UNIVERSAL BIBLE SUNDAY.
The idea of a universal Bible Sunday
is that on one and the same day through-
out the whole Christian world the Holy

consideration, not only in the Churches
and Sunday Schools and wherever
people congregate, but in the press, and
that each recurring anniversary shall be
the occasion for reviewing the position
of the Bible in the world, the prpgress
Of its circulation and translation into
the various languages, and its relation
to all conditions of national and individ-
ual Life. in such an annual review the
discoveries which are every year throw-
ing some new light on the records of
Holy Writ can be laid before the people,
so that the Word of God may be more
deeply studied as its truth is more clear-
ly attested to the intelligence of man-
kind.
The observance of a Bible Sunday
has already made substantial progress
in various parts of the world. It has
been observed for some years spore
dically in. Great Britain, the United
States; Canada, Australasia, South
Africa and in the mission churches of
North Africa. It has been established
in places in China, while in Korea it is
celebrated on a national scale, and wah
last year made the occasion of general
thanksgiving to commemorate the com-
pletion.of the Bible in the Korean lan-
guage. In parts of India it has become

an important annual event, and in a
number of cases the Ilindoos and
Mohammedans join the Christians in
paying honor to the Bible and its .each-
ings.
These observances have taken place
at vat' abs' tidies of Wei/eah; And what
is now wanted is to co-ordinate them
into a common date, so that Christians
everywhere may be one in • this as they
are one in the celebration of Christmas.
The churches of New York have for
some years had a Bible I)ay on the first
Sunday in December. In a cycle of
seven years this would fall four times
on the second Sunday in Advent (the
third Sunday before Christmas), on
which the Episcopal Church of the
United States, and the Anglican Church
throughout the British Empire, specially
refer to the Holy Scriptures. Such a
conjunction with an already widely re-
cognized anniversary seems to make
this an appropriate time for the annual
review of the Bible, and this date does
not conflict with any generally estab-
lished anniversary of other bodies of
Christians.
The third Sunday before Christmas
falls this year on the 7th of December.
Let us therefore join on that date in
exalting the Word of God.

The Celt of Living.
In recent years the cost of living in
Canada has increased to a much great.
er extent than in any other eountry in
the world. Statistics show that it is
still mounting up in the Dominion and,
as one t+.astern paper puts it, mounting
np faster than ever. In September of
this year living expenses in Canada
were considerably in advance of simi-
lar expenses fit September, 1912, as'is -
shown by the report of the Dominion
Department of Labor. Comparing
September in the two years it is neon

clothing, as well as other commodities

FORESTRY FACTS.
A new billletin is now available at
the Forestry Branch, Ottawa, describ-
ing some simple and inexpensive
methods of preserving fence -posts from
decay, It has been found that the
generous application of hot creosote to
well -seasoned posts stripped of bark,
even when only painted on with a brush,
will add at least ten years to the life of
the least durable woods. Many common
Canadian woods which hitherto decayed
oo rapidly to be so used are thus made
available for fence -posts. The saving
in first cost and transporation more
t Ian balances the cost of treatment,
while the cost of placing the post will
be much less when considered as an
annual charge,

ly done by planting a long string of
dynamite cartridges in advance of the
fire, at intervals of two feet. When
these are exploded simultaneously by
means of an electric current, the result
is a ditch four feet wide and two feet
deep, which effectually stops the fire.
Over twelversthousand letters have
already been received this year at the
Dominion Qovernment Forest Nursery
Station at Indian Head (Sask.) and
a'most two and three quarter million
trees distributed for planting on the
farms of Alberta, Saskatchewan and
Manitoba. { To [accommodate this con-
stantly increasing demand, a branch
nursery has recently been established
near Saskatoon. Nine inspectors super-

entering into the living cost, showed a
general increase in price this year.
Animals and meats, butter and eggs,
rolled oats, oatmeal, sugar and other
foodstuffs all cost considerably more
last September than they had cost a
year before. The 'dame statement may
be made in regard to boots and shoes,
textiles, anthracite coal, fuel generally,
house furnishings, building materials
and other less important articles. This
was the condition in September, and it
does not improve as the weeks go on
but, rather, becomes worse. If the
Premier persists in refusal to act for
the relief of the people the electors will
put another in his place and another
party in power who will act. -Regina

