No doubt the little girl is unutte ta- bly lonely, and is grieying secretly over the loss of home and mother. An aunt may be very dear to her, but nc living being can fill the void and loss she has sustained. SchooI would be best for her, but there is little use in attempting to force a girl of Is along that line. I am sure the dear child would welcome the proposition of en- ploynent. Why not try to get her in where you are? You certainly have influence with and the respect of your employers: they would be well pleased to help you solve the situation. am sure.
 No doubt your niece reads the sto- ries for the reason they are/ the only books available. Place a few good books on other subjects. carelessly within her reach and she will undoubt- edly read them. She may have girl friends who part with her admission fee for thei pleasure of her company. It is best not to make too much of stern lecture on this point. not know ing your ground exactly, or how much or how little there may be to it. Elm ployme1lt for her under your watch care is the best plan and will save the day-and the girl. Take her out to the movies in the evening at least once a week It will do you both good. Let her feel that you enjoy her pleasures. toO.

MARY sIAGDALEN.

The first Of the woman saints of the Christian calendar. in point of tirne, was St. Mary NIagdaleT1, "a wo- man who was a, sinner whose fes- tiva1 is observed by Catholics today. To her first, after his mother, Jesus gave the certainty of his resurrec- tion and to her first he made him. self known. Mary AIagdalen has always been one of the most popular of the saints among Roman Catholi cs. Many legends are connected with her name, but the one generally accepted is that after the crucidxfon of J Jesus. she. in company with the Virgin and Mary Saieme, to escape pcrseeution, set sail on the Mediterranean in a leaky boat, and after miraculous de1iVerance. landed in the south of Gaul. Mary Magdalen then took re- fuge in Provence. The cave in which she is said to have lived for thirty years is still to be seeas as is the chapel on the mountain top where according to the legend, s1e was caught up daily, like St. Paul to wis ions and revelations Of the Lord.'' When her end approached. it is said she was borne to a spet-stilI marked by a sacred ar''-where the holy Bishop Maxirain> awaited her, and thus. in the odor of sanctity, the once wicked woman closed her earthly. pilgrimage.

THE HARD LABoR
OF FARMING

As one travels about the country hard and exhausting work. He looks at the perspiring workers in the corn field, and thanks goodness that he is growing soft and lazy in some indoor job. He pities the toilsome farmer. reputed to rise at or 5 o'clock and work until dark. and condemned to tasks that involve much physical ef~ fort.
 Theoretically the modern farmer may be supposed to put the more la- borious tasks on hired help. But help is scorce, and to save crops in times of exigency he must frequently take hold and work with 44is own hands, Only thus can he spur on tagging em- p1oyes.
 In our modern culture we lave all become too afraid of hard work Many a man wearing his life out in the bad air of an office, who would greatly benefit his health by going into farmin g.EI aA1k6 hefIw6uld make an addition to the depleted food sup ply of the country.
 But digging in the dirt, pitching hay, hoeing corn would make his back ache. He has probably tried it some summer in a back yard garden. He found himself exhausted by an hours work with the spade. A great many boys also are physically indo- lent. No matter how hard they may play ball, any active muscular exer- ton at regular tasks seems intoler- able No doubt this is one Of the great reasons wyh boys used to rush to the big cities.
 The fact that anyone is physically wearied by brief muscular activity does not prove. that he could not do active work. It takes some time to develop muscle. But any person with a sound constitution ought to be able in a year or two to perform the far mer's ordinary tasks with energy and buoyant feeling. The hours of la bor may be long in summer. But the rush of overworIz is no gzeazgz are several months in which a far than in other professions. And there zner has larger control over his time than ay one else.

