Because of tate; name of these cigarettes, he. was nicknamed by 'the soldiers "Woodbine Willie", and under that pseudonym he became known to thousands of people the world over by the cheery poems and letters which were ,printed over that name. He'published a volume of his poems under the title "Rough Rhym- es of a Padre," which received a wide circulation and was well known in Ca- nada. His labors and the admiration they aroused gave him a good deal of pro- minence. He was appointed one of the King's chaplains and • received many attentions at Court. He is now rector of the church of St, Edmund King and Martyr, Lombard street, London, Eng., and is a recognized power for good among city business men as he was among men at the battle front. His downright, forcible preaching and talk is probably doing as much for the spread of the Saviour's king- dom among men, as any single in- fluence exi"sting at present. He hag travelled much in the interests of the veterans, and has become well known in Canada.

Studdert-Ken- nedy, M.C., although still at the meri- dian of his life, has already won a reputation in more than one field of manly endeavor. Ordained in 1908, after officiating in subordinate posi- tions for a few years he was vicar of a fairly important charge in Worces- ter from 1914 to 1921. For most of that time, however, he was a military chaplain in France and Flanders, a general favorite with the troops und- er his spiritual care. Possibly no chaplain was more highly esteemed at the front, and none had more influence over the men for good. His blunt, cheery opto- mism bore him triumphantly through the unusual occurrences that befell him, and infused hopeful courage in- to all who encountered him. His wide circle of friends and all the pri- vate means at his disposal, kept him supplied with cigarettes, which he was always ready to distribute with the A avIVF'S iI,F71N11I. i. Sir Henry Uawlrins Secured Matey for Prisoner, The distinguished judge, Sir Henry Hawkins, later Baron Brampton, was noted rather for severity than gen- tleness. But on one occasion, and that a difficult one, he managed very neatly to secure mercy for a prisoner, whom it seemed impossible to rescue from punishment. The ease is recalled by an Anter - lean writer, who says that the man, already suffering imprisonment for some earlier offence, had tamed a mouse -which visited his cell, and made a pet of it. A brutal warder; entering while he was playing with his tinyfriend, deliberately stepped upon te little creature and killed it. bYrffiitie with grief and at the cruel outrage, the prisoner caught tip his dinner -knife and dashed at the ward- er, who only just escaped, the knife Stabbing the door as it closed behind His stirring books, "Food for the Fed Up," "The Wicket Gate," "The Impatience of a Parson," have sold in often repeated editions, and al- though they exhibit little of the grace of literary finish, make their way into the hearts people by reason of their sincerity, enthusiasm, and straight -to - the -mark use of every day express- ions and blunt language. Certainly a man to be reckoned with is "Wood- bine Willie," parish parson, military chaplain, returned soldiers' friend, poet and author. • Naturally impatient of the ultra - conservatism which would change nothing though it accomplishes little or nothing, he has become an ardent church and social reformer, and when he finds no hymns suited to his ser- vices or ideas, sets to work to write some. He is one of those who would find place for songs of praise or pray- er to God, in his lecture room or at times even in his church.

Nevertheless, he was Piot fionpinssed. In his charge to the jury jhi staid: "If a man tries to gill another in away which is absurd, it becomes a foolish rather than a criminal act. If, for example, a man in London dis- charged a pistol to hurt a man in Edinburgh, we could only laugh at such an offence. So also when a man stabs an iron -plated door 'While an- other man is at the other side of it, we cannot take it seriously." The jury were only to glad to fol- low such a lead, and promptly brought in a verdict of "Not guilty." Doubtless the judge's legal—or il- legal quibble—was bad law; but it made possible a mercy more just than a sentence more legally correct would have been. One of his songs of Industrial Soc- ial Service which has made its way into a hymnal is the one printed here- with. This is popular among its author's people and is becoming one of the accepted anthems of Christian labor. That last line rather smites one in the face with its unusual mat- ter-of-fact statement, but is full of grim meaning when you come to think who or what are the "shavings," the Divine Carpenter will sweep away at His coming again. The tune Lombard Street was spec- ially written for this hymn by F. G. Russell, an organist and personal friend of its popular writer, whose church it is to be remembered, is in that Lombard street which runs through London's famous financial district. ASHFIELD INVENTOR OF SAXAP23ONE. World Owes to Elm Most of Copper Instruments Used To -day. Who put the "sax" in saxophone The responsible person was Adolphe Sax, a Belgian born in 1814. From early childhood Sax's life was disastrous. He was knocked down flights of stairs, swallowed a pin, twice burned, accidentally drank vitriol mixed with water, was thrown some distance by an explosion of gun- powder, and was poisoned, besides nearly losing his life by asphyxiation and drowning. However, Sax survived all these calamities, and started on a career bearing on the reform, or invention, of almost all wind and percussion musical instruments. Meyerbeer, the fanous composer, called him "the genius of copper and of sounding brass," but Sax had to struggle for forty-nine years against strong opposition by all the manu- facturers of musical instruments, whose principles and science lie so completely upset. It was in 1842, while studying acoustics in Paris, that Sax made the discovery that led to the instrument that bears his name, for it was in the construction of the saxophone that he first applied the principles of acoustics he had discovered. The ring of the tone is determined by the shape given to the column of air by the proportions of the body of the instrument through which it passes. The sound of the saxophone is not the result of an ordinary acoustic mechanism. The body of the instru- ment, shaped externally like a conical tube, takes in its interior a decidedly complex geometrical form, based on the properties of the parabola. Adolphe Sax's constructive work was immense, and we owe to him most of the copper instruments used in orchestras to -day.

A 120,000 pound master truck scale of the plate -fulcrum type, used for weighing railroad trucks, was re- cently installed and housed on the Chicago belt line in Chicago by the United States Bureau of Standards, says a Science Service bulletin. Since the scale has a sensitivity to one- tenth of a pound and so is accurate to the millionth point under full load, the Bureau believes that it will do much for standardisation in heavy weighing. The scale is so sensitive that the atmospheric barometric pressure causes different registration of weight for one object. It is the purpose of .the Bureau to have different railroads bring their different type cars to this scale, have them weighed, and then send these cars back to the scales of the railroad for a checkup of differences. In this way a standard weight can be estab- lished and maintained from coast to coast for the first' time.

Here is an amusing child story from the other side of the herring pond: Little Miss Hastings, aged 10, was caught stealing sugar and sent to bed without supper. Her father, a clergyman, was away on a parochial trip and returned late in the evening. "Mama, I want to see daddy." There was no response from below. "Please let daddy bring me a drink of water." When that failed, a small girl in a white nightie stood at the head of the stairs and said with dignity: "Mrs. Hastings, I am a very sick woman, and I must see the rector at once." That fetched daddy. --London Post. .a Reading -Room for Tots. The Cfharlottenburg quarter of Eerlin now possesses something un- usual, namely, a reading - room for children only.
