You want good crops while t prices are good. Where crops have been made without Potash ? -? . ' , and now gray lands are needing it and one per cent of Potash ] will help the crops on red land. Potash is a medicine; it wards off diseases and keeps the plants healthy and strong and when a plant is healthy and strong it will grow and blossom and fruit and you'll have ' \ ; abundant crops. There is as much difference between a healthy ] plant and a sickly plant as there is between a healthy pig and >, a sickly pig, so far as profitable returns are concerned.

It is customary in China, when the number of children?daughter* preponderating?begins to exceed the family, income, to name the latest comer "Enough." Acting upon this superstition, the Lees, a mative Christian couple, presented their sev enth child for baptism. v> ... "What is her name?" inquired the missionary pastor. >. "Enough!" answered both parents in ici viu uiuav.K* . "That will never do!" the pastor frowned. "Think of a more fitting name!" But Mr. and Mrs. Lee were smitten with stage fright and could think of nothing. The Bible woman siting near whispered: 'Call her Dorcas!" So Dorcas she was hastily named. But fancy the dismay of Mr. and Mrs. Lee when they discovered that Dorcas, translated into the native dialect, is identical in sound tvith the Chinese words, "Many More!" The Swiss Government has accnowledged formally the sovereignty ind independence of Finland. - V >
