M, Bos- worth, the wife of the chairman of the Canadian Pacific Ocean Services, Limited, went through witbout a hitch.. The ship is 653 ft, long, 77 ft. 9 :ins. wide and has a depth to. the bridge deck of 53 ft, 6 ins. Her gross ton- nage is about 22,000 tons,, and she is arranged to carry about 490 first class, 106 second class, 238 third class pas- sengers, and 547 of a crew.

In our opinion, says the Kansas City Times, this Iligginsville soldier de. serves the medal for skill in breaking bad news. His letter said: "How is everyone at home? I ant fine and dandy. Say, mother, you ought to have seen my new bed last night. It was one of the nicest white ;item beds, with springs, mattresses, sheets, blankets and a soft pillow. It was in a hospital, where I am now, The front is the only place I see any fun now. As I haven't been paid for six months, I am near broke, The best type of swine have been evolved from the experience of breed- ers and packers. MInard's Liniment For Dandruff, Long Thumb—Strong Will.

'Well-developed, reasoning faculties are possessed by those people" who have 'thumbs, the 'second" "joints" of which ire long. • Thumbs that work easily are owned by careless, happy-golueky, spend- thrift individuals. A stiff, firm -jointed thumb, however, shows that the per son is keen, tactful, self-possessed, and cautious—the sort of man who will get on in the world,. CHILDHOOD INDIGESTION Nothing is more common in child- hood than indigestion. Nothing is more dangerous to proper growth, more weakening to the constitution or more likely to pave the way to dan- gerous disease. Fully nine -tenths of all the minor ills of childhood have their root in indigestion. There is no medicine for the little ones to equel Baby's Own Tablets in relieving this trouble. They have proved of benefit in thousands of homes. Concerning them Mrs. Jos. Lunette, Immaculee Conception, Que., writes; "My baby was a great sufferer from indigestion, but the Tablets soon set her right, and now I would not be without them." Baby's Own Tablets are sold by meal, clue dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box front The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co,, Brockville, Ont, Peaceful Autumn.

