been handed down through many generations without a spot, is worth guarding with scrupulous caie. "Give not that which is holy to the dogs.". Judge a Joker It is easy for a judge to be a humorist. If you don't laugh at jokes he can send you to another place for contempt of court, and it Is remarkable how the knowledge of this fact drives home the point of the alleged joke. , One of this kidney was recently addressing a shy witness���������a milkman, who had served the plaintiff in the case. . - ���������'. ' ������������������" "Come, come.^my man!" he said. And the barristers saw the twinkle in' his eye and got ready to guffaw. "Speak up; don't b������ too shy. You never served meyWith any thing, did you?" "Haw-haw!" laughed- the. Bar. And the clerk' appropriately 'chimed in with a "Hee-hee!" "Not with milk, my lord," said the witness. ' ,. "With what, then?" said the George Rpbey among judges, still, with the judicial grin. "A summons for debt, my" lord. It was about twenty years ago, and I was working for Casey, the tailor, them days." Unfortunate "Ah,, it is a superb Magnlflque," crlod the French ,__aviator.___as___lie_aviat.ed through space a thousand dizzy feel above the blue sea. "And when I arrive in England, ze people zere will shout 'Brava!' aiid wave zeir hats for me!"' ���������* Tie sailed along happily.

[Copyright. 19U. by Associated Literary Press.] !T wns ix now experlcnco in tho life of Humpy Skinner, nged fourteen. New experiences hnd boon coming to him overy ilny since he wns old enough to realize thnt n licking nlwnys followed hit* breaking n pane of glass, but this was something out of (he ordinary. lie had boon sent with n wheelbarrow to get n bushel or so of siind for household purpose**, and no sooner hnd bo started out than he begun to feel tho .consciousness of power. Pedestrians 'gave the wheelbarrow and the boy n wide berth, lloth men and women knew tlmt no-more deadly combination existed, while - younger - and smnller folks had something yet to learn. ��������� Up near the corner was nn oldish man leaning against the fence as lie "TRIED TO OIUITLE ME, DID SOU?" surveyed n vacant house with a to rent sign on the door, lie wns wonder- fl'lng bow many rooms the bouse contained, and whether it wns haunted, when Humpy Skinner noticed hlrn and tried nn experiment. -He shut his eyes tightly and tried to seo how near ho could como to the man's heels with his ���������wheelbarrow, lie hnd n distance of forty feet to go, and bo managed matters so well that be ran tho wheel plump against the leaning man nnd knocked his legs out from under him. "By jingo, but whnt aro you tryiug io do?" shouted tbe man as he struggled up. Repelled by Wheelbarrow. "I thought I would seo how near 1 could graze yon," wns the calm reply, "Oh/you did. ch? Then you willfully,- deliberately nnd maliciously ran that Infernal thing ngainst my legs ln tho hope of crippling me for llfo, did you? Boy, lemmo get hold of you once!" Dut Humpy drew buck with tho wheelbarrow nnd stood ready to repel nn nssnult, nnd tho man nibbed his left leg and continued: , "Are you such a lunkhead that you don't know thut n wheelbni'row ls nn Infernal ninchino? Vou hnvo no right running It on the sidewalk, Begone .with It boforo I got my pnws on you! Tho idoa of turning n boy of your ngo loose to malm and crlpplo uud slaughter!" .

It was a great temptation to Humpy He had sucked eggs before, and his A-dnufs apple worked up and down as be remembered how speedily and satisfactorily the yolks had slipped down his throat aud brought complacency to him for an hour afterward. That was before he had ever started to run a wheelbarrow on the sidewalk, however! Now ho somehow felt that egg sucking was a boyish trick and fnr beneath his dignity. Ho hnd seen that mon nud women were afraid" of bis barrow, and he wondered If boys would bo���������If Tlm Jackson would be. The only way to find out was to make a test.

As it was, there was something so menacing nboitt things that he turned and fled ere the barrow was within ten feet of him. Humpy uttered n wnrwhoop aud pursued, and eggs and. soap were scattered on the sidewalk, No living man or boy can push a wheelbarrow very far in a stralght- llne; uo matter how slow his pace. When ho comes to a run his courso Is like.,a rail fence. In going a block [lumpy tickled (lie legs of hnif n dozen men, almost ran Into three trees nnd scared a grocer's horso into a runaway, but his ardor didn't abate until he struck a fat man and brought him down -with a great crash. Talk From the Fat Mniy A cobbler, ran out of his shop and seized lhe boy and tlie harrow- until it could be ascertained whether tho fat man had been killed on the spot or only crippled for life, ll was two minutes before the question was decided. Then (Tie fat man rose up und began lo talk, lie called I lumpy Skinner about a hundred bnd names. lie threatened him with over 200 kluds of punishment, lie abused his father and vowed he would never take his hat on! to his mother, and the way he did rip that old Avhcelbarrow up the back put a new wabble in tlie wheel. "I don't know what this is all about," said Humpy when the fat man had finally got out of breath. "But yoir run him ober mit" dot wheelbarrer!" exclaimed the, cobbler. "How could I help it? Haven't I a right to chase n boy with my own wheelbarrow?" "Maybe, so, but haf you some rights to run a fat man ovor?" "But be got in tlio way. When lio "s^"Tne^oinlF^^Ti^drdn"t_Hirclimir a fence or dodge into a store?" "Hear the cold blooded villain talk!" groaned the victim. "Why, boy! why- why"- . Dog Was Unsuspecting. And then he swelled up again and grow red hi the face nnd gasped for brenth and could sny no more. Tho cobbler went to put him on the buck and lend him Into a sewing 'machine shop.where now and secondhand machines were sold on tbe installment plan, and Hunfliy took advantage of the occasion to mnko his escape. Ho was sobered up n littlo ns lie- passed ou, but only for a short time. Ho saw a largo dog standing on the corner while Its' master was ln tlio drug store to get something for a cold In tbo head. Tho dog wus looking across tho street nt n red headed boy, who was washing a store window, nnd ho hadn't tho slightest idea tbut his llfo wus in peril. No sooner had Humpy caught sight c*f tho cnnlno thnn ho had u plnn.

