Established 1896. Muskoka Free Hospital (for free patients). For early or incipient cases. Established 1902. His late Majesty King Edward VII. and Queen Alexandra were graciously pleased to extend their patronage to the above institutions, His Royal Highness the Duke of Connaught, Governor-General of Canada, has been graciously pleased to become Hon. President National Sanitar- ium Association. Toronto Free Hospital for Con- sumptives (near Weston), For ad- vanced cases. Established 1904, King Edward Sanatorium (on the same grounds), so named by per- mission of late King Edward VII. For advanced cases. For patients who can pay in part. Established. 1907. 6,000 patients have ben cared for in these institutions. This implies that an army, of over 4,000 have been sent back to their families to help once more as bread -winners. 335 patients are now being eared in the four institutions, of these are in the Muskoka Hospital and the Toronto Free vital. 205 of this number do ay a single cent towards the cost of maintenance. The others (19) pay from $2.00 to $4.00 a week to cover part coat of maintenance. One million dollars has been 'spent for the maintenance of pati- ents since the institutions were or- genized. $317,000.00 in addition has been expended on capital account for building, equipment, etc. $179,000.00 paid out this year for the cost of maintenance. $15,000.00 recently expended in construction of new sewage sys- tems, made necessary by the in- creased number of patients. A Laundry had to be built and .equipped at a cost of over $4,000.00; ether laundries refusing the work because of fear of infection. *le -school has been organized in :Toronto Free Hospital—the first of the kind in a Sanatorium. More important still. How many lives have been saved through the educational work done to prevent. the spread of infection. FISHING IN'SEA OF GALILEE. Bible students may be interested to know that there is still good fish- ing inthe sea of Galilee.. Dr. Er- nest W. Gurney Masterman, who has practised medicine in Galilee,' made a special study of the fishes found there, and in arecent book says that he found forty-three var • ieties, twice as •meany, as can be found in the British Isles. The fish- ermen are taxed a fifth of the value of the fish caught; the revenue go- ing partly to the Sultan and partly to a. Pasha in Damascus. GAV OP ALL HOPES `EV 1 ER GETTING !tr. Jacob I•r.

X would go to bed feeling as well as could be, and after sleeping for five itcurs I would wake with a severe pain in soy luck, then moving into my side and breast. The pain was so terrible I •could not He in my bed, and usually had to sit until morning with a'pillow propped up behind -my back. With all my pain I would go to work, and after working up to about 10 o'clock the pain would leave me entirely. The same thing' would hap- pen the next night, and every night for two years. I tried four different doctors, but none of them' did me any good. I tried a great malty patent medicines, but ell: of no avail. I gave up all hopes of aver getting well.

Pour over cabbage while hot. Chill. Place in beets just before serving. Asparagus Salad.—For_ asparagus salad only the tips should be used. Cut the stalks about 4 inches in length, boil till tender'and set away to get very cold. Arrange in bunch- es of about six stalks each. Bind each bunch with a half -inch -wide strip of pimento. Put a generous spoonful of cream mayonnaise on a leaf of lettuce and place a bunch of asparagus on each leaf. Rhu- barb salad is seasonable, and not widely known. Peel as many stalks of rhubarb as are needed. Out in very thin slices, combine with fresh- ly grated or desicated cocoanut, dress with French dressing. Serve on lettuce. Bean salad should be made from the yellow wax beans. String the beans, boil in slightly salted water until very tender. When thoroughly chilled, arrange on :lettuce and pour over them a boiled dressing. Fruit Salad.