When Miss Constance Collier was

taking with the late Robert Taber

vein of reminiscence.

very striking bit of business. The

her over his shoulder"
Miss Collier looked at him in con-

ever, they did their best, but their
futile efforts were interrupted by
Mr. Tree.

Loving Ones Work

If man doesn't love his work, he
had better get something else to do.
But the trouble is that such people
will hardly love any kind of work
The trouble is in them They lack
intelligence If they knew enough
to know good work they would soon
learn to love it. The manual train
ing scheme has this in view-to sur
round the job a man is doing with
such Intelligence and taste as will
make it attractive to him.
'The man who is in love with his
job gets more contentment out Of
life than any other" says Brander
Matthews; and he gets great part
of his contentment in doing his work
right. No man can love his work
who shirks. No man can be content
ed who is dishonest about his work.
This is shirking or doing it negli-
gently. So these things always go
ogether-honest work, contentment
and love of the job.

The KieI Canal,

In shipping especially in Ger
man naval-circles the stoppage Of
the Kiel Canal was regarded with
deep concern. Was not the canal
originally intended to secure ''a cer-
tain (safe) passage" for German war
and merchant ships between the
North Sea and the Baltic? A compar-
atively slight accident had rendered
the canal worthless, despite the or
iginal expenditure of e10,000,0O0
$3.50, O,000,000). The German naval
authorities have long recognized that
the canal no longer meets the re-
quirements of to-day. German Dread
noughts can pass through only with
the greatest care, and the Warships
of 10000 tons now building will not
go through at all. Although the
canal dues are rather heavy the pass
age is utilized by a great deal of ship
ping, and it saves a stormy, round
about journey of about 400 miles.
The sum of 100000 is to be ex-
pended on doubling the width and in
creaging the depth of the waterway

Shall We Soon Starve?

One might look upon ]. J. Hill as
something of a jeremiah or Cato
the elder, were it not that he usually
has a way of proving the things he
says by figures. Just now he tells
us that it is quite possible that many
persons now living will feel the pinch
of hunger. He considers that il
things go on as at present by the
middle Of this century there will be
a population of 20O,000,000 souls
and not nearly enough food for them
He is particularly pessimistic on the
wheat situation. He insists that un-
less radical steps are taken soon, 40
years hence we shall have to import
100000 bushels of wheat annu-
ally at cost of 100000 and
we shall not have the money to pay
for it even if it can be secured at any
price. Of course, we may eat a lot
of corn bread, but that will mean
that the meat supply will be cut
down.
There is way out of this Difficult
ty, but Mr.. Hill isn't supine as to
our taking it. He wants the farmers
to educate their boys to be farmers
and to be better farmers than any
now living. He wants the people to
take an immediate interest in the
matter Of food supply, because if the
matter is. postponed much longer it
will be too late to obviate an i'm
mense amount of suffering. Phila-

Why the Dominic Lost.

A newly appointed Scottish, minis
ter on his first Sunday Of office had
reason to complain of the poorness
of the collection.
Mon" replied one of the elders,
they are close, vera sclose; but
confidentially-'tthe aul' meenister,
he put three of four saxpence into
the plate hissel', just to gle them a
start. Of course, he took the sax
pence ava with him afterward."
The new minister tried the same
plan, but the next Sunday again had
to report the :dismal failure. The
total collection was not. only small,
but he was grieving to find that his
own sixpences were missing.
"Ye may be better preacher than
the auid meenister.'' exclaimed the
the elder. 'but if ye had half the

SOME Hir;D KNOCKS

The injurious action of Coffee on
the heart of many persons is well

Of the trouble. She writes:

STEAMED CLANS.

A novel way of serving steamed
clans is described in the New York
Sun. In front of every plate was a,
saucer and a part of melted butter
which was a little favored with mus
tard. Stretching almost across the
table and within easy reach of every
guest was a large round waiter.
Watercress had been laid over the
bottom of it until it formed a green
bed. On that the steamed clans were
piled. Every person helped himself
or herself directly from the waiter.

1 could not sleep day or night because of
that dreadful itching; when 1 did sleep it
was from sheer exhaustion. 1 was one

The doctors medicine seemed to make me
worse and I was almost out of my mind. I
got set of the Cuticura Soap, Ointment

for twenty-four hours. That night slept
