NO TANKS!
There has been a stir in Hun -land from
East Prussia to Alsace;
It has travelled o'er the leatherland at
truly magic pace:
And the cause of all the trouble Nvhieh
has stirred the German ranks.
Is the Tanks.
The Tanks are little animals of thirty
feet in length,
And their diet of in,aeldne guns helps to
keep them up strength.
They are very keen on fighting, and
they're always up to pranks,
Are the Tanks.
They can eat up any mansion just as
eosy as you please;
They hiva tho taste of dug -outs, and they
simply dote on trees;
They tali down all the craters, they can
walk up all the banks.
Can the Tanks.
Their names are nothing striking—they're
as modest as can be;
They're simply labelled "Creme do
Menthe,' or makbe, "Wait and
See!'
I3ut they never think of turning tail—
they're ,beautifully Manx,
Are the Tanks. •
They move along like caterpillars spoiling
for a fight;
And though they're low, of irnpudence
they really are the height.
You get no "change" from them, except
in "marks"—not pounds or francs;
Oh, Tanks!
So the Germans who for two whole years
had thought they had a "slam,"
Will soon be back in Hamburg, or Wies-
baden, or Potsdam;
But before that comes to pass you'll
hear from out their shattered ranks:
"No Tanks!"

RELAX FIVE MINUTES,
For Beauty and Health Girl Work,
ers Should Find Time.
Can you relaa aveolutely five min -
Utes at a time, three times a day?
If you can, it will go a long way to-
ward making sad keeping you beauti-
ful, says a writer. Last week I stood
on the street corner downtown, watch-
ing the girls going home. The shops
were closing, it was the time of day
when all claeses are mingled together,
all in a rush homewards. A few late
shoppers were scurrying along—you
could see in their eyes plans for a
hastily gotten -up dinner —salesgirls
were anxious to get away from busi-
ness, more fortunately provided -for
women were haetening uptown to
dress for dinner, And every face was
lined and pale, drawn from the strain
of the day, whether it had been work
or pleasure.
Jeannette rode home with me—Jean-
nette works in a large store, as head
stenographer. She looked as tired as
the others. "Rest," she scoffed, when
I asked her whether ehe couldn't relax
during the day. "Rest? Where?
From 8.30 till noon, not a chance with
all my work. At noon. between lunch
and the shopping I always have to
do, my hour is gone; from then till
closing I'm busy." She ,thought the
argument settled.
However, most days could etand five
minutes taken off the shoppiog. And
every day she could throw herself on
the bed for the 'same period before
eating eupper. And she would find a
wonderful improvement in her looks.
For the thing that pulls meat girls
down is nervous strain. Frequently
this is the result of a physical strain
—and unfortunately most of the phy-
sical strain of work is unavoidable.
And here is where the five minutes'
rest will serve to quite tensed nerves,
to relax tired Muscles. Most large
shops have rest rooms with big chairs
and couches where the girle ean

FEAR OF DEATH.
Terror of *the End Still Haunts
Men and Women.
The statement lias been made that
the present generation is suffering
from a hysterical fear of death, and
that this explains the reluctance of
scene to enter the war. We doubt
whether one age or 'me country dif-
fer::: from another in its view of death.
Certainly it cannot be maintained that
racdern civilization and its comforts
have increased the fear of death. It
was in the Elizabethan age, the age
of heroes, as we regard it, that the
Prayer against "battle, muraer and
-
sudden death" was franted. In this
comfortable, prosaic age, It Is no un-
common thing to hear a man or -wo-
man express a preference for sudden
death to any other --•death itselt being
inevitable.
&Leon says that men fear death
as children fear to go into the dark,
and that they fear, not so inuch death
as the stroke of death. Tii?re le no
passion in the mind of male, he says,
but it Mates and masters the fear oE
death. "Revenge tritimplis over death;
lcve slights it; lionor as.pireth to it;
grief fleeth to it," Bacon inest have
seen men and women facing, death
cheerfully in the tilt:charge df the
most common duties of life.
Men fear death to -day no more than
they did a thousand years ago, but
they are more relactstet to destroy
lite. Capital • punishment, once in-
flicted for a trifling theft,- le now
reserved for Murder. We have a higher
seines than our ancestors of the
sacredness of life. The modern move-
ment against war is the result, not of
an abject clinging to lite, hut of a
strong repugnance of taking the lifa
of another. When lettsktit considers