—Peel three oranges and two large grapefruit, and, af- ter removing the seeds and tough white membrane, cut the pulp in small pieces. • Skin and remove the seeds from one pound of white grapes. Chop one cupful of walnut meats and one-half cupful of maras- chino cherries. Mix all together with 'a little cream mayonnaise. Now take a medium-sized grape- fruit, cut in the form of a basket, remove the pulp and fill with cream mayonnaise dressing, Place in the center of the salad dieh and tie a gauze ribbon on the handle. Sur- round the basket with the fruit sal- ad, using lettuce leaves for a bor- der. Effective salad garnishes may be made of cheese balls. Mash a Neuf- chatel or cream cheese, adding a little sweet cream or olive oil, a pinch of salt, a dash of cayenne and a very little white pepper; work until smooth, but not too soft. Take a small ball of this mixture, flatten and press between walnut meats, or these balls may be rolled in the• ,yolks of hard -bailed eggs which have been put through the ricer, or in chopped parsley, 'watercress, nuts. or grated cheese, HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

To clean a copper kettle rub its surface with lemon skin and salt, Wipe the surface quickly and rub with a dry chamois skin. A soft rag moistened with lemon juice and then dipped in silver whiting will be found excellent for cleaning piano keys, Fruit stains may be removed by holding the stained portion over a bowl and pouring boiling water through the material, A plain cloth dipped in hot water and then in a saucer' of bran will clean white paint and not injure it. The bran acts like soap on the paint. If rice is cooked in water it will absorb about three times its mea- sure. If it is cooked in milk at least half .as 'muoh mort liquid will be necessary: If seams are pressed over a broomstick or any rounded edge, with care in keeping them straight, there will be no shining streak to mark their length. Often a machine . needle which has a turned or blunted point may be made as good as ever by rubbing it back and forth a few times on a whetstone. In cleaning woollen clothes in winter time take them out of doors, throw dry snow over them and then brush it off. This not only removes dust, but lint. Always empty out any water left before filling the kettle. Very fre- quently the flat taste of teaa is caused by using water that has al- ready been boiled. A tablespoonful of olive oil -and another of molasses added to the griddle cake batter is worth while trying. This keeps the cakes from sticking and also aids in browning: Kerosene rubbed on with a soft cloth will clean zinc perfectly. Kero- sene or gasoline applied with a cloth will also remove all grease marks from porcelain basins and• bathtubs: Rinse well with very hot water. If you want to cut hard butter into squares, and find you cannot do it without crumbling, fold a piece of waxed paper in which thebutter was wapped around the blade of the knife. You can then make a perfectly smoth cut. For washing colored ribbons make a strong lather of fine white soap and cold water ; wash the ribbons in this lather, allowing it to be quite cold ; rinse yin clean water several times, always having the water a litle soapy, and when near- ly. dry iron between thin piecesof muslin. If two iron holders are fastened to a tape long enough to slip about the neck and hang to convenient length at either side, there will be no excuse for using the apron or dress or burning the fingers in open- ing the oven door or handling hot pots and pans. Cocoanut matting may be cleaned with a large coarse cloth dipped in salt and water and then rubbed dry. When gilt frames or moulding of rooms have specks or dirt from flies and other causes upon them, they niay be cleaned with white of egg applied with a camel's hair brush. CARRYING THE HAILS.. Primitive Methods Are Used in Some Countries. c Our own service of mails is well 'organized. There is little doubt in the mind of the average person that when he posts a letter it will reach' its destination. ion, But hl B t i not other ands he might well fear for its safety. In Russia, for instance, any letter or parcel that is regarded with suspicion is imme- diately opened and its contents noted. A clever machine gums it up again, so that the recipient does not know that it has been tampered with. In. Lapland the mails are carried in sledges, drawn by reindeers. In the wilds of the Caucasus the post- man holds a post of danger, He must be protected' against brigands and against the weather, for he of- ten has to :climb': mountains over 12,000 feet high. Asiatic Russia, which is apt to be marshy, has the buffalo post; and, of coarse, the progress made is very slow. Buffaloes are more powerful than oxen, and they are also used in Siberia for carrying the