Sir PartabSingh, the famous soldier of indict, wants to die in the trenches if he has to die, and although the In- dian troops have gone from France to other fighting zones, Sir Partab has returned to the western front at his own request. This veteran Indian fighter, 71 years of age, comes of the mighty Rajput warr ors, anrl shite youth has followed the life of a sold• ler, An Indian writer .n one of the London newspapers in telling the story of Sir Partab, says: "Thirty-eight years ago Sir Partab went to ICabul,as a. member of the mission that was sent there. Nine- teen years later he accompanied the Mohmand, expedition as extra aide-de- camp to Gen. Ellis. The next year he served in the same capacity with Gen. Lockhart in the Tirah campaign on the Indian north-west frontier. While serving in the last campaign he re- ceived a wound in the hand, which fact, with Ms characteristic stoicism, he )lid from everybody until the Gen. noticed it and ordered the doctor to at- tend it—just in time to avoid blood p oisoning. ' "When the Indian troops were being sett to assist in. quelling the Boxer Rebellion in China Sir Partab per- suaded Lord Curzon, then Viceroy and Governor-General of India, to let him accompany'. the expeditionary force. While serving in China the Maharaja learned to hate the Prus- sians, who went out of their way to treat him and :other Indian rulers as 'coolies.' "Sir Partab is es good an adminis teeter as he is a soldier. His admin- istrative genius has been demonstrat- ed by .the work that he' did in Jorlh- pur—a state more than three times the size of Belgium and with about as many inhabitants as Denil ark—dur- leg his two terms of Regency and, another. as Prime Minister of that state. His rule over Idar, a state in the Bombay'Presidency, 2,0.00 square. miles in area, extending from 1902 to 1911, was also progressive and enlight- ened. He.voluntarily abdicated the gadi (throne) of Idar in favor of his 'adopted son in order . to assure the• Regency of Jodhpur." • That Knocking.

