THE WOMAN AND THE CARROT
Parable Taken From the Russian FINK
Lore Points a Lesson Full
OF Meaning.
JOHN w, LYONS. Clerk

This was the story my friend the
Arkansas rabbi told. It Is from the
folk lore of Russia:
A woman who had lain In torment
thousand years lifted her face to-
ward heaven and cried to the Lord to
set her free, for she could endure 1t no
longer. And he looked down and said:
"Can you remember one thing you
did for a human baing without reward
In your earth life?"
The woman groaned in bitter an
guish, for shO had lived In selfish
ease; the neighbor had been nothing to
her.
WAS there not one? Think well!"
"Once-it was nothing-I gave to a
starving man carrot, and he thanked
me-"
"Bring. then. the carrot. Where is
it?"
'It is long since. Lord" she sobbed.
"and 1t is lost"
mot 80. Witness of the one un-
selfish deed of your life. 1t could not
perish. Co." said the Lord to an an
gel, "find the carrot and bring It

IT'S Different NOW.

An old fashioned Kansas editor has
concluded that some of these modern
new tangled ideas are no improve
ments over the ones that were in
vogue when he was boy. He says
when he was young, people with bad
colds sacked their feet in hot water
and took few draughts of catnip tea
and got WE'LL Now they have lagrippe
take quinine and feel sick all summer.
When they had sore throats, they
wrapped piece of bacon in an old
wool stocking, tied it around the
neck at night and went to work the
next day. Now they have tonsilitis,
surgical operation and two weeks in
the hospital. Then they had stomach
trouble and took castor oil and re-
covered. Now they have appendicitis
week in the hospital and six feet
due east and west and six feet per-
pendicular. In those days they wore
underclothes, now they wear lingerie.
Then they went to restaurant now
they go to a cafe. Then they broke
leg, now they fracture limb.
People went crazy, now they have
brain storms-or are born crazy, we
don't know which. Politicians then
paid good, hard cash for support, now
they send government seed instead.
Yes, times have changed and we all
change with the times. That is pro-
gress.

Sir Henry Irving a Victim.

Mr. Grossmith, the noted English
funmalser, just deceased, was an in.
veterate joker, and Sir Henry Irving
was once his victim when they were
both staying at the same hotel at
Manchester Mr.. Grossmith, seeing an
enormous crowd outside the hotel,
said to the porter: Are these peo.
pie waiting to see me?" On being told
that they were waiting to see Sir
Henry he turned up the collar of his
overcoat, adjusted his eyeglasses,
pulled his soft hat down over his eyes,
and walked down the steps with the
Irving gait. There was great cheering
but when Sir Henry Irving went down
later the crowd had dispersed. After.
ward, when Sir Henry heard Of the in.
cident, he said to Mr.. Grossmlth, with
a twinkle in his eye: "You ought not
to have done that; 1 pay those people
to come here every night."-London

SALT as A FERTILIZER

r. Fl. Munday, London, Ontario,
writes as fellows: Can you please
tell me If dirty salt from tannery
spread thinly on clay loan would be
of any benefit as a fertilizer? What
is a good fertilizer for onions?"
You will find that salt is not much
good as fertilizer. We have known
eff experiments-in fact, it has been
experimental with considerably-in
which it did not affect the yield to
any material extent, 1t may have a
little effect on the physical condition
of the soil under some conditions, but,
generally speaking, whatever this
effect may be, it is not worth the
trouble of prlying the salt.
The four principal plant food
elements are nitrogen, phosphor
us, potassium and calcium. The
first three named are the most i'm
portant Salt does not supply any OF
these plant food elements. Salt ii
made up of hydrogen and chlorine.
The best fertilizer for onions de,
pends upon the conditions of the soil,
and as we are not familiar with your
soil, we cannot give you this def
nitely. Generally speaking, onions re
quire very fertile land in order to give
best returns. This crop seems to
demand an unusual amount of avail
able potassium, and for this reason it
is sometimes advisable to apply
potassium fertilizer. Sulphate of pot
ash has been found to give better
returns than potash in other forms.
Stable manure is very good for onions,
but should be applied in the fall One
objection to using stable manure is
that it carries great many weed
seeds, and thus may increase the labor
OF caring for the onions. The pres.
encs of linn is also very conducive to
growing good onion crops,