mail Other postmen in foreign hands are the swimming postman of India, and the ski-ing letter -carrier of the Andes. +-or. latter place theArgen- tineP the. aft place, g tine Government specially import Norwegians. RUBBER INDUSTRY HORRORS BRITISH COMPANY IS INVOLV• ED IN PERU. Terrible Atrocities Revealed .as Re- r• t Izrui• au�l of tz s e la by Comm issiouer. No scandal for many years hues attracted so much attention in philanthropic and diplomatie circles in England as the Putumayo atroci- ties, writes a London correspon- dent, They have been at last fully revealed to the public by the report of Sir Roger Casement, II,M, Con- sul -General at Rio de Janeiro since 1909, who was sent by the British Governxnent to the Amazon district of South Anierioa to investigate cer- tain terrible stories which had leaked out as to the way in which an English rubber company employ- ing British subjects, negrces from Barbadoes, had been carrying out. the work of oollecting rubber. Sir Roger Casement is a man of very great experience, having acted as Consul both in Portugal and Brazil at different periods of his life. It was he whospecially inves- tigated for the British Government the alleged rubber collecting atroci- ties in the Congo a few years ago. ISOLATED DISTRICT, The territory of Putumayo lies on the north bank of the Amazon River, well up in the higher reaches,. and therefore east of the Andes, on the other side of which liee the main territory of Peru, ,the domi- nant power, with its implied et Lima on the Pacific side. Although thus separated by only some 400 to 500 miles, as a bird flies, from the capi tal, travellers from Lima have to journey north via Panama and thence south-east to the mouth of the Amazon and then west up the river to Iquitos, the nearest town of importance and the head adminis- trative centre of the district.. The authority of Peru is at the best shadowy. Claims are certainly put forward in no doubtful fashion by Colombia, and in a lesser degree by Ecuador. Up till recently Bra- zil was also a claimant. WHEN HORRORS BEGAN. In the district of Putumayo dwelt a number of Indian tribes, docile, trustful, responsive to good treat- ment and uncorrupted until in 1896 a rubber monopoly secured a con- cession, when. slavery was inaugur- ated. It is stated that the crimes of the Congowere as child's play to the atrocities which followed. Then. the 'concession for collecting the rubber was sold to the Peru- vian Amazon Company, a British trading concern of admitted stand- ing and high morals, but, as it was afterwards found, of astounding ignorance as to what was certainly and would most unquestionably continue to be, the result of em- ploying semi -white savages and full- blooded negroes in the prosecution of trading methods in which they were paid on commission and by re- sults. TERRIBLE FLOGGINGS. Adults were flogged because of their own •shortcomings in rubber collection, and parents 'for those of their little children, who were forced to stand by while the mothers were practically beaten to death. Men and women for defaulting in quantity or attempting to escape were suspended by the arms twisted behind their backs and tied together at the wrists. and they were then in this agonizing position and with their feet well above the ground scourgedon their nether limbs and tower back. BURNED AT STAKE. But these were trifles. It was no uncommon practice to pour kero- sene oil on men and women .and then set fire to them, to burn men at the stake, to dash out the brains of children, to hack off both aims and both legs of Indians, leaving them to slow death on the . path- ways. One chief who refused to be- tray the refuge of his followers was so treated. It was a favorite prac- tice to cut off the ears of living per- sons; in ono case a man's ears were cut off and his wife was burned be- fore his eyes. So fiendish was the temper of the jailers that once when four Indians were hung up with their arms twisted behind their backs a boy went around and bit. pieces out of all of them and then amused himself by swinging them backward and forward. The slave gangs often were starved. They died in their long marches under burdens as heavy as themselves: The chain gang officials took life merely for the amusement of the thing, and one day one man alone killed 25 persons, shooting some, cutting off the heads of oth- ers