Safe From Destruction.

@There is no hint at the destruction
of the home or at the dissolution OF
the family in the suggestion that pos
sibly some day women workers may
continue to work after marriage. y
This is the conclusion to which Will
lam Hard and Rheta Child Dorr
come in The Woman's INVASION" in
Everybody's. 1t is interesting-ex-
ceedingly so-in the light of the mis-
leading statements of the case that
have been spread abroad lately.
1T is not believed that such a con-
tinuation of work on their part would
in any way imperil either the home or
the family, provided the following
conditions were observed:
First. The education of their
children, from babyhood up, shall be
properly carried forward for five
hours or so every day in day nur-
series, kindergartens, etc.
Second. Cooking shall be done in
central kitchens from which meals
shall be distributed to homes.
Third. For women with children
there shall be a shortened work-day.
Fourth. At childbirth women
shall rest from their industrial work

Hair Famine is Imminent.

There are few women in this coun-
try to-day who are not wearing coils
or toupees shorn from the heads OF
maids in France, Switzerland, Ger
nan or Hungary. There will be
less false hair dressing in the future,
unless a new source of supply is
found. The several governments OF
Europe are legislating to make 1t IL
legal for a girl to sell her hair or for
an agent to buy it. But there is an
other reason for the growing scarcity
of hair for artificial purposes, and
that is the practical exhaustion of
the European supply. So great has
been the American demand for the
last six months that there is hardly
a peasant girl to be found with long
tresses. The girls of Brittany for
many years have given the finest coils
to the market, and every head there
has been shorn. AS it takes several
years to grow coils to equal the first
crop, it is evident that a hair famine
threatens. It's first effects will be felt
by the American woman, who, how
ever luxuriant her own hair, is not
satisfied, but needs must borrow

Early Surgery.

Benvenuto Cellini (1500-1571)
tells of early Italian surgery. He had
got a bit of Clipped steel in his eye,
so far into the pupil that it was I'M
possible to get it out, so that I was
in very great danger of losing that
eye" But the surgeon came to the
rescue with the pigeons. 1.-THE sur.
geon, making me lie upon my back;
with a little knife opened a vein in
each of their wings, so that the blood
ran into my eye, and I was thereby
greatly relieved. In the space OF
two days the bit of steel issued from
my eye, and I found that had re-
ceived considerable ease, and in a
great measure recovered my sight

Right Use of Money.

It is a problem in many good fam
lilies, as we'll as others which are not
so good, to know how to manage the
question of the child's allowance.
Shall the children in the home be paid
for doing work about the house or
shall they do whatever needs to be
done as a part of their share simply
because they are members of the fam
lily? Shall a boy be allowed a certain
amount of money each month as his
W and permitted to spend it in his
own way? What restriction, if any,
shall be placed about the financial
part of the child's education?
These questions are not simple and
are not answered without much
thought, and are not answered in the
same way with, all children.
At a recent opening of an immense
skating ring in one of our Western
cities, hundreds of boys and girls were
noted crowding into this building.
each M paying fifty cents admission,
and during the course of the evening
buying refreshments averaging about
fifty cents each in addition. Many Of
these were boys and girls not I'VE
fifteen years of age. The question
could not help being asked by older
ones looking on, Where did these chill
dren get this money? Did they earn
it, or was it given to them outright
by their parents with no restrictions
as to how it was to be spent?-

Problem of the Apples,

Two boys had sixty apples. Each
had thirty. One boy sells his apples
at three for one cent, thereby getting
ten cents. The other sells his apples
ct two apples for one cent, thereby
getting -.ftaen cents. Both will get
twenty-five cents. Now, if both boys
combine their stock and sell their ap-
pies at five for two cents they will
only get twenty-four cents. The ques-
ton is, why in the first sales do they
get twenty-five cents for their stock
by selling them at five for two cents,
and in the next instance get only
t~wenty-four cents for the same num-
Der of apples at the same price?-M.

SABLE ISLAND PONY HUNTS.
Catching the Wild Horses Which In
habit the Place of Wrecks.

haoAS AN
When the supply of horses runs
low in Nova Scotia an expedition goes
to Sable Island, rounds up a herd of
wild ponies, selects the best Of the
lot, lassoes them and transports them
to the mainland and captivity. Most
persons know Sable Island as one OF
the places where the transatlantic
liners are picked up by wireless and
reported, and also as the place OF
shipwrecks, but the wild horses con.
stitute an interesting feature Of it..
Sable Island is about 100 miles
southeast of Cape Canso. 1t Is often
confused with Cape Sable Island,
which is the southwestern extremity
of Nova Scotia. It doesn't fit in with
ones ideas Of a horse ranch, IN fact
many persons think Of it as a barren
waste, but it has about 200 square
miles of territory and is fairly fertile.
1t was treeless until the Government
began to plant trees there in order
to make the island more conspicuous
to mariners.
The ponies thrive ana are a hardy
lot. They prefer the open, refusing
the rough shelters which persons
with an eye to future profits have
erected for their comfort. When a
storm comes, as it does frequently,
the horses gather in hollows between
the sandhills and line up as if for a
battle. The herds arrange them
selves with the colts in the centre.
the mares next, then the stations n
the master stallion Of the herd in the
most exposed situation.
The roundup comes at least once a
year and is exciting sport. The ISL
and is swept from end to end and
the horses driven into a large pound.
The roping of those marked down
for shipment is a hazardous task and
EQUALS a bronco busting tournament
in spectacular interest. When a
horse is thrown and tied he is loaded
ANONYMOUSLY onto a w~heelbarrow
and carted to a surf boat which takes
him to the Halifax steamship.-NeW
