The meeting of Stanley and Livingstone at Ujiji was as unlikely an occurrence as could have hap- pened, and, along with many of the earlier events in Livingstone's life, serves to show how wonderfully an Unseen Hand shaped an guarded Us path. Neither Stanley nor the gentleman who sent him had any personals interest in Livingstone. Mr. Bennett admitted frankly that ke was moved neither by friendship â- or philanthropy, but by regard to his business and interest as a jour- nalist These were the very unromantic notions, with an under-current probably of better quality, that were passing through his mind at Paris, «a the 16th of October 1869, when ke sent a telegram to Madrid sum- asoning Henry M. Stanley, one of the "own correspondents ' of his paper, to "come to Paris on impor- tant business." It is very mysterious that he was •ot to go straight to Africa â€" he was to visit Constantinople, Palestine, and Egypt first. Then, from India, kc was to go to Zanzibar; get into the interior, and find him if alive; When Stanley Found David Livingstone obtain all possible news of his dis- coveries. It was not until January 1871 that Stanley reached Zanzibar. To organize an expedition into the in- terior was no easy task for one who had never before set foot in Africa. To lay al' his plans with- out oivulging his object would, perhaps, have been more difficult it it had ever entered into any man's head to connect the New York Her- ald with a search for Livingstone. But indomitable vigour and per- severance succeeded, and by the end of February and beginning of March, one hundred and ninety- two persons in all had started in five caravans at snort intervals from Bagomoio for Lake Tanganyika, two whitt men being of the party be- sides Stanley, with horses, donkeys, bales, boats, boxes, rifles, etc., to an amount that made the leader of the expedition ask himself how such an enormous weight of material could ever be carried into the heart of .Atrica. They marched slowly, with vari- ous adventures and difficulties, until, by Mr. Stanley's reckoning on the 10th of November but by Living- stone's earlier), the. were close on Ujiji. Their approach created an extraordinary excitement. First one voice saluted them in English, then another: these .vere the salutations of Livingstone's servants, Susi ana Chuma. By and by the Doctor him- self appeared. ".\s 1 advanced slowly towards him," says Mi. Stanley, "l noticed he was pale, looked wearied, had a grey beard, wore a bluish cap with a faded gold band round it, had on a red-sleeved waistcoat and a pair of grey tweed trousers, I \vould have run to him, only I was a coward in the presence of such a mob â€" would have embraced him, only he, being an English- man, I did not know how he would receive me; so I did what coward- ice and false prid? suggested was the best thingâ€" walked deliberately to him, took off my hat and said, 'Dr. Livinstone, I presume?' 'Yes, said he, with a kind smile, lifting his cap slightly. 1 replace my hat on my head, and he put.- on his cap, and we both grasp hands, and 1 then say aloudâ€" I thank God, Doctoi, I have been permitted to see you.' He answered, 'I feel thank- ful that I am here to welcome you.' " -From "The Personal Life of David Livingston," by William Garden Blaikie.

Yet there are many who believe that delphiniums are hard to grow. Ths is not the case provided the garden does not lie too i:ir south. This perennial does not thrive in high temperature, and in soil that becomes too warm: and although delphinium are grown as far south as Virginia, down there they are treated more as annuals. But in gardens in the general latitude of New York Cityâ€" or farther north â€" with proper care they really thrive. Seed should be obtained from a reliable source. While there are many strains of hybrid delphinium on the market, one of the most satisfactory â€" especially here in the East â€" is the Pacific Giant. .\\- though delphinium can be so>vn in spring, .\ugust is the preferred time. Fresh seed from the current summer's crop is available then and gives a much higher percentage of germination. â-  * * + If a coldframe is available it is necessary only to make certain that the soil is finely worked and con- tains some humus and sand. Seed is sown sparingly in drills, six inches apart, and is covered hghtly with about an eighth of an inch of fine soil. The seedbed is then sprinkled with water and the cold- frame shaded with burlap or slats. If the bed is not allowed to dry out, seedlings should appear in ten to fourteen days. These are thinned to three or four inches. VV'hen the weather is particularly warm, tlie slats are left on to provide some shade. • * * If the gardener does not have a coldframe, the seedbed is made in the garden and the same procedure followed. The location should not be hot and dry. The young plants will need little attention until next spring, except for a mulch of salt hay or straw after the ground has frozen. The seedlings will lose most of 'heir foliage, if not all, during the winter but this is quite normal. • * » The following .'\.pril or early May the young plants are ready to be moved to the nursery bed or to their permanent places in the garden. Some of them wilt flower durin;j the late summer or fall but it will take another year for them to come into their own. On the other hand it is possible to bring the .August seedlings into bloom the following June â€" if a Coldframe is used. The secret is not to let the plants become dormant their first winter. With the arrival of cold weather the frame is cover- ed with glass and opened for ven- tilation only on warm days. If the frame is not blanketed with snow during the coldest days from December to February, it is cov- ered with hay or straw. The sides should be banked with dirt, too. • * * In late February or early March (depending somewhat rut the weather) the insulating cover is re- moved and the glass opened again on warm days. By mid-.