Mr. Galloway had been ill for well over a year, and was undergoing treat- ments' which he expected' would keep film out of the most active parts of the Scout programme for another year or two, but no one realized that his ,condition wee as bad as it really was,. His deaththerefore came most unexpectedly: Assistant Scoutmaster Weeding was out of town at the time, but on returning on the day of the funeral found that the Patrol Leaders and Scouts had made all arrangements for a Boy Scout funeral for theirlate leader. Rev. Mr. 'Cranston, Chaplain of the Troop, conducted the services. Simcoe scouts Help the Birds. The Boy Scouts of Simcoe's three troops have undartakei the construe - tion and erection of bird houses in Lyn- wood Park, under the direction of the local parks board. The board is hope- ful that birdlife may bo fostered in this way and also that children of the community will learn something of bird life and more of the love of na- ture. This is an activity which could 'well be followed by Scouts of other communities. - Their Safeguard. A ,speaker at a farmers rally told this story in the course of a lively and forceful address on Organization: "A negro down Soutb,-lsoted for Itis remarkable handling of the whip, was out driving one day with his boss, See- ing rose in bloom along a beautiful the roadside, Sam cracked his whip and cut off the rose,which he gave to his boas. • 'Thank you, Sam,' the latter said. Presently a cottontail rabbit ju> ed out 0f a thicket nasi hy. lint again cracked Ms whip bigir ,,s.tapped up the rabbit into the rig Nealso pre- rented it to his boas. : "A little furthe-seEfeng they saw a hornet's nett -0• `"an overhanging limb of a tree,.-Tio boss, fearing Sam might shill on It' exclaimed, 'Sans, don't touch that nest.' " 'Don't you•al1 worry, boss, 3 ain't crazy; was the quick and emphatic re- ply. 'Then; fellers is organized: " A Real Detective. Sherlock arid' his 'faithful Watson were strolling down Piccadilly,• "There's,a woman In Very short skirts )1191, behind us, my dear. doctor'," murmured the greet detective. "Marvelous'" enthused Watson, at- - ter he had reel roborated the statement' by a glance behind. "How Its the world did you. ever know without turn- ing your Bread?"

Tealousy may be born with love, ,but. it. does not :always die with it. teeth and mouth does not alter the i fact that this work of pre -digestion should be accomplished by chewing.! For sooner or later the stomach work- ing overtime will cease to do its work' properly and when it gives out the' owner finds himself a victim of some' sort of indigestion. Thorough masti- cation is necessary for other reasons. The longer the food is retained in the mouth and the longer it is chewed, the more chance thetaste nerves have to come in contact with it; and when the palate is satisfied the appetite is appeased and the desire for, food goes. In this way one does not need to eat so much food to remove the sense of hunger. The same mouthful of food retained in the mouth for sixty 'sec- onds will, go nearly as far toward satisfying the taste nerves as two mouthfuls retained in the mouth thirty seconds each. It can thus be sten that thorough mastication of food is a preventive of overeating, end it may be said that overeating is one of the dietary sins of the age. The savory taste of food in addition to the notion of the jaws and cheeks facilitates the flow of saliva. It 'is necessary that the mouth juices be incorporated with the food while still in the mouth. Chewing of gum or other substances between meals cre- ates an undue flow of saliva at a time when the salivary glands should be at rest.' The result is a shortage of that necessary fluid when the next ureal time arrives.

Influence. • You have seen a little pebble in the water lightly thrown, And it vanished, oh, how quickly it was out of sight and gone; But the ripples from it widened, stretching outward more and more, Never ceasing in their motion till they reached the other shore. Fellows, yon are casting pebbles in life's ocean day by day, Words and thoughts and actions drop- ping, seem to vanish by the way; But, as ripples from them widen, each one bears another soul, Dither nearer God or farther from Life's eternal goal, True, when words and actions vanish they are gone beyond recall, But they leave in silent motion waves of sweetness or of gall. 'Tis a solemn thought, oh, weigh it; none can live to self alone; Lives of others are made brighter or made darker by our own.

The work of the woman In the home !Makes greater demands on her vital.- ty than men realize, and there is al- ways something more to do. No won- der women's backs ache, and their nerves are worn out.

Von can do it with Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. These pills have the marvellous property of building up the blood and toning up the nerves. That is proved by the ease of Mrs. H. llippinger, Scott Street, Vancouver, B.C., who says:—"Dr, Wit- Hams' Pink Pills brought back my health and strength and restored my nerves to normal condition after other medicines had failed.. It was af- ter the birth of my second child that I became so anaemic and nervous that I thought I would lose my mind as well as my strength. I tried several medicines, but got no relief until I was advised to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. After using a few boxes of these I could see a change, I felt wasetter, I appetite b stronger; my platite slept better, and my nerves were stronger.

A gigantic bridge has been planned to cross the famous Golden Gate at the entranoe to San Francisco harbor, a distance of over a mile and a half. In order that liners and other vessels may pass underneath, the centre span will be 200 ft. above the water, whilst at either end will be steel towers ris- ing to a height of 950 ft, Over this huge structure will run a double street railway track, a wide motor road, and two pavements for pedestrians. At the top of the great steel towers it is proposed to build platforms from which visitors will be able to obtain a marvellous view of San 'Francisco and the ,mighty Atlan- tic He Was No Expert at That.

Chefs:field a"ltttle town 'n,tlie south- ern county of Rent, came into the limelight recently when It became known that Mr, and Mrs. John Edward Taylor, the oldest married couple in. England, were living in a cottage in Greenetreet Green. John Taylor, who is a cockney by birth, celebrated his 100th birthday recently, and his wife, "my Sophy, a Suffock woman from Thurston," reaches ber centenary in August. They are a healthy, happy couple, with no fads, though John is rather more energetic than Sophy. He is fond of a good long walk, smoking, and, to use his own words, is "not afraid of a glass of good ale." John Taylor, who spent the first forty years of his lite In London (he did not marry untilhe was nearly forty), has some interesting things to say of the London of his boyhood. He left school before he was twelve, go. Ing to workas a greengrocer's boy. Incidentally, the green grocer sold oysters, as well as vegetables, large, ones, at four cents far three! The London of 1880-40 was lit by smoky, smelly old lamps, the police- men, "peelers," as they were then called, after Sir Robert Peel, wore top hats and white trousers, and watch- men stil -cried the dine of night and the state of the weather. "At Camberwell (on the outskirts of. London) I've seen men in the stocks," Taylor said, "and jeered and hooted with the rest, When King George's mother, then Princess Alexandra, came to .England as a bride I walked across London Bridge to see the pro- cession, and the lamps on both sides were burning aweet mellingincense."
