Merely a Drop in the Bucket

From Everybody's Magazine.
 An old Greenock salt applied for em- ployment aboard a vessel, but, having no discharge papers. he was rejected in fa- vor of younger man whose written ere dentials proved satisfactory to the cap tain. Subsequentlyy, however. the cap tain was unable to obtain a crew of fully qualified seamen, and at the last moment he signed on the Greenock man for transatlantic voyage.
 The first day out, he was put to work washing down the deck, while his rival with the discharge papers was perched aloft with a bucket. adding a coat of tar to the rigging Even as the old salt was casting sour glances at his qualified shipmate, the vessel gave lurch and the unfortunate seaman dropped over the side, bucket and all
 The old salt made his way leisurely toward the bridge.
 NOW. Cap'n." he said, you know that mon yer signed on WI the papers?'
 Well. what of 1t, my man?" the cap tain rejoined.

"ORion" Dish Cost Him ee0
 Middleboro. Ohio, Correspondence Bos-
 ton Post.
 When Lester Darrow. wealthy resi- dent of this town, asked his cook to-pre- pare some onions for dinner a few days ago, he did not know that this special dish would cost him $eO. It did, however When six fine looking onions were placed on the table at noon, MT. Oar row's appetite waxed keen and he start ed to eat one of them. It did not ex- actly suit his taste and on close insuec- ton he found that the supposed onion was anything but one. He then asked the cook where she had procured the '.onions," and she told him she had found them in the barn, where she had thought the gardener had left them.
 At once MT. Darrow remembered that he had placed in the barn six gladiolus bulbs which he had imported from Japan at an expense of approximately $l0 each and he soon discovered that it was these bulbs that the cook had prepared for his dinner.

HOW TO WASH WINDOWS.

Strange as it may seem, there is a
right and wrong way to wash win
dows, and as this operation is usually
dreaded, the following method will
doubtless be appreciated, as it saves
both time and labor. Choose a dull
day, or at least a time when the sun
is not shining on the windows, for
when the sun shines on the window it
causes it to be dry streaked, no mat
ter how much it is rubbed. Take a
painters brush and dust them inside
and out, washing all the woodwork in
side before touching the glass. The
latter must be washed slowly in warm
water diluted with ammOnia-do not
use soap. Use small cloth with a
pointed stick to get the dust out of
the corners, wipe dry with a soft piece
of cotton cloth-do not use linen as it
makes the glass linty when dry. Pol
ish with tissue paper or old newspaper.
You will find that this can be done in
half the time taken when soap is
used, and the result Will be brighter
windoWS-The StOrekeepeT.

WHAT WOMEN CAN DO.

Now that women are to be found
in almost every business and profess
sion, it is not surprising to learn that
members of the fair sex will risk per-
lis in the search for gold. 1t is re-
norted that several women rushed to
Bitter Creek, near Stewart City, Brit
ish Columbia, in the hope of being
able to peg out the limit of 1900
square feet for claims. Hundreds of
women followed the miners from the
eastern states of America across the
continent TO California and Colorado,
in their feverish quest for gold, in
1919: and during the rush to the Yu-
kou and Alaska the fair sex was very
conspicuous, and women could be
seen working shoulder to shoulder
with the men in the mines.
During the last few years women
have taken largely to farming and
market gardening in order to obtain
a lievelihood, and it is interesting to
know that Brockwell farm, at Wendo-
YER in Bucks, which is over ESQ acres
In extent. is managed and worked by
the Misses Scott with notable success.
The ladies are the daughters Of the
late Mr.. Scott, a retired master mari
per. who ran the farm during the last
few years of his life Since his death
they have carried on the farm with
very little male labor. The Misses
Scott rear their own stock and train
the animals as they reach majority.
They also pillow their own fields and
break in the colts, the sisters being
expert horse-breakers.

THE ART OF HAVING TIME.

The people who work the hardest
and accomplish the most are not those
who complain of lack of time Those
who constantly put their time to good
use do not excuse themselves from
duty on the plea of lack of time. The
people who have the most irons in
the fire are those most ready to re-
ceive and forge another Goethe, one
of the busiest men that ever lived, has
said: Time is endlessly long. and ev-
cry day is a vessel into which much
may be poured, if one will readily fill
it up" And again: lone has always
time enough, if he will improve it
we'll" But we are also to remember
what another wise German has said:
To-day is the opportunity for enjoy
ment and work. Knowest thou where
thou wilt be on the marrow" A
greater spirit than either has said:
Are there not twelve hours in the
day?"

nm WHAT SHE COULD.

A pretty stroy is told of Mr.. Robert
Barrett Browning, son of the poet.
who revived the industry Of lace max
ing among the Italian peasants.
The work which was done in the
homes of the peasant workers was
brought to the ctory for approval or
rejection. and h woman was paid
according to ler s4ill and the quality
of her work Among those who at
tempted the nicate work was an old
woman above yes of age. wild

old fingers labored o. a piece of lace
Of elaborate design, which was finally
completed and brought to the factory
for inspection.
The superintendent examined the
work. which Was faulty and uneven,
and then consulted Mr.. Browning,
asking What shall we do with it,

THE ROSARY.

October is dedicated in a special
manner TO the angels, but is best
known in the Church as the month OF
the rosary. The rosary is at once the
most appealing and most misrepresent-
ed of all Catholic devotions among
those who do not understand its mean
ing.
Few practices of the Church are
more widespread than the rosary OF
the Blessed Virgin. It consists OF the
best of all prayers-the Apostle S
Greed. the Our Father, three Hail
Marys, and the Glory be to the Fa-
Their: then the Our Father and ten
Hail Marys repeated five times. This
constitutes the beads. or one-third
part of the rosary. During the reci-
tation of these players, the mind
should be occupied mediating on the
principal mysteries of the life of our
Lord.
These mysteries are divided into the
five joyful mysteries: the Annuncia-

a gathering, unique in its way, is

necessary to obtain Convention hall for

THE CHRISTIAN MOTHER.

Wherein lies the strength of the
Christian mother? 1t is in her vir-
tues. Her modesty captivates and
commands the respect of all. Her de-
velopment and self-sacrificing spirit
teaches a lesson worthy of limitation
and her wisdom and self-poise are en-
tightening and reassuring to those
around her. Such a one is pillar of
strength to the home and guide and
counsellor to the society in which she
lives. Her power for good is only linn
tied by her environments, and the fruit
of her good example is visibly marked
in those who make up the circle of her
friends.-Thomas a KempiF.

COURTEsy N MARRIED LIFE.

1t seems to me- said the cynic,
that love is not so much needed IN
the ordinary marriage as downright
ordinary politeness."
During his counting days a man is
a perfect Sir Walter Raleigh, spread
ing his coat for every imaginary mud
puddle, but this veneer soon drops
off from him in great patches.
II is the wife's province to prevent
this from happening from the very
start
Little things like neglecting to pull
out chair when the wife sits down
to table should not be overlooked for
one instant: also smoking without
asking permission, neglecting to ask to
be excused from the table, etc.
Very often in marriage too great
an atmosphere of informality takes
the place Of the customary politeness
between man and woman, and bitter
words are exchanged, rude things are
said, and a general atmosphere abso-
IutelN foreign TO good breeding IS the
result.
