Uauqh Away the Clouds.

Mistakes are to be laughed at If
one were to take seriously every little
mistake he made life would become a
burden to him. Laugh at your own lit
tie mistakes, and do not feel grieved
if others laugh at them Laughing will
help you remember to avoid them an
other time quite as well as giving
away to serious regrets. Some peo-
pie are forever taking themselves to
task for some shortcoming. They are
the over-conscientious ones. II we act
foolishly on the impulse of moment,
it is no more fair to punish ourselves
than to punish child for a little mis-
take. 1t is right to look for the error
and acknowledge it. If one has
wronged another, he ought to confess
it and be more careful; then put 1t out
of mind. To grow morose and solemn
is to commit a second fault. No one
is doing any good to himself or others
by constantly eating the bread of peni-
tence. The only time to remember a
mistake is when one is tempted again
to the same fault. Daily and hourly
keeping up self-reproach, one is worn
out. This does not mean never to
listen to the warnings of conscience,
but to see the fault, start afresh and
keep cheerful and hopeful.

DENIES THEORY OF LOMBROSO
Equally High Authority Asserts That
There Is No Distinct Type
of Criminal.

DIR. Charles Goring is the latest
criminologist to combat the theories
of Lombroso and to assert that there
is no such thing as a criminal type.
Dr. Goring admits that there are some
persons who are naturally criminals,
but he denies that their criminality
shows itself by physical stigmata.
Seeing that criminality is purely ar
tificial distinction, it Is hard to under
stand why nature should aid in the
classification. Our social system has
seen fit to select a small number o.
the almost innumerable ways of be-
ing wicked and to label them as Grim
inal. The other ways are not labeled
as criminal, although they may actual
ly involve a much greater moral tur-
pitude. 1t is not the function of so
ciety to prevent people from being
wicked, but only to prevent them from
being wicked in such ways as are
particularly perjudicial to the rest of
the community. There was a time
when it was criminal to read the Bible
1t is still criminal to do some things
of which the moral sense may highly
approve We can hardly expect ma
ture to give her sanction to our arti.
ficial distinctions.

SHINE, Bird of Mystery,

Very little is really known about the
snips. That he is extremely interest
ing, both naturalists and sportsmen
agree; that he is mysterious, nobody
who has attempted to make the slight
est study of his ways and habits will
deny, for, like the wind, one cannot
tell whence he cometh, or whittier
he goeth," neither can one say why
he comes or why he goes, says writ
er in Country Life. On given bog
one may find plenty of snipe today,
and yet tomorrow hunt in vain for a
single bird, and this even when no at
mospheric change has occurred. The
more one studies this bird the more
one realizes how very little one really
knows about him. The snipe is
unique in his habit of drumming, or
bleating, as it is sometimes called
The means by which the sound is
produced is one of the most discussed
subjects in ornithology.

ENDS BACkACHE and
KIDNEY DISORDERS
croxone Helps LifeIess Organs
Regain Health, Strength
and Activity.

1t is useless, dangerous and unnec
essary to be tortured with the digging,
twisting pains Of backache or suffer
disagreeable kidney and bladder dis
orders when Croxone is guaranteed to
promptly and surely relieve all such
misery.
Croxone masters these troubles be-
cause it quickly reaches the cause Of
the disease. 1t soaks right into the
stopped-up, inactive kidneys, through
the membranes and Innings; cleans
out the little filtering glands; neutral
izes and dissolves the poisonous uric
acid and makes the kidneys filter and
sift from the blood the waste and poi
sonous matter that clog the system
and cause such troubles.
1t does not matter whether you have
but slight symptoms or chronic, ag-
gravated case. it is practically impos-
sible to take Croxone without results.
An original package of Croxone
costs but a trif1e, and all druggists are
authorized to return the purchase
price If you are not entirely satisfied
the very first time you use it.-Adv.

Had Another Guess.

A certain Texas high school recent
ly purchased an assortment Of statu-
ary. When the art specimens ar
rived the colored janitor was set to
opening the cases in which they were
shipped. First he encountered a re-
plica of the Famous Victory, which he
carefully stood upright, and then
looked carefully in the packing excel
sior for the missing parts. Next he
found bust of Shakespeare, which
he took out and held musingly. Just
then the principal came up.

statue, ''is dis hyuh de haid whut goes

THE GENESIS OF THE HoRRLE.I

Captain MacManus, master airiga'
tor, leaned idly on the pneumatic star
board rail of the great New York re-
ceiving float of the Five Continents
& Australia Aerial line and gazed
down at Manhattan Island, 5000 feet
below, as 1t was in the year 1862.
Down on the caissons of the F. c.
& A. ground terminal tiny electrical
depot-tender, all glass and wire, was
taking aboard her quota OF passen-
gers, bound for the float to catch the
1911 Express for Paris. The Express,
monster 900-footer, that flashed her
red hull across the Atlantic on the
10,000-foot level at the rate of $50
miles an hour, lay in her clips on the
float, impatient to be released and
tear herself away from contact with
things near-mundane. Tiny 300-foot
express packets from Washington,
Chicago, Pittsburg and other nearby
points were swarming to the float,
discharging their passengers and
mails for the big Express, taking their
release signals and scurrying back
whence they came.
1t was scene that the captain had
seen year after year, yet he never
tired of witnessing the silent swift
ness with which the thing was man
aged.
A tiny bell buzzed near him and No.

