Thfs fa the Year.
Raise your hat to the Glad New Year!
Raise your voice with a hopeful cheer!
Make a vow that while It stays
You’ll make the most of its glorious days,
And
What? That sort of resolve is old?
Sounds like a tale too often told?
You've made It every New Year’s day.
Then frittered the livelong year away?
Well, s’poslng you have? What’s that to
do !
With this particular year? It’s new!
New, you Grouch, not the same old kind
Of muddled-up year you’ve left behind!
New each day and each minute too!
New; each second Is fresh-laid, new!
New for the things you’ve left undone!
New for the races you haven’t run!
New for ambitions unachieved!
New for mistakes all unretrieved!
New for unfinished efforts too!
New for the things you mean to do!
Never one day In Its bill of fare
Is like another day anywhere.
And If a year can be fresh and new
Why in the dickens can’t you be too?
You can! So wash fro»m your care-stained

Of memory’s dirt the last small trace.
Put on Ambition’s garments bright.
Light your cigar with the Future’s light
And say to yourself: “The old year’s dead.
Bury It deep! I»ok right ahead!
Here’s a New Year laid out for me,
As full of chances as It can be,
So out of my way and let me go!
It’s up to me, and by Jlngs! I’ll show!"

HOW FELT HATS ARE MADE.
Tho Hair of Rabbits and Other Small
Animals is Used.
From the Electrical Record.
Hats .vere first manufactured In
England about 1510 and superseded
caps or soft headgear In the reign of
Queen Elizabeth. Wool was the ma
terial first employed In forming felt
hats, but In time, as Eurofftan trade
with America developed, the fur of tho
heaver, being finer and softer, came
Into use. hence the term beaver was
long synonymous with hat.
For about three centuries fine beaver
hats dyed black and prepared with
much skill formed the head covering of
the higher classes in Great Britain.
This headgear distinguished them from
the middle and humbler classes, which
continued for some time to wear tlsp
less expensive caps and bonnets.
Political and religious differences
have often been marked by the form of
hats. The Puritan of the reign of
Charles I. adopted the steeple hat, high
and narrow, with a broad brim and
devoid of ornament. The cavalier dur
ing the same era wor« a lower and
broader crown, with a feather stuck
on one side. The Quaker hat, low inj
the crown, with a broad brim and
plain, dates from the origin of the)
sect at the middle of the 17th century.
The history of hat manufacture in
this country dates back to the very
early colonial days. In 1662 the as
sembly of Virginia enacted a law of
fering 10 pounds of tobacco for every
good wool or fur hat made In the
colony. Delaware in 1753 offered a
prize of 40 shillings for the neatest
and best hat manufactured In the lower
counties. Carolina by 1767 had de
veloped a flourishing hat Industry, with
a large export trade to the Spanish
lslunds. Soon after the close of the
revolution the manufacture of hats had
become of great importance in Penn
sylvania, and from that time the in
dustry has continued to flourish.
Felt hats are made in a wide range
of qualities. The finest and more ex
pensive qualtles are formed entirely of
fur; the commoner qualtles use a mix
ture of fur and Saxony wool. For the
lowest kinds wool alone Is employed.
The processes and apparatus necessary
for making hats of fur differ also from
those required in the case of woolen
bodies, and in large manufactories,
especially in America, machinery is
generally employed for operations
which formerly were entirely manual.
Hatter’s fur consists principally of
the hair of rabbits (technically called
coneys) and hares, with some propor
tion of nutria, musquash and beaver's
hair, though the latter bos been for
many years extremely scarce, and gen
erally any parings or cuttings from
furriers are also used. Fifty years ago
the hatter beat his fur with a bow into
a triangular piece of felt, which, when
laid together by two straight edges,
assumed the shape of a cone. The felt
was next shrunk between cloths, which
were kept hot and wet by frequent
dipping Into kettle of boiling size, care
being taken to preserve the triangular
shape of tho felt.
Having been shrunk to about one
third Its original size or to proper di
mensions for a hat, the conical bag
was drawn over a block and tied
tightly at the point where the crown
spreads out Into a brim. The brim por
tion was next pulled and stretched into
shape with a special instrument. While
still on the block, the hat was dyed and
again washed, stiffened and dried. If
a long nap was desired the surface of
the felt was carded, while to obtain a
smooth finish it was rubbed with pum
ice stone. It was then ready to be
"trimmed"—that is, to have the band,
binding, lining and sweat band put on.
Beginning with the cutting of the fur,
these processes are now performed by
electrically operated automatic ma
chinery.
On the Punishment of Children.
Parents should remember that every dis
tressing, blood-curdling story to a child,
every superstitious fear Instilled Into Its
young life, and their mental attitude to
ward the child, their whole treatment ot
It, are simply making phonographic rec
ords Ifl Its nature which will be reproduced
with scientific exactness In Its future life,
says Orison Swett Mardin in Success
Magazine.
Whatever you do, never punish a child
when It Is suffering with fear. It Is a
cruel thing to punish children the waj
most mothers do, anyway; but to punish a
child when It Is already quivering with ter
ror, and especially when you are angry.
Is terrible.
The same principle applies to punishing
children In school, especially when they
are suffering with sensitive fear.
A Marked Man.
From the London Tatler.
The descriptive reporter of a certain
midland daily paper In describing the
turning of a dog out of court by order of
the bench recently detailed the occurrence
as follows; "The ejected canine as he
was ignomlnously dragged from the room
cast a glance at the judge for the purpose
of being able to Identify him at some fu
ture time.”
Had His Doubts.
From the Chicago Tribune.
"Come out west, old boy. and visit me or
<ny farm,” wrote the enthusiastic Kansar
man; "breathe the fresh air, eat young
onions, and get close to nature’s heart.”
"That sounds alluring," wrote the jadec
easterner, "but do you think nature woulc
let me get close to her after eating young
onions?”
A Race for Fun.
! From the Youth's Companion.
The younger Dumas la said to have thus
. passed judgment on the efforts of «

