Flush the bowels with water enemas. In ordinary cases, this treatment will cure a cold in one day. When the cold has developed into a sore throat, cough, or "settled on the chest," it takes longer. But in every case it will prevent complications and hasten the recovery. For sore throat or cough, cold applications to the throat or chest, covered by a thickness of cloth to keep in the heat as it rises through the cold compress from the fevered body, with inhalations of hot steam, and given a little time for these measures to take effect, is all that is necessary. For gathering in the ears to which some children seem predisposed, take warm water and castile soap, making a light suds, and use a small syringe to wash out the ear, and when clear of the matter, rinse with clear warm wa- ter in which two or three drops cf car- bolic acid to the pint have been used. If the ear does not improve under this treatment, take the child to an aurist. A little peroxide of hydrogen instead of the acid will cleanse just as well. Put a teaspoonful of the peroxide in a half cup of warm water. Everyday scalds and cuts may be treated with dry powdered sulphur after being cleansed. Repeat every day until a scab forms. One cleansing is generally sufficient each day, but the sulphur may be used oftener.

Final estimates of the production of wheat in 1911 have been received by the Institute from all the important countries. The total production in the Northern Hemisphere is 3,154,360,000 bushels against 3,185,565,000 in 1910, a decrease of 31,205,000 bushels, The exceptional decrease of 266,000,000 bushels in Russia was almost balanced by large increases in Canada and in most of the countries of Europe. The total for the Southern Hemisphere (preliminary estimate) is 200,988,000 compared with 275,810,000 in 1910. This makes the world's total, according to the Institute 3,445,348,000 bushels as against 8,461,375,000 produced by the same countries in 1910. Adding the production of a number of smaller countries as given by Dornbusch we have 3,568,148,000 bushels for 1911 against 8,575,37b for 1910. The world's for 1911 according to Broomhall is 3,- 451,992,000 bushels, according to Beer- bohm, 3,456,000,000.

Among these is the first of a series of articles on the Culture of BIack and Silver Foxes, which should prove of interest to the many seeking practical information on this subject. A new feature this month is the crea- tion of a Game Conservation Depart- ment edited by Mr. Frank Hyde, wherein matters pertaining to the sub- ject of game conservation will be free- ly discussed. As this subject is a live one at the present time and is likely to be for some time to come, or until the improved taws, for which good sports- men are agitating have been enacted, this department should prove of excep- tional interest Children are much more likely to contract the diseases when they have colds. Whooping cough, diphtheria, scarlet fever and consumption are dis- eases that are often Llontracted when the child has a cold. That is why all medical authorities say beware of colds.

The editor of Toronto Star Weekly takes a philosophic view of the man- ner in which election campaign funds are sometimes (so it is said) disposed of. He writes: "I have always a greed that politicians, even heelers, are more honest than they are given credit for. Give one of them a thousand dol- lars with which to corrupt voters, and very likely, when he reaches the scene of operations, his spirit revolts against the task assigned him. When he sees the smoke curling up to the wintry sky' from the chimney of a cozyfarm-house, and reflects that he is the serpent who is to degrade this Eden, he loathes him- self and his errand. In the village he sees people leading simple and arduous lives, each man inclined to vote as his father did before him. Is he to corrupt these people and leave them with sear- ed consciences? No. It is an evil busi- ness, and he is too honest a man to have anything to do with it. So he sews the thousand dollars inside the lining of his own vest and bribes no- body. Prete et y ed by such m¢ the n great bulk of the electorate are uncorrupted and safe from temptation," Children.

