Although no fev er than three Suni flays are observed each week In Algiers, writes a correspondent, only One conld In any sense be called a t'day of rest." For while the prophet enjoined his followers fo attend worship on Sanday, he warned them ^gainst allowing It to become a day of idleness. An Arab or Moor, theretore, will frequently leave his wares Unattended in his shop while he goes off to the mosque to pray, and he seldom has occasion to regret this course, cases of robbery being extremely rare. tThe Frenah Sunday is typically ^French. The Jew alone makes his Sunday a day of rest, his religion forbidding anything save talking on that day. A walk through the Jewish • quarter on the Sabbath will carry one's thoughts back many years. Hie picturesque groups at the street corners, in their rich, flowing robes, will recall many an Old Testament story learned in childhood, for the Jew in his oriental garb has a very different appearance from the Jew as we know him in the West. ' Marine Glue. Marine glue is prepared by dissolving one part of India rubber in crude benzine and mixing with two parts of shellac, by the aid of heat. The waterproof character of this cement in connection with its elastic flexibility makes it a useful substance in many applications to house construction and to furniture. This glue is applied with ease when warm, and cools with promptness. It was originally intended to be used chiefly on board ship and is well known in Europe. ' Certainly Not.

Wni ld Above 40 Cents Over the ' fixed Seals Set--World Looking ' to the Dominion for Its Grain. * It win be of Interest to many readers to learn that their farmer friends in Canada will do so well out of the wheat they grew on western Canada's prairies last year. There was a fixed price of $2.15 per bushel paid for their wheat last- season. Not knowing the price at which It would be possible to market .the crop, the Canadian grain board, which organization handled the whole of the crop last summer, fixed $2.15 as a minimum price for No. 1 wheat, and arranged that each farmer should be given certificates for the quantity of wheat he delivered. The amount received over and above the fixed price which was paid to the farmers when selling their wheat was to be divided pro rata at the end of the season, and the holders of these certificates will, therefore, participate In the extra price received according to the quantity of wheat sold. The latest advices are that the wheat board will pay at least 40 cents a bushel over the fixed rate of $2.15 a bushel for their wheat of last season. This means that about £40,000,000 will be distributed among the farmers of Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba. This sum represents the difference In the price at whicb the wheat crop was sold and the price that was fixed for last season's crop. Canadian Wheat In Demand. A declaration that Canadian wheat would in all probability sell this year at between $3 and $5 per bushel, was made recently before a conference of western supporters of the government by Dr. Robert Magill, who was one of a deputation from the Winnipeg grain exchange. Dr. Magill argued in favor of open trading from the aspect of world conditions. He stated that no wheat could be exported from Russia owing to Internal troubles. Roumanta would have absolutely none to export, India was prohibiting export, while Australia's acreage would fall from 12,000,000 to 7,000,000. The result would be that Australia would scarcely have enough to feed herself, and there would be absolutely no wheat for Europe, except from the Argentine and North America. Dr. Magill, according to formal announcement, though it would be impossible to secure as good a price for the producer by control as by the open market. The United States market was now open, and, according to present prospects, there would be mlgbty little to spare from that quarter. The net result would be that Canadian wheat would undoubtedly go to a record figure.--Advertisement, FOR EVERY DAY, AS IT WERE Soldier's Preference Was for Something of Which He Could Make General Use. A British general who was commandant of a district In India had presented the prizes at the garrison sports, and was rather surprised when one of the prize-winners, a private In an Infantry regiment, approached him a few days later and begged to know If he would be allowed to change his prize for something useful. "What was your prize?" asked tbe general. In reply, the man produced a long case under his arm, and showed a handsome pair of meat carvers. "Very nice, I am sure," said the general. "What do you want to change them for?" "Well, you see, sir," replied the man, "I would rather have a knife and fork of the size to eat meat with." --Edinburgh Scotchman. The Mornmg After.

