The two young Prairie-dog living on the edge of Prairie-dog Town had often seen the work of neigh- bors, the Pocket Gophérs, In fact, every morning when they went over in the grass for their break- fast they saw little mounds of newly dug earth where the Gopher folk had been at work the night before, but the one Popup had seen Digger the Badger dig out of his burrow was the only one they ever had seen, and this one was at too great a distance to give much idea what he looked like. "Those fellows must hate sun- light," said Popup to Peekaboo. "It is all very well to have a house in the ground, especially at night, but how any one can want to stay un- derground all the time is something I cannot understand at all." "And how any one can want to be out in the sun when they could just as well be out at night, is some- thing that I cannot understand at all," said a rather unpleasant voice. The Prairie-dogs turned quickly. A head had just been poked out of the middle of a small mound of earth close to which they were feed- ing. "I don't believe I know who you are," said Popup politely. "I'm Grubby Gopher, if you want to know," replied the other, and came wholly out. "It is a cloudy day or I wouldn't more than poke my head out. I don't like the sun. It hurts my eyes. My cyes are not strong." "I shouldn't think they would be if you keep in darkness all the time," spoke up Peekaboo. "Don't you ever come out and run about?" "Sometimes at night," replied Grubby. "We Gophers move about a lot then, but we never see any of you Prairie-dogs out then." "Certainly not!" exclaimed Popup. "Certainly not! Night is the time for honest folk to be at home and in bed." "Do you mean to hint that we Gophers are not honest ?" demanded Grubby, moving a step or two to- ward Popup. "No," Oh, no infleed," replied Popup hastily, for the long front teeth of Grubby were not at all pleasant to see. "I didn't mean any- thing of the kind." "I'm glad to hear it," said Grub- by. "I'm glad to hear it. Why any one should get the idea that only dishonest people are out and about at night 1 don't understand. A lot of sensible people prefer night to day. I do myself when it comes to going out. Otherwise it makes little difference to me whether it be night or day. I work when I feel like working, eat when I am hungry and sleep when I feel sleepy. That is the way to live. That is what I call independence." "Excuse me if I seem a bit curi- ous, but are those pockets. in your cheeks?" inquired Peckaboo some- what timidly. "Certainly," couldn't get along pockets. No, sir, 1 along without those. I am sorry for those who have no pockets." He looked at the two young Prairie- dogs with something of an éxpres- sion of pity. . "I suppose," ventured Popup, "that you bring the earth out of your tun- nels in those pockets." "Never suppose things," snapped Grubby, rather sharply, " I do no- thing of the kind, Why should you Rheumatism? Quick relief from rheumatio pains without harm: replied Grubby.

Dr. H. Crichton-Miller, the Harley street nerve specialist, addressing a conference on mental health at the Central Hall, West- minster, recently, said that the phase of civilization we had reached had uncovered a large amount of marital discord. This had existed previously, but, owing to pressure of religious au- thority and public opinion, had Been carefully kept secret. "When the parental ideal has waned," he continued, "the mere mating aspect of marriage has been inadequate to take its place, and the stability of the marriage bond has suffered in consequence. Thus we see that in the important sphere of marital relations the inexorable demands of civilization are again responsible for much discerd, "The small family is the product of economic pressure and at the same time the cause of diminished harmony and stability in marriage. Clergyman's Right To Keep Secret Upheld St. Paul, Minn., July 4.--The right of a clergyman to refuse to divulge information given him in confidence, was upheld by the Minnesota State Supreme Court. The high court reversed the conviction of the Rev. Emil Swen- son, Lutheran pastor of Minnea- polis, on a charge of contempt of court. Mr. Swenson was found guilty of contempt in Hennepin County district court by Judge Paul W. Guilford, for declining to divulge a conversation between a parishioner and the minister con_ cerning a divorce case. Mr. Swenson was sentenced to pay a fine of $100 or spend 30 days in jail. Backed by the Min- neapolis Ministers' Federation, he appealed to the State Supreme Court, I SURGE IN USES OF ELECTRIGS Speaker Tells of Expansion Going on in U.S. The development of a "tre- mendous surge" in