Shrimp, orates and oyster's shoultl:be included in the diet of ,any one at dieted with rickets, goitre cr anaemia according to Dr. D: Bre'see Jones chemist in charge of the protein in- veetiga'tiou laboratory, Butreau of Chemistry, United States Department of Agriculture. Speaking at the annual meeting of the American Public Health Associ'a-. Mont Dr, Jones declared Ihat his in- vestigations, carried out with albino. rats,; show thatshrinhp, clam, and oysters contain peoLein of high nutri- tive value and are iin01ortant•to' the diet of man,because they contain ele- ments essential to the growth and re -1 pair of body tissues. The mole general appreciation of the nutritive and corrective Values In these foods and consequent increase in their oonsumption wound be a great boonfor Canadian fleheries, con iruents the Natural Resources Intelligence Service, Department of the Interior, Ottawa, since Canada has on her Atlantic and Pacific coasts some of 'thee gr crest potential Shell fish- eries In the world to -day. Shell iisb are also known to exist in Hutrson say, Which has a shore line greater than the Mediterranean Sea, but the eoin- naexeial• pos'hibili.tte's of the fisheries in these waters will require further investigation. Some o'f the varieties of shell fish already being caught and marketed each year from Canadian waters ,are: olatue and cluahange, 55,000 barrolt; cockles, 200 cwt.; erabe, 67,000 cwt.; ,lobsters, 340,000 'cwt.; mussels, 76 cwt.; oysters, 21,000'barrele; scallops, 18,000 barrels; shrimps, 1,200 cwt.; winkles, 2,000 cwt.; derOse•, 5,000 cwt. In the ocean are found all of the 1 eighty odd elements lcmown • to exist on the earth -and the plants and ant, mels that stay in the sea all their lives' live in a medium that contains' every chelhuicaul element that can be needed in physical growth. This cannot 'be said of land animals and plants that derive their mineral constituents from the soft in their ian:mediate neighbor- hood. In man and so-called land ani- mals, disorders and diseases are known to be caused or influenced by deficieuaiies of calcium; phosphorus, iodine, iron and many other sub- stanoe's, The inclusion of sea foods in human diet goes a long way to correct many . of these common deficiencies and a more general consumption of such marine foods as shell fish forms an inexpensive and pleasant corrective for many of the physical ills of life, Shell fish as a class are a safeguard against miner•ai and vitamin'e deflcieu- cies in the diet and they deserve more attention bran they have had from , chemists and dieticians from this point of view. Modern research on food and num- trail have s brought to light g many eur- kesq;" both as regards the nutritive needs of the body and the dietary pro- perties of individwaisfoodetuffs, among which the most narked contrasts have been found.. In no case :a0cording to a the Resources Beret*, have any foods gained more recognition as having. unique dietary values than have the principal fish and she'll fish.-- Itis alae comforting to know that Can.ar1 e'e. sup- ply of these foods is ample and that the immensity of the fishing ' ground worlal indicate that with adequate re- gulations, the supply can be made to sustain a pernlanentled•uatry of great cornnrerc!a-l. value. OU[ W1N'rEl I'VlEITIIEf _. A Tryiltg Time ;toe People With Weak Watery ?dlolid. A Matter of Expression. - Once upen a time, two men met and tanked literature. One:of them was 'a Hugoi'nter, the other was not, And the i'nfid'el said to the faithful disciple• "You worship a god that is no god; His cranes are 'ho'l'low." The Hugo - tater denied this. Then the -other picked up a random volume of the man - ter and said: '"I will read from his works; listen, and interrupt meat the first original thought," And the in fides read, and the hours passed, and tire e.a.y wore on towards evening, and still lie read uninterrupted. When he lookedup he saw that the faithful dis- ciple was fast as'tcep. Was it because' et this that the had not interrupted the reader? Be that ets it may, when the other had awakened him, he cried out: "At least, 'you cannot denlr that Hugo has a wonderful flow of. • usels." The worshipful admirer• is quite right: Hugo is:rt marvellous master of expression. In- gamut and in variety of resources he is almost unrivaled. Ill occasional felicity, in effulgent splendor, and in burets of eloquence, he will bear comparison with the very greatest. Such 'gifts belong to only a few in the ioaig roll of t'he poets— they belong only to those who are like Hugo, marvellous masters o0 exprea- elon. Accordingly, in a -study of his style, after the enudneraion of each oi' the many faults Which unhappily are the nhaalte•weight of these remark- able qualities, the critic ought to add the retrain: • Sall Hugo is a marvellous master of expeessdon. tut to do this a hundred times in succession would be to tet oneself fall into one of Hugo's most persistent faults, repeti tion—unredeemed by his equally :per- sistent virtuosity. So let the reader, lheoughout the present chapter, after •the m'aldng one by one of the ,'stric- tures that Hugo's style'i'nvites, imag- ine each ons fodl'owed by the counter-. blaast of a "band of devoted temires's hymning in constantly gtrowing'cres- cend•o. the triumphant refrain: Still Rego is a marvellous master• of•expres- etonl—William F. Giese, in "Victor Hugo the Man and, the Poet." To give awkwardly is churlishness. The.moat difficult part is to give, then Why not add •a smile?

I was under medical treat- ment, but it 011 not help me. Then one day in our local paper I read an advertisement of Dr. Wilelams' Pink Pills, and decided to try them.

