London replied: “Dear Dick: If I did all my work with my feet I’d keep my promises, Loo.” Foot Work The late Jack London once fell be- hindhand in a story which he had promised a New York magazine.

Black or Stem Rust of Wheat.’ ’ “Black rust is responsible for much of the losses to grain in Western Can- ada, Occasionally epidemics, such as that of 1916, occur and cause a loss of hundreds of millions of dollars to the national wealth.” Such is a statement in bulletin, No. 33, second series, en: titled “The Black or Stem Rust of Wheat” recently issued by the Divi- sion of Botany of the Dominion Ex- perimental Farms, which at once indi- cates its own importance as well as the disastrous nature of the disease. Although special stress is laid upon the losses experienced in Western Canada, the disease is by no means confined to that section of the coun- try, but might break out anywhere. Thus a study of the bulletin by the, agricultural community generally isl commended. It purports to be a popu- lar account of the nature, cause and prevention of grain rust and as such it is written in plain" but definite lan- guage. In the earlier part of the year a cardâ€"poster, with a border of de- scriptive illustration in colors, was circulated by the Department of Agri- culture at Ottawa, giving in brief form precautions that can be taken against the approach of the disease and that might have a minimizing ef- fect later on. The present bulletin, which can be had free from the Pub- lications Branch of the Department, amplifies the advice there given and minutely tells how the disease can be identified in its incipient-y. It deâ€" scribes the red or summer stage and the black or winter stage, the action: of the fungus on the host plant andf the relation of stem rust to the bar-‘ berry. It also alludes to the fact that. with the disappearance of the barberry , in Denmark. the fungus of rust vanâ€"5 ished or pei'chtibly lessened in extent” Thousands of barrels of apples rot upon the trees or upon the ground every year.'

More disturbances to the health are caused’ by their blood than most peo- ple have any idea of. When your blood is impoverished, the nerves suffer from lack of nourishment and you may be troubled with insomnia, neuritis, neuralgia or sciatica. Muscles subject to strain are under-nourished and you may have muscular rheumatism or lumbago. If your blood is thin and you begin to show symptoms of any of these disorders, try building up the blood with Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and as the blood is restored to its nor- mal condition every symptom of the trouble will disappear. There are more people who owe their present state of good health to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills than to any other medicine, and most of them do not hesitate to say so. , Whenever you have constant or re curring headaches and pallor of the faée. they show that the blood is thin andlyour efforts should be directed to- ward building up your blood. A fair treatment with Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills will do this effectively, and the rich, red blood made by these pillz will remove the headache. People with thin blood are much more subject to headaches than full- blooded persons, and the form of anaemia that afflicts growing girls is almost always accompanfed by head- aches, together with disturbance of the digestive organs.

When the Napoleonic wars were at their height a petition was presented to the emperor asking for the release of some English civilians imprisoned, or, as we should put it now, interned in France: Napoleon at first gave an abrupt refusal. But the secretary, glancing down, noted that the petition was signed by Dr. Jenner, the discov- erer of vaccination against smallpox. “Ah,” said Napoleon, when he was told this, “we can refuse nothing to that rfame. Let them go." Can any one,even with stimulants, imagine the kaiser showing such magnanimity‘! Napoleon was a good deal of a brute â€"at least he was deemed so by the unsophisticated generations which knew him. But by comparison with Hohenzollern standards Napoleon was a mild, high-minded gentleman. MJnard‘l Liniment for sale everywhere. The King as a Clubman The King is using the Marlborough Club a good deal when in London these days. It has the advantage of securing for him the same privilege of non-interference as belongs to the ordinary Clubman. That is to say that no special notice is taken of his visits. When he wants to talk to fel- low-members he does so; when he pre- fers to sit quiet and listen to any talk that is going on, he can do so. The Marlborough is one of the few places where the Sovereign can forget his sovereignty. What we have always seen done in one way we are apt to imagine there was but that one way.
