Childhood ailments come quickly and means should always be at hand to prbmptly fight them. Baby's Own Tablets are the ideal home remedy. They regulate the bowels; sweeten the stomach; ban- sh constipation and indtgestiou; break up colds and simple fevers—in fact they relieve all the minor ills of little ones. Concerning them Mrs. Noise Cadotte, Makamik, Quebec., writes; "Baby's Own Tablets are the best remedy in the world for little ones. My baby suffered terribly from indigestion and vomitig, but the Tablets soon set..her right and now she is in perfect health." The Tab- lets are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams'. Medicine Co., Brock- ville, Ontario.

Front the earliest period of ituman history till almost the close of the eighteenth century, linen :manufacture was one of the most ex- tensive and widely disseminated of ;the domestic industries of Muropean 1 countries. It was most largely de- veloped in Russia, .Austria,rtfikr- tTrifeninoli Y4glaeni, !the North of Ireland and through - 11011t Ecotland. In the latter part Of the eighteenth century the inven. ition of cotton spinning machinery igave the linen weaving industry :fatal bow. Domestic spinning and eveaving began to ehriek and with It hand loon weaving. In 1Sib. at Darlington, England. * machine was invented, wide/ Atter ,maity improvements and modifies: iitleris has heeethe the perfect aye Item of Machinery with which at the urnished. The discovery of a pro- cess for the mechanical spinning of linen yarn for weaving into cloth by power loom was much slower than in the corresponding case of cotton. There are two branches In the modern manufacture, spinning and weaving, to which /nay be added bleaching and various finishing pro- cesses. The flax fibre is received in bundles from the scutch mills and after having been classed into vari- ous grades according to the quality of the material, is labelled and placed in store ready for the flax raill. When the manufacture of linen in Canada was successfully started, the idea was to purchase yarns from the Continental and Irish sainting mills, who were being supplied with Rus- sian flax, at a price much below that for which flax meld be grown in Canada. As most of the linen manufactureos in Ireland were weal". erg only, buying their yarns from spinners, It was thought quite pos. ibl and fungible that the same reetIod meld be employed with mac - tees le Canada, and prior to the war, the linen business depended entirely their plants in operation. In the year 1913, it is estimated that Russia produced about 400,000 tons of flax, and other European countries, including Great Britain and Ireland, 100,000 tone. With the complete collapse of Russia in 1918, it became evident that if the linen business was to be continued in Canada, it would be necessary to establish a spinning plant here, to spin the Canadian grown flax, which with the improved methods of cultivation, were proven equal to or better than the Russian flax, pp which the industry had re- lied plevious to the war. A modern flax spinning plant, which would complete the chain of linen manufac- turers • and make the business a purely Canadian one has been !m- etalled at Guelph and is now in. full running order. This plant has been equipped with the latent modern riry and wet spinning systems.

The first in Ontario was founded in 1790, by Lleut.-Governor' Simcoe. The first cantilever bridge in Canada was built over the Niagara River, near the Falls. It was opened for traffic on December 20, 1883. , The first colonial see of the Church of England was that of Nova Scotia, es- tablished in 1787. The firs( Bishop was the RC: Revd, Dr. Charles Inglis, who had jurisdiction over all British North America. The first ordination of a Presbyterian 'minister in,Canada took place le Hali- fax, N. S., on July 3, 17.70. The can- didate was ordained as pastor of the Presbyterian congregation of Lunen - burg. His name was 5, R, Ithrsingoe, and his congregation was a lituguenot colony. The first conference among the Overseas Dominions of the British Em- pire was held in Ottawa, opening on June 28, 1894. The representatives of Canada were the late Sir Adolphe Caron, M. P., the late Sir Sanford Flem- ing, the distinguished engineer, and Sir George Foster, now Minister of Trade and Commerce. The first mention of a copper mine in Canada was made by the historian Lesearbot, who was at Port Royal, Nova Scotia, with Champlain. Lescarbot wrote In August, 1609, that he had met a man, Prevost, at isle Perce, Gaspe, who claimed that he had just come from a copper mine. The first dockyard in Canada was es- tablished at Halifax in 1758. The date on the gate is 1770, which refers to the year in which the wall around the yard was built. The first lot of horses purchased in Canada by the British Government as cavalry remounts was shipped in Sep- tember, 1886. The first horses brought to any part of Canada were those left on Sable Is- land, off the coast of Nova Scotia, by the Portuguese in 1539. Horses were taken to Acadia, Nova Scotia, by the French, In 1613. ALMOST HELPLESS ,. FROM ST. VITUS DANCE The Muscles of the Hands, Face and Body Affected. St. Vitus dance is a disease of the nerves brought oii by a Morbid con- dition of the blood. It is common with children, and attacks girls more frequently than boys. Irritability is frequently one of the first signs not- ed. The child frets, is quarrelsome and does not sleep well. The Jerky move- ments that characterize the disease come a little later, The limbs and sometimes the whole body jerks spasmodically, and in severe cases the power of speech is affected. Such a child should not be allowed to study, but should be kept quiet, giv- en a nutritious diet, remain out of doors as much as possible. Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills will help the blood restore the shattered merves. The value of these pills in cases of this kind is shown by the folloivinv state- meut from Mrs. Frank Reynolds, Windsor, N. S., who says: "When .a young girl 1 suffered very severely from St. Vitus dance, I could not keep still for a moment, 111 tried to handle dishes I broke them, and could not safely attempt to hold a thing in my hands.

