THE WOOD Few persons do ' their real best work. What is worth doing is worth doing well. It is safe -to say that none of us. do our very best* all the time. Intelligent endeavor usually .produces ; most satisfactory results. JThere are many energetic and educated educated -wprkers in alPspheres of activity, but the combination of these virtues is. rarer than it should be with us. We have seen, too, instances - where persons were energetib, proper go- abea4 hustlers and yet they nave accomplished accomplished very little of real merit. Perhaps their energy was wasted for lack of iniative and systematic planning, planning, a want Of a proper conception of the end desired to be obtained. It pays to think out the best, most economical economical and efficient way in which to accomplish certain work. They bave not taken the time to consider the result result which they are trying to achieve, simply being aware that a certain work has to be executed. * * * * Women, more than men, are often victims of this lack of intelligent expenditure expenditure of energy. How often have we observed a girl sweeping. The wise plan to pursue would be one to prevent the dust from rising, but too often it looks as if it were really to raise the dust and let it settle on walls and furniture and then wait till it settles and then with a dry cloth makès another round to raise it again, and so another portion is added to that already on the walls and furniture furniture and some returns to the floor. Is this not a true picture of frequent efforts efforts ? What is wrong ? Doing this dusting in such energetic but unintelligent unintelligent manner is to defeat one's object in part and consequently most of the energy expended is an actual, absolute absolute waste. Too often it may be the intelligent woman is physically not vigorous and' finds it necessary to take life calm, and easy. Perhaps she dislikes work. She has the ideas, knows how things should be done but lacks the energy necessary to do or to carry them out. Such ones should study method, find out where they are lacking and apply the remedy for such misdirected energy. * * * * Spring-time is really here, after being being long deferred, and how we - welcome welcome the joyful season. One writer with a keen appreciation of its loveliness loveliness and with unusual imaginative powers of depicting the pleasurable qualities truthfully, says that one of the greatest joys that comes to us is the pleasure of spring-time. To my mind it is the very happiest season of all the year, so full is it of the promise of life. As we notice the tiny buds struggling to the light, bursting from branch and twig, as we listen to the carol of the birds as they sing their songs of glee to the opening day, we cannot but be touched with the beauty and -majesty of the world as God made it, if we have eye and ear and heart to appreciate. As we hearken to the music of the swiftly rushing stream, tossing, tumbling, racing along on its journey; as we breathe- and bask in the rays of the glowing sun, warmed by its welcome beams; we cannot but' feel that it is a glorious and wonderful thing to live on this fair earth, and beneath these radiant heavens. - * * •* * Spring-time is not alone a time for new hats and clothes, a time for spring-cleaning and fashion hunting; it is a season when we ought to be alive to the outdoor beauty of the world. It is the. time of all the year when we ought to have our eyes about us, and our ears attuned to the sounds of music and of birds. We ought to keep awake to the new-born beauty of nature, and receive into our very souls the great and everlasting truth that "God is love," and still how many j are closing their eyes to the brilliant and beautiful which nature is giving, ' to enchant the eye and enwrap the ! sould with admiration, and remembering remembering only the dark cold of winter. What are the very worst sufferings .you have had in life? Have they been actual happenings, stern events that you could not avoid ? We wish we could actually hear our many friends ! answer, and know how many bridges \ you have crossed before you came to them; how many troubles you have taken on interest, how much you have suffered from things that have never happened.

