William j. Bryan was one of the
pacilists who talked about raising a
volunteer army Of a million men over
night. The announcement of Secretary
Baker that all men enlisting in the
regular army or the national guard in
the present emergency will be kept in
the service for the period of the war
only can mean nothing more nor less
than Il thorough test OF the volunteer
system. That this plan will prove in
adequate is the general belief of army
men. Secretary Baker is at some pains
to point out that this announced ac-
tion is by no means u compromise plan,
impelled by opposition to the draft
feature of the administration military
bill. From the compromise point of
view, no doubt, this version is suffi-
Gently correct; but, if the action is not
intended as Il sop to the opponents OF
the draft system, it obviously is lie
signed to subject the volunteer system
to the acid test and adduce convincing
evidence to its proponents of the fall
lacy of their position. The test will
tell the story.

'Oh, yes" said the Fairy.

You are queer. But / like queer
things-at least some queer things and
you are one of them. 1t would be very
dull indeed if everything were just the
same. We need queer creatures to
make things interesting"
'Well, I'm glad of that" said the
Toucan Bird.
and are you going to tell me about
yourself?' asked the Fairy.
'What shall | tell you-why l am
queer? l can't very well tell you that
because to my mind I'm not queer.
/ Now you are queer to me because you
are so different
! I'VE both have wings" said the
Fairy, for she was little afraid that
the toucan bird might be hurt because
/ she had called him queer.
'Our wings are very different,
though" said the Toucan Bird. And
we speak differently. It's strange that
/ can understand you. l can't under
stand children"
THAT'S because I'm fairy. We can
always be understood. We love birds
and animals and know all their Ian
guages,'
How nice?" said the Toucan Bird.
"But you're not telling me why you
are queer-even though you are sc
nice"

Toucan Bird. I'm very glad I'm nice
I'm still more glad that you like me

The Trained Nurse
Howard LRdnn


The trained nurse is a ministering
angel who is hired to let other people
sleep.
There are two people who have
proven that the world would be better
off if sleep had never been invented.
One of them is Thos \. Edison and the
other is the bright-eycd trained nurse,
who can sit up all night for a week
and look as fresh as n plate Of home
grown lettuce. Mr. Edison has not
used any sleep to speak of in his bust
ness for years, and his close friends
and associates say that when ne feels
any coming his way he holds his head
under the cold water faucet until the
attack passes.
When nervous, hi2h-strung bust
ness man comes down with an liberated
tooth which hangs on like one-armed
man at a club dance he refuses TO al
low any sleep to enter the house, thus
making il necessary to engage a trained
nurse who is accustomed to sit bolt up.

STEAM TRACTORS ON FARMS.

That there are - gasoline and kero
scuc tractors in use ON Vermont FARMS
is % point that will no doubt occasion
surprise to many persons, but it Is a
part Of the information brought ont in
"a government census recently con
eladcd 10y the federal office Of farm
management, working in cooperation
with the federal bureau of crop csti-
mates. 1t was found that, all told
moro than $4,000 tractors are III use
ON farms in the United States, not in
Guiding steam-driven machines, or
those out Of commission or purchased
but not delivered. In other New Eng
land states the number of tractors
ranges from 80 in Rhode Island to 81
in Massachusetts.
In New York their use is much more
extensive, the inquiries revealing Tic
less than 1910 in use in that state
while Ohio has 1905.
II is i'm the large states of the West
and Southwest that the tractor has
more especially come to be a usefu
and important agricultural factor. II
Iinois reports 3.202, Iowa 2,223, Kan
sas 2,2s7, North Dakota 2,137, Tcxa
2,235, and so on. Georgia has 543 il
use, and Alabama &13. Here in Ney
England our steep hillsides and stony
uneven surfaces, aud also the com
lParatively small areas into which on
farms are cut, cause the tractor to b
much less in demand. That severa
hundred of them are in use in this rc
sion, despite these disadvantages, is
sign that New England farmers ar
less conservative than they are som,
times rated. .....
