INF TO'
Doctor Said He was h a Very

Mothers cannot watch their children
too closely for signs of cholera infanttnn,
as this disease carries off thousands of
infants during the hot summer months,
Mrs, Geo, W. Garland, Prosser Brook,
N.B., writes: "Last summer my boy,
Jos, then a year old, was taken sick with
cholera infantum. He was so. bad the
waste matter from the bowels looked

sent word to the doctor who was at a

Said' my boy was in a very dangerous
Condition:. He sent the some tablets
which made the child vomit, and when
lie learned that they caused vomiting
he sent zne more tablets to stop it, In

ARGUMENTS OF
GERMAN CHIEFS
THE NEW YORK LIFE CANNOT
SEE THEM IN THE SAME
LIGHT.
The German doctrine of military
necessity is as though a man should
say: "Here I tun in a bad hole. To get
me out it is necessary for me to shoot
my neighbor, William Smith, brain
his wife, throw his baby down the
well, kidnap his daughters, carry off
his household effects and burn his
buildings. It is not that William is
my enemy or has done me any harm,
but I have got to make myself re-
spected in the community, so that my
necessary plans can go through. Wil-
Iiam lives next to the bank. If he
would let me through his property so I
could get into the bank's basement
and supply my needs, it would be all
right. But he won't, I know he won't.
He is a pig-headed devil and must
take the consequences of his infernal
absiinacy. Francis, the bank watch-
man, will make a lot of trouble for me
if I don't get the start of him. Also,
John will butt in and want to do me
an injury, and Sam, across the lake,
will be sailing over to find out what's
what. I must fix it to kill Francis,
and stand off John, and sink his sail-
boat, and Sam's, too, somehow. And
no doubt all the neighbors will raise
a howl, but what is a man to do when
he is in a hole? He must just take
the necessary measures to get out
and trust in a God who will recognize
his needs and endorse his expedi-
ents."
That is a comprehensive doctrine,
but sure to be troublesome. Nobody
will accept it except Friedrich, whose
own it is. To every one else it will
seem that Friedrich is taking unwar-
rantable pains to save himself from
embarrassment, and that by far the
simpler way to relieve the situation is
to get together a vigilance committee
and provide a rope and catch Fried-
rich and hang him to the nearest
tree.
The highest altitude ever reached
by an airship is 10,600 feet.
"Khaki" is a Hindustani word, de-
rived from the Persian word "khalc,"
meaning earth, or dust.
England, France, and Russia pos-
sess about six times as many sub-
marines as Germany.

water while it is fresh.
Cotton crepe table napkins are a
great help for a busy housewife, as
they need no ironing.
To prevent the top of a cake bei
coming too brown or burnt, place
a greased paper over the top.
If you would have whites of eggs
beaten very stiff see that they are
perfectly eold and not too fresh.
When rinsing children's clothes,
add a little alum to the water, as this
renders them less liable to catch fire.
Try dipping your pork chops and
pork tenderloins in flour before fry-
ing them, and see how delicious they
are.
Habitual numbness of the hands
may be removed by rubbing them for
a time in cold water, following with
dry friction.
Good flour adhers to th hand, and
when pressed tightly, remains in

