Thom ands of tons of scrap steel have been salvaged from all the battle -fields. A good share of this sal vege work has been dune by the1 troops of the Arlie armies, but also a large amount of it has been done by the German prisoners of war. At practically all the railroad eta tions in the ateighborhood oL' Etain and Bar -le -Due train -loads can be seen of the crooked, rusted barbed-wire en tanglement rods, stacked up like cord wood, waiting for shipment. There are small mountains of miscellaneous scrap -iron, and piles of havy corm gated steel sheets are a characteristic sight in salvage dumps and railroad yards throughout the battle regions In the centre and toward the eastern end of the line this work has been car Tied nearer' to completion than at the aorthwestere end, In the northwest along the British front, the salvage work has proceeded a bit more slowly, perhaps, but certainly not less thoroughly. ' Prisoners at Work. In the past winter and spring Ger- man prisoners of war were going over the shell -shot battle -fields which had ,been a part of the British front, tear- ing down the corrugated iron shelters, picking up `duds' or unexploded shells, clearing the thickets of barbed wire and chevaux -de -(rise, storing and pal- . Ing up all the salvaged metal in the dumps and loading it on the freight cars and Canal or river' barges. In the salvage dumps you can see wrecks of camions, tanks of ai descriptions, great piles of metal helmets, rifles, bayonets, knives, shells and shell - cases, machine guns, and, in fact, all metal debris of warfare. *metal the one lasting impression made on most gbservers is that of acres of corrugated steel sheets and barbed wire and the twisted rods around which the barbed-wire entanglements had been made. In a good many areas, the artillery -fire had been so in- tense that the soil has been ruined for It a g u ural purposes. In such cases the salvaging is simply to remove the -- dangerous explosive agents and re - cosier the metal junk. In the agricul- tural districts, however, in cases where the shelling was comparatively light and the land had been dug up to make trenches, the salvage work is e closely tied up with that of agricultur- al reconstruction. THE MAN WHO WINS Is Always Fail of Life and Ener ---Failures Are Weak and Bloodless. Some men seem to. have all the ludo, If.there are any good things going these men seem to. get them. They make other perfple do their will —they are leaders. If they are •busi- ness men they are successful; if they are workmen they get the foreman's job. They, have the power of Influ- encing people. The same thing is true of women. Some halts the charm that makes men seek them out; others are always neglected, But this is not luck. It is • due to a personal gift.—vitality. Men and women of this sort are never weak, puny invalids. They may not be big, but they are full of life and energy, The whole thing is a matter of good blood, good nerves and good • health. Everyone would wish to be like this and the qualities that 'make for vitality and energy are purely a • matter of health. By building up the blood and nerves sleeplessness, want of energy, weakness of the back, stooping shoulders, headaches and the ineffectual sort of presence which really comes from weakness can all be got rid of, Dr. Williams' Pink Pills ' have made many weak, tired men, vigorous and healthy, and many ,pale, dejected girls and women plump, rob and attractive, by improving their CRUSOE'S ISLAND. Tobago, Near the Mouth of the Orino- co, Probable Scene of Great Adventure. The name of Robinson Crusoe is forever linked in our memories with a desert island. No particular island comes to my mind as we think of this castaway hero, yet Crusoe himself, or rather Defo''e,tells us exactly where his island is, and all but names it, writes Niksah. , For many years Juan Fernandez, a Chilean island off the eastern coast of South America, was known as Cru- soe's Island because another adven- turer had spent five years there . in solitude, and it was thought for some time that Defoe had recorded this her- mit's experience. But following Crusoe's directions that he landed on an island in a lati- tude of eleven degrees, near the mouth of the Orinoco river, and in sight of the island of Trinadad, we come upon the island of Tobago, the only one answering the description. An interesting discovery which gave prominence to Tobago as the real Crusoe's Island occurred some years ago, when the skeleton of a goat was nearthed in a cave on the island. —his coincided" remarkably with Cm- soe's statemegt that he found a dying goat in a hillside cave and later burled it there. "Crusoe's goat" became for a time an object of great popular in- terest and figured as a prominent ro minent ex- hibit at the Chicago World's Fair. Tobago's failure to obtain greater recognition of its importance as the "only authentic Robinson Crusoe Is- land" is doubtless due to the fact that it is a retiring little island, concerned chiefly with its plantations and trade. Leaving Crusoe out altogether, Toba- go has had an eventful history, from the time it was discovered by Chris- topher Columbus, on his third voyage, until England took it from France in 1808, and started to turn it into a pro- fitable colony. Its present estate after a century of English rule is less that of a desert Island than of a partly wooded, partly cultivated and built-up , isle of the tropics. To Mark oison Bottles.

