Men Allude to Them as Weaker Ves- sels, . a - tim : Women have more strength in their looks than we have in our Inws ang more power by their tears thin we bave by our arguments. Women are quick to recognize genius and to listen when wisdom speaks. They may clint ter in the prefence of fools, bot Know and appreciate the value of earnest, sensible men. It is assumed that the Almighty made man as his masterpiece, and, conceited being that he is, man accept: ed this statement as a picce of truth, That the earth and all it contains were made for his special benefit, that woman was created solely for bis cou fort, that the sun was nade to give bith light by day and the moon to en able him to find bis way home at night, that the heavens were hung with a re- splendent curtain of stars and the plan ots sent whirling through space in a majestic. dance about the god of day simply to afford him matter for won- der and amusement--ideas of this sort evince an egotism that cas only be ac credited to man. Masterpieces indeed! Why, God made wan aad, finding that he couly not take care of himself, made vo- man to care of him, and she is dis- charging her heaven ordained duty in an artistic and capable manuoer. Are Women the Weaker Vessels? Men are fond of alluding to womec as "the weaker vessels," and Pope calls man the "great lord of things." Men rule with a rod of iron the creatures of the earth, the sea and the air. 'hey hurl defiance in the face of kings and presidents, They tread the ocean's foam beneath their feet. they harness the imperial thunderbolts to the jaunt ing electric car and even succeed in mounting the storm and firing upon the wind, but the bravest of them tremble and lie like Cretans when eal) ed upon by their wives tv explain some of their extravagant purchases, aud fur this reason many mien delegate their wives as the official "family shioppers™ and thereby shift the respousibility to them. More Good Sense Than Men. Women have more good sense than men. 'They, have fewer pretensions. are less imblicated in theories and judge of values more from their im mediate and involuntary impressions on the mind and therefore more traly and naturally. It is said "men have sight, woiwnen insight." For these and many more reasons women mike vet ter shoppers than men Women regulate their purchases ai. gether by the amount they have tg spend. meén by the amount of credit they can get. Women like to put their money where it will do the most grod, men where it will make the grentest show. Men are usually "broke," wo men very seldom: All of which goes to strowRidat women are the 'stronger vessels" after all. Women Are Prone to Bargains, Woman's weakness as a purchaser lies in her pronounced susceptibility to bargains. No man ever followed freedom's flag for patriotism with balf the enthusiasm that woman will trail the red, white and blue that con stitute the banner of the bargain coun: ter. And therein les her temptation. This trait of woman's nature is recognized by the mail order and retall catalogue houses to the extent that nearly all of thelr misleading circulars and pictorial eatalogues are addressed to the women. And the women, trie to their natures, respond with many orders. Their Spirit of Loyalty. Bnt it women are prone to bargains they are also possessed with the sense and spirit of Joyaity to their own town and community when once they come to.a full redlization of the injury they are working both to themselves ana their home merchants by sending thelr money away to some lurge corpora. tion in a big city for goods thal they cab buy as cheaply and of much better grade at home and without the incon venience necessitated by long delays when ordering from ont of town ner chants. {0 5 The Slogan of Woman.

' In its way, too, the ghost is quife a satisfactory one, and though the gendarmes who have inquired into the affair suspect a practical joker, the village gossips strongly maintain that the spook is a real one. There is even a whisper that as the owner uf the house where the manifesta- tions occur is not a regular attend- ant at mass, the cure of the place has summoned a spirit to bring him to a proper sense of his responsibilities: Others, however, talk with bated breath. of the devil amd Beelzebub and other of the fords of darkness. What actually has been happen ing, however, is that the worthy M. Prousteau, a local land surveyof, and his fam'ly, who live in a little house near the Blois road, have been hav- ing their rest disturbed in the early morning by. the strangest . noises. The walls of their dwelling have sud- denly responded with thunderous blows, the partitions dividing room from room have vibrated with con- tinuous knockings, and ever and anon there has been a tfemendous notte, like the iotling of thunder. which has been heard two hundred' yards away. The windows have rat- tled in their frames, and the whole house has been shaken as if by a little earthquake. Not merely eantent with this, the spirit--be it playful or avenging--- has ventured on a host. of similar tricks. It has, for instance, sent the curtains of the beds and in the case. ments sailing np to the ceiling as it they were struck by a high gale, when there was never a breath of wind to stir the bare branches of the trees outdoors, much less within, It has imitated the sound of wood-chop- ping, at three o'clock in the morn- ing, to perfection, and other items on the programme of earthly ventrilo- quists. Anyhow, the police have investi- gated the matter; they have explor: ed the neighboring houses, but they ate baffled and can give no explana- tion; and down in the village they etill prattle of black magic, and the maire has had to forbid people as- senubling in the roadway before the "keunted" house, because people kave pouréd in from the country round, and spent a good part of the dar and night staring speculatively and uselessly at the windows of M Prousteau's residence. .