and hanging up the rest until. they were choked with chains round their necks. WOMEN FILLED TOO. No regard ,whatever was paid to age or sex, Women were killed as frequently es men. A mother .suck- ling her baby would be naught on an expedition and beheaded with a knife. The child's brain's were usually knocked out agailist a tree, Men they were tied up to trees and and shot et. Sometimes they were put in rows and a bullet sent through several of diem together. To amuse les frienda a wan would. blindfold a girl and send her to Walk a.way from the house. He would then shoot her dead, Live fires were lighted under the old pee- ple, A man would be asked to blow down a rifle barrel for zimuseznent ;. innocently he would do it, and at once the trigger would be pulled axed his head would be blown off. a i' usually Families sta u t y perishedtoga- tiler. ogstiler• Qn Indian chief was buried alive in the presence of his wife and hhildren ; the wife was then be- headed and the children dism.enn- bered and thrown on to the fire. Two hundred lashes aday was quite a common penalty. HE'S "DICK" TO ALL. About a year ago a party of Brit- ish journalists traveling through British Columbia were entertained by Sir Richard McBride, as Premier of the Province. Tothose men with fixed traditions of a Prime Minis- ter's dignity, it was somewhat of a shock to find how very familiarly Sir Richard McBride., the Westerners treated their ruler,. addressing him on the street quite frequently without more formality than would be given a village alder- man. However, the climax to the Englishmen's amazement was reach- ed during an automobile drive. The Premier had a tall colored chauf-, feur whom he addressed as "Sam." Reselling a smooth section of road, the' Premier leaned over the front seat and suggested a little more sLor' bless you, Dick, she's on the last notch now," responded the' negro, with perfect equanimity. a THE JAPANESE WRESTLERS. Contests Twice a Year in Tokio— Beginning of the Match. It is no light matter to be a Jap- anese wrestler. Iyemasa Tokugawa, attache of the Imperial Japanese Embassy, gave an outline of what wrestling meant to the Japanese, and mentioned incidentally. that the art originated in Japan before the Christian era, says • the London Standard. Mr. Tokugawa said that there are no fewer than 48 formulae by which wrestlers try to bring opponents to earth—a sort of catch as catch can with 48 Queensberry rules added. Wrestlers are naked, except for a narrow girdle, and consequently it is not easy to get a "hold." The Japanese have at present 587 trained wrestlers in the service of the Wrestling Association, and in June and January of every year ,there are great displays at the hall in Tokio. Beginning at sunrise, the matches continue until the •evening, and it is not necessary for a fall to take place before a victory can be claimed. On the floor of the amphitheatre is a squareheap of earth three feet high and in that square is the wres- tling ring, twelve feet in circumfer- ence, surrounded by twelve straw bags. Let a wrestler's knee touch the ground or the tip of his little finger go outside that ring and he has lost the match,. There are rigidly observed ranks among the wrestlers. All of them go under nicknames, which are be- stowed on them by their patrons or chosen by themselves. The highest class le whatinterpreted maybe neer ted as 3 p the "rope" men. To be raised to this dazzling dignity is a rare event, For 200 years there were only 15 men who enjoyed the distinction, and the power to confer the title is held by an old Japanese family which is said to have been that which initiated the art. Altogether there are five grades of wrestlers, all gladiators, who are eager to try their ;skill with men trained like themselves. They begin the matches by first washing their mouths in a bucket- ful of water by the side of the, ring. No suggestion is made that they bite each other; it is simply a pecu- liar .rule. Then they sit on their haunches, hands on the ground and watch each other. If they feel con- fident they spring at each`other slid- deely and hold on to the girlde or body. But if one does not wish to start the match and sees his oppon- ent ready for the spring, he may call "Not yet," and they both go and wash • their mouths again, "There are, therefore, many not vets," remarked: Mr. Toku•t3 awa dryly.