FRUIT BRANCH CIRCULAR.
Some Fruit Pests That Can Be Con-
trolled Now.
Cherry Fruit Fly. -If you are ' a
cherry grower and have been troub-
led in previous seasons with white
maggots in the cherries, spray just
before the blush begins to appear on
the Montmorencies, using the follow-
ing mixture: -2 to 3 lbs. arsenate of
lead (paste) to 40 gallons water,
sweetened by the addition of one
gallon of cheap molasses. Do not
spray the early varieties at this time.
In applying the spray the trees should
be given just a moderately thorough
application, so that nearly every leaf
will be lightly covered. Write for
either Bulletin 227 or 230 for further
information.
Pear Slug. -Troublesome on both
pears and cherries. The small, black-
ish, slug -like larvte feed on the up-
per surface of the leaves, causing the
foliage to present a brownish appear-
ance. They can be easily controlled
by spraying with 2 or 3 lbs. of ar-
senate of lead to 40 gallons of water,
whenever the slugs are numerous
enough to warrant it, unless the fruit
is beginning to ripen, applying the
spray to the upper surface of the
leaves. If you have only a few trees
dust them with hellebore or air -slak-
ed lime.
Brown Rot of Peaches, Plums and
Cherries. -This disease annually
causes great loss to Ontario fruit
growers. For peaches spray with
self -boiled lime sulphur about one
month after the fruit has set. (Write
for Spray Calendar or Bulletin 195.)
If the trees have been well pruned
earlier in the year, so as to admit
plenty of sunshine, and a free circu-
lation of air, the disease is much
easier controlled on both plums and
cherries as well as peaches, as it
thrives most in a close humid atmos-
phere. If rot starts to develop as the
fruit of either plums or cherries is
ripening, spray with ammoniacal cop-
per carbonate (copper carbonate, 5
oz.; ammonia, 3 pints; water, 45 gal-
lons. Write for Bulletin 195 for full
instructions in making). Go through
the orchard after the fruit is all
harvested, pick or knock all diseased
fruit from the trees and bury or
plough under, These "mummy" fruits
iftallowed to hang on the trees, serve
to carry the disease over till the fol-
lowing season.
Pear Blight. -This disease cannot
be controlled by spraying, and the
only effective remedy is to keep the
diseased wood cut out. Throughout
the growing season watch for and re-
move promptly all blighted twigs or
branches as they appear, cutting well
below the diseased portion. Disinfect
pruning tools and cuts at once with
corrosive sublimate (1 to 1,000).

A Cheery Heroine.
Sister Julia (Soeur Julie) has been
decorated with the insignia of the Le-
gion of Honor by President Poincare.
While the German forces bombarded
Gerbervilier she, with four other Sis-
ters, remained in one of the very few
houses left standing amid shell lire
and conflagration, nursing the wound-
ed French and German soldiers.
• A correspondent found Sister Julia
in the midst of caring for the ills of
some returning refugees. Her usual
simplicity was quite unchanged by the
fame that has come to her. When he
observed that she was not wearing her`
decoration, she replied, "No; this is
my working dress. I have too much
work to do to put on any uniform, and
so I keep my decoration in a box in my
bureau. When Monsieur Poincare
brought it to me, I could not believe
that sueh a little man was president of
France until they told me he really
was,"
She laughed cheerily at her mistake
for Sister Julia, who has won the
heart of France; is not a solemn per-
son,
p er-
son. Through all her ordeals she has
kept cheerful.
If anyone suggests that theywill
make a great ado about her when she
goes to Paris, She shakes her head.
Her place, she says, is not to make
tours in uniform, but here, in her
working dress, in her beloved. Gerbe-
viller,-which has to be all rebuilt,
looking after the women and children
as they return,

you, "I only did the Lord's work when
11, came to me to do. Why should the
president make an ado over that?"
i
The Loss of the Majestic.
The picture was taken at the Dardanelles three minutes after the bat-
tleship was struck by a torpedo. A French writer describes the scene
"She keeled over in an alarming fashion till she had a list of about 45
degrees to port. Everything on deck fell or slid with a tremendous din,
and whatever was not attached was thrown into the sea. But there was
not a single instant of panic. Four minutes after the explosion the Majes-
tic turned completely over and went down. It was a terrible moment, but
it was also sublime, when six hundred men, facing death, mute and
strong, were thrown into the sea, covered and caught in the torpedo nets
which ensnared them like an immense cast -net among the gigantic eddies
and the profound sobs of their dear annihilated ship. I shall never forget
that infernal instant. And yet this vision only lasted the space of a
flash of lightning, as we, too, looked death in the face, and in our ship's
boats we tools part in the finest rescue that the palette of an artist ever
represented."

