Mr, - For some years past the work that this Hospital has boon, able to da for the children of Ontario hes been:. seriously cramped., through lack ,-of space. A point 'was reached where the Trustees had to -decide whether its service should be reotr!eted 10 the utmost .number of "Sick hide', whom it could provide' with cots or whether it should add' to its roam. There are many youngsters suffer. Ing from afflictions of the spine and joirits,'whom only many'long months ran restore t0 health :and strength. Mecical care .a -ill help; but :what they principally need is fresh .'air and. sunshine, Hitherto the ,i-Iospital for Sick Children has looked after such children in an institution close by • a city playground; where more fortunate hogs and girls enjoy^ their. sports. lmaahie their 'plight, lying month- atter month' Listening to the shouts and laughter of other children. In Qctober last, :the "Hospital for Sick Children opened its Country annex devoted to youngsters whose one chancey to have their -limbs straightened or their Oodles built up must be in some place: where they -- have sunshine and trash air plus nursing care and medical attention. On 'a height• -.of lapd near Weston, away, from the murk of the city, children are winning. their way back to :tiealtb'in an environment of. sun - 'shine, pure breezes arid. quiet. The country hospital at Thistle. town is a God -send for children whom it will takea long time to ours. It also liberates a hundred cots in the parent institution for youngsters who can be set right in 'a short time if quickly given con- stant attention. So, the Hospital tor Sick Children has now two doors to keep open day and night to every class. color and creed. For more than 'half a century the Hodpital has depended for. ite very existence upon the public' response to its annual appeal which, being In behalf" of children. is appropriately made at Christmas time. For over fifty r years the H.F.S.Q. has' been enabled to make both ends meet by .' the donations of its friends, whether • such be a dollar or an endowment. But the end of 1928 finds it with many large bills to pay for•its new. venture. To its old friends the Hospital for Sick Childrenonce more appeals. It Is because so many of your readers are included in that -ever-growing circle, that 1 trespass upon your space to remind them that it was their generosity in the past that em- boldened the Hospital's Trustees to 'build for -the future. With an extra effort stimulated by a new need, cannot the' income of the "Sick fctds" be put once more abreast of Its urgent needs? Faith to ly • yours, ERVING 18.

A pessimist is a man wino puts out a light to show how dark it really is. A story is told of a certain English politician who thought everybody knew or'ougb.t to know him. One day he was walking through a field when a bull addressed him hi alt undertone and made for him with his head doivn. Tho politician was 'a man of dignity and political power. But he ran, He sal surprisingly well and reached the fence before the bull. leo clambered over, ottt of breath and dignity, and found. the owner of the bull eontem-' plaling the operation. "What do you mean, sir," asked the irate politician, "by having an Infuri- ated anintaI like that roaming about the field?'; "Well, L suppose the bull Ilas some right in the Held," said the farmer. "Right? Do you know who 1 am?" gasped the politician. The farmer shook ,hie head. • • "I am the Right honorable Sir—" '1'lien why on earth, didn't you tell the hull?" said the farmer. A wealthy lady was calling on a minister's wife, whom she found busy with 'the family Mending. The weal- thy lady remarked that she never did mending,' but would gladly help sew on buttons. In the midst of her wont she exclaided, "Why, that's a button alt my husband's coat?' "Very likely," "the minister's wife replied. "We found. it In the collec- tion box""last Sunday."

MEN YOUR BABY CATCHES A COLD in spite of all precautions little ones will take colds—especially during the changeable days of our ran season. When the first symptoms appear -- sneezing, redness of the eyes, running nose—Baby's. Own- Tablets should be given at once: They will rapidly break up the cold and prevent more serious complications. Mothers who keep a box of Baby's Own Tablets in the home always feel safe in fact they are. like. (raving a' doctor in the house. They are a gentle but thorough ' laxative that sweeten the stomach and regulate the bowels, thus driving out constipation and indigestion and relieving, the baby of the many childhood ailments which are the direct result of a clogged con- dition of that bowels or scut stomach. They are absolutely safe—being guar, anteed to contain no drug'at all harm.. fur to even the youngest babe, They dannot possibly do harm—they always do good.

