No. 1, Milverton, Ont., writes : "Two ;years ago last spring 1 was run down, had nervous prostration, and was in a terribly nervous condition. I could not sleep or eat, could seareely count the nights that I passed without sleep, and if I did vat, haat sick lm:,inlae les and vomiting spells. My limbs would swell so badly that it hurt me to walk. I would jump up in ped, awaken- ed by bad dreams. In fact, I was so bad, thought I could not live, and started to use 1)r. C'hase's Nerve Food without much hope. "It was not lung before I began to improve under this treat- ment, and 1 can truthfully say it has done me a world of good. It took some time to get the nervous systema restored, but I kept right on using the N,`rve Food regularly, and gradually gained in health and strength. 1 have a fine baby boy nosy. He weighed 12 lbs. at birth, and, though may friends were anxious after the condition I was in. I 'trot over that fine, and now weigh 120 lbs. Before using the Nerve Food I was a mere skeleton."

Compare this with the gasoline consump- tion of the Sixteen -Miles -To -The -Gallon car. Six thousand miles is a fair season's travel. The Sixteen -Miles -To -The -Gallon car, going six thousand miles. burns up one hundred and thirty-five more gallons of gasoline than does the Ford going the same distance. This means that the Ford owner saves enough during a single season to pay for his gasoline for an additional thirty-three hundred and seventy-five miles.

Signed on behalf ot the pupils of Bluevale school: Margaret Garniss, James Dobie, Harvey Haney, Roy Thomhson. Mr. Winch made a fitting and modest reply and as he took his seat the audi- ence gave him three hearty cheers. After a few genial and appreciative remarks by Rev. C. Tate, a song by Jean Black and a recitation by Elsie Allison the proceedings closed with "We'll never let the old flag fall," and the pupils shook hands with their teacher in farewell as they passed out. On the previous Sunday evening Private Winch was presented with a 161st Battalion signet ring by the mem- bers of the Westminster Guild of Knox Church. Miss Lila Gray read a comp- limentary address and James Dobie made the presentation. BLVJt^%'ALE. (Intended for last week) School closed on Friday last and on the closing afternoon the pupils held an informal farewell to their teacher, Pte. Leslie S. Winch of the 161st Batt. who enlisted several weeks ago, but secured permission to remain on duty till the end of the term. During the year which he has spent in Bluevale school Pte. Winch has been very popular with the children although the mangement of one of the largest schools in the in- spectorate required the excercise of strict discipline and the training of an extra large Entrance class. the opening of school gardening and the many improvements to the grounds which demanded his oversight made him an unusually busy teacher. A considerable number of adults joined the children in givinghim a hearty send-off. Tennis, I croquet, and football displaced the re- sources of the spacious grounds for recreation purposes and the new "giant stride" was a centre of interest. At five o'clock the school bell called those present indoors where the program opened with the school yell given by the pupils. After a solo by Margaret Garniss and a recitation by Beatrice Dobie, the presentation to the teacher of a suede leather money belt was made by Harvey Messer, Ella Dot5ie reading the following farewell address, — Bluevale School, June 23, 1916. Pte. Leslie S. Winch, 161st Battalion. Dear Teacher,— We have known for several weeks that you were going to leave us at the end of this term; the time has now come to part and we say good- bye with sorrow for we shall miss you. During the past year you have been our kind friend and companion as well as teacher. You have made us all feel attached to you by your hearty interest in our plans and pro- jects, your warm-hearted and friendly disposition, by your interest in the welfare of our school and because you played with us as well as worked with us. Although knowing that you were so soon to leave us it did not make you take any less interest in improving our school surroundings but you have worked hard to make the school and grounds a place of , beauty and a place for good times Children Cry FOR FLETCHER'S Ce'er.ST O R I A THOUGHTS Was Troubled Stomach and alvei FOR SEVEN YEARS.

Bits About the Enchanted City of the "Arabian Nights." Immortalized by Haroun-al-Rasehid, in the story of the "Arabian Nights," Bagdad, which has a population of about 150,000, was built on the ruins of an ancient Babylonian city dating back to 2000 B. C. Records have been found on ancient bricks establishing its early date. Ever since the days of Haroun-al- Raschid the Jews have been the lead- ing figures in the commercial world of Bagdad. There are 50,000 of them, with about 8,000 Chaldean (or hereti- cal) Christians. The remainder of the population is made up of Persians, Turks, Armenians, Arabs and Kurds. Sindbad the Sailor was born at Bag- dad, aedad, and all his marvelous adventures begin by his going down the Tigris to Bussorah (the modern Busra). • The city stands on both sides of the Tigris, the two parts being connected by the famous bridge of boats, 220 yards long. A brick wall, five miles in circumference and forty feet high, sur- rounds Bagdad. The city contains upward of 100 mosques, though barely twenty of them are in use. The houses generally are old, dirty and ugly outside, but the vaulted ceilings, rich moldings, inlaid mirrors and massive gildiugs bring back to the recollection of the traveler "the golden prime of the good Haroun- al-Raschid." The streets are narrow, crooked, un- paved and dirty, full of ruts and strewed with garbage, which, however, is for the most part removed by dogs, the public scavengers in the east. to be among In Dread of vroup Every mother dreads croup unless she knows about Dr. Chase's Syrup of Lin- seed and Turpentine.

"Many doctors are now discarding the stronger alcohol in ordering baths," says the Farm and Fireside, "and are prescribing the more agreeable bay rum, which Is made in Japan from the distillation 'of rum and the leaves of the bayberry tree. If you want a pleasant, exhilarating bath use this in dilution suiting to your condition. For bathing the sick it seems to have a longer and more stimulating and tonic effect than whisky or alcohol."

Few men would pause to read an article headed "The Ideal Husband." Man knows his fellow men too well. Of course it is true that nearly every married woman has at some time in her life claimed to have found the one ideal husband, but not for long. He is not a stable article; he is only a fleeting glimpse. Shortly after a young married wom- an declares hers to be the ideal hus- band he exhibits a tendency to crum- ble his crackers in his soup or to place a slice of bread in his empty dinner plate and submerge it in gravy. These things "are,not done." While sl` man is still engaged—held under option, as it were, but not defi- nitely contracted for—he is for a short while considered ideal. However, he just begins to enjoy his perfection when it is discovered by his general manager elect that he rests his knife and fork half on the tablecloth and half on his plate, while they should be draped artistically across his plate midway between meat and potatoes. To save time, probably Mme also cuts his meat into small pieces before start- ing to eat it. He has good reasons for doing as he does, but they do not excuse him. His sort of conduct and perfection simply do not walk hand in hand. No young couple should be engaged long enough for either one to discover the other's shortcomings. So long as a man and a girl are so mutually mes- merized that the eyes of one never leave the eyes of the other he is per- fect, but the moment he allows her glances to stray below his Adam's ap- ple, the moment he loses control, he loses also perfection. She realizes that his knowledge of esthetics was glean- ed from an abridged edition; that his tle is not in vogue, that his collar is too loose and too low and therefore too comfortable.
