The chief symptoms of cholera are vomiting, and purging occurs either' simultaneously or alternately, and are usually sudden and very violent, and the matter ejected' by the stomach bas a bilious appearance and a nasty bitter taste. On the first symptom appearing' Dr. Fowler's Extract of Wild Strawberry should be taken, and the trouble cured. Mrs. E. Slade, 376 Logan Ave., Toronto, Ont., writes. ."When . I first arrived in Canada, nearly four years ago, my entire family was stricken with cholera, front which the youngest child died. Soon after a friend recommended Dr. Fowler's ]"extract of Wild Strawberry, and acting on this advice I administered it to all who were suffering, with the mest gratifying results'.. Since that first at- tack my children have been subject to stomach troubles, but on the first symptoms I resort to "Dr; Fowler's," and it always brings relief. I have immense faith iii this medicine, and always keep a bottle on hand. .Also I never fail to recommend it to anyone who is similarly tl oubl d." When you ask for "Dr. Fowler's" see that you get it It has been on the market for the past 70 years. There is nothing "just as good." Manufactured by The T. Milburn Co., Limited, Toronto, Ont.

New searchlights that form exceed- ingly difficult targets for an enemy's shots are now used in the European war, having been perfected just before it commenced. Ordinary searchlights are, of course, good marks for au en- emy, though not so good as might be expected. Their use on a battle line has many restrictions because of the aim they afford. The new lights .are designed to have all the power. of the biggest search- lights in the service but to offer a tar- get no larger than a baseball. The re- flectors of these lights are three feet In diameter. but all the light rays are so accurately reflected that tbey can be sent through 0 three inch orifice. Thus the light can be armored against at- tack by small arm tire or quick firing machine guns, leaving open only a three inch aperture. As 0 further protection against shots the reflector glass is composed of many small sections, bouud together by wire netting, which wilt hold the parts to- gether even after being bit. -Saturday Evening Post.

The increase in the price of meat during the last few years, not to men- tion the last few weeks, has set thou- sands of housewives seeking informa- tion as to the relative value of meat as a foodstuff compare with other available commodities. Albumen or nitrogen is to be found in meat, beans and other vegetables. It can be obtained- from meat more easily than from vegetables, This form of nutrition is in greater demand by the growing child or youth than the developed adult. An allowance of two or three ounces of red meat a day, according to the amount of physical exercise, is all that an adult should eat. With this he should have from one to one and a half ounces of fats and five and a 40.4.10,01X and a half ounces of ml as Make the Liver DO its Duty Nine times in ten when the liver h right the stomach and bowels rig CARTER'S LITTLE LIVER PILLS gentlybutlimlycoin- pet a lazy liver to do its duty.

Plaids are picturesque, hence their popularity for the small folk. The larger and gayer designs may be used with plain materials, this combination being one in which these fabrics are particularly featured. Very charming Is the little gown tl` lustrated here. The little maiden who wears it looks like a veritable Scotch lassie. The model is of Scotch plaid worsted, with plaited skirt and long waist cut on the bias of material.

SOY WITH A PAIR OJT RABBITS.. kinds. A shed with a yard or a medi- um sized fenced run, with boxes for rabbits with young, will do very well. When grass is Plentiful little other food is required. The standard rood al other times is crushed oats, bay and greens. Turnips, beets, spinach and cabbage are excellent for greens. but cabbage is best. When on winter feed the rabbits should be fed twice a day, one .meal of grain and one of greens,' f-Iay should be kept constantly before them. Peep a piece of rock salt fp their pen and provide an abundance of fresh water. Delicate Wings. Some people think It fun to catch 8 butterfly and hold it prisoner for e few minutes. They think that they have not harmed It because they soon release it. But the butterfly suffers greatly even in this way. On the top of each wing there are rows and rows of little feathers, about two million on each wing. When the butterfly is held in the hand these delicate feathers are bruised and rubbed off and do not grow again. This affects the butterfly the same as pulling our Bair out by its roots hurts us.

