When the sun is -high and the dust is deep, And the twilight quiet late; When the weary miles run dim ahead And far is a homeland gate; This is the time the tired heart. Worn with the weary load, Gathers ,the truth In the saying old:— "A cherry friend for a long, long road." On the road of life are the lofty hills That the feet ofmen must climb; And the deserts wait and wild winds bear . The gray miles' dust and grime; Then does the heart need friendship gay And the joy .of the pilgrim's code; Rich: is the one who eau journey with "A cherry friend on a long, long road." Though the road be gay or the road be sad Or the winds be harsh or kind, Though the rough trails mount to chill and snow Or run where the bright brooks wind, True to the end we should. ever be, Bearing a willing load; This is the name we should strive to claim: '"A cherry friend far a long, long road!"

W. TIIE FILL WEATHER HARD ON LITTLE ONES Canadian fall weather is extremely hard on little ones. One day is warm and bright and the next wet and cold. These sudden changes bring on colds, cramps and colic and unless baby's little stomach is kept right the result b may be serious. There is nothing to equal Baby's Own Tablets in keeping the little ones well. They sweeten the stomach, regulate the bowels, break up colds and make baby thrive, The Tablets are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. TWO Out of Three Fires Occur in Our Homes. The frequent occurrence of fires in 'dwellings is amatter that must re- ceive more careful attention on the part of householders. Statistics show that sixty-four (64) per cent, of all our fires, or, practically two out of every 'three, occur in the homes of the people. This is a terrible indictment 'on our node of life, and is the result of our careless habits. ' It is also a fact that men, women and children are equally guilty of causing this enormous fire waste. The Careless manner in which coal oil lamps and candles are used; and lighted matches and cigarette butts* are thrown around is sufficient evi- dence to show that our "habits" must `oe changed.

