More Strict Sunday Laws.

The laws recently enacted in France
and Canada aim at more general recog-
milton of Sunday, at least as day Of
rest. In France it is made rule for all
commercial and industrial establishments
to close for this weekly day of rest, and
when in any case such closing would be
prejudicial to the interests of the public
the law requires that an equal amount OF
rest be accorded to all workers on some
other day, or by shifts in rotation. Gan.
ada's new Sunday law is far more drastic.
All trading or remunerative service 10
forbidden, except in works of actual ne
cessity or mercy. Railroads may not run
excursions or handle any traffic which can
be attended to on any other day. :, But,
most remarkable of all, there are to be no
Sunday newspapers either published at
home or imported from abroad. All pub
lie amusements are banished. Heavy PEN
alties for violations are to be imposed on
employers or corporations as well as on
employees.

TIL. Rthle An Foreign Lands.

The British and Foreign Bible Society
now distributes the Scriptures in no few.
er than 400 languages.
This is one of the many interesting
facts presented recently at the society's
meeting in London.
Copies of the Bible are purchased from
the British and Foreign Bible Society for
cheese, eggs, arrowroot and many other
commodities. In the New Hebrides ma.
tives pay for the Bible in arrowroot. In
one of the New Hebrides-Aneityum-
so generous have the native Christians
become that during the last eleven years
they have grown and given arrowroot to
the value of $1,000 for the good of the
Christian cause and for starting other
churches. Nothing else is used in these
islands for the purchase of the Scriptures,
but arrowroot, 10 pounds of which will
buy Bible.
In Saa, one of the British Solomon
Islands, Bibles are bought with dead dogs
teeth. Other things used to purchase Bi.
bles in different parts of the world are
barley, eggs, pigs, goats, fowl and beads.

To XIII sas.afra. Roots.

Says one writer: Sassafras Is one OF
the worst pests that some farmers have
to contend with. 1t may be grubbed
year after year and every root taken
out that can be, and still there Will be
roots left that will sprout up, and soon
the sassafras will be thicker than ever,
and the area of sassafras brush Will
be enlarged rather than diminished
No amount of grubbing will permanent
ly rid field of sassafras. The most
successful method Of fighting sassafras
| have ever tried is to cut or the
sprout at the top of the ground and to
pasture with cattle and sheep until the
roots die, or If the trees are large, peel
them two or three feet above the
ground and pasture until the roots die
If the land is plowed and the roots
broken, they will sprout, but II pas
tured close the roots die in few years

Some children catch cold very easily
after having their hair washed. In
order to dry it quickly and prevent
this, use for the final rinsing quite hot
water in which few drops Of alcohol
have been added. Then rub the hair
we'll with alcohol and wiring 1t out as
dry as possible.
Next take two or three towels, divide
the hair and wipe each strand separ'
ately, says Home Chat. Let the child
sit in a warm room, or, II possible, In
the sun; fan the hair and wipe each
strand separately, and 1t will soon be
perfectly dry.

About Napkins.

At the best houses, napkins are still
laid at the left of the forks or upon the
service plate if preferred.
Sometimes they are half folded over
with small piece of bread or dinner
roll inclosed though ordinarily these
are now laid upon the bread and butter
plate.
The napkins Is folded square, with
the initial or monogram Of the hostess
on top.
Napkins folded in fancied shapes are
not tolerated outside of country hotels
and restaurants.
The luncheon napkin may be smaller
than the dinner one.
Napkins should be ironed while quite
damp, so as to give them the gloss ant
finish so desirable in all table linen wei

Cleansing Bark of Fruit Trees.

Every tree in an orchard should ne
washed at least twice year with
strong soapsuds, but there will be no
necessity for scraping them. The cat
erpillars should be destroyed as soon
az the nests are seen, which will emo
large numbers with amazing rapldity !;
the escape of a single pair means thou
sands next season. One of the best
assistants to an orchard Is the little
wren. If farmers will give him prop
er protection by constructing boxes
with entrances so small that no bird
but wren can enter, the sparrow Will
be unable to drive it away. AS the
wren Is an active and busy creature, II
destroys a large number of insects III
very short time, and, as it Increases
rapidly under favorable circumstances
quite large number of them may be
secured and induced to remain in thu
orchard, If proper facilities are af
forded for their protection and accom-
meditation.

long on a boarding house veranda not
many miles from this city sits young
woman, large-eyed, snd-eyed, never

salads. try to tempt the woman to
heartiness and cheer. year ago she
must have been pretty. Now she Is
plain, though her every feature Is per-
feet. Her hair is glossy and would
wave except for her insistence upon the
application of wet hairbrush by the
maid companion. She dresses once
day, always in plain black, with never
a bewtching ruffie nor coquettish end
of lace. Every morning the husbands
CHEEKY "Good-by, dear!" rings across
the veranda, half hopefully, half dis

has not smiled since!
Pinned to her plain black collar Is
brooch of the baby's photograph and

when in the coffin. He was three months
old when he died, and after five months
the mother does not smile.
Somehow one wants to shake the wo-
man In black, pinch her, tell her that
her mirthless life is life of sin more
terrible than almost any other sin OF
which one may conceive. For there is
the dead chld's father to think of and
the future children which she should
take to her heart and mother. One
would tear from her the horrid black
robe and robe her in the pink which
would brighten her skin and tighten hel
eyes. One would unroll her hair an(
scatter Its tresses to the sun till thu
god of light brought back the waves
and careless curls. One would MAXI
her laugh till the veranda rang will

many shades and tones Is much In evil

may be due to the fact that 1t Is color

Alcohol REVOLUTION Exaggerated.

The report Of Internal Revenue Com
missioner Yerkes, who was sent to Eu-
rope to investigate the uses of denatured
alcohol indicates that the promise of an
Industrial revolution through the placing
Of this article on the American free list
Is worthless. He says the fact Is that
alcohol has not yet been harnessed for eff
fective and economical use in the indus
tries. Nowhere in Europe do they propel
autos with alcohol or use it for light or
heat. The picture of the farmer distilling
alcohol with which to operate bis own
farm implements is mere fiction.

Fertility of Wood Ashes.

All farmers know that wood ashes
are valuable as fertilizers. But this
value, as many know, is due very much
to the material from which the ashes
come. Thus, ashes made from hard
wood are more valuable than ashes
made from soft wood. In fact, some
ashes from soft wood have not enough
value to make 1t worth while to bother
with them. 1t has also been found
that the value is largely governed by
the part of the tree from which the
ashes are made. 1t is declared by
chemists that the ash Of young twigs
Is of more value than the ash of the
trunk of the tree, while The ash OF
leaves is still more valuable.
