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.

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!

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.

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.

"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.” The daintiest qualities in linen Handkerchiefs for women as well as for men are now being shown at DORR’S.
