With the advent of April the majority of sportsmen turn their thoughts to fish- ing, and "Rod and Gun & Motor Sports in Canada," published by W. J. Taylor, Woodatook, Ont., has put Ugh :d a Spring Fishing number for the month. There are stories of fishing in Ontario, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Alberta and British Colombia, *while an article des- criptive of Kaliki-the new rod wood is of deep interest to fishermen, A flue stir• vey of the whole question of Internat• tonal Control of International Waters by Mr, C. Wilson is worth careful perusal, embodying as it does a long and oare- feI study of the whole question from both sides. A, Paper on Guides and Their Patrons, written from a guide's point of view by a veteran guide ought to lead to a controversy as exoiting as that on doge versus still hunters, Wolf hunting, Moose hunting, deer hunting and deer, preservation are but a few of the many good things in the number, while How One Settler Helps the Deer, should prove as widespread in its interest as the former paper by the same settler on How One Settler Treats the Deer. Indeed the many exoellienoiee of the n umber are apparent from, the opening paper to the closing page. Sleep -Nature's !.Brest Restorative. While you sleep, Nature is restoring the Dells and tissues wasted during the hours of wakefulness. You can live longer without food than without sleep and persistent sleeplessness usually points to nervous collapse. Dr. Ohase's Nerve Food cures slew lea nets by build- ing uil ,ing up the nervous system and its bene- fits are therefore lasting. A Bird of a Family. The toilewing item appeared not long ago in a newspaper: "The wife of a Methodist minister in West Virginia has been married three times. Her maiden name was Partridge; her flrst husband was named Robin; her second Sparfow; and the present one's name is Quale. There are now two young Robina, one Sparrow and three little tanayles in the family. One grandfather was a Swann, and another was a Jay; brit he's dead and a bird of Paradise, "They live on Hawk avenue, Eagle- v'ille, Canary islands, and the fellow that Wrote this Is a Lyre Bird and an intending relative of the family."

"THE POSE OF POWER." A Doctor Says it Can Only Se Ob- tained by Carrying the Body Richt, The human body 1s a machine -a ma- chine in eonie respects not unlike a watch. If you bend the watch slightly you displace Its parts (its organs, it you please), and then the watch will not go aright. The saltie is true of man. In his body every organ rias its place. If his body le bent some or all of ills yital organs are displaced. They cannot per- form their work, and the man, like the watch, Is out of order. "flow malty of its are like that?" Well, in an examination covering sev- eral thousand people I found less than one in a hundred who was right. Nine- ty-nine people out of a hundred have displaced organs. I may add that. I have never found disease in any organ that was habitual- ly carried in its normal place. The or- gan always becomes displaced before it becomes 'diseased. And what is the cause of tile uni- versal displacemeut? In tl word, the cause is a bad method of bolding the body in standing, in sitting, walking about and lying down. The trunk is merely a flexible, hollow cylihder in- side of which the organs are supported, each in its place. When, however, the body is bent and collapsed, as in most people, the organs drop out of their places and are .crowded against each other. They are then unable to do their work, and thus they become diseased. Every case of chronic indigestion which I have over examined has had a stomach that was hanging from two to five inches lower than its right position -a condition known to medical men as gastroptosis. And the rare man who bolds his body aright in standing, walking or sit- ting, such a man is always a man of power. Cromwell was a man of this type. So were Napoleon, Washington and Bismarck. •. "And how shall I restore my organs to proper position?" asks one of the ninety-nine. By so developing the body that It is at all times erect, uplifted and expand- ed. This will draw each organ into the position in which it can do its best work, A glance at the pictures of the men I have mentioned will show you What I mean. As to practical methods, tape the fol- lowing exercise for five.minutes four or five times a day: Place the feet together, arms at sides, head back, chest up and forward, ab- domen in, knees back, weight on balls of feet -"the position of a soldier." Throw the weight as far forward as you can. Bold the position from half to one minute, then relax. Repeat the exercise from six to twelve times. Acid to this reasonable habits of liv- ing, and in three months you will leave gone far toward gaining the pose of power. -Dr. Latson in Chicago journal. Warding Off a Cold. The first point that must have struck almost every careful observer of catar- rhal pneumonia is that in nine cases out of ten a cold is caught as the re- sult, not of getting cold, but, on the contrary, of getting unduly hot. This apparent paradox is, of course, Intel- ligible enough when one considers that it is when the body is heated that the pores of the skin are opened and are thea muck more likely to take a chill than when they are closed by the ac- tion of the cold. This is also'the expla- nation of the efficacy of a cold shower bath after taking a Turkish or even an ordinary hot bath, as the sudden ac- tion of the cold water closes the pores and so protects the skin from the ac- tion of the air. The best possible pre- ventive from catching cold is cold wa- ter, applied either in the form of a cold bath or, if that is considered too drastic a measure, It will be found that merely bathing the neck in cold" water, both in the early morning and also the last thing at night, does a great deal toward giving one immunity from colds. -Modern Society. Rossetti's_ Way. This striking picture of Rossetti ap- pears in William Allington's memoirs: "Rossetti walks very characterically, with a peculiar lounging gait, often trailing the point of his umbrella on the ground, but still obstinately push- ing on and making way, humming the while with closed teeth in the inter- vals of talk, not a tune or anything like one, but what sounds like a sotto voce note of defiance to the universe. Then suddenly he will fling himself down somewhere and refuse to stir an inch farther, life favorite attitude -on his back, one knee raised, hands be- hind head. He very seldom takes par- ticular notice of anything as he goes and cares nothing about natural his- tory or science in any form or degree. It is plain that the simple, the natural, the naive, aro merely insipid in his mouth, He must have strong savors in art, in literature and in life. About these and other matters Itosscttl is chivalrously bold in announcing and defending his opinion, and he bas the valuable quality of knowing what he likes and sticking to it."

