Animated by love for the beauti- fol oaks of England, Mt, Charles Hurst started from Manchester on, a famous planting walk which he has commemorated most=?charmingly in his recent Volume, entitled "The Book of the, English Oak." Not content with planning to leave a track in the form of a noble line of oaks of his own planting scatter- ed along a portionof his path through Lancashire, Mr, Hurst, with considerable cunning, enlisted four tramps in the cause,with such success that the lazy fellows plant- ed fifty acorns in an hour. The miracle begin evith the re- quest for a penny by a beggar who admitted that he was a snow -shovel- er in summer and a haymaker in winter, and that his friends were in. the same occupations, '"Now lookhere," said Mr. Hurst, "I can find yon all a grand job with better pay than you ever got before, unless you have been cabinet ministers, bishops or man- aging directors. Ask theta to come here. "My Christian friends," he went on, as they stood round, "you see diose seeds( If you will plantthem eel I direct, I will give you two- pence apiece for path one you ,set, Who salt's tiillingl Mr. Burst spread about fifty corns, brought from home, on lits handkerchief, He gave each man an acron that, at a given signal, he must plant at one of the marked places, and then return for another. lIe poifited out thet under this ar- rangement the amount of their earnings depended on the vigor of their exertions, for the more ener- getic the snap the greater his pro - Portion of the whole Burn, set aside for oak -culture, "Shadee of Sherwood!" to con - Visite in, Mr. Iliirst's own words.

Great .Britain Has Seventy -live of This Type of Tassel. More and marc importance is be- ing attnched by European naval '' and military authorities to submar- ines and aeroplanes. Russia, Tur- key, France, and Germany all hi - Chide submarines in their new de- fence schemes. England seems to have similar ideas, for there are now seventy-five submarines coin, plotted or under construction in British yards. That the modern submarine is no Very frail affair, or difficult to manage, is proved by the fact that one flotilla has just travelled nine thousand miles out to Hong Kong and another to Malta in the Medi- terranean. Both had stormy pas- sages; yet no damage was suffer- ed. The latest, or "E" type of Brit- ish submarines, is a tremendous ad- vance on previous achievements. Experts believe there are some no- table improvements yet to bead- ded, so that within a few years the displacement will be up to 2,000 tons and the vessels will be able to travel under water by day and :on the sttrface at night. By that time the old-time destroyers will be hopelessly out of date, Easy Breakfast! ea sii A bowl of crisp Post e. T s s and cream- the thing's done!

At present they are of 800 tons displacement and can travel on the surface up to fifteen knots.

So great isthe progress shown, indeed, that among naval hien the sub- marine has come to be regarded as the most destructive arm of na- val warfare for the future, DEATH AFTER. A SCRATCH. Morris Quatzam, an eleven -year- old Windsor boy, fell off his bicycle and scratched his wrist. He thought nothing of the injury, but blood poison set in and he is dead, Such incidents as these -'-by no means infrequent -ought to .make people realize the danger that may lie even in the smallest' wound. Take a simple illustration. When a knife, a rusty needle, a splinter of dirty wood, a barbed wire fence, or a thorn, seratobes the hand the latter is inoculated with: germs,. The way to avoid serious results is ta` cleanse the wound and apply Zana -Burr. Gals -:Duk is a powerful yet painless germ -killer, and when applied to that broken skin is ab- sorbed into the tissue, instantly destroying the germs that spread disease and stopping the pain and smarting.

A clergyman was accustomed to use scientific terms which the people did not understand. A. deputation', waited an him with the request that in the future, whenever he used such terms, he would ersplal,in them. On the following Sunday he used the term "hyperbole," and ad- ded :— "As agreed „on, 2 beg to explain this word. Were I to say that at this nionient the whole of mycon- gregation are sound asleep, et would be hyperbole, but if I say that one,half are asleep that is 'ot hyperbole, but the truth," The next day the'. deputation again called to say that the minis- ter need not explain technical terms.

THJi BENEVOLENT BUTLER. A Calcutta correspondent reports "a truly 'horrible incident" which befell an. English lady. Her "but- ler" was in the habit of calling loudly beneath her window every evening about 7. His cry suggested that he was calling either the cat- tle or the chickens home; but though she had neither, the lady for some time took no notice. Un- til one evening, having the curiosity to look. she was horrified to see the butler, like a dusky pied piper, sur- rounded by a troop of rats! There were quite fifty of them, from the big bandicotes to small muskrats, all being fed on the remains of her soup, meat and other bits. In a plague country this was an amuse- ment that was speedily ended. 'Does ,you son indulge much in piscatorial exercises. "No, he don't care for nothin' but to go off fishin'."

Abrams, has recently been mak- ng a special study of the restora.- ion to life praetised by the Jap- anese, and while he does net fully explain why the men •eoane back to life after being to all, intents dead, he does tell how it, is done, and this in itself is interesting. Ip jita-jitsu if a man is knocked o beaten senseless, ut killed or oth- erwise mauled, and if a roan has been killed by a sunstroke or by drowning the restorer rolls the pati- ent on his face and extends his arms sidewise, Then he strikes the pati- ent en the seventh cervical verte- ra, with his wrist severely, andre- gularly until the patient recovers consciousness. Immediately he is placed in sitting posture, his arms rotated. and he is aided is walking, for otherwise he relapses into ugeon- seionsness immediately, and in some cases dies at. once, This system of pounding the set'- enth'vertebra has been found pectal-- rly beneficial in some acute bear i liseases and the effects of the treat, t under Japanesemanilltllataon seeirl almost nirraculous at times, As yet there seems to be no clear, medical explanation of the effects of pounding the seventh vertebra, but the genuineness of the cures and re- suscitations frequently described by travellers Ls now scientifically es- tablish by Prof. Abrams's invest- igations, CANADA lIUSIH>TS8 COU,a,EG CHATHAnt, -ONT. o1E Op A31ERrO, 'S CRE:ATEilT' BUSINESS SSCI1Q0LS Over 2,t Choice, positions Acott In past Four Years.
