She is now at San Remo, She is said to have had no art education. but that, 1 take it, only means art tui- tion.

STANDING`STILk- Ifl AIR. , N Alr-Anchera4e Problem Awaits Solu- tion by Avigtlon Englneers. Having couquered time and space, the Columbuses of the air must soon ,begin looking around for new 'melds to master. It ;1s worth 'pointing out, however,that before starting 011 a' grand tour of the planetary system the air pioneers might finish the job •of. malting themselves at 110me in, their new field, This cannot come about until we are able to go up to a given place in the air and stay there until we are ready to come down—or rnove. on to sone other place'in the higher atmosphere. Fleretofore aviation has meant trav- el through the air from one place on earth to another place on earth, To be able to do that is a first-class achievement;., but it leaves a lot to be desired, as a little reflection should show. We can never be really at home in the air until we can staud still in it. The air -anchorage problem. must be solved. Of course we have captive balloons, but they have served merely to hold our imaginations captive. When we have become a°little more familiar with air travel it will be in- creasingly, annoying either to keep moving at a terrific clip or to have to remain tied to the earthto stay in a given air 'location. A flying machine used by a scientist has just been wrecked after having set out to watch. a recenteelipse from the higher altitudes, This illustrates the need and one of the possibilities of re - maining stationary in the ether, In England they • are seriously discuss- ing the creation of aerial "spas" to provide for treatment of tuberculosis patients. The plan is -to have largo balloons carry the afflicted up to the most desirable andbeneficial altitude and anolterthem there. The 'future; however, slrould greatly lenpt:01re-upon it, The factthat health le to be found at high altitudes is a greet incentive to - experimentation -along this lino, But ordinary comfort, estheticsand human preferences may yet lead us into trying out all possible, altitudes in tlhe.Vast wastes of atmosphere in search of new and pleasurable sensa- tions Merely to get above the mos- quito line would satisfy most of us tier- ing dog clays, but that is because we are slaves of our, accustomed environ- ments. We may yet be able to call any old place In the air by the name of hone if we can stay in one aei°ial place' long enough to get acclimated and find rents and neighbors tolerable if,not entirely satisfactory,' ' A very curious net is mede by !the tailor bird of India, a tiny yellow• creature. To -escape snakes and soon - keys this third takes a dead leaf, flies up into a tree, and with a fibre for a thread and its bill for a needle eews the leaf to a green one hanging from the tree. The 'sides are sewn up, an opening to the nest thus formed being left at the top. The leaf, apparently hanging from a twig, would never be taken for a nest.

THREE EPOCHS IN ATLANTIC PASSAGE BY SAILING VESSEL, BY 'STEAM: SHIP AND BY DIRIGIBLE. The Recent Marvellous Voyage of the' R-34 Calls to Mind baring Trips of the Old Days. Those who see significance in names may be interested in comparing the names of the three vessels which have I niarlced epochs 10 transatlantic pass- age. Columbus's flag ship was the Santa. Maria, a name suggestive of the religious fervor of the man and of the spirit, of those days. The that., steam- ship to make the voyage wholly by en- gine power Was the Sirius, a name suggesting the mingling of science and romance winiclt 'was eonthtant in the world at that time. And Captain Scott's aerial craft is the 11-34, the very climax of bald utilitarian imper- sonality. Steamship Competition. In one respect this latest flight dif• fere from the others. It was achieved in competition, while the others were not, They were not racing with any- body else. But competition soon arose among the steamships. The first such rivalry was between the Great Western and the Britannia. The for -1 mer was the first steam vessel ever built expressly for transatiautic tnevi- gation7; owned by the Great Western Steamship Cotnpany; 236 feet long, of 1,340 toms; of 800 horse power, and carrying 600 tons of coal. The Briton; nia rita - nia was the first Cunard vessel built for transatlantic traffic; a wooden side-wheeler, 207 feet long, of 1,154 tons gross:' The' Brittania^won the. race on her first .voyage, 'leaving Liverpool on July 4, 1840, and reach- ing Boston in fourteen dayraucl: eight hours, Then the rival company built the Great Britain, the first iron yessel, 322 'feet long, of 3270, tons, and site made the run in twelve days and twelve hours, completely discomfiting the Cunarders, until the latter built the Hibernia, which easily beat the Great Bi•ltalli's'record, ` The most famous of the early c411 - tests • were, However, ' between the Onnarders and the Collins Lino, the latter the first American line ever es, ta1'iished, The four Collins steamers were the Arctic, Pacific, Atlantic end Adriatic, side-wheelers, the first three 280 feet long and of 2,860 tons, and the last ' 345 'feet in leitgtli and of 4,144 toile. ,T{fey habitually beat the Cuinarders be a considerable margin; and teleter 00111besteamer, tile Baffle, in 1851, was the flret 788801 to erose the Atlantic inlose than ten clays, These statistics 00 early steam +My ages seem -very quaint and pltimitivo, though mein still live who remember when they Were the wonder of the World.

