He realizes that when the kidneys fail to filter the poisons from the blood that there will be a hardening of the arteries. and when the pres- sure of blood conies on. they will snap like so much deteriorated rubber- tubing—the result is a clot of blood on the bre in, hemorrhage in the heart, or wherever the weak point may be. But why allow this condition to be reached when you can so readily regu- late the action of the liver and kidneys by using Dr. Chase's Kidney -Liver Pills. Troubles of this nature have their beginning when, from over -eating or lack of exercise, the liver goes wrong, and throws an undue burden on the kidneys. Headaches, biliousness, constipation and indigestion give due warning, and by the timely use of Dr. Chase's Kidney -Liver - Pills there need be no further trouble. The liver is awakened to action, the bowels regulated, and the kidneys strengthened in their all-important work by purifying the blood and thereby pre- venting pain and serious diseare. This is the greatest of family medicines, be- cause of the host of ills that are relieved and prevented by keeping the liver, kid- neys and bowels healthy and active. One pill a dose, 25 cents a box.

He will not grow wings, or overcome the law of gravitation, or subsist without food. But he is always prefiguring a future in which bis mind will operate different- ly. The time will certainly come when he realizes that there is no future, but only an indefinite extension of to -day. The important question is whether that time will come early enough in life to do him any particular good. A lazy man cannot possible make himself industrious in the future; O'r a tippling man, sober; or eh extravagant man, ecomonical. If it is done at all he must do it at an iihmediate present moment—at some "right now!" No man ever saved a penny in the future, or ever will. He has got to save the penny in his hand at the moment, or he ROLL OF HONOR Several thousand officers and employees of the Canadian Pacific ktaiiway Company enlisted for active military duty with the Canadian Rxpeditionary Forces, and the majority of them are now in Europe, $bravely battling for Canada and the Empire. .As particulars of Army Reservists are not available, these lists of those who have given up their lives for their country or been wounded in action are necessarily in- complete, and do not therefore indicate fully the extent to which the Company's officers and employees have participated in the great struggle.

That is clear enough to anybody who will think about it. To save the penny in hand he must resist the temptation to spend it. Imagining himself next year as resisting the temptation to spend a handful of pennies will do him the same [good that the drunkard gets out of imagining himself reformed next year. Every year that he does not resist weakens his ability to resist. This spending business is as much a matter of habit as tippling. It is with- in the knowledge of everybody who has the ordinary circle of personal acquaint- ances than, after a certain time, the man who lives up to the limit of his income—which about nine times out of ten, means a little beyond—accepts that as a normal condition and just automatically 'pends whatever he gets. At twenty a man lives largely in an imaginary future. At thirty he seems still to have fairly incalcuble powers and opportunities to draw upon. At forty he begins to realize what he fully knows, probably, at forty-five—namely, that be has already spent his future, in the sense that he has largely shaped and fixed it; so that it will contain nothing essentially different from what he himself has already put into it. If he can realize by thirty that he is spending his future every day it will be a good thing for him.—Saturday Evening Post. Whooping Cough Mr. Arthur Hainge, Ashton Farm, Perley, Sask., writes:—Two years ago whooping cough was very, bad in this part of the country, our eight months old boy caught it and had a very severe attack. A neighbour advised the use of Dr. Chase's Syrup of Linseed and Turpentine and we gave it and nothing else with splendid results. When the older brother took the whooping cough we used this medicine promptly and prevented serious trouble as the cough passed off in twq or three days."

