Grange, Vancouver, 11,C., writes: "During a cold spell here about the middle of last October (1913), �.y I caught a cold which got worse despite all treatments I coupd obtain, unlit about-uvember 22nd, a' friend said, 'Why not try Dr. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup?' Really, I had no faith in it at the time as I had tried nearly every other remedy I had heard of, to no avail, .but I thought I would give this last remedy a trial. I purchased a 50 cent bottle, and in three days I was feeling t' a different man. My cold was so hard, and the coughing so prolonged, that vomiting occurred after a hard spell of coughing. ` I carried the bottle in my pocket, and every time I was seized with a coughing spell 1 would take a small dose. I can most heartily recommend Dr. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup to anyone with a severe cold, as its powers are most marvelous, and I never intend being without.it at all times." When you ask for "Dr. Wood's" see that you get what you ask for. It is' put up in a yellow wrapper; three 'pine trees the trade mark; the price, 25c and 50; manufactured only by The T.

Percy Noel, writing from Paris, says that although overland aviation was considered dangerous at the 'beginning of the war, there were many aviators whose long ex- perience and continued activity in- dicated that flying could be enjoyed without fatal accident. But we well knew that to fly safely requir- ed cautiousness before leaving the ground and while in the .air. The aviatur examined his machine first, then the weather, and he did nut go out unless both suited him. War aviatiun is different. The aeroplane may need a few parts, may be in danger of collapsing in the air, but that will not keep the airman from attempting important duty with it. As for the weather—pouff l . Now that there are guns of sev- enteen varieties fired from below and bumbs of adversary aeroplanes dropped from above and rapid fire guns that shoot in any direction, we 'begin to realize how safe avia- tion was ,before the war. Even ` without the factor.of danger; from the eneni3e'•s fire, there is a great in- crease in the risk. Certainly the ordinary hazards of aeroplane pil- otage have 'been doubled. The un - ',al risks begin at the military • 6C ' ool.s of flying. continue at the aeroplane stations and become worse as the machines deteriorate from exposure. ' In spite of the known dangers, +f the unromantic deaths of student pilots and veteran pilots—men kill- • ed accidentally many miles from the sound .of cannon—the number of applications for the air services of France and England, and un- doubtedly of Russia and Germany as well, exceeds the pilot making capacities of the training camps. Many a young man has brought 'to (bear all the influence that he could control to be designated "pilot pu- pil," but comparatively few of them convince the school Commanders of latent ability when -they receive their first trials. Nutri til y. An English colonel, at kit inspec- tion, said to Private Flanigan : "Hat Yes, shirts, socks, flan- nels all very good. Now, can you assure me that all the articles of your kit have buttons on them?' • "No, sir," said Private Flanigan, hesitating. . "How's that, sir?" "Ain't no buttons on the towels, sir.," War News A footed Her.. Many people who have been reading the terrible war news from day to day, , especially those who have relatives at the seat of war, have become so nervous that it is impossible for them to sleep. The nerves have become unstrung and the heart perhaps affected. Milburn's heart and Nerve Pills will build lige the unstrung nervous system and stir gthen the weak heart. Miss I-Tildia Dicaire, Martintown, Ont., writes: "In August, 1014, I was out of school for my health. I was visit. ing friends in London, and heard of the war. It made me so nervous that I could not sleep, but after using Mil - burn's Heart and Nerve Pills I improved greatly, and could take my school again. .1 have recommended thein 'to many of my friends."