Fun Life Amami Statement An 'Outstanding Report. The Sun Life Assnranee Company of Canada continues to eclipse Its: own transcendent records. At the annual meeting" for 1927 which has just been held, President T. B. Macaulay was able to report that the total business Paid for in 1920 amounted to 5265,889,- 546, double that of 1024—only two years ago,' The assurances in force now exceed one and a quarter billions of dollars, The Sun Life has become much MOTs than our greatest Canadian eompany. It is one 00 the leading Life insurance companies of the world. Its growth is equally arresting whether compared with its own recoil or with the totals of insurance on this continent. The inlorease of its buriness at rislt in 1926 is greater' than the entire business ear- rietl by, the SIM Life at the outbreak of the war. It has now more business in farce than the total life assurance in force in all Canaa, with all com- panies, Canadian and foreign, when war was declared. Latest reports in- dicate that the general increase in 110e ineu ran co secure d dttrin 926 g x in the United States and Canada is six per cent. in excess of 1925. The Sun Life's increase for the year is 3734 per cent, I Fully keeping step with this great aeceee 'of business, the assets of the Company have increased during the past twelve months" by $42,195,000, "swelling the total to 5345,251,040. The Company's assets have multiplied Rye times in. the last twelve years. The Company's , eueoessful invest- ment policy is reflected in an analysis of its securities. Government valua- tors appraise a further increase in the excess value oSOle Company's securi- ties over coat, of nearly 57,000,000.. A profit of 51,700,000 has been realized T. B. Macauley President Sun Life, by the rellemptlou or stele of menieipol ,debentures s and other holdings which had risen to high premiums. The rate earned on tee mean investedt ed assets for the year rose. to the phenomenal figure of 6.69 per cent., this• being con - tribute'd to by dividend increases,. bonuses and other privileges granted on the Company's holdings, From the total surplus earned der- lng the year, 520,457,077, the Company has made large and prudent appropria- tions. After making these allocations, which add substantially to the unas- sailable security of the Company, an addition of $5,715,564 bas been added to undivided profit's, bringing the total surplus over all liabilities, ooatingency accounts and capital stock to 534,011,- 565. • Perhaps, howeyer, the features of the report of outstanding interest to the public are those relating particu- larly to benefits to policyholders. Dur- ing the year profits .amounting to $9,235,526 were paid or elicited to policyhciclers,'this amountbeing eight times in excees of the amount paid out ten years ,ago. Par six years past in- et•eaa s In pieties to policyholders have been announced, resulting in a doub- ling of the. profits r:c.ale during that period. Par the seventh success'lve time a further in: se is announced. The great total of ;70.450 has bean staid out during the year in respect of death. claims, natured endowments, etc., bringing the total so paid since organization to $257,56,174. The high rate ofr'interest earned enables the Company to distribute prattle on the assumption of 53per cent. per ,saofhn being eareetl on the Reserves. The same rate of interest is being allotted to heueficiaries on the proceeds of matinee endowments and death claims left with the Com- pany. In"this way again, policyholders are participating in the greet pros- perity of the Company. Not the least gratifying portion of the report is the flue showing of busi- ness written within the Dominion. Here again anew record is established for Canada in a massive aggregate of $102,000,000 of paid assurances. Tho Sun. Life Company is as'old as the Dominion. But it has greater define to Canadian pa•ide than that. It is today cue of the foremost of the emelt group of great Canaltan flnan- cial institutions which are making Canada fa'mons.

Haydn wrote a very effective des- cription by the latter method long be- fore ever be saw the sea, though when he did first sea it he had to cross tbe channel on a rough clay. The story is that for a certain opera he had to introduce such a storm. The 14bret- tist told him his own experiences of a storm and the composer tried to re- peat even if ever so feebly what was described. At !net the patience of both was about exhausted and the Ca1hh- poser hammered with This fists an the keys and exclaimed: "The devil take the storm." "That's it, that's 11," shouted the poet. "You've got it." All his trying had resulted in nothing, but an accident gate him the idea which he was able to carry out properly when writing for the orchestra. Wag- ner, on the other heed, wrote the fine storm which opens his opera,. "The Plying Dutchman," with the memory of several days of bad weather tra- velling Clown the North Sea.

She was working in a bus'in'ess office, but all was engaged to be rnarrled and wished to look well when she went out with her fiance. Slhe had no money saved up, -but she wanted that east; so she want to one of her brothers and asked flim to Renee* the matter for her. He told her, kindly but plainly, that he didn't care to do it. "You are working ands earning money," he said, "anti you live here aft home free 03 any expense for boars or lodging. A10 the rest of us contribute toward the family expenses. You must not ask us to buy your clothes too," The glees molthor told her that voider no consederetion must she contract bills that she could not pay before she was married. She must carry no debt iuto her new home for heat husband to shoulder. But the girl wanted the coat, and finally bought it on credit. Within a very, short time an unexpected busi- ness opportunity that tame to her young man madder it desirable for the eouple'to be married at once. The gtrl had paid but little on the coat, and dared not, or at least preferred not to, tell her husband of the debt. She Lias made .skimpy and irregular paym'ente from such money as she could divert from the household expense fund, so that the original bill of two hundred and Ilfty deflate is now down to one hundred; but meantime a 'chile] has been born to the couple, so that there have been extra expanses, and there is naw a t lad member ofthe family h to be provided for. The firm that sold the coat is getting 'impatient and be- ginning to send peneeoptory letters. And the coat is no longer new, but is a Tittle worn and shabby, and not fn the best style. The story, which is true in every de- tail, needs no moral, says a writerin Yoweh'e Companion. From the dealer's point of view it is so familiar that it is commonplace, but from the girl's point of view it comes near to tragedy y —in feet is tragedy.
