had not thought that their parting on
the veranda was to be their last for
year. She had been almost uncivil
to Wilton, who was after all her best

not stop to define, she selected one Of
the most beautiful roses, and enclosed
it in a box with her card, on the back

rather indifferently:

Desdemona, whose name signifies

her death, according to this new YER

Othello had charged his valet with
the carrying Out Of his revenge The
valet accordingly took up position
close to Desdemona's apartment,

Othello thereupon requested his
wife to rise and discover the cause
of the noise.
AS she crossed the threshold a

was then assailed with a succession
of similar grass-filled sacks, being
finally smothered under the falling
ceiling and masonry of the walls,
which had been specially loosened at
Othello's orders.

A problem which perplexed the last

Cooperation Of English Farmers.

The Agricultural Organization soci.
ETY. was formed four years ago to pro-
mote reciprocal aid among British
farmers, and statements at the an
nual meeting recently held show that
its object is being successfully car
ried out. The number of branch soci-
cites has largely increased and is now
113, embracing 80 counties, while the
membership has advanced from 4.500
in 1904 to $500 now. One of the i'm
portant aims OF the society is the
cheapening Of freight rates, which
have been excessively burdensome in
England to the small shipper. This
is being done with success by combin-
ing farm products in wholesale quaint.
ties. General working expenses have
been reduced and in some cases the
prices Of products have been increased
through the harmonious working Of
the society. 1t also enables members
to buy in wholesale quantities from
one central point instead of dribbling
out small orders to large number OF
producers. Farmers can buy their sup
plies and implements at wholesale
prices, and this is considered so i'm
portant that prophets are found who
see in it the redemption Of British ag-
riculture from the low estate to which
it has declined.

mind as to the good that can come to
you by living in the sunshine way, we
ask you to try for one day and prove
by personal experience whether or not
it is worth your while to scatter sun

make those about you, in your home
happier. Keep a sharp lookout for
little opportunities of helpfulness. Be
courteous and kind whenever you
speak, or are spoken to. Be pleasant
to everyone everywhere. Be willing
to sacrifice your own personal enjoy

another person happier. Do all this
