A Gimple way to prevent appen-

on your knees, bend backward un -

She same time, bend the upper
part of your body forward as far as
possible. Do this six •or ten times.
You may vary -the exercise by
standing with heels together and
toes pointing straight forward, and
then stooping in a sitting posture
until the knees touch the chest. Do
this also six or eight times slowly.
The effect is to stir up the intes-

common formula for sins cannect-
ed with worship. In the verses
which fellow a catalogue of these
sins is given, their chief condem-
nation being that they were a re-

true of the Baal and Asherah cults.

Hezekiab had destroyed the coun-
try sanetuaries as eeats of eorrup-

All/1Z was the first judaean king'
to perform this rite, which eon -
sited in actually sacrificing and
burning the victims. In later years
of the kingdom, this mode of wor-
ship was not infrequent. The
valley of the son of Hinnom (so
called perhaps from some hero who
encamped there), was situated ,
south and southwest of Jerusalem,
and was the seat of human sacrifi-
cial w.orship. Later it came to be
termed "Valley of Slaughter." (II),

Manasseh also fostered people pos-
sessed of supposed ilowers of di-
vination, and who professed to have
intercourse with the spirits of the
dead (compare 1» Sam. 23. 7, and
Acts 16. 16). -Ventriloquism was

these wizards (Isa. 8. 19). ,

Jehovah had ordained that no name
should forever be localized in the
temple but his own, whereas this
adt made Asherah (perhaps the fe-
male deity Astarte) the presiding
genius of the house of God.

influence for evil was stranger than
that of any previous king of Judah.

he prophesied should befall the, na-

is it important for the preserva-

Were the rivers to run short ,the
resulting, lack or moisture in die
soil would seriously interfere with
the quantity of 'rain and other
produce reaped from the fertile
prairie.
--During tho whole of the past sum-
mer (1910) two parties of the Do-
minion Forest Service were in the
field marking out the boundaries
of the reserve. Both these parties
started from Calgary; one worked
south and succeeded in getting .as
far south as the international boun-
dary, while the other, working
north, reached a point almost due
west of Laeombe (Alta.). During
the corning summer the location of
the boundary will be centinvaid, and
it is expected that the entire east-
ern boundary of the reserve (which
extends some forty to fifty miles
north of the latitude of Edmonton)
will bo (let ern) ined
The general principle governing
the fixing of the boundary of the
reserve was that only forest land
should be includeat in the reserve,
all land fit, for farming (unless in
area, so small that it was not worth
-while to make the exception) being
excluded from the reserve. The al-
titede, or height of the country
above sea -level, was one of the
chief considerations 50 fixing the
line.
It was found that the boundary
fixed by. the Order in Council by
which the reserve was set apart
was, to a considerable extent, un-
suitable. It included, in the words
of one of the writers, "Only alpine
country, a large portion of which
is above the tree limit and the re-
mainder unsuitable as regards
timber supply for years to come.
Large portions of it have been

wood growth. Much country eaet.

EITECTS Or ROT WEtTIUR,

We have had some Pretty warm

heat whieh 'prevails in some parts
of the American contioent every

Ohicago suffers greatly in this res
speet, and the inhabitants resort to
all kinds of expedicnts
themselves, One day, 'when the at-
mosphere was more than usually
oppressive it actually provoked
dumb man to speech
His name was Louis Mendelson,
and he had not been known to
speak fel r the long period of tiven-
tysone years. But on the day in
question the heat became so intense
that even, the speechless could no
longer keep silent about it.
To the amazement of the persona
addressed, be suddenly burst out
with the question: "Is it hot
enough for you?" Quite a com-
mon remark, but it surprised those
who happened to bear
It was a startling affect which tho
heat had on a couple of young lad-
ies at Douglas, in the Isle of Man,
last summer. Well-dressed, they
were strolling along the Marino
Promenade, whom the sun's rays
made the water so inviting. that
they simply walked into just as
they were,
Such indifference to their spick-
and-span array almost took the
spectators' breath away. This,
however, did not trouble the two
damsels, who splashed about and
cooled themselves, while a htughin
crowd of holiday makers enjeye
the unique scene.
Then the twain irmale for terra -
firma, boarded a tramcar, and pro-
ceeded to their lodgings to change
their clamp garments for dry ones.
A somewhat different eonstruc-
tion was placed en the action of
a well-dressed ,son of Erin whom
the heat had goaded into plunging
into the Thames.
When he took his plunge with his
clothing on, the river watermen
pulled off to the rescue. This was
more than the bather had bargain-
ed for; and, when» he saw his would
be rescuers preparing to use a
boathook. he felt it would be bet-
ter to "take his hook" than be
taken by theirs.
This, however, proved impos-
sible, and, to convince them that
he was not on self-destruction bent
he roared at the top of his voice:
"Can't you let a fellow have a
quiet swim on a day like this 1"
But his roar was nothing to the
roar' of laughter which tgent up
from the spectators at this unex-
pected sally.
What was described as a "Start-
ling scene on the Terrace" was re-
ported in» the newspapers one hot
summer not long since. Passen-
