A tourhin;r lllllt' incident about a [st-Loon Schoolboy who wrote. to the King regarding his school uttr-udance A, medal was related at. a recent meeting “of the London County Council. The Edutation (Zormuittee had pro- posed that the practice of awardng medals for regular and punctual attend- ance should be discontinued, but the Progrezsivm were successful in moving that the proposal should be sent back, and furthcr. that the. committcc should consider the possibility of extending the mcdal system. During the debate it was pointed out that theso medals arc an (-xce‘cdingly popular institution in London schools. Queen Victoria allowed her effigy to ap- pear upon them, and quite recently King Edward gave a special sitting for a like purposc. Consequently the award of medals has the very highest appro- val. The system was started in 1888, and ‘ in that year 6,000 medals were distribut- ed. Last year no fewer than 57.442 scholars earned them. Therefore, E‘s. medal system must exercise a marked influence upon the attendance returns. Mr. Hastings Jay mentioned a boy who was competing for his seventh me- dal, but lost it through falling in the playground and breaking his leg. The lad felt it so keenly that. he actually wrote to the King that he had lost his medal. Mr. Jay, apprehensive lest othm‘ little boys might do the same thing. up- pealed to the Council to stop the system. k“ MEDICAL AUTHORITIES Say that eight persons out of ten suf- fe“ at. some time or other from piles. Whether the piles are bleeding or pro- truding, or itching or “blind,” Zam- Buk gives immediate ease. ' Mr. Neil Devon, \Vebwood, Ont., suf- fered with piles eight years. A few boxes of Zam-Buk cured him. He since says: "i have had no return of the trou- ble. so that I know i am permanently cured.” Zam-Buk cures Cuts, Chappcd llands, L’lcers, Burns, Sore Legs, Abscesscs, Poisoned Wounds, Boils, Eczema and all skin troubles.
