Swift morning rises into noon The sun has set the world in tune, Iluinming-birds hover at a rose ' That close beside my window grows; Among green leaves orioles dart; At goshawk's cry the small chicks start: :Blue slender harebells strike a chime To mark the passing of noontime, A heat -mist over fields of grain, Swift gathering clouds that presage rain, Hushed songsters seek a sheltering copse, A beating rain upon green crops, Returning sun, carolling birds, Blythely singing without words, Lingering twilight, dewy flowers -- Summer's one with leafy bowers. --Annette Thomas in The New Out - Look. I wonder if you ever change a hu- man being with argwnents alone . . I wonder if you ever make any rea difference in human beings without understanding then and loving them. For when you argue with a man, (how much more with a woman) you are somehow trying to put him down and make hint less (and yourself more); but 'when you try to under- stand hip, when you like .him, how eager is he then to know the truth you have; and you add to hint in some strange way, you make hint more than he was before, and at the same time, and that is the sheer magic of it, you yourself become more. There is nothing in the world that people so much thrive upon, grow fine and nosy and robust upon (especially wo- men), as being loved.... Facts are not to be thrown at people like dish- es or vegetables, but somehow to be wormed into them. ---David Grayson. Personally I think the above (froth that pleasant old philosopher, David Grayson, do you know his very read- able books?) is a very mine of wis- dom and if we could all remember and practise it we should be moth happier and make all connected with us happier, But, somehow, we are all so apt to think that if we could only talk other people into our way of think- ing , (without stopping to consider what a dull old world this would be if everybody did think exactly like us) why, everything would goo on 0I' TIHi Pibirat Al oilri tdirnt and Life Insurance Companies, in Canada. Edited by GRANT FLEMING, M.D., Associate Secretary BILIOUSNESS Biliouseess is a term that today is mot as commonly used as it was in the past generation. It is still heard, however, in descriptions sof a con- dition of which the usual symptoms are headache, dizziness, indigestion, •eoated tongue, bad taste in the mouth, and a depressed, tired feel- ing. This condition is described as bil- iousness because the vomiting which occurs usually brings up bile, and so it is supposed that the liver, which manufactures the bile, is out of or- der, In such cases, the Iiver" is out of order, but' the liver is not to blame. This organ carries on its work, day by day, without upsets, but if it is called upon to do more work than it is Capable 'of doing, then trouble re- -sults. If, for example, too much food is eaten, particularly if the overi.ncldl-' genee is in sweets and"fats, there 'is very apt to be an upset of 'the diges- tive system, constipation occurs and ' the liver is overworked. .When the liver is unable to function properly, the whole body suffers and the in- dividual feels depressed or "blue. This condition does not call Tor purgatives or liver Pills. What is needed is simple food and reasonable :.attention to the manner • of living. If the body is overloaded with foods. the machine becomes choked and cannot function properly. If waste materials are not got rid of, the machine cannot run smoothly. The eating of a wide variety of plain foods is important. Overin- dulgence in any particular food must be avoided. Food must be thor- oughly chewed. Meals should be taken at regular hours and not hur- iedly. • The body requires exercise, which is best obtained in games or in some outdoor activity, such as walking or gardening. A glass or two .,of water upon rising and between meals is desirable, Regular elimination can be secured througli - the establish- ment of a regular toilet ,habit, to- gether with exercise and diet. ,.It is the neglect of these health needs whish results in attacks of bii- ioussess pr sick headache. There is nothing else that wili take the place of these requirements; ee.