1 "Poor fellow, he Is always on a chas*
. after a Joke."
"And the joke always wins," Dumas ob

TEN MILLION* PEOPLE
IN THE CANADIAN
WEST BY 1920
"Toronto Star," Dec. 16th, 1910.
The prediction is made that before
1920 Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Al
berta and British Columbia will have
ten million people. It is made not by
a sanguine Western journal but by
that very sober business newspaper,
the New York Commercial. It is
based upon actual observation, upon
the wheat-growing capacity of the Ca
nadian West, and upon the prospects
of development following the build
ing of railways. The writer shows
how the position of leading wheat
market of the world passed from
Milwaukee to Minneapolis and thence
to Winnipeg. Canada's wheat-grow
ing belt is four times greater than
that of the United States, and only
five per cent of Canada’s western agri
cultural area is under cultivation.
There are 170,000,000 acres of wheat
lands which will make these Western
Provinces richer, more populous, more
dependable for food supplies than the
Western States can ever become. The
center of food supremacy will change
to Canada, and 25 years more will
give this country 40,000,000 popula
tion west of Ontario.
All these estimates of population
are in the nature of guesses, and must
not be read top literally. But the
enormous area of wheat-growing land,
the rapid construction of railways,
and the large volume of immigration
are facts which must be recognized.
They point to the production of an
ever-increasing surplus of wheat and
other cereals. However rapidly the
urban, the industrial and commercial
population of Canada may increase,
the increase of home consumption is
hardly likely to keep pace with that
of the production of wheat; for a sin
gle acre of wheat will provide for the
average annual consumption of four
people.
While production in Canada i3 thus
running ahead of consumption at a
prodigious rate, consumption in the
United States is overtaking produc
tion, and the surplus for export is
growing smaller year by year. It is
true that the limit of actual power to
produce wheat is as yet far away.
By methods of intensive cultivation,
such as prevail in France, the produc
tion could be greatly increased. But
with the overflowing granary of Can
ada so close at hand, it seems likely
that our neighbors will begin to im
port from us, turning their own en
ergies more largely to other forms of
agriculture.
It must be remembered that while
the Northern States resemble Canada
in climate and products, the resem
blance diminishes as you go south
ward. The wheat belt gives place to
a corn belt, and this again to semi
tropical regions producing cotton, to
bacco, cane-sugar, oranges and other
tropical fruits.
The man who secures a farm in
Western Canada at the present time
secures an investment better than the
best of bond of any government or
bank. It is no unusual thing for a
farmer in Western Canada to realize
a profit of from $5 to $10 per acre.
There are thousands of free home
steads of 160 acres each still to bo
had, and particulars can be obtained
by writing your nearest Canadian gov
ernment agent.
GOOD ADVICE.

