Vast Extensions Being Made to Keep Port in the Lead. Despite the war vast improvements and exbensions are being carried out et the London docks in furtherance of ;he scheme to keep London the lead- ing port of the world. A new deep water dock has just been completed near the Royal Albert Dock, and the East India Ixriport Dock of Sevenbeen acres, has been modern- ized and is now reached by a channel eighty feet wide and thirty-one feet deep, while its north and east quays :have been widened by twenty feet and new large transit sheds built. Liners of 8,000 tons are now using the deck. At the London docks the former narrow entrance to the western dock has been widened to sixty feet, and a ferro-Concrete jetty 800 feet long by 196 feet wide is now in full use, with double story sheds of special value for wool and auger. By the impound- ing station the water is kept at four and a half feet above Trinity high wa- ter mark. At Tilbury docks for large liners one of the new sheds bas an area of 78,000 square feet and two others have an aggregate of 85,000 square feet. The riverside jetty, 1,000 feet long by fifty feet wide, is making -good progress. There is now,temporarily shedding to accommodate 60,000 bales of wool at the Victoria and Albert docks; other sheds at the west and south- west India docks; one at Millwall with an area of 110,000 square feet and new sheds at the Surrey docks, 200,- 000 square feet, are nearly finished. WAR POSTMAN FIRM ALLIES - – British and French Clerks in Paris Bureau on l3est of Terms. The Anglo-French war post office is now located at the corner of the Boulevard Hausmann and the Rue Gluck, opposite the Opera, Paris, and is one of the most complete in exist- ence. The Figaro calls it a Paris- ianized corner of Piccadilly and com- ments on the friendly relations of the khaki clad British postal employees with their French associates. All of the British are men, but in the French staff are many women who already have won fame for the alertness and efficiency. Although the bulk of the business of this office concerns the war in one way or another and is therefore of comparatively recent ori- gin, all is handled with the same promptness and precision as in the long established bureaus. Parcel post matter as well as letter inail is handled through this bureau, which is under direct control of the British War Office. An Important Question. Promoter (enthusiastically)—There is no doubt that the scheme will pay. Cautious Inventor—Oh, none What- ever! But who will get the money?. Forgiving, without forgetting is a good deal like giving a receipt for money without signing your nanie to it. Ills Fa se Was Covered With Pimples. Pimples are not a serious trouble, but they are very unsightly. Pimples are caused wholly ,by bad blood, and to get rid of them it is neces- sary to purify the blood of all its lite. purities„ Burdock Blood Bitters has made many remarkable eures; the pimples have all disappeared, and a bright, clean, com- plexion left behind. Mr, Lennox D. Cooke, Indian Path, NM, writes: "I am writing you a few line.s to tell you what Burdock 13lood Bitters has done for inc. Last winter my face was covered with pimpleo. I tried different kinds of medicine, and all seemed to fail. I was one day to a friend's house, wed there they advised me to use B.B,B., so 1 purchased two bottles, and before 1 liact them taken I found 1 was getting better. I got two more, and wheii they were finished 1 yeas completely cured, X find it is a great blood purifier, and 1 recommend it to all."

I According to press reports,' Sweden proposes to cut off the export of chemical pulp to Great Britain. Na- turally all eyes are immediately turn- ed to Canada to suPply the threaten- ed deficiency. The Commission of Conservation. has just issued •a report on "Forest Protection in Canada, 1913-1914," which is of particular interest in this connection. It contains -much infor- mation respecting the work of the provincial forest services and of the 1 federal departments intrusted with • the care of our forests. I Forest fire protection is assuming! ! a large place in public attention. It is obvious that if Canada is to continue I as a wood -producing country, elle; must conserve her resources of this' natural product. The report treats exhaustively of the fire protection of ; forest lands along railway right-of- way. Through co-operative action; great headway has been made in se- curing the reduction of forest losses; through forest fires traceable to mail - way causes The forests of British Columbia and: on Dominion lands in the West have been dealt with in reports containing tho results of special ed by Dr. C.

The Great Multitude—Review, Gold- en Torte Revelation 7. 16. 17. 1, The Bible and the crowd. The Scripture deals with Men in the mass and with individuals. It faces the need of the crowd and of the single soul • wrestling with its destiny. It closes, not with a vision of a few , chosen individuals or a chosen people lifted to eternal blessedness, but of a great multitude winning through to the Eternal City. One of the greatest needs of Christianity is that its preachers and teachers should learn; to think religion in group terms. They must get the vision of God which Jesus declared was minutely personal; and yet is also wider than the race.! The ancient prophet:- shows us the compassion of God brooding over the 1 helpless children and the dumb beasts of that great city of Nineveh, "six - score thousand that knew not their right hand over their left, and also much cattle," Jesus shows us • the heart of God as the tears stream down his face when he thinks of the needs of the crowded, life of Jerus- alem. 2. A community religion. The les- sons for the quarter 'have been the story of the development of a com- munity religion. The little...company! of the disciples is enia.rged_into a eoni-' monwealth working out their common life together; then comes the story of their reaching out, touching; far ; cities and gathering in other peoples; , the host of witnesses, heroes'and; martyrs of the faith are unseen help- ers; they belong to the company. Now comes the vision of the great result' —a glimpse of that great far-off clay; when the life of God shall fill thel earth, when for the common -people, the rough places shall have been made! simple and • the crooked places" straight, when in the justice and righteousness of the common life all flesh together shall see the glory of the Lord revealed. The purpose . of our religion is not simply the salva- tion of souls, but the redemption of the world. 3. Is the individual lost? For a long while the church has been think- ing only of the individual. It is truly said that Jesus has discovered him. We can never stop thinking of him. • The crowd cannot deal with him alone. To find him and save him we must find his -relationship to the crowd and the crowd's relationship to him. We must lift the pressure of the crowd from his life. We cannot leave him in the jail after the slum bas robbed his life of strength- and surrounded it With evil. We cannot take him out of the crowd. We must change the slum if we are to do this. This will not take responsibility away 'from in- dividuals; it will increase it. It will not let them escape by saying it was not their fault; it will set them to work to change the conditions that overcame them. 4. Body and Soul. There is no des- cription of the Holy City by the pro- phets and seers which does not spe- cifically declare that the physical needs of life are met. They declare and again that there shall be no want and no complaining, no sorrow, no crying, that God shall wipe away all tears. This lesson does not merely give a figurative description of a ter and serve very hot: If there are !any left over, they are delicious toasted. Useful Hints. Always dip the hands in cold water before making pastry. Plaster of Paris if mixed with vine- gar can be worked like putty. A good cereal coffee is an exellent thing for the school children's break- fast. All suet that comes into the kitchen should be saved and clarified by melt- ing. Clothes that must be iroaed 'in a short time must be sprinkled with very hot Water. Ahvays use the (hen on ironing day for preparing dishes which require slow cooking.

