Not infrequently wo hear elf lnidldle-+aged men and women 'col-. • Lapsing and dying on account of tho heat, especially if there is notch hum- idity with .tihp ..'high tenepererture, :These 'eae'ea nearly always• occurring on the etroet show the need of pre- eauti'ans on th'e part of the individual. fah guwding himself or herself from excessive and prolonged' exposer° to the stn's rays. A. somewhat common practice end 'abad practice is for mon •on holiday to go through the heat of the day without any heard covering in order to encourage the growth of the hair, Sun stroke sometimes oc- curs, as a result, and in sono cases leas proved fatal. Living an apartment houses during the hot weather where no great amount of through draft Is available, is a frequent 'rause of heat exhaustion, espociall'ly among these of middle life and old age. Arrange - meets should be made if possible to avoid stuffy apartments during the summer months, but the present' hone. ing shortage makes it difficult for some oity dwellers to change their abode during the hot weather and the results are 'particularly debilitating, In case of chi•idren, it is a practical inepossilbility to keep them well in summer if 'cooped up in alpartmohts or tenements. Babies must be given epeeial attention, and mothers living in crowded or closely built up quar- ters ehculd keep their infants in rooms on the ground floor, that sue Shoaled and ventilated.

Indoor workers should have win- dows and cidors open to create a draft, and the' light s'heald be suppress'ed, so ars not to let in the full glare of the ,8011. The clothing worn indoorsmust he loosely woven, and of either cotton or eilk. Everybody should. try to ewok9 beery and excitement as those only intensify the 'heat, but healthful exercise i•s beneficial even in hot wea- ther. It. is officially noted that men in the tropics who do strenuous work and, play, enjoy better health than the ladies resident there who take prac- tically no exercise, Bathe daily and take 41 sponge bath at night 'before retiring, so 0,s to 'induce sleep. Dur- ing hot weather keep 'occupied and do not discuss the weather co'nstantby. It only :aggravates the .discomfort and tends to make others ,irrita'b'le as well as oneself.

Grant Slave and Lac la Riche are the two biggest pro- ducers, Potted Voices. Although Madame Patti, the great soprano, had pawed her best when the gramceneno came into being, yet re• cords of her matchless voice are in existence, and were recently used to domoestrate the art of the great sing- er. • Many young people who aro in- terested in music, or sing themselves, ask whether Sims Reeves sang better than Thomas Burke, if Jenny Lind sang as well as Tottrazilhi, or whether Madame Clara Butt has as pure a con• trait° voice as Antoinette Sterling or Maclaine Patti. Old concert -goers of- ten stick up for their early loves, but compare:on, is impossible, for then' voices are long silent, and new ones (hold the field. But the gramophone has ended that phase. The new singers to Cotyle can be compared vocally with the singers at present holding the field. The gramophone has got all the great sing- ers "in pickle," and everybody will bo able in the future, even long after they have ps,ssed away, to taste thole beautiful quality. Yet what would we not give to be •able to put Jenny Lind or Jaseph Mass or. Madame Patti 011 the gramophone, and listen, as our fathers end•nlcth'ers did, to their entrancing scngs? What would "Sly Pretty Jane," sung by Sims Reeves, be valued at to -clay, or "Calle'r Herrin'," sung by Antoinette Sterling, anti sung as ,.110 alone could sing it? Why Dogs Bark. It is a omlious fact that dogs bark only when they are in association with man. The dog in a ,state of mituro merely growls, howls, or whines. Possibly the act of barking is a dog's attempt at speech: 1t would cer- tainly seem litre it sometimes; as, for instanoo, when a pet dog sees you car- rying food, he will bark as bis way of asking for some. Another dog, which is in the habit of going to bed at sundown, will bark to tell you leo is ready when the time coulee. It is also 011110us that, although the dog is so much the friend of man, his Mame le used in many expren41ons'of. abuse and reproach. Such phrases probably ameso in. the East, where dogs are considered of very little he - want. Havey ioU ii fie ""'cti. how many of your nee hbseirs bj have ehanfged.