IIILIPUTS HAVE A
KINGDOM OF OWN
King Blackfellow Rules Ovei
450 Subjects When “Gul
liver” Isn’t There.
From the Kansas City Star.
The tiny persons staging a miniatur*
circus at the New York Hippodrome en
tertainment in Convention hall are
called Lilliputians because they are
residents of the kingdom of Lilllpui
in Paris, Prance. Lilllput has a popu
lation of 476. It is ruled by King
Blackfellow, elevated to the throne be
cause he is said to be the only negrc
midget In the world.
But Lilllput has a Gulliver, too, ever
as Dean Swift's imaginative country
and when Gulliver is within the king
dom’s boundaries Blackfellow just sits
on his throne and Reuts—a king wijtlr
out power, bound with his subjects with
a long term contract to obey the direc
tions of M. Nicel Gerson.
Just now Blackfellow is master of af
fairs because M. Gerson is in America—
in Kansas City, notably.
Government Recognition.
"My midget city is recognized by the
French government," M. Gerson said
before his Lilliputian circus "went on”
last night. “It’s a city of tiny people
and tiny houses, tiny horses and dogs,
but with a big high fence. It has its
own market, its own theater, its own
Hippodrome, infact even a min
iature postofflee, to which the French
government has lent a canceling stamp
that prints ‘Kingdom of Lilliput.’
“Visitors pay a franc each to be ad
mitted to the kingdom of Lilliput, 20
centimes to see the Hippodrome and
the same for the theater. My midget
city is the training place for my trav
eling circus, which, by the way, is
booked to 1915.
”1 have been collecting the midgets
for three years, from all parts of the
world. Some are dwarfs—little bodies
with big heads—but they are not so
valuable as the perfectly formed mid
gets. In my city I have the widow of
General Tom Thumb and several other
American midgets. Most of the Lilli
putians are Burmese, however.
But Large Tempers.
"Contrary to what might be expected
the Lilliputians are persons of very
large tempers. The smaller the midget
the larger the temper, almost is a rule.
They are more jealous than operatio
stars, with whom I have also had
much experience. Why, in my midget
city the young woman in the choco
late shop looks across the six-foot
avenue at the girl selling flowers and
asks herself: ‘Why do I sell chocolates
when she sells flowers? I will protest.’
And she does. That’s the way it goes
oil all the time. If I had It to do over
again, I never would organize a mid
get company."
M. Gerson is distinguished witti
honors conferred by many foreign gov
ernments. He wears the emblem ol
Chavalier of Merit of France, given
him by Premier Clemenceau. He alsc
has medals showing appreciation ol
his "aid to science and art.” from the
president of Venzuela, the sultan ol
Turkey, the king of Italy and the gov
ernment of Bolivar. He has been the
manager of Sarah Bernhardt, Forbes,
Robertson and Coquelln. He speaks
nine languages and carries with him
two secretaries and a bookkeeper.

By Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound
Th? Change of Life is the most critical period of a
woman’s existence, and neglect of health at this time
invites disease.
- Women everywhere should remember that there is no'
* other remedy known to medicine that will so successfully
carry women through this trying period as Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, made from native roots
and herbs. “lere is proof:
Natick, MasSw—**I cannot express what I
i went through during the Change of Life before
I tried Lydia EL Pinkham’s Vegetable Com
pound. I was in such a nervous condition I
could not keep still. My limbs were cold. I
had creepy sensations and eould not sleep
nights. I was Anally told by two physicians
| that I had a tumor.
“ I read one day of the wonderful cures made
by Lydia EL Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound
and decided to try It, and It has made me a well
Iwoman. My neighbors and friends declare it
has worked a miracle for me. Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound Is worth Its weight in gold for women during this
period of life. If It will help others you may publish this
letter.”—Mrs. Nathan B. Greaton, 61 No. Main St., Natick,Mass.
ANOTHER SIMILAR CASE.
T!ornwallville, N. Y.—“I have been taking .
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound for j

