Destructive spring freshets have &C.
Cured this season over a wider area
than ever before in the history Of the
North American continent. There is
but one cause.-the destruction Of the
forests. The immediate results, loss
Of human life and loss Of valuable
property, are lamentable enough; but
the more remote consequences are mat
tiers Of even greater public moment.
The final consequence is barrenness,
uninhabitableness- The general awak-
ening to the necessity Of united move
ment for the preservation Of the for
ests that remain ard the restoration OF
wooded areas where they are needed
has been delayed too long. This Is one
Of the most imports questions before

He Gives Some Very Valuable Hints On
How 20 1Iake . Fortune.
One Of Engiand's money kings, man
who has made an immense fortune out
Of the manufacture OF beef extract
has kindly revealed to the anxious
world the way to become millionaire,
says the New York Times There's
nothing very wonderful about It." he
begins, and then makes the curiously
familiar remark that "it's not d mat
ter of luck, but Of extremely hard
work" This dear old platitude having
thus been trotted out once more, the
millionaire relapses into autobiography
and says things which, II not particu-
larry instructive, do throw interesting
side lights upon the class Of which he
Is the type. For instance: MY In
come since my business was well es-
tablished has never been less than
f2o, 900 a year. But then put In SIX
teen hours q day, and never tried to
drink, smoke and work at the same
time. It can't be done. Then always
made a point Of going to bed at 10
o'clock-QuIte late enough II you want
to get I'D fresh and eager for business
In the morning. / always like to be
ND early and get little bit In froat
Of every one else. That's the whole
secret" This tries ones patience hard,
particularly If fate has put him at work
which necessitates late hours. What
follows, however, is not 80 bad, from
the squalid, money-is-the-end-of-all
point of view. 81 always went in for
big things" said the multimillionaire,
halfway up the ladder there are too
many competitors. II you go to the
top you pretty well have the field to
yourself. There are plenty Of men
ready to deal In thousands, but they
get frightened when you talk of half
millions. The average city man OF to-
day is an easygoing sort Of chap. Max
ing money is more a matter Of will and
self-sacrifcc than Of luck or of brains"

Bishop Seymour Of the diocese Of II
1inuois has placed repentant dancers on
their feet again, 50 to speak, by say
1ng that God has not cursed dancing;
that It is the poetry Of motion, and not
Inherently evil. The bishop also has

with the bishop, whatever hesitancy
their elders may exhibit in adopting
the bishops views.

L,.,,. Dane. .aa Men.

Little DANES aad Men.
We must all remember when
We were little danes and men.
When each sorrow tugged away with
all its might
At our little hearts and eyes
TIL the air was full Of signs
And the brightest day was turned to
darkest night
How we'd weep,
How we'd creep,
To our little beds to sleep,
With wet Iashes on flushed faces; even
Not soul would ever know
Half our agony, and so
We should sympathize with little danes
and men
We must all remember when
We were little danes and men
When we meet the little ones from day
to day.
A kind word is Just as cheap,
And It sinks TO depths as deep
As the harsh one you were sending
down their way.
II you knew,
How few
Gracious acts and words from you
Were planted in their souls, to blossom
when
Golden days Of child BOD seem
To be shadows Of a dream.
You would love and cherish little
danes and men.

Bon-Bon Baskets

IldQlcS WHO live OF q uA6AAhNN
cities, where ornamental paper-holders
cannot be ordered from the confec'ion-
er at a moments rotice, will find many
uses for these dainty little baskets,
which can easily be made at home In
colors to suit the table decorations.
They should have charming effect on
the candy table" at fairs. and will
doubtless be turned to account at
Christmas to hold bon bons.
The materials for six baskets are
one sheet Of stiff fancy paper, fouI
pieces Of narrow ribbon, one number
wider than baby" ribbon, and three
balls Of tinsel braid. or six skeils Of
floss. Having selected the color for
the baskets. the paper. ribbon and flo
selle or tinsel should be carefully chos-
en- to harmonic. White or ivory pa
per can always be used, II a tint de-
sired is not to be obtained, and fer the
ribbon maize, straw. pale blue. apple
green. or even bright poppy color are
selected.
The foundation is cut Of paper. For
the bottom use an oval two inches wide
and two and a quarter inches long, to
which is Joined half-circle, three and
a quarter inches wide and eight inches
long. which gives a faring basket
shape. This round Is sewed or gummed
neatly together.
The strongest and best preparation
that can be used for this purpose is
fish glue, and any cabinet-maker will
procure it for you. II too far away
from a cabinet-maker, try gum arabic
dissolved in water or fiour-paste.
The bottom does not need gluing,
but is kept in place as follows: Mark
the upper edge Of the round in even d.
vision spaces, say in eleven divisions.
and the edge Of the bottom-piece in the
same number. The latter. Of course,
will be much closer together. Draw
through a doubIe-thread Of filoselle,
managing 1t so that all knots will
come on the side where they will be
hidden by the ribbon and carrying
them across on the inside, so as to run
in straight lines from the top to the
bottom Of the basket. In using tinsel,
it is well to punch the holes, as then
the tinsel passes readily through the
round, smooth openings without fray
ing.
The lines Of floselle once fastened
on, weave the ribbon, in and out, and
fasten OF the end with a tiny bow.
The cover for the little basket or ham
per is FIVE inches square, and cut at
each corner diagonally towards the
center about two inches, so as to lap
these points. over-patching them by a
stitch-and make IT arch up in the mid
die.
The lines Of floselle are carried
across and back in one direction only.
and the ribbon woven across them. A
few stitches will hold the ribbon In
place, and a somewhat broader ribbon
Of the same color passes across and
holds the cover on. Tie 1t In a pretty
bow on the top.
In place Of the ribbon for weaving,
straw. or even strips Of paper, can be
used, the choice of colors and the dain-
uness Of the work serving to make
very simple material attractive.-Bal-