With Different Meanings. 'Ivory ship is expected, by interna- tional law, to show her u•atio•nal colors, and all the principal merchant ships, passenger and 'cargo, fly a 110080 flag as well, to show who the owners are. Some of these !lags are as well-known as ,the Union Jack, or the Trlcolor— flags' lice those of the Cunard Lino, the Compagnie Gerenale. Trans -Allan tique, and the Navigaziono Generale Italiana, for example, But there are huudred's of others as well, and all of them convey a meaning to the sea- farer. The really chatty flags are the little oddly -patterned equates and triangles that are hoisted at the p0100rm in mune. The Navy has fifty-nine of these, the first twenty-six of which re- present tiro alphabet, the remainder being numbers, and special flags such as "Yes," "No," "Prepare'," "?" and so on. The international code is shorter, and different. There are only the twenty-six lettons. of the alphabet and ono over to nerve as e11• answering 1)ell- dnnt- h'Iast readers of nautical stories have beard of the Blue Peter, but few r0, cognize it 1v11011 they see- it hoisted. It is 0 blue flag with a white spuare Jn the centre, and stands for the letter P in the alphabet, Many who think they know mistake the white flag. with a blue square in the centre tot' the Blue Peter. It is, in point of fact, the' let - tet• S, and tate signal "I require a pilot" The Blue Peter in the Navy, how - over, 108 quite a .different meaning. It is the numerical sign for "zero," while 111x' international pilot flag in the Navy is not S at all, but V. Another cause of oonfuslon to the landsman is the quarantine flag, The "Q" flag, a yellow square, is used for this in the international code, and many people think it means that there Is ,plague on board. It does not. The flag for that is,L, made of equal yel- low and black Squares, the first yel- low w'''are being in the top corner near the staff, Rubbing It In, Signalling with flags, was not 111ltelh practised in the merchant service be- fore tho war, and nlorsiug with s,enla- phore or Ilasliing lamp was little known. It is recorded of a famous merchant skipper that on one occa- sion, fancying Ills trained 84911011er could teach the Navy a thing or two, he undertook to communicate with 'a passing 1111811 -o' -war. The mercantile Odgnaller painfully spelt out his ahe,3e- age, The man -o' -war, 0041011 more rapidly, winiced cart its reply , The merchant Jack macre "I,M.T "— please repeat"—time and again ns 110 tried to read the winking clots and dashes. At last the signaller in the nlau-o'- war with cruel irony ,"pelt out very slowly and distinctly, "Do you speak i]nglish?" And thatt" a ship flying 1110 blue ensign of a 130tisti auxiliary eruieer! The use of convoys during the sub- marine campaign sharpened the need for good s'lgualling in the merchant elites, and they became quite export in reading, against, the difficult back- groend of the elsy, the me'anin'gs of the jumbled 001015, which salt', "Altar course two points to starboard," Ad- miral intends, to proceed at 15 knots," "Altar course i'hr svccessloe N. 56 E.;" and so ofl, Flag signals in the Navy are mainly concerned with manoeuvring; general conversation is carried on by Means of semaphore er fla lamp, The ailment or talking that is done in a fleet, in twenty -tour hours at sea is enormous. Few people probably realized, be- fore the official Jutland papers' were issued', that from start to 11dish more than 3,500 signals were exchanged be- tween BriltiSll' ships 111 conneotloal with the battle. Wit in War -time, Some -of 1115111 were quite hulno'rorts.

The story is told how Gilbertson made a canoe trip up the river some sixty years ago, and while malting camp for the night,' came across a large body of gold -bearing ore. Not knowing what it was be took home a large piece to use as a door weight. Sometime later a geologist visiting Gilbertson identified the ore, and, a matt rush to stake claims along the Wa+psh° River ensued. Gilbertson refused to tell Where he found the ore. Later he became insane and died with- out revealing the secret. This season e. systematic search is being made.