\pril, the plants should be well developed. They can be moved to the border, where they should produce spikes of bloom from five to six feet tall. » ♦ * However, before the seedlings reach the transplanting stage, their permanent sites should be made ready. Delphiniums are not too fussy about the type of soil, as long as it is well prepared and has good drainage. Soil is dug to a depth of at least eighteen inches and a liberal amount of humus (well-rotted man- ure or compost) is incorporated plus an ample dressing of bone- meal. By the time the plants are moved the soil should be settled and tirm. » » * Young plants are placed eigbteen to twenty-four inches apart in the border and are usually more effec- tive if planted in groups o£ not less than three. For exhibition bloom, spacing should be at least three feet; growing in straight rows as- sures greater success. * » » When shifting delphinium, care should be taken to move them with as much earth as possible around the roots. If they are not disturbed in the process, the plants will suf- fer almost no setback, and start to thrive immediately in their new location. They are set in their holes with the crown at ground level and then firmed gently into the soil with the feet, * « * Young plants of named varieties are available from most leading delphinium growers either in spring or fall. However, for the price of two or t'nree plants the gardener can obtain a packet of about 200 seeds which will produce a wide range of colors. Of course, when the plants are well established they can be greatly increased by division or cuttincs. How Union Nonsense Wrecked A Plant One of the most shocking cases of irresponsible, short-sighted and stupid union leadership is the strike of .50 ofifice Avorkers at ClL's Wind- sor plant. The plant produces chlorine, c.iustic soda, ammonia and ?alt. The operation is a continuous process. Shut down for more than six hours, the 3.300 cells in the svstem deteri- orate and can no longer be trusted to operate safely. Unions controlling transport in and out of the plant agreed to res- pect the office workers' pic'.<et lines. Because of the dangerous nature of the operation, the continuous process had to be stopped. .\ow â€" regardless of how soon '.he union settlesâ€" it will cost $250 000 to $-100,000 to rebuild the plant and it will be alfout two years before production can get back to nor- mal. .â- ^11 those facts about the gravity of a stoppage were clearly put to the union ler.dership. .^Dd what was the cause of this deliberate sabotage? Nothing but this minor and silly- demand : The ofiFice workers' boss ueniand- ed that pay increases be made on the basis of seniority, not ct merit. What but a weak or upset men- tality would want to substitute seniority for merit as the basis of reward.' Who with any sense of personal dignity would want to work in a place where merit was unrewarded and where age and mediocrity took control? CIL is to be commended for its courage in defending the rights of its employ- ees and for refusing to co-operate in a plot to shackle and degrade them. â€" From The Financial Post. There are still lots of good people in the world. You can see them envying those who are not good. I ANN€ ttlRST "Dear Anne Hirst: I am » woman in the early Stfs with two lovely chil- dren. For four years I've been engaged to a man who has two youngsters too. I've taken care of them in riy own home for the past three years and I have loved them like my own. "He seems not as much in love as he was. He takes me to a movie only every two weeks â€" and always to a western, which I hate. He says he can't afford to take me out often- cr. Yet -when he wants to go alone he finds a way. "Sometimes he gets mad and walks out â€" and I don't know why. And lately he does not say a word about our getting married. "I have given up all my friends except one, because he didn't like them. I o6ject to some of the friends he brings around, but al- ways defends them. "This one women friend I have left is older than myself. She says he is making a fool out of me . . .

Address her at : BOX 1, 123 Eighteenth Street, New Toronto, Ont. Q. How can I make brooms and mops last longer? .\. Don't let the brooms, brushes, and mops stand on their straws, bristles, and strings. Bore a hole through the handle of each, near the far enj. and insert the ends of a wire in each end of this hole, forming a loop for hanging. * * « Q. How can I treat scars that have resulted from pimples? .V. These scars usually will dis-. appear very soon if they are bathed with a solution of boracic acid, fol- lowed by an application of zinc ointment. * * * Q. How can I prevent deposit from gathering on the inside of the ttd kettle? .â- \. Boil two or three clam shells in the kettle occasionally. » * « Q. How can I remedy a tight shoe that binds at the toe? A. Wring a cloth out of hot water, fold it and lay it across the toe, while the shoe is on the foot. This will cause the leather to ex- pand and conform to the shape of the foot. « * » Q. How can I freshen stale pret- zels? A. Pretzels often lose their crisp- ness even when they are kept in a tin container. To bring back their " original crispness, put them in a moderate oven until they are heated j^horoughly.
