The Carpet Cure,

Matrimony reduced the Smith house

1t but the old couple, neither of whom
looks old enough to be in the father
and mother in law class. When Bessie
got married Papa Smith took posses
sion of her room, and it has been his
study. library, smoking room and
growlery since then, and its condition
made the life OF his otherwise happy
wife a burden. ''Since he has his
ROOM" she complained, John has de-
veloped a passion for disorder which
would break a bousckeeper's heart. !"

was asked. NO" els there a rug|'

down." was her friends advice, and
1t was followed. HE was little sur
prised to find it, said the woman.

been Uttered, there's more order on
the desk and the place looks tidy.

of this Board to serve the people of

that are neld monthly you
would come to this conclusion. Cases
like this have been brought to our
attention, both from the shops, and
men on the streets, that men have
been solicited for work, and they
would refuse the job offered, saying:
"Oh, we don't need to work, when
the winter comes, and we need help,
the Associated Charities will help u.s."
To our knowledge we do not help
single case of that kind. l say-to our
knowledge. But we do not claim to
know everything. Now, how can you
help us? Simply send to our Office, or
to any one of the Board, the names of
such parties and we will see to it that
aid is withheld from any such. The
public will do us a great favor by do
ing this, and we will be very grateful
to you. The past month has been
hard on our treasury. Over $500 were
spent for the needy Some very dis
tressing cases claimed our attention
There has been very much sickness
among the people. One family that
has never asked for any help was
found in great need. The father who
was sick, did not want his name on
the books of the township trustee,
and it was hard to receive help from
the Association, but necessity was up
on them. The father is now about
able to work and he wants to pay back,
if possible, some of the money that
was expended for his family Many
are old and helpless and need assist
ance from the Association. Case after
case could be mentioned that would
make the heart bleed We need more
help. Less than 200 people, as in
dividuals have responded to our ap-
peal. Eight hundred families received
our letter of appeal. Dear friends. we
are doing your work. Show by your
contribution that you appreciate what
is being done and that there are those
who are taking this burden from your
shoulders. How much is that worth to
you? March and April are usually
hard months. The resources are ex-
hausted, everything that had been laid
in is used up, and they need to be
bridged over. If you have not helped
any yet, will you not do so without
delay. You can not make a better in
vestment, you are laying up treasures
in heaven as you do it in the name of
Jesus. Rev. c. Huber.

Securing a Meal.
In a field of feeding hares foxes have
been observed to approach with a slow,
limping motion and holding down their
heads, as IL eating clover, until they
were near enough to secure their prey
The following is an extraordinary in
stance of fox cunning: One week when

snow. farmer placed hen under a
strong, heavy chicken coop The coop
was boarded on one side and lathed on
the other, the lower lath within an inch
of the ground, which was smooth. but
sloping, with a furrow-like depression
a few inches In depth about two feet
up the slope.
In the morning the hen was gone.
The coop stood Immediately over the
depression, the laths bearing numerous
impressions of an animals teeth, and
the small one at the apex was scratch
ed by its claws
The fox had wasted no strength on
the board trying to push the coop over
In an uphill direction. but he tried his
best ON the other side. Failing in this,
he bit and tore at the iaths To break
them and finally drew the coop up the