As soon as anything new comes into the lives of Our sailors they at once find a nickname for it,. say .a London weekly. Thus, when wireless came, its" operators were immediately dub. bed "Sparks" by the entire Navy. Weird and strange is the vocabulary of aur sea dogs: Almost any words seem to serve --provided they have no apparent relation to the thing referred to. A soldier is 'a "grabby" or "leath- er -neck," But a "soldier's wind" means nothing military—it is merely a fair breeze. A marine calls his bluejacket pal a "flatfoot," in return for which he is hailed as "Joey," The ship's cook is "slushy," and an artificer is "chippy chap " . Even the chaplain does not escape. He is the "devil dodger," A grumbler "flogs the cat," while a bad-tempered man "lies under the truck." A "schooner on the rocks" isn't as ominous as it sounds—it is just a pan of vegetables; while pre- served meat is "Fanny Adams." A "fanny," however, is a tot of rum. A funny man is "Cuts," and a story- teller is "Tom Pepper." "Gold dust," of course, is the paymaster, though the leas respectful call him "Fusser" and "Paybob." The commander is the "bloke." A "holiday" isn't a good time, it is a gap left in the clothes -line when washed garments are hung up to dry, A "handy billy" is a small pulley; and the "bullgines" drive the ship, The order "Haul away handsomely;" does not mean pull bard, but pull slowly and carefully. A gunner is "Sue lights," because he is responsible for the "fireworks." The master-at-arms is "Jaunty"; a ship's corporal a "crusher"; a petty officer is "Tanky," "Sailors are "matloes," and "And- rew is the Navy. FREQUENT HEADACHES A DANGER SIGNAL The Victim Nearly Always Suf- fers From Weak, Watery Blood. There are few ailments that cause more genuine misery than nervous or sick headaches. Only those who have endured the suffering, sometimes for days at a stretch, can realize the agony of the victims. Noises increase the pain; food is unthought of, for it only adds to the distress, When the attack is on there is little to be done until it passes away. These head- aches are nearly always a danger sig- nal that too frequently pass. unheeded. They are the symptoms of many mala- dies, such as anaemia, constipatlop, indigestion, etc., and when these are cured the headaches permanently dis- appear, Headaches are more often,e, sign of weak, watery mood than any- thing else, and the most successful treatment, therefore, is a remedy that will rebuild the blood and make it rich and red. This can best be done through a fair course of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, which has a special action on the blood, and through the blood on the nerves. In this way Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills have been found in- valuable in a wide range of diseases due to poor, watery blood, such as anaemia, rheumatism, indigestion, af- ter effects of influenza, neuralgia., etc. The effectiveness of this tonic treat- ment is illustrated in the following case: Mrs. Geo. Arn, R.R. No. 6, Sinr- coe, Ont., says:—"Some years ago my daughter, then a young girl of eleven, became very much rut! Gown and ner- vous. She was troubled greatly with sick headaches, and frequently with vomiting spells,. and although we lived just across the road from the school, she was not able to attend. She was' taking medicine all the time, but it did not seem to do her any good. I had often read of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and finally decided to give them to her. By the time she had taken two boxes she seemed much better, and before the fifth box was finished, she was again in the best of health and has always since enjoyed the best of health. I am satisfied it was Dr. Williams' Pink Pills that restored.her, and I have since seen equally good re• sults in other cases." You can get Dr. Williams' Pink Pills through any dealer iia medicine or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams' Medicine•Co., Brockville, Ont: That Grievance. Have you got a grievance? We most,. of us have; yet harboring a grievance is one of the most foolish forms of hoarding. Women usually have a great many more grievances than men, They are more introspective, also more intui- tive. They feel even the plights they cannot see. Men are more frankwith one another. If they are annoyed they say so; women sometimes smile, even when they feelvery hurt. It is a well-known fact that many' women -run concerns—including clubs —break down owing to disagreements among the 1adiee. • Women 'take of- fence, and as has been said already, they do not always show it, but they nurse' a grievance; until it becomes a bittersense of -wrong and a heavy mind burden. Now, why shouldn't we have any grievances? It's wrong and un -Chris= tian, of course, but never :mind that for the minute; we must avoid them out of expeddency. They will hurt us far more than the person against whom we, feel aggrieved. I have' a 'relation --we most of us have -who almost always has a "quer-' Edge Before and After Stropping (Magnified), It's the stropping that counts ! Any razor is soon ruined by unskilled stropping. There is one and one only razor that sharpens itself — the AutoStrop Razor. You can't strop it wrongly— just slip the strop through the frame and a few strokes to and fro will renew the blade edge. Any dealer will demon- strate the AutoStrop Razor to you, guarantee satisfac- tion, or refund of purchase price. Only $5.00 complete with strop and twelve blades in an attractive assort- ment of gages to suit any purpose. AutoStrop Safety Razor Co., Limited AutoStrop Building, Toronto, Canada 201 rel" on with some member of the family, Someone has not invited her, or they have slighted her, or done or left undone something, and she seizes upon it, and has a "grievance." This grievance she carefully nurses until it becomes a full-grown child of real un- happiness. It's a nasty, spoilt child, too, and she always brings it with her when she comes to call, and Iets it annoy you while she shows it off. Of course, we can all make griev- a;rces. They are easily made—you needn't work overtime to get them done. You only want a great sense of your own importance, much conceit, a narrow outlook, and a thorough want ot sympathy with everyone else to start a whole crop of grievances. So let's get rid of them before they spoil our lives. We must throw them off, and make an effort to leave them on the sands of Time. Let the broad sea of selfishness and understanding sweep them away into its depths. Oh, What a Surprise! The christening shad gone off splen- didly, and even the very juvenile "star" had behaved beautifully; though the name he had received, "Reginald Homer," would seem to be sufficient justification for a revolt. In the vestry afterwards, the clergy- man was making the usual entries. When writing down the second name, he paused thoughtfully. - "Strange," he thought, as he re- called the original Homer, the great Greek poet- "It's a curious name for the sonny of a navy." Then he turned to the proud father, "Your favorite poet?" he asked, pointing to the name. "Poet, sir," repeated the man., with a surprised look. "Poet, sir? Lor', no; I keeps pidginsl" MONEY ORDERS.

Although wool prices. declined to some extent this season, farmers should not be too anxious to get out of the sheep business: A fair-sized flock of sheep on the average faint will never be a losing proposition. The tendency among shippers of farm produce, in view of increased °railroad freight rates, is to favor good roads and the use of motor trucks. Will any but the highest type of road meet the demands of the increased amount of heavy traffic, and will the cost of such' roads be less than the increased cost of railroad 'freight service?

Thought He Knew Better, Johnny paid his first visit to a farm the other day. All his life, he had lived in the heart of a great city, and when he suddenly came in sight of a hay -stack, he stopped and gazed earn- estly at what appeared to him as a new brand of architecture, "Say, Mr, Smith," he remarked to the farmer, pointing to a haystack, "why don't they have doors and win- dows in it?" "Doors and windows!" smiled the farmer. "That ain't a house, Johnny,. that's, hay." "Don't try to kid me, Mr. Sinai'!" was the scornful rejoinder.

"We had just spotted a Ger- man machine gun nest with about twelve enemy gunners that were hold- ing up our advance. We located the nest and put the first shot right in the middle of the Jerries."

Make Love ---Live Long. The art of love-rnaking has a direct l infttuence on the heart and blood, It stimulates the working capacity of the former organ, and keeps it up to con- cert pitch. As a result, the blood cir- culates with greater strength, and `every part of the body is accordingly strengthened. Love -making, moreover, has a very decided influence in stimulating the working of the liver. Patent medt eines would have to go out of business to a considerable extent if the, world were more generally given to the art of making love with genuine feeling.
