Now and then we hear of a woman who is sole owner and pro prietor of a goisl farm, ami 1 have yet to hear of one that ia not making a succtra of It. It does seem that when women enter these fields of endeavor, that have al ways been mon* or less monopolized by men, they succeed. 1 don’t say that all women would «ucceed in such work, but it l<s>ks as il only thrifty women venture out of woman’s accustomed «pliers. Tlicee san»* women would make a Niiccess of managing a home, in fact, some <>l them do l»>th. Surely there's no more commendable work for u woman than managing a home, yet some of them get an appetite for a business career, or an independent career, as they call it, and the desire overbalances the home-making instinct. Others are forced to take up und con tinue the work of depart«*d husbands and since such a lot may fall to any wife or mother, it is the duty of the I iiim - band w hile alive U> make tin* wife his business partner ami confidant. lie should acquaint her with the workings of his business affairs, discuss with her tlie problems that come up regarding the farm work and other questions that per tain to the family income. This not only ••liable« tier to take up the work and continue it when it liecomew nece»- sary, but you will often find that «he can offer valuable suggestions. Il also makes her (eel that «lie has an interest 1 in the financial affairs rd tiie home, the bread-winning end, and she is more likely to is* fully considerate when economic measure« are ncceMiary. In some cases the businesa instinct is more keen in the woman than in the man, and I have known instance« where it was the woman’s intuition that made which are kept s<*rupulo<t»ly dean, ami there are always ferns and flowering plants on display. Mr. Otto has l**cn i established in thia shop for nearly a I year, and Mr. Arnold ha* recently joined him, having been in the employ of Chester's Barber Shop for some time previously. They have baths in con- auction, ami specialize in modern hair- cutting. They find busineas ia satis- factory. the larm go right. The mother instinct in women is gissl when applied to farm Tliey like to lie stor’k and crofM. inotlierad. I mean by this that loving ••are will toll when applied to tlie care of stock and crop«. I visited a farm one day anti found the man at the barn grinding tools, and the wile in the field driving a riding gang plow. 1 don't mean to make the wife that kind of a partner. I mean a partner ill the headwork—two heads are I always liettor than one. Hometimes the burden of household duties become tire- ! some and the woman longs for a change. Few women have the strength or capa- j hility to divide their energies between home-making and business affairs, ami wliere the home woman ventures into | other work for «ake of diversion, it is ax a rule, at the ex|H*nse of her family’s welfare. T<x> iniicli time and study can- i not lie given to tbe training of Ixijs and ; girls. By letting your wife share your i buxines« phinning and manageioent, yon will relieve the monotony of household duties, satisfy that hankering for di- ' version ami gain valuable axsistanre and helpful sympathy in your own work. ‘ Make your wife a partner—it pays in more ways than one.—A. W. H. farmer Hope of Nation. We maintain that farming is, and should Is*, one of the most dignified professions in the world, and that the farmer is the hope of this nation.

F.. for Cardiff. Two days out front St. John's tbe Vigilant expe rienced terrific weather, and on the fifth day she sent SOS calls, the cap tain fearing she would founder. Tho Holland-American liner Ityndam pick ed up the signals and proceeded to her assistance. The captain and twelve of the tug’s crew were taken off by the Ryndam, which was bound for Rotterdam, but three men refused to leave. They were tbe second mate, Robert Ferguson, a Scot; the third engineer. Thomas Walsh, an Irishman, and an American, John Smith, a fireman. Tuklngcontrol of the tug, these three men overcame tremendous difficulties and actually succeeded In bringing her within sight of tbe Irish coast, where they were picked up by a British pa trol vessel. Ferguson was locked in tho wheelhouse and the other two In tbe engine room. The terrible weather prevented them moving, and they re mained at their posts for fifty hours without food, wster or sleep. Several parts of the tug were smashed In the gale. Including tbe shaft of tbe dynamo In tbe engine room. This caused tbe tug to be in total darkness by night and added to the horrors of the situa tion. The taking off of the crew of the Vigilant by the Ryndam was reported by cable from Rotterdam. of experience is needed to avoid the pit- ■ falls and dangers.