"Will you please," asks a secret suf. fever, "write something about wives who make unexpected calls et their husbands' otlives? I um not gniity of anything, but 1 think that even the most innocent of men suffers acutely when his wife visits )giro at his otUee. There is no way for me to make my wife uuderstend this unless l appear boorish and brutal. Can't you say something about it? Malty wives read your column." Yes, friend, says the Cleveland Plain Dealer. We will put it in the form of geueral propositions, hoping thereby to step on no individual toes. We hold these facts to be proved: That no husband ever wants his wife to call on bim at his office during business hours, except upon his in- vitation. That no wife can know how she up- sets his routine, disorders the mental processes that go on during those hours and subjects herself to the gos. sip of his office mates. That there is no easy way to make a wife see this. We proceed from these truisms to a few observations. A lovely creature breezes into her husband's office Just because she hap- pens to be passing. She says: "Now, don't let me disturb you a min- ute—I know you are busy. Dearie, what good does that desk light do you at that I angle? Don't you know you will ruin your eyes? What a mess your desk is in! Look at Mr. Officemate's—how neat it is! Well, just let me stick this little i package in your lower drawer and you bring it home with you when you come. "Well. I must run along, for you're busy. Come out to the elevator with me, dear: I want to speak to you. Who is that disreputable looking man who is waiting in the outer office to see you? Why, it's a perfect disgrace to have such callers! "You have an appointment with him? How can you make an appointihent with such a creature? Well, goodby; dear. Get your shoes shined before you come home --you look awfully sloppy." And if husband protests against that call her eyes fill with innocent tears and she says: "Why, I 'wasn't there five minutes, and you weren't working at anything when I came in! And men call on you and stay half an hour! Of course I'll never come again. Are you ashamed of your wife?" The Bethlehem Music Festival. The Bach festival at Bethlehem is one of the most interesting events li musical production in this country" "Musically Bethlehem, Pa., is the most remarkable town or settlement in the United States." In 1780 Bethlehem had an orchestra, probably the first in the United States. In 1901 the Bethlehem music festival was marked by the firstl performance in America of B;ech's complete Christmas oratorio. Bethle- hem has been called "the American Oberammergau" and "the American Baireuth." The music festival is held each year. Trebizond and Polo. Polo probably came to us indirectly from Trebizond; where the Kabak- meidan, or Pumpkin square, was the site of a medieval polo ground. The game found great favor with the no- bles of Trebizond and was played on horseback, much in the same way as modern polo. It produced intense ex- citement among the spectators, rival- ing that of the hippodrome, possibly because it was dangerous as well as fashionable. Polo caused the death of one emperor of Trebizond—John I., who was killed by a fall from his horse.—Westminster Gazette. Died Same Date, Not Same Day. While it is true that Cervantes and Shakespeare died on the same date, they did not die on the same day. Shakespeare died Tuesday, April 23, 1616; Cervantes died Saturday, April 23, 1616. The explanation lies in the difference b itween the calendars in use at that time' in England and Spain. As a matter of fact, Shakespeare outlived Cervantes by about ten days.—London Observer. e The Word Vaudeville. The word "vaudeville" sprang from Vault de Vire, the name of a hamlet in the picturesque town of Vire, in Swig zerland, In the fifteenth century this town was the home of Oliver Basselin, the author of witty drinking songs. One of the best known of these songs was a merry dissertation on the au- thor's red nose. Insatiable. Clarence had wearied his mother with a lot of questions. Finally, she exclaimed: "Clarence Briggs, if you ask one more question you march right off to bed." Clarence pondered. Then he said: "When pa asks where I Is will him be sent to bed, too?"—Exchange.

Page 6 HHRiSTMAS MESSAGE The Hospital for Sick Children COLLEGE ST., TORONTO, Dear Mr. Editor:— Thanks for the privilege of appeal- ing through your columns ore behalf of the Hospital for Sick Chilton, the great Provincial Charity, Our need of money is measu ed by the children's need of help, aid you can Judge how great that neeedd must be wen last year 3,045 sick little ones were treated as in -patients, and as will .be seen from the 1916 figures, 592 patients were admitted from 242 places outside Toronto. Last year 271 in -patients were treat- ed for deformities, such as club feet, bow-legs, knock-knees, Pott's disease of the spine, lateral curvature of the spine, dislocations, infantile paralysis, tubercular disease of knee, hip, ankle. Is the Hospital for Sick Children to take dollars out of your pocket, or is death to take babies out of their cradles? That is the question. One gift more in the Hospital's trea- sury means one coffin less in the LITTLE WHITE HEARSE. The Hospital must be digging up help for little children from the -soil of human kindness, or sextons will be digging graves for little children in the soil of many a cemetery. The Hospital for Sick Children can only volunteer its mercy in $o far as you friends of little childrenevolunteer your money for service in the Hos- pital's never-ending battle for the lives of the little ones. Let your money fight in the trenches of some mother's trouble and rescue some little child from the dugout of pain, disease and death. Can the Hospital leave children to die because the fathers of those chil- dren have left home to fight for lib- erty on the British battle line, and can the Hospital help the children of Can- ada's soldiers with its care unless you help the Hospital with your cash? You have money enough to help every other war fund without keeping back a dollar from the Hospital's war fund—the fund that helps the Hospital save the liyes of little children, includ- ing the soldiers' little children. Do not let the little children pay, in the loss of the Hospital's care, the con- tribution that should be given and must be given to the' war funds. Your money can send a message of cheer to some father in the trenches— yes, send that message from the cot where the Hospital nurses some little child back to life, the child of the father who is fighting your battle in the trenches. Every dollar kept from the Hoa- pital's power to serve the little chil- dren is a weight added to the burdens and a grief added to the sorrows of this war. You can bear to have your pocket emptied of a little money easier than sere mother can bear to have her home emptied of a littIe child. Will you send a dollar, or more if you can, to Douglas Davidson, Secre- tary -Treasurer, or J. ROSS ROBERTSON, Chairman of the Board of Trustees, TREATMENT OF SPRAIN The first step in the treatment of a sprained ankle should be a carefully taken X-ray photograph according to Dr. S. Benard Rosenzweig, in The New York Medical Journal for the reason that simple sprains without fractures of the bones are rare. And the treat- ment of a break is different from, that of a sprain. The simple sprain is treated with movement and massage. The ankle is soaked for fifteen or twenty minutes in water as hot as can be borne. This is followed by massage and passive move- ments then alternate hot and colddouch- es and a loose dressing of lead and opium wash is applied, This is carried out twice a day, and after three days the patient is made move his ankle. This is now strapped for support, and the patient is advised to walk about, wear- ing a high -laced shoe and carrying..° stick. . If a bone be broken, the ankle is im- mobilized with a heavy adhesive dress- ing or a light plaster cast. At the end of a week massage baking and move- ment are given, and not until after this is the patient allowed to try to walk. res not suffer another day with Itohing, Bleed- ing, or cProtrud. ing Piles.

