Kings Daughters has been announc-
ed for the 18th of November this
year. All kinds of good things to eat
will be sold -candy, cake. meats, sal
ads, salad dressings, home made deli
cacies to tempt the most epicureap
appetites. The Kings Daughters are
noted for the toothsome dainties
which they sell so reasonably every
year, and this fact in conjunction
with the true merit of the cause for
which they are working, makes their
deIicatessen sales always well patron
lied. The place of the sale has not
been definitely decided upon as yet,
though 1t will be somewhere In town.

blue pillows hecked with white foam
and surrounded with asters. The
place cards were outriger canoes with
the names on the sail The table

um's guests were Miss GenevieVe

Mrs. Frederick Barker, Miss Hazel

Venetian Carnival to Open at 7:3o.
To costume or not to costume has
been the absorbing question of the
last few days for those intending to
take in the Venetian carnival this
evening Dominoes of all hues and
styles are under way, and Pierrots,
columbines and every conceivable
disguise is being evolved. Of course
the committee members and those
taking part are wearing more elab-
crate costumes, SOME of them being
really beautiful in their silks and
satins while others again have their
charm in their quaint peasant SIM
plicity. Mrs. Richard Ivers, the pres
ident of the Free kindergarten and
Children's Aid Association, has mod
eled a costume from one Of Titian's

What a Diver Saw asIo,x.

Yes, not only are their nerves Of iron.
but hearts of iron as well. The courage
of diver must be nothing short of the
courage of a lion. But sometimes this
fearlessness even in the strongest of
them is broken and they go no longer
into the green depths. The case mean
is this: AZ.
A diver lthere is no need of telling his
name) was sent to recover the bodies OF
a young. man aud his .fianeee.iJA yacht
had capsized in a squat. After days OF
searching the diver caught sight OF
them. The day was unusually bright
and as he was not very far below the
surface all objects were picked out with
astonishing vividness. Coming around
tho edge of a big ledge of rock. he saw
two forms that appeared to be sittine
down together on the edge of q jagged
stone. A corner of this had caught the
womans dress and held them fast.
The diver saw that her long, beautiful
hair hung loosely and that she wasafeAn.
ing against the man With one arm around
his neck. Coming close, he saw that the
man held her tightly with one arm. and
that the other was stretched out

But If the manufacturer of cider
coald hear the common lament of city
| folks because eff their inability to get
| the kind OF cider they used to get
! back home" he would use another
| term for the loss of revenue in the
crler business. 1t is hardly fair to the
good old home beverage to say that
the popularity" of cider has decreased
30 per cent in five years, even though
the sales may have fallen off to that
figure
The rush t. the cities may have had
something To do with it: the neglect of
the small orchards has had an intiu-
cnce on the decrease of the cider out
put. The fact that apple growing has
become big commercial industry and
the small orchard where apples were
grown for domestic use alone have
been succeeded by great apple ranches,
undoubtedly has proved to be an inn
portant factor in the downfall of the
old-fashloned institution of sweet cider
md doughnuts as the favorte home
ard fireside entertainment.
The men who operate orchards now
of hundreds of acres do not waste. their
time with cider mills. They build
send trains loaded with apples from
the orchard to the market.
rhe average farmer has become en-
crossed in wheat raising or stock
breeding and depends upon the mar
ket place for his winter supply Of APP
pies.
The old custom of neighborhood
mills for the manufacture of cider for
a. ,,Io
doned. Under that system of commu-
nifty interest one farmer would buy a
cider mill which was operated by
horse power, and every neighbor with
in "a radius of six or eight miles would
bring u load or two of apples to the
mill. The cider maker would retain a
certain percentage of the cider for his
toll and sell it to the local mer-
chants for vinegar. That would con-
stitute his revenue for the investment
in the mill.
Every home had cider in those days.
and the mills that were located near
the towns found a ready market for
their output Of sweet cider from GUS
toners who brought jugs and buckets
to the mill to be filed with the product
fresh from the apples.
That was the day of rea! sweet cid
CT, and with doughnuts such as moth
or used 10 make" there was nothing
more needed except heaping pan of
popcorn. of course. to associate sweet
cider with the happiest days of life
back yonder"
But now the cider mills have be-
come big commercial institutons+-llke
the orchards. They are not SO handy
to the home life as the old community
mill made them, and there is a suspic-
ion that some of the product is second .
hand" before it reaches the consumer.
1t lacks the ginger and the "snap"
of the cider from the freshly filed jugs
Of the old days--or else imagination has
much to do with the appetite for cider.

A Theory About Dreams.

As an actual sound. heard by the
sleeper, frequently becomes part of his
dream, usually ending it. there is
theory that the sound is also the cause
of the dream. For example, the ring

causes the mind To recede. in point or
time, and construct a piece of imagery
or a series Of images. coming to q eli
max and ending abruptly at the ring
ing az the actual bell. This is difficult
to believe, anG there is no proof of its
truth. There is evidence that dreams
occur in much shorter time than seems
to the dreamer; yet to say that the
ringing of Il bell could be both the ORR
gin and the final shock of the spectral
drama is equal to saying that the play
upon the imagination is instantaneous.
In a more logical, though less sensa-
tionai theory, the dream could be un-
derstood as originating without refer
ence To facts or disturbances in the OK
ternal world. After a series of scenes
in the sleepcrs mind, bell rings

and associates it with more or less
relevancy to the situation at that stage

dreaming of a man walking along Il
road. The man on the road goes hither
and thither and takes part in episodes
that as yet have no bearing upon any
fact in the external world. Upon the
