Nothing so appetizing and satisfying and nothing • • so easy to prepare. Made in Canada THE BRITISH the midshipman feels that it is indeed good to be an officer of the "King's. Na.vee." Always smiling, always with a goad- natured growl, he sets a good example to those under his command, and yet ho must be ever ready to deal with emergencies as they arise. In the turret or the control•top, when the shells are flyiug 'thick and fast and good n men are working p • .ressure whn any second may t top be his last, the midshipman proves to the i t - most the value of the training he has received in his schools, and adds even more lustre to the name he already in- herits in the traditions of the eea ser- vice. Also His Nerve. AM his life isn't all work. He plays' just as hard as lie toils. Gymnastics, Swedish drill, swimming and boating, hockey, tooter, cricket and golf --each in their due season—give him muscles of steel, nerves like piano -wire, and that proudest and best possession of all, a clean mind and a healthy body. All that the world has to teach he learns—learns in the cleazrest and best way from his comrades, his seniors, and his padre. Not long ago, after a, certain mid- shipman had been mentioned in des-, patebes, one of the oldest captains in'. the North Sea received the following signal : "Midshipman X to Captain Y.—If you've got nothing doing about ono o'clock I don't mind if 1. float along and take a drop of lunch with you.

Cen- turies before the Christian, era the great rivers of China were diverted from their natural courses, the wa- ters of one turned into another's bed and the waterways carried along in the direction of desired traffic. The ancient Grand Canal extends from Hangchou to Tientsin, travers- ing the provinces of Chekiang, Kiang- su, Shangtung and Chili, the total length of the canal' being about $50 miles, says the Christian Herald.

Psychologists who have carefully studied the characteristics of instinct in woman have discovered just why mothers sing their babies to sleep. It is not merely inspired by the expect- ` ation of better sleep in their children, I but it is the primeval call of the fem- inine nature. It is a maternal prompt- ing rompt ing which occurs naturally to each th S e mothers who area never known to sing upon other occ sions invariably hum and croon to their children at night, andupon one other instance, when they are plant- ing seed. It is a peculiarity of the Zuni native women and one, which has been but recently understood. The theory of primitive people is that there is some mysterious connection between the sound of a woman's voice and growing things.
