Which nations methods OF forest
management are better and more prac-

tracts Of land, already partially cover
ed with trees, and each about five
acres in extent, have been assigned
to the United States and German gov
ernments as the laboratory for their
tests. The two lie side by side, SO
that the visitors may walk through
what the Americans call an "arbore-
tum" and observe all American meth
ods of forestry. and then step across
into what the German designates as a

method

A TIMELY SUGGESTION

This is the season of the year when
the prudent and careful housewife re-
plenishes her supply of Chamberlain s
Cough Remedy. 1t is certain to be
needed before the winter is over, and
results are much more prompt and sat
isfactory when it is kept at hand and
given as soon as the first indication of
the cold appears. There is no danger
in giving it to children for it contains
no harmful substance. 1t is pleasant
to take-both adults and children like
it. Buy it and you will get the best
gists.

CHRISTMAS IN THE TROPICS

In tropical countries some interest
ing effects are produced because
Christmas may be celebrated in the
open air. In the Philippines the day
is usually warm The hedges and the
banana trees and the orange groves
are in bloom, and the people take a
midday siesta to rest from the heat
In the afternoon there may be a base
ball game. and at night, fireworks.
In Cuba, the evergreen cactus, the
brilliant colors of flowers growing out
of doors, the white sunlight and the
indigo blue of the waters make a
scene in sharp contrast with the
SHOWS of northern climates. The
houses have colors ranging from sky
blue to pink, with white iron balloon
les, latticed windows and tiled roofs
You will find fountains at play indoors
and outdoors. And in the country are
gardens of ropical foliage. Here the
essential features of the Christmas
celebration are the same as in other
Catholic countries.
Everywhere in Spanish America the
old Southern European Christmas Gus
toms are tenacious. In Peru bands of
children go about on Christmas eve
from house to house wherever there
is nacimiento, singing carols There
is in museum in Spain a nacimiento
that came from Peru that is said to
be two hundred years old. 1t is in a
box. When the lid is lifted it diScloS-
es a representation of heaven with an
gels playing upon musical instruments.
The interior is the usual representation
of the manger, but the front of the
box, when it is open, represents the
Garden of Eden.
But in those parts of South Amer
lea where Germans have settled they
have introduced the Christmas tree
and other German Christmas customs.

Miss Carrie Holly, the teacher at
Dinner Pond school, while returning

OF her father and mother, Mr.. and Mrs.
Robert Holly, met with a most discom-
forting mishap at Sharpe ferry. The
ferryman being absent Mr.. Holly poll
ed the boat acrass, while Mrs. Holly
held the horse. No sooner did the
horse clear the ferry to 90 up the bank
than he began to back, pushing the
ferry away from the approach and
backing the wagon into the water.
There the wagon hung with Miss Holly
in it, too sick to get out and there re
manned until Mr.. Holly could secure
help to extricate the wagon. 1t took
over an hour to rescue the sick mai
den-an experience that was anything
but pleasant