a Abroid growth. i
“ Two doctors advised me to go to the j
hospital, but one day while I was away visiting,j
I met a woman who told mo to take Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. I did so and 1
know It helped me wonderfully. I am very
thankful that I was told to try Lydia E.l
Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound."—Mrs. Wm. Boughton,

The makers of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com
pound have thousands of such letters as those above —
they tell the truth, else they could not have been obtained
for love or money. This medicine is no stranger— it has
stood the test for years.
Tor 30 years Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound has been the standard remedy for
female Ills. No sick woman does justice to
herself who will not try this famous medicine.
Made exclusively from roots and herbs, and
has thousands or cures to Its credit. v
MgVa Mrs. Plnkham invites all sick women
to write her for advioe. She has

Backache in most cases is kidney
ache, and usually accompanied by ir
regularities of the urine. To remove
the pain and weakness, you must cure
the kidneys. Do, so
with Doan’s Kidney

Kennet, Mo., says:
“My condition was
terrible. I was in
bed for six weeks
and could not move
owing to intense pain
in my back. My feet

A Winning Fipht Against Disease.
We have the assurance or Dr. Woods
Hutchinson, writing in the World’s Work,
that the death rate from tuberculosis had
declined 10 per cent in the decade—which
.means a saving of 15,000 to 20,000 lives a
year in the United States. The infant
mortality rate Is falling with equal rapid^
lty which means annually a saving of 20,OCX
babies from those Herods of the twentieth
century—the little fevers of childhood;
dirty milk and overcrowding. The death
rate In all of our great cities is being
steadily beaten down to a lower and lower
level every year. The advance census re
ports show a lower national death rate
than ever before by hearly 10 per cent.
The fight against tuberculosis Is steadily1
becoming more and more a fight for bet-^
ter housing, more playgrounds, better
food and more of it, shorter hours of
work, decent and civilized shops, work
rooms and factories, higher wages, better
education in the laws of health. We have'
laid the bugbear of Its transmission by1
meat and milk, and are concentrating our
fire upon the place where the bacillus
breeds—the Infected house, or tenement
room. The place where we look for new
cases of tuberculosis is In the same house
with the old ones. We must break this
link in the chain if ever we are to wipe
out consumption. From SO to 60 per cent
of the children in the tenements living in
the same household with a case of tuber
culosis are found to be already infected
with the disease.
Couldn't Fool Aunt Jenny.
An illustration of the nice discrim
ination of some members of the col
ored race, with respect to white peo
ple, Is furnished by Booker T. Wash
ington, wilting in World’s Work. In
the old slavery days, when any of the
white folks were a little uncertain
about the quality of a new family that
had moved into the neighborhood In
which “Aunt Jenny’’ lived, they al*
ways had one last resource for de«
termining the character and status ol
the new family. When in doubt they
could always rely on old “Aunt Jen
ny.” After she had visited the new
family and returned with her report,
the question was settled. Her decision
was final. The old-fashioned house
servant always had a keen sense for
what was called the “quality.”
The Strength of Kindness.
T know a mother of a large family of
children who has never whipped but one
of them and that one only once, *sayd
Orison Swett Marden in Success Maga
zine. When her first child was born peo
ple said she was too good-natured to bring
up children; that she would spoil them,
a£ a lie would not correct or discipline
them? and would do nothing but love
them. But this love nas proved the great
magnet which has held the family togeth
er in a marveious way. None of these
children has gone astray. They have al!
grown up to be manly and womanly, and
love has been wonderfully developed in
their natures. Their own affection re^
sponded to the mother’s love and has be\
come their strongest motive. Today all
her children look upon “Mother” as th^
grandest figure In the world. She has
brought out the best in them, because
she saw the best in them. The worst dir
pot need correcting or repressing, for the
best neutralized it.