What a bee does *not know is sup - 'posed to be not worth knowing. That may or may not be true, but two foI- lowing incidents—one of which was witnessed by the writer—testfy to the remarkably sagacity and efficiency of bees. On one occasion a hive was being "spied upon" by a wasp. When a wasp ascertains that a hive is worth attacking, he carries the news to his friends, and sometimes succeeds in ousting or severely worrying the bees. 'While the wasp -scout was nosing around, the bees stayed in the hive, but every time the wasp approached the small entrance hole a bee came out and walked round in a Circle, do- ing sentry -work till the wasp departed. An hour later a wasp—presumably the scout—was found dead on its back en the top of the hive, and the bees were busy again. A French inventor has modeled a monoplane from a winged maple seed. FIGHTING THE HAILSTORM. How European Countries Endeavor to Prevent vterme.... '. Hailstorms are just dreaded by the Canadian farmer, though he suffers from them only occasionally, In Europe, however, they eeenh, for some Mysterious reason, to be far more fre- quent, and the damage they do is enormous, especially In the grape - growing region::. France alone suf- fm's from this cause an annual loss reckoned at $20,P00,000. For centuries, over there, efforts have been made to prevent hailstorms by various ingenious means, the lat- est of which.is what is called the "elefi•; trio Niagara." This contrivance is in 'effect a much elaborated lightning rod—an enorm- ocusly tall and extremely slender tower of light steel rods, which is ex- pected to carry off from the clouds harmlessly a veritable cataract of electricity, Robbed of their lightnings, the clouds are supposed to be render- ed incapable of forming hailstones: Tall poles of steel, or wooden poles carrying lightning rods, have long -been in use for the same purpose in France and other European countries. They have been set up literally by the hundreds of thousands, whole land- scapes being sprinkled with them, Another idea persisteLtly tried has been the bombarding of clouds with explosive Missies or sometimes with rockets. Yet another, more • recent, consists in discharging. smoke -rings from mortars, The smoke is supposed to mingle with the cloud vapor and interfere with the formation of hail. Scientific bodies here and abroad, including our own weather bureau, have made elaborate experimental studies of these methods and have de- clared them worthless'. But the Euro- pean agriculturist believes in their effectiveness with a faith that is al- most religious. GUARD BABY'S . IIE:ILTII 1 THE SHINER The summer months are the most dangerous to children.

Walked on by an Elephant An African wanderer gives an in- teresting account of the reckless dar- ing of the natives in moments of ex- citement. Late in the afternoon he shot two elephants and early the next morning sent some of the attendants out to bring in the tusks. So many hours passed without any tidings of the party that he began to be anxious. In the late afternoon he saw in the distance several men, some mounted, and others on foot, while one led a camel with a curious -looking load. He had a foreboding that something was wrong and in a few minutes I clearly perceived a man lying upon a makeshift litter, carried by the camel, while Dan and Suleiman accompanied the, party horseback. They soon came up. Poor little Dick, a plucky and active ally, lay, as the man thought, dead upon the litter. They removed him gently, adminis- tered spirits, and on examination found his thigh broken a little above the knee. Fortunately it was a simple fracture. Dan now explained the cause of the accident. While the camelmen and others were engaged in cutting up the dead elephants, three aggageers found the tracks of a wounded bull that had escaped into the thick jungle. He was tracked to a position within two or three hundred yards of the dead elephants. As there were no guns, two of the men resolved to ride through the nar- row passages formed by the large game and take their chance with the elephant, sword in hand. Dick, as l usual, took the lead on his little gray mare. With the greatest difficulty he advanced through the tangled thorns, which had been broken by the passage of heavy game. To the right and left of the passage it was impossible to move. Dan had wisely dismounted, but Suleiman followed Dick. On arriving within a few yards of the „elephant, which was invisible in the thick thorns, Dan crept forward on. foot, and discovered him standing with ears - cocked, evidently waiting for the at- tack. As Dick followed on his little gray mare, the elephant caught the white color and at'' once charged. Escape was next to impossible. Dick turned his mare sharp, round, and she bounded Eli; but she' caught in the thorns and fell, throwing her rider in. the path 'of the elephant, only a few feet behind in full chase. •The mare recovered herself in an instant and rushed away. The elephant, occupied by her white color, paid no attention to the man, but trod on him in the pursuit and broke his thigh. Dan, who had been between the. ele- phant and Dick, had wisely jumped into the thick thorns. As the elephant himself passed, he sprang out behind and followed with his drawn sword. Jumping over Dick's body, he was just in time to deliver a tremendous cut at the hind leg of the elephant, that must otherwise have killed both horses and probably Suleiman also, as the three were caught in a passage that had no outlet and would have been at the elephant's mercy. �I• is 0 notorious knacker f ill -1-iealthf TRY It cont'ains the vital mineral ele nents and all the nutriment of ' heat and barley. d7i v fa A book Is an enchanted gate,' , II'i," t'I'rauseeltioutial '�'rai�i That leads to. fairy lands, But cross the threshold and your fate is shaped by witcltiuf hands.

