Yl drop in at Salter’s to-morrow and order a couple of suits. Then I can look after the insurance for my car and get through with the den- tist. Three birds with one stone won't be at all bad for me. * * * Wednesday—To-morrow I really must order Marie’s wedding present from Leway’s and so long as I am in that neighborhood I can easily run over to Salter’s to see about those suits I need. Then the den- tist will be handy. That filling is getting to be a nuisance. The in- surance simply must be looked after as well. To-morrow will be my busy day. * ok * Thursday—Tom phoned me to-day and asked me to drop down to his office soon to discuss that oil deal. No use letting it go too long. I'll see him to-morrow. On the way up- town I can get Marie’s present.

Australian Pests News comes from Australia of another triumph of science over nature. Besides Premier Hughes, Australia has two other pests—the prickly pear and the rab- bit. The first has had to battle both the others. His time has been divided between trying to let go the prickly pear and trying to catch the rabbit. Hitherto he has failed dismally either way. But now a scientist has come along and the great problem is likely to be solved. This scientist is train- ing the rabbit to eat the prickly pear. The rabbit in turn dies of stomach trouble. An American has gone over to inaugurate among the Australian rabbits an “Eat a Prickly Pear a Day” Week. D. B. MacR. Boys Shoes $4.00 & $4.50 W.L.

We who met last as lovers meet as friends. We may salute with formal clasp of hand And formal word. Our spirits un- derstand No less the invocation that ascends From hearts which taunting memory still rends Despite the efforts of our self-com- mand, When two have loved, only to find love banned, Pain’s not the only thing that never ends, How long shall we be able to deny With mere platonic niceties of phrase The unrelenting voices of the past? How long before there rings aloud the cry That even now resounds within and flays The farce of friendship never meant to last?
