Beeklow road depot was the one
chosen for . demonstration to the
Queen of the merits of the central
kitchen method. ` Her Majesty took
a great interest in everything, and
had under her especial care the meat
pies, for Which pink 3d. tickets wer
exchanged. Princess Mary dealt with
the popular penny blue tickets, whit
pp
were 'worth a largeportion of apple
pudding or a helping of boked pota-

The chief difficulty'with th Queen's
customers was that most of them had
forgotten to bring a receptacle for
their purchases, or, in their embarass-
ment,. forgot to produce it. •
One old lady held out a grubby
apron. The Queen looked at it, and
then gave` the sound advice that the
pie should be carried away in the
hands, for preference. "You, cannot
carry a pie in a jug,,. I expect you
were sent for soup" said the Queen
to one small child, and to a ' jolly.
little sailor boy, who' bowed prettily
as he thanked. her Majesty for ..his
portion, she bowed and smiled in're-

Queen Mary had distributed 500 pies,

`.CITE COST OF WAR IN BLOOD.
Twelve Hundred .Million Victims Dur-
ing Thirty Centuries.
In the wars of the last thirty cen-
turies about twelve hundred. million
persons have lost their lives.
1 The blood of these,victims of human
folly would fill a tank 780 feet high
and covering four city blocks.
Beneath the Pont Neuf, at Paris,
the River Seine flows at a rate -of 100
cubic yards per second. 'If the stream
were blood ,instead of water, fifty
hours would be required for the pass-
ing' of the quantity lost iii the war-
fare of the last 3000 years.
Much of this blood—indeed, a very
large part of it -has been shed in
quarrels over religion. But mainly
it has been poured out to dye the,
royal purple of the occupants of
thrones. Silly Billy, the Crown Prince,
told United States Ambassador Ger-
ard that kif war did not arrive before
his father's death he meant to 'start
one when he carne to the throne, "just
for the fun of it."
Battles in ancient times, when men
fought with primitive weapons, seem
to have beemno less c'estructive of life
than those of modern days. When the
Germans of 2000,years ago (Teutones
and Cimbri),were defeated by the
Roman general Marius, 200,000 dead
were left on the field.
Since then an average of 18,000,000
to 20,000,000 fighting men (not count-
ing noncombatants) have been killed
in European wars_ during: every cen-
tury.
This kind of foolishness has been
'going ;on long enough. The most im-
portant object that the Allies have in
view to -day is to put a stop to it.,
Every muscle in the body needs
constantly a supply of rich, red Blood
in proportion to the'work it does. The
muscles of the back are under a heavy
strain and have but little rest. When
h'e blood is thin they lack 'nourish-
ment, and the result is a sensation of
pain in those muscles. Some people
hink pain in the back means kidney
trouble, but the best medical authori-
ties agree that ,backache seldom ,or
never has anything to do with the kid-
neys. Organic kidney disease may
have progressed to a critical point
without developing a pain in the back.
This being the case pain in the back
hould always lead the sufferer to look
o the condition of his blood, It will
e found in most cases that .the use of
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills'` to build up
tare blood will stop the.sensation of
ain in the ill -nourished muscles of
the back. How much better it. is to
ry Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for the
food than to give way to unreason
bre alarm about your•. kidneys.' If you
suspect your Kidneys any doctor can
make tests in, ten minutes that will set
your fears at rest, o' tell you the
worst. But in any event to be'perfect
healthy you must keep' the blood in
cod` condition,,and far this purp.oie
ro other medicine' can equal Dr. Wil-'
Wil-'
ms' Pink Pills. '

Fortunate Escape When .Rocky Moun-
tain Cabin Was Buried.
During my stay_with the miners in
the San, Juan Mountains, says Mr.
-Enos A. "Mills in his book, The Rocky
Mountain Wonderland, there was one
very heavy storm that covered the
mountains deep. in snow. /
"This cabin will never be caught by
a snowslide!" said the prospector with
whom I was 'spending the night. "I
sized up the territory before building
this cabin. and I've put it idit of the
range of slides."
That was encouraging,, for daring
the afternoon, as I had come down
from Alpine Pass on snowshoes, the
peaks and slopes had loomed white
aria- threateningly, overladen with
snow. Avalanches would run riot dui.
ing the next few hours, and the eliding
might begin at any minute. Somewhat
acquainted with the ways Nof slides, I
lay awake in the cabin waiting to hear
the muffled thunderstorm of sound
that Would proclaim that slides were
"running."
The ,prospector was snoring before
the first far-off thunder came to my
ears. Things were moving... The
rumbling _ swelled louder and louder.,
Then came an earthquake jar, close-
ly followed by''a violently explosive
crash. A slide was upon us! ' A few
seconds later tons of snow :fell about
the cabin. Although we escaped with
out a scratch, a heavy spruce pole, a
harpoon flung by the slide, struck the
cabin at an angle, piercing the roof
and one of the walls,
The prospector was not frightened,
but he was mad!Outwitted by a:
snowslide! That we were alive was
rho consolation to him: '"Where on