I HAD INDIGESTION is Milk is One of the best of free14, , see sally for the youn„' and for th•' siek: but at the same time it may he One of a worst of poisons. It centatns all the five essentials of food: protein, fat, carbohydrates, salt$ and vitamines;it is usually easily- digested, and its taste pleases most palates. But it may c m- tain the germ, of some of the most deadly of diseases although it still pre- serves its innocent appearance andsweet taste. It affords an excellent medium for the growth of bacteria, and when they have once gained access to it, they go on multiplying until the fluid liter; ally contairs millions of them. These dangerous germs may be in the milk from the hegining, for they may come from the cow herself; they may enter it during the process of milking, if they Were on the hands of the milkers or are thrown into the field by a care- less cough or sneeze;they may be in the can, if it has been washed with impure water; they may get4nto the milk when it is poured from one container into an- other; or they may find .;.heir way in when it stands in open vessels in the home. The only protection, therefore, is ex- treme care in handling the milk at eery step—in the dairy, during transtt, and in the home. The cow must be healthy and she must be kept in clean surroundings. The dairyman and all his family and, employees must be cleanly and free from all infectious diseases. The cans and other containers must be washed with sal soda and then with boiling water or steam. They must he cold when the milk is poured into them end kept cold—below fifty degrees, cer- tainly, and the nearer forty degrees the better. The bottle that contains the milk must be placed in the refrigerator as soon as it is delivered, and kept there BURDOCK BLOOD BITTERS CURED.% That grand old remedy, Burdock,: Blood Bitters, has been on the market) for over forty years and we claim, with out any fear of contradiction, that.there!' is not another medicine on the market to -day that can compare with it for the cure of all disturbances of the stomach.' Mrs. S. Turpin, Colborne, Ont., writes:: "I am writing to say that I have used' your Burdock Blood Bitters. .For a longi period 1 suffered with indigestion, and nothing I took ever gave me any relief, only for a short time. I bought several' bottles of B, B. B. from our drugs Mr. Griffis, and car: honestly say I eat or drink anything I want without; experiencing any bad after-effects, L may say that it is the only medicine I ever got any relief from." Burdock Blood Bitters is nianufactured only by TH>; T. Mii,nuarr Co., Limited, Toronto, Ont. until the milk is wanted. Finally the neck and cap of the bottle must •be - washed before it is opened. A circular that the U. S. Dept. of Agriculture has issued mentions the - "three c's of safety" in the care of milk: "Keep milk clean, cold. covered " If the dairyman and the dealer have done their part, you need only observe that precept in order to have wholesome milk. It is a safe rule to pasteurize all milk that is to be used by adults and older children, but for infants raw milk is preferable if you can be sure of its purity; for the ex- clusive use of pasteurized milk some- times seems to cause scurvy in small children. l• Gcet "More Money" for your Skunk Muskrat, Raccoon, Foxes,White Weasel, Fisher and other Fur bearers collected in your section SHIP YOUR FURS DIRECT to "SHUBERT" the largest house In the World dealing exclusively In NORTH AMERICAN RAW FURS a reliable—responsible—safe Fur House with an unblemished rep- utation existing for "more than a third of a century," a long suc- cessful record of sending Fur Shippers prom pt.SATIS FACTORY AND PROFITABLE returns.