Let us cast worry aside and each do our part to make the world better and happier in these trying times. In this' age, the world needs men and women, not cowards and "slackers," men and women- are bearing themselves bravely on the battlefront of Europe and we give all honor to them, who from motives of Patriotism have made sacrifice for the Motherland. Within the last few days we have had the privilege of réading a letter written by a Lance- Corporal who is on duty in France, there's where bravery and courage is found. "I would not give the six months I have spent in France for a whole lot," writes the corporal, "During "During these months I have lived. I have experienced all the feelings of the soul, I have known fear, anxiety, and depression. On the other hand I have also tasted joy, glory, ambition and satisfaction. Knowing I am doing my bit, is the joy of my life. Wè certainly take chances every hour and should I fall--well it is better to die for home and country than live a "slacker" and coward. If every man would only realize there is work to do and each and every man must do their share, what a big fine thing this world would be and they no longer would .hesitate to make any sacrifice." Truly splendid, splendid, is it not ? Ànd he was only a Lance-Corporal who wrote those words. - e * * * * We discovered -this inspiring thought in our reading to-day and cannot produce a better paragraph as a subject for deep and deliberate consideration consideration of young then and women. James Allen in his book "As a Man Thinketh," makes the statement, without without qualification, that mantis made or unmade by himself. In the arihory of thought he forges the weapons by which he destroys himself. He also fashions the -tools with which he builds for himself heavenly mansions of joy, - strength and peace. By the right choice and = true application of thought man ascends to the Divine Perfection; by the abuse and wrong application of thought he descends below below the level of the beast. Between these two extremes are all the grades of character and man is there maker and master. It is well to read and ponder over this wonderful declaration. declaration. What encouragement it should afford to every man and woman who desires to make the best of life's opportunities--that opportunities--that man is the master of thought, the moulder of character and the maker and shaper of condition, condition, environment and destiny. • * * * * If this doctrine is true and we believe believe it fully, man is always the master master even in his weakest and most abandoned state. But in his weakness weakness and degradation he is the foolish ■master who misgoverns his personal "household." When he begins to reflect reflect upon his condition and to search diligently for. the Law upon which his j being is established he then becomes the wise master, directing his energies with intelligence and fashioning his thoughts to fruitful issues. Such is the conscious master, and man can only this become by discovering within within himself the laws of thought, which discovery is totally a matter of application, application, self-analysis and personal experience. experience. That man is the maker of his character, the moulder of his life, and the builder of his destiny he may unerringly prove if he will watch, control control and alter his thoughts, tracing their effects upon himself, upon others and upon his life and circumstances, linking cause arid effect by patient practice and investigation, even to the most trivial everyday occurrence as a means of obtaining that knowledge bf himself "Miich is understanding wisdom wisdom and power. By these he can enter enter the door of the Temple of Knowledge. Knowledge. * * * * ** War news is most thrilling to-day. The German attack on the Canadian division in Flanders has made a large casualty list for a few days. The Jutland Jutland sea fight and wrecking of the cruiser Hampshire carrying Lord Kitchener and his staff and several other military officers to the bottom of the sea, make a terrible war page for the first few days of June, 1916/ All these events serve to make .the situation situation still more uncertain. . It would Peace. There is do moral force which the belligerents would listen to for a moment; that the killing must go on; that millions of men must perish to gratify insane ambition of the Kaiser arid his war lords. This process of attrition will produce mutual exhaustion; exhaustion; and then these/ men who made^war will have to/sign terms of /peace, after shedding rivers of hlood --terms of peace which " could have been agreed upon without the taking of; à single life. And-when peace is sighed it will take a century to restore restore the world to anything like as good- a condition as it was before the war started. * * * * Englishmen coming to - Canada strike the larger cities and put up at the fashionable, hostelries where the "blue blood" humans--what there is of that ilk--do love to congregate and air their views. These travellers naturally naturally then form their opinions from the infpressions they receive under these abnormal conditions. One such writer recently dilated upon the conduct conduct of Canadian youths, saying- how different the boys and girls of to-day regard life compared with the view point held twenty-five or thirty years years ago. They laugh at the sanctities sanctities of religion, and rather pity the simple-mindedness of their parents, who would keep to the old paths. They say that all they know is the present; and that they want a good time. He points out that that "good time" if it contravenes the laws of -being which are immutable, means ultimate suffering, suffering, for he who sins must suffer the consequences of sin---here, in this present present life, in body or mind. It would be well indeed, if this truth could be engraven on the general heart. The young find the primrose path of pleasure pleasure sweet. They do not intend to be wicked. They do not plot any conscious conscious evil. They simply enjoy; and take rio thought of the future. But the Book of books points out, that the days will come when the soul ; shall say that it has "no pleasure in them." The erstwhile hot blood of youth will flow cold and thin, through the withered withered veins. The desires which gave life a hectic flush of pleasure will perish. The joy of life will die. There will be the unavailing regret that the life was not lived continently and soberly to give a happy and mellow old age. * * * * Gospel of Thrift is popular to-day. We hear it preached from pulpit and in press. It is a good gospel at any time but especially good in these war times. It is no new advice for "Gather up the fragments that remain remain that nothing be lost" was the Master's command to His disciples. It is proper to take care that nothing be lost--neither food, nor fuel, nor clothing, nor health, nor energy, nor time, nor talents, nor opportunity. Surely a wide and varied scope for economy. If all these things are economized to the utmost the gain to each individual and to the nation will be so great as to be almost incredible. For instance, mustajjCCs a small item in the expenditure ox|a household, but the result of the wàrit of economy in it is shown by the story of a mustard mustard manufacturer who had amassed i a large fortune. A friend expressed surprise that he had made so much wealth out of an article which people took in such small quantities. "I did not make my money out of what people people ate," said he. "I made it out of what they left on their plates." What happens to riiustârd happens to other things, too. Breakfast is usually a light meal. Look at the table after the family have eaten--a half pat of butter on one plate, a spoonful of jam or marmalade on another, a piece of meat or fish on another and several pieces of bread or toast. At later meals conditions are equally bad in many cases--we see slices of meat, portions of vegetables, pudding or other kinds of dessert. Scotch parents compelled children to eat everything that was put on their plate. One great rule that should be kept in every household is that no piece of bread, however small, should ever be thrown away; every scrap should be collected collected nd put into a basket which should be kept for bread alone. Some of them may be toasted, others made into a bread pudding and others baked baked in an oven and eaten like biscuits.

