Marie, Ont., writes: "My little girl, six years old, had a dreadful hard cough. At nightsshe would cough so hard she would get ulack in the face, and would cough for several hours before she could stop. We tried different kinds of medicines and had several doctors, but failed to do her any good. She could not sleep nor eat her cough was so bad, and she was simply wasting away. A friend advised me to try Dr. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup. 1 got a bottle and saw an improvement, and got another. Now I am only too glad to recommend it to 'a11 mothers." Too much stress cannot be laid on the fact that a cough or cold should be cured immediately. Dr. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup will cure the cough or cold and prove a pre ;ventative from all throat and lung troubles such as bronchitis, pneumonia and consumption. "Dr. Wood's" is put up in a -yellow wrapper; three pine trees the trade mark ; price 25c and 50e, per bottle. Manufactured only by The T. Mil- burn Co., Limited, Toronto, Ont. WHY MILK FERMENTS. Not Always the Lightning That Is the Cause of It. Milk, it sometimes happens, not al- ways, will turn sour during a thun- derstorm. It is not always the light- ning that causes it, for the heat before the storm is often great enough to make the milk ferment. But light- ning can, and sometimes does, make milk turn sour by its action on the air. Air, as everybody knows, is com- posed of two gases—oxygen and nitro- gen; but these gases are mixed to- gether, not combined. Lightning, however, makes the gases combine in the air through which tit passes, and this combination produces nitric acid, some of which mixes with the milk and turns it sour. Perhaps it might be well to explain the chemical differ- ence between mixing �nd combining. When different ingredidats are put to- gether without their u • dergoing any chemical change they re mixed, as, for example, grains of sand of vari- ous colors may be m' d in a bottle. usewife.

Lesson III. ---Peter's Sermon at Pente- cost, Acts 2. 14-47, Golden Text: Acts 2. 21. Verse 22. Peter has been expound- ing the significance of what these people have heard by appealing to Joel, who in his turn had developed older aspirations that "all Jehovah's people might be prophets," It is clear that the "tongues" form the smallest part of the Spirit's gift for. Peter: that they were speaking God's mes- sage is what matters. Ye men of Israel—The name of religious privi- j lege (compare John 1. 47). Approved unto you—The miracles were his credentials, since none could doo the signs unless God were with him (John 8. 2). Three features are de- scribed with emphasis: the power called forth, the astonishment pro- duced, the inner significance. 23. Delivered up—Compare John 19. 11. Men without the law (margin)— Compare John 18. 85, AU through the Passion story it is insisted that the Jews had the responsibility for the murder of their Messiah. Not that Pilate was guiltless; he knew by a Roman's instinct for law that his sentence was an outrage on justice. 24. Not possible—The essence of the great venture of Psa. 16 was in 'the poet's dimly seeing that God's be- loved cannot pass into nothingness, since God's love is almighty. This applies to all who can say, "My God," and supremely therefore to • the Anointed One. Pangs—From the Greek`Psa. 18. 4. Peter probably used the much more forcible Hebrew "snares." 29.. Peter shows that the Psalmist— whom he assumes to have been David, like all his contemporaries—was not delivered from the common lot of men. Now to the Jewish mind there was a complete solidarity between an- cestor and descendant; almost till the very end of the Old Testament per- iod, the only immortality a man ex- pected was iii his children and chil- dren's children. The deliverance from Sheol, therefore, which David expect- ed for himself, must have been re - 'served for "great David's greater Son." This argument is cogent for Jews of Peter's day; for us, of course, Peter's own testimony—that of one who comes after Jesus Christ counts for much more than David's, even if we were sure that David wrote Psa. 16. We can see, however, a permanent argument for immortal- ity , icfa ivi .in th. Home Hints. Sweet oil will remove finger prints from varnished furniture.

The first intimate comparison of Germany as she is to-day—subdued and longing for peace—with the Ger- many of a year ago—rampant and war-mad—is given by Mr. Horace Green, an American correspondent, who is now revisiting Germany after a year's absence. Mr. Green, in a message sent by mail from Berlin, says that horror of more fighting is Berlin's outstanding feature, "with the rank and file thor- oughly sick and tired of the war." He is greatly impressed by the re- markable change which has occurred among Germans since his previous visit early in the war. "The question of the duration of the war," he states, "is the one I have most frequently heard discussed dur- ing the past fortnight. It is on every- body's lips. A year ago the slogan was `Germany will win'; to -day the cry is everywhere, 'How long will this thing last?' " Mr. Green, describing his discus- sions with German passengers in the train by which he travelled from the Dutch frontier to Berlin, says: "They discussed various subjects, and occasionally, but rather quietly, the war. Last v ar. n de s'.,' a ORIGINAL THOMAS ATKINS. How the British Soldier Came By the Nickname. That the name Thomas Atkins, the popular word for the British private soldier, originated in the signature to a specimen official model for keeping soldiers' accounts is tolerably certain, says a contributor to the Cornhill Magazine. The difficulty is to identify the particular individual. By far the best case so far made out is that for a gunner in the Royal Artillery. In the old days when George III, was king, life in the ranks of the Bri- tish army was very hard, and the men saw little pay. William Cobbett served eight years in the ranks, and he himself speaks of the difficulty he experienced in saving even a half- penny that he proposed to spend on a red herring to add to his scanty breakfast. Alas! the halfpenny was stolen. Even as late as the nine- teenth century, the time when our hero flourished, soldiers' account were anything but well kept. Many of the men could not read and were de- pendent for their just dues on the honesty of their pay sergeant. Sud- denly there arose a born accountant in the person of a gunner in the Royal Regiment of Artillery who was named Thomas Atkins. He soon became an object of admiration to his comrades and an object of awe to the pay ser- geants. Even some of the officers at first greeted him with suspicion, Gunner Atkins was, however, a de- cent fellow. He had proved himself a man of physical courage in the field, and he soon earned the respect of his officers for his moral courage. He started a book in which he entered and balanced his accounts monthly, and so is believed to have originated DOAN'S KIDNEY FILLS Rolito o The Kidneys and Madder Like Ordinary Medicines Do The Bowels. When the kidneys get out of order the back is sure to become affected, and dull pains, sharp pains, quick twinges all point to the fact that the kidneys need attention.'
