‘Df all the kindly things God made One of the kindliest is shade. His glorious company of trees throw out their mantles, and in these I‘he dust-stained traveler‘finds ease. On one Occasion a hive was being "spied upon" by a wasp. When a wasp ascertains that a hive is worth attacking. he carries the news to his friends. and sometimes succeeds in ousting or severely Worrying the bees. While the wasp-smut was nosing around, the bees stayed in the hive, but every time the wasp approached the small entrance hole a bee came out and walked round in a circle, do~ mg sentry-work tin the wasp departed. bees were busy again. THE MAN WE) WINS An hour later a waspafiresdmahiy the scoutâ€"was found dead omits back on the top of the hive, and the Is Always Full of Life and Energy-Failux~es Are Weak and Bloodless. Some men seem to have all the luck. If there are anygpood things go‘ing these men seem to get them. They make other people do their will â€"they are leaders. If they are busi- ness men they are succeSSful; if they are yorkmen they get the toreman‘s job. They have' the power of influ- encing people. The same thing is true of women. Some have the charm that makes men seek them out; others are always neglected. But this is not luck. It is due to a personal giftâ€"vitality. Men and women of this sort are never weak, puny invalids. They may not be big, but they are full of life and energy. The whole thing is a matter of good blood, good nerves and good health. Everyone would wish to be like this and the qualities that make for vitality and energy are purely a matter of health. By building up the blood and nerves sleeplessness. want of energy. weakness of the back, 'stooping shoulders, headaches and the ineffectual sort of presence which really comes from Weakness can all bygot rid of. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have made many weak. tired men, vigorous and healtlw. and many pale, dejected girls and women plump, rosy and attractive, by improving their bloodand toning up their nerves. It you are weak, ailing, lOWSpirited or unhealthy, begin to cure yourself to- day by the use of Dr. Williams' Pin}: Pills. So when I weary of the town. Its ceaseless fret and din, I seek my books that never frown When solace I would win. What a bee does not know is sup- bosed to be not Worth knowing. That may or may not be true, but two tol- lowing incidentsuone of which was witnessed by the writerâ€"~testfy to the remarkably sagacity and efiiciency of bees. For they, good friends in tale and rhyme, Have never failed to bring [n troubled hours of autumn time. The lilac days of Spring. For on strange jOurneys you are led, Beyond your study walls, Where Fancy ever strides ahead And onward sweetly cans. Or set adritt on castled streams, Where mellow moonbeams dance, You sail, a voyager of dreams, I To regions of Romance. You can get these Pills through any medicine dealer or by mail at 50 cents a box or six b0xes for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams’ Medicine C0,. Brock- vme, Ont. A book is an enchanted gate. That leads to fairy lands, But cross the threshold and your fate Is shaped by Witching hands. Until you leave the world behind, Lost in a verdant maze, And Wander where the far roads wind _ln haunting woodland ways. Brainy Bees. Books. Tommy (tasting the soup)â€"“Y‘ were lucky. mate.

For centuries, over there, efforts have been made to prevent hailstnrms by various ingenious means. tite‘lat- est of which ls-What is called the “elec- ltric Niagara." / Restaurant Proprietorâ€"“Yus, I was through it; twp years, officers’ cook: wound‘ed twice." It seems that experienced cheese cutters come to “know” cheese. 01’ co rse cheeses vary in size, in their th'; knew and in their diameter, and cheeses of like dimensions vary in weight, but by long experience the ex- pert cheese cutter comes to know the cheeses so well that he can cut from any cheese just the right sized slab to make the required {eight He cuts with astonishing accuracy. The only cheese that baffles him at all is the Swiss, this on account of the holes in it, or rather on account of the peculiarity of Swi_ss cheese holes. His customer had once before seen this salesman do precisely the same thing, and now the customer ventured to ask: "Do you do that very often ?” “Alm0st always;" the salesman said Then he removed the wire screen from over an English cheese that stood near on the counter and picked up a large, sharp knife. Without a moment’s hesitation or deliberation he set the edge of the knife down on the cheese and then crowded the knife down through it, cutting off a wedge shaped piece which now he laid on that paper on the scale, and the piece of cheese that he had thus cut off weighed exactly a pound, not close to a pound. or anything of that sort, but exactly a pound; the ,weight and the cheese just balanced.

This contrivance is in effect a much I elaborated lightning rod~â€" '1 enorm- I oously tall and extremel slender tower of light steel rods, which is ex- pected to carry-oft from the cloqu harmlessly a veritable cataract of electricity. Robbed of their lightnings. the clouds are supposed to be render- ed incapable of forming hailstones. Tall poles of steel, or wooden poles carrying lightning rods, have long been in use for the same purpo'se in France~ and other European countries.l They have been set up literally by the hundreds of thousands, whole land- scapes being sprinkled with them. Another idea persistexlly tried has been the bombarding of clouds with explosive; missles or sometimes with rockets. Yet another. more recent, consists in discharging smoke-rings from mortal-5. The smoke is supposed to mingle with the cloud vapor and interfere with the formation of hail. The salesman put a one pound weight on one plate of a counter scale, while upon the other he iaid a. tidy strip of white paper upon which to lay the cheese. Sclenfiflc bodies here and abroad. including our own weather bureau, have made elaborate experimental studies of these methods and have de- clared them Worthless. But the Euro- pean agriculturist believes in their effectiveness with a faith that is al- most religious. "One pound Of Old English, please," Thus a customer at the cheese couno ter.

The Anglo-Belgian commission, ap- pointed to consider the question of the reconstruction of Ypres, has recom- inended that the central portion of the town be m rebuilt, but remain as a historic monument, says an Ypres despatch. That area includes the ruins of the Cloth Hall, the cathedral, the Church of St. Martin, the Palals de Justice and the adjoining Cloisters. It is bounded on the north \by the Marche de Bois, on the east by the Rue de Dixmude, and on the south by the Grand Place. with,‘however, in cluding any ruins on the opposite side of the square, and on the west by the Rue des Hailes. It was dear to the heart of Charles Lamb, who used to relate that many a time he has made Its jet of water rise and fall, “to the astonishment of the young urchins. my contemporaries, who, not being able to guess at its re- condite machinery, were almost tempt- ed to hail the wonderous work as magic.” '- Charles Dickens. too. loved the foun- tain. making it, in “Martin Chuzzle- wit,” the rendezvous of John West- lock and Ruth Pinch. A large number of mines which have become detached from the minefields in the North Sea around the Orkney Isles have been seen floating qulte ln- shore.

The Anglican Church Authorities in the. diocese of Wellington, New Zea- land, pro‘ use to build a. cathedral as a memorial to the New Zealanders fallen in the war. It is proposed to erect, in connection with the came. dral, a military chapel. dedicated to St. George, which will contain the col- ors of the Allies and regimental flagsi Its great windows will symboli'Ze all the Allied nations who have fought in the war. A stone struck one of the horns, and the mine exploded with terrific force, tearing hugh boulders and fragments of rock from the cliff face. The youth was flung Skyward and was seriously injured. The walls of the chapel will be panelled in white marble vtablets, on which the names of all New Zealand soldiers, sailors, doctors and nurses who have fallen in the war (irrespec- tlve of creed or denomination) will be inscribed in letters of gold There are some’ 17,000 from New Zealand who have lost their lives in the war.