Only Real Nerve Tonicis a Good Supply of Rich, Red Blood. "It people would only attend to their blood, instead Of worrying themselves ill," said an eminent nerve specialist, "we doctors would not see .Our eon - suiting rooms crowded with nervous wrecks. More people suffer from worry than anything else." The sort of thing which. the .special- ist spoke of is the nervous run-down condition caused by overwork and the many anxieties of to -day. Sufferers find themselves tired, morose, low- spirited and unable to keep their minds on anything. Any sudden noise hurts like a blow. They are full of groundless fears, and do not sleep well at night. Headaches, neuritis and other nerve pains are part of the misery, and it all comes from starved nerves. Doctoring the nerves with poisonous sedatives is a terrible mistake. The only real nerve tonic is a good supply of rich, red blood. Therefore to cure nervousness and run-down health Dr. Williams' Pink Pills should be taken. These pills actually make new, rich blood,, which strengthens the nerves, 'Improves the appetite, gives new strength and spirits, and makes hither- to despondent people bright and cheer- ful. If you are at all "out -df sorts" you should begin curing yourself to- day by taking Dr. Williams' Pins Pills, You can get these pills through any dealer in medicine, or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. ii'illiama' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. From News Boy to Hereford Breeder. Frank Collicut, in the Province of Alberta, rose from a newsboy to be Canada's foremost Hereford breeder. Itis boyhobcl days were spent in an at- mosphere common to all other boys who have to snake a living in cities. His ambition to snake money had to be gratified by selling newspapers on the street corners. When the first newsboy's route was established in Calgary he got it, and his ability as a newspaper salesman became generally recognized. He applied for the posi- tion of newsagent when the Canadian Pacific Railway was being completed from Calgary to Edmonton, and he Wild papers, magazines and books on the first passenger train aver that railroad. This. environment brought him in touch with many ranchers and farm- ers in Alberta. He was ambitious, and big men took a personal interest in him. Among these was "Pat" Burns, a packer and rancher, who has been one of Alberta's most prominent citizens since the cowboys owned the ranges. Mr. Burns wanted young Collicut to herd cattle for him, and the monetary inducements and future prospects appealed to him sufficiently to take him from newspaper salesman- ship. He began the cattle business then, and the day he first sprang into the saddle marked a period of. pro- gress. Mr. Collicut saved his earnings and invested in grade cattle. He later be- came a buyer for Mr. Burns, and in these two enterprises, buying and in- vesting, he was singularly successful. After several years of experience in handling a grade herd and feeding steers in thousands, Mr. Collicut had an ambition to own pure-breds. His opportunity came when the pure-bred Hereford stock of the Bax- ter -Reed Ranching Co., in Alberta, was offered for sale in 1908. This herd had been imported direct from Here- fordshire, Etigland, after having been selected by one of Britain's most com- petent Hereford breeders. In 1908 pure-bred cattle were not so expen- sive as they are to -day, and his invest- ment for the 100 cows and young stock was not so formidable a consideration as it would be now. In the following year Mr. Collicut bought the herd of Simon Downie & Sons, of Alberta, in- cluding the cow, Sally, and the bull, Beau Perfection 11th; both imported from the herd of Warren T. MoCray in Indiana. Like the Baxter -Reed people he did not fully appreciate the . merit of im- ported English- cows, and was back- ward in paying the price necessary to purchase a bull that would give. best results on such high-class females. Importations were made from time to time from Mr. McCray's herd.. Fair- fax Perfection and Governor Hadley produced the best results in his herd up to the spring of 1916, when Mr. Col - licit bought Gay Lad 40th, by Gay Lad 6th, from O. Harris & Sons, for $11,900. This bull was only .a yearling .when brought to Canada, but he had been a junior champion in the United States .the previous season. To -day he has justified his purchase price many times over through his progeny, which now ramble about in large numbers at Willow Springs Ranch,, Mr, Collicut's chief ranch, 30 miles north of Calgary. Gay Lad blood has proved such a hap- py nick with imported cows that Mr. Collicut readily bought another Gay Lad, also by Gay Lad 6th, from the Glengarry Ranch, in Alberta, in 1918. The Glengarry Ranch purchased 80 Herefords at the 1917 sale of O. Har- ris & Sons and emopg these was Gay Lad 16th, which sold 19p $20,000. He was sold in 1918, to Mr. Colliout, to- gether with 30 females, and their in- crease at the same prioe, $20,000. Not only has Gay Lad 16th got a lot of beautiful calves for Mr. Collicut, but he was chelnpion. of Canada in .1918, 0,$id stood third in a strong class at the 1918 Interntitiohal, in Chicago. The 1919 Canadian show circuit will see group after group of Gay Lad calves ,.from Willow Springs Ranch. Anyone who is, inclined -to question the :ad- visability of buying a bull of ackuow- ledged superiority would no longer doubt if he were to see these calves., Their character, smoothness and uni- formity are unusual. A visit to this betel .' at -Willow Springs Itanoh reveals one of the most inspiring undertakings in Alber- ta's livestock industry. One would think that in locating a ranch Mr. Col- licut had eonght in all Alberta for the ideal location, and had found it. Nest- led. in a great coulee are found the most modern barns and practical Boise imaginable. Up and down this coulee the breeding herd rambles in comfort, winter and summer, night and day, with nothing but blue sky for . a roof, and the wooded banks of the ravine for walls. In summer they wade in luxuriant grasses and drink at will from a stream of spring water that originates in the banks *of the coulee. In winter they pick at hay and oat sheaves. The bulls and young things, together with the matrons suckling their babies, find shelter in the well -bedded boxstalls In the barns. All others welcome the freedom and uncozlventionalities of the outdoors. There is satisfaction in the uniformi- ty of Herefords properly bred and cared for.—Canadian, in Breeders' Gazette.. Toronto University Memorial. A rally for the Blue and White as well as a test of the loyalty of the Alumni of the University of Toronto is the campaign for half a million dol- lars which Is now being carried on by the Varsity Memorial Committee, the desire being to perpetuate in a Mem- orial Tower and Gateway and the es- tablishment of scholarships the re- cord set up in the Great War by near - 1y six thousand graduates and former students of :the big Canadian institu- tion. For the past two weeks a spirit- ed canvass has been carried on in To- ronto, and until the entire amount is raised the "drive" will continue throughout the entire world. But the campaign hang more ambi- tious motives that the creation even of scholarships for maimed heroes and the dependants of gallant Varsity men who fell, for when the money has been collected thousands of Alumni will have been got in touch with and the ties binding them to the old school will be of a durability hitherto un - thought of. "The campaign to raise a half -mil- lion -dollar Fund with which to per- petuate the memory of the graduates and students of the University of To- ronto who made the supreme sacrifice in the Great War will commend itself to" all Alumni of this great educational institution, declares Mr. R. A. Cas- sidy, an old U. of T. graduate, who is in charge of the campaign, adding: "The amount is small in the light of the huge sum subscribed or asked for other leading universities in North America. Harvard is in the midst of a canvass of its graduates and friends for an endowment fund of fifteen and a half millions. Princeton is seeking fourteen millions from its Alumni and well-wishers. Cornell has launched a systematic solicitation for five mil- lions. McGill secured a million and a half within a week, although the initial objective was but one million. The citizens of Halifax thought enough of Dalhousie University to oversub- scribe a fund of four hundred thous- and dollars within a week, and when Mount Ellison, in New Brunswick, needed endowment, a quarter of a minion was easily obtained from a small constituency. "But in none of these sacred efforts," went on Mr. Cassidy, "was there the inspiration that should be in the sacred cause undertaken by the Alum- ni Association of the University of Toronto. The desire to honor the heroic dead here is spontaneous and general. It was at first but a matter of deciding how it should be done. Opinion throughout Canada was can- vassed and the outcome was the de- cision to have the bulk of the Fund used for soholarships for soldier - students or their dependants and the erection of a Tower and Gateway be- tween the east wing and Hart House, including a structure in which the names of those who fell are to be re- corded." A Memorial Committee, going still further into a review of the campaign, was appointed at a general meeting of Alumni last Spring and it was final- ly decided that local and special scholarships can be provided by any community or individual and be cie- ..n:o•.•.e....,..s..............c.......,o,-e..e»sw.•awMi..a.q„o 1 i E " K L L -J OYS" • Constipation, Headache, P .