This will begin within thirty days, atout the time the influx of British immigrants is un yay ip this part of the country. He added: "The novelty of the plan lies in the fact that our principals all men of affairs in England, will endeavor to attract particularly © those who have had no previous experience "in farming. This may be called a 'for- ward land' movement, or, it may be designated by any other name that expresses 'the idea, "If the farm is the success we be- lieve it will be, the backers of the movement will purchase larger tracts in the KinseHa district and other parts of central Alberta. The plan ig to sell the land at absolute cost to only those who have proved to yur satisfaction that they are quali- fied to make more than a living from the soil."

Cure Pneumonia -- Many Cases Have Been Cured New York, March 24.----Ninety of 100 cases of. pneumonia, reported here to-day, 'have been cured by a new gerum) developed at the Rocke- feller institute, the details of which will be announced to the medical world. The serum is made frour the blood of horses inte which pneumococci germs have been injected. It is in- sorted in the veins of the patient and relieves pneumonia by bringing a cri- sis of the disease in from twelve to eighteen hours. Pneumonia's frequent fatal ter- wination, it is declared, is often caused by the fact that exhaustion is caused through the crisis being de- layed for from /three to seven days.

It is 3 most difficult matter to fix fact that milk vacies greatly both in quality and in quantity. even from day to day, and between morning's and evening's milkings. When first cows are turned out to graze the milk will show a low per- centage of fat, or, again, if the weather becomes ver, hot or very cold, down gc .s the fat percentage in the milk. But evén when the ani- mals are kept under normal condi- ions and there is no apparent cause, the composition of milk yielded by individual animals varies consider- ably. Some of the chief factors in- duencing the quality and quantity of milk are given below: 1. Firstly, breed greatly influences the quality of milk, as cows like the Jbannel Islanders give very rich nilk, and as it is an inherent quali- fication which they possess, it is but little affected by foods. 2. Next comes individuality. Some cows naturally give very rich milk, whilst others give milk of poor qual- ity. As this is the case, every farm- ar or dairyman should systematically test the milk of each cow, and thus discover the characteristics of each animal; he is then easily able to weed out from the herd those which vield milk 'below the standard or of poor quality. LL 3. Age also has some influence, as old cows give milk of more watery character than younger ones, the ac- tivity of the gland cells not being so good. 4. Again, the health of the ani- mal is important, as cows sufféring from. advanced tuberculosis would give milk containing a very low fat percentage. 5. Another factor which is import- ant is the period of lactation, as at the commencement a large quality of milk is yielded, but -of rather poor quality, but towards the end the per- rentage of fat or total solids greatly increases. interval between the milkings. It is not always couvenient to milk reg- place shortly after the previous one, the percentage of fat will be high and the quality of milk yielded low. 7. Thergs also the first and last drawn mj/ik to le considered. First- dren milk is always poor in fat, as, owing to distention, there is an ever- increasing pressure toward the sides of the milk-secreting glands, which hinders the passage of the solids of milk. into the reservoirs, but as the pressure is removed on milking these solids are able to pass down. The first-drawn milk may contain from 1 to 2 per cent. fat, whilst the last- drawn would contain about 10 per cent. fat: 8. Lastly comes the food. | E.g., it a cow has been. fed on poorish diet, which is suddenly changed to a rich one, this 'acts as a_ stimulus to the milk-secreting glands, and richer milk is produced. However, this is cow will give milk of her usual qual- ity on a good ration, even though the very rich diet may be kept up. 1. Breeds. Some breeds vield a larger quantity of milk than others-- @.g., the Dutch or Holstein; but usu- ally where a large quantity of milk is produced the fat percentage is not very high. 2. Individuality. Some cows nat- urally yield a large quantity of milk. . Lactation period. ning of the lactation or milking per- jod a large quantity of milk is given, which decreases gradually after a flush period, lasting often for four months. i. Milking hofirs.

If cows are fed on such vod as decortioated cotton cake, bean and pea meal, or any food which con- !tains 'a "high percentage of albumen oids, they will yield a large quan- tity of milk, as the gpithelial cells of the udder. from a deeonzposition of which milk is produced, are large- ly composed af albumen, which also fnvord a rapid building up and break- ing down of these cells. Agajn, if joows ure fed on watery foods, such (ns brewers' grokus, a large quantity of milk wikl be produced, but of a {watery character.