Verse 24: Another parable—One of a group of eight parables men- tioned in the introductory notes to our last lesson, which ,compare. Verse 25. While men slept — At night. It should be noted that no particular men are designated, it beingthe stealthiness of the en- emy, rather than any negligence on the part of the men who slept, which this part of the parable em phaeizes,. 26. When the blade spranglup— When it grew tall . and brought forth fruit. Resemblance to the grain was so close that it was not detected until the time *hen the ears of grain began to form. 27. Servants—Literally, bond -ser- vants. 28. An enemy --Literally, a man that is an enemy, Wilt thou then that we go --eag- erness of men to judge their fellows is a common human trait which even Christians do not escape. 29, Haply—Perchance. Root up the wheat with them— The similarity between the wheat and the tares noted above made this a real danger, but added to this the roots of the plants would be intertwined in the soil, and thus it would be almost impossible to re- move the one without uprooting the other. 30. Gather up first the tares—This would be impossible in actua erac- tire, in harvest fields with which we are familiar. In ancient times, how- ever, when the grain was all cut with a small hand sickle, and har- vesting was not so complicated or extensive a process ' as now, and especially among people with whom time counted for little, this separ- ation of the tares from the wheat at harvest time was not an impos- sibility. 36. In verses 31-35, which inter verse,, are recorded two other par- ables which Jesus spoke in connec- tion with the one under censidera- tion. It was not until after be had. finished speaking that he left the multitudes, and went into the house, the house referred to being probably that of Peter, at Caper - n aum. 37. The Son of man—A title used by Jesus frequently4n referring to himself, 38. The field is the world—Prob- ably Jesus intended with the term world to designate actually the whole world, though some have thought that the interpretation of the parable requires a limitation of the word to that part of the world included in the kingdom which he was to establish. Such a limitation, however, seems wholly unwarrant- ed. In interpreting the parable we must remember that itis not intend- ed that the details of any of Christ's parables should be forced further than Jesus himself carried the in- terpretation. Each parable empha- sizes one main thought or teaching and any endeavor to interpret de- tails of the figurative language leads into difficulty. The sons of the kingdom—All be- lieving disciples. 39. The end of the world—Margin, the consummation of the age. 41. All things that cause stumb- ling, and them that do iniquity— Not persons only. but things also that are evil and a hindrance to the final consummation of God's plans shall be removed. 43. The righteous shine forth as the sun—Jesus doubtless had in mind the prophecy of Daniel : "And they that are wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righte- ousness, as the stars for ever and ever." IRELAND IS PROSPEROUS. Iotreasr• in Volume of at g and Railway fusine95. That IreIand's hopes of regenera- tion are well based is proved by the latest returns of the Irish Depart- ment of Agriculture. There has been a steady increase in banking and railway prosperity for twenty years. In 1892 there was $175,000,000 deposited in joint stook banks, white the latest annual re- turns show the denosits have amounted' to $285,000.000. In the Post -Office Savings Banks last, year there was $60.000,000 on depsit, or over $40.000,000 more than in 1892. Since December, un- official reports state that the depos- its have advanced still more rapid - ley, and the development of activity in agricultural districts since the passing of the land purchase acts has astdnished the opponents of that legislation beyond measure. Ireland is emphatically on the up- ward grade .tcwday.

THEIR TREASURIES EMPTY. No More Strikes in Great Britain This Year. Although the strike fever has not quite died away from the. dock dis-. triet, Ben Tillett, the leader of the London, England. riverside work- ers, has net been able to repeat the achievements attained last year at Liverpool with the aid of Tom Mann. The fiat has gone forth to the members of the trade unions that there must be no more strikes this year, and the rank and file of the in.embers are glad to obey such in- structions, as the treasuries of even the moat powerful organizations are seriously impoverished by the ex- pensive struggles of the last eigh teen months, Miners and railroad workers have alike suffered. The generals of the industrial army have also instructed their fol- lowers to centre their attention on securing bigger Parliamentary re- presentation, and to this end' the Boilermakers' Society have deter- mined to enforce compulsory contri- butions from their members for political purposes. As members of Parliament now receive $2,000 a, year, the view of the Government is that such contributions are no longer necessary. Significance is attached to the saner attitude of labor as reflected in •the new manifesto to trade unionists, as it amounts to an offi- cial repudiation of the methods of the syndicalist leaders who, in ef- feet, tell the workers they can get all they want by paralyzing the trade of the country. Tom Mann is again preaching this doctrine in the industrial centres of Great Bri- tain, and others are echoing his arguments. But the British work- ingman in the mass is turning to the calmer efforts of improving his lot by orderly political procedure. INCONSIDERATE. "If you don't stop nagging me, Emily, I shall shoot myself this very minute." "Yes, that's just like you, when you know bow nervous I am when I hear a shot." You can always depend y pe on some men doing nothing at all times. The good opinion you have of yourself will not pass you through the pearly gates. The popularity of a homely girl may depend on the sum her father can write a check for. SUFFERED WITH LAME BACK WAS NOT ABLE TO STRAIGHTEN UP Mr. C.
