BRUISES.
'A bruise or contusion is an injury
to the soft tissues beneath the skin,
when the skin itself is 'notsbrokee.
The discoloration that attends a
bruise is caused by blood escaping
from the -ruptured blood -vessels
tont filtering into the tissues. A
bruise may be trifling or serious;
there may be only the smallest su-
perecial discoloratien of the skin,
or•there may be large collections of
blood in the cavities of the body.
- Some people braise so readily that
they are quite unable to account for
large black bruises that appear on
the surface of their bodies. Also
parts of the body bruise more
readily than others. That is the
case with the sides of the chest,
and with the orbit of the eye, as
seen in the very -conunon "black
eye."
A- severe bruise is accompanied
not only by discoloration, but by
pain, tenderness and local swelling,
and in some cases by

lerrible Results of the London
Transport Workers' Strike.

transport workers' strike has be-
come keenest in Westham, where
there is a population of 187,000, the
majority of whom under norma)
conditions are below the poverty
line. In such a district as this the
nip of the strike is felt immediate-
ly and there are now some hundreds
of men, women and children literal-
ly starving. Thousands of men are
out of work, who have received on
an average $6 of strike pay since
the strike began. The pawnshops

HEALTH AND FOOD.
The en -wisdom of eating too ranch
alt is empjhasizes1 by Dr. Alexans
er. Bryce in "The'Laws of Life and
[ealth." "Spices and condiments
no nutritive yalue," he
rite, "but are used as relishes,
nd are sepposed to aid digestion
y stimulating the organs to pbur
trth more gastric fluids. But as
iis is chiefly mucus they do more
item thaa goad. They are also pro-
active of many cases of chronic ca-
trrh of the throat, on account of
mir local irritant qualnies,
" B•ealth canhot be maintained

"Where any special mineral in-

something, instead," , •
Flora Annie wished that she had
known about the gifts 'sooner ; she
would have liked th make Miss Ware
a bag a-nd. embroidealer initials on
it. She knew how, and she had
made -herself one with her own ini-
tials—"F.A.P."--on it.' In her own
sewing -basket she had many pretty
remnants of silk.
Flora Annie mused 'regretfully on
the park bench;' and she was still
thinking theta Miss 'Ware's 'birth-
day when she went to her Tittle bed-
room at night.
As she opened her bureau &ewer
to fold away her hair ribbon, her
glance fell on the bag she had made.
She took it out and looked at the
initials, "F.A.P." Just a plain
bag without her rnonograan would
have been suitable to give Inc a
present. "For a present." she re-
peated otit keel, and suddenly she
broke into a laugh.
When Miss Ware's birthday came,
what most surprised and pleased
-her was a pink silk, bag that was
given taller by her little new pupil.
It containedsa note that said that
Flora Annie would have liked to
make her a brand-new bag., but slid
not have time.. Sie hoped when
Miss Ware saw" -the mitiale• "F.A..-
P.," that she svonld thinkofthem
as meaning "Fog a Present" from
her loving Flora Annie Pine. a
All this happened a longtime ago5.
