recent ratepayers meeting hn shelburnet- dufferm ratepayers would cut do minion and provincial salaries 35 and 25 per cent respectively that would be a start in the proper direction hot the expense of government adminis tration and frills strikes us as the worst offence when it conies to wide- open spending these departments in many instances do not know what the word economy means a big part of this overspending is the result of political pull of which one party is just as guilty as the other we ven ture to say theres a lot of money squandered on salaries and other ex penses simply on the excuse that the government is paying for it tax payers realise who is really paying the bul itls not a coincidence neither that governinentappolnted officials are paid higher salaries in accordance with work performed than other tn- dtvtduals an example of useless ex penditure is much in evidence at ot tawa where book after- book of prac tically useless statistics are printed and distributed but are referred to only on rare occasions now when wartime salaries and expenditures are still in vogue would be a tune moat opportune far a general house- cleaning in both the provincial and dominion house and a general cutting down of the cost of gayernmenyad- mtrtiirtim thats the place where a lot of public money is spent and bn numerous oases it is most lavishly spent its little wonder people hold meet ings with a view to relieving tax- there isnt much money nus- muntdpany start at the gov- department where a rigid ruling in the interests of true eoon omy could be made and there would not

much to do they sure would be bad failures without the always faithful few two trespassers by ettml holmes tine stepped up to some flowers that were laoung ana uuijea their per- luuie j i love mowers don t you she i asked x aid once but after attending a ioicoession ol luneralt 1 have come to disuse mem wnai a pilyl they seem like be loved irlenas 10 me ihey talk to me lve heard girls say

ureterjomg to listen to the rer py he soloed nuke if she knew what it was what was it she asked santhy says that i have a very nice girl with me but im doing very wrong in leading her to trespass on other persons property this recalled eute u the ultuauon gearsetqii to women sowers are irresistible men so love flowers but it is questionable if any ever felt toward tliem sb a woman may feel to a man ftowerrmay be beauti ful to a woman they may be com-pan- ions she may tell them what lies nearest to her heart and she will de rive syrnpathy from them effle tlsdale was one of those girls to whom flowers thus appeal jn- the spring she would watch for the first wild sowers and take long walks in the country to gather them i would have culttvated flowers had there been any ground for the pur pose about her home ijlvtng in atar she was obliged to go elsewhere for her favorites one day toward the close of the summer when the flowers that are cultivated bv the open were fast shed ding their petals effle concluded to take one of her long walks if she could not find bowers she might at least enjoy a beautiful view she had often looked upon several miles from the town it was a good day for walking the air corning out of the northwest and laden with the first crispnens of autumn she stepped out briskly drinking in the beauties of natural scenery as only one can who has been endowed with the gift of such appreciation when she came to the view she ooutght she sat on a stone and feasted her eyes upon it her whole being refreshed with it as if she had drunk some delicious bever- sge she was looking from an emin ence toward a gap between two ranges of hills or more properly mountains in places the foliage had begun to lose its deep summer green here and there a light smoke from some house curled up against the landscape over all the afternoon sun spread a gomen glow when effle had feasted her eyes for some time she arose for her return which she chose to mske by another route at the foot of the declivity be neath her the road turned and led into another which would take her back home she descended from her perch her eyes lingering upon the view before her as she walked passed around the bend and ascended another rise hi the ground on this elevation was a country place the awnings to protect the windows and the porch from the sun were still m their places wicker chairs and hammocks had not been taken in the gate jvss open a gravel walk led up to the house and a conserva tory beside it most of the plants had been removed from then- beds to their glass winter home the open gate and the gravel walk were inviting effle was drawn try the sight of ver dure under the transparent house to go in and inhale that delicious odor so enjoyable to lovers of plants but dare she that was a queston she alone could decide she looked kingingh for some time into the rnclosure eapecting to see some one moving about despite the appearance of occupancy no one ap peared the place had sorely not been closed for the corning winter or the porch furniture would have been re moved if sure the occupants bad gone away effle thought she would venture in f not she would refrain while she was peering wistfully she beard a step and a young man in hunting costume and with a gun on his shoulder approached effle won dered if he would know whether the coast was clear qan you tell me she asked whether the family living tn that house are there now why do you wish to know asked the young man because because well i would like to- go in and look about the con servatory you dent mean that you are afraid to do so the huntsman inter rupted it isnt that if the family were not there it wouldnt be so much like trespassing but u would be trespassing all the wouldnt it i dont know there would be no one there to be offended well such being the cas we go in and have a look i will if theres no one except the caretaker there isnt the occupants went to the city yesterday leaving the but ler to close up cornel ita go tn and make ourselves at home effle shrank back i only wish to see the plants in the conservatory she said i dent know if i would be allowed there til be allowed there was the re ply and if any one attempts to put me out hell have to fight for the privilege the timid girl looked with admira tion and envy on this fearless man who dare invade anothers premises and followed him meekly into the grounds she felt somewhat anxious since he hod a gun lest he might shoot some one but when he reached the house he deposited the weapon to gether with his other hunting para- phernalla on the porch then contin ued ms way toward the conservatory the door stood open and deferentially standing aside for bfae to pass in he followed her she stood inside