Paris.—Steamship,; railway and tree
veleta are. net the only kinds' 'of tear:-
late
our-late that Parte 'wishes to attract and
hold. Along with the campaign Which
has: been instituted, to promote "tour-
ism'. in France there is being con-
ducted a campaign to make birds feel
at home in the capital, and to prevent
them from yielding to the imputes to
leave the city fol• the couutry, an -im-
pulse which appears almost as strong
as that which has been'drawing peo-
ple from the country to; the cities.
It happens that skill ,another .cam-
paign is being conducted to prevent;
the deforestation, or deboisement, of
France, and the bird lovers' have coin-
ed the word desoisement (from oiseau,
the French word meaning "bird") to,
describe tbe•tendency which they
wish to overoome in: Paris, In fact,
the two things usually .go together,
and the friends of birds are keen On
keeping; as malty.' trees standing in
the city as possible in order to pro-
vide leafy homes for the warbleis.
The music of winged songsters is
highly esteemed, and it is significant
, that an ornithologist of note, M, Ber-
lioz, has inherited the name of a.great
composer.
The modern school of. architects
came in for a certain share of the
Blaine for the "desoisement' of Paris,
until one of their leaders, M. Mallet-
Stevens, gave convincing proof of
their innocence. ` It was said that the
newer typos of buildings, being de-
signed on strictly straight lines, did
not afford the convenient nooks and
corners for nests which bird's used to
find in abundance in the older houses.
M. Mallet -Stevens has proved his de-
votion to birds by pointing, out that
there is no better place than a "mod-
ern" terraced roof in which to make
friends with the birds. He keeps a,
meal spread for them on. the roof of
his house, and there is always a bath
ready for them in his roof garden. Ile
has even designed a special type of
bird house or shelter which it admir-
ably adapted, both artistically and
from the practical viewpoint, to the
more modern type of city dwelling.
The French Birds' Protection
League, which is playing an important
part in this campaign, has created
1500 bird refuges in France, where
proprietors of . wooded lands have
agreed to protect winged tenants and
visitors, provide shelter for them, and
feed them in winter. In the Parc
Monceau, a pretty public garden hi
Paris, the league has installed, by
way of experiment and demonstration,.
several devices for feeding the pig-
eons, sparrows and blackbirds which
frequent the park.
War Robs World
Of Garden Cities
•
The League of Nations reports the
cost of the Great War at $353,000,000,-
000 and 37,000,000 lives—that is four
times the total population of Canada,
not merely in lives, but lives of select-
ed amen, competent in virtue of admir-
able qualities to meet the most ter-
rible responsibilities that -n imper-
fect civilization can plade upon men.
The cost .in money would have built
181,600 garden •cities, where the evils
of congested living, the sordidness, the
ugliness and the despair that breeds
resentment, auger, broken homes, in-
bred children, crime and disease
would have ne seed bed for growth.
Hospitals Require Efficiency
And Flexibility, Says Prince
"A really good hospital service must
combine, in due proportion, the quali-
ties of efficiency and flexibility, of or-
ganization and freedom," said the
Prince of Wales at a hospital function
recently. "Hospital work requires all
these qualities, It is from one point
of view a part of '.public health ad-
ministration,
"At the same time, from another
point of view, its essence consists of
a number of individual doctors treat-
ing a number of individual patients;
one of the most intimate personal and
human relationships that exists out-
side family life. It must also provide
for the advance of medical science;
and allow scope both for the individ-
ual genius and for the organized team
work which together produce that ad-
vance. - "Yet, again, it is a form of mutual
aid, in which all members of the com-
munity can taste a direct personal
share, on behalf of their fellow -mem-
bers who are disabled by sickness.
This is why our people value the vol-
untary hospitals to the tune of a2,-
if
700,000 a yearyearYeti voluntary, g is in
London alone, besides £850,000 a year
from the patients themselves. And
this is why it is so important that the
spirit of •toe • voluntary hospitals
should be preserved."
One of the largest employers of
disabled labor is the' British Legion.
In its poppy factory alone every one
of the l 267 employees is a disabled
ex -Service man, and they turned out
over 31.000,000 poppies last year.