The Airplane an Far klaska Their Coming Means End of Salmon -Drying Trade---. , Fisheries in. Texas and Mexico Aided Airplane travel iso affecting the fish trade. In Alaska it has. nearly destroyed a flourishing industry, in' Southern United Stars and Mexico it has added great impetus to the fish- ing business In the Far North dog teams have long been the accepted carriers. To supply the huskies with food the sal- mon -drying industry arose along the rivers of Alaska where,the fish make their yearly runs to spawn. This business reached large proportions. Then came the airplane, and dis- tances that had ,been days away could be reached within a 'few hours. Dog teams lost in favor, and in the past three years there bas been,little de- mand for dried salmon. The indus- try is rapidly dying out. • Several aerial transportation corn. - pantos now after regular service be- tween Alaskan points throughout the year and more than forty landing fields dot this territory. The regular dog service between Nonie and Fair- banks has been discontinued. Regu- lar flying service is maintained be- tween these two points, while other planes fly between Fairbanks, Idita- rod, McGrath and Tacotna, routes. formerly traversed only by clogs. But 111 the southern part of the United States the airplane is building the fisheries' trade, and is expected to add thousands of dollars to t'lle value of the industry.

RHEU TC 'VICTIMS Can Find Relief Through Build- ing Up the Blood ,Pain is the symptom of rheumatism that every victimrecognizes, and lie generally attributes the trouble to cold, damp or changeable weather. But doctors know that thin blood is -a marked characteristic of the trouble. Trying to cure rheumatism while the -blood remains thin and poor is an im- possible task because there is nothing to build on. A tonic like Dr. Williams' Pink Pills that enriches the blood and 1 frees it from poisonous Impuritlea• soon banishes rheumatism from the system. • So long as the blood is main- tained 5n a healthy condition the trouble will not return. This is not theory. It has been proved in hun- dreds of oases; here is one:—Mr. J. W. Rose,' R,R,: 2, Albany, 'P,E.i., says:—"For some Years I was a great sufferer from rheumatism and al- though I tried a great many remedies, I did not get any permanent relief until after I tool: Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. The trouble was located mostly in my shoulders, and at times WAS .so bad that my right arm was almost useless, Of course I suffered much pain and great inconvenience. My attention was directed to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills through an advertisement in our newspaper, and I decided 'to try them. I took the pills according to directions with the result that the rheumatism has left me, and I, have never had a twinge of it since. If this meets the eye of any rheumatic suf- ferer my advice Is try Dr. Williams' PinIt Pills at once," Ton can get these .pills from any niedieine dealer or by Mail at 50 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medi- a cine Go., Brockville, Ont. x ' S�. onS Put Woden First Middle Day of Week Held Sacred to This Mytholo- gical God Woden was theishighest in rank and the holiest In character of all the mythological deities known to the Saxons. He was the ail -pervading. spirit of the universe, the personilhea- tionof the air and the god of univer- salwisdom and victory, The middle day of the seven was held sacred to the divinity of this gad and was known as Woden's•Doeg, or Wednesday. Woden was worshiped throughout Northern Europe, but he was espeer- ally deified In the great temple erect- ed 16 limn at Upsala, Sweden, wrierae the most solemn festivals were held, says "The Washington Star." It was the customs to make sacrilaciai offer- ings to. the god, tete victim usually being a horse, but in time of pressing need human sacrifices were made. Even.the Icing, according' tq the myth, was once offered up to avert fam- ine. Another of the more important fetes in honor of this god was the annual Mayday . festival, continued until recently.. in Sweden, when a A. Mile High Suribath " grand procession known as the liiay. Ride was held; in which an image 0f ..Woden; 111e floWor•dociced May acing," was' Carried through the streets in• great pomp, In addition to the Mayday celebra- tion, feasting ctllcl merry -making took place on the "fourth day of each week in honor of the naming of -Wednesday for Woden. Temples of Panes, as they -were called by the' Saxons, were erect - on Id this god in every important city, Where It was the custom for large crowds to -assemble on festive occa- r_011.3 to vicar songs by the scalds,- or traubadcure, who were rewarded for their ssrvices by the gift of golden bracelets or armlets, which curled :up at the ends and Were called Woden's serpent:.- Woden was believed to be the in- ventor of Runes, the first "alphabet of the Northmen: The letters' consisted almost entirely of straight lines placed in different groups and poSltions and at ono Ohm were thought to have magical meaning, He ,,also gave his people a' coclo of laws whereby to govern their conduct, f urging courage, t lineessranee ludo endencoau1 truth.
