DOCTOR THE ONLY ONE OUT

Isaacstein, his wife, and three chill

Isaacstein said to his wife: me

But" replied the wife, that will
cost an awful lot OF money"
"Oh, no, me dear" said Isaacstein,

Then he went round and took sam
pie OF blood from each Of them, and
then some of HIS own, in a bottle.
He went to the doctor, who thought
It rather large sample, and the blood
was duly examined, and a curative
prescription given to Isacstein.

"One guinea" replied the doctor.

they do not know the difference be-
tween a pear and an apple tree. In
most camSs boys learn to make these
distinctions.
In camp boys and girl learn to wash
dishes, to be economical with food and
to like food that they would not
previously eat at home. l have known
camp life to change a boys appetite
completely, so that on going home he
was glad to eat such wholesome foods
as boiled rice and Indian meal mush'
which he would not touch before.
Camping life will not make a child
expert at any particular trade or oc-
cupation, but it serves to show him
how much skill is required in doing
much Of the work usually performed
by the laboring classes. Whenever a
boy tries to perform any manual la
Dor his respect for 1t increases. He
has a try at rowing, swimming, sail
ing, fishing, running an engine, re-
pairing a boat and sometimes in build
ing small boats. He learns the use OF
tools common to country people, who
are more independent of plumbers,
carpenters, masons, etc, than city
people are.
Perhaps one of the most important
lessons for a child to learn is respect
for labor When a boy has hoed a
few hills Of horn he instinctively re-
marks that he would hate to keep
that up all day. If he follows the hay
cart for an hour he realizes that "rak-
ing after" is not all sport. When he
takes a shovel and attempts to assist
in digging a trench or drain he sud
denly realizes why those laborerS
whom he has seen in the city at the
same kind of work seemed to take
their time about it. After five min
utes of that work he learns just where
his backbone is located.
There are many other educational
advantages which are incidental to
camp life such as practice in singing,
speech making, editorial work On the
camp paper, literary entertainments
etc. The camp paper though, seldom
more than a simple manuscript, is
often very ingenious production, in
which the editor, together with the
camp artist, succeeds in bringing
home to the lads some wonderful bits
of news as well as some healthful
truths.
The social advantages Of camp life
are many and varied. The close reia-
ton in which boys live at camp in
varlably resulta in the formation OF
permanent friendships.

Bio Timber Of Guiana.

The "greenheart" of British Guiana
is one Of the most remarkable and
useful trees in the world OF the
three varieties-yellow, black and
maintop--all are Durable if cut at ma
turity, and grow to such dimensions
that logs can be had from Is to "a
inches square and 70 feet long.
Greenheart is one of the eight
woods esteemed as first class by the
Lloyds, and admirable keelsons, piles
and other ship timber, as we'll as sub
merged piling, dock gates, etc, are
made from it, Owing to the great de-
mand for the timbers, and the reck.
less destruction Of trees, the govern
ment has put ban on cutting any
which viii not produce timbers Ii

good Of the boys, but also out OF re-
spect for the felings of the people who
live in the neighborhood. Where pos
sible the children are invited to go to
church, after which they take walks,
go in bathing, read, tell stories, etc.
Usually a song service Of more or
less religious nature is held in the
evening. Often one Of the directors
delivers an address in the main hall
of the camp.
Some of the influences that are
brought forcibly to bear upon the
youths are those which put premium
on honor, truth, patience, generosity,
forgiveness, usefulness, politeness,
sturdiness, pluck and the like. A
camper who is lacking in any of these
qualities is soon made to feel the
need of them, greatly to his benefit.
It does a boy a world Of good to mix
with a lot Of other boys Of his own
age, observing, as he usually will,
their good traits and bad traits.
The educational advantages of camp
life are only less important than are
the moral advantages. For the most
part the school books are closed, but
nature is wide open. Book knowledge
is of great value, but practical knowl-
edge is often of more value.
In camp boys often get their first
practical knowledge of money values.
Here first they manage their own al
lowances and learn what it is to go
broke till the next allowance is dis
tributed. They aften compete with
the native boys of the village in their
efforts to earn small sums Of money
to tide them over or to enable them
to buy coveted treasures. This is a
very good experience for any boy
I have noticed that during the sec
ond year at camp a boy takes better
care of his things than he does during
the first year This may be due to
the fact that near the end of the first
season his clothes, especially his
trousers, were in bad condition, due
to carelessness, and as no new ones
were forthcoming, the lad became
more or less self-conscious about his
appearance, greatly to the delight of
his companions. Sometimes a boys
shoes go wrong, and the parent, know
ing where the fault is, makes him get
on the best he can till he reaches
home
At camp children learn from neces-
sity to mend, sew on buttons, sharpen
tools, and best of all they learn how
important it is to keep tools sharp by
practice in turning the grindstone.

W son at a good summer camp
- it leaves an impression on
lgSErf his mind that time will not
eradicate. At the close OF
the season he has had the fun that
he wanted to have, he has taken his
part in the games and contests, he has
climbed mountains and sailed on lakes
and streams. he has cruised with the
fellows and shared their pleasures and
hardships, and he has returned home
filled with the memories Of gorgeous
feasts, of midnight pranks, of adven-
lures on sea and on land, of encoun-
ters with friend and with foe, and OF
moments when the success or failure
of a battle depended solely on his
strength, his skill and his valor.
The influence left on a childs char
acter by a summer thus spent cannot
but be important. In the first place
the child is away from his parents,
away from those to whom he Is accus-
toned to go for sympathy and advice.
He is placed on his own resources in
a manner quite new and strange.
A camp is not at all like a boarding
school, where there are regular duties
and a fixed routine for each activity OF
the day. The summer camp means
fun, freedom, frolic and chance to do
nothing If one wishes. The boarding
school means order discipline, re-
straint and hard work at all times.
Therefore, when boy finds himself at
a camp for the first time in his life he
is often at loss to know what to do,
because he is often left to his own
choice.
He has many new problems which
must be thought out alone He has
come to camp to have a barrel Of fun,
and he means to have 1t. His first i'm
pulse is to make friends with every
body, and especially with the coun-
sellors. 1t is quite right that he should
do this. And it is the especial duty of
the counsellors to have watchful eye
out for the new boys, to see that they
do not get homesick or tire of the
camp because of inactivity.
Ten weeks of camp life cannot but
have It's effect on the character Of lads
who are Just beginning to feel the first
impulses to do things that they have
read about in books. There are no
boys SO bad that there is not some
good in them, and there are no boys
In camp so good that there is no bad
In them, and some of it Is pretty sure
to crop out before summer is over. In
many boys this badness has been lurk-
ing for years. It has not shown itself
because of lack of opportunity. The
boys camp is one of the places where
the inherent badness in a lad has an
opportunity to unbottle itself without
serious injury to the boy.
But camp life is Of such a nature
that these unbottlings are not Of fire.
quent occurrence. Before a bad habit
has been fixed on the boy he is
brought to a halt and having been
shown that he has been doing wrong
ne learns valuable lesson.
The average summer camp is not
Sunday school. It is not intended for
such. On the other hand the directors
of these camps are for the most part
Christian gentlemen, having high
ideals. A proper respect for the Sab
bath day is required not only for the