The clasp granted to Lieut. Ar- thus Martin. Leake, R.A.M.C., to the Victoria Cross which he won in the South African war is the first ever awarded in the history of that supreme decoration. "It is ordained that anyone who, after having received the Cross, shall again perform an act of brav- ery, which, if he had not received such Cross, would have entitled him to it, such further act shall be re- corded by a Bar attached to the riband :by which the Cross is sus- pended, and for every additional act of bravery an additional Bar may be added." This is the passage in the Royal Warrant of February 5, 1856, es• tablishing the Victoria Cross, which provides for a. possibility which has now been realized. Lieut. Martin Leake, who won the Cross for gallantry at Vlakfon- tein in 1902, was then serving with Baden-Powell's Police, having gone out to South Africa with the Hert- fordshire Yeomanry. He is a medical man, trained at t?niversity College Hospital, and on his return to England he went into private practice at Ware, Hertfordshire. In September last he re-entered the army and was given a commission in the R.A.M.C. It has frequently' been stated that Clasps have been won by heroes in the past, but the "Gazette" con- tains no record of such an event. The late Sir Charles John Stanley Gough, one of two famous brothers who won the Cross in the Indian Mutiny, was credited with possess- ing three Bars. It is true that he was decorated for no fewer than four conspicuous and separate acts of bravery, one of which was saving the life of his brother, Lieut. Hugh Gough, who also won .the V.C., but he was not gazetted until October 21, 1859, when these yarious acts were enumerated. Major Berryman, a Crimean vet- eran, who was "mentioned" for his bravery on four occasions, was an- other V.C. wearer supposed to pos- sess a Bar, but he himself denied it. If London Starved. Facing the almost impossible con- tingency of London being 'block- aded, and upon starvation rations, one wonders whether the animals :n the Zoo, at Regent's Park, would be slaughtered, as was the ease with all the animals in the Parisian Zoo in 1870—sonde 45 years ago— during the siege of the Gay City, says London Answers. Bear steaks and elephant cutlets were regarded as the ,greatest of luxuries, after the ordinary courses of a menu of the farmyard description had long since become unpurchasable. The prices that poultry and other arti- cles fetched seem beyond belief. Turkeys cost 100 francs (4) each, and upwards. A goose would fetch 60 francs, while a sovereign was the price for a little fowl. Vegetables were equally expensive, and those who indulged in the luxury of car- rots, turnips, and potatoes .had to pay as much as fivepence each for the two first -named, while the com mon or garden "spud" would fetch as much as a couple of pounds sterl- ing per bushel. The feline quadru- ped was in great demand, and cats were disguised in many a pie as rabbits, while the flesh of dogs was worth half-a-crown a pound, and of horses three to four shillings. In some streets of Paris oil still is used as an illuminant, neither gas nor electricity .having been in- troduced. 13,v means of a secret process a French scientist converts flowers, fruit and even animal tissues into metal.