The round trip takes twelve days, British Pearl Fisheries. Coming down the Highland railway recently, where the line runs along- stde the Tay, the writer saw two men in a boat, one of whom was leaning over the side, 'holding 0 sort of box in the water. A friend who was with him explain- ed that the men were pearl fishing. The box was a "water glass" used for eliminating the surface r'ippl'e, and 430 examining the bottom of the river, When a mussel is seen, the Renee man pushes down a length of stiff wire, thrusting It between the open shells of the fish. These close at once on the wire, and so the creature is drawn to the surface. These mussels are of considerable size, and quite a fair proportion of them hold pearls, though only a few of these are sufficiently well shaped or lustrous to be valuable. Yet the mere fact that pearl fishing still gees on in' a good many Scottish and Irish rivers proves that it must be worth while. The principal Scottish rivers for pearl mussels are tate Doe, Spey, 1)00, and Eslr, while another centre of pearl fishery is in Ulster, in the Foyle and its- trihutarle8. Pearl fishing goes on regularly in all these streams, and the proceeds of the fishing aro void to local jewellers. A jeweller at Strabane gave $40 for a pearl which was found in a sn1a11 stream nater the town, and plenty of pearls worth five to tea dollars each are got every „eas15. Most of these fresh -water pearls are white, but now and then very beautiful pink 04100 are cbtained. No special 01111 is required in the fishing, and amateurs and holi- day -cookers have almost se good a cihance of success as 111e' professional flshormeu, These pearls are accumulated around a nucleus 10nsi8Wng of the dead larva of the alstenla, ar fluke, True "full-grown fluke inhabits the bodies of the cider duck or black clack, but the pearl 111110501 a0te as host to the young 1n a. certatu stage of their 00velcpment, - CHOLERA INFANTUM Cholera infant= is one of the fatal ailments of childa•ood.

Boy Scout and Girl Guide Movements As World Leaven. In the feverish hurly-burly of mod- ern life, 1u the strife and clash of mon and nations, there is. a refreshing unity 'of purpose and achievement in the twin fraternities which owe thotr existence bo the enthusiasm and fore- sight of the defender et Mateking, says the Landon Times, writing edi- torially of the tar-Iluug Girl Guido and Boy Scout movements, Service in place of self-interest, giving instead of grasping, doing rather than, talking, are the guiding principles. Prem. an organizati(1n, as Lady Baden-Powell Natty claims' for the branch of which site is Chief Guide, and Princess' Mary the president, they have grown into a movement, with an active power for good. They have expanded beyond the hounds of the Empire. Like Puck, they have put a girdle round the earth, Approximately three-quarters of the total number of Boy Stouts in the world' (something over a million), and a third of its total 320,000 Girl Guides (six times as many ae there were in 1912), live in foreign coun- tries. Each year the movement slpreads-•and -bra totals increase, more boys and girls pass into the companies and troops, and out of them into' the fuller life of adult citizenship, in a larger number of countries. A. third of the Boy Scouts wire came GYM' Tram Soutlh Africa to last year's Jamboree in London were Dutch. In India, from which Sir Ropert and Lady Baden-Powell have recently returned, there are in the eight provinces' thous- ands of Scouts and Guides', sone of them English, some of them of nixed English and Indian parentage, and sane Indian. The Chief Scout and Chief Guido went out on the levita- tion of Lord Chelmsford, the Viceroy, with the object of consolidating the movement on the original lines of a unified organization. As the result of their visit s'ame 20,000 Indian Boy Scouts, who had been earolle(1 inde- pendently of the parent organization, and a further assoolation of 16,000 Scouts and Guides enrolled by Mrs. Besant, agreed, with "iude,acribable enthusiasm," to come into the. world brotherhood. These aro but two in- stances out of many of the univer- sality of the spell exercised by the principles of Scouting. • British by origin, pan -British by adoption, they have in them something that appeals to the boys and gil'1e cf all nations, and binds them together in a common fraternity that can rise to a plane above the ordinary distinctions at race. With the passing of youth and its enthusiasms, the inspiration of the movement and its ideals must, in some cases, inevitably decay. 13ut if, in the majority, they eau'viv0, then it is mere- ly visionary to hope taut, in each come try where they thrive, they may in- sensibly leaven the lump and become the germ of 0 real and abiding League of Nations.
