She Knew Better. Mrs. Wiseman was one of those woâ€" men who always know. Whatever the subject under discussion, she had her own opinions, and made other peo- ple have them, too. . . . u “Joshua,” said she to her husband one evening. “I saw in this morning’s paper that old Mr. Bifi'er died on Satâ€" urday.” “It was a mistake," mumbled Josh- ua, as he bent: down to unlace his shoes; “he died on Friday.” “But the paper said Saturday," re- peated Mrs, Wiseman, firmly.

The reading lesson was on, and the word “furlough” occurred. Miss Jones, the teacher, asked if any little girl or boy knew the meaning of the word. One small hand was raised. “Furlough means a mule,” said the child. “Oh, no; it doesn’t,” said the teacher. “Yes, ma’am,” insisted the little girl, “I have a book at home that) says so.” Miss Jones told the child to bring the book to school. The next morning the child came armed with a book, and triumphantly showed a picture of an American soldier rid- ing a mule, under which was the cap- tionâ€"“Going home on his furlough." SmeE Eyegé?

Thousands of thankful mothers throughout Canadaâ€"many of them your own neighborsâ€"speak with the greatest praise of that splendid medi- cine, Baby’s OWn Tablets. Many mothers would have no other medicine for their little ones. Among these is Mrs. Albert Nie, St. Brieux, Sask., who says: “I have been using Baby’s Own Tablets for the past seven years and they have done my four children a world of good. I would not be with- dut them.” The Tablets are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams Medicine 00., Brockville, Ont. French Army Veterinarians Are Con- winced. Shamming‘ by war horses to avoid the battle front, discredited at first, seems now well established, says a Paris dispatch. French army veterinarians have found from close observation that certain horses fall most unaccountably ill when in bombarded regions. They lie down and seem too weak and ner- vous to move, or 'go lame. When they are sent back to the veterinary camp in the rear, in a day or two they are all right again. As evidenced by an advertisement which appeared in last week’s issue, the Toronto Fat Stock Show are giv- ing special attention to farmers and breeders, and are offering many hand- some prizes for classes where stock must be bred, fed and owned by the exhibitors. This is work along the right lines and should bring out a good entry. This has happened in so many cases that it has become a matter beyond dispute that the animals sham sick- ness‘ to get away from a spot where they have to do strange work under strange conditions and where con- stantly horrible things make terrify- ing noises. “Yes, your honor.

Attending to Business. “You say the ofiicer arrested you while you were quietly minding your own business?’ “You were peaceably attending to your own business, making no noise or disturbance of any kind ?" “None whatever, sir.” “It seems very strange.

Yox Our line was wearing thin. Half- way to the third trench we were re- inforced. The ground in our rear was covered with our men. All at once came a change. The German artillery in front ceased firing, and the next second we saw the reason why. In the trench ahead the German troops were pouring out in black masses and advancing toward us at a trot. Was it a counterâ€"attack? Then, as sudden- ly our own artillery ceased firing and* the mystery became plain. The Ger- mans were approaching in columns of four, officers to the front, hands held in the air; and as they came closer we could distinguish the steady cry, “Kameraden! Kameraden!” How the French Secure Them From Running Away. An American who fought with the French gives in the Atlantic Monthly a lively description of a successful atâ€" tack on the enemy’s trenches and the capture of many German prisoners: They were surrendering. Out flew our knives, and in less time than it takes to tell it we had mingled among the prisoners, slicing off their trouser buttons, cutting off suspenders and hacking through belts. We cut the laces off all their shoes, and thus slop- ping along, their hands helplessly in their breeches pockets to keep their trousers from falling .round their ankles, shuffling their feet to keep their boots on, the huge column of prisoners was sent to the rear with a few soldiers to direct rather than to guard them.- flue Fail}! 9f Takéng Digestive Piils As the Germans had left the trenches, their artillery had paused, thinking it a counter-attack. Now, as file after file was escorted to the rear and it became apparent that the men had surrendered, the German ar- tillery opened up again furiously. Six shells landed at the same instant in almost the same place, and within a few minutes Section 3 of our company had almost disappeared.

A committee of leading Russian scholars and professors has been es- tablished to assist the French com- mission to restore the world-renown- ed library of Louvain, in Belgium, which was burned by the Germans in the early days of the war.

McMillan, who has initiated many notable improvements since he became General Manager of the C.P.R. Telegraphs eighteen months ago, has just decided to inaugurate an important service entirely new to Canada over the hundred and ten thousand miles of wire under his immediate control, namely, the day letter which may now be sent between points in Canada on the Canadian Pa- cific system at a rate very much re- duced as compared with the usual commercial rush telegram. Mr. Mcâ€" Millan is convinced that many of those who send telegrams would be quite satisfied if these arrived on the same day, whereas a proportion of the cost of the rush telegram is due to the cost of speedy delivery. The ‘day letter of fifty words will be rated at one and a half times the cost of a regular rush message of ten words and can still bring an answer the same da’, which is as quick as many people desire. There are sixteen hun- dred C.P.R. telegraph offices through- out Canada, at each of which the new service will be in force, so that this will be a Dominion-wide serVice lstretching from Louisburg, Nova Scotia, to Victoria, B.C. Messages will be taken in either French or Eng- lish, code words not being permissible. Mr. John McMillan owes his suc- cess to a genial and tactful disposi- tion which made him one of the most popular C.P.R. officials in the West, ‘where his work centred until he was called to the head office in Montreal last year. Although less than fifty years of age, he joined the CPR. at its inception, working on construction in 1883. After acting for a number of years as operator at Donald B.C., he became Inspector of Telegraphs at Winnipeg in 1902, Assistant Super- tendent in 1906, Superintendent at Calgary in 1907, General Superintend- ent at Winnipeg in 1913, and finally Manager of the whole telegraph sysâ€" tem in March, 1915.
