WEARING TROUSERS.

At One Time tho Custom Was Regard
ed as IrreIisious.
1t will assuredly seem more than
strange that at one time. and not SO
long ago, the wearing of trousers was
regarded as irreligious.
The fact that in October, 1912, an
order was made by st. Johns and
Trinity colleges that every young man
who appeared in hall or chapel in pam
falcons or trousers should be consid
cred as absent Is startling enough, but
it would appear that eight years later
the founders Of a Bethel chapel at
Shefield inserted a clause in the trust
deed ordaining that under NO circun1-
stances whatever shall any preacher
be allowed TO occupy the pulpit who
wears trousers"
This Is striking, but Il Is even more
impressive to find that the Rev. Hugh
Bourne. one Of the two founders of the
Primitive Methodist COnneKion, said Of
his co -ounder, That trousers wearing
beer drinking Cloves will never get to
heaven" And it would need a student
OF the Breaches Bible" TO say precise

out the vast importance Of having
things methodicaiIv arranged on a
farm. Care should be exercised in
the placing Of buildings, fences, etc.
for in the different branches OF the
farming business the location OF the
buildings should be changed. TO keep
d complete record and set of books
covering all happenings about the
farm is a most important factor as
by this method the profits and losses
Of each department may be easily OBJ
tanned
How to improve the rank and
standing of the farm, was well handl-
ed by II. J.. Thompson who said thai
the farmer should have more dignity
in the future in order that he may
rank among the foremost men of the
country and not be considered a hay
seed" so TO speak. Incidence. Mr..
Thompson said is the greatest draw
back that the former has. and that
they should strive to keep away from
this drawback and brace up SO that
the public will recognize him as a
man of affairs. 1t is also well for the
farmer TO keep abreast with the civic
affairs of the country that is, he
should read good literature on the cur
rent topics of the day.
Miss Lucy Gilbert read an interest
ing paper, The Farm House and the
Farm Family" bringing out the very
important fact that the home should
always be happy place and suggest
ed that it would be well to place I'M

having the improved machinery for
the filling of the soil.

improvement of the country roads

adds TO the looks Of the place but al
so increases its value. The rOadways

SO that travel over them is always a
pleasant affair and for this reason the
members of this club desire to in
crease the interest in the matter of i'm
provement of country roads and there

FOREMOST AMERICAN
COMPOSER DEAD
Edward Alexander Mcdowell
Answers Call.

New York, Jan. 24-Edward Alexan-
der Mcdowell, who has been recog-
niZed as Americas foremost composer,
died at the Westminster Hospital at s
o'clock last night. He was 46 years
old.
Death was due to a nervous affec.
ton. In the spring of 1906 Mr.. Mac
Dowell suffered a nervous collapse
from which he failed to recover. The
composer spent the last summer at
his summer home in Peterboro, n. II.
returning on November l to this city
where he had made his home during
the winters since 1896, when he re
moved here from Boston.
From the date of his return to town
this winter he failed rapidly.

THE RUBBER TREE.
How the Milk Is Treated After the
Plant Is Tapped.


Plant Is Tapped.
Para rubber is obtained from a large
tree sixty feet high. The trees are tap
ped In the evening. and the juice is
collected on the following morning. A
deep horizontal incision is made near
the base Of the tree, and then from IL
n vertical one extending up the trunk,
with others at short distances in an
oblfque direction. Small shallow cups
made from clay and dried in the sun
are placed below the inCisi0ns TO re-
ceive the milk, each cup being attach
ed by sticking a piece of soft clay to
the tree and pressing the cup against
It. Each tree yields only about six
ounces of juice in three days.
To produce the rubber the juice rs
piece OF wood about three feet long,
with a flattened clay mold at one end
of it. is dipped in the milk, or this is
placed over it as evenly as possible
The milk is then carefully dried by
turning the mold round and round in
a white vapor obtained by heating GER
tain oily palm nuts, the vapOr being
confined within certain limits by the
narrowness of the neck Of the pot In
which the nuts are heated. Each layer
of rubber is allowed to become firm
before adding another. A practiced
hand can make five or six pounds an
hour.-New York American.

Heart
Troubles

The heart may be weak
just the same as the eyes,
stomach or other organs.
1t often happens that a
person is born with a weak
heart. Then again dis
ease, fevers, over-exertion,
anxiety, nervousness,
. rheumatism, etc. weaken
the heart. The result is
shortness of breath, pal
pitation, pain in the heart,
or in some of the nerves
of the chest or abdomen.
The heart should be
strengthened with a tonic,

couIdn't Tell Dukes.

On one occasion the Duke Of Sutherland
had a highly amusing experience when
travelling north. AT Edinburgh an Ameri-
can got into the same compartment as
the duke, and q conversation was opened.
AT a small station another traveller. as
unassuming and as plainly dressed as the
duke, entered the carriage. and, recog-
nizing his grace, the new conner greeted
him cordially. The three talked amicably
until they reached Perth, where the last
arrived %alighted. Seeing several footmen
respectfully approach the traveller, the
American turned to his companion. and
vaid, Can you tell me who that gentle-
man was?' ooh, yes answered the
duke, carelessly; that was the Duke of
Fife" Indeed" calculated the Amert-
can. 1T was very condescending Of him
70 laugh and chat with ordinary chaps
IKE ourselves" The duke smilingly
agreed. Presently his grace reached the
vtaticn where he wished to alight, and as
the train came to a standsil he shook
hands with the American and said good
Wy. To his great surprise the American
noticed that his late fellow traveller was
also met by a retinue of servants, and,
leaning out of the carriage window, he
asked the guard the name of the gentle
man. The Duke of Sutherland" came
the reply. 81 did not know the aristo-

way" said the American; pray tell me
