WEDNESDAY. NOVEMBER 17. THE FLESHERTON ADVANCR • f ' ^- W "m A HUMAN INTEREST STORY. (Kincardine Review-Reporter.) Recently a statement was made to us that stuck in our mind Ktcadily. A gentleman made the remark: "Is it not queer how a sensational thing will con\niand sa much attention in the newspapers and yet the human in- terest story has no appeal." We can- not say that the statement Is wrong â€" wo are sorry we can't. To show you what he meant let us offer you this comparison. How many of our readers do not know of Gertrude Ederlo. Very few that don't. She swam the English Channel and broke the time record in doing it. She made thousands of dol- lars out of it; got flaring headlines in the newspaper and so on. The jtory is recent and familiar and there is no need to recount it. Again, how many c,*f our readers know of Helen Gallagher? Very few, if any. Perhaps, though, you will re- member that song, "Oh, Mr. Gallag- er. Oh, Mr. Shean!" which brought fame and riches to Edward Gallagher on the stage and placed him and his partner, Shean, on the very pinnacle of success in their line. Helen Gal- lagher was Edward Gallagher's wife. She had married him before his suc- cess and shared with him his lean days and cheered him in his struK- gles. When richea came to Gallagher he thi*w over the devoted wife and mingled with other women and at last married the screen actress, Ann Lu- ther. After the divorce and remar- riage serious illness .visited Gallag- her. He became demented; he lost the use of his legs; he lost the use of his arms and almost lost his sight. Everything he had in the world was sold, and only a few weeks ago the last thing he owned, a house, was ta- ken away from him and after the mortgage and everything wa.s paid there were only a few dollars left of a fortune Gallagher had made. Success ruined Gallagher in health and finance, until to-day he is a total wreck. He stood alone in the world. The woman he spent money on, the women he lived with wanted nothing to do with him. Can you blame them â€" a cripple, incurable, and in just one of those conditions that he may live helpless and a burden to everyone for many years tn come.

His first wife, Helen â€"the girl he threw over, the girl that enjoyed none of his wealth, the sirl that struggled with him in pov- erty. She is a dancer and is sup- porting a mother and father in a little home. When she heard of Gal- lagher's condition she went to him and took him to the little home and ho is there now being eared for by the father and mother, and Helen is work- ing harder than ever to support a third mouth and give him a little peace and quiet until the day comes when he closes his eyes. There are few women like Helen Gallagher â€" one in a million. A wo- man may swim the English Channel and come in for a lot of glory, but a woman like Helen has done a far greater thing. Gertrude Ederle may j receive her roses now, but Helen Gal- lagher will receive hers in the next world. In the stress and struggle for existence, where competition ver- ges closely and frequently overhangs the borders of unfairness, thought- lessness, selfishness and utiforgivc- .^ess, occasionally there comes to tals do not want him, and there was .j^^^ ^ ^^^^^ jj^^ ^y^^^ ^^ jj^,^^ ^j^,. no money to put him m a hospital, i^^^er, that belies such ungenerous He stood practically a deserted man, thought and restores faith in man- and who do you suppose came forward j kin(( land , in Him whose teaching I points out that good should be re- turned for evil and that forgiveness is a foremost virtue. One cannot [ but hope that the Groat Power Vill bring some roses to Helen Gallagher while she is on earth for this great liuman act. And what does all this bring to us. Does it not make you wonder what is wrong with the world to-day when the sensational supercedes the human touch? 1 W. A. Armstrong & Son L Established 1889 Feeling a piepe of thread in his mouth and a sting in his stomach, while he was masticating at dinner one day last week. Jack McKinnon, the heaviest man in Walkerton for his height, retrieved the string just as the last of it was dipping from view and while the operation of re- claiming it all out of his system proved a ticklish performance, yet a.| the drdinancc ehowedi the end justified the means, for attached to the swallowed end was a dangerous looking needle. Talk about the whale being sick when it got Jonah down, but Walkerton's heavyweight would doubtlessly have found even more difficutly in digesting this emblem of the sewing circle How it got into his soup is as great a mystery aroUnd the .homestead as the old political problem, "Where did the money oome from?" was in the days i should be given frequent attention (EEPIN6 IJEtlS HEALTHY DRAINAQB AND Vi::.\TlLATION BOTH VBRV l.-Ii>OKTANT.

' (Contributed by Ont .rlo Ocpartroent of Avrleultoni I u i uij ' o. ) If poultry are to bo kept free from disease their livlni quai'tcrs will re- quire aa much att.-ntion as those of other stock. The sDceiallsts i;Ive the poultiy this attention and more, but the great majority of poultry-keeper* neglect the houslns conditions. First ot all the house should be supplied with drainage that will In- sure a dry floor at all times. Damp- ness promotes the growth of bacteria and makes birds subject to colds, roup and other diseases. Veutilattoa without drafts Is very nesessary, fresh air coming in and foul air go- ing out. Large amounts of moisture are eliminated from the lungs of birds. There are no sweat glands and the bird metabolism la much more intense than it Is with other farm animals. The exhaled moisture must be removed or the bouse will become damp and unsanitary. Pro- vide four square feet per bird, face tho house south and provide a large, open front through which the sun's rays can enter and reach every inch of floor space. Arrange the Interior of tho house to facilitate easy clean- ing and disinfection. This means movable nests, roosts and feed hop- pers, that can be lifted out to permit a thorough cleaning, at least once every three weeks. Tli-^ Huns. it fence in the poultry if It can be avoided. Better fence in the garden and give the birds the run of the farm. The green feed and In- sect life will do much to keep the young birds growing and healthy at no cost. If the birds must be reared under intensive conditions, then two fenced-in runs should be provided. Theso should be limed, spaded and seeded to some green feed crop, be- ing used for tho birds alternately. The use of lime and the application of the spado frequently will do much to keep tho yard in fair couditlon. Xho Utensils. Moat diseases spread through con- taminated feed and water. To pre- vent contamination, the utensils should be of such a design that the bird cannot get its feet into them. Feed hoppers and water fountains clear of scrachlng, and have a narrow platform on which the bird can stand" while feeding. Wide platforms will mean contamination. One large hop- per or fountain Is much better than a lot of little ones. Utensils in which milk and antiseptic drinks are used should be of crockery or enamel ware. Feeding utensils, if of such type OS can be soiled by the birds. I Even a sense of humor may exist in excess. There is a case of a sol- I dier who was sentenced to be flog- 'ged. He laughed continuaHy. The I harder the lash was laid on, the harder the soldier laughed. "Wot's' I 80 funny about bein' floggid?" "Why the soldier chuckled, "I'm the wrong man." ) As Mr. James W. Hudson of Ben- tinck was motoring on the highway about one mile east of his home, his Ford touring car took fire and was soon burned up with equipment. The cause is attributed to a defe<>ive connection, resulting in a short cir- cuit which soon ignited and wa^ fan- ned into flame by the machine being: in action.

The practice of throwing scratch feed on the same spot of ground is not the best. Those attending poul- try Bhould keep in mind that the bird soils or contaminates whatever ground It passes over, and the greater area of range the b'ss tlio degree of I contamination. The chicken cannot use a fork or shovel to clean the yard or pen, in which you keep It prisoner. In the wild state the bird looks after its own hygiene; as a creature of domestication under your charge, you must do it, if conditions are to be the best. â€" L. Stevenson, Dept. of Extension, O. A.