the use of el- eciricity for domestic purposes in the next few years was the pre- diction made by M. C. Ripley, an electrical engineer from Shenec- tady, New York, in the course of an address last week in Montreal. He was the guest of Jenks, Gwynne & Co., and Calvin Bull- ock, New York, and made his re- marks at a luncheon at which a number of well known financial people were present. The statistics employed by Mr. Ripley to support of his conten- tions referred to the situation in the United States. One of the most promising sources of new markets for power was in connection with the rail- ways: at the present time 130,- 000,000 h.p. was used hy steam locomotives over 250,000 miles of track. Another statement that illus- trated new consuming markets for power was the case of an ex- penditure of $30,000 on an elec- tric cooker. It so happened that thig cooker would use worth of electricity in a single year, the exact amount pepresent- ed by the cost of the apparatus itself. So, he argued, every elec- tric appliance for factories or households that was sold called for an increased consumption of power, Mr. Ripley suggested that the growth in the use of power as in the purchase of various instru- ments such as radios, eléctric re- frigerators and other 'appliances that consume power, had been and would be of geometric ra- ther than an "arithmetic" pro- gression. That is, growth will be represented year by year or period by period, not by 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, etc., but by 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, $30,000 etc. For instance it hav taken 23 years to get the first 1,000,000 users of telephones in the Unit- od States, where now 1,000,000 new users are added in a period of 18 months. It took 22 years to secure the first 1,000,000 electric consumers in the U.S.; on an average ncw there is 1,000,000 heing added every year. Similarly with auto- mobiles, So with electrical re- frigerators. In some instances more sales were being made in a single quarter this year than in all last year. Sometimes a gingle month produced as many sales as 12 months previous. In 7 years there had been 17,000,000 radios gold; at the end of 7 years there were 100 times the number of electric refrigerators sold than there were the first year. One-third the goods now be- ing manufactured are an entirely new product of the past 50 years The use of electricity in homes showed an {increase of thirteen per cent, in 1930. There was an increase of 1,000,000 more h.p. this last year in air conditioning algne., There are today 6,000,000 houses in the U.S. that are not wired for electricity, and 6,000,- 000 farms not connected wich power lines. There are 29,000,- 000 out of 30,000,000 homes with no oil burners, no ironing ma- chines, no electrical stoves and 27,000,000 out of 30,000,000 without electric refrigerators; 23.000,000 without washing ma- chines; 15,000,000 without a ra- dio set; 21,000,000 without a vacuum cleaner; 11,000,000 with- out an electric ironer, All this showed the enormous possibilities lying before the power industry. It was pointed out that Can- adian companies stand to benefit by the increasing sales of house- lold electric appliances taking place throughout Canada not only from the sale of these articles hut the increased power which will be used as they are put into opera- tien. -- Anxious Sufferer -- "Doctor, how soon do you think I'll be well enough to eat the things that don't agree with me?" mE | Forest Fire Dec in Quebec Very Small Quebec, July 4.--Forest fires to the number of 244 have occurred in the Province of Quebec since the beginning of spring, but very little timber has been destroyed, a bulletin from the Forest Protec tion Service stated. A total of some 12 square miles was destroyed by these fires, with only 124 acres of merchantable wood being affected. A bulletin states that there are 4,471 fire-rangers and assistants patrolling the forests of the Prov- ince, apd that it is due in no small) measure to their good work that the forest fires this year have caused very little damage. "We take advantage of this to inform all travellers that it is necessary to obtain a permit be- fore circulating in the woods. These permits are not for the pur- pose of preventing people from en- tering the forests, but to control their coming and going, and to call their attention to the precau- tions to be observed," it is stated. The damage caused by forest fires this year is divided as fol-. merchantable timber, 124 young timber, 612 acres; lows: acres; me and | The 'Community WATSON'S BEAUTY PARLOR Marcel, Permanent and Finger Waves.
