The Magic Garden.
Late in the afternoon of a dull
day when the Buil did not shine,
the children began the game of
the Magic Garden. It happened in
This way: Lauri looked out on the
snowy back yard, and said, "I
should like to have a fountain in
our garden, in the middle of a
ibathing place for the birds. The
bathing place ought to be round,
and the water from the fountain
Should come down gently; like the
rain."
"Oh, I'd • love it !" exclaimed
Mary Anna, "and I'.11 tell you what
I should like. I should like bird
houses in our garden. I should
like to have one shaped like a Swiss
chalet, and one„shaped like a. Jap-
anese pagoda.”
"I should like to have some rose-
bushes," said Laura, "with piuk
roses and white roses,"
"And," Mary Anna went on, "I
should like a path between the rose-
bushes, so that we could walk up
and down the path and smell the
roses.•"
"It is my turn !" :announced Lan-
ra. "And I want little pumps be-
side the rosebushes,'just like the
big pump on grandpa's farm, so
that children , could pump, and
pump,• and pimp' as long as they
wished; and 'besides, that would he
a good way to water the .rose-
bushes 1"
The thought of so many pumps in
a garden caused what Laura and
Mary Anna, enjoy most—a "laugh
ing time."
Before they were through play-
ing the game, the garden was an
enchanting place, where all kinds
of flowers bloomed„ and where the
biros ate crumbs from their hands;
it was a garden without caterpil-
Tars or bugs. There was a little
summerhouse in it, and a treasure
box of children's books. There was
even ,a' little river flowing through
the garden, on which floated tiny
canoes that never tipped over.
Once a great rhinoceros with a
horn on, his nose, stepped in • he
belonged to Mary. Anna; Ibut Laura
sent him' tramping back to the•jun-
glee- and then there was another
"laughing time." •
Since t, „tc hare.; day the - chil-
dren have played i::ie game of Magic
Garden over and over, whenever
the days were, dull' and rainy and
there seemed to be nothing else
to do.—Youth's Companion.
Tuo uGHTS FOR THE DAY.
Joy is the higher faculties of a
man's soul when it is brought up
to concert pitch.—Ward Beecher.
A lean or a woman who sacrifices
themselves for others may have
a hard fight for it, but they cannot
be unhappy.—Jowett.
Life is short. Let us not throw
any of it away in useless resent-
ment. It is best not to .be angry. It
'is next best to he quickly reconcil-
ed.—Dr. Johnson.
Most people think they are virtu-
ous merely Ibecau.se they are tame,,
and inoffensive. Tatneness is not a
virtue, it, is merely ,the absence of
a vice. -J. S. Blackie. '
We ,possess mysteriously a sort
of dual nature, and there -are few
truer triumphs or more delightful
sensations than to -obtain thorough
command of oneself.e-Avebury.
Look not mournfully into the
past, It, comes not back again.
Wisely improve the. present. It is
thine. Go forth to meet the shad-
owy future without fear and with
a manly heart.—Longfellow.
Nine -tenths of the good that is
done in the world is the result of
laws however wise, or of resolu-
tions however strong, but of the
' personal influence of individual
men and women, -Sir Samuel Chis-
holm.
Causes of Strange `Worries.
How many times have you heard
people say, "I know !something is
going to happen." They belong to
that class of humans who seem 'to
keep in a chronic state of worri-
ment for which there is no apparent
reason. Now,- when you hear a
person say the above quoted words,
make up your mind. that 'the cause
is usually not `something that is
going to happen," but something
that has actually happened, or is
happening, in the patient's own
system. It maybe a badly working
liver, a weak heart, or any of the
organs,, or, perhaps, some difficulty:
in the intestinal tract. The disor-
der may not give direct evidence of
its existence, but still be respon-
sible for this apparently causeless
worry.