Canadian Forests
Owned by People
Only 8% of Forests Privately
Owned—Direct Revenue
$15,000;000
Toronto, — Through the Dominion
and Provincial Governments the pee
pie of Canada own 92 per cent. of their
forests, the remainder being privately
owned. The direct reveuuo received
by the Federal and Provincial Gov-
ernments from forests in the form of,
rentals, royalties, etc., amounts to ap-
proximately $16,000,000 annually. The
total stand of timber, including all spe-
cies, both hardivood and softwood, is
placed at 242,127,000,000 cubic feet.
Fires, insects and fungi are taking
a great toll of Canada's forests. For-

if present methods. continue, experts
maintain that the annual cut will have
to be reduced.
The forest is second only to agricul-
ture 1n the value of Canada's products.
The capital invested in forest indus-
tries is approximately $076,000,000,
one-third of which is iii lumbering

Ottawa.—Creation of a world-wide
commercial intelligence service to lie
used in collecting expert crop and
market inforlitation on all linos ofag-

recently by M. H. Lloyd, assistant
secretary of the .Empire Marketing
Board, and Dr. J. II, Grisdaie,.Deputy
Minister of Agriculture and Canadian
representative ou the executive coup
oil of the Imperial Agricultural Bureau
a sub -committee of the board.
Mr, Lloyd, who Is touring Canada in
the board's interests, ,admitted .that
the creation of such a corps and the
dissemination of timely and expert
knowledge has been a matter of con-
sideration by the Empire board for
some time. It might be discussed, he
said; at the forthcoming Empire
economic conference. Expert agricul-
turists, schooled in the collection of
marketing and crop conditions would'
be maintained in practically all coun-
tries,of the world, if the plan were set
in operation.. Their reports would be
collected in one central depot and
from there distributed all over the
Empire.
Such a scheme, Mr. Lloyd believed,
would be of great assistance to the
Canadian wheat pool and other co -t
operative marketing organizations.
The world's marketing and crop cote
ditiouscould be gauged quite accurate-
ly and the dissemination of this in-
formation would be of great talus to
agriculturists all over the Empire. He
will visit Toronto, Winnipeg, Regina.

Dull eyes mean misery a id weak-

have dull, heavy eyes with dark lines
underneath. The bright-eyed girl or

- There is one way to make the eyes
bright—to bring the glow of health to
pale cheeks—th t is to invigorate the
body with new blood—rich, red health -
giving blood. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
do this and the: do it well. Concern-
ing them Mrs. Robert Devitt, Broug-
ham, Cut., says: "My daughter became
so 111 and nervous we had to take her
out of school. She was pale and thin;
hereyes were dull and the least exer-
tion upset her. I began giving her Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills and in less than
six months you would not know her.
She gained in weight and strength and
is now the picture of health."

Grass and Moss Stains
During the summer grass and moss
stains are common, and as these are
unsightly—especially on white gar-
ments—steps should be taken to re-
move them as soon as possible.
If sue stains are on white material,
damp the affected parts with cold
water, then sprinkle with a mixture of
equal parts of salt and tartaric acid.
Allow the mixture to retrain on the
material until it is quite dry, than
brush off lightly with a pad of sof
cloth, or with a soft brush. Should
any traces of the stains remain, repeat
the process.
For colored materials, rub the affect-
ed parts lightly with pure glycerine.
Allow this to remain on the material
for an hour or so, then wash the article
or garment in the usual way. If the
stains are old, it uiay be necessary to
repeat the process two or three times.
Greetings
To -day I met a collie dog
That looked like "Sunny Jim,"
And when I stopped the gentleman
To asic what tickled hien,
He gave me such a nasty loon,
As if I were quite dumb,
And said—"You blooming idiot,
To -day the Slu'iners come."
"But why," said I, "Should dogs be
glad
Although they're very fine?"
Ile growled—"Each single Shriner is
A bosom friend of mine—
They always stand for kindliness,
And that iueludes the dumb,
So all Toronto animals
Are glad that they have come.
