This denomination depends almost entirely on the annual Self-Denial to sustain the Home and Foreign Mis- sion work which they are carrying on.

This fertilizer should not be allowed to touch the foliage if the latter is moist, as it is apt to burn it, On this account it is safe to dissolve in water and sprinkle or it may be broadcast by hand during or just be- fore a rainfall or before the hose is turned on, It should not be applied until growth has started, Before varnishing floors, if they are in good condition, wash them with soap and water, rinse with clear wa- ter, and do not apply the varnish un til the floor is thoroughly dry, HAPPY IS THE DOWERED BRIDE; FRENCH "DOT" WORTH COPYING London, April 22, -- The English- man flatters himself that his race is the most practical on earth, He also believes that the French are the most sentimental, The truth of the mat- ter is that the French are nothing if not practical and logical, while the English are arrantly sentimen- tal and do not take kindly to logie, writes Horace Newte, in the Sunday Pictorial, It is owing to the fact of our sen- timent that our marriages happen as they do; that everything is left to love; whilst other very necessary es+ sentials are left in the background. Incidentally, our national equi ment of sentiment was an invaluable asset to Victorian parents with quiv- ers full of daughters, Had it not been for this, they worl not so eas- ily have got them of' iieir hands, Nowadays, howevc., financial stress has had a big say in this matter, Redundant families are the excep- tion; and many young couples who want to get married cannot afford to chance their luck, Recently, instead of waiting long years, young men and women have followed the example of the French, ------ and the women have either kept their jobs, or have gone out to worl, in order to assist in the upkeep of the home. This tendency, which, I believe, is inevitably on the increase, implies that sooner or later we shall follow the example of the French in the matter of dowry. Tis, as everyone knows, is the money saved by the parents for the daughter's marriage portion, Objections will -immediately he raised to any suggestion of dowries. Parents will say, as so many have said before, that they do not want their daughters to he sold into mar- riage. Also, that love is the only possible foundation for marriage; and that the unhappiness of French marriages, as revealed in certain plays and novels, is a final argument against the dot, These objections are easily ans- wered. French marriages are, in fact, more successful than ours. French husbands and wives are out to make the best of their bargain. Not relying wholly on sentiment, as we do, they calmly face facts, and do their best to avoid likely pitfalls.

Teir action is voluntary. They could have kept the money if they wished. Mr, Armour, at the date of his death, owed $18,000,000 to Armour and Co., of which he was chairman of the board, and had assumed lia- bility for payment of the $7,000,000 worth of bonds of the Sutter Basin company, The two women will pay the debt to Armour and Co, in full and will furnish capital for reorgan- izing the Shtter Basin company so that it can operate profitably. All marketable securities of the estate of J. Ogden Armour will be used up in these settlements and the additional sum of about $10,000,000 will come from the personal fortunes of Mrs, Armour and Mrs, Lolita Ar- mour Mitchell, it is stated, Once Had $120,000,000 In 1921 Mr, Armour was reputed to be worth $120,000,000, When death came to him in London last summer, it is disclcosed by the settlements, he was worth very little. It is not true that he died insolvent, but his remaining millions were tied up in investments upon which cash could not be quickly realized. The Sutter Basin Land company is one; Univer- sal Oil Products is another, When conditions change the widow and daughter may recover their $10,000, 000 again in cash or marketable se- curities, bs i § H HL IEEE jis § § : BS: § ; !
