October 7tlh was Scout Day in Owen Sound. On .the•afternoou .of that date five local troops, rallied at the skating rink and, went through a programme' of events directed by District Commis- sioner D. E. Maclntyre and Scoutmas- ters Dr. Murray Fraser, Rev. J. L. Mc- Innis, Art. Nichol, Lorne Ferguson and. J. Clarke, Troops bad been expected from , Wiarton and Hanover, but a steady downpour of rain created con- ditions which made it irnpos,sible for these visitors to reach: Owen Sound. The first hour was, devoted to vari- ous sports, following which each troop demonstrated some ` branch of Scout training, such as First Aid, Sigii.ailing, and even weaving a camp mattress from reeds. A series of Scout manaeu- vers followed. Inthe meantime two small wireless outfits were 'erected, one at each end of the :rink, and when these were in operation >they attract- ed the attention of many visitors. The greatest attradtion from the boys' point of view was the supper. Reports indicate that no boys were absent when the order was to "dig in!" Scouting Hard Hit by Fire. A letter from Mr. H. Ellis Gridley, District Commissioner for 'Femiskam- ing, reports that Scouting in a num- ber of towns in the North, and espe- elally Haileybury, Hanbury and North Cobalt, were very badly hit by the re- cent fires, and that it will probably be a long time before it recovers from the results of this disaster. Mr. Grid- ley speaks -very highly of the services of Scoutmaster Severt and the Cobalt Scouts in relief work. Mr. Gridley got to Cobalt shortly after midnight on the night of the lire and found these boys doing work of real men, in help- ing in the care of ,the refugees._. One of the boys, Scout Moore, worked on the refugee train which ran between North Cobalt and Cobalt when: the fire was at its height. As there was no • k he on ane and Moore t fireman to stoke e t g was too young to do this job the regu- lar engineer took the fireman's place while the Scout managed the throttle, other tier stories of Scout heroism roism* and sacrifice during the big fire will probably be told when our officers up there find it possible to take sufficient time from relief work to record them. In the fire Mr, Gridley himself lost all his personal belongings -which a Catholic boy collected together and buried in a suit case for hint. Scouts Attend Wedding. The members of the 23rd Toronto Troop honored North Toronto's first Scoutmaster, Frederick Trant, on. the occasion of his marriage to Miss Kath leen Wodson. The boye formed' a guard of honor andas the happy couple left St. Clement's Church, where the ceremony took place, lined bottle sides of the walk and with their staves formed a continuous arch through which the bridal party march- ed. Mr. Trane was formerly Scout- master of the 12th North Toronto Troop and later :.Scoutmaster of the 23rd Toronto Troop, which he organ iced, . The present Scoutmaster of the 23rd Toronto Troop, Mr. W. N. N. Norrie, was in charge of the Scouts at the wedding, relief. If you are a victim of rheuma- tism or lumbago the way to rid your- self of it is by making ,the blond rich and pure, for only in this way can the rheumatic poison be driven from the, 'system, To 'enrich and purify the blood, Dr. Williams' Pink Pills should be taken. They act directly on. the blood, making it rich and red, and in this way the trouble disapiiears. Thousands of people have proved ,this, among them Mrs. H. King, Croydon, Ont., who says:—"I was attackedwith rheumatism in my right arm and shoulder. It pained me so,that I could 'not raise the arm., to comb my hair or feed myself.. I commenced taking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and after taking. three boxes I,aeemed.all right again. About six months later, however, the trouble came on again, this time in my left arm, Again 1 took Dr. Wil- liams' Pink ,Pills with the same bene- ficial results, and since then I: have had no return -of the trouble.' Now I. recommend Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Whenever I get a chance." You can get these pills through any medicine dealer or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes far $2.50 from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. What Solace.

'WY'Peace," When you eater a hospital you sec long rows of beds with: weak and die essed and broken bodies; you- ace faces drawn with pain; you see tired nurses after long nights of 'vatciiing and ministering; and sonietinies you. leo heartbroken relatives, desolate in their loneliuess. Because ofrthose thing it aceined strange and wonderful to .rind in one of the city hospitals, an' example of the perfect peace --a, little eight-year-old girl. She had suffered for many months, and at last her relatives had brought her to the'hospital fora seri- ous • operation, the result of which. would be either death or life with re- stored health and happiness. The surgeon believed that, with good luck the child might survive,, 'The attendants expected a some- what distressing scene when the ether was given and were trying to . harden their hearts against the cries of fear that frequently occur at such a time, The moment came, and the attendant' approached with the ether. The ohild lay watching with close attention, Then suddenly, instead of a cry from her lips, a most beautiful and winsome smile like the opening, of a flower over- spread hesmall white face. Then she. closed her eyes and reverently, as if at -her mother's knee, repeated in a low, sweet voice: "Now I lay me down to sleep; I pray the Lord my soul to. keep. If I,should die before I wake, Iray, the Lord My soul to take." Ipy There was silence for a moment asp tear-filled eyes turned away. Then quietly ' and confidently the serious work began. ; All nervousness, all strain .and -anxiety had departed, for the peace of God, which passeth all Understanding,—and which was hers, —had filled their hearts.

Health' Confessions of Business Girls. Every business girl knows' better than anyone else that it takes -<a great deal mf careful ,planning for her to Beep herself continually up " to the mark, 'both mentally and physically. Just look at her day for a moment.. A third of it is spent at work, where she wants to be physically well, nicely dressed neat in her person, active self-�control- of all minded -and most led. • For these eight hours -the must • efface her own moods and be some- thing off a ,machine, cheerful, and. serene and on the spot. Another third of her life is spent in sleep. For this she must provide herself with some kind of sleeping quarters, must con- trive to keep sufficient time for sleep and also to sleep during the time kept. This may mean the refusal of invita- tions which would cut down her sleep or simply the avoiding of tea or coffee if they keep her awake. There remain only •eight hours in which to eat, dress, shop, see her friends, take exercise, keep body and clothes in good repair, and according tocircumstances, per- haps do housework and possibly .de- velop me talent. Quite obviously it is bound to be "close going,"./and to do it ,successfully needs (1) a reason- ably healthy body in good running order; (2) ability to organize and plan wisely; (3) self-discipline.