md it is a certainty that the bell
makers of more than a century ago
were masters of their profession and
are not equaled by those of the pres
ent time. Within the mission is the
original baptistry which has occupied
the same position ever since the mis-
sion was erected, and is made of
hammered copper, and was brought
from Spain in 1771 for this mission.
Just at the left and elevated few
feet above the altar is the pulpit
from which the padre delivered his
sermons, and this pulpit is now used
every Sunday just as it was in the
early days of the mission The main
doors are made entirely of wood and
there is not piece of metal used in
their construction or in their hang
ing-the hinges" being simple NOR
tices in which the door is hung, and
the fastenings are also made of wood.
Simplicity of construction is notice
able in every particular, and yet a
wonderful amount of natural ability
is manifested in the entire construc-
tion work. In the area are several
beautiful fig trees, and it was here
l was permitted for the first time in
my life to pick figs from the tree.
A bit of very interesting news was
brought to light Just about the time
of our visit to San Gabriel concern
ing this mission and the lost valley in
the San Jacinto mountains, which has
been lost to modern history but
which has been rediscovered by Rev
b. Florian Hahn, M. A., rector of the
ming, and one of the oldest priests in
point of service in southern Cali
fornia.
Father Hahn's discovery reveals
some unpublished and interesting his
torical facts. He finds that in 1871,
the year in which the mission of San
Gabriel was founded, large cara
van of Catholics emigrated from So
nora, Mex, to the Land of Promise,
near San Gabriel. On this pilgrim
age the caravan did not pass through
the Banning valley, as historians con-
tend, but reached it's destination via
the Lost Valley of San Carlos. There
were 120 Catholics in the expedition,
led by two priests, and driving a
thousand cattle.
The record secured by Father Hahn
is from diary left by one of the
priests of the expedition, which was
written in Spanish, and yet, after
more than century, is legible.
Leaving the mission which is rich
in history and interest and wherein
one might spend many days delving
in the old and musty records and
studying the ancient paintings and
tapestries that are so carefully treas
ured here, my faithful friend and

RAY CASE UNDER UNDER
 INVESTIGATION
HOUSE COMMITTEE PROPOSES TO GO DEEP INTO ARMY SCANDAL
 LATELY DEVELOPED.
Charles p. Taft and Theodore Roose- welt Will Be Called Upon to
 Give Testimony. '

Washington, Feb 20.-Former Pres ident Roosevelt, as witness in the Ray case, was one of the possibilities developed tndax in the investigation which the house committee on eXpen- ditures ill the war department is mak- ing into the charges against Major Beecher B Ray an army paymaster. The committee has already decided to subpoena Charles P. Taft of CiHcin- natl. brother of President Taft.
 "I favor calling Theodore Roosevelt and everyone who has had anything to do with the retention of Major Ray in the United States army" declared Representative Difenderfer of Penn sylvania, a member of the committee.
 eve ought to know if MT. Roosevelt used the same tactics in this case that he did in fomenting the Panama revolution The Ray case has devel- oped since the committee began to delre into it, a series of circumstances which should be probed to tue very bottom
 On the face of such evidence as we have already before us, there is ap- parent condition in the army that calls for thorough investigation. The committee intends to go to the very top, whether it be chief of staff or the president of the United States. The majority leaders of this commit tee are with me in this"
 The subpoena of Charles P. Taft and the suggestion that Colonel Roosevelt might be called are se- auences of the charge that Major Ray was active in politics during the Chicago convention which nominated President Taft. President Roosevelt was closing his tern when Major Ray was ordered from the Philippines to Chicago
 The only subpoena issued today was fur General Tasker H. Bliss, now. at Fort Totten. N, Y. General Bliss was at the war department several years ago when dharges were made against Major Ray.
