No Fences in Belgium.

In beautiful Belgium there are no
fences. Neither are there hedges, as
in England. The boundaries of the
fields are raised up by fairly high
earth banks, and the roads are cut
out of them, as it were, so that when
you are walking in the country you
are down in a sort of valley, with low
green banks on either side of you.
The things that are chiefly cultivat-
ed in Belgium are the beet root, for;
making the cheaper kind of sugar,
you know, and you can see field upon
field of their reddy-green leaves
stretching on either side of you as
you walk along
Flax is also much grown over there
and in summer time the fields are
such pretty sight when the pale blue
flax blossoms are out in full bloom.
Belgian asparagus is also renowned
all over Europe. 1t has white instead
of purple-green tips, like our home
grown asparagus.

Generally, it is said, no feeling of de-

A medical experimenter in Ken

of haschisch, began to feel very ex-

possessed him; all fatigue seemed
banished forever, and his mind ran
riot, one bizarre idea after another

latter periods was never longer than
two minutes, but each seemed an
eternity. 1t appeared hopeless task

Women Who Write at Home.

About one woman in 100 keeps up
her music after marriage, although
they may have passed years of their
own time and spent many dollars be-
longing to their fathers in study. The
number that drops off in art is even
greater, but writing has a fascination
difficult to resist. A great deal of the
writing done by women comes from
homes, more or less comfortable and
happy. Much of it is the kind not
easily duplicated and it would be non
sense to compel such women to forget
their talents. Many son has been
fitted for his life work by the ability
of his mother to earn money at a
steady rate.

The Journal and Sentinel in Accord on
Compulsory PiIotage.

The Korncbcc Journal replying To
our criticism of its editorial in regard
to the defeat of the pl"taGc bill in the
last Congress. still insists that the
bill was beaten by southern Demo-
Gratis and asserts, in support Of its
position that So out of 113 Southern
members voted againts it. OF course
they did. Our point was not that the
bill was not opposed by Southern
members. We said that it vas
Watcrvi!le Sentinel.
AS the point made by the Journal
was that "the South lined up in prac-
ticaly solid opposition" to the repeal OF
the law which permits 12O Southern
pilots to levy perpetual tribute upon
Northern shipping it would seem after
all to be in accord with its Water
vile contemporary. The statement
that IS out OF the 113 members from the
South voted in favor of the retention
of this notorious graft is. however, a
trine misleading, inasmuch as only 100
of them were present and voted on
the bill for repeal. We are gratified
to learn that the Sentinel agrees with
us that the bill for repeal Ought to
have passed.
The Journal stated it's belief that a
section of the country which was so
ready to sacrifice the shipping interests
of Maine and New England, in order
that a select body of 120 Southern
pilots might continue to grow rich by
lcvying robber tribute upon it.,
would have scant consideration for the
interests of this section if once it were
in control of the National government.
We feel sure that the Sentinel,
upon further consideration of the mat
ter, will agree with us on this propo-
sition also.