The lady guests think the groom looks flushed because he is nervous, but his male friends know it is because of his last minute clash fromthe nearest Turkish bath. Marriage is a serious step. It is much more serious if taken at a jump. According to a prominent cobbler the practice of throwing old shoes at apwix married couples is dying.out, In giving wedding preSents, al- ways chose something of which the bride will not receive more than five or ten. Otherwise, your gift is liable to compare unfavorably with others of the same kind, The actual marriage ceremony is a sobering experience, which is a good thing, as often as not, for the groom.

If these plants are then properly hardened off, they should be ready to transplant into the field by the 8th to 10th of May. The soil for early cabbage should be a warm, sandy loam in a good state of cultivation. The plants are generally ' set 30 inches between the rows and 18 inches in the row. They are given carefulingeasscounItivation during the grow - The late crop is generally started about the 15th of May in an open seed -bed or eold frame. The rows in the seed-b6'd are 4-8 inches apart, the seed being settttereclaquite thickly in the row. Where the cabbage mag- got is troublesome It will be neces- sary to grow the plants under cheese - crab frames. These plants should be ready to set in the field from June 15th to July 1st. When we are set- ting plants whith have little soil on their roots, as.ciften happens in the late crop, we carry the plants to be set out in a pail which is partly filled with a batter made of cow manure, loam and water. This gives some moisture to the plant and a cer- tain amounkof readily available food. The plants are set 24 inches in the row and 20 inches between the row. As this crop does best under cool conditions, it should, if possible, be put in the moister part of the gar- den. Both crops must have sufficient moisture if theX are to grow quickly. Nitrate of soda may be used to ad- vantage around the plants at the rate of 3.50-200 pounds per acre' or what could be put on,a ten-centpiece to each plant. On account of the solu- bility of nitrate of soda in water, bet- ter results are obtained by making two applications of 75-100 pounds, first when the plants are beginning to grow after transplanting, and, secondly, when the head is beginning to forte. Cabbages are generally out off so as to leave 3 or 4 of the outer leaves to protect the head. This should bo done before too severe freezing wea- tkr inures the cabbage, They will twevt6rAelyf epl0sobz 711,11 if i h ey haTe. boon f3 If nothing suitable can be found for a wedding present,,it is always in good taste to send a fat cheque. No bride ever complained yet of getting too m a ny. The bride's friends give showers for her, and the groom's friends seldom leave him dry, either.

The tem- perature should be held at about 34 deg. F. and provision made for air circulation so that no moisture col- lect on walls or ceilings. Where one is storing in cellars, the cabbages are best placed on slatted shelves made one above the other about 2 feet apa.rt, The cabbage may be laid on these, one or two layers deep. Where there is no good cellar storage, a pit may be made outside in a place which le well drained. The ground is covered with a layer of straw and the cab- bage placed on this face down in lay - era of first five cabbages side by side, four on top of this, then three, then two, and finally one, thus forming an "A" shape. Tuck in the outer leaves of the first layer under the heads. The outer leaves of each layer are allowed to hang over the layer below to form a roof. The pile is then cov- ered with six inches of straw and about six inches of soil, Every 10 or 15 feet a the should be placed in the pile to come up through the soil and straw, thus forming a ventilator. All plants give off moisture, and unless we had an opening for it to escape the cabbage would soon begin to rot. If severe weather conies, these can be stuffed with straw and opened again when the weather moderates. The covering of the pit should also be increased by using strawy =mire as the weather becomes more severe. Cabbage can be taken from the pit on warm days, Cabbages which are not quite fully grown may be dug with the mots attached, These can then make a arab; amount of ppyt1.1.