Js Adorned With Garlands of Colorful Blossoms f v GARDEN TYPE IN EVIDENCE Name Assigned to Variety With Drooping Brime--Picturesque Fashion Fa. vored for Country Wear-- Duvetyn In UmellgM. As the summer advances hats grow larger. The small hat Is always popular, both with the American woman and the Parisienne, but the mode must be varied throughout the year, declares a prominent fashion writer. Consequently a fair proportion of ltfrfee hats lo always shown, but midsummer is the logical season for them. The efforts of the milliners to populartze the more dressy, picturesque styles have met with great success. Midsummer models are of lace, organdle, bright colored swiss muslins, tulle, taffetas, ginghams and, of course, some straws. The fact that more fabrics than straws are used is due to two causes--^the Parisienne has never considered the all-straw hat ns becoming as one in which a soft fabric Is introduced, and the difficulty of obtaining straw. The high cost of straw braids, together with their scarcity, is making it practically necessary for the Paris milliner to economize In the quantity used. Sprin* hats were gay. Those for summer are gayer. Summer time means flowers. So, of course, we have the flower hats. Not the slightest bit of care appears to have been taken In trlmmifig them, yet we know by the beauty they so subtly express that they represent the greatest care on the part of those who are real artists In this line. ' « Like Misty Gardens. Dosens of different sorts of flowers are on a single hat Milliners appear to have a penchant for tumbling them haphazardly over the crowns, to trail onto the brims in the order that they happen to fall. They frequently swathe their miniature flower gardens in veiling. Both milliners and dressmakers have taken to softening bright colors by covering them with airy bits of tulle. Perhaps they got the Idea ol covering the colorful flowers with blue-gray net from the gardens all misty with dew In the early morning. Certainly the effect recalls such a picture. Lewis of Paris shows very pronounced floral garnitures on widebrimmed, large-crowned taffeta hats. Not only do these have their garlands of flowers, but they also have the ribbon bridle or throat latch as an added bit of coquetry. Large hats trimmed with veils are very much in evidence. Long scarf veils delicately embroidered and bordered are draped crosswise on trlcorn hats. The flowing scarf end is left to hang from one side. The big coolie hat is again being used, and is especially Interesting and becoming when made with a transparent brim developed from horsehair braid. M^ny cootie brims in combination with close-fitting headbands and turban crowns of taffeta are noted. Taffeta and Straw. Taffeta In combination with straw Is a big feature. Broad-brimmed sailor shapes covered with taffeta, have the brim edged with straw and sometimes are trimmed with large petal ornaments made of taffeta and bound at the edge wltlf straw braid of matching or contrasting hue. ' Marie Croset shows veryI smart semitailored hats of tuffeta entirely covered with little lines off satin die ribbon. This makes a hat whicb is simple and at the same time elegant. This house also exploits large black straw hats faced with colors, such as klug's blue and emerald green. About the crown and falling over the brim are lightly placed draperies of black chanfcllly lace and the crown is banded With a narrow ribbon in the bright color of the underbrim facing. This makes a very picturesque hat. Combinations of straw and ribbon frequently are seen among new hats. Special favorites are those In sailor shape where the brim is trimmed with broad strappings of straw braid through which a wide ribbon passes to form the garniture. Talbot makes a ^strong feature of this type of hat, which Is perfectly lovely In white •straw trimmed with navy blue taffeta ribbon. Hats, like dresses, have sashes, and the sashes are also veiled. The ribbon is crushed and run through a tubing of veiling much narrower than the ribbon. ' A large coterie of hats have come to be known as garden hats, not because anybody ever wields the rake or the trowel in one of them, but because the drooping brim, picture type of country hat needed something in the way of a name that brought with It a vision of lovely old gardens and of times when women dressed in keeping with their surroundings. Petal Ornaments Popular. While It is doubtful If the** are many women who would like to return to the days when we spent our time in the occupations which were considered purely feminine, such as1 ordering our households and watering our rose bushes, the memory of oldfashioned days always has a certain charm, and we still like to dress ourselves in this picturesque fashion when in the country. Lovely things are done with organdies and straws. Drooping brims of black milan are topped by puffy crowns of pink organdie. Here we see the hard-working petal again. Apparently not at all weary from playing its Important role In fashions this summer, made of pink muslin, it flutters around the crowns of such hats. K.'

Since smocks have been practically adopted Into the sweater family we. see more and more sets consisting of this type of waist, copied from the dress of the peasants of France, with hats to match. Having these overblouses that match the hat is an excellent idea, for everybody knows how difficult it is to get a sweater and hat that look as If they bore any relation to one another. Now that smocks of materials, including duvetyn. tricoiette and angora, and many sweaters are so much like blouses, one may easily masqu*ade as the other. From Paris comes a smock of white gabardine--not the lightweight gabardine such as Is used for suits, but a heavy quality like coat materials. It is made to give the effect of a panel both back and front by means of bright scarlet leather bands running from the bottom of the blouse in front over either shoulder to half way down the back. The leather has a perforated design revealing the white. The same Idea is carried out In tiny trimming buttons, which are covered first with white, then with the perforated leather. Accompanying this is a large hat of rough white straw banded with scarlet leather. • Turquoise Blue and Rust Duvetyn sets are much in favor. In some, two colors are combined. Tun quolse blue and rust color make a lovely splash of color on a country landscape. A set worked out irf these shades consists of a small round hat with on uprolling brim, faced with rust colored faille silk. The blouse Is of the blue with contrasting cuffs.
