N211! Elite Bemehg flnmpang When cream is too thin to w‘hip add the unbeaten White of an egg to it first. It becomes as stiff as the rich- est of cream. Saturday, September 9th, will be "Boy Scout Day” at the Western Fai:, London. Ont, this year. Scout Troops from all Western Ontario are being in- vited to participate. Announcements of similar events at other fairs will probably be made shortly. The Hitch Hike is taboo! The prac- tice of catching on behind, and asking for a lift because of the Scout uniform, is bringing disgrace upon the Move- ment. It is not Scouting. End it. Put the shame of it into the hearts of your Scouts. Get the fac' into your local papers that hobo hikers who claim they are members of the Boy Scouts should be required to show unmistak- able evidence that thev are, before any courtesies are shown; even then, only in *cases of unmistakable need should requests for assistance be heeded. This attitude on the part of the public will do much to end the nuisance of fake Scouts imposing on good nature, and will do much to encourage well- in‘tentioned Scouts from undertaking "hobo bikes" with the idea of getting lifts and handouts all along the way. Scout officials also please heed this warning. In the rich vernacular of boyhood, “Can you beat it? JOHN DROEPER, W. T. ALLYN, CHARLES H. TAYLOR.” R. A.

ISSUE No. 31â€"'22 RHEUMATIC SUFFERERS For Wfih The to see or the bathi To begin with, a spot for swimming should be selected where the bottom can be comfortably reached. In places where the beach is sloping, every swimmer should make his effort to- wards the shore and not parallel to the shore. It often happens that the beach slopes down more sharply a few paces further along so after having made some progress in the water, the swimming novice may be unable to touch the bottom only a short dis- tance from the starting point. Then there is the possibility of a level beach or bathing pond having holes or de- pressions whi« denm. There of weeds bel‘c ‘bhe bathers’ ls Are you going swimming this sum- mer? If you are, be careful, especiall- ly if you are a beginner. Don’t think you can learn to swim without a good deal of effort, and do not take chances. If beginners would only take warning in time fewer drowning accddents would result. It is necessary to give attention to one or two points before starting to learn to swim, and even when you can swim. Scorch marks may be taken out of linen -by applying lemon juice and salt.

In the ruins of Sardils, the ancient capital of Lydia in Asia Minor, scientists have recently recovered 30 gold coins minted during the reign of Croesus, sometime between 560 and 546 8.0. The coins were found in a stone jar buried in an ancient tomb, only a few feet below the surface. Some of the coins are as fresh and brighrt as newly minted coins, while others show signs of having been in circulation.

This is proved by the statement of Miss Eldora Acker, Lake Pleasant, N.S., who sayszâ€"“I shall be glad it some other ailing girl will profit by my experience with Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. I was very much run down; my face was pale and there was dark circles around my eyes. My appetite was bad, and I had no ambition to do anything or go about. I had once be- fore been helped by Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills and decided to try them again. It proved a wise decision. for in less than two months time I felt in every way better; had a splendid appetite, the tired feeling disappeared, and I can Work with enjoyment. Naturally I think there is no better medicine for young girls than Dr. Williams' Pink Pills." 1 Now the school girl’s life is more lstrennous; her more numerous studies are a severe tax upon the strength. Also, girls enter business soon after leaving schoolâ€"at an age when they most need rest and outdoor life. Their womanly development is hampered by the stress of working hours, hurried and often scanty meals. Girls are more liable to bloodlessness toâ€"day, but there is this consolation that this condition is now more easily remedied than in the years past. Such medi- cine as Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills has helped thousands of weak, anaemic . l girls and women, simply because they contain the elements necessary to en- rich the blood, which means good health and vitality. l Unearth Gold Coins Minted Before Christian Era.

These seem trifling and commonplace warnings but it is the neglect of the commonplace precau- tions that causes most of the accidents. in water than can be bottomed by an ordinary individual. One can learn to swim very well in water that does not reach above the shoulder. Another im- portant point for swimmers to re- member is that bathing after a heavy meal, or a plunge into cold water with the body superheated, is liable to cause muscular cramps which may result fatally. People troubled with heart disease, hardened artenies or weak kid-- neys are warned against taking cold plunges or staying too long in the water. The increased work thrown on the heart trying to force the blood through surface blood vessels that are contracted by the cold, is often too much of an effort.

There never has been a time when the art‘ism was so well off as regards paints. He can work in colors which will make his pictures last for cen- turies. Exquisite reds, violets, and yellows are prepared from coal-tar, but where- as in earlier days coal-tar colors were often “fugitive”â€"â€"that is, faded rapidly â€"¢o-day the artist knows exactly which are permanentt, which are fugi- tive, and which stand between the two classes. One very beautiful blue comes from an extract of indigo, and the various maddvers from the root of the madder plant. The bark of a variety of oak- tree is used to obtain a lovely pink color. Charred oak and charred ivory are used for black pigments; Colors From Coal. As everyone who cares at all about pictures and painting is well aware, many of the most beautiful works of painters of a century ago are fading away. Turner’s exquisite pictures form an instance in point. To-day many are almost gone, and others have to be kept away from the light, in order to prevent further fading. Now, in order to obtain good and lasting paintsâ€"permanent colors, as they are termedâ€"it is necessary to use real scientific knowledge, axzd to make long and careful tests. This has been done by the modern manufacturers of artists’ colors, with the result that to-day the painter, whether in oil or water-color, has an immense range of colors to choose from, and these are constantly being increased In number by new discover- 1es.
