EDITORIAL NOTES
lightning, he says, is a huge electric
spark travelling, it has been calculated,
at "nearly 290,000 miles in a second,"
although goodness knows how the cal-
culation was made. Of the various
forms of lightning, sheet lightning is
quite harmless, as it is generally mere-
ly the reflection of a flash so far dis-
tant that the accompanying thunder
cannot be heard. When the storm
comes we see the lightning itself usu-
ally in the zigzag or forked form. The
nearer the storm the less interval of
time there is between the flash and
thun.ier; when it is overhead these are
similtaneous, and this is, of course, the
most dangerous time A phenomenon
called globe lightning is of rare occur-
rence, and has not yet been satisfactor-
ily explained.
It is not possible to dodge lightning;
but several means may be adopted for
securing the maximum of safety. The
following may prove useful hints:
A thunderstorm is most dangerous
when it becomes before rain has fallen.
It is unwise to stand near or under
lefty buildings or in porches or door-
ways.
Contiguity to fireplaces is dangerous.
and between an open window and a
fireplace is a bad position.
The well-known practice of closing
windows, covering mirrors, and remov-
ing articles of metal is based on sound
scientific principles.
The safest part of a room is the cen-
tre, and the lower part of the house is
safer than the upper.
Standing under the shade of isolated
high trees is to be avoided.
Mr. Monk's reply is convincing. He
resigns. It is understood that he does
so because of his inability to agree
with hie colleagues on the naval policy.
It is not often that a Canadian cabinet
minister resigns on a question of policy
and resumes his seat as a private mem-
ber. Whether we agree or not with
the opinions of Mr. Monk, there will be
a general impulse throughout the coun-
try to give him credit for choosing to
stand by the principles he advocates. -

It is almost surprising to learn that
of the 49,764 school children examined
in Buffalo, only 19,156 have defective
teeth. The other 30,608 children, with
whose teeth no fault is found, are for-
tunate indeed. If there is any reason-
able way of impressing upon them the
need of properly caring for their teeth,
it should be emphasized. Other things
being equal these children have a great
advantage in the strife of life. Tooth-
ache is one of the most widely preva-
lent causes of distress, and young per-
sons who keep their teeth good should
be spared a deal of misery and conse-
quent handicap in the affairs of life. -

THE PERSONAL ELEMENT.
Much of one's success in life is due
to the personal element. This element
is of much greater importance than
many suppose. It does not make so
much difference as to what school the
boy or girl may attend, but it some-
times does make a difference as to the
teacher under whose personality the
boy or girl may come. What counts is
what each boy or girl may get out of
the school he or she attends. or from
the personality of the teacher.
In the business world many a man
who has failed or who has made only a
moderate success is prone to charge his
failure to "luck." In most instances
chance has nothing to do with it. The
opportunities may have been equal, but
one man through the personal element
was able to better grasp these oppor-
tunities than the other was able to
grasp them. Many a man is at times
inclined to quarrel with the conditions
that surround him, when the trouble
really is in himself.
In no work does the personal element
count for more than in the work of the
deputy for a fraternal insurance socie-
ty. Surely in this work the opportuni-
ties are about the same for each work-
man. One man will make a success in
territory where another man would be
a total failure. The cause lies wholly
in the difference of the personal ele-
ment of the two men. A sunny dis-
position, a genial nature, a refusal to
be cast down by rebuffs mean success
for the one and failure for the other. -

Brazil has the steepest railroad in the
world -gradients of 92 feet in 1,000.
From the Clyde shipyards the output
for the nine months of the present year
amounts to over 470,000 tons, and is
larger than in any corresponding period.
Thos. Howe, aged 22, an Englishman,
who worked in a blacksmith shop near
Whalen, seeing a crane flying by seized
a shotgun and shot at the bird. It fell
to the ground wounded, and Howe re-
loaded the gun. Seeing that the bird
was not dead he struck it with the gun
to Kill it, and in doing so the trigger
snapped and Howe's left lung was eom-
pietely torn out.

There are three or four things
around a house whieh tell to the
critical eye whether or not the mis-
tress of that home is a good housekeep-
er.
Of course, all women pride them-
selves on knowing how to run their
homes and how tokeep them clean.
Yet one often enters a room where,
to all appearances, everything is in
perfect order, the room neat as regards
all chairs being carefully arranged for
comfort, and all books and magazines
on the living -room table neatly fixed;
but in spite of all this, the place be-
speaks a poor housekeeper to the wo-
man who knows.
For instance, the globes on the vari-
ous lights around the room may be
dark with dust, while the lamp may
share the same fate. The floors, too,
may be dusty and in want of polish.
A visit to the dining -room will show
this room has the same tidy appearance
as the living -room, but that the silver
is badly tarnished for want of a weel--
ly cleaning and that the cut glass looks
misty and decidedly dirty.
If the kitchen is visited the stove
will probably show that it has not been
blackened for months, while the globes
will have the marks of grease upon
them. The woodwork will also look as
though it needed the scrubbing brush,
but, like the other rooms, the kitchen
will appear tidy, showing that the
housekeeper though she is neat, is not
clean, and these two things must go
together if the house is to speak well
of the care and attention of the mis-
tress.

