I was very fond, thnt he wns to be our

who rose to greet me nnd kissed him

Triple Tone Electric Bell.
Three scpnrate nnd distinct sounds
are given by nn electric bell which op
erates on ordlnnry lighting current by
meuns of n transformer. In the home
the bell enn be connected with push
buttons Instnlled nt three different
doors front, kitchen nnd side, for ex--ample.
When one button Is pressed
a clear ring results, when the second
Is operated a buzz Is produced, nnd
when tho third button Is pushed a
combination buzz nnd ring results. In
the office or shop this bell will prove
most useful, since It can be used to
call three different persons without
necessitating them to count the num
ber of rings, as must often be done
when the customary signaling Is em
ployed. ThlB bell has no contact
po'luts to burn out nnd no baherles
to replace.
English Women Baying Farm.
Women In England are buying their
own farms or their own truck and gar
den spnees In 'rather conspicuous num
bers. And tills Is nil an outcome of
the tremendous work done by women
on the land during the war. The gen
eral feeling Is that there will not he
much room for the common female
fnrm lafiorer as time ndvnnees, hut for
the woman who has n little money and
who looks upou farming ns her pro
fession and her life work there Is ex
cellent opportunity In thli direction,
rn the first plnce, on account of the
compact location of the garden spaces
nnd the cities In England transporta
tion of foodstuffs Is easy, Tjen gar
den truck and flowers do grow abun
dantly and profusely there, and always
find ready markets.
The Forgetful Parson. ,
Field Marshal Sir Henry Wilson telts
an amusing story of an old West coun
try pnrson who had to hold two serv
ices, one In his own church nnd one
In the church over the moor.
On arriving nt the latter church he
got Into the pulpit and suld he wns
awfully sorry, but he had forgotten
to bring a most admirable sermon
Which he had written.
"Luckily." he continued, "ns I came
across the moor, I remembered n beau
ful story, which I will tell you In
place of the sermon. Er-er well, dash
it, I've forgotten that, too?"
Churches' Wenthervanes.
Weuthervnnes seem to date from
early times. According to Ducnnge, the
cock was originally devised as nn em
blem of clerical vigilance. The lnrge
tnll of the cock wns adapted to turn
with the wind. Many churches have
for a vane the emblem of the saints
to whom they ore dedicated. St. Pet
er's Cornhlll, London, Is surmounted
with n key, St. I'eter having the keys
of heaven nnd hell. St. Laurence has
for n vane a gridiron, and St. Laurence
at Norwich has the gridiron with the
holy martyr extended upon the bnrs.
A gilt ship In full sail is the vane upon
St. Mildred's Church In the Poultry.
St. Michael's, Queenhithe, has a ship,
the hull of which will hold n bushel
of grain, referring to the former traffic

Wouldn't Give Up Easily.
Mother wns to entertain company,
so Billy was put to bed earlier than
usual. Billy resented this, and as an
excuse said he didn't like to hnve the
women see him In bed when they went
upstairs to lay aside their wraps.
Mother explained that as the women
' lived near by and because It was such
a warm nigiii me giiesis wuuiu cuiuc
without hats or coats. It looked like
bed for Billy, but as a lust resort be
said, "Oh, but, mother, surely they will