RHEUMATISM IN
THE BLOOD
it Can Only Be Cured by Thoroughly
Enrichlno the Blood Supply.
Not so long ago rheumatism was
lookee upon as a pain in the mursclea
or joints brought on by exposure 'to
dampness or bad weether. Now doc-
tors know that it it rooted in the
blood and while expasure may start
the pain, nothing but the removal of
the poisonous acid from the blood, will
cure the trouble. It is a waste of
both time and money to try to cure
Theumatisrn with liniments, poultices
or anything that only goes skin deep.
Rubbing lotions into the skin may
give temporary relief, but it actually
helps to circulate the poisonous acid
more freely, and thus in the Kid in-
creases the trouble, and perhaps leaves
the sufferer permanently crippled. The
one cure, the only sure, for rheuma-
tism is to drive the acid whech causes
the trouble out of the blood. To do
this no other remedy can equal Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills, which actually
make new blood, sweep out the poi-
sonous acid-, loosen the stiffened, ach-
ing joints, and bring good health and
comfort. Heere is the proof: Mr.
acreeph Crouse, of Nineveh, N.S., says:
"For several years 1 was severely af-
flicted with rheumatism. The trouble
seemed to locate in all the joints in
my body, and my suffering at times
was most intense, and tbe disease
greatly interfered with my activity,
doctored steadily for a long time, but
the trouble was obstinate and did not
yield in the least to the doctors' treat-
ment, One day a friend told me of
some cures of rheumatism by the use
of Dr, Williams' Pink Pills, and
strongly advised nee to try them. I
did so, and to my great surprise, eight
boxes completely cured me of the trou-
ble, and I was as supple, active and
free from pain as ever I had been
In my life. Better still, I have never
felt a symptom of the trouble since."
• You can get these pills from any
medicine dealer or ray mail at 5() cents

FIRST TRAIN OPERATED
TORONTO TO MONTREAL
SIXTY YEARS AGO TO- HY
Montreal, Oct. 27.—This is the six-
tieth anniversary of the inauguration
of railroad communication between
the cities of Montreal and Toronto. On
October 27th, 1856, the Grand Trunk
operated its first through train be-
tween th.eSe two important Canadian
centres.
Toronto and Montreal bad been de-
pendent for their communication up-
on the St. Lawrence waterway and
the stage routes, and after the close oil
navigation each year intercourse was
maintained with great difficulty. The
Grand Trunk Railway Company was
incorporated in 1852, to build a rail-
road between the cities, the under-
taking being looked upon as one of
great national importance. The first
section from Montreal to Brodkville,
125 miles, was completed in Novella
ber, 1855, and it was on the 27th of
October ot the following year that the
second section from Brockville to To-
ronto was thrown open, joining up the
two principal centres,
The company had promised the peo-
ple of Canada that it would provide
these new .facilities for travel during
the winter of 1855, and it accomplish-
ed its pledge, in spite of many diffi-
eulties. The general manager of the
road in his report to the directors in
the following year said, "Notwith-
standing all these obstacles, the trains
were enabled to ren with a regularity
which was not surpalesed, and in the
majority of cases not equalled, by any
railroad on the continent."
The first train to operate over the
;Toronto -Montreal line was the fore-
runner of The international Limited of
to -day. It represented the last word
in railroad equipment, although it
only consisted of three first-class and
three second-claes coaches. The oper-
ating schedule was a feet one for
those days. The eastbound train left
Toronto at 7.00 a. m., and the west-
bound train left Montreal at 7.30 a m.,
and the running time was fourteen
hours between the two eitiest as
against the seven and one-half hours
of The International Limited of to-
day. -
The first train froin Toronto was
greeted on parietal in Montreal by-
thOueands of vieltors from all parte at
Canada and the United States. There
were nillitary parades, trade and soci-
ety precessioae, torchlight marches,
fireWorks and daneirig.
The Mayors- of Boston, Cleveland
and Portland, and representatives Of
the eity of Chicago congratulated the
Meyers of Montreal and Toronto, and
the preeeedings Were graced by the
Governor-General of Canada. The
Point St. Charles ehops of the Grand
Trunk were turned into a great ban-
quet hall, with nettling accoinmodation
for 4,400 guests, and every table was
erowded. Speeelies Were made * the