CAUSE OF COLD SORES.
The lips should be soft and smooth
and red as the veriest rose. Are yours?
If you cannot boast of these additions
to the beauty of your mouth, then it is
your duty to start a crusade for the
improvement of the lips immediately.
If you will massage lips daily with a
dainty cream, and guard against cold
sores, I see no reason why in a short
time you should not have pretty lips.
Anyone who -is addicted to cold sores
will be more than pleased to know what
causes their hideous excrescences and
what treatment will reduce them to
submission.
Cold sores are generally an indication
that your system is in disorder, so while
you treat them externally, as your
judgment may dictate, it would be an
act of wisdom to investigate the gener-
al state of your health.
Irregularity of the eliminative organs
is one of the specific causes of cold
sores, so be careful to keep them in a
healthful condition.
A disordered stomach has also been
known to bring out the ugly sores in
abundance, Eat wisely and you will
not be so apt to be a "cold sore" vic-
tim.
What external treatment do I advise?
Theree are several treatments that meet
with my approval, but my favorite cold
sore banisher is peroxide of hydrogen.
This liquid should be applied to the cold
sore with a camel's hair brush several
times each day, until sore dries up and
fades into oblivion.
When you have a bad cold you want
the best medicine obtainable so as to
cure it with as little delay as possible.
Here is a druggist's opinion: 'I have
sold Chamberlain's Cough Remedy for
fifteen years," says Enos Lollar of Sar-
atoga, Ind., "and consider it the best

Text of the Lutonr Mark viii, 11.26,
Memory Verses, 14, 1ti-•Golden Text,
John viii, 12 (R. V.) -Commentary
Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns.
Having again crossed the sea atter
Ile had fed the 4,000, the Pharisees and
Sadducees came to Ulm tempting Him
and asking Him to show them a alga
from heaven. He called them a
wicked nue adulterous generation and
said that no sign would he given unto
them, but the sign of the prophet
Jowls (verses 11. 12; Matt. xvi. 1-4).
This was his second reference to
Jonah. Ou the former occasion Ho
spoke 6'e his experience in the belly
of the ash and said that so He would
bo three days and three nights in the
heart of the earth (Matt. xii, 12-40).
The Pharisees believed in angels,
spirits and the resurrection, bet were
self righteous formalists. hypocrites,
covetous and did their works to be
seen of men.
The Sadducees did not believe fn the
resurrection Mark sit. 181. His spirit
was grieved beenuse of them, so He
left them and again went across the
sea with His disciples, having only
one loaf in the boat with them, for the
disciples forgot to take bread as He
charged them to take heed and beware
of the leaven of the Pharisees and of
the Sadducees and of Herod. They
thought that He was referring to their
forgetfulness in the matter of bread.

careful concerning what we eat and
drink, but receiving the most poison-
ous things for our minds in the way
of doctrine and from the daily papers
and magnztnes. now they could think
that tack of bread would he at alt per-
plexing to Him whom they had seen
feed 5,000 and 4,000 with a few loaves
and fishes seems indeed strange, and
we do not wonder that He reminded
them of these events and said: "Hav-
ing eyes, see ye not? And, having ears,
hear ye not? And do ye not remem-
ber? How is It that ye do not under-
stand?" (Verses 17-21; Matt. xvi, 8-
12.) When Be said plainly. "1 spake
not to you concerning bread," then
they understood that Ile referred to
the doctrine of the Pharisees and of
the Sadducees.
In addition to What we said above
concerning these two classes of peo-
ple, It might be added that the Phari-
sees denied any necessity for Christ's
first coming, and the Saddncees denied
His second coming. saying there is no
resurrection, neither angel nor spirit,
nor futnre rewards and punishments
(Acts =ill, 8). The leaven of Herod
suggests worldiness In every form,
with a bit of religion. for Herod feared
John the Baptist and observed him,
heard him gladly and slid many things,

believe -that tbere is no place in the
Bible where leaven ever means any-

of the kingdom when it shall have
come, but of this present age of the
mysteries of the kingdom (Matt, /Iii,
11), while He and It are both rejected
and the church is being gathered. Not
one of the four parables gives any en-
couragement to look for a converted
World In thus age; and the story of the
leaven teaches that the 'woman, the
professing church, will thoroughly cor-