The Senoussi Area Race of Hardy and Desperate Fighters, Out of Egypt into the Tripoli hin- terland a man may go by many routes ---there aro at least three tracks acture the Lybian desert—bat he is not like- ly to return unless he has been lucky enough to gain the friendship of a fienous4 chief. The perils and the cl:suoinforts of the journey are many, but they are as nothing compared with the dangers of visiting the Se- noussi in their own country unin- vited. writes an officer of the Egypt tain Police. The word "country" does not to out Eeelish mind convey anything like a correct impression of those vast and desolate regions Alen lie behind the Tripolitan coast line and stretch i'n endless repetition across the great Sa- hara to the marshes of Lake Tchad, It is not a country, it is the water, less bed of a dead ocean, the sands of which have been blown into mama tain ridges by a million years of wind ever blowing in the same direction. To live—to exist in such a region— requires untiring energy, a constitu- tion of iron, and a spirit capable of bearing the unkindest blows cfate with equanimity. The Arabs of the desert are fatalists of necessity. The elaborate puddle, result of ten .years' delving, the barley patch, the palm grove, may be blotted out of existence by a six hours' gale. The Arab does not sit down and weep, he gathers together his wives, his sons, and his daughters, collects his little flock of sheep, packs all his possessions on the backs of whatever camels he is lucky enough to possess (or steal), and set out afoot to seek a new water hole and to commence life afresh. In the matter of religion the Sen - ousts are fanatic as the dervishers of the Soudan, but with a fanaticism bussed upon the pride of race rather than on the lusts of the flesh. No- where in all the world is honor such in a • a avital fetorin everyday a Y Y llfe as this wild region. It is not honor such as we understand it, but it is a code of honor set up by the Senoussi Em- irs, and woe betide the man who vies lates that code. You znay steal, you may kill, you may lie, but friendship and hospitality are sacred. The Turks and Arabs fleeing from. the Italian troops down on the littoral will take their tale to Jaraboob, and the thirty Emirs will sit in conclave and discuss the situation. Then one of two things will happen. Either the hinterland will be declared an in- dependent Senoussi State or else a holy war against the invaders will be declared. In the first case, the Italians will meet with no serious opposition, but now and then a band of young men from the interior will swoop down and obliterate some -unfortunate Ital- ian post, sometimes by surprise, but more often through treachery. There will be endless years marked only by "regrettable incidents." Reprisals are absolutely impossible. If, on the other hand, the Senoussis raise the banner of the Prophet and preelainz a holy. war, they will not only have armed support of the in- habitants of the coastwise townships, but every Arab trader, slaver, smug- gler, and loafer between Lake Tchad and the Nile will trek to Tripoli in the hope of loot in the present and Paradise hereafter, The looting of a J urapeau army would offer an irre- e eistible temptation to all the scum of the Saharan borders. There has been much talk of the available Turkish forces in Tripoli, and many attempts to estimate the reeistauce they are likely to offer. I do not know anything about the Turk• is h garrison, but I do know what force the Senoussi trifles could put hat). the field if they were so minded, and this entirely apart from the sup. port of the coastwise • inhabitants. Essence of Good Cooking. The essence of good cooking lies in four things—the ability to preserve, develop, improve and vary the flavor of foods. The French excel particu- larly in the art of varying the flavor. A small piece of meat, suffices them to make a whole pot of vegetables redolent of it. Conversely, they use all sorts of vegetables to irnpart their unique flavor to meats — in soups, stews, sauces and the water in which meat or fish is boiled. The combines tions and variations are endless. An English epicure declares that the se- cret of the excellence of French cook- 'ery lies in the lavish use made 01 vege- tables. "Where we use one kind French cooks use twenty:" The Wisdom of Fools, Folly, in the abstract, has been de- nounced alike by Scripture and an- cient heathen sages. "If I wish to look at a fool," says Seneca, "I have not far to look. I have only to Iook in a mirror." The Emperor Maximil- ian distinguished the dullest of his counsellors by the title of the king of fools. Once when lie addressed a prosy adviser by this title the gen- tleman neatly enough replied: "I wish with all my heart I were king of fools. I should have a glorious king- dom and your imperial majesty would be among my subjects." . The Japanese Way. The question of choice between two vases was decided by a patron in a Japanese shop when the proprietor said: "That smaller vaso, madam, is thoroughly Japanese in form and de- coration. That floral pattern in gold around the upper half is characteris- tic, and so; too, is the exceedingly narrow wed short neck. The vase will hold but a single blossom that should be long stemmed and stand upright. Thus the flower will be individualiz- ed and the vase likewise. That is the Japanese way." Craving Pow Variety. The servant girl who had been given an afternoon to to attend a matinee returned unusually early. "Why," said her mistress, "you surely couldn't have waited to sec the whole performance?" "No, ma'am," was the reply. 'wgc, said en the program that aot 3 tvet the same as act 1, and I don't want to see it again.

This spot increased in size until it became about half an inch la diameter and very painful. I went to a doctor, but the ointment be gave mo did not have any good effect.
