The Never -Stop Bakery.
One - of the greatest -wonders of
Wembley this year is the never -stop
bakery, which will work unceasingly
day and night while the Exhibition is
open to: cater for the needs of visitors.
The bakery.lea`s been designed•�
to
bread-, rolls,andpastries supply past es of al•1
kinds to the cafes and .restaurants,
thus obviating the troubles and wor-
ries of transport of huge supplies to
the Exhibition.
Sixteen steam -pipe ovens have been
installed in the ,yakery, In a fire -box
behind each pair of ovens is a small
fire' of smokeless coke. Along the
roofs of the ovens is a series of tubes,
each hermetically sealed, and in these
tubes is water which, heated by the.
coke fires circulates and provides the . .
necess•ai y cooking heat:-
Rolls,
eat~Rolls, moulded by machinery, are
put into the ovens on great trays of
sheet iron. The baker can watQli. the
actual baking process by means of an
,electric light which lights- up the in-
side of the oven. One- hundred thous-
and rolls can be turned out every day.
. In the kitchens attached to the bak-
ery are to be found electric breat-but-
tering machines, each capable of cut-
ting and buttering 20,000 slices of
bread in a'.day;-- and electric potato

Using Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills.
Impure, weak blood is the causee
of
most of the troubles that afflict peo-
ple. This is the cause of the wretched
feeling of langour and faintness, pains
In the back and side, headaches and
breathlessness, that afflict women and.
make her daily life a toiture. - To get
new health and strength the blood
must, be enriched. What Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills do in cases of this kind is
told by Mrs. , Augusta Emery, Wood-
ford Station, Alta„ who says:—"Liv-
ing on the prairie, and knowing that
there are thousandsof women like
myself miles away from a doctor,. I
want to. tell them what Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills have done for me.. After
my first .baby' was born I seemed to
have little energy. I felt weary and
run-down and unable to do even the
ordinary househald duties. I felt I
needed • a touic and, as I had long seen
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills advertised- I
decided totry them. I got a supply
and carefully followed the directions
and before 'very long the result was
wonderful. Day by 'day I regained
my former strength and energy. The
pilus seemed to give me a keen appe-
•tite and I' gained in weight and soon
was able not; only to do my work
about the house bit to help with many
chores" on the farm. For this reason
I would advise women, particularly
those on the prairie or the farm, to
keep a supplyy of these pills always
on hand. One trial will convince you
of their worth. , T have recommended
them to many of my friends and never
have they failed to produce good. re-
sults." •

"Flying" at 23 Miles Per Hour.
A hold sportsman who lived in Eng-
land a hundred years ago when' the
railway was new accepted an, invita-
tion to go with a house party for a
run of five miles by *ail. In a letter
written in 1829 he gives this account
of his experience: "The quickest mo-
tion is to me frightful; it is really fly-
ing, andit is impossible to divest your-
self of the notion of instant death to
all upon the least accident's ,halSpen-
ing. It gave me a headache that has
not left me yet." The train in which
he rode "flew" at the,. terrific' speed of

If any Boy Scouts are going abroad
this summer in order to see the Wemb-
ley Exhibition or to visit other places,
they should make 'sure that they se-
cure from Headquarters a Scout Pass
port which will accredit them to all
foreign Boy Scout associations. The
forty Boy Scout associations which be-
long to the International Bureau re-
quires these credentials of any Scout
or Scout officer from a foreign country
visiting'them, alid failure to have one
may result in refusal to recognize

The application , should be made

Secretary of the local association to
Headquarters, which wilt issue the

In Dundee not long ago a memorial
was unveiled to brave Mary Slessor,
the "White Queen of Okoyong." Cour-
ageous as. she was, her life was no
more heroic than her mother's.
Married to a drunken husband, Mrs.
Sles•sor had to earn the living as well
as care for the children.- Drink was all
the father lived for. Sometimes 'when
his wifehad gone without supper that
he. might have food he would throw it
into the fire in his drunken rage.
In circumstances heavy enough to
break a woman's heart. Mrs. Slessor
cherished her ideals. It was she that
first told. little Mary stories of far Cala-
bar and of the cruelties of the natives.
It was she that thus fired thegirl's
imagination and urged her to her great
work for humanity,

Mrs. Jahn A. Patterson, Scotch. Vil-

ren in our home, and the only medi-
cine they get is Baby's Own Tablets,
and f have not known the Tablets to
fail when a medicine was needed. No
mother should be without the Tablets
in the house." Like Mrs. Patteraon
thousands of other mothers are quick
to praise• Baby's Own Tablets. for
bringing health and comfort to their
little ones. The Tablets are -a mild
but thorough laxative which regulate
the stomach and bowels, thus banish-

Swing Your Hamner.
"What, starting io build a
house,
e
,
and winter' only a •weal, off!" Thus
the passer-by hailed the young con-
tractor who was laying the sills for a
new building.:
The workman grinned. "I sold riiy
house, a little while ago; too good an
offer to refuse. Hustled 'right over
here, bought this lot, had the cellar
dug and walled -and now we're all set
to get this shack up, inclosed and
roofed before bad. weather hits us.
Get as far' as that, chimney up and
heater in -and we can finish it, no
matter what's doing outside. I'm
praying for good weather, but I'm
swinging my hammer as fast as I can
at the same time."
"Good luck! I won't stand around
and hinder you," said the other,
laughing.
Faith and Work are, good partners.
They don't wait for each other to do
the thing that needs doing; they
tackle it together. ' Faith believes that
God will help on any good job, whether
it be building a house or saving a teal.
It.. calls upon him confidently for co-
operation. And while Faith is doing
that, Work swings a lusty' hammer..
So then it doesn't matter whether
you say, "Pray, but swing your ham-
mer," with the Spanlsh, or "God helps
them that help themselves," with. Ben
F'ranklin, or "Faith without works is
dead," with the Bible. Get the' idea
and Ilse it. Look to God for help, hut
