"A RAINMAKER

If yoB want to make easy money learn how to make it rain. The Medi- cine Hat (Alta) Agricultural Associa- tion has paid Rainmaker Charles Nj. Hatfield $s,000 for three months work which in the days Of Cotton Mather might have resulted in his trial for witchcraft.
 Under his contract, Hatfield was to be paid Sl,000 an inche up to four inches for all rain that feil within a radius Of 100 miles of Medicine Hat. All over four inches was to be free. Between May ] when Hatfield began to brew his entertainments and Aug. 1 when the long drawn out miracle end ed.four and a half inches fell. So the rainmaker received maximum pay.
 Many doubting Thomases do not credit Hatfield with responsibility for the rain. These skeptics pont out that the rain did not come when it was needed most. They declare too that when it did come. rains were general throughout the Canadian West. When it poured in the Medicine Hat dis triet, it was also rainng hard n the mixed farming regions along the Cana = dian National Railways in Manitoba askateheWan and Alberta. When the precipitation was heaviest in Southern Alberla, it was also heaviest iii North ern Manitoba.
 However the majority of people here abouts give Hatfield full credit. He professes to create from a mixture oi chemicals in an elevated tank vapors that rising to the sky. eondense thE moisture of clouds that otherwise would sail over without distilling g drop upon the thirsty earth. The az ricultural association plans to hire tht wizard again next year.

Sunday Morning Talk
CHRIsTIAN LIVING

It has been objected to Christianity that it requires of the believer a super- human type of living The objection is well taken-it does. No mere moral lty, however high. no most scrupulous observance of the outward things of the religious life as Bible reading, prayer, church going, almsgiving will fill out the demand of the Christian ethic It is a heavenly standard for earthly liv- ing. The whole environment is hostile to that standard Satan and his hosts are determined the believer shall not realize it in his own experience nay. the believers own flesh rebels against it.
 Here comes the peril The believer will be tempted to say, This is an ideal merely. It helps just as the moon helps l if I make 1t my target, for. while shall not strike the moon, 1 shall shoot 1 higher than I should if I made the barn
 roof my target.

T can do al l things through Christ, my strength. And the one broad distinction between Christian and Christian is that some l are seeking by self effort to attain t the standard and of right Christian liv ing, and that others, in utter self dis 1 trust, are yielding themselves to tn great supernatural enabements which are the birthright of every believer

CHILD TRAINING AT HOME
CONTROLLING CHILDREN
By Margaret Wright North

The adage that a man Is not fit to command others until he can command himself is never more trpe than in the training of children A mother who' has acquired self control has more than half won the struggle of controlling her children.
 In the course of a conversation the other day, a mother remarked to me, q don't see why Charles has to pick just the time when 1 am busiest to be the most exasperating." What 8 pie ture that gave me of the mother!
 I could see her in the afternoon sit ting quietly with her mending basket answering Charles, interminagle ques- tions with tact and patience. entering Into his pretends. and making the child feel that his mother was a req pal and playmate
 Then I can see her a little while later bustlihg about the kitchen get ting supper. Charles still asking ques- tions After a few half hearted re- plies, mother turns on Charles with an impatient, Charles, if you don ! stop asking me questions I'll send yot 1 to bed, you drive me wild" There is a moment of silence and then another question. What did | tell you? Now
 not another wetd" Another moment ant then hesitant, Say, mother?" "Charle'

road to the effect that it has adopted a new t1ashlight signal for grade cross nngs not only because it is reliable and visible but because it is entirely prac- tical
 Warnings of one kind or another have existed at most of the worst crossings for long time and yet it is fully un- derstood that there are those users of grade crossings who pay little or no attention to signals signs, gates or flag men if it can be avoided. It is because of such disregard for danger and the willingness to take chances that a large number of the crossing accidents occur The new signals which the road has adopted are such as to direct added at tention to the on-coming train and to give protection to those who are unwili- ing to be classed as reckless. From the description it should be sufficient to at tract for considerable distance so that the fast travellers will have plenty of time to slow down and stop without trying to bump the locomotive off the rails
 Whatever can be furnished in the way of added grade crossing protection must be heartily welcomed. It indicates disposition on the part of the railroad to meet it's responsibilities and there cannot fail to be appreciated the fact that if there was exercised due regard for railroad crossing by the highway users there would be far less accidents and fatalities at such places. Elimina- ton of course is desirable but that lies a long time ahead and in the meantime 1t behooves crossing users to respect signs and signals erected for their pro- lection.

READ YOUR CHARACTER By Disby Phillips,

Pointed Noses


 Pointed noses may look as though they were meant 10 be stuck into ether peoples business, bur in reality, they in dicate no such tendency on the part of their owners, unless it a characteristic of the ordinary quick, clear mind to con cern itself with the affairs of others
 The long pointed nose is essentially an indication of mentality, and comparison of statistics gathered in the study of character indications shows not only tht it Is found almost exclusively in persons who actually give evidences of unusual mental ability. but that it is found most often in persons who have the mental type Of head that is to say, the head which is hroadest above the eyes and tapers down to s<1n which is narrow and pointed rather than square. In combination with such a head you'll l find that the long nose is seldom accom- | panied by any excess st physical ability or energy. But they have been quick l penetrating and accurately functiohing minds. Environment may not have made such things familiar 10 them. but they are naturally appreciative of cui- i ture. refinement and the artistic and though they are not overly energetic oi vital physically, the luxuries they seel are those of the mind rather than the body.