great steel arms and awaited the COM
ing of the boat that had signaled 1t.
Down below the tender rose up from
the terminal caissons, spiraled upward
In long curves, and one minute later
No. 10 Clip received it in it's arms.
Out of the tender came rushing

shoulders, and wore long skirts, with
room enough ia them to walk. When
he came back it was the year of these
hobble skirts and the women were
altogether different. The young ex-
plorer goes into his apartments in
the little hotel and something that
looks like this picture leaped up to
welcome him, and he steps back and
hollers: Gimme my gun. There's a
strange animal like a seal in the
room And it was only his wife. The
sad part of it was that he had to pay
the dressmaker next day."
But why did the women let Style
boss them so?" asked an apprentice
Would it punish them if they
wouldn't get thin or plump as it or
dered them?"
Would it! Indeed it would, my
lad; it would let them see other won.
en- who we're in style!"
But how did they ever happen to
hit onto anything like this hobble
skirt, captain"
We'll. you see, twas in the days
when the ladies were fighting for
equal rights with man. The men
wouldn't let them wear the trousers
as yet, so the dear women did the
next best thing. They couldn't get
the whole trousers, but they could
get one leg. They took and made it
into a skirt as you see in the pic
ture."
The young airmen gazed at the
strange picture in amazement. "Why
in the world did they think such
things made them pretty, captain p
asked one Fancy one of our women
today wearing anything that would
interfere with their stride!"
"The women of today are free,'
said Captain MacManus. "They have
thrown off the thrall of instinct. And
yet" he mused smilingly, "and yet
those old days were good days, after
all. Douse my signal rays! l don't
know but what they were as good as
the present era, so far as the women
are concerned. Yes, lads, in those

boys. I'VE read about them in his
tory books. But what is 1t OFF,"
The captain studied longer.
The figure on the photograph was
different from anything ever seen or
dreamed of in the year 1862. Appar-
emily it represented some creature
bearing a faint resemblance to the
women of the day. The physiognomy
was dainty and appealing to the eye,
but it was almost surrounded by a
great mass of material resembling
hair. To the waist the figure bore
some resemblance to the women Of

Robert Burns.

Robert Burns belongs in the very
front rank of the worlds great men.
AS song writer he stands along
with Goethe, Heine and Beranger, and
as a satirist he ranks we'll up with
Juvenal and Pascal. His "Coter's Sat-
urday Night" his Tam O. Shanter'
and his Holy Fair are simply mimi
table, as great, in their line, as the
most consummate masterpieces of the
worlds greatest writer's. Burns was
original in the best sense of that
word, and his songs, satires, epistles
and many of his more serious produc-
tions stand forth unique. and fresh.
and powerful as the tints of Titan
or the chiseling of Phidias.

HIS FIRST YEAR AT FARMING
IN SASKATCHEWAN
Win Premiums and Prizes in
Competition With the
World.

There are thousands of young men
filling positions in stores and offices,
and in professional occupations
throughout the United States, who ip
their earlier life, worked on the farm.
The allurements of city life were at
tractive, until they faced the stern
reality. These people would have
done better had they remained on the
farm. Many of them, convinced of
this, are now getting back to the
land" and in the experience, no bet
ter place offers nor better opportunity
afforded, than that existing in Western
Canada. Many of them have taken
advanta sc of it, and there are to be
found today, hundreds of such, farm
ing in the Provinces of Manitoba,
Saskatchewan and Alberta. The con-
ditions that surround farming opera
tions today are so much superior to
those in existence during their early
farming days, that there is an attrac-
ton about it. Improved machinery,
level and open plains, no rocks to
shun, no trees to cut down, but wide
stretches with mile-long burrows, ele-
vators to handle the grain, railways to
carry it to market, and bring almost
to their doors the things necessary to
operate. Splendid grazing areas, ex-
cellent opportunities for raising cattle.
These things are all SO different from
what they once were that there is rea
son to speak of the attractions. r. H.
Crossman of Kindersley, Saskatche-
wan, the man who won such splendid
prizes at the International Dry Farm
ing Congress held at Tulsa, Oklahoma
last fall, grew the prize grains during
his first year farming. Up to 1913 he
was an engineer and the only knowl-
edge he had of farming was that OBJ
tanned when he was boy. That was
very useful; in fact it was valuable
to him. He had not forgotten it.

he had can do well by taking up one