•tainiy. nothing in the form of medicine. Health is not found in a bottle of medidine It comes through the way of living and in no other way. Questions concerning Health, ad- dressed to the Canadian 1Vtedical As. sociation, 184 College Street, Toren" to, will be answered personally by letter. beautifully. If we are young we aro sure that all old people are wrong and behind the times and id they. could just sec things as we see them all would be well, and if we are older, we are convinced -that if we could only hammer and bludgeon our ideas, which have taken half a lifetime to ,acquire, into the heads sof the youth, they would be so much better able to meet the temptations of the world and prepare for the burdens which life is sure to place upon their young shoulders. In thus trying to "mould to lour Will" the wills of others we do not stop to think that if the Creator had wanted to make a worldful of perfect -people, all along the same line, yen even on millions of individual lines, He could easily have done it, and that He would have trade a bet ter job of it than wo can ever hope. to do. But Ile did not want that sort of people. What He wanted was a worldful of individuals, with free and unhampered wills, were would each ddvelope his and her own individual chaxaeter' in his and her own individual way. And isn't ' it a good thing that such i the case? Some people try to treat humanity in the mass, God never did, never does. Before Trim we and individuals, each as distinct And as well known to Him as the planets. And it is only by love, understand- 'ing, sympathy that we can really help anyone else. • It is not much wonder that Christ said that to love God and our neighbors was the greatest commandment, as all other things are bound up in that. —REBEIAH. What Clinton was Doing in The Gay Nineties DO YOU REMEMBER WHAT HAP PENED DURING T.Tlin LAST DE- CADE OF THE OLD CENTURY? From The News -Record, June 28th, 1893. Mr. E. H. Yates has "learned" the editor of this paper to ride the Singer, an English bicycle. And now we would like to own a horse and buggy. Clinton as a town will nob have any sports on the first, Bayfield, Goderieh and Sarnia will be the most attractive points. The bicycle track, it is expected, will be completed next week. A ventilator has been placed in the roof of the Masonic hall, the im- provement will add greatly to the comfort of the brethren. To take Foul Air out of Woll:—I saw v. mins method used the other day to take foul air out of a well. The well was to be cleated but the ratan who took the job was afraid to go down until he had ascertained the quality of the air at the bottom. He had let down a lighted candle and when it had descended to about six :feet of the bottom it went out as suddently as if extinguished by n whiff of air.... Ila was then sure that the well had poisonous gas in it and took a small umbrella, tied a string to the handle and let it down open into the well. Having let it go nearly to the bettor he drew it up, carried it a few feet from the well and upset it. He repeated this op- eration twenty or :thirty times, with all the by-standers laughing at bier, then again lowered the light, which burned clear and bright even et the bottom. He then condescended to explain that the gas in the well was carbonic acid gas, -which is hea- vier than air, and therefore, could be brought up in the umbrella, just as though it were so much water.

The lady whose personal magnetism he could not re- p sist, was Miss Louie Cole of St. Catharines, (eldest daughter of Mr. Aaron Colo,) and she looked just as t charming as brides always do, while the groom—thats Ed.—avis more or 1 less (rather less) as complacent as Ithe circumstances would permit. Mr, Janes Varley of St. Catherines, (who tvows he had no ill -twill in the mat - Iter) stood by to see that the groom ({passed safely through the ordeal and (did not "weaken" just at the oppor- tune moment, while Miss Jessie Cole, sister of the bride, gracefully lent her charming presence and help. Rev. W. Vanw',yck of Hamilton, tightened up the cords, while a large crowd quietly, admiringly stood by, and volunteered no relief to the cap- tive, That the bride was popular was generously shown in the cus- tomary manner. After they spend a week (and a lot of good money) in visiting Cleveland, Detroit and other little places, they will settle down to "love is a cottage?' and become permanent residents of Clinton.

But just to know you have a friend Who will "stand by" until the end, Whose sympathy through all endures, Whose warm handclasp is always yours It helps, some way, to pull you through, Although there's nothing he can do, And so with fervent heart you cry "God bless the friend who just stands by." —.Avon A LEGEND The twilight shades were creeping O'er a Galilean town, And the Master walked in the garden As the sun was going doivn. The Blaster was weary, weary, ' And spent with the cares of day, But l'Iis eyes gazed ever westward Till the flaming skies were grey, The Master was weary, weary, And sighed in the dusky hours, Unhdeding the beauty around slim And the freshness of the flowers, Then the lilies in the shadows Raised high their dew-eups sweet Spilling their cooling fragrance To lave the Master's feet. The Blaster smiled in the darkness And, touching tite lilies white, Ile left red dust from IIis fingers On their waxen eups that night.