Health .officers everywhere are exèft- irig themselves to make us" realize our duty to kill every fly within reach, and not only kill them, but ; to prevent their propagation. Greater forces than ever before are operating to this end. It is "realized tnàé it is within the power of the house fly to slay, more human beings than can the most modern artillery of the heaviest calibre! It is only a few years ago that the dangers of . what Ecclesiastes refers to as "the fly in the ointment," was made plain. Prof. L. O. Howard, chief of the Bureau of Entomology in the U.S., has made an extensive study of flies, and has given the results in a government government bulletin which contains valuable information every one should have to systematically "swat the fly." He tells us there are several species of flies which are commonly found in houses, although but one of these should properly be called the house fly---the chap that mainly does the mischief. He is found in nearly every part of the world, and is a mediumsized, mediumsized, grayish color, with its mouth parts spread out at the tip for sucking Up liquid substances, and hence is unable to bite, thus refuting a general impression. The housé fly lays its eggs upon all kinds of-filth, about 120 in number on the average--a single fly lying at least from 2 to 4 such batches in a season. Under favorable conditions of moisture moisture and temperature, the egg state will only last about 8 hours, when the maggots that issue from the eggs, being being very transparent and small, begin to grow rapidly. " As the larvae attain full size they assume a creamy white color, and just before pupation they become very restless and migrate in search of a favorable place in which to pass the pupal stage/ They congregate at the edges of piles of filth near the ground and often burrow into the soil beneath, beneath, or crawl away to pupate in loose ground, or under the edges of stones, boards, etc. The pupal or "sleepers," are barrel shaped, and of a dark brown color. In midsummer this stage lasts from 3 to 10 days. The adult fly, upon emerging from the pupa stage, works its-way upward through the soil or filth, and upon reaching the air, it crawls about for a time while its wings are expanding apd the body hardens, when it assumes assumes its normal coloration. In a very few. days the females of the brood are ready to deposit eggs, and this multiplication multiplication of the. pest becomes enormous. enormous. The body is thickly covered with tiny hairs and bristles of varying lengths when seen by a microscope, and this is especially true of the legs. Thus, when' it crawls over infected material it soon becomes loaded with germs, and subsequent visits to human foods result, in their contamination from the germs they carry. In army camps, on public works, etc., where large numbers of men congregate, congregate, there is not always proper sanitation, and the carriage of typhoid germs to the food by flies is common, resulting in typhoid fever. This is true also in farm-houses, and even in badly cared for portions of large cities. In the same manner other intestinal intestinal germ diseases are carried by flies, Asiatic cholera, dysentery, infantile infantile diarrhoea, etc., are all so carried. carried. It is said, also, that they carry tubercular germs, the germs of anthrax, anthrax, smallpox, ophthalma, etc. Sticky fly paper is the common way to destroy the fly and it is quite effectual. effectual. Another way is to expose in shallow dishes a mixture of formalin and milk, or water (sweetened), in about equal portions. This is most effective when no other liquids are accessible to the flies, which they prefer. prefer. This mixture is not poisonous to man, and will not injure fabrics, and is much safer than the fly poison containing containing arsenic. Burning fresh pyréthrum powder in a room is very effective, and fly traps are used to advantage when placed on the outside of houses, stores, stables, etc., but the most logical way of abating abating the fly nuisance is the elimination of their breeding places. The Bureau of Entomology advises that all refuse and filth be kept in fly-tight tins or bins, or treated by proper chemicals which will kill the eggs and maggoVs of the fly. The best chemical for this purpose is powdered hellebore, a water extract is prepared by adding one-half pound of the powder powder to every 10 gallons. of water, allowing allowing it to stand 24 hours, after thoroughly stirring it. This is sprinkled sprinkled over -the manure pile--ten gals, for every 10 cubic feet of manure. This will destroy from .88 bo 99 per cent of the fly larvæ. Powdered borax" is also very effective, effective, When diluted with water, or when water is sprinkled on after the borax has been scattered over the filth. It is said this will not only kill the larvæ bub will prevent the /eggs from hatching. hatching. All should join in this crusade, for it will avail but little if one's neighbors neighbors are not equally careful. An educational educational campaign as to methods • is desirable also.
