Plants That Prepare for War.

Many plants protect themselves from
their enemies by the use of spikes or
prickles. and venom, just us certain
animals do. OF those using the first
named device to make themselves
"armed to the teeth" the bramble. the
gorse, and the holly are familiar in
stances. q Among those which protect
themselves with venom as reptiles do
are the deadly nightshade, OF belladon-
ma, and the nux vomica. Less de-
structively inclined are these plants
which are simply protected by their
disagreeable taste. The common but
tercup, which is IL of these, is gener-
ally stunned by horses and cattle. a
plant which, like the skunk, is pro-
tected by a dlsagreeable smell, is the
6gworm. Only that hardy and inscnsi-
tive animal, the goat, will touch it.

BEING Just to Children.

II you are to be just-it is n Of
the first principles in dealing with chill
dren-you must look beyond the facts.
But that is just what an imitation of
judicial procedure is calculated to pre-
vent. A sensible master or mistress,
Ia competent father or mother, is not
content to discover that a child has
transgressed before pronouncing SEN
tence. It is necessary to discover why
and to make allowances for character
and temper, for circumstances and
health and a thousand other things.

ANcTUAR

Here on the hearth Is cheering blaze;
Here Is the coaXing %inglenook,
With pipe, mayhap, incense to raise
Above the dream inspiring book.
So shut the door when night is come;
Forget the world that lies without
The world Of problems wearisome,
or worries, Of defeat and doubt.
Bar out the world, learn to forget
The echo of it's rasping calls;
Let neither care, nor fear, nor fret,
Find footspace once within your
walls,
Forget the babel of the street;
Forget the roughness of the way
For here are blossoms fair and sweet,
Outside are shadows dull and gray.
Be this your sanctuary. then,
What of tomorrow? 1t may wait,
For here is hearth and home again,
And here contentment holds its state
These four walls shield us round
about
What greater peace is there to win
Now all the darkness is shut out
And all the light and love locked in

comes fairly started on his new work.

that the new department was created,
and MI. Johnson placed at its head.

unlimited opportunities for advance
ment, as Mr.. johnson will be in charge
of the advertising of all the branch
houses Of the company. He will have
his headquarters in this city, however.
MI. johnson took the secretaryship
OF the Marshalltown Club on Feb. 10,
1915, and during that time the club has
prospered and made rapid steps in adj
vancement both Of itself and the city
at large. Jan. ! Of next year will see
the Organization out OF debt for the
first time in four years. Reviews OF
the activities Of the club during the
