Exports More Meat to England Than Any Other Nation. Under the head of "Ireland, the Provisioner of Britain,' the Trish Industrial Journal gives an inter- esting analysis on the subject of the food supply of 'the Islands. This is little understood, for the import- ance of Ireland as a provider has not been adequately recognized ev- en by Irishmen themselves, and the methods of organization, transport- ation marketing "-- distribution remain ed, despite the citak increase in the trade. Yet Ireland has a wider range of agricultural products than any other country supplying the British markets. In meat, Ireland leads all other countries for value of expost to Great Britain. The value of Irish meat of all kinds exported to and retained for consumption in Great Britain in 1912 was $85,000;000, and was greater than the value 'from any other country. "It is encdurag- ing to read. that Ireland is -- increasing her export of goods for consumption. - In 1904, when re- cords were, first kept, Ireland's ex- ports of food and drink amounted to $80,000,000. In 1912 they had ad- vanced to $115,000,000. This shows an improvement of nearly 50 per cent in the short space of eight . years. It is apparent from these figures that the development of Irish trade is mainly a question of sympathe- tic production, organized marketing improved transportation, handling, and advertisement. On the whole, the future of Treland is bright and promising, and the next ten years should see the Green Isle one of the most prosperous and progres- sive countries of Europe. "There was a young woman, a pronounced brunette," said Lord Kitchener of Khartoum, "who came out to Cape Town disguised as a lady nurse, her object being to keep her eye on her husband who held a billet under General Forrestier- Walker at the base. Later on he was unfortunately sent to the front, where still more unfortunately, he was forthwith picked off by a wan- dering Mauser bullet. The widow was such a victim to the luxury of unrestrained grief that it was ob- served her raven locks turned am- ber in a single night. Thus," ad- ded his Lordship with a malicious grin, "East and West do occasion- ally meet. The stricken widow on the Ganges puts ashes on her head as an indication of her bereavement and the widow from the banks of the Thames applied peroxide of hy- drogen as an advertisement of her uncontrollable sorrow."' PRIZE FOOD. Palatable, Economical, Nourishing. A-Western woman has outlined the prize food-in a few words, and that from -personal experience. She writes. '"'After our long experience with pe-Nuts, I cannot say enough in ite favor. We have used this food almost continually for seven years. ' "We sometimes tried other ad- vertised breakfast foods but we invariably returned to Grape-Nuts as the most palatable, economical and nourishing of all. '"'When I quit tea and coffee and began to use Postum and Grape- Nuts, I was almost a nervous wreck. I was so irritable I could not sleep nights, had no interest in life. "After using Grape-Nuts a short time I began to improve and all these ailments have disappeared and now I am a well woman. My two children have been almost rais- ed on Grape-Nuts, which they eat three times a day. 'They are pictures of health and | 2 have never had the least symptom of stomach trouble, even through the most severe siege of whooping sore they could retain Grape- "when nT eri. - we Grape fo Tived doc. tor bills, and has been, therefore, %& most ecenomical food for us.

Eat of the heart of a white child and you will be cured." The Recio woman wanted the blood of the little victim, too, because she thought it would cure her of tubercu- osis, and she told Pino to get th heart for himself. He then instructed his son how to kill. He told him that "from the jugular vein you can get the most blood," and showed him where it was. The little negro then invited the -white boy to go with him and eat man- goes. He told the judge how he had attacked his victim and. for fear he might escape had first cut off his legs. He then cut the jugular vein so he could get nd ylood for the Recilo wo- man and th ied to get out the heart so his. father a eat it. This horrible practice is due to the densest ignoran These voodoos do not kill-from passicn or for money, but because they are so ignorant that they think it will do them good to get the |, blood or the heart of a white child. Such ignorance reflects no credit on Cuba. There are at most only a few thousands of these voodoos or canni- bals 'in Cuba, and if foreign mission- aries have been able to convert the savage tribes of Africa from their can- nibalism, surely the government ought to be able to do the same here.

Southport Lady Left £51,000 for Use of the Crown, Southport's (England) " intestate spinster, Miss Amanda Cooper, has provided tht crown with one of its greatest windfalls. Her fortune of £51,000 will be paid to the trea- sury "for use of the ing.' The phrase is no empty form of words, says the --. Telegraph, for his on iges | does have actual control over all estates which re- vert to the crown in consequence of their owners dying without re- latives. If these crown windfalls are estimated over a long course of years it will be found that th Southport amount has several times been exceeded. On two occasions the treasury has raked in estates of no less than £200,000--one from a Cheltenham man in 1881, the other from a lunatic in 1884. In recent years the most remark- able instance of the crown's luck was £150,000 in 1905, from the es- tate of the romantic recluse of Folkestone, Captain George Lind- say Anthony Wilson, who changed his name, cut himself adrift from the world, and allowed his posses sions to take eare of themselves During 1913, mninety-seven es- tates were reported to the xing's and lord treasurer's remembrancer as having fallen to the crown in Scotland,. among them being that of Dean William Hatt of Dundee. The amount received in respect of estates during the year was £13,655.

The Deputy Minister of Militia is 'fa man of war from his youth up.' If long service is any justification for promotion -in the militia, he 1s to camp with his regiment at the age of ten. He comes of a mil- itary father. He is the son of Hon. J. B. R. Fiset, of the Canadian Senate. His father was Lieut.-Col- onel of the 89th Regiment of Ri- mouski, and he took his son with him to camp at the age of ten. Young Eugene Fiset went as & bu- gler, and his first taste of military. life decided his fate. He was caught with the military spirit. He loved, the life he stayed with it. At six- teen he was provisional second lieu- tenant in his father's regiment; in five years he was lieutenant; and (three years after that he was major. manent force of the Dominion, and' has qualified for the rank of Sur- geon-General.

Eugene Fiset, D.S.0. atches for bravery under fire. Col- one! Fiset be it known, is not only a military man; he is also a sur- geon; and it was as a succorer of the wounded that he won his honors on the veldt. The first occasion on which he was mentioned in the despatches was the first day at Paardeburg. The incident it thus told in the official report sent home by Colonel Otter: "The company, stretcher bearers exhibited great pluck, and five of them were among the wounded; three were wounded in carrying Capt. Arnold from the firing line, the: stretcher on which he was be- ing made a special object of atten- tion by the Boer marksmen. In connection with this incident I must note the courage displayed by Sur- Capt Fiset, who, when the stret- cher on which Capt. Arnold was being brought to the rear was stopped a short distance from the firing line by the wounding of one of the bearers, went forward and attended to Capt. Arnold, and subsequently assisted as bearer in bringing to the rear. Capt Fiset also attended to many of the wounded under fire during the Gazetted as Major. For this act of bravery, Capt.

After hav- ing been frustrated twice in an at- tempt to built on the top of a ward- robe in different rooms, it finally selected a-shelf in a wall-bookcase in the dining-room, half-filled with ornaments. Behind these it piled up a large nest; made entirely. of withered leayes, dry green moss, and a little hay. The nest was com- pleted in. less than three . 'days. week, but it did not desert its home and within a fortnight five eggs were 'laid and duly hatched, the window was left open and it was amusing for the next-fortnight watching them busily occupied in supplying the nestlings, first 'with flies and insects and later with worms, while butter stolen from the table was an irresistable luxury. Four weeks from the date when the robin began to sit, the feedglings were out of the nest, and after twenty-four hours in the house they were able to fly to shelter out-of- doors, and were soon lost to sight. ae Isn't This Romantic ?