look ing around her adonirlngly how different the sir in here from outsider she said kind of moldy something like the hudde of a tonb not at atj uta a tomb its a home for bring plants 11m odor is then- tsreatsv and she looked anxiously toward the door- uont be frightened said the young man then ir the bower bnthy just you tell whoever is in charge ol trus place that i can throw stones even lit i do live in a glass house tie said this with a pretense of valor that made erne wonder all the more though she was a bit frightened at tne prospect ol a battle with the but ler santhys talking to me again said the poacher he says take all the flowers you want and give them to the little girl with you shes just the daintiest prettiest creature that ever been in this conservatory doot you see all the flowers bowing their heads before her look at that aster over there hes dying of envy of you ihis sounded very pleasant to etne and she blushed a little which one of you flowers con tinued the young man could put on a tint uke that the best any of you could do would be like the paint on a red wagon in compsrieoo- all youre flt for is to deworate ner with this he began to gather such flowers as were in bloom ant turn them over to effle ob doutl she cried you mustnll thats robbery i i love robbery i think i would like to have been a burglar by the bye suppose we break into the house he said this so seriously that effle was not sure but that he meant it at any rate she caught ner breath when he had loaded her with flowers he said come lets see what we can find elsewhere if i meet any one ill make him set up something to eat urging kffle to go with him be left the conservatory and ascending the porch rang the bell the summons wati answered by a middle aged serv ant woman is there anything left in the lar der asked the burglar theres some crackers and cheese sir and a part of a cake bring them out and make a pitcher of fruit punch effles mind was so imbued with the belief that her companion was a tres passer that it did not occur toner that he bad any right whatever to give such an order her imagination help ed her to hear this order given in a commanding tone instead of waiting the qountry papeb speaks i am the oldest business in this town old mills have been ahandoned i persist old houses old hotels of great renown have gone their ways but x still exist upon my inky pages there appears the story of this place throughout the years i told of youth and wars of girls who wed of rich and poor alike of thief and sage and how they lived though most of them are dead while ageless i am of the present age mans varied sets have always been my teat what happened lung ago and comes next though i am old in truth j still say npjjhtag can be so nearly op- both yesterdays and morrows i vey of neerdowells and those of high estate t live because i served and still shall live because of all i have to all i give bristow adams notes and comments for the refreshment she took to flight laughing the young man ran after her hold on he said and 111 explain live here my moun and sisters have gone to town rimalned for some shooting forgive me for tan- posing upon you you looked so wist fully innocent when i saw you peer ing in at the gate that i couldnt help it wont you take a bite with me on the porch the butlers wife will wait on us effle bad no mind to accept such an invitation though she consented to keep the flowers her entertainer of fered to take her home in his car but she declined this offer too riartig him good day she set off to walk home presently she heard the sound of an auto behind her and along came the trespasser he drove the ear be side her and finally convinced her that she might as well ride with a strange man as walk while he rode beside her when a man determines to get a woman for mneu his superior dom inant power is a great advantage to him this man had tn this girl with tfae fact that he possessed daring which was foreign to herself and though he had that be had been chaffing her the impression did not fade be had followed her in his auto and ren it absurd for her to keep walking while she nugbt be riding besides she would much rather ride with an agreeable young man than walk alone thus far it was all resistance on her part now they came to a part of the road where it forked one ford led to her home directly the other by a roundabout way the driver turned into the latter road effle made no move to induce him to take the other perhaps she delayed till too late an auto is a hard vehicle to turn it re quires much backing when they reached her home they had ridden many miles during the following winter a stater of effle entertainer called on her and she was the recipient of flowers from the conservatory on which she had trespassed the dominion budget shows war tax revenues of 132000000 out of total tax revenues of 373000000 an nual tprnf arising out of the war amount to more thin 132000000 an nually yet it may be questioned it is proper to contlniiff the use of the phrase war tax revenue to desl nate those tax sources that were first initiated during the war the inooi tax will probably remain for many years a source of federal revenue and the sales tax too may remain al though rates should be steadily reduc ed in both cases calling such taxes war taxes provides an implied blind abbl for continued extravagance fin ancial post the farmer must get more for his produce if good times are to he return ed general business is greatly hand icapped while farm prices are so low it is essential to prosperity that far mers can afford to buy because they represent a great part of the popula tion and agriculture is easily the na tions major industry until they can buy other industries products pros peritys return will be retarded but they will not be able to buy any thing but the bare necessities of life while their work brings such poor re turns we cannot understand why the farmer should get the butt end at the stick when he is engaged in the basic and most important industry bn the country crop report below will be found a brief synopsis of telegraphic reports received at the head office of the bank of montreal from its branches under date of may 5th oeneral agricultural operations in every province of the rwvnlnlnn have been delayed by a cold wet spring and in consequence the pionming and seeding of the principal crops will probably not be completed until from ten days to three weeks later than was the case last year when field work i wss ahead of the average in the prairie provinces the land prepared for seeding at the opening of the sea son is estimated at 20500000 which compares with lft000000 acres last year moisture cnndlmnm are better than for the past
