PETER AND THE PRINCES.
Peter lived with his father and mother
on a small farm, and while they were
not rich, they were far from being poor.
Peter's father was named Mtcphen, and
his mother's name was Agatha. They
loved their son very dearly, of course,
slid wanted him to marry a gfrl who
would be a suitable wife for one in Ida
aliit lon of life.
Agatha bad picked out a girl, the
daughter of a farmer not far from them,
who was strong and could do as much
work in a day as a man. Peter did not
want that sort <*? a girl for his wife.
“I want a wife that will love me and
that 1 can love.” he told his mother;
'she must b* good to look upon as well
it* strong The King's daughter would
please me very much. '
When Agatha and Stephen heard this
tUe> threw up their hands and exclaim
ed ‘The Princess Adela a wife for you.
why,, »et». you must be mud to think of
Nut'll a thing!*'
Put Peter only shook his head and
said: ”1 do not expect she would look
at a poor toy like me, but 1 want her
tor my wife, and If 1 cannot win her 1
will not Wed anyone."
That night, w hen l’etcr was asleep, his
mother ami father sat before the fire
1 1 Iking ovtT what had happened. T <k>
not se« why the boy should not have
the princess if he warns her.” said Aga
tha. *T could, perhaps, teach her to
took and do the work as Peter's wife
should.”
Put Stephen said “No.” she would
never do for Peter's wife; he must wed
m girl who knew how to cook, and he
was sure the princess knew nothing of
that art.
Now it happened that about the same
time that Stephen and Agatha were
talking to Peter about taking a wife the
king and queen were talking to the
pi lin ens about a husband.
"You shall marry the prince who lives
In the kingdom adjoining ours.” said the
king, "and when you are married that
will join the two kingdoms, making you
queen of the largest kingdoms in the
world,”
"But 1 do not love the prince." said
the prince*.* *q want a man who will
| love me for myself alone; not because
of my wealth. The son of Stephen and
Agatha on the farm down tht road
would please me very much; he is strong
and handsome."
”i should think you were tTaay.” atld
her father. "If t did not think you were
silly to think of such » thing What
you need is a husband who can rule
with you nnd care for this kingdom
when we are gone and you are queen."
”1 know. I know.” said the little prin
cess, sighing "It Is of no use to think
of Peter for a huahund; he is so big and
handsome and is so wise he would never
look at me, much less think of unking
me his wife, but If I cannot have him 1
win remain single all the days of my
"\ot have you, n kings daughter.”
**ld the king, looking ve»\ nngv>; "what
do you mean by saying that?**
”\\ by. Petgr wants a wife thst can
cook nnd care for his farm and T am »o
Ignorant of all that Is useful In the world
that 1 know, of course, hr woud net
have me for a wife And besides, 1
hnrtl th<t Stephen «n.l Aretha „aul th.t
n princes* was not u wife they wanted
for thflr son "
That night after the princess had re
tired, the king and qn*< n tilled over
what had happened lust - <t, "hen and
Agatha had done, ami t!. king said: "I
etu pose we better let her have Peter if
she wants hint I can teach him how
to care for a kingdom,**
i "First 1 will teach liar to cook,” said
INDOOR SPORTS - - By Tad
\irrßi* 1 1 H r■k Imi nVI *JL I
' er ms. EAWJMEB ,
the queen. *T will show Stephen and
Agath i that our daughter can do all
they think she cannot. The very idea
of saying that she would not do for the
wife wanted for their son.”
So the princes* was taught to cook,
and one day the king's carriage stopped
in front of Stephen's door and a servant
carried a beautiful cake which the prin
cess had baked, into the house, saying
that it was for Stephen and Agatha
from tile princess.
The next day Stephen said to Peter,
“if the princess can make such a beau
tiful cake, she should be able to make
bread, perhaps after all she will make
you a good wife ’’
So Peter dresed himself in his best
clothes, which wm a rod velvet suit and
took his white horse from the stable and
rod© to the king’s palace.
When the queen saw’ him coming she
exclaimed: "IMe come* a prince. I can
tell by the way he rides; no one but a
prince could hold his head so well or
ride as he does."
When Peter reached the palace the
king and queen were outside to greet
him. ‘‘Well, ovou If he is not a prince,
lie looks like one/ said the queen!
"nnd If the princess wants him. 1 am
willing.”

THE HOE AND" ThFdOUGH
The man with the hoe has been ree
-o*olnert by every age and nation a*
a fundamental source of prosperity,
and while our literature abounds with
encomiums in his behalf, the half has
never been told.
Out the man with the dough Is
equally as important at this period of
our growth and development as the
man with the hoe. Attempts have
been nuule to dl 1 credit him, hut when
It cornea to building factories and rail
roads and large Industrial enterprises
which are necessary to our prosperity,
we must fnre the man with money
and our destinies as a nation of In
fluence njid power are largely In his
hands.
It takes the man with the hoe and
the man with the dough combined to
make civilisation, and one is Inter
dependent upon the other.
Co-operation among farmers In
gathering, grading and marketing
their products will enable them to se
cure better prices.
Look Through the Merchant's Eyes
If the manufacturer who seeks a
market for his product will look through
the eyes of the retailer his advertising
course will be clear.
When the retailer advertises he uses
the newspapers of his home city—because
they bring him business.
It is over the counter of this same re
tailer that the manufacturer must look for
his sales.
If his advertising is in the newspapers,
he and the retailer are doing the kind of
“team work” that will bring greatly in
creased business.
Manufacturers with advertising prob
lems are invited to address the Bureau of

lishers Association. World Building, New

"FINANCING THE WAR”
REPORT GIVEN BY A
NATIONAL AUTHORITY
Stockholm.- The Hvenskii Paghladet
publishes a report by Professor Gustav
Gassel, a national authority, •>* “Fi
nancing the War.” He says in part:
“Those countries which are big credit
ors of th© neutrals have naturally a
special stvength in war time. In that ma
turing liabilities are readily taken up.
This is most distinctly seen in the case
of England, which under normal cir
cumstances invests between $60,000,000
and $76,000,000 per month abroad, this
being th© normal form for the applica
tion of the surplus of England's balance
against foreign countries. Should Eng
land now. as might be th© case, cease to
make these Investments the correspond
ing amount would stand at h«k monthly
disposal.
“This explains the excellent financial
strength of England just now. Eng
land is the capitalist par excellence who
can live on the returns of her capital,
and who, thanks to her resources, can
force the whole world to contribute to
ward* her war expenditure.”
