Uee Discretion!
For some weeks our Church bell has
been on strike, or rather ;sot on strike,.
In other words, as a result of its man-
ipulation by a too athletic ringer, it
has refused to sound its usual bid-
ding to public worship. On Supday
two young daredevils undertcok to put
it to rights in time for the visit of a
celebrity. They placed a ladder on the
vestry roof, climbed .up over an icy
eaves -trough, and hvnig • precariously
to a convenient chimney. Then they
pulled the long ladder up after them
and with its help managed to negotiate
the steep roof of the church and get
astride the root -tree, Along this they
gradually worked their way astraddle
and clambered up into the belfry, and
soon had the refractory apparatus in
order again and making marry music,
Needless to say, the daring amateur
steeplejacks were Boy Scouts, Their
performance was witnessed by a some-
what apprehensive company of spec-
tators, among whom, it may be said,
their respective mothers were not. If
they had been they might have emu -

to know one's self, to study human

selves, we rpe:'illy discover that most
of aur troubles, defeats and sufferings.
are not due, as we are wont to as-
sume, to i11 fortune or to tate malice of
others, but to avoidable errors. We
are the abler makers of our own ills,
by failure to reflect, by yielding to our
oppetitos, impulses, inclinations and
undisciplined sentiments, by neglect-
ing to guide bur actions by our reason.
We thus tall into the error of despis-
ing simplicity, of overestimating the
value of possessions, of attaching un-
due weight to externals end s4ipear-
anCCs, -,
„The remedy is obvious, though not
always .easy of appreciation. It is to
conquer by an effort of the reason, of
the will, these exigent Inclinations and
appetites of ours. Montaigne, repeat-

this. Hia su00055 in teaching the art

BROKEN IN HEALTH
After An Attack of Influenza --
Health Now Restored.
"I am writing to tell you what Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills have done for
me," says Mrs, J, H. Outten, Firdale,
Man. "A few years ago I was 1n a bad-
ly rundowncconditton, so much se that
I was subject to fainting spells which
wouldleave me in such a condition
that'll could hardly go about. Then I
was stricken with influenza, which was
epidemic at that time, and this still
further weakened me, and throughout
the whole winter I remained in this
condition. I was constantly taking
doctor's medicine, but as it . did not
seem to help me, my mother advised
me to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and
I got a couple of boxes to start on.
When these were done I seemed to
feel an Improvement and I got a fur-
ther supply to continue the treatment.
I took in all about a dozen boxes, and
by that time I was in the best of
health and had gained in weight, My
faith in Dr, Williams' Pink Pills Is
now unbounded, and I keep a supply
on hand and take them occasionally if
I am not feeling quite well. I. often
recommend them to others, and cannot
praise them enough for restoring my
health."
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are useful
in all cases where the blood is thin
and watery as their mission is to build
up and purify the blood. That le why
they give new strength and vigor atter
an attack of influenza, and it is also
the reason why they are beneficial in
nervous disorders, neuralgia, rheu-
matism and that condition generally
described as all run down."
You can get the pills from your

I have been noisy over little joys,
Noisy as English sparrows in their
play,
And querulous and fretful at small
griefs,
And aches that spoiled my dee;
But I have known a groat exultant joy,
And suddenly—I grew so very still—
That I was like the mirrored lake at
night,
Or a high tower on a hill,
And I have known—have known a
hurt so deep—
That quietly—without a moan or cry,
I have stood still --alert ,tts a white
star—
And watched ray own serf ate.

A. Simple PrQblem
For this. puzzle, two lead pen,
ells, a playing card and a halt
dollar aro used. The playing card
Is placed on the unsharpened end.
Of one pt the pencils. Oa the card,
directly over the end 01 the pencil,
the half dollar is placed. The
problem is to remove the playing
card without removing the cote.
The first part of the trick le to
place the coin so that it will stay
in position after the card is re-
moved, That is not very dlfncult.
To remove the card, strike the
edge ot the card with the other
pencil so that It will Ey away, If
the card is struck a straigbt blow,
it will slip from under the coin
and the trick will be accomplished.