Few persons have ever given much thought to the sawdust problem, And yet --- Experts of the New York State Col- lege of Forestry estimate that 11 per cent. of the lumber cut in the United States every year is wasted in the form of sawdust. That is to say, in sawing the lumber, 11,000,000 feet of perfectly good timber is ground up and left to rot. Of course, it's impossible to saw up logs without making sawdust. But lumbermen are just beginning to ap- preciate the fact that there is value in this by-product, and that neglect to utilize it involves tremendous and un- justifiable waste. A little of the sawdust is used in the form of "wood flour," in malting stucco, molding, etc. There is oppor- tunity for the development of big in- dustries along these and similar lines. Vast quantities of the wasted sawdust might be used for the manufacture of wood alcohol. Many kinds of sawdust could be used, too, for paper pulp. All such adaptations of this supposedly worthless material not only serve to create wealth directly, but help to conserve our timber supply. Future generations may find saw- dust heaps more profitable than gold mines. A PATHETIC INCIDENT. Not long ago a gentleman who had been living fairly well and was thought well of, suddenly died. As was natural, one of the first things after his death, was the straightening up of his estate, and when matters were looked over and an inventory taken of what he was supposed to be possessed of, it was found that it would take almost every available cent to pay the outstanding obliga- tions which he had contracted, with a result that his family would be turned out upon the street. It was heartrending to see them en- deavoring to retain some articles of m most furnitureos to them. It look- ed as though the house which they had been accustomed to live in 'would have to go, but in packing up and rummaging through some of the fur- niture what was their relief when they came across .a policy for $5,000.00 which the late husband had been carrying unknown to his family in the Crown Life Insurance Company of Toronto. Notice of the death was sent the Company and a cheque was promptly issued. The: mortgage was paid off, the fur- niture was safe and there was a con- siderable amount left over for present needs. -This is an object lesson which should appeal to every one of us and one and all can make the same provision for the family' by insuring in the Crown Life. PARIS MARKETS DWINDLE. Few Flowers Sold—Ham and Old Iron Fair jlias Strange Features. • The Paris• flower markets have dwindled a good deal since the war, and some no longer exist, but the flow- er shops .ere .not doing badly . The lily of the Valley is now most in favor. It is the lucky flower, and on May 1, if a young man sent a bunch of it to a lady she felt she stood a chance of missing a little sorrow. But it is also a very profitable flower, and in the woods not . far from Paris where it grows in .abundance children and women gather it and tie it into bunches to send up to the Paris mar= RE CLEAN O.STICKINESS ALL DEALERS G.C.lriggs.8cSons NAmiiSSON Made in Canada. kets, not for a few pennies, but for a considerable number of francs.. The Ham Fair, which is joined to the Old Iron Fair, is also a typical Paris market, and this year was marked by many strange features. The sale of sausages, for which it is noted, was ostentatiously free from anything suggestive of German production, and one noisy wag stood by his stall in a fantastic costume and callett attention to the notice over his head which ran: "Taisezvous, meflez-vous, les pro duite ennemis nous degoutent," The turning of M. Millerand's fam- ous warning to talkative people in public places to suit his purpose pleas- ed the ham merchant and his cus- tomers enormously. The old iron and the curio ln.onge. ars also did a fair trade this spring.. Although the foreign artists who gen- erally throng there to find studies valuables were noticeably few, several soldiers on leave stood guard over motley collections of rubbish. No Connection. The Canadian Branch of the Queen Mary's Needlework Guild wish to dis- claim any connection with a chain- letber which: is being circulated in the name of the Guild by the New York Branch. Though responsibility in no way touches the Canadian Branch, the ladies here regret that such a method of obtaining money for the Queen's Gelid has been resorted to, and that it has got into this country, as the chain -letter system has long since been, condemned and fallen into dis- favor. IMAGE A PEACE BAROMETER. 1 French Expect Figure's Fall to Mark End of War. 'High overhead above the ruined and desolate streets of Albert, in France, the great gilded figure of the Virgin; with the infant Christ still hangs from the tower of the Church of Notre' Dame de Brebieres. For more than a year she has now hung thus, at an angle of some fifteen degrees below the horizontal, face downward to the street below, holding the infant out above her head. In local French belief the day when the holy figures fall will see the end of the war. The German shell which throws down the Blessed Virgin of Brebieres will shatter the throne of the Hohenzollerns, it is maintained.. During the last week of two the im- mediate region of Albert has been one of the most active on the whole front. From the neighborhood of Fricourt, by La l3oisselle, to Authville and beyond there have been almost nightly raids and blowing up of mines. rdinard's Liniment Lumber;man's Fiend Beginning at the Beginning Bridegroom—Now that we are married, darling, we must have no more secrets from each other.

Bee Rearing in Denmark. A carsfu1 study of the rearing of bees began in Denmark about�1864, The number of hives that year were estimated at 78,000, but in 1865 the total halli increased to 133.000. The, great advance in the number of hives was ; due to the new methods intro- duced, the most important being the so called Dzierzonske, by which the. honey is gathered without injury to the bees.

A good filter that 'will find favor with those who flnsl it necessary to Procure pure water from streams has been devised by A French scientist. An ordinary tin box is soldered to the bottom of a, metal water pail, The floor of the. box . is perorated 'with. row's of wholes 'whieh extend through the pail bottom. A coiled spring at- taches the cover of the box to the bot - tem and is made to aloes through a tin tube in the .center of the box, , Alter- nate layers of powdered canal d. well -packed cotton wool are now peau- ed in the box, and the pail is susperlld ed in a stream. Gradually, as a result of air pres- sure, the pail will fill up with filtered water, Then, by loosening the chain, the spring cover drop back on the box, and the pail, full of water, may be lifted out ofthe stream, The water play • be further sterilized by adding a few crystals of potassium' permanganate.. btinaid's Liabuent raed by Pbyelx4 ns, No Terrors For Him.
