Fenelon Falls Branch WOMEN WHORULE Father Minds the Baby While Mother Works The district of Willesden is a per- . tect paradise for a. certain type of husband; There is no need for him to go out _to work; his wife will see to that. _All he needzdo its/Stay at- home and’mind the baby. He has a ‘job for life, and practically nothing to do. I It is no uncommon thing for a bus band to mind the baby while his wife 'goes to work. This arrangement is due to the peculiar industrial con~ ditions of-Willesdeu, where there are many laundries and factories, and to male labor is much in demeLnd.‘ Ala though it ‘s cheaper than male labor would be at the same’class of work. the wages are good considering that only five days a. week are worked in the laundrles, the women 'not being required on Mondays. As much as from $5 to $6 a week can be earned, $5 being a. common wage, even for girls. Consequently the women rule the industrial world of Willesden. The positions of man and wife are re- versed. _ There is no need for the man to go to work. Not only would he be unsuitable for thevjob, but the labor and the wages would not suit him. . The Forth Brldgc __ The Forth Bridge in Scotland has 9. total length, with its approaches, of 8,295 feet. It contains 50,968 tons of steel, and required 6,500,000 rivets to fasten it together. There are three huge built graceful steel towers, each 845 feet high, from Which are built out'the great cantilever arms, each 680 feet in length. Sir Benjamin Baker declared that a battleshiplconld be hung at the end of each cantilever arm 'without causing the ties at the tops at the tower to part, so strong is the structure. The bridge contains two spans of 1,700 feet. the greatest of all bridge spans. The structure took seven years to build, .cOst $15,- 000,000, and demanded a toll of fifty- seven lives. ' Memorlzl-ng Flgures Mark Twain told of a. pilot who know every bend, creek, current and shal- low in the Mississippi river through- out its whole mighty length, but could‘ not remember what he had for break- fast. A story is told of one man with a memory that apparently collects only figures. ~ He can always remember one’s age, even if he forgets the name. He will memorize easily the times of all the trains to a given place, but be generally forgets .the platforms from which'they start. Reel off to him a column of statistics and he will out a. mistake. _ INCORPORATED BY ACT OF PARLIAMENT recite them again a. month later with- 78 Years in Business. Capita. TB EA |., MONTREAL.

They have to tight with each other 101' room enough in the soil to’ live, and the weaker plants often go’ under in the struggle for eklstence. The battles ofplants, however,'are- mainly fought against the animals and: insects which are always threatening to destroy them.‘ 1 Many plants have wonderful weaw‘ pons for their protection. The thorns‘ of the rose bush. bramble and gorse prevent cows andhorses from eating them, as well as'keeplng off snails and sings. The cactus family of plants‘ have a. formidable armor of prickles anddaggers. The plant known as the! Spanish bayonet is armed with taper» pointed spears that have flie-like= edges. Some plants, such as the rag-' ged robin, have sticky stems, covered with fine hairs to which insects stick. it they climb up to try to steal the honey. - Many plants use poison as a means of protection. The sun spurge has a poisonous juice which kills any in-I sects Which approach ‘ it, while the; poisonous properties of the deadly '. nightshade are .well known. The common bladder wort, an aquaâ€"- tic plant, not only defends itself against insects and animals, but . catches “worms and fish for its to’od. Perhaps the most original means of self-defense is that possessed by a. strange plant called the rattlesnake iris, which grows on the prairies of 'America. When ripe 'ts seeds give a. irattllng .noise very similar to that made by a rattlesnake. This is great- 1y feared by animals, who will never ' go near the plant. Baseball In England Baseball has invaded at least one school ground in England. With the aid of a. diagram of the diamond and a more or, less accurate description- of the game cut from the papers, the youngsters of a. London County Coun- cil school equipped themselves for the tray. A, piece of broomstick served as a. bat. In stern adherence to the rules of the game the pitcher pro- vided himself with a hard heavy ball. also. He understood it to be his duty to hurl it as fast as he could. Un- fortunately the players were not able to perform the miracle of the American champions and at the end of ten minutes the catcher was weeping and the first baseman was staunching the flow from his wounded nose, while centre field was hopping around on one foot-l Baseball is off for the pre~, sent in that school.