Every muscle in the body needs constantly a supply 00 rich, red blood in Proportion to the worts -it does. glut t muscles of the bac] are under a heavy strain and 'have but little rest. When the blood is thine they lack nourish- ment, and the result is a sensation of pain in those muscles. Some people think pain in the back means kidney trouble, :but the best medical authori- ties agree that backache seldom or never has anything to do with the kid- neys. Organic kidney disease may have progressed. to a critical point without developing a pain in the back. This being the•case, pain in the back should always lead.the sufferer to loop to the condition of his blood. It will be found in most cases that the uee of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to build up the blood will stop the sensation of pain in the ill -nourished muscles of the back. How much better it is to try Dr, Williams' Pink Pills for the Woad than to give way to unreasonable alarm about your kidneys. If feu sus- pect your kidneys, any doctor can make tests in ten minutes that will set your fears at rest, ar tell you the worst. But in any event to be per- fectly healthy you Hurst keep the blood 40 good condition, and for this pur- pose no other medicine can equal Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. 'You can get these pills through any dealer in medicine, or by nail, at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2,50 from The Dr. Williams Medicine Co„ Brock- ville, Ont. Army Put Canada on French Map. That business ;men in France are turning their attention to Canada as a soured oY supply more than before the war is emphasized in the informa- tion reachingthe;Canadiart Trade Com- mission. It appears that the partcipa- tion of Canadian troops, many of them with a knowledge of French, has stimulated interest, and has been, so to• speak, an advertising force for Do- minion trade. A typical instance is quoted by the Commissioner General for Canada in France, who gat describ- ing the requirements of a large im- porting house says: --"I sincerely be- lieve that much sentiment exists here in France from the many interviews I have had and continue to have with men of all sorts—business, commer- cial and professional. I believe that the sentiment exists that purchases would be much preferable from Cana- da than from the United States. There is a great deal of love for Canada shown and Canada has become known from the many lines of endeavor un- dertaken by the Canadian Army." We Call it Small Town Stuff. Japanese newspapers divide their news into two classes—"hard" and "soft." • The former, says Prof, F. L. Martin, of the University of Missouri, treats of serious and important events, the later treats of all sorts of "human - Interest" incidents. The third page of the soft�news department Is devoted to trivial, gossipy stories,'of which the following is a sample: "Slime Etsuna'ita, a resident •of Osa- kusa, has separated from her rlsaster, a coal dealer, she has lost a good op- ponent for her noted powers of quar- reling, The neighbors are breathing freely again at theprospect that they need no longer ,hear embarrassing quarrels, whish,have made the• neigh- borhood famous, The reaction• lute been so great that Btsunalca has been downhearted.

The excess of males over females in the Dominion is 437,347, which 1s an excess percentage of 130 males per 1,000 females, the mala population be- ing 3,821,995 and the female 3,384,648. Tho number of females per 1,000 males is 886, the deficiency of females as compared with males being greater In Canada that, probably in any ether country.

"In the old days, family pride and individual ambition ran hand in hand. The son wanted to emulate his father, and the father wanted to see the son malts his way in the world 'on his own.' ' But the change in the times is graphically illustrated in a conversation I ov8rheard recent- ly, 'My son,' said the retired mer- chant, 'when I was your age, instead of idling and smoking cigarettes I w08 laboring twelve hours a day building rail fences.'

Several men had tried to work up this new material, but with- out success, so there it"lay for years, no one seeming to want it, till Mr. Salt came across it and, after a num- ber of trials, in whi0h he modified his wool machinery to suit it, adapting it afresh and overcoming many obstacles, he finally solved the problem by adopt- ing cotton warps, and soon after put on the market a new material, alpaca, a soft; glossy, elegant fabric, which so took the fancy of the public that, in some fifteen years, Mr. Saltamass- ed an enormous fortune, which thus enabled him to carry on the great philanthropical work whichtmade him famous. • TORONTO FAT STOCK SHOW.