American " Tells Countrymen That
, Neutrals Should Take Off Their
Hats To It.
The following letter in reply to the
question "What is the British Navy
doing?" appeared in the New York
Sun:
To the Editor:
Sir, -The man who reads only the
headings in the papers, avoiding all
news riot pleasing or in accord with
his own views, is the type of those
who analyze nothing, condemn every-
thing, and want to know what the
British Navy has done. Probably be-
ing familiar with the non -sinkable
boats in the park lakes, he can't form
any idea of the North Sea and the
task confronting the royal navy.
If this man could be aboard a pat-
rolling destroyer when zero weather'
prevails and ice covers the vessel
like the crust on a pie, with a North
Sea gale blowing and only the fun-
nels clear of breaking water and with
vibration. enough to loosen one's
teeth, perhaps he would then know.
I should like to see his face when
the shout of "Submarine 1" is heard
and the boat begins to start and
plunge, twist and turn to avoid the
little white streak that passes just
astern or slides beneath its bow. I
should like to see him in the engine
room or stoke hole of a cruiser just
at the exact depth where the torpedo
with a surveyor's accuracy breaks
through and sends all within to a
dozen kinds of deaths. I should like
to see him at the Dardanelles, where
obstacles such as Jules Verne's imag-
ination could not have conceived are
confronted.
Alive With Mines.
Can he imagine a body of water no
broader in places than the Hudson
River, with a current three times as
fast, alive with mines both floating
and stationary, a shore lined with
modern large calibre guns, torpedo
tubes and moveable artillery, with a
dozen submarines to aid them ?
Probably he would enjoy the gentle
game of mine sweeping under con-
stant fire, or perhaps a cash of five
or ten miles up the strait to recon-
noitre over mine fields and for the
benefit of the shore batteries, or per-
haps a trip under the .mine fields to
the Sea of Marmor% on a submarine.
I should have liked to see him
aboard the Blueeher: when at the un -

ITALY'S SOLDIERS.
Alpine Men Specially Trained for
Mountain Work.
Italy has some of the most efficient
and most picturesque soldiers in the
world. They are divided into four
classes; the Bersaglieri, the Alpini,
the Carabinieri, and the cavalry. Re-
cently the men of the third category
were called to the colors. This
means that the Alpine troops of the
first category, made made up of first
choice men for the regular army, and
the second category, men assigned
to the regular army, but with "un-
limited leave," have been exhausted,
and now those men are to be drilled
who, exempt for various reasons from
active service, are to be assigned to
the national militia for home defence.
The Bersaglieri are light infantry
of great mobility. They are always
seen on the run, and their pictures-
que costume, with low -crowned plum-
ed hat, is a feature of almost every
Italian landscape.
The Alpini are specially trained to
manoeuvre among the northern
mountains, and their target practice
consists in sharpshooting across the
vast open spades, where the atmos-
pheric
pheric conditions would confuse the
the soldiers of the lowlands. As to
the cavalry, experts have said that
that of Italy is the finest in, the world,
Besides these anitarue ctoips, there
are the famens Carabinieri or native -
ad police, wio are recruited from

army, and thenusually, return to it
as non-commissioned officers after
seven years' service, This corps is
considered the finest school of non-
commissioned officers in the world.

