NerViline," writes Mrs. E. P. Lamontagne from her home near We- ta,skawin Alberta "In this far -away section, far away froxii a doctor or druggist, ()Very family needS a good supply of liniment.- Nerviline is the beet of all., It destroys every pain, but never, burns. We use Nerviline in a score of ways, If it's rheuma- tism, aching bank, pain.in the side, sciatica or editneck,—you can laugh at them if you have lots of Nerviline handy. For earache, toothache or cramps I don't think anything could act more quickly. For a general all- round pain remedy I, can think of no- thing more valuable and speedy to cure than Nerviline." The above letter is convincing—it tells bow reliable and trusty this old- -time remedy is. Nerviline for forty years has been a household word in Canada. Scarcely a home in Canada you can find without Nerviline. Every community has its living examples Of the wonderful curative properties of Nerviline which will cure pains and aches anywhere in the joints or mus- cles. It's penetrating, soothing, warming and safe .for young and old to use. Get the large 50c. family size bottle; it's the most economical. Small trial size 25c, at any dealer's anywhere.

Many have puzzled themselves about the origin of evil. I observe there is evil, and that there is a way to escape it; and with this I be- gin and end.—John Newton. Justice is itself the great standing policy of civil society; and any emi- nent departure from it, under any circum.stance, lies under the suspi- cion of being no policy at all.— Burke. If a man be gracious and courte- ous to strangers it shows he is a citizen of the world, and that his heart is no island cut a from other lands, but a continent that joins to them.—Bacon. There is an idea abroad among moral people that they should make their neighbors good. One person I have to make good—myself.

Of all the instincts with 'which human nature ie. endowed the, fight- ing instinct is the keenest and the oldest, and all' the habits -taught or enforced by education, by law or by custom are but curbs .upon it, If; for the sake of argument, we put the ageof man upon theearth at a miLlion,years, then for at, least 990,- 000 years the two great instincts— the fighting and the social --were rigorously selected. It was the fighters, in bands, clans, tribes or• nations, who lived -be the tale, the best and the bravestof the war- rior races who survived to earry on the rate. Compared- with these aeons of 'evolution daring which the fighting instinct was selected the most ancient of civilized • periods was but the day before yesterday. Need we then wonder that even af- ter some 2,000 years of civilian edu- cation the fighting man lies latent beneath the thickest strata of con- tinuou.sly and laboriously acquired habits/ The civilian responds So readily to battle conditions because he sheds habits and reverts to his an- cestral type. It has taken him years to acquire the rudiments of his era% trade or profession, and all the social etiquette of his class. It may take him months to learn to drill or to shoot straight. But the lust of battle lies at the roots of his nature, and fires his blood in a mo- ment of time. It would be difficult to recognize in a fierce and ragged warrior charging the guns.the suave young solicitor of a week or so ago, who thought in six-and-eightpences and was anxious about the set of his tie; yet, after all, this is the real man, and the other was but the mask he wore,. a mask of education, of habits, of tmidity. 0 ltinard'e Liniment Co., Limited.

Commerce, Colonies and Trade, Will Do Lost to Iler. • Signor Pantaleoni, a leading Italian economist, examining the probable financial situation of the belligerents at the end of the war, considers that Germany and Aus- tria, whether vanquished or vic- torious, will be ruined. 'Unless Germany destroys the British fleet, Germany will have lost hercolo- nies,her predominant commercial position in China and her 'trade with Ainerica. Great Britain will be all right in any case, unless her fleet is de- stroyed. She will have German trade and German colonies. Her mines and factories will beunin- jured. She will be a still great colonial power, and also a great military power as soon as her army is ready. ' 11. Originator of the Red Cross.

I walked through the woodland mea- dows, Where sweet the thrushes sing, And found on a bed of mosses A bird with a broken wing; I bound up its wound, and each morn- ing • It sang its old sweet refrain— But the bird with a broken pinion Never soared so high again. I 'saw a young life broken By sin's seductive art, And, touched witb a tender pity, I took him to my heart; He llved .with a noble purpose, And struggled not in vain— But.the bird with a broken pinion Never soared so high again. But the bird with a broken pinion Rept another from the snare, And the life that sin had stricken Saved another from despair; Bach loss has its compensation, There's healing'for every pain— But the bird with a broken pinion Never soars so high again. But ihe soul that trusts in Jesus Is saved from every sin, And the heart that fully trusts him Shall a crown of glory win: Then come to the dear Redeemer, He'll cleanse you from every stain; By the grace which he freely giveth You shall higher soar again. —M.

An Englishman, who has just re- turned from France, •tells how, making his way by the banks Of the Aisne in an .atteMpt to take Cigar- ettes to the troops, he came across a solitary 'gr.ave near Clibisy-au- Bad. Twice he passed it, and his attention was arrested by the fact that kindly hands each day strewed fresh flowers over ib. On the pon- toon bridge near by aF4rench de- tathinent was keeping Ignard, and the soldiers explained that the lone- ly graVe was the last resting place of an .English soldier Who, quite ,alone, had there fought his last - fight till overwhelmed by numbers. During the great retreat he had strayed from his comrades and fallen exhausted from fatigue. lin able to find them he took up his quarters in an abandoned carriage, but thirty-six hours later -the Ger- mans appeared on the other side of the Aisne and fired at him. Un- deterred by the fact that he was utterly alone he replied, and such was his determination and .accuracy of aim that, the villagers declared, he accounted for six German °a- cers, one of them a general, before he fell under a volley. The French buried him where he had fought, erected a cross, and in honor of his gallantry laid- fresh flowers each clay on his grave. Standing beside it uncovered they told how the soldier died a soldier's death, and then showed the inquirer the ruined carriage, in which the shot marks bore testi- mony to the fierceness of the fight. At the Mairie a certificate was issued that there was buried on September 10th, 1914, David M. Kay (3,854), of the 5th Lancers.