Naming a plant or flower after a celebrity is a delicate compliment, and one that no doubt adds something to the market value, says a writer in the London Daily Chronicle. But there are exceptions. The beautiful variety of the lobelia, for instance, known as "Emperor William," would perhaps hold up its Imperial head a little more proudly just now if it had had a more fortunate christening. Stray thoughts on these lines may have been flickering in the mind of a vendor in a London market -place the other day as a likely looking buyer, while examining a box of the old favorite, asked. what variety it was. Without deranging the muscle of an eyelid the caster (and she was a "lydy," too) replied:—"Douglas 'Aig! Four -and -a tanner a box." -se Central Ypres As War Memorial. The Anglo -Belgian commission, ap- pointed to consider the question of the reconstruction of Ypres, has recom- mended that the central portion of the town be nQt rebuilt. but remain as a historic monument, says an Ypres despatch. That area includes the ruins of the Cloth Hall, the cathedral, the Church of St. Martin, the Palais de Justice and the adjoining cloisters. It is bounded on the north by the Marche de Bois, on the east by the Rue de Dixmude, and on the south by the Grand Place, with, however, in- cluding any ruins on the opposite side of the square, and on the west by the Rue des Hailes. Nearly 1,000 civilians already have returned to dwell amid the ruins. Sense fifty-four auberges and estami- nets are open, nearly all temporary wooden structures, which do a thriv- ing business with British soldiers, Cathedral as War M'emoriai. The Anglican Church Authorities in the diocese of Wellington, New Zea- land, propose to build a cathedral as a memorial to the New Zealanders fallen in the war. it is proposed to erect, in connection with the cathe- dral, a military chapel, dedicated to St. George, which will contain the col- ors of the Allies and regimental flags. Its great windows will syiirbolize all the Allied nations who have fought in the war. The wails of the chapel will be panelled in white marble tablets; on which the names of all New Zealand soldiers, sailors, doctors and nurses who have fallen in the war (irrespec- tive of creed or denomination) will be inscribed in letters of gold There are some 17,000 from New Zealand who have lost their lives in the war. Mlnard's Liniment Cu• res distemper. An Orkney Surprise. A -large number of mines which have become detached from the minefields , in the North Sea around the Orkney Isles have been seen floating quite in- shore. One went ashore at Deerness, and a youth who had journeyed sever- al miles to see it amused himself by throwing stones at it from, as he thought, a safe distance on the cliff above. A stone struck one of the Horns, and the mine exploded with terrific force, tearing hugh boulders and fragments of rock from the cliff face. The youth -was flung skyward and was seriously injured. The clothes in which Lord Nelson died on board the Victory are still preserved at Greenwich Naval Hospi- tal. The County of London, measuring 116 square miles, is split up among over 38,000 indiviidual owners of land, nineteen square miles belonging to the Crown.

Once a week will not be too often for most plants. The late Sir Jo'fn P. Mahaffy, prov- ost of Trinity College, Dublin, was brilliantly witty, and Zany of his good sayings are in general circulation. But he occasionally met his match. One of his encounters was with the late Dr. 'Salmon, provost of Trinity before Dr. Trail, Ma!haffy was one day in- veighing against corporal punishment for boys, which, he declared, never did any good. "Take my own ease," he exclaimed. "I was never caned but once in my life, and that was for speaking the truth." "Well," Salmon retorted caustically, "it cured you."

