Presidents Scotch Forebears.

When people meet these days the
subject of war invariably crops up,
and when one or more Scotsmen are
IN the party, the men from the land of
the heather cannily swerve the subject
to President Wilson and throw their
chests out as they attribute all of his
best qualities to his Scotch anoes-
try.
They assert that the president Is re-
lated to several prominent Scotch fam
HES, being descended from Rev. Rob-
ert Woodrow, the well-known historian
Of the Church of Scotland, whose name
he bears. Another of the presidents
ancestors was Robert Williamson, a
prominent Glasgow citizen, through
whom he is distantly related to the
archbishop Of York.

different. Beatrice would not have
liked cold climate. but for visit it
was entirely different. And that was
the way each one felt about the part
of the land where the other lived.
"One morning Beatrice said to It'd
dy:
Lets cut some roses There were
so many roses and flowers that Tiddy
didn't know what to make of such
quantities of them.
GLOW will we ever find enough
vases to put them in?' she asked.
ooh said Beatrice, we'll only take
the ones with the great long stems for
the vases and leave the others on the
ground
Are you jokingP asked Ti1dy.
"'No, certainly not said Beatrice.
"'You mean you're going to leave
roses on the ground! Can't we give
them to some one?'
LIVERY one around here has all the
roses imaginable. 1t may seem strange
to have all the roses one can use and
give away and enjoy, but that's the
truth. And we really cut them off
and let them drop on the ground, be-
cause we try to make them grow with
longer stems next time
"Tiddy was never so surprised in
her life. 1t was like living in a land
Of roses. She had never visited Bea-
trice before in the rose season. How
wonderful it all was-roses and sun
shine and warmth and beautiful coun-
try.
And, too, when she had visited Bea-
trice before she was so very young she
hadn't noticed such things. She had
been only very wee child and had
thought of nothing but nice warm bot
ties of milk and rattles!
when night came and she had be-
come used to seeing roses, roses every
where-on the ground, in vases, on
the bushes-she saw an enormous
moon come up from behind a hill.
Did you ever, in your life, see
such a big, such a ridiculouSly big
moon? she asked Beatrice.
Beatrice laughed. We'll, suppose
I am so used to seeing such a big
moon that it doesn't surprise me-
'.Tiddy couldn't think Of anything
else after she had gone to bed but the
many, many roses and the great big
moon.

round and yellow at the end of her
bed And Il. tegar TO grow - bigger and
bigger until it covered up all the iron
rods at the foot.
"'Well, Miss Tiddy,' said the Moon
in a low and solemn voice, how do
you like this part of the world?'
81 like it, she said; fn fact, love
it, but 1t doesn't seem real
Now said the Moon. that is what
I don't understand. When things are
beautiful and wonderful and everyone
is happy folks will say, ut doesn't
seem real" And if things are going
wrong they think they are very real.
Lovely things and happy things are
just as real as the other kfnd-just as
real, Miss Tiddy.'

don't look real-though I suppose you
are

Sees Whale as Popular Food.

But the whale has overcome the pre-
judice against him, dating, no doubt,
from the day Jonah first told his story.
Admiral Peary is heart and soul for
the whale. He says: "There will be an
intense practical advantage to this
movement if we can ever get the
American people to substitute whale
meat for beef, mutton and pork. 1t
can be kept indefinitely in tin cans the
way they are now putting it up for the
market. There have long been such
canneries on the coast of Labrador,
and there used to be some on the New
foundland coast, but the Newfoundland
canneries have gone out of business,
being unable to compete with the
Labrador plants, which get the whales
at less cost"

You reckless men ana women who

authority to use a drug called free

are applied to any corn, the soreness
is relieved and soon the entire corn,
root and all, lifts out with the ing-
ers.
1t is sticky substance which dries
the moment it is applied and is said
to simply shrivel the corn without
infiaming or even irritating the sur
rounding tissue or skin. 1t is claim
ed that a quarter of an ounce will
cost very little at any of the drug

THE RED CROSS MAN
By AMELIA JOSEPHINE
Of the VigiIantes.

Broken with pain and WEAKNESS
And Slapped with vile disease,
Back to the land of ruined towns,
Of murdered and trees,
Through Switzerland from Germany
The trains of wreckage ram
And on the French frontier they found
A Red Cross Man.
And when to what had once been home
Those haggard eXies came,
Young wheat was green above the scars
Of steel and blood and flame
Round new built houses where once more
The work of life began.
And still they found to welcome them
A Red Cross Man.
There the husband clasped again
The wife he mourned dead
The child was its mothers breast,
The old were comforted.
What wonder if they hope to find
The Angel of Gods Plan
Who meets them at the heavenly gate
A Red Cross Man!
