I took a bad spell and everyone thought I was going to die. A friend asked me to try “As I had had two doctors and did noft get any better I decided to try them, and believe me they are wonderful, for I am fully restored to health and strength, and may sr.y with truth I never felt bet ter.

An exhortation to mothers to study and mold the all-important dream life of their children, which when uncon trolled may lead to disaster, is con tained in an article by Florence Hull Winterburn in the June issue of “Psychology Magazine.” Mrs. Winterbum in emphasizing the importance of the child’s dream life writes: “It is from childish dreams that the stuff of good or evil lives is obtained. The little child knows so much less than he believes; ho believes so much more than he imagines. Imagination is the king Of his life, the priest of his faith. What he wants—this he dreams about. What he has in dreams, this ’lie aspires toward in his daily life. Dreams influence reality and reality gives out the material from which dreams are built. If it is hard for even the most logical and truthful person to accurately distinguish be tween the ideas obtained out of prac tical living and those intangible fan cies coming in dreams, how much more impossible is it for a child, who is most of his time, waking and sleep ing, under the dominion of his imag ination, to be sure of what is true and what is false? Before we bring any child to account for these little tales of fancy he seriously relates to us as facts, we should investigate the sourees of his belief. “The miseries of a child who is forced to repeat in dreams, in an exaggerated shape, the disagreeable experiences of a hard day, are things seldom taken account of by the grown people who have almost forgotten their childhood. The old-time prac tice among our Puritan ancestors of having a child rehearse his bad deeds before going to sleep, and often get ting the punishment for them at the J&edtime hour, Was a deplorable mis use of authority. We -should, on the from Most of the new frocks have belts, u-ed, as in ’ and a last year’s frock may be smart- e’ >pote--eh-r ened up and made to look quite up-to-’ tons en mm date by being given a belt.

One frock in navy with high collar and fronts lined with scarlet had a black leather belt inlet with diamonds of scarlet and edged with gilt.

Snake and lizard skin belts are much used even on the flimsiest materials,! A lovely pale gray chiffon frock with was a mass of tucks, had for its sole trimming a belt of gray and white snake skin, and a-frock in a new kind of shantung In sand color", whs belted with lizard skin, a further' trimming in this case being a row of mother- of-pearl buttons from the waist downward. NEW USES FOR AN OLD FEATURE. Buttons are used for the most part fairly sparsely, but with very good effect. Colored bone buttons to match the material are seen on coat frocks, especially in the new soft blue that all the Paris houses are showing, and colored mother-of-pearl buttons de corate thinner fabrics. For instance, a smart little violet crepe-de-chine frock was fastened diagonally from neck to hip with a row of violet mother-of-pearl buttons. A model of green-and-white angora-and-silk check had a juhxper of the plain green inlet with narrow stripes of the checked material and was buttoned up the front with buttons formed of whole pearls. Sometimes gold metal buttons are ishing a narrow belt of a pink crepe- de-chine frock, being happy examples. RUBBER FRINGES. The trimmings and embroideries on frocks aro elaborate and entail an enormous amount of work. A much admired gown seen recently at a model house was of navy georgette almost covered with rows of fine black ^lk br^i<j gunning ^downward. On georgettes the very 'finest em broideries and hand-drawn thread work is seen such as is associated with gossamer Irish linen handker chiefs. Extremely smart was an apricot erepe-de-chine frock with a jumper of zibbeline to match, on which was a scattered design in drawn-thread work. One of the most elaborate embroid eries seen recently was on a gown of palest gray chiffon patterned all over like a brocade with an applique de sign in pale gray cloth. Rubber fringes are the latest idea for evening gowns and very smart they are in brilliant colors with tap ered ends. An orange chiffon frock diamante in downward lines was fin ished with one of these rubber fringes in a deeper shade. Another very smart model was elaborately embroid ered with beads and diamante in a design of oval scallops with a deep fringe of rubber in a vivid green at the edge of the skirt. ^JOSEPH WRIGHT, SENIOR, AND JOE WRIGHT, JUNIOR The winner of the big American Henley at Philadelphia, Saturday, and father.