'the Polar regions in the North to the tropical countries in the S. itch England's ally, Russia. But the greater part of its 175,• 000,000 population, the bulk of the Russian i>eo•ple, are the 11N),000,000 Russian peasants, or, as they are generally called "the Muujiks." Although scattered in a country with climates uf the greatest var- iety, they are very similar in halaits and customs, and what can be said of the ?vfoujik in cold Siberia is South of the I:tussiain peasant. .4 Child of Nature. Civilization, as it is understood in this country, has not made its way vet to the Russian Moujik ; he is still very much a child of Nature. Love, hatred, joy, and sorrow he shows without disguise ; he is not violent in the expression of any emotion, yet he feels deeply. He is not emotional, but always inclined to melancholic contemplation; per- severing, even obstinate, yet eas- ily persuaded and easily led any- where ; cunning, and at the same time simple-minded, and with a child's faith. The'Slav character at its best can be observed in that big, bearded fellow who believes in 'God, the Tsar, and his country. What are his needs in life? A small two or three roomed house, a small field,'some cattle—and he is satisfied. If he is not hungry, if he has a shelter over his bead without the rain passing through it, he con- siders himself happy. Greediness, passion for money, is very rare among the Moujiks; all his ambi• tions and dreams are another acre of land, one more horse or ox. A large family is not considered a burden, as every member, whe- ther male or female, works and helps. Therefore, early marriages, such as are unknown in other coun- tries, are very frequent. Fathers of nineteen and mothers of even a younger age are nut rare. The pa- triarchal family life still exists; the father is head of the family, his de- cisions 'being indisputable. When the son married, if not liv- ing separately, he brings his wife to his parents, so that the hus- band's family is always the winner by getting a new working member. Marriages are still contracted in very many cases by the choice of the parents, and the parties whom it most concerns are seldom con- sulted. Yet such marriages are n:, less happy than those in which the choice is given to the young people themselves. With Few Pleasures. The amusements of the Moujik are very few. Dances in the long winter evenings, where many a. love affair begins to bud, by the music of accordeons, or "harmonicas," the Russian national instrument, girls' choirs, or bhe famous /'Kho- rovods" in summer, with a few quaint customs, such as masquer- ading at Christmas, fortune-telling on. the eve of New Year's day, that is all which relieves the monotony of the village -life. Owing to the vast area of Rus- sia, and the few railways, thous- ands upon thousands of villages are at a great distance from the bustle of city lifer The visit of. a nomadic merchant who travels about in his cart all the year round with a stook of wares to villages is this or that province, covering thousands of miles, is quite an event in the monotonous life of the village population. The newspaper is still a. luxury to the Russian Mou- jik, and all news of the outer world is brought to him by these mer- chants. The Moujik is patriotic, but, his patriotism does not resemble what it generally understood by this word. He is not Imperialistic; he does not think of the extension of his country. Firstly, because he knows she is enormous; seeo•ndly, he thinks that nothing exists out- side her is worth having. He is very peaceful; a. warlike spirit is a thing unknown to him; ;but if he is ordered to fight for his country, he will go doggedly forward. If push- ed 'basic, he will resume his nnaroh —never tiring, never despairing with obstinate constancy. He will die without hatred and without re- gret, as he knows it is for his "lit- tle mother," Russia. A. New Era. • • The great curse of the l,rtiu•jik, easily explained and, perhaps, for given, is the- "vodka." The =mant. of "vodka" consumed a year in Russia is appalling-. lalling-.

Among the many curious eases of wounds which have been investi- gated by the X-rays at St. Bartho- lomew's Hospital in London is one in which a German bullet was found imbedded in the muscular part of a soldier's heart. The radiographer who located the bullet said that it entered the man's left shoulder and burrowed downward. The amazing feature of the case was that after the soldier had been hit he walked for a mile and a half to an ambulance. He did not realize that be was wounded, he said, until he saw a few splashes of blood. The bullet was not removed, and the man lived' afterward. This is by no means an isolated Mase of a. anon 'living and even of following some occupation, with a foreign body in a vital part. Two interesting radiographs in the lab- oratory at St. Bartholomew's Hos- pital illustrate this. One is of a German bullet imbedded in the right lung, It measures about one and a quarter inches lung, and the delineation is perfect. The other shows*, number of pieces of slhrap- ne:l in the skull cavity at the base of the eye underneath the brain. The shrapnel entered one side of the cheek and penetrated through. to the other side. Brothers Fighting Brothers. A Paris newspaper says that in the present war a Swiss mother has lost four,of her eons who fought in different armies. By her first hus- band, an Austrian, she had two sons. After his death she married a, Frenchman, by whom she had two more sons. When the war broke out the :four sons took fare- well of their mother, t wo joining the Austrian army and two the French. Fate willed that the Aus- trian .cons should be •sent to rein- force the Germans at a point of the front where the French sons, artilleryman and cavalryman re- spectively. were fighting.

If you are one of these unfortun- ate persons to whom the winter and spring bring a series of eolds and chills you might ponder over the following three tips, and give them at least a trial. When you are go- ing to a place of worship, lecture, concert, or similar place, earry your overcoat on your arm as you go. The exercise of walking will keep you warm. Arrived, don your coat. The habit uf removing it and sitting down means that the body rapidly chills, with elle result that colds come. Draughts and germs have been blamed, but the forego ing is often the real cause. And, instead of wearing your neck Inuf• fler or scarf in the usual way, with the ends in front, reverse. Thera, i•s no V opening at the neck then for winds to •searcth.