SOME COOKERY DON'TS. Don't cook by guesswork. Weigh all your ingredients and test your oven before you try to bake. Don't slam the oven door. It will spoil the cake, and it wou't improve the pudding. Don't be wasteful. Bread crusts may be browned and ground. Bits of meat may help to improve the soup pot. Don't be in a harry. If you skimp in the matter of time you are certain to leave some important thing undone. Don't try to improve upon a recipe until yon have mastered its every de- tail..If you deviate from it to "save trouble," yon will probably "make trouble" for yourself. .Don't be discouraged by one failure. If the dish does not succeed, try again, and keep on trying until you find out what is the matter. Don't fail to keep a olook in the kit. cben, for time is a neoessary ingredient in suocessful 000king. Don't fail to keep tiie ice box clean, for many foods like milk and butter are quick to absorb foreign odors.

THE ORm$H MUSEUM, It Was Gambler) Into Existence by. Lha Lottery Routs. The British museum, famed all over the world, was horn of a lottery. It was in 1753 that the trustees of Sir Hans Sloane offered to the nation for £20,000 the wonderful collection of coins, manuscripts, printed books and natural history curiosities. As an ad- ditional iuducelnent to the state to pro- vide house room 1t was pointed out that the Uarlefan colleetions of manu- scripts could still be secured for the nation on payment of £10,000 and that the collection of Sir Hobert Cotton, al- though nominally the property of the nation, was so carelessly boused that a large part had already been destroy- ed by fire. The government refused to find the cash, but .declared its readiness, after the true British sporting manner, to allow the public to gamble the British museum into existence. A lottery was therefore authorized of 100,000 three pound tickets, 1200,000 to be .distribut- ed as prizes and the balance to go to- ward the purchase of the Sloane col- lection. The scheme proved success- ful, although the manager of the lot- tery fell into disgrace and was fined, 11,000 for taking an illegal premium, In this sordid fashion was the British museum planted and watered in the palace of the blontagus in Bloomsbury, Its first days were far from prosper- ous. An income of 1900 only was available from, the great gamble, Two bequests brought the total up to 12,448, leaving, after payment of the few sal- aries, about 1100 to make fresh pur- chases. But the need for the expenditure in this direction was rendered less neces- sary by the rapidity with which fresh collections of enormous value poured into Montagu House. The great tree has, in fact, grown so rapidly as well nigh to bathe the art of the gardeners to find light and air and room for the spreading branches. The reading room, which in the old building could accom- modate only live readers, can now seat nearly 500. Reckoning the miles of shelving devoted to books, the mu- seum is easily the Iargest in the world. By cunning arrangements forty-one miles of shelf room have been found for the forest of books that now min- ister to the enlightenment of the uni- verse. The Bibliotheque Nationale, in Paris, the largest in the world, can boast of only thirty-one. - London Chronicle. To the Manner Born. Whether the word be "manner" or "manor," inthe often used quotation, is a question frequently asked. Tbat "to the manner born" is correct is evi- dent from the context of the phrase, which occurs in "Hamlet," act I, scene 4. While Hamlet and his friends, Horatio and Marcellus, are waiting on the platform outside of the palace for the possible appearance of the ghost of the dead king the noise of a flour- ish of trumpets and the roar of a can- non are heard. In explanation of this Hamlet says: The king doth wake tonight and takes his rouse. ICeop wassail and the swaggering up - spring reels; And as he drains his draught of Rheinlsh down The kettledrum and trumpet thus bray out The triumph of his pledge This allusion is to an actual practice at banquets among the ancient Saxons and Danes of proclaiming with a sa- lute each time tbat the king drained his goblet. Therefore, to the question "Is it a custom?" Hamlet replies: Aye, marry, is't; And to my mind, though I am native here, And to the manner born, it is a custom LXore honored in the breach than the ob- servance. -Housekeeper. need ?or Dust Sheets.