Quick Bridge Work. Exactly eleven minutes after a Penn- sylvania train moved over a 720 foot three span steel bridge weighing 7,000,- 000 pounds, which was in a temporary position, another train passed over the bridge, which had been moved side- wise forty-seven feet to its permanent place. Between the breaking of the rails and reconnecting them ten min- utes and seventeen seconds elapsed The new bridge spans the Muskingum river at Tyndall O TRtNCH-PERIStlIPEg: is too useful a peephole into their trenohes for us to damage. Our own periscopes consist of a box of wood 4 inches wide and two feet long,with little squares of looking glass four inches square at either end. When you look into the lower glass you can bee reflected a piece of the landscape in front, and so can get a good, steady look at the country in front of your trench' while keeping your head in Perfect safety under `the parapet, The only drawback is that, the top mirror and the end of the wooden box showing above the parapet, they are liable to be hit by a bullet 'and knocked out of your hands. Thisac- tually happened to a fellow the other day, and he had his face covered with tiny cuts and got some powdered is y In h eye. glass Since the last few days' rain parts of the trenches are over three feet deep in water, and one has to wade through the very cold water to get to the next platoon. We are getting pumps to work, but it is a difficult business. The Germans have a bomb thrower called a "Winysfelminer," which throws a bomb about a couple of hundred yards. Their bombs ex- plode on striking the ground, and consequently any that do net actually fall in the trench explode harmlessly. We, or rather an officer in the corps, have rigged up an iron drain pipe as a gun, which throws hand bombs to that distance. These bombs are fitted with time fuses, and most of them explode in the air about 12 feet above the ground. Consequently they are more likely to do damage to the occu- pants of the trench, as these weapons are not very accurate at the best of times, and it is impossible to make sure of getting within five yards of the object aimed at. Boxes Witit Two Mirrors Are Used To Spy Into Enemy's Positions. British and German methods of employing priscopes and other meth- ods of trench warfare aredescribed by an officer of the Royal Engineers, who, writing to his wife, says: "In the lines the Germans have a very large periscope. As their trenches are only 100 or 150 yards from ours we can see, by looking through field glasses, the face of the German who is using it reflected in the top glass. Yesterday we could distinctly see the face of the observer. He was an offi- cer, clean-shaven, and with a red cap. Unfortunately, his shoulders were not "in the picture," and we couldn't tell his regiment, But we could see him exchanging jokes with someone over his shoulder and laughing and smil- ing. We have orders not to fire at it, and perhaps the Germans are won- dering why we are unable to hit so laraie a mark at so short a range. 7t New Scouting, Game. Here is. a new scouting genie which should prove very popular. it can be', played either between the members of a patrol or the varitelO 'patrols in s troop can play against one another.

For evening wear there are wraps and loose, voluminous coats made of rich fabrics In a variety of styles. Vel- vets, light weight plushes and broad- tails ole particularly desirable for coats of this character. ip the cheaper grades of evening wraps broadcloths and light colored woolens are used to some extent, as well as fur fabrics.

Most of the time there were two shafts playing upon the big brown sausage shaped craft, and they kept Iler in sight when she dropped down near ,the roofs of high build- ings and followed her upward course and her sudden turnings and wind- ings. Aeroplanes fully equipped for fight- ing; are kept in reserve and could be launched like fire englnee on the stroke of the bell if an alarm of an approaching Zeppelin were sent out. til 4-1-1-14 eh3 3-I CARE OF COOKING UTENSILS. The up to date housewife ta- bones all heavy cooking utensils. Those of light aluminium, granite and double plated tin save en- ergy. Tinware may be cleaned with very little trouble by using dry • fiour applied with a piece of newspaper. Pie tins greased with butter will make the bottom crust of pies flaky and prevent them from being soggy. When using a double boiler the. food will cook more quickly if the water in the outer vessel is salted in the proportion of a fourth of a cupful of salt to one quart of water. An oven that is constantly in use requires to be kept scrupu- lously clean. It should not only have the shelves scrubbed out with soda occasionally, but in addition the shelves should be painted with quicklime two or three times a year. In oven • treated in this way never be- comes caked with grease, and • there 'is no unpleasant smell when it is being used. British Officer Tells How the Passive Party Takes It. A British officer gives the following account of his impressions under fire! "There is a good deal of rot talked ' of heroism at present. If it is all true there are many millions of heroes in Europe just now, and I leave that to you. I've found it harder to go straight in life than go under fire. I don't think men find it hard to go un- der fire. First of all, there is a mass suggestion and the tradition of your people to give you a bias to bravery. Then when you are in the thick of it you forget psychology after awhile and get interested in the explosions. "When thoroughly warmed up you care nothing about your own skin - you forget you've got a skin -but yon are very hot about damaging the hides of the ruffians who are the cause of that fiendish noise. .You want to hurt them badly and make them feel infernally sorry. When you do get cold feet is before you've start- ed for a hot place. When you are at the base your imagination is far worse than shrapnel. "Certainly when you do come un- der fire for the first time you feel sure you cannot survive. 'I shall never live through this,' you keep saying to yourself. The noises are abrupt, er- ratic and shockingly violent and the mess made is very nasty, but when you recognize your number is certain- ly up you sort of congeal -you lose recollection of your body and become only a clear and observant point of intelligence, doing your job subcon- sciously but surely, like a man dead in everything but his eyes. When you are out of It you 'come to,' so to speak, and can hardly believe you are still really 1n one piece. Then you find yourself very pleased, smiling all over and shaking a little for a long time afterward.' Trace Airships In Fog. Tests over London proved that searchlights can detect a Zeppelin even in foggy weather. A British airship which has been making experimental flights over London by day and by night for the past fortnight made her appearance at dusk and sailed over the city for several hours. Searchlights were trained from several strategic points, • Mahogany Frames. Small furnishings add so much to the beauty and comfort of a room that they are always especially temptlug to the wise shopper. There are some charming little mirrors set in mahog- any frames and hung from mahogany frames on a little crossbar swung in two uprights. It is just like a big pier glass, only that it stands not more than ten inches high. Children's Storm Capes. There is a new storm cape for ch% dren.
