 Fredericton, N. B.. May 6.-While harnessing the power of rivers cur rent is an old story this province may be the first community to make use of the energy generated by the ebb and flow of the tides of the oceans. A bill has been introduced in the pro- vincia legislature to provide for in- vestigation into the possibility of using the waters of the Tidal Bore on the Petticodiac River in this pro- vince for hydro-eectric energy.
 This tidal phenomenon is a result of the waters of the Bay of Fundy seeking an outlet after having grad ually flowed in the narrow inlet be- tween southern New Brunswick anc northern Nova Scotia. At high-tide the water courses suddenly up the Petticodiac river and attains tre. mendous momentum. forging ahead ir foaming wall.

KNUT'S GOLDEN ROAD

once upon a time there lived a
" princess whose father ruled over a
very wild and strange country, for the
people knew nothing of many things
of which we have use. They dressed
In fine cloth, but had no shoes. The
men had never learned to tan leather.
So all, even the royal family, went
about barefooted.
OF course, the stones hurt the ten
der feet of the princess, so a carpen-
ter made her clogs, or wooden shoes.
But these were so heavy she seldom
walked.
Out in the mountains about five
miles away was young Knut, a shep-
herd boy, who dried skins for rugs.
He dyed the wool all sorts of beau
tiful colors and sold them at the
castle.
Ones day he brought to the palace
a very large rug made from the skin
of a huge mountain sheep. 1t was

Out the princess sulked, grew thin and
unhappy, so at last he consented to
proclaim throughout the kingdom that
he would give any reward asked to the
one who would accomplish what the
princess desired.
Knut heard of the announcement
made by the king. AS he sat in his
hut and played the flute he thought
of the lovely princess whom he had
met. And he wished with all his
heart that he could earn the reward,
for what he would ask would be not
gold, but her hand.
Out in his backyard there was q
puddle of dark water which had
drained down from some wood shaw
ings. And into 1t had fallen some
week before a bit of sheepskin. and
there it had lain undisturbed. Knut
picked 1t up. 1t was smooth and not
at all like the fresh skin.
He patted and dried and smoothed
the skin, having first washed off the
woolly side with hot water and soap.
Then he rubbed the skin with a sweet
oil till it was soft and plant. Before
him in the damp sand he saw the
print of his foot.
Il will make a covering for the
princess foot Of this skin," he said
aloud. 81 will have the wool turned
inside, having first dyed 1t a golden
hue. That will keep her feet warm
and prevent rocks from hurting her.
Aud this outside skin will wear against
the ground and stones"
So, first dyeing the wool a lively
yellow, he wrought with his bone
needle g lovely pair of shoes. The
skin, which was now leather, was on
the outside. On the inside was the
clean wool, a beautiful golden tint.
The next day he went to the palace
and presented them to the princess.
put these on your feet" he said,
"then you can run about over stones
and dirt without being hurt. Your
road through life will be a golden one
every step you take you will tread on
golden softness."
The delighted princess ran to show
the king her present, and in a few
days the lad had orders to make leath-
err shoes for the king and court. Then
the whole nation got shoes. The
princess welded Knut, who had asked
for her hand, and at the feast she
wore her first golden shoes.

There is a millinery shop in New
York which guarantees its hats never
to go out of style. With every pur-
chase goes the understanding that in
five or ten years from now the bonnet
bought today will be just as attractive,
just as much admired and even more
In vogue.
1t is the Salvation Army Millinery
Shop" located at 100 West Fourteenth
Street, New York city, in which estab-
lishment every bonnet which enters
the tenement houses, rescue homes,
orphanages, nurseries or slum settle
ments first sees the light of day. And
the shop does a rushing business. Three
hundred bonnets each week are trim

country and started on their mission
of spreading cheer and hope to every

The Idea took such a hold of her
that she wept and asked the king to
proclaim a great reward to anyone
making such roads in his country. The
old king smiled, thinking such an m
possible request too absurd to notice.