HAZEN, K. C., MINISTER OF
MARINE AN3 FISHERIES
ANO NAVAL SiRVICE
Canadians have won undying fame
upon the battlefields at Flanders and
France. An equal opportunity for dis-
tinction upon sea is now offered. A
Canadian Naval Overseas Divieion,
Ishieh will be attached to the Grand
Fleet, is being organized and five thou-
sand men aro being called for, The
new force will be as distinctly Cana-
dian as are the four divisions now
fighting on the Somme. There will be
Canadian rate of pay, Canadian separ-
ation allowance and ssistnee from the
Cnadian Patriotic Fund. 'rhe milers
from the Dominion will wear a special
Canadian badge, no matter where or
in what 'unit of the navy they are
serving. The organization and Main-
tenance of the division is under the
direction of Hon. J. D. Hazen, Minister
of Naval Service, who is taking an
enthusiastic personal Interest in the
matter and is making a special plea
Lor recruits for this. service.
"When war first broke out," ex-
plained Mr. Hazen, "the Canadian Gov-
ernment asked the Britislt authorities
how we conld best hell/. and sug-
gested raising recruits for the navy,
as well as a land force. At that time
all naval reservee had been called out,
and the Admiralty had a surplus of

shipmates in the Royal Navy; the
Wane° of their pay will be retained
in Canada until their return, although
a portion Of this balance will, 12 so
oesired, be forwarded monthly to the
wives or dependents a the men, the
remainder accumulating until tbeir
return."
"All recruits as soon as enrolled will
be given their uniforms and be tient to
either one of the naval depots in
England for training. They will be
sent overseas as ordinary seamen, and
those who wish to serve in the stok-
ing ratings will be enatled to volun-
teer for such service. The (-mutton of
their advancement to higher ratings
will be left in the hands of the Lords
Commissioners of the Admiralty, and
should they desire to make promo -
tams in this overseas division, the
Canadian Government will increase the
men's full Canadian pay to the equiva-
lent rate of pay in the Canadian Ex-
peditionary Force for the relative rank.
"The Dominion has beea divided into
six areas for recruiting purposes,, each
area, being in charge of a naval ree,
cruiting officer, who by permiesion of
the Department of Militia and Defence
alit be allowed to utilize thefliilitia

that by this means the whole of the
Dominion will be reached."

This Old World Has _Room for
Many More People.
There are on thie globe a,bout 1,500,-
000,000 inhabitants. Mostof us es, who
lack the sense of proportion, at the
mention of this big number are apt
tg speak of the "over -population" of
the world. Yet, if we Spare a few mo-
ments' thought, we shall better know
What this represents. There is in my
study -room a geographie globe about
fifteen inches in diaraeter. On that
sphere there is marked a little spot
about tho size of the point of a pencil
'—at any rale, so Mull as to make it
impossible to write the initials of lee
nanie—Lake Champlaia—upon it. Yet
whenever Lake Champlain freezes
over there is good standing -room for
every one of all the inhabitants of the
earth, and then title lake would be
considerably late crowded than some
of the busy streets of New York. In-
deed, strange as it may sound, every
one, young and old, would find about
one square yard to etaiad, upon. Nay,
More, if the very young and the very
old would please to stand aside on the
shores of the lake, the remainder of
the total iahabltants of the , world
could arrange a skating Pettit where
there would be less crowding than ie
seen. on a busy winter day en that
skatingpond in New York's Central
Park.
Sketching this picture is like visual-
izing the great tragedy of the human
race—the few people of this earth do
not begin to realize their immense op-
portunities and their uaueed resourc-
es; meanwhile, they have the ineane
feeling that the world is "over -popul-
ated." All our science, our religion,
our art have not given us comma!i
sense enough to learn how to use
them to Hee comfortably and happily
—we, this mere handful of inhabitante
on this immense world of ours. Nor
does it look as if we were going to
get to our senses before many genera-
tions to come as long as we keep on
muddling and blundering; as long as
greed and vaiuity, lust for power, the
main inheritance of the aims and
thoughte of the past, together with
some of our time-honored traditions,
keep us in the cold, relentless grip of
by -gone ages, On the other hand, there
is that undeniable possibility that
those of the nations which may feel
peacefully inclined and trust to luck
by remaining unarmed, are liable at
the most unexpected time to be at
the mercy of the wild beast which.

A BIT MIXED.

One day a new pupil in a music set-

"Mother, how many carrots are there
In a bushel? Teacher wants to know"
"What?" answered the mother,
"What has that to clo with music?"
"I don't know," replied the child.
The next day the mother went to tlx
music school to inquire what kind of
musie her child was being tought.
The teacher laughed and said: "Well,
that Is hardly correct, madam. What wo
asked your child was how many beats
there were in a measure."
