"Kiting" is a method employed by men who wish to gain time when, they Josue a cheque. These men gen- erally, pay a bill with a cheque on a bank in some other city and when the receiver of the cheque has deposited it in his bank it takes two or three days to get it to the issuer's bank, where It is dishonored.

An extraordinary "bone cave" may be seen in the island of Teneriffe. It is situated near the summit of a lofty sea cliff near Orotava, close to the small plain of Le Paz, where peace was finally made between the conquer- -ing Spaniards and the Guanches, the original inhabitants of the island. Here the Guanches made their last stand, and this cave formed a shelter for the small remnant left of the tribesmen after the Spanish had finish- ed with them. In former times the place had evidently been a burial ground for the Guanches, and when' first discovered a number of mummies were found in it; now, however, only a huge pile of bones remains. Access is obtained by descending a rope through Ia hole dug in the roof, but the orifi anal occupants must have had a d1fR- I cult and dangerous scramble down the ;face of the almost perpendicular cliff to the natural entrance.—Wide World. • GAVE PROOF OF HIS NERVE Journalist in Sunny Venezuela Had It, and It Was a Lucky Possession for Hlm. The Trinidad papers publish a story which tends to prove that romance 'ouch as delights the small boy and leads him away from home is still found in sunny Venezuela. Thomas Herrera, a Caracas publi- cist, committed recently the unpardon- able sin of writing a sarcastic pam- phlet against President Gomez of Vene- zuela. One night the police swooped down on his house and extended to him an invitation to take a free out- ing on the torpedo boat El Rayo, which was waiting for him at La Guay- ra. On board the small craft Herrera found, with very mixed feelings, the man whose presses had printed the pamphlet and a friend guilty of send- ing copies of it through the nails. The torpedo boat steamed toward the of- fing and but for the thought of poral- ble untoward developments the three friends enjoyed the free excursion keenly. Yet the memory of things. which bad in the past befallen undo- isirable journalists in the course of 011ie out'glgs convinced Herrera that he had better look out for accidents. A brilliant conversationalist, he in- :gratlated himself with the officers of PJ( Rayo and quite naturally was ask - led after the noonday meal to take a hand at cards. In the course of the game he dropped a card under the the 'ble, bent down to pick It up and in- stead brought to view. the captain's 'revolver, which he had wrenched from its holster. Three shots rang out and captains lieutenant and first mate roll- ed on the deck wounded. Herrera's friends overpowered the second mate t.nd secured all the guns.

With the opening of the European iti n_i i war 'kiting" became very popular and the bankers of Toronto decided to make it as hard as possible.

Compulsory Military Service Law An nually Suspended In Britain• That a form of conscription was in- troduced intoethe 'United Kingdom` by the ,Ballot Act of 1860, which pro- vides for all males over 5 feet, 2 inch- es, between the ages of eighteen and thirty to enlist if called upon for mai- tary service, will probably surprise many people:' This form of conscrip- tion, however, is held in abeyance by an annual Act of Parliament, with the result that the United Kingdom and the .United States are the only two Powers that do not compel military service. In France liability for service ex-. tends from the age of twenty to forty- eight, no exception, tieing allowed ex- cept for physical disability, although at one time a man with sufficient means could buy himseit off or pay for a substitute. In Germany liability for military service commences at the age of seventeen and ends at the age of forty-five, but actual service begins at twenty. The term of service in the first line or native army is seven years, the next thirteen years being ,9 spent in the first and second ranks c.. ;ah i l d r en C r y of the Landwehr, and finally German FOR FLETCHER'S ,f soldiers pass into the Landsturm, in C A S T O R.1A which they remain until they reach the age of forty-five.

Prairie hens are undoubtedly a most valuable asset to the settlers and with- out them many a time a settler would go supperless to bed. The muscles on the breast are highly developed and four of these birds would easily weigh ten pounds. In roost parts of Alberta they are very plentiful and in 1913 the Government was able to extend the open season for an additional month. Like the English Grouse and Black Cock these birds have their "dancing" grounds. Here they congregate in the early mornings and the males with much clucking and chucking pei;form the most amazing antics in order to display their plumage and attract the eye of the watching female. The males, however, take no part in the hatching or rearing of the young but congregate during the summer months in shady bluffs. The female will fight boldly to de- fend her young, springing up to meet tire swoop of the lazy buzzard hawk or feigning lameness to draw well or ,dog from the tender brood. while sitting on her eggs the fe- male must give out no scent from her body for highly trained bird dogs often fall to locate a sitting bird, During the winter the birds become exceedingly tame and mingle with theefarier's poultry to obtain food. A little handful of wheat scattered on the snow will soon make them be- come tame enough to stand many "shots" from the camera,—Sel. J.1 Wigley in Rod and Gun. Her Baby Had Dysentery.

Mrs. Martin Parraher, Dogherty Cor- ner, N.B., writes: "I can very strongly recommend Dr. Fowler's Extract of Wild Strawberry for dysentery and summer complaints. :My little girl, at the age of two years, had the dysentery very bad. We had two doctors, but with no result. My mother brought me a bottle of "Dr. Fowler's," and when half the bottle was used the little girl was running around playing with her .lolls with great delight and joy to the family, for we did not think, she would ever get better." There are a number of preparations on the market to -day, claiming to be the same as "Dr. Fowler's Extract of Wild Strawberry," and also called similar names, so as to fool the public into think- ing they are getting the genuine.

A. writer in the Canadian Credit Men's Journal, says: "In some countries a man is liable for loss by fire originating in his own premises and extending to his neigh- bor's, unless he can show that the fire did not originate through careless- ness or faulty construction, and in al- most any country that I know of (ex- cepting Canada and the United States), It is considered rather derogatory for people to have an unexplained fire. In Canada, however, a man might have half a dozen fires of unknown origin, and duly collect insurance each time, 1 without detriment to his standing in the community. I am not speaking now of doubtful or fraudulent losses, but those due simply to carelessness. and I maintain that people have no tight to jeopardize surrounding pro Eerty in the manner that obtains here. u blic opinion should prevent it, even tbie laws do not." TITLED BANK DIRECTORS Canadian Banks Have Nineteen Knights on the Boards Eleven out of the twenty-two banks doing business in Canada have knights on their boards of directors, from which 1t would look as if the shortest way to a knighthood was to get on the board of one of our banking institutions. Altogether there are nineteen knights divided among the eleven banks, The Banks of Montreal, Commerce, and Ottawa have three each, Dominion and Northern Crown have two each, while the Imperial, Union, Royal, Merchants, Hamilton, and Provincials have one each. The fallowing is the list by banks: Montreal—Sir Frederick Williams; Taylor, Sir T. G. Shaughnessy, Sir William MacDonald. ' Commerce—Sir Edmund Walker, Sir J. M. Gibson, Sir Lyman Melvin -Jones.
