Mothers shuddered anew at visions of upset canoes, whittled -off fingers, and starved lost boys. The Scoutmaster interviewed each one and outlined a plan for a cheap camp on the lake, with supervised swimming and a firstaid expert. "But who will cook their meals?" asked each anxious provider of "moth- er's cookng.". "They cook their own," promptly re - mantled the Soeutmaster, . "Nonsense," rose the chorus. • But the troop served a Mothers' and Sons'. Banquet -and the mothers cap- Itulated. Then came •arose surprises. The Scoutmaster read a list of "good turns" and they realized that the my& terious supply of Widow Jones? larder was explained; that their sons 'had di- rected strangers; and.sodded a church lawn.

Then my appetite be- gan to fail, and 'after'. eating it seemed as if there was a lump in. my stomach. I grew;sic weak that I could not walk a hundred. yards without resting. Then I was taken with a numbness all over my body and was 1n a sad plight. I was under. a doctor's care, but as I was not getting any better, I decided to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. The first few boxes did not seem to help me but my wife urged me to continue their use and I gat four boxes. more. Before these were gone I could eat a fair heal, the numbness was leaving me and I was feeling much better in every way. I took the pills for a while longer, and felt that I was again a well man.

All this happened a good while ago, and most mothers know more about the Scout movement than they once did. But not all, even yet, realize the serious aspect under its fun and out- door good times. Women who live in some of the larger Canadian ,cities have seen the outcome of Scouting plainly. They have enlisted the khaki clad yeengsters in distributing "swat the fly" or "clean up" literature. _They have been met at trains coming for big. •conventions, and courteously es carted to hotels. At community cele- brations the Scouts have been ready, no crowd too big to yield to their good natured persuasions, no task too great for their ready help. Gradually these sons have grown more hardy and self-reliant, yet more • helpful and considerate. They: can mend a broken table leg, suggest a way of keeping water cool in hot weather, or turn in afire alarm, direct the men accurately and swiftly, while ether Scouts close windows, carry out furniture, and uncoil the hose. "A Scout is resourceful," they say teas- ingly to each other, but they are proud to have their resourcefulness tested and proved. They even are not ashamed to be seen helping an old man across the street, for the old- time "gang" will recognize it as the day's "good turn;' Then perhaps one day a crowded rowboat overturns, or a child is push- ed off a pier. They'little boy," as he home, dives instantly, Is still called at Y, his brown arms flashing through the water. He breaks the "death hold" coolly, and swims slowly back to where his comrades aro ready to pull yaseuod and rescuer from the water and to pump the air back into the half - drowned lungs.

Music in the churches varies from cheap, trashy anthems to the music of the great masters, both with and with out accompaniment. Music has come to mean so much in the daily life of the individual, particularly. in recent years, that there has developed a much larger general musical apprecia the: factthat if individuals from un- civilized cancer -free races partake of European or American fare, : they speedily become cancer -stricken. There is no reason why cancer should not be eliminated from this country if the public will exercise com- mon sense in the matter of its diet and positively refuse to continue' to des- troy, in cooking, the organic salts in all vegetables, which are essential to the continued preservation of our health. , We must admit that we pay tion than Is often recognized.

Before the Messina earthquake of January, 1915, birds were noticed to, be flying in flocks., evidently greatly disturbed, but It is an odd fact that there were no such signs before the sudden and dreadful earthquake which destroyed San Francisco: One explanation' of this sense pos- sessed by dumb creatures relay be that animals, having finer powers of heor- ing than man,, may detect under- ground rumblings or quiverings which man cannot sense. Or it may be that there is some electric tension which affects them. At any rate, there is no doubt that they do know many hours beforehand when an earth convulsion is about to take place. -:e Largest Building, For exhibiting furniture Chicago is erecting the world's largest building, a -.sixteen-storey structure that will contain 1,500,000 square feet of floor space. No 47 A Card Mystery The performer asks a , spectator to selecta card from the pack, to look at it and without showing it to anyone, replace it in the pack any- where nywhere he likes. The performer then asks the spectator to shuffle. the pack. Apparentlythe card Is lost in the pack, The performer, however, puts the cards behind his back and repeats a magic phrase.' Then be brings the cards into view and asks the spectator to name the card he selected. The performer turns over the. top card. It Is the card selected. This trick can be done without sleight of hand by using cards which have pictures,initead of Con- ventional designs, on the back. Be- fore presenting the trick, arrange the ,cards sothat the pictures all face the same way. When the spec- tator is looking at his, card, turn the pack around. When he replaces his card, therefore, it will be the only ane that is upside down. After the spectator has shuffled the cards, shuffle them yourself, keeping your eyes open for the inverted picture. It will not be difficult to complete the shuffle so that this card will be on the top or bottom. Placing the cards behindyour back is merely to make the trick seem more cone Plicated.
