For in plain- terms it means ^ ftat where things are going well with J7 #* man his wife makes them go better. - But when things are going ill with him, R mm expects the wife to share half his burden. And there's more truth than | poetry in this presentation of masculine ^ selfishness.

They ase the wife grow thin, pale, nerseus and worn without a thought that ah* it overburdened.

Here ur a great ravine, at an elevation of 2,480 feet above the level of the lake, jptuatd due east and west and surrounded by - nsasaiv rocks that afford perfect seclusion, iB a lodge that seems as if hewn by the hand of nature for the use to which it is put. The rocks offer suitable watch towers from which sentinels can readily observe the approach of eavesdroppers should any by chance pass that way. In such a spot as this, with only the f blue dome of heaven overhead and the impenetrable walls on both sides. Masons of today imitate the habit of their ancient brethren, who, tradition says, met in just such places to perform the ceremonies of the craft. The spot is not easy of access. The ascent is difficult, at all times hazardous, though at dangerous points, whenever 'a meeting of the brethren occurs ropes are. stretched for the climbers This natural lodgeroom has been in use for half a century. Golden Rule .Lodge, No. 8, of Stanstead, Quebec, was in 1867 granted a dispensation to open and hold a lodge onoe in every year on this mountain top the first meeting being held July 24, 1857. The original dispensation for this purpose was granted by William M. Wilson, the first grand master of the grand lodge of Canada, and in 1869 the dispensatio i was indorsed and confirmed by John H. Graham, the first grand master of the grand lodge of Quebec. It is the only louge in existence, it i^said, that has a warrant for holding regular meetings on ' a mountain top.

REPRESS MATTER BY AEROPLANE The first use of an aeroplane for car' rying express matter was made by the Wright brothers on November 7th, when one of their biplanes, piloted by aviator Phil 0. Parmalee, left the Wright's aerodrome at Simon's station, near Dayton, Ohio, at 10:45 a. m. and landed at Col- - umbus, Ohio, 65 miles away, 60 minutes later strapped to the passenger's seat of the biplane were two bundles of silt weiehinv about lbo pounds and valued at ! •800. A stock Wright biplane, fitted : with a 30-borse power 4 cylinder motor, 1 was used, and owing to a favorable wind of 20 miles an hour velocity, the aero- 1 plane actually covered 62 miles across country in 57 minute*. Parmalee there- < fore made an average speed of 65 1-4 3 miles per hour and set up a new record - for a cross-country flight. This flight 1 demonstrates how useful the aeroplane will yet become for the carrying of ex- ' press and mail matter. Postmastereneral Hitchcock, after a flight with ' Count De Lesseps at Baltimore, ex- 1 pressed his intention of beginning ex- 1 periments in mail carrying by aeroplane at once. — Scientific American.

THE LATEST IN CALLING CARDS ! • f CALLING cards show a decrease in size i each year, and this year they are smal1 ler than ever. Women who like to keep i up to date are carrying cards no larger - than those used by men, which are so i tiny that baby cards are being printed * with men's names. Even conservative women are carrying I cards measuring less than two by three . inches, so that in the case of a deep i mourning card there is only sufficient blank space for the name. The smallest women's card measures two by two and i three-quarters of an inch; the largest < t three and three-quartera inches by two and three-quarters inches, with four 1 sixes coming between. The pasteboard is of only medium thickness. Hie stiff card is out of date. 1 This year preference is given to the ■haded old English lettering and the 1 and shaded French script, the tatter being the very latest style. The size of the lettering is regulated - by the length of the name to be engraved 1 and the sixe of the cord is regulated by the length of the name.

HEWITT, Directors TENNYSON'S LOVE FOR BIRDS Alfred Tenyson was all his life a great lover of the woods and fields. Trees, birds and flowers were his everyday companions, and he faithfully studied the habits of Dame Nature's Eqglish nurslings. The lark, the nightingale, the owl and the linnet were his favorbirds. He was also greatly interested in the sea-birds, the peregrine falcons the cormorants, seagulls.etc., and in the long legged sea-birds, the visitors to | marshes and pools. He thought the curlew, of which he has written in I "Lockaley Hall," a very noble bird and its wild call over the marshes. J are many references to birds i native to England in his poems, and all of them show a thorough acquaintance with the individual characteristics of the different species. At Faringford the poets garden was the borne of the wild birds of the hedgerows. The blackbird and the robin and the. smaller birds flocked there in great numbers, and it was considered far more i important that they should feel welcome there than thatt he fruit should be permitted to ripen undisturbed or the garden be kept in proper order Domesticated birds also Tennyson numbered among his friends. Briliant peacocks and more sober doves and pig- < eons, he loved them all.

KLINE, 11-26 Executor V HINTS FOR STOCK OWNERS 0 There are mad)' fanners who always , skelter their cattle from storm, but there ; art raw, oold, windy days which harm them as much as storms. Don't -let 1 them c bring* in pasture corners, clustered . together for warmth on such day*. Put i them in the shed or barn. Bank lip the old barns to shut out the cold wind under the floors. 1 The sunshine should Come into every stable through large windows. I Every window should have shutters ' to close tight at night to keep the r cold out. 5 If a cow has an apple or similar obj struetion lodged in her throat, it can . ' i be removed by pouring a pint of melted ' lard down her throat. This will make ( the animal strangle and cough, and in the struggle the obstruction will be ais- ' : lodged. Plenty of exercise is one very important item for keping a flock healthy. Encourage exercise by placing feed i some distance from the sheds on fine days. Be sure that he sheep barn has a tight roof, a dry floor, good ventilation and no drafts. Hold on to some of the clover for ' spring feeding. It is great when the sheep get tired of timothy. ' Sheep are timid, nervous creatures, . ' and all excitement and roughness should ' be avoided in handling them. Look out for sore teats on ewes with ( lambs. When such conditions are dis- ' covered rub the affected parts twice a . ' day with salted butter. Hogs properly sheltered will thrive ' i on much less feed than those exposed Alfalfa hay and corn have been found i to be a most satisfactory fattening feed « I for hogs. < Hog manure is almost the richest of < any made on the farm. Save it all and < put it out on the land. ] i If the food is allowed to suor in the troughs, it will throw the hogs off feed. , This will cheek growth, and is a loss. Dont try to winter fall pigs without i good provision for slop. Besides the . feeding value, the slop encourages the pigs to drink freely, whicn is desirable t in cold weather. c The best feed wc find for young pigs | before weaning is shelled corn, soaked t from one feed till tiie next and sprinkled t over, when damp, with middlings, with t a very small proportion of oil-meal and t tankage added. Salt the mixture light- i ly and feed in troughs. Be kind but firm with the colts and • i tie them in strong halters. Irregularity in time of feeding and ' quantity will cause indigestion. ' An ignorant, ill-tempered loud voiced ' 1 man should never be tolerated in any ' stable. ' { ' A little shelled com mixed in with

' the ground feed you give your horses ' 1 will help to keep them from swallow1 ing their food too fast. The man who bores auger holes in ' 1 his stable floor to allow the liquid man- • ure to escape, is the man who is always i hard up and in " bad luck." Do not neglect to keep the feet of 1 the driving horses sharply shod. It may ' save bad wrenches and will greatly add 1 to the comfort of the animals. Do not pnt a handful of salt in the ' feed box. Put a brick or lump of rock ' salt in a convenient place where the horse may help himself to it when he j Do not neglect to give each horse a ' chance to drink the last thing at night, ' even if the weather is cool. A horse that is thirsty all night will ! lose in condition, as compared with one 1 watered frequently, and the last thing 1 at night. From December Farm Journal. 1 !