The ghostly glimmering of poplar
chips and stumps, frequently observed
in Canadian forests at night, is due to
a fungus known as the 'shoe -string'
fungus, which is commonly found on
large-sized poplars throughout Canada.
It causes al yellowish -white rot which
detracts much from the value of this
wood. The presence of this fungus is
externallyiindieated by the mush -room -
like fruiting bodies which cluster around
the base of the trees. Infected trees
should, when possible, be cut down and
used for fire -wood.
Probably the strongest timber in the
worid.is a species of eucalyptus, known
as yate, which grows to a considerable
size in Australia. Its average tensile
strength is 24,000 pounds per square
inch; in other words a bar of this wood

hold up a weight of twelve tons. This
is equal to good cast iron. No similar
tests of Canadian woods have as, yet
been made, but at the Forest Products
Laboratories, recently established by
the Dominion Government at McGill
University, it if proposed to investigate
the mechanieal properties of native
tree -species, with aview of determining,
on a scientific basis, their utility for
structural work.
There are now twenty-seven tech-
nically trained foresters in the perna-
ment employ of the Dominion Forestry
Branch.
Over 789,000,000 shingles, one-half of
the entire shingle production of Canada

In 1912 the exportation of cotton

But the greater pirtofthe production

"Some years ago, I was sick in bed,

a growth in nhy stomach, which the
doctors said was a Tuhuor and they saki
that the only thing to do was to go to
the hospital and clave tate tumor .cat

both doctors said it was the only cure. I
said I would die beforebeingoperated on.
At this time, my mother in Alvinston

induced me to try them as she had heard
of another woman who had been cured
of a similar growth; in the stomach by
taking "Fruit-a-tives".
To please my mother, I began to take
"Fruit-a-tives" with the happy result
that.they cured me. I have not been

The Hog.
Of all domestic brutes the hog for
swinishness is worst; in alt the bestial
catalogue he's easily the first. For
others he has no regard, has no con-
cern at all; the weaker, pigs he pushes
hard, and sends themto the wall. Ile
gets his Legs inside the trough and
sips the sparkling slop, and t'other hogs
must root him off if they would get a
drop. And when he's riding in a car,
two seats he'll occupy, and smoke a
black and rank cigar, while women
gasp and cry. In mud -holes he inclined
to doze, when there's no grub about; a
ring is fastened through his hose, so he
can't tunnel out, And when he drives
abroad by day, in auto car or siek, all
folks, to give him right-of-way, must
drive into the ditch. Oh, whether he is
in a pen, with garbage heaps to chew,
or in the busy haunts of men, the hog's
a hog all through. You see him fight-
ing for the slop amid the barnyard
gloom; you see him in the barber shop,
in public reading room; you find him in
the synagogue and in the taverns fine;
the hog is evermore a hog, when he is
not a swine.

The Home Realm.
Sleep in an adult is regulated by
habit, but much more so in an infant.
It is most important for the - baby's
welfare and the mother's comfort to
regulate from the beginning the baby's
habits regarding sleep and all other mat-
ters, It is the only way to have a happy,
healthy baby. He should be put to bed
at the same hour every night, and have
his morning and afternoon nap at the
same time every day. Babies quickly
learn to recognize the preparations for
their comfort, and they should always be
made in the same rotation of food, exer-
cise and bed.
The mother's greatest care is to
guard against anything happening in
the hours of wakefulness which may
interfere with the hours of sleep. The
baby should never be subjected to such
excitement as attends the ride to Ban-
bury Cross. It can better be replaced
by some soothing lullaby. Overfeeding
as well as underfeeding, is a frequent
cause of restlessness, Cleanliness,
comfortable diapers and a proper de-
gree of warmth are essential. It is a
mistake to suppose that the baby's
sleep in the daytime will interfere with
his sleep at night. Wakefulness at
night is usually the result of over-
fatigue, and not of too much sleep dur-
ing the day.

The baby should enjoy the freedom.
of his own little cot, and should never
sleep in his mother's arms. It is a
physical imposeibility her a -baby to
breathe properly when held close to the
bosom, it interferewith the expansion
of the lungs, and the close proximity of
the mother deprives the baby of his
necessary share of oxygen. He is also
compelled to inhale the carbolic acid gas
exhaled by the mother.
Before putting the baby to bed he
should have his hands, face, chest, "and
egs bathed with warm water and be
"changed" and made generally com-
fortable. If the baby is breast fed, be
should be nursed before being put in his
cot. If bottle fed he should be put in
bed with the bottle.