I have taken everything I have seen adver tised, but have never had any of them do me so much good as At the present time, when elaborate preparations are under way for the celebration of that momentous event in Canadian history, the passing of the British North Amrlca Act, which link ed together and co-ordinated the des tines of the several. British Dominions in the North America continent. It is most fitting that we, as young Cana dians, should, give more than a passing thought to whet we may justly claim as our common heritage. Tennyson has said, "Let the dead past bury its dead.” But a little retrospect ..can serve at least one useful purpose, in< so much as the progress we have made” in the past, furnishes us a yard stick by which, we may measure what the future may reasonably be expected to hold in store for us. Historians differ as to who was the first European to set foot on Canadian soil, but the first successful effort at permanent settlement was made in 1603 by Samuel de Champlain, when he established a settlement at what is now the town of Annapolis in Nova Scotia. The history of the colony from this date was one of almost con tinual warfare, between the French settlers and the Indians, and also be tween the French and the English set tlers in the New England States. At the conclusion of war between England and France in 1713 England received by the Treaty of Utrecht, Newfoundland and Acadia, which is now the provinces of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island. The Seven Year War between England and France brought about a renewal of hostilities in Canada, culuminating in the memorable .combat on the Plains of Abraham on September 13th, and the surrender of Vaudreuil at Montreal. By the Treaty of Paris which closed this war England secured possession of practically the entire North American Continent. Considerable difficulty was at first experienced in trying to adapt British customs to the new colonies. By the Quebec Act of 1774 the French-Cana- dians were given the freedom to enjoy their own religion, and their own civil laws. In 1791 Quebec was divided into Upper and Lower Canada, the name Canada being derived from the Indian word Canatha, meaning a, collection of huts. Each province was given a separate parliament but this arrange ment proved unsatisfactory, finally re sulting in the Rebellion of 1837 and 1838 following which the two provinces were reunited by the Act of Union of 1840. At this time Upper Canada had a population of four hundred and fifty thousand, mostly English speaking, while Lower Canada had a population of six hundred and fifty thousand, mainly French-Canadians, While the foregoing events were transpiring in Upper and Lower Can ada, the colonies on the Atlantic Coast (now known as tho Maritime Prov inces), were rapidly growing in im portance. Tho discovery of gold on be made. According a conference was held in the City of Quebec In 1864 fol lowed by one in London in 1866. the deliberations of those two conferences being crystalized into law by the pass ing of the British North America Act in 1867, which united the provinces of Upper and Lower Canada (which were then changed to Ontario and Quebec), Nova Scotia and New Brunswick under the name of the Do minion of Canada. In 1868 the North West Terrltorries were added, in 1870 Manitoba, in 1871 British Columbia and In 1873 Prince Edward Island joined the Confederation making Canada a solid block of territory from coast to coast. Since Confederation Canada’s pro gress has been phenomenal. Her mil lions of acres of flrtile.&oll has attract ed a very desirable type of agricul tural immigrant, "and to-day Canada is referred to as the. granary of the Em pire, and takes first place amongst the ■ wheat exporting .nations of the world, while Canadian cheese, butter, bacon and apples are held in high esteem in the markets of the world. Industrial development has kept pace with agricultural development. We have now the greatest publicly owned transportation system in the world. Canadian electrical develop ments exceed in horsepower those of any other nation, while the as yet undeveloped power resources are prac tically unlimited. While the value of our annual production of pulp wood, lumber and minerals almost equals the value of our agriculture production, our resources are estimated to be the largest in the world. Ail public ser vices essential to the transaction of business or the pleasures of life, are as thoroughly developed and as effici ent as are to be found in any part of the world, while our educational facilities are unsurpassed. One of the greater advantages which. Canada possesses is the type of Cana dian citizenship. There is a respect, for law and order a security of life and property which is the envy of many less fortunate people. In no other place is better provision made for the care of the afflicted. There is a most commendable spirit of National pride coupled with un swerving loyalty to the British Crown, a desire to be in the forefront of the commonwealth of nations forming the British Empire. In all, peaceful pur suits of life, Canada’s sons uphold her honor, while when put to the supreme test on the blood stained fields of Flanders they won undying fame. There is every reason to believe that the coming years will demonstrate to the world the. truth of Sir Wilfred Laurier’s famous .utterance' "The Twentieth Contury belongs to Can ada.” .Trusts and the Economic Conference.

Vernon, B.C.—Cheques aggregat ing almost $150,000 were recently sent out by the Associated Growers Ltd. to its various locals for distri buting among fruit growers. The cheques covered rebates on the mon ies held back for selling costs and earnings of the brokerage end of the co-operative. In addition many of the locals will pay small rebates on packing charges and growers gener- <ally will receive altogether an addi tional 5 or 6 cents per box for apples and about 3 cents per package for Boft fruits. Selling charges of the Associated. Growers, this year were cut down to an average of 4 cents per box for ap ples, while packing charges were gen erally reduced to the point where both selling and packing charges combined are considerably less than 50 cents per box. ----------❖---------- About the time a woman gets what she wants she admires something else. ---------- --------- The six best doctors anywhere.

Vfe have described the subject our lesson as “Providence, Divine and Human, in the Life of Peter.” The reaso’n for so doing is, that prayer on the human side corresponds to provi dence cm the divine side, Christians ai‘& meant to act as fellow-workers with God in the accomplishing of his divine ends, -and they act as such | when they serve -and pray. In ways j unknown to us our prayers, as well as our acts of faith, “come up before God” an'd become part of the means through which Gon fulfills his provi dential purposes. Vs. 5, 6. Herod Agrippa I., the grandson of Herod the Great, had lived the life of a disinherited man and an adventurer until thio ugh the favor of the Emperor ’Caligfiia, he received tho dominions formerly ruled by the tetrarchs Antipas and Philip. To these dominions the territories of Judaea and Samaria were subsequent ly added, so that at this time Herod was, nominally. at least/ sovereign over Palestine. His persecution of the, Christians was inspired by the desire to secure favor with the Phar isees and' so to consolidate his author ity. His execution of James the son of Zebedee was a grievous act of in justice, -and only an act of God pre vented him shedding the blood of Peter in addition to that of James. •Vs. 7, 8, Peter’s condition seemed hopeless enough on the last night of his detention in prison.

What use of human means .and agen cies explains or underlies the story we are not able to determine, God's angels are sometimes human instru ments raised up to do the will- of God. Be that as it may, Peter’s re lease can only be explained ultimately as an act of divine interposition. Vs. 9, 10. The various stages of Peter’s .escape are now described.
