rue GUARDIAN. CHARLOTTETOWN

onsistent Bdkery Winner at Stanley Fair

,0ver the years at Stanley's century-old fair, I goodly crop of top awards for baking has come to Mrs. Frank Good, of Stanley, N.B. Recognized as an authority on cooking from rolls to doughnuts, Mrs. Good helped produce the Victory Cook Book still widely in use through the district. "Certainly it takes experience to be a good cook," says Mrs. Good. "but it also takes the best ingredients. For

example. you have to use a good reliable yeast to get top results for rolls and bread. I myself use Fleischmann's Yeast . . . Fleischmann's is so active and dependable."

That's where they all agree! Prize-winning cooks say that Fleischmann's Yeast simply has what it takes to give you perfect risings each time. No wonder it's been the favorite with Maritime women for over 80 years!

Strange But True

37 F. H. MacArthur

lest you think that engineers have no thought for the more or- dinary Joys of life, it is interesting to know that Charles Richardson. the resident engineer on the seuern Tunnel, which connects South Wales and the South and West of England. designed the first cricket bat with a can-spliced handle. when Zane Grey wrote his stir- ring novel. "The Last of the Plains- men," he rushed to the publishing house of Harper in the belief that he had a winner. Two weeks pass-l ed. Nothing happened. Unable to endure the suspense any longer. Grey went to New York and called on the publishers, They passed him his manuscript and said, "We are sorry, but there is noth- ing in lhis story to convince us that you can ever write fiction." This news actually caused Grey such a shock that he wept like I babe. ' His second novel. "Heritage of the Desert," occupied his next year. When it was completed. he offered it to l-larpers, who replied with the usual polite rejection slip. The writer begged the editor to take the script home and read it at night. A couple of days later, Grey returned. and the editor look- ed highly pleased. He said. "We're going to publish your story. Grey, but you have my wife to thank. not me. She thinks it great, and she should lcnow, after sitting up all night, reading it." "Heritage of the Desert" was an immediiite and immense suc- cess, but it took an editor's wife to see the gold that lay in its crude- ly written long hand. That was the beginning of a highly suc- cessful writing career, which plac- ed the once poverty stricken Zane Grey on the pinnacle of fame and fortune.

enacted in Germany and in Aus- tria, in the '90's in Norway, F.n- land. Great Britain, Denmark, Italy and France and from 1900 to 1910 in New Zealand, south Australia. Netherlands. Luxem- burg. British Columbia, Russia. etc. (see Llndlcy Clark, W. C. L. of the U. S. 11., etc.)

The first suit in which the play- er Sought protection under the defense of "common employment" occurred in 1841. Prior to 1841. there was not much pressure for compensation as railroads were only in their infancy. and coal production was just getting under way.

In the autumn of 1876, a gang of counterfeiters attempted to steal the body of Abraham Lincoln and hold it for a ransom amounting to one-fifth of a million dollars. Why? Because Ben Boyd, the mas- ter engraver who manufactured their counterfeit bills, had been caught red-handed and thrown into prison. The crooks knew there was no law in the State of Illinois making it a crime to steal a. corpse.

So, on November 6, boarded a train enroute coln's home town of Springfield. Illinois. Finally. they arrived at the cemetery. snwcd the padlock off the iron door of Lincoln's tomb. stepped inside. pried the marble lid off the sarcophagus and lifted the wooden casket half out. They never lzot any farther. how- ever. for one of their number. a stool-pigeon and a former secret- service agent. uttered a password

If you want a neatly made. Semi- circular. wicker basket. encourage Chimney Swifts to build in your chimney Provide them with u. dead tree from which they can snap of! little twigs as they fly put. Ind have no fire in your fireplace until some time in suzust when you are sure all the birds have left. Then put a Slick up 919 chimney and gently knock down the Swifts' beautifully varnished. wicker-work nest.

The spring arrival of these birds in settled Canada is about the third week in May. Since civiliza- tion came to America. they have shown a preference for our chim- neys, although they occasionally still use hollow trees as was their old habit. Now they are on the look-out for a vacant house. Our summer cottages are in great ,de- mand. so that when we are ready to move in we may find a family already in residence. All Swifts ask is to be left undisturbed in your chimney- but that means no fire for you. Unused tumble- down dwellings are very suitable. and frequently attract them. Chimney Swift.s' weak feet are no good for walking or even perch- ing; however, they are Just the things for clinging to bricks in a perpendicular position. Their rounded tails and in spines, and are used to jab into the bricks for support. Dozens of tiny twigs are carried down the chimney

to the scene.

Rushing into the tomb, they or- dered the thieves to surrender. Someone lighted a match. The partly removed shell could be seen by the flickering light, but not a trace of the crooks. Some- how. they had managed to make their escape.

Ten days later they were round- ed up in Chicago and brought back to Springfield to stand trial.

The group which tried to steal the body of Lincoln went to Juliet Prison for only twelve

months. Believe it or notl

What man attended school for 11 1-2 days. had 27 wives, became an outstanding leader of the 19th Century, built a great economic empire and made it blossom liloe a. rose?

That man was Brigham Young. The story of how he accomplished all these things is one of the few great dramas of American history.

It is interesting to note some of the highlights of this remarkable man's life: At the age of forty- four. he married four women on the same day. He had fifty-six children. twenty-one of whom were born of his two favorite wives. Once two of his wives presented him with children on the same day. His last. baby was born when he was sixty-eight.

Despite all this, Brigham Young was a religious. serious-minded man. who believed the old Tests- ment literally. In other words, he practiced polygamy. because Dav- id, Solomon, and others had set the example; Everyone is entitled to his opinion. but William Se- ward. who was Lincoln's secretary of state. declared that America never produced a greater states- man than the much married Brig-

and glued to an upright. inner wall and to each other. Generally a few of last sutumn's dead leaves are set in near the join. Four or five pure white eggs. unusually long and narrow. rest directly on the twigs. which have not only been stuck together, but glazed over with bird saliva. The saliva glands of Chimney Swifts are ex- traordinarily developed. it is this cement-like excretion which the Chinese find so palatable, tempting them to eat the nests.

Just about three weeks are re- quired for incubation. the parents taking turns on the nest. The one of duty spends the entire period in the air. They can be different- lated from Swallows by the con- tour of their bodiu (no tail show- ing ln flight). and the rapid heat- ing of their bow-shaped wings al- ternating with long. sweeping sails. On returning home with dinner of flying insects trapped in their wide mouths, they lift up their wings, butterfly fashion, and drop into their chimney.

when Swifts gather for fall migration. it is common for sev- erai hundred to use one chimney as a dormitory.