,THE SUNDAY COO
INTERNATIONAL LESSON,
JULY 18,
Lesson III. --Solomon Chooses Wis-
dom. 1 Kings 3. 4;15. Golden
Text: Prov, 9. 10,
I; Solomon's Dream (Verses 5-14.)
Verse 5. In Gibeota-A city of the
Hivites The "tabernacle of the con-
gregation" and the "brazen altar of
burnt offerings" made by Moses were
transferred to Gibeon from Nob (T
Sans. 21. 6; 1 Chron. 10, 39, 40; 2
Chron. 1. 3). It was "the great high
place," therefore, and Solomon offered
"a thousand burnt offerings upon
that altar," The city originally be-
longed to the tribe of Benjamin (Josh,
18, 21-25; see also Josh. 9).
In a dream --The offerings of Solo-
mon were pleasing to God, as the
dream shows, (For paralel account
of the dream, see 2 Chron, 1. 7-13).
God is frequently represented as hav-
ingmade known his will in a dream
(Gen. 15. 1; 28. 12; 31, 11; 37. 5; 41.
25; 1 Sam. 28. 6. 15),
6. Great lovinglcindness, that thou
hast given him a son to sit on his
throne -David regarded this as the
crowning mercy of Jehovah (see 1
Kings 1. 48).
7. A little child -Not in yeal•s, but
in experience as a ruler. Uriah was
killed about twenty years before Da-
vid's death. This would make Solo-
mon at least eighteen years old at
the time of his coronation. Solomon
might well have felt as a little child
as he faced his duties, He was of a
peaceful disposition (1 Chron. 22. 9).
The ordinary difficulties of his king-
ship were augmented by his -warring
and envious brothers and their fol-
lowers.
To go out or come in -That is, how
to live, what to do in the ordinary
happenings as well as the great
emergencies of life. This phrase was
proverbial among the Israelites (see
Num. 27. 17; Dent. 28. 6; 31. 2; Josh.
14. 11.
8. That cannot be numbered nor
counted for multitude -A hyperboli-
cal expression common in all lan-
guages --"As the sands of the sea,"
or "the stars of heaven." Perhaps
Soloman was thinking of Jehovah's
promise to Abram (Gen. 13. 16).
9. An understanding heart -That is
"wisdom and knowledge" (2 Chron. 1.
10). The Hebrew reads literally, "a
hearing heart"; patience "to hear" is
a prerequisite to an "understanding"
heart.
To judge -This was one of the
chief functions of the Oriental rulers.
I-lerodotus (1. 98) tells us that Deio-
ces was made king because of the
justice of his decisions, and Xenophon
shows that Cyrus was instructed by
his tutors how to render judgments.
In some places in the Dominion to-
day the Mayor (or ruler of the town)
is also a magistrate who must preside
as judge over the court. In the Jew-
ish mind, the prince and judge were
closely associated (see Exod. 2. 14;
18. 16, 22; 1 Sam. 8. 20; 2 Sam, 15.
2-6, etc.).
Great people -In verse 8 the term
"great people" means "great" or large
in numbers; here, "great" means lit-
erally "heavy," upon the king. The
burden of ruling the people would be
great, or "heavy," upon the king.
10. The speech pleased the Lord -
Although a dream, . it was the per-
sonal desire of Solomon.
11. Thine enemies - Hadad the
Edomite (1 Kings 11. 14-22) and Re-
zon the son of Eliada (1 Kings 11. 23-
25). These were adversaries of Solo-
mon "all his days."
12. A wise and an understanding
heart -A wisdom both moral and in-
tellectual (1 Kings 4. 29-34). It was
moral wisdom alone for which he
asked.
Like thee - Only one was to be
"greater than Solomon" (Matt. 12.
42).
18. That which thou hast not asked
-God gave Solomon all he asked for,
and then, true to his nature, added
something besides. This is the law
of divine government (see Matt. 6.
83).
14. If thou wilt walk in my ways,
to keep my statutes and my com-
mandments -All that Solomon was to
receive was conditioned on an upright
life.
As thy father did walk -In spite of
David's sinfulness, his heart was
right toward God and his repentance
genuine.
II. Solomon Goes to Jerusalem
(Verse 15).
15. Behold, it was a dream -As in
the case of Pharaoh (Gen. 41, 7).
"The dream was one of the recognized
modes whereby men expected to re-
ceive knowledge of the divine will."
Caine to Jerusalem, and stood be-
fore the ark of the covenant of Jeho-
vah -Solomon returned to Jerusalem
after his vision. He would act upon
the dream by showing gratitude to
