' The Aberdeen Branch of the Women’s Institute held their fourth annual meeting at the home of Mrs. Donald Stewart on Friday, May 16 with an attendance of twenty members and vis- itors. The Scripture reading was given by Mrs. William Noble and the Lord’s prayer was repeated in unison. The secretary gave a review of the year's work and the Treasurer gave her report showing that the receipts for the year were $115.25 and the expendi- tures $112.41, of that amount over $25 being for sick and shut-ins and one dollar bank accounts for all new babies. Mrs. Davey, for Hospital committee re- ported that the goal is in sight and we can hope to have our Aberdeen room completely furnished within a short time. Two lovely pair of bath towels and two pair of face towels were added this month and two small pictures of Abergeen views for the walls were do- nate . Hymn 261 was sung and the meeting closed with prayer by Mrs. Fiddes. A. social half hour was spent. We Have in Jesus" and “God be with You Till We Meet Again†were sung. Mrs. Noble followed with a splendid poem, “People Will Talk.†containing some very good advice, to just keep on doing one’s best regardless. for people will talk and, if we do what is right we need pay__no attention to_anyone.‘ Community singing was then en- joyed._ The two hymns :‘ngatn Friend The ladies then enjoyed a rare treat in listening to Dr. Bell in an excellent address on “Modern Advances in Medi- cine".

VARNEY WIDE-AWAKE CLUB MET FRIDAY EVENING WOMAN AT HER BEST Joan Sutherland, English Authoress. Thinks Youth Has Many Drawbacks. The best years of a woman’s life. in the opinion of Joan Sutherland. the English authoress. are those between thirty and. forty; they are the years of- her greatest triumphs and enjoyment. Thus she consoles her younger sisters who may be apprehensive by the swift passing of time. for after all, youth has many drawbacks. ' “A woman of 30 is still young enough to enjoy and do everything permissible to a girl of 19. and she can usually en- joy and. do those things a great deal better.†continues Miss Sutherland in the columns of the flondon Daily Chronicle. “She can handle her fellow men and. women with ease, she can dir- ect her house or manage her affairs without making too heavy weather of it all. and she can certame take part in all sports and amusements ad acquit. herself well. “At 30 a woman can. and does enjoy life more than at 19; she has more ex- perience for one thing, and experience. if it costs a good deal, gives the best of all possible returns for what is spent to get it; she has a scale of values by which to test life, she knows disap- pointments can be soon forgotten, im- pertinence punished, and tiresome people ignored or snubbed. than at 20. for life has opened out, the horizons are wider. appreciation of beauty, of the arts. of all the wonderful gdoings and happenings of the world. is ‘keener, and with greater opportunities a woman can make a greater think of he: life. “A woman at 30 or onward for a de- twenties. “They were wonderful. but they were often painful. as well and. always they were haunted by the fear of growing. older; whereas a woman once the raw. ness of extreme youth is past. has learned how to make the most of her- self and. her personality.†.

Nelson Morris, Chicago packing mag- nate, was married to one Jane Aubert. He had a divorce action pending against her; while it was pending she got an engagement as a dancer on the stage of the Palace Theatre. Morris promptly filed suit against the theatre. The other day the court handed down a decision in his favor. The theatre was ordered to pay him 50,000 francs damages. on the ground that it could not legally employ his wife when he had forbidden ,her to appear on the stage.

Some special treatment by the ants hinders the germination of the seeds. though they are in a situ- ation .favorable to sprouting, and when the ants are prevented from having ac- cess to their granaries. germination takes place almost at once. Nothing is done to sterilize the seeds. for when it suits their purpose a portion of the stock is allowed to sproutâ€"but only under control. as a maltster sprouts his barley. sufficiently to cause the trans- formation of the seeds starch into the sugar. Root and stem are then bitten oi! and the seeds are dried in the sun for use as a food. Several Indian ants have similar habits, but the go-ahead agricultural ants of Texas and Florida have im- proved upon the ancient methods of the Old World harvesters; the Amer- icans not only harvest grain. but grow it first. On an area or about four yards in diameter surrounding the main en- trance of their nest they extirpate with their jaws every plant other than the so-called ant-rice. which thus becomes o'pure crop. and in the absence of all competition, flourishes. These ants have also a clear idea of the importance of facilitating transport by making broad. straight roads through the bush. and keeping them clear of encroaching weeds. Some of their grain stores are said to be at a depth of ï¬fteen feet be- low the surface. apparently in order that seeds shall not be subject to the influence that normally brings about germination. In galleries near the sur- face they can induce germination when they wish. These agricultural ants have two classes of workersâ€"major and minorâ€"the majors conspicuous owing to their big heads and capable jaws. with which they crack the hard grain for general consumption.