The Most Venomous Snake. The most venomous of snakes is said to bo the Echls carlnala of India.' It is about eighteen inchet* long uud ct a grey color. Thu creature ia death itself, and carries in its bead the secret of destroying life villi tho concentrated agony of a*I the poisons. Tho Echls carinata is tolerably common iu India, boiii*.'. found in nearly every part of the j-guiinst'ia. Fortunately, however, for mans it is not, liko the.cobra, a house-frequenting snake; for its aggressive habits would make It infinitely more fatal toJife than its dreaded relative. This kind of snake docs riot turn to escape from man as the cobra will, or' flash into concealment- like the koriat but keeps the path agauist its human assailant, pitting its own eighteen inches of length against its enemy's bulk, challenges ami provokes cuiiliot. A stroke with a whip will cut it iu two, or a clod of earth disable it; bin such is its malignity that it will invite attack by every device at its command, staking us otv,*s life on the mere chance of its adversary coming within the little circcle of its power. At most, the radius of this circle is twelve inches. Within il, at any point, lies certain death, and on the bare hopo of hand or foot trespassing within its reach, the Eehis throws its body Into a figure-of-eight coil. Then it attracts attention by rubbing- its loops together,-' which, from the roughness of the scales, makes a rustling, hissing sound, erects its head in the centre, and await attack. It is said that no one, having once encountered this terrible reptile, can ovor forget its horrifying aspect when thus aroused, its eagerly aggressive air, its restless coils, which, in eon- tant. motion one over the other and rutling ominously till the while, stealthily but suroly bring it 'nearer and nearer to tlie object of its fury.

Sometimes cold sores arise from . chilblains on tho toes or fingers, and in the former case whore colored socks arc worn, there is a danger of blood-poisoning from the dye. Zam-Buk being so powerfully antiseptic removes tho danger as soon as applied and quickly heals. JIr. W. .1. Halliday, at Ash Grove, Ont., says: "I had iny little finger frozen, and it cracked al the first joint, causing a bad sore, which dis- cliarged freely and would not heal. The pain was very bad, and the whole of my hand became swollen and in bad shape. "A friend advised me to try Zam- Bnk. and I soon found that Zam-Buk was altogether different, to any preparation I had ever tried. In a very short time it. healed the sore." Miss Lillie May, of Stoney Creek, Out., says: "A few weeks since, several nasty, disfiguring cold sores suddenly broke out on my lips, which became much swollen. Seeing my condition a friend advised me to try Zam- Buk and, leave all other preparations aside. This I did. and was much pleased, after a few applications of thisbalni to sej* everysore healed/' "Zam-Buk will also" be found a sure cure for eczema, blood:poison, varicose sores, piles, scalp sores, rlng- tlons and chapped places, cuts, burns, lions and chapped places, cuts, burns, bruiser, and skin injuries generally.

The people oi* Westfield (Mass.) woke' tip to the fact -hat they were not getting pure food, or pure material for use in food, They do not want, and now will not. have, fruits, jams, etc., in which certain preservatives aro use?!, peanuts that have beon varnished to make them look nice, etc. Of the groceries tested in the laboratory one of the most frequently adulterated is baking powder. A delightful concoction' known as a tart proved to be put'f- pasto made with alum, with a jelly centre dyed Avilh coal-tar. The article goes on to say: "So little baking powder is used in some homes thai, this product would seem comparatively unimportant. But a great deal of baking powder, however, is used in the bought cake, and biscuits, and a great deai of this is adulterated." The adulteration may be by ammonia, which is fraudulent but. not injurious, or by alum, which is decidedly injurious, as it hardens the tissues of the mucous membranes. As a precaution, look at label and see if ingredients are stated. Better refuse it if alum or something that looks like-alum (such as alumina) is one or* them, or if the ingredients are not slated by the manufacturer it will be well to select some other brand. Jams, jollies, catsups, confections, gelatines, dessert, powders, flavoring e:\tract8-are~ofteri-~colored~~witir~c-oai-" tar dyes. These dyes arc sometimes harmless, but very frequently injurious, depending on tlie particular combination. There is one bottle of Crente de Menthe at the Normal School which contains a coal-tar dye sufficiently poisonous to have killed two people. The bottle is almost full but the small amount used caused tho death of a man and his wife, and then the product was sent for analysis. Extracts aro also adulterated with wood alcohol and with tunieilc, a fraudulent adulterant. ' No doubt, many dries nnd towns will profit by Westfield's experience and follow its example.���������(Canadian Home Journal.) -Snve the (lifi'cr- ence between ilie cost of n good horse unit 51.00���������flic cost of a bottle of Kendall's Spavin Cure.
