Temagami is shaped like an octopus,
with long stretched-out arms, and it's
shores are indented with deep circling
bays, island strewn and eliminating in
sharp points and curves that add to
the beauty Of this magical scene. "The
lake of deep waters" Is the meaning
of the Indian word, and they lie very
deep and cool in their bed of granite !;
in stiffness a perfect mirror, in storm
darkly menacing, with foam-edged
waves showing fang-like teeth.
Being a hundred square miles in
area, Temagami forms one of Canada's
great natural reservoirs. Mighty
rivers from the height Of land to the
north flow into 1t, and it in turn feeds
the stream that flow southwark. car

GIFTS HARD TO DODGE.


In writing the "Reoellections' Of the
royal family of Germany in the time
of a earlier generation, the Princess
Cathardne RadZiwill gives some impress
sions which Christmas made upon her
Juvenile mind. They may prove not
wholly unpleasant reminders to chill
dren OF less exalted station in life.
On the twenty-sixth day of Deem
Der the empress appeared at my moth
~er-in-lawis, accompanied by her daugh-
ter, tine Grand Duchess of Baden, and
brought with her an enormous bag
filed with various trihes, which she
distributed among us as Christmas
presents.
These occasions were dreaded by ev-
erybody, as anything more hideous than
the k~nickknacks which the poor m
press used to bring could hardly be
imagined. ..
The fact was that she never gave us
pretty things, and on this particular
Christmas, the first in my experience
when I vas admitted among the re-
cipients of her bounty, I remember hay
ing been scared by the sight Of an ap-
palling thermometer in green bronze,
representing the Column Of Victory In
Berlin, which In itself is a hideous
monument. '...
AS my Ill luck would have it, I was
made the unhappy recipient Of this
monstrosity, inc could get rid
of 1t in after life. No matter where
1 moved. the dreadful thing followed
me. 1t would not get broken, or lost,
or even mislaid; 1t was impossible to
give it to a bazaar, and I expect that
one day 1t will turn up again from one
Of my boxes. when 1 least expect It..
The presents of the queen remind me
Of an adventure which befell one of
them. and caused my poor mother-fn-
law some sleepless nights. She had re-
ceived for a birthday present from the
empress a table In white china, orna-
mented by her majesty herself with
paintings Of the kind called decaico-
mania. 1t was anything but beautiful,
and was at once relegated to a dark
corner of the apartment. whence it
emerged only when the good Augusta
expected.
This kind of thing lasted for about
two years, wher at last my mother-in-
law thought she might venture to dis
of the ugly thing my giving it to
a bazaar held In her own house. She
carefully waited until the empress had
paid it a visit, and then, feeling SURE of
impuni.y, sent 1t there.
AS It happened, tho emperor appear

taken round the was ut once
caught by the unfortunate table, and

Samuel Gompers, the reelected chief
Of the American Federation of Labor.
was pointing out the good that unions
had done for worklnen.
"In France" he said, there are few
unions, and a French b~ricklayer told
me the other day that wages We're. in
consequence, unreasonably low there.
The bricklayer said with n laugh
that II friend of his in Nice, out OF
work. bought on the Avenue de In Care
q newspaper. He took the paper home
to his attic in the squalid Rue Felix.
md his wife, after turning to the ad-
vertisements, said eagerly:

great machine to which thirty horses
were wont to be h~arnessed-the ma
chine that cuts, and threshes, and sorts
out the kernels of the grain into bags,
so that the only work required Of the
farm hands rs the tying Of the bags
and the loading of the wagons, hich
the tractors will eventually draw away
to the railroad station. In a days work
the tractor will convert the standing
CROP of a field of $50 acres into wheat
and straw. The work of only eight
men Is needed, one to steer and n to
fire the engine, one to operate h lev
ers of the cutting machine, and the rest
to tie the mouths Of II bags and to
load up the farm wagons.
The choice of a form of power for
farm use should depend upon the uses
to which the power Is to be put Horse
power does we'll for most purposes. The
limitations. A pumping windmill OF
proper size, however, should supply all
the wants of the farmstead for water.
In the matter Of economy the windmill,
is among the cheapest of powers. Case
line engines are cheaper In operation
than small steam engines. Where a large
amount of power is required for reason
ably long and frequent periods, the
steam engine is perhaps to be preferred.
Then for dairy purposes h steam en-
CINE, with its boiler, supplies steam and
hot water, and on a large stock farm,
where much cooking Of food Is done,
and where steam heat Is occasionally
required, this secondary use OF the
boiler m in.
The manufacture Of engines, as of
every modern agricultural implement,
involves great care and labor. The
manure spreader, the binder, the seed
er, the harrow, h cream separator
all are the result Of an intricate system
Of following raw material through a
hundred and n processes till they
comprise a handsome and useful factor
of the farms equipment.
The rapid strides being made to-day
in the scientific world are aiding the
implement manufacturer in turning out
a better class of machinery, and at a
lower price thar he could think Of do
Ing ten or twenty ear ago. Gas i
electricity are being harnessed and
made to do things dreamed of by
our grandfathers. The farmer, too, is
profiting by the perfecting Of these in
yentions, for have not steam and gas
oline engines replaced the horse In
threshing grain, cutting ensilage and
many other jobs around the farm? Are
we optimistic enough to imagine that
at some future date we will be running
our binders, mowers and seeders by
some motive power other than the
horse? One thing is certain. that If
similar strides in agricultural advance
ment are made in the next twenty-five
years to those made IN the last quarter
century, then the up-to-date farmer
will use his head and not his hands, In
the tilling of his land.
In purchasing farm implements, get
those, as far as possible, which will
save walking; get them large, and put
on plenty of team, remembering that
horsepower is cheaper than man-pow-
er. Keep all machines well oiled when
at work, and when not in use have
them stored under cover. .