of several feet about the cabin and on
op of. it were snow masses mixedwith
mock fragments, broken tree trunks'

AN EXCELLENT. SERVICE
For the last two years the Canadian
Pacific Railway, in connection with the
Pacific `steamers of the Canadian Pa-
cific Ocean Services, • has carried a
very 'large proportion of the passen-
gers from the United States to Russia,'
and as these passengers have included
a great many American railroad men
wht have been surprised at the excel
lence of the service, a remarkable
volume of trade. is developing, greatly
to the benefit of Canada itself. Among
these passengers was the American
Railway Advisory Conanrission, con
sisting ofthe leading railway experts
of the .United States; who travelled
from Chicago to Vancouver, . 'and
thence to Yokohama via the Empress
of Asia. Mr. Henry Miller, .vice -chair
min of this highly `impor�tant'dommis-
sion, has written; Vice -President G. M.
Bosworth a letter of deep appreciation,
in which, after referring to many in-
dividual'courtesies along the route, he
'remarks: "You have good reason to
be proud of your organization and
service, and we take this method of
thanking you heartily' for your kind-

A few drops of this new ether com-

aching corn relieves the soreness in-

callus, root and all, dries up and can
be lifted off with the fingers.
This new way to .-rid one's feet of

Fr8 CHMSWAS RIES ZE
pear Mr, Editor:-
Thanks for your kindness in allowing
me the privilege of appealing to your
leaders this Christmas time on behalf
of. the Hospital for Sick Children, Ufa–.
"Sweetest of all Charities,"; which has
as its mission the care of the helpless,
the sick, the crippled and the deformed,
There' never was a year in the his.
ory of the Hospital when funds to
larry on the work were more 'needed
than now.
Yo117 purse is the Hospital's IIope.
Your money lights the candles of
mercy on the Christmas trees, of
health that the•J-Iospital plants along
the troubled roadway of many a little
So I am askiug you for aid, for the
open purse of the Hospital's friend is
the hope of the Hospital at Christmas.,
just as the oi1.en door of the Hospital's
mercy is the hope of, the little children:
throughout the year.
Calls on generous hearts are many
in these times. Calls on the Hospital
are many at all• -times, and especially
when food and fuel and drugs and ser-
vice costs are soaring: high. YOU
know the high cost of living. Do you
know the high cost of healing—of.
helping the helpless to happiness?
What you do to assist is the best in-
vestment you
y will ever make.
Do- 3ou realize whatt this
charity is
doing for sick' children, not only of
Toronto, but for all Ontario; for out of
atotal of 3,740 in -patients ` last year
646 came from .254 places outside of
Toronto. The field- of the Hospital's
service covers the entire Province—
from the Ottawa to the far-off Kendra
—from the borders of the Great, Lakes:
to the farthest northerly district.
The Hospital is doing a marvellous. •
work. If you could see the children,
with crippled limbs, club feet, and
other deformities, who have left the
Hospital with straightened limbs and
perfect correction, your response to
our 'appeal would be instant. In the
Orthopedic Departments last year a
total of 330 in -patients were treated;
and in the Out -Patient Department
there were 1,946 attendances.
Let your money and the Iospital's
mercy lift the burdenof misery that
curses the lives, Cripples the limbs
and saddens the mothers of the suf-
fering little children.
Money mobilizes the powers of help
and healing for the Hospital's drive
day and night against .the trenches.
where disease and pain and death
assail the lives of the little ones.
Remember that every dollar given
to the Hospital is a dollar subscribed
to the Liberty Loan that opens the
prisons of pain and the Bastilies of
disease, and sets little children free
to breathe the pure ail?, and to rejoice
in the mercy of God's sunlight.

you can, to Douglas, Davidson, Secre,