This, it was agreed, would permit widelatitude to. the Alumni .

A partial canvass for ,subscriptions was carried on in Toronto last May, but local conditions compelled sus- pension until the Fall. Solicitation in the city during the past fortnight has been attended by success, and still the fight roes• on to reach every graduate and former student through- oet the world: Campaign committees, organized in counties throughout On- tario, inevery large city in Canada outside of Ontario, in a number of centres in the United States, and in London for the British Isles, have done and are doingexcellent work, and it is now practically assured that the larger objective of the drive—to lay the foundations for Alumni Associa- tions wherever University of Toronto men and women are found in groups— will be attained. "It is hoped," says Mr. Cassidy, "that the time will soon conte when, distance from Toronto win mean as little to •Il. of T. men and women as distance from Cambridge does to Harvardttes. A Harvard graduate is a Harvard graduate wherever he is'. found and the same can be said of Yale, Princeton and other great Dei-'' versities."

Lecturing before the Society of Architects, Sir Charles Ruthen, a mem- ber of the Council, produced figures as to the country's housing needs" showing that even if the output of bricks increased two hundred and fifty per cent. it would be some fifteen or twenty years before the present shortage would be overtaken, says a London despatch, At the present time seven million people were improperly housed. The facts, he stated, showed the impossibility of the production of brick houses and the crying need of the immediate use of wood in building, Buy Thrift. Stamps.