The Trent watemshed in Ontario, has also received espeeinl attention, in a report of an investiga- tion by Dr. C. D. Howe in the town- ships of Burleigh and Methuen. This district is important in that, while •of very little value as an agricultural area, it is being repeatedly overrun by forest fires and the little remain- ing merchantable thnber destroyed. It is suggested that the area be placed under the control of the Dominion Forestry Branch for protection from' fires and for reforestation. TOYS MADE IN CANADA.

With a view to encouraging the fallen material, says the Adelaide lue f over years, very much larger quantities were imported despite an adverse trade balance for Canada and in the face of a supply in Canada of better timber at an equal or lower cost, grown and manufactured entirely within the Dominion. The Dominion Government has in past years used many million feet of Southern pine in various public works but hencefomth Canadian timber will be used to the exclusion of the foreign article. Douglas fir will replace Southern pine in such works as Que- . In previous bec and Montreal harbor improve- ments and Hudson Bay terminals. Douglas fir has been used entirely in the Toronto Harbor works, as a clause ! was inserted in that contract calling ' for Canadian Material. The action of Baron, Shaughnessy in riding that Canadian timber only shall be used in works of the Canadian Pacific railway shows that large private users are !,also finding it consistent with present conditions to use Canadian products. Other consumers throughout Eastern Candda, large and, small, will follow the lead of the two largest users. Architectural and engineering profes- sions also are rapidly replacing South- ern pine by Douglas fir and the im- ported woods by the home grown pro. - duct. ' MODERN BREAD FROM HEAVEN..

An organ- ization barely 10 years old, which has for the most vital part of its material the unknown, it is remarkable for the ffi • 6 h whicb it the enormous burden. thrown on it, never feiling, never breaking down. It has done more .to',eliange the Con- dition of fighting than any other single thing. It means the abolition of independent action' and the con- summation of highly -organized and -concerted action. It gathers infor- mation, distributes information; it gives orders, it makes dispositions, scatters ships to tea four quarters and concentrates them to within ten ; minutes of a given time at a single • :point on a blanch chart, and it does' ' more wonderful and fateful things than these, of which nothing can be !said here. In the olden days a eap- tain of a ship could get out of touch f with his squadron and act independ- ently. The admiral of a squadron• ! could set sail, and once he was over the horizon he had nothing to consalt but his own ideas, and nobody to consider but hunseet. The admiralty, once it had formed and equipped the fleet and appointed the commander- in-chief, had little further part in the strategical and tactical disposi- tions; war was made by the coin - m c e now the wire- less tentacles reach everywhere, and there is no element in which a com- mander is free from the supervision of the Admiralty. If he flies up In the air it ean follow him there, and if he dives down to the bottom of the sea, although it will not dive af- ter him, it will be waiting for him when lie comes to the surface en- quiring where he has been, and why, Even the commander-in-chief has the Board of Admiralty ever at his ear, and an idea conceived in a Cabinet or War Council in London may be transmitted to and imposed upon the fleet far away at sea within an hour, As to all this, it may briefly be HOrIESTLY BELIEVED NE WAS COCO INTO CONSUMPTION* DR.

WONDERFUL BEAN GERMANY CAN'T GET 300 DIFFERENT VARIETIES OF , SOYA BEANS Manchurian Product From Whose Oil Dynamite Can be Made There is a little bean, sometimes green, sometimes black, but Mostly yellow, more or less unknown to the general public in this country, which Germany badly wants, but can't' get. • The Soya bean is its name, and it is one of the most wonderful produc- tions of the soil we have. It can be • —and is—used in manufacturing doz- ens of things, dynamite and high ex- plosives being among them. I Before the war Germany was sa anxious to have soya beans that tha import duty was. specially taken oft them; now, thanks to the British navy, she can only get the beans by smuggling them in small quantities through neutral countries. She wanted to grow them herself, and because I had been successful in starting crops of soya beans in both West and South Africa, I was ap- proached in the matter. I told the Germans that the beans would not grow hi their country, which was, doubtless unpleasant to them says a writer. Soya beans come from Manchuria chiefly; one-quarter of the cultivated ground there is occupied by the plants, which stand from one and a. half to four feet in height and bear pods of about two inches in length, containing two to five seeds. Marvelous Use of the Bean In all, there are 300 different vari- eties of soya beaus, and haw wonder- ful the bean is can, be seen from the following uses to which it can be put: Human consumption, as a, vegetable, like marrowfat peas, and In prepara- tion of soups.