PREACHERS PENSION FUND OF $1O,O00,0O0
 ASKED BY CHURCH

San Francisco, July 21-This was Church Pension Congress day at the tExpositior1 The meeting was held under the auspices of the Board of Conference Claimants of the Metho- list Episcopal Church.
 Pensions for retired ministers and adequate care of the widows and de- pendent orphans of deceased preach CTS were discussed by representative leaders of the various churches. Fifty million dollars for retired preachers is the slogan of the churches. The Methodist. Presbyterian and Episcopal Churches will attempt to raise ten million dollars each, and the Baptist, Disciples, Congregational and the other large denominations also are engaged in raising pension funds.
 Rev. John T. Bradner Smith, Chi cago, said:
 Statistics reveal that there is more of the spirit of Christ and more prac- tical Christianity in the business world than in t. Christian Church. The Church has long neglected not only the worn-out preachers, but the widows and dependent orphans of de- ceased preachers
 Chaplain E. c. Clemens, Third Regiment, M. N. G.. Minneapolis, Minn., said:
 They are worthy of a, 'cornforta- ble support They plowed the fur row. sowed the seed and the Church is reaping today the harvest. Par sonages, churches, hospitals. colleges are the results of their 1abors. Mater iaI riches have been added to the Church but best of all spiritual riches have been added. Their greatest work was in leading men and women and children to Christ. Because they have led people to Christ, shep- herded the living comforted the mourning, buried the dead, helped the needy. they are worthy of a comfort able support 9
 Rev. J. w. Van Cleve. D. D., De- eatur, Ill., vice president Board of Conference Claimants Of the Metf1o- dist Episcopal Church, said:
 The support of the minister must be removed from the market basis to the basis of military service, in which the ideas of loyalty and sacrt- fee are more conspicuous than those of employment and wages. The min isterl should haveaa position of sapar- ateness and honor like that of an of fcer in the regular army"

Breast milk is the best milk for the summer.
 Breast-fed babies seldom have se- were diarrhea
 If they vorr1it or have acute indiges- ton it is usually because they are fed too much or too often, or because the mother is So sick or tired out that her milk is poor.
 In very hot weather the baby should nurse less often.
 Gfve>him the breast only every four hours. but give cooled boiled water free between the musings.
 The BottIe-R~d Babies.
 They are much more likely to get diarrhea.
 If they have dfarrhea it is much more often severe.
 The milk must be clean and be kept Reold.
 It should be boiled or pasteurized. should be boiled daay and kept very clean.
 In very hot weather the baby needs less fodd but more to drink. His milk should there17re be diluted with boiled water and cooled boiled water given freely between feelings.
 Summer Diarhea.
 It is easier to prevent diarrhea than to cure it.
 The important means of preventing severe diarrhea are:
 1. Boil all milk in summer.
 2. Dilute the baby's food in very hot spells.
 3. Stop the food at once if an acute diarrhea begins.
 If the movements become loose and only two or three a day, do not neglect it because the baby happens to be teething; it may mean the beginning of serious illness Dilute the food with an equal amount of boiled water and give less than the usual amount at feed ing.
 If the movements are more frequent and there is vomiting or fever. stop all food at once and give only boiled water, and call a doctor.
 After twelve hours without food barley water, made one tab1espoo oonful to one pint. may be. given.
 Proper treatment at the beginning of a diarrhea1 attack is worth more than many days treatment later.
 General Care.
 The clothing in hot weather should be light and on very hot days only the shirt. band and napkin worn.
 Bathe the baby morning and even ing and on hot days also in the mid dle of the day,
 Keep the skin clean and well pow Napkins when soiled should be pIac- ed at once in water and washed as soo1l as possible
 The baby needs fresh air quite as much as fresh food.
 Keep him out of doors es much as possible
 Avoid the sun on hot days
 in very hot weather take him out early in the morning and sn 5Iss fate afternoon and early evening. k It is often cooler in the house. with
 -ters closed in the middle of the day.
 Ike the baby to the park. to the 3each and to the country whenever you can.
 Avoid Infection. Keep the room free from seiIed clothes and rubbish. Do not let the baby play with cats CT dogs. Cats and dogs carry dis ease to babies.
 Do not let the baby crawl around on a dirty floor or dusty carpet. Place him on a clean sheet or blanket.
 Keep playthings and pacifiers out of his mouth. Flies carry disease to babies Screen the baoy's room. Keep flies away from the baby and his food at all times. Cover the crib or carriage with netting to keep out the flies and mos qlitoes.
