In the old country it has been 'very different for a hundred years past at least. There the highest in the land are proud to be identified with agri- culture. As the means of giving the boy a personal interest in the farm, see that he gets no money for spend- ing purposes even, save that which he earns. At the same time do not overwork the boys ; allow them time for recreation. I knew a family of bright boys raised on a farm, .and some of whom should be farmers yet, but all left the old place. Why ? Because from week’s end to week’s end there was no let up to the work, rain or shine, and they became disâ€" gusted with the whole thing. The high school is a source of danger so far as the farm is concerned. The majority of the pupils at the ,high schools are preparing for'other call- ings, and the whole atmosphere there is hostile to the farm. A boy going there, if strongly inclined toward farming. is apt to be led away when he finds all the other b'oys talking of their preparations for, other call- ings.

Every mother should be in a position to guard against, or cure these troubles, and there is no medicine known to medi- cal science will act so surely. so speedin and so safely as ‘Bfl"8 Own Tablets.

It is only by the merest chance that Herbert Stiner. the nineâ€"year- old son of Mr. Frederick Stiner oi this place, is alive to-night. Shortâ€" ly after noon to-day he, with (num- ber of his little companions. Went for a bath in the creek. a mile north of the town. Suddenly the lad. who could not swim, stepped into a deep swimming hole and was at once caught by the strong current. none of the others noticing his predica- meat. Providentially, Frank A. Nutting. oldest son of Principal Nutting of the public school, had just arrived. and was undressing when he saw a little head appear above the water. He naturally thought the 'boy was practising diving. but when he dis- appeared the second time, farther down the stream. and he was in- formed who it was, he plunged half dressed into the water. Diving where he thought the boy would be. he discovered that he had clutched a snag at the bottom of the hole. Diving the second time the young. man succeeded in disengaging his hands and brought him to the sur- face, when, holding him under one arm, he reached the bank. The boy was unconscious, but his rescuers. by working his arms.‘ finally restored him to consciousness. 0f the recent election of commie. sinners to manage the Feneion Fans municipal power scheme, the Star says : The election for commissioners took place on Mondav and resulted in the election of Dr. Gould G- M3:- tin and M. W. Brandon. The poll stood as follows' Gould, 129; Mar- tin, 101; Brandon, 72: Littlemn, 64; Heard, 39. A new man will be elected each year. The one coming third to drop out first. This will leave it that another commissioner will be elected in January in place of Mr. Brandon. All the parties elected are good men and we think the village deserves the greatestcm (lit for the ahle manner in which this matter has been carried forward to a successful issue. in such a short space of time. The village is m be complimented also on the appoint- ment of Mr. I". A. McDiarmid to the position of secretaryâ€"treasuna- of the board. as the success of the scheme Had it not been for Mr. Nutting‘s opportune arrival. the boy would certainly have been drowned. as his companions were small and none of them could swim. Mr: Nutting is himself not a good swimmer. “I hardly knew what, I was doing," he said simply.~ “I only knew \-."hat my duty was." Recognition of his courage by the Humane Society ught to be forthcoming.

The ship is moored some dis- tance from the quay, and round flat discs, thirty inches in diameter, am fixed on the humans. A rat ought not to be able to either jump or to climb over that obstacle; and. to make things doubly sure. the rope ls smeared with tar on both 1%ch of the disc. Little the rats can for that. As the cargo is discharged and the ship rise. in the water, the hawsen be- come twisted and out come the rats, ocuttling for the human, dragging their feet through the tar. and us- ing every tWIst of the rope to help them to get. over the disc. ed. but no dead bodies Were (cum, and the next day another disâ€" trict, a. mile away, was so pestnred by an invasion of strange rats that the residents were afraid they would be driven out of the locality. Great lengths of sewers were block- ed up and fumigated. and when the water was sent strramiug through attcrward the authorities looked to so. it come out thick with the bod- some healthier area.

As it is certain that only a fraction was secured. and as the population of Sydney is something less than 500,000, it is reasonable to assume that there must have been as many rats as hu- man beings in Sydney. If the parallel holds goodâ€"and London is an older city than Sydâ€" neyâ€"the rat population at London should be five or six millions. Those will take a great deal 01 exterminat- {cs 01 the slain.
