Such restful hymns as,. "Breathe On Me, Breath of God," and 'As Pants the Hart for 'Cooling Streams' are among those that are new to the book. It is especially rich in" sacre- mental hymns," and the evangelistic note is sounded by hymns in the "Gos- pel Call" section. One section is de- voted to "Missions," which contains sone new additions, including the in- spiring song, "Fling Out tine Banner(" American Authors Included. From ;t literary point of view the book is Iia improvement upon the old, so far as modern literature is concerned. Justice has been done to American literature, by the in- troduction of hymns of Emerson, Whittier, Longfellow, Holmes and Byrant. Modern music is represented by such bright tunes as that by Sulli- van, set to John Ellerton's hymn, "Welcome, Happy Morning"; also by • Barnby's setting of ,"When Morning Gilds the Skies," and several of Stainer's piece, A new and very effective setting of, "For All the Saints Who from Their Labors Rest." is in- troduced. This is by Dr. Vaughan Williams; it is said to have been very popular in England during the war. Choice of, Tunes. Special attention has been given to. the choice of tunes; many of the hymns are provided with alternate settings suited to the exigencies of worship. The book contains a fine selection of Welsh hymn tunes, chosen ' for their great power of devotional ex- pression, so, characteristic of Welsh music. The. tune, "Caersalem" (Jer- usalem) is a great Welsh favorite; the Welsh miners are often heard singing it underground.

A sad death was revealed, when the body of Mr. Patrick McGrath was found in the bush on the farm of Mr. John Forest, about a mile south of Seaforth, with a bottle of carbolic acid beside it. Mr. McGrath had left his home with the intention of porches- ing some stock, and his absence did not cause any uneasiness. About a year ago deceased sold his farm in Tuckersmith, and moved to Egtnond- ville to reside. A short time ago he Ca.n.aolan THE CLINTON NEW ERA, bought biteic his farm, having to p;ly a conisderehly adv;tced prlei for it, and altJiough he was in prosperous ch'ctun- stantes, this foal Coupled with 'ill healtjt_'wotried him. to such an extent Hutt his mind became unbalanced.

P, Caulford) When the car owner finally comes to a decision, that the time has arrived to jack up his car and,laave it idle for the cold winter months (If he does), he is well advised to have the battery taken out ;titd'placed in tite eine of a 0001 - Potent battery service station, While it isn't. absolutely necessary that mortorisi should be thoroughly acquainted with the meaning of such technical terms as "electrode" "grids," "electrolyte," etc., still it is as unech to his own 'inerests to iinderstand, as far as possible, in what way be may be able to increase the efficiency and extend the life of his storage battery, as it Is to acquire understanding of any other part of his car's mechanism, The chief reason for not leasing the battery to look after itself during' the winter months, is that the plates in the battery deteriote when standing idle, owing tb sulphation. The bat- tery also slowly, becomes in a dis- charged condition and if exposed to cold temperatures will readily freeze, and that spells absolute ruin so far as the battery is concerned, Two dis- tinct methods are employed in storing batteries. That known as wet storage is only applicable to batteries which are. less than six months old, or which have been relnsulated with new separ- ators inside that period. These bat- teries receive a periodical freshening charge,which prevents sulphation and keeps the battery in an active condi- tion. The other method is called dry stor- age And applies to all batteries which have been in service over six months. These batteries receive an initial charge at a very low rate until they are fully charged, the elements are then remov- ed from the battery, and the wood se- parators and the electrolyte or "acid" are discarded. The elements, or "plates" are examined to make sure to owners of storage batteries if the Specific gravity- reading is L140 the Battery is completely discharged and will freeze at 20 degrees above zero Reading 1.180 will freeze at zero Reading 1.215 will freeze 20 below zero Reading 1.275 it will not freeze.

' Shorter runs are more in favor, 'and in many cases the car lies idle for varying periods, and the long nights impose •t burden with the "increased use of the lights, In wanner weather evaporation of the .liquid in a battery and its replenishment by adding pure distilled water is about all the attention: the car owner requires to give the bat- tery, With the cooler weather, ,sul- phation of the plates in a battery is the chief ill to which batteries are a prey. The preventive is to keep' the battery charged. Freezing Points. Batteries will not freeze if kept fully charged. According to the amount of discharge, the strength of the electro- lyte willtdecrease until it approaches the density of water which freezes at 32 degrees Fahrenheit. During dis- charge sulphate is taken up by the plates from rho 'electrolyte, hnd con- sequently, as the specific gravity falls, there is greater risk of freezing. S.

Seruton, RAW FURS WANTED INFLUENZA RIS LATER UANGEBN, Particular Care Is Needed When Patient Is Convalescent, Says Expert, The influenza convalescent who has apparently recovered from the disease and is yet in a strangely weak and de- pressed condition should be the object of particuler care, according to Dr. Louis I. Harris, director of: the Bureau of Preventable Diseases of the New York Health De.parltment. in the opinion of Dr. Harris the after care of the influenza patient is most im- portant. The co-operation of the pat- ient, coupled with the willingness to see that the weakness and depression are a part of the illness, though com- ing after the disease itself has spent its force, is a big factor in effectng a complete return to full health. On the other hand, the determinaton to ignore this debilated condition and to fight against it, will, Dr. Harris says, frequently bring serious consequences upon the patient. After EffectsBas "The subject of the after effects of influenza," said Dr. Harris, "is one of particular Interest to the scientist at the present time: 'First; and perhaps the most mo- mentous condition to be considered is the striking depression, mental, nerv- ous, and physical, complained' of by most patients.. Those attacked . by the disease with moderate severity are, al- most afflicted with this de - .pression, which should be recognized and dealt with. Those who have had amid cases of the epidemic are little affected by depression, and their quick return to health and strength gives,, rise to the belief that influenzR is trivial. On the contrary, influenza in its after effects is anything but triv- ial, and calls for the application of rules of 0001n10n sense and sanitation which are the fruit of years of ex- perience. "Tonic treatment, well chosen diet, and great care in not becoming over- tired or allowing the body to be chilled are necessary. Eggs may be eaten, but not more than two a day, for the average adult. Of course, it must be remembered - that in many cases this disease, tends to direct its force against the kidneys, and therefore we instruct patients to avoid eating a great amount of meat, eggs, or beef extracts. Eggs, soft boiled, poached, orbeaten, raw, are advisable in lim- ited number. The raw eggs should always be well agitated before taking. When Good Food Is Bad. "With milk and eggs as a founnda- tioat the patient should eat good nour- ishing food, including neat, fish, and vegetables, amply prepared. Frying, for instance; is out of the question. Good food prepared in, an unassimil- able manner becoiues bad food;; espe- cially is this to be noted in cases of convalescence' from influenza, for the disease often manifests itself in vomiting, andin intestinal and gas- tric disturbances, .and it is important not to. weaken the digestive function by the eating ofpoorly prepared food, or. even the best 'of food in all -advised quantities. The quantitative distribu- tion of foodstuffs should be so act - lusted asnot to overtax the Stomachs but the patient should eitt generously and frequently, As a tonic to build up the blood and stimulate the shattered nerves, Dr, Williams' Pink Pills are unsurpassed.
