CANADA AS A PAPER MAKER. Capacity to Produce Pulp Wood ii Enormous Quantities. Indications point to Canada as one of the most important pulp and paper producers of the world for many years. There is no reason; except apathy respecting fire -protection in the pulp producing regions, why Can- ada should not paoduee perpetually a large part of the world's paper. The large spruce forests in the east and north ineludiug the sub -arctic forest which has value chiefly for pulp, show Canada's capacity to grow suitable wood in enormous quantities, sufficient with any kind of protection and man- agement, to supply the demand of all time. Pulp forests are, however, particularly susceptible' to fire, and need careful protection, It is gratifying to see thatsome of the most progressive pulp companies are successfully protecting their lands from fire. On account of the comp paratively rapid growth of pulp tim- ber to a commercial -Size it appears that pulp companies will be the first who can prove that scientific forest management is good business for a For Bright ring a A sports frock in all its glory is here illustrated.'

One of the oldest native Madagas- car industries is the curing and manu- facturing. of silk into what is called "lambamena"; "lamba" in Malagasy means dress shroud, or. clothing, and "mena" means red. "Lambamena" is made front a heavy grey native silk " principally in the Betsileo country, in the; southern part of the Central Pla- teau. This material was originally used for wrapping' the bodies of pro- rninent natives for burial. The more I celebrated or wealthy the deceased or e his relatives here, the more- 'lamba- s mena was used, but this custom is be- ing gradually discontinued. 1.�7'a�" pt�� � `kg&'��`I�'u�l 9 3 � c . �, � Can Obtain' New Health Through the Use of Dr. Williams' Pink hills. t very woman at some time needs a tonic.

Acting 'on the advice of the actuary, the Society decided to re -adjust its rates and place itself upon -a basis which will give it at least 100% actuarial solvency.

There is a . mixture of odors.. Onions fight for precedence with stewed apples, boiled cabbage with rice and pastry. The floor runs with water from the steam grease frons the cooking, 'and mud front the workers' boots.' Hither and thither run these "men, shouting, swearing, and then bursting into song.. The corporal has the responsibility of the cooking, and smiles through it all, admonishing' this man, issuing ', an order to that one. He possesses the delightful knack of being obeyed without commanding. Yet this quiet little man becomes ruffled after the week is finished—that is, after the meals are served. Ignoring hie,' own feed, he waits for the complaints to come in. LIere are a few: • Hut X1,—Porridge not cooked; tea Ilike washing-up water. Hut )i2.—Porridge over -cooked, meat like leather, tea too sweet. Flut X3. —Tea not sweet enough, meat too fat, not enough butter. So it goes on for half an hour, un til, in sheer -desperation, the unfor- t tunate corporal Seizes some food and rush's off to his noisy hut to try to get a "little rest" before he is needed to prepare the next meal.

GERMANY MUST BE HUMBLED. American Visitor in England States Attitude of British People. The fact is that, whatever the Brit- sh people thought at the beginning f the war, they are realizing more nd more, every day, that' there is omething between them and Germany which cannot be compromised. The war began over Belgium, to be sure. There was. never' any jingo spirit in the people, no matter what -the press was saying. But very 'gradually the real reasons of the conflict began to become common knowledge. Intelli- gent people may decide that there can be no solutionin' the field, or that it would be better to leave Germany and Austria intact. But the great mass of people believe that Germanythas done unspeakable wrong. -•:And they think that what they are doing is an un- spealcable-right. They never speak of it, at any rate. But they think of it, night and day. Life goes on almost as usual, getting harder and harder, of course. But they are not flinching. The terms of peace are 'definite enough foe- the average Briton. He knows what he is fighting for and he is not concerned with territorial ques- tions. He expects the Allies to pool their demands atthe end and to ad- just them. But one demand thy will not adjust, because,.it is the same for all. That is that Germany shall not rule over central Europe.

The big pythons and rocksnalces are harmless, but as one travels from the tropics southward the dangerous var- ieties increase in numbers, and in Tas- mania all are venomous, though only fire are really deadly, had, fortunate- ly, these are rarely seen. The continent is also abundantly supplied with lizards.

Why Steel Ships Float.: Steel ships differ.from those of wood in that their hulls are nhade of Steel plates riveted together, instead of the old method of using wooden planking. They are enabled to float because, be- ing hollow, they, have what is called buoyancy.. A steel ship displaces a volume of water equal in weight to its own. The principle of buoyancy may be tested by floating an iron pail in a bathtubful of water. iaiard's Lini;nent Cares rizstem-per. The Differen Ye.
