The advantage is all with a girl in early yotah. How- ever huinble her sphere, she is likely to have h&j- hour of glou.

Timber Suitable for Fibre Silk I, Women will soon lie wearing dress- es and hose "made of "silk" from the forests of British Columbia. •A group of iindustrialists has discovered that the timber of the Western province is admirably suited for the production of rayon silk. This fibre silk is gra- dually displasing real silk in favor. At the present time a large proportion Of :the women of both Canada and the 'United ,States are wearing fibre silk hose rather than those manufactured from tlic real artiele, Silk hese are 'not diminishing in4/popularity, There- forethe fibre silk industry expand- ing, The discovery that British Col- lumbla timberis suited to the manu- facture of silk 'means that Canada is going to get a share of the profits that are accruing through the contin- ued demand for rayon silks, It also means that one more asset is added to Canada's natural wealth. —0— Another Sign of Spritig "Automobile Poker"' is the latest "sign of Spring" to reach these com- munities.

Police te Smarten Up By order of the perfect of police of Constantinople, the night watchmen of that picturesque and romatic city must shave their long, flowing beards crop their superabundant hair, discard their baggy trousers and loose clothes and turbans for' a garb more' nearly resembling regular police garb, and cast away their/iron-tipped-sticks for a regular policeman's "billy." .
