Good Habits.
The work of. our bodies is affected
by our health habits,. Our activities
and our relationship to others are con-
trolled by the habits we have teemed.
Even; a watch does better when it is
regularly wound. Our lieree are much
more satisfactory to ourselves and to
others when our fundamental habits
have been ,farmed against a back-
ground of a wholesome, sane, well-con-
trolled harms life.
Bad food habits wreck many lives.
Children whoare indulged and catered
to at home s'find hardships, -awaiting
them when they grow up and are ob-
liged t� deal with the impersonal man-
agement of hotels', boarding-houses,
restaurauts and lunch counters. As a
part 6f our lives that takes attention
at least three times a day, and that
can reduce our efficiency almost' to
nothing, food habits' deserve more than
the casnal consideration we now give
Fast eating is not confined to child-
hood. Many adults need to have some-
one take them in, hand and help them
conquer the habit of rushing through a
meal, washing down with liquids the
'food that does not adopt a breakneck
pace,
Health Habits. e
It is the same wax with the health
habits. People become .'indoor mend -
eft," and shut themselves away from
refreshing- air. Ove•reheated houses
and offices bring the nate tiestate of
mind that shuts clown the windows and
places tugs under doors for fear that
a little "air nuay be felt." Exercise
becomes inconvient; and, with thisloss
go, the, delightsof the bath and rub-
bing down. after active exertion. When
baths ar:0 taken merely far the pur-
pose of keeping cleans one has cut
himself off from the best forms of one
of the pleasures of life.
• There is a gradual 'Surrender to
habits of ease and indulgence, until it
es believed. that middle life is a series
of pittialLs, from which health can be
rescued only by the aid of •drugs and
doctors. It is easy to degenerate into
a sedentary life and gradually make
surrender to old age before its time.

A Man No One'Could Lift.
A new trick recently caused con-
siderable excitement in Paris. Johnny
Coulon, an American and former ban-
tam -weight champion boxer challenged
the strongest Inan of Taancesto lift
him. His „one et:sedition, according ha
newspaper dispatches; was that'his 05-1
panent should face him and grasp him '
at his sides between his ribs and hie
hips. BefOre the word was given Cou-
lon would rith the neck of his opponent
"slightly just below the point of the
left jaw and, letting one or two fingers.
rest there, :would lightly place two fin-
gers of his left hand on the other's
right ,wrist. And hi S abponent •could
not lift him!
At first people were amazed, . es-
pecially when it was said that: a magic
current, generated by the position of
Coulon's hands, held the little man
fixed to the ground. But after a while
the trick was shown to hie very simple
indeed. ,
It -wee the position that the big man
was obliged to take that made it im-
possible for him to lift the bantam
weight. By placing his fingens under
his opponent's jaw, Coulon kept him
at such a distance that he could not
get sufficient purchase to lift even a
much lighter weight, for when he be-
gan to lift, the.centre,of gravity was
in front of his toes, and he overbal-
anced. Like the man in the familiar
old trick who, bending over a chair
with his head against the wall, tries, to
lift the chair and in the same move-
ment to stand •erect, the big French-
man was handicapped; he was on the
shaft end of the lever.

A Picturesque Herding.

many curious 010 -world customs aro
associated , with the Mennonites in

One • Apple.
In an orchard from which twelve
thousand barrels of apples are shipped
eVery year. one individual appl.e does

in just suich an orchard not long ago
the foreman of tire packing form made
tile
determined search for one apple.
"We've get to find it!" he declared.
"Come on now."
The mn. en Soolearned that the ap-
ple was in one of two barrelsthat had
just been beaded up. Intothe first
went a packer; he tonic out the first
layer and the second and third and so
on down through half th•e barrel be-
fore the -desired apple appeared.
"See!" creicl. the foreman, turning
the fruit bottom up. "Note that speck
of rat? That's why I was so insistent."
One of the pickers had found the
apple on the ground. It was a singu-
larly large and well -shaped winesap,
and it Weighed half an ounce more
than the biggest apple ever found in
that orchard', but it was a windfall and
ara•s bruised'.
"These barrels go into cold, storage,"
explained the f areman. "They are for
late winter and early spring trade and.
will bring high prices. That speck of

Gradually, but surely, a reputation
has been built up for Canadian' fleece
wools on the domestic and foreign
markets; and Canadian grades are now,
established standard in 'every part,leu-
lar, and have proved satistaetorY 111
every way. Through the effortg of the
Canadian Co-operative Wool Growers,
which ha's its headquarte•rs. at Toronto,
and branches. at Weston, Ontario; Len-
noxvi-lle, Quebec, and Regina., Sas-
katehewan, all Canadian mills are now
fully aware of the fact that the sheep
owners of Canada can produce wool
the equal of any other, grade for
grade, whilst the United. States mar-
ket has likewise been fairly well es-
tablished for graded Canadian fleece
-wools, a number of ehe largest and
best mills in the Republic beings quite
extensive users of Canadian grades,
Some difficulty has been. experienced
in interesting English mills in Cana-
dian. wool, but extended and persistent
effort has resulted in a ce.rtain mea-
sure of success in'this direction. Since
the middle of October to the end -
of the year 1923, the Canadian Co-
operative Wool Growers placed ap-
proximately 700,000 pounds of wool
with London and Bradford firms, one
order alone being for half a million
pounds. This order was shipped In
November, and immediately upon its -nese
arrival and examination in Bradford,
the purchasers cabled for a further
quantity of eimilar grade and quality.
,Growth of the industry.
Tile manner in which Cana.dian wool
exports have grown since the co -opera -
tive Organization, with their system-
ized methods, came into existence, is
very remarkable. The total Canadian
wool exports in the year 1907 amount-
ed to 1,229,390 pounds'. In 1911, the
volume of export was 1,196,924 pounds,
and in 1914, 2,841,184 pounds. This re-
presents an increase of approximatelsr
130 per cent_ for the s•even years. By
919 the volume o1 export had, in-
reased to 4,351,839 pounds, of which
77,1_00 pounds went to the United
ningdom and 4,575,364 to the United
tates. In the year 1923 Shipments
°tailed 8,667,400 pounds; 32,747
ounds golfg to the United Kingdom.
nd 8,614,609 ta the United States. The

Cutting Scotland in Two!
The Panama Canal has been an als:
mast priceless asset to America—for
it constitutes a short cut for ships go-
ing from, the Caribbean tothe Pacific,
whicli has resulted in the savingof
millionsof dollars worth of fuel. Simi-
larly, the canal which it is proposed
to cut across Scotlan•cl will be an in-
calculable boon to the whole of the
United Kingdom,
The proposal for the coneteuetion of
the canal was first advanced many
years ago, but something has. always
prevented the final plans being put in-
to execution. However, the fact that
an enormous volume of trade is being
lost to thls. country, owing to the ab-
.s.ence of the canal, is growing more
and more apparent, and. the Mid -Scot-
land Ship Canal National Association
are doing their utmost for the success
of the project.
Saving Six Hundred Miles.
How does the position stand at the
present time? The fact is. that Britain
blocks the traffic routes between a
number of large Continental ports and
America. Just as veesels which now
go through the Panama. Canal pre-
viously had to make a detour round,

There Is already a Forth and Clyde eh
canal, but it is fitted only for barges,
and not ocean-going traffic, and is of
comparatively little use.
th
There are many arguments for and
against such a canal. In th,e first
placre, while it would involve the ex-
penditure af many niillione of dollars,
this would, at the same time, help to