The rail- ways are the veins and arteries upon which a healthy business body must depend, therefore normally much of his help mast come from them. The . Canadian Pacific, a privately run road, is the first of the railroads to help the business man. . On 'June 1st,the first "Trans- CaJ.xada"--the new transcontinental express of the C.P.R,--pulled out of the Windsor St. Station in Montreal filled to capacity on its three thou- sand mile run to Vancouver. This is the fastest transcontinental train in the world, making the trip from Montreal lo Vancouver in less than four days, to be exact, 93 hours and 30 minutes, and from Vancouver to Montreal in 92 hours 15 minutes, the run being made without change of cars. A whole business day is thus saved for the Business-Mundn-a-Hurry. An interesting point in connection with this train is the fact that more than half of the passengers are gen- erally ' registered from New York, Philadelphia, Boston and other Ameri- can cities, a considerable number be- ing booked for Banff, Lake Louise and points west. One thinks of a transcontinental train as a single unit, but in reality it is made up of a number of com- plete units, A daily service, the trip being four days, requires four trains running each way simultaneously. The equipment of the new de luxe train has an estimated value of $6,000,000, using for the daily run eastbound and westbound, 59 sleeping cars, 5 com- partment cars, 15 diners and 24 loco- motives. oco- motives. • A Famous Fountain. There is a picturesque little spot in the Temple Gardens, London, which, although only a few hundred yards from the roar and hustle of City traf- fic, is really wonderful for the peace- ful solitude of its surroundings. The famous old • fountain there, which dates back as far as 1681, is once again under repair. It was dear to the heart of Charles Lamb, who used to relate that many a time he has made its jet of water rise and fall, "to the astonishment of theoun urchins, g i s, my contemporaries, who, not being able to guess at its re- condite machinery, were almost tempt- ed to hail the wonderous work as magic." Charles Dickens, too, loved the foun- tain, making it, in "Martin Chuzzle- wit," the rendezvous of John West - lock and Ruth Pinch. Lachute, Que., 25th Sept., 1905. Minard's Liniment Co., Limited.

An Art Attained Only By Long Prac- tice. "One pound of old Erliglislt, please." Thus a customer at the cheese coun- ter. The salesman put a one pound weight on one plate of a counter scale, while upon the other he laid a tidy strip of white paper upon which to lay the cheese. Then he removed the wire screen from over an English cheese that stood near on the counter and picked up a large, sharp knife. Without a moment's hesitation or deliberation he set the edge of the knife down on the cheese and then crowded the knife down through it, cutting off a wedge shaped piece which now he laid on that paper on the shale, and the piece of cheese that he had thus cut off weighed exactly a pound, not close to a pound, or anything of that sort, but exactly a pound; the weight and the cheese just balanced. His customer had once before semi this salesman do precisely the same thing, and now the customer ventured to ask: "Do you do that very often?" "Almost always," the salesman said. It seems that experienced cheese cutters come to "know" cheese. Of course cheeses vary in size, in their thickness and in their diameter, and cheeses of like dimensions vary in weight, but by long experience the ex- pert cheese cutter comes to know the cheeses so well that he can cut from any cheese just the right sized slab to make the required weight. He outs with astonishing accuracy. The only cheese that baffles him at all Is the Swiss, this on account of the holes in it, ori rather on account of the peculiarity of Swiss cheese holes. No hurry about laying, by time po- tatoes. It is well to keep tip shallow cultivation as long as the vines will permit. To prevent blight the foliage should lee kept covered with Bordeaux until the crop ;is matured. MOM IIERE 6.11/ERE In Her Malden Cetnpeign.

The Welsh Emblem. It is hinted that a scheme is afoo to secure, if at all possible, the repre sentation of 'Wales on Britain's Roya Arias and coinage. Leading Welshmen are holding national conference in Cardiff to dis cuss the matter, and to choose the armorial bearing. The question is naturally aslctd wil it be a leek, the daffodil, or the Rei Dragon? As Premier Lloyd George appears to have personally adopter the daffodil as the emblem of Wales this leads a cynic to suggest that i' might be called the "taffvdil." A Tale of a Tail. A little girl who loved animal: came home accompanied by a stra dog. "Why, Cissy," said her mother "that dog isn't yours. You have n right to bring him home." "Well, mamma," pleaded Cissy, "h didn't belong to anybody airy mor than the flowers. I can pick flower —wild ones—and keep 'em, and th doggy was just like the flowers, so came along and picked him." At this point the dog turned roun and displayed a noticeable lack of tail whereupon Cissy's small brothel broke in with, "Why didn't you pica a longer stem?"