SIX BA._NANAS A DAY.
Entire 'libes in African Jungles
Subsist on Thein.
Bananas are rich in nutriment,
and because of their heretofore
little cost they have been indulged
in extensively by the poor, declarers
a food expert. They would also be
more generally consumed if mothers
recognized how very much "meat"
there is contained in them.
In the jungles p£ Africa whole
tribes s.ubsist principally on bana-
nas; they are their staple food;
their bread,. in fact. A savage- will
carry 15 pounds weigiht on his head;
marching from sunup to !sundown
on a diet of six bananas a day.
Just think of it, only auk bananas a
.day, to sustain a man doing the
hardest kind of work, head portage
over the one -man -paths of the al-
most inaccessible jungles. And the
men are the hardiest creatures you
can imagine. As most of the Afri-
can products are transported to
the coast on the heads of men and
women, the: importance of a
strengthening diet is a great one,
and all big. trading factories ,and
governments allow their carriers
and soldiers six bananas a day,
three taken at night, when the
day's search is over. The savage
takes no breakfast; the latter is is
civilized institution. -

SOME HARD KNOCKS
Woman Gets Rid of habit.
The injurious action of tea and
coffee on the hearts. of many per-
sons is well known by physicians to
be caused by caffeine. This, is the
drug found by chemists in tea and
coffee.
A woman suffered a long time
with • severe heart trouble and
finally her doctor told hex she
trust give up coffee, as that was
the principal cause of the trouble.
She writes :
`,My heart was so weak it could
not do its work properly. My hus-
band would sometimes have to
carry me from the table, and it
would seem that I would never
breathe again.
"The -doctor told me that coffee
was causing the weakness of my
heart. He said I must stop it, but
it eeesned I could notgive it up un-
til I was down in bed with nervous
prostration.
"For eleven weeks I lay there
and suffered. Finally husband
brought home some Postum aazd, I
started new and right. Slowly I
govt well. Now I do not have any
headaches, nor those spells with
weak heart. We know it is Postum
that helped me. The Dr. said the
other day : `I never thou,glht you
would he what you arse.' I used
to weigh 92 pounds and now I
weigh 158.
"Possum must be prepared ac-
cording to directions on pkg., then
ib has a rich flavour and with
cream is fine."

SHORT VERSUS TALL. MEN.
Speaking at the Royal Sanitary In-
stitute, London, Dr. Pembrey contend-
ed that the mere measurement of legs
and weight as . a qualification for na-
tional service had had eta little day. It
was weight of brain' and proportions
of trunk that. counted. The short 'or
average man had more endurance,
more pugnacity, more responsive pow-
er than the average tall man, Quick-
ness of response came Pram the -short-
er .length of nerve; there was more
concentration of heart power. ;Elven
statistics of the present war showed
that "fine men do not resist disease
and wounds," so effectually asthe
shorter or more compaet men. In
marching and shooting and staying
powers the figures were all op the side
of the shorter n.en,
Good ;flints.
Even' in business it is well to be
fired with zeal. People who rule
the roost like to crow' about it. He
`who has a bee in his bonnet often
gets stung. Sonia people take bush-
els of pains to keep out of a peck
of trouble, People whn do things
by halves secure fractional re-
sults. It is natural for a man to
desire to stutter whenhe pro-
nounces his own doom. Conscience
may make cowards of us all, but ib
is the gallery, that makes a lot of
heroes. It is sheer nonsense to
claim that truth lies list the bottom
of a well. Truth never lies.

"When I was working around the
farm last winter, I had an attack of
inflammation," writes Mr. E. P. Daw-
kins, of Port Richmond. . "I: was weak
for a long time, but well enough to
work until spring. But something
went wrong with my bowels, for I had
to use salts or physic all the time. My
stomach kept sour, and always after
eating there was a pain and fullness,
and all the symptoms of intestinal in-
digestion. Nothing helped me until I
used Dr. Hamilton's Pills. Instead of
hurting, like other pills, they acted
very mildly, andseemed to heal the
bowels. I did not require large doses
to get results with Dr. Hamilton's
Pills, and feel so glad that I have
found a mild, yet certain remedy. To-
day I am well—no pain, no sour stom-
ach, a good appetite, able to digest
anything. This is a whole lot of good

WOMAN'S WORK IN WAR TIME.
Her Duties Arc Most Important
During the ' Crisis.
Many of us who .were born long
enough ago to. have seen the early
days of what is sometimes called
the Woman's Movement, are re-
garding with interest the many new
avenues of work which have been
opened up by the •wait. We cannot
fail to 'realize that many of the
places formerly filled by men will
now and in the near future be
filled by women—thise too, for the
saddest of reasons, viz., that many
thousands of the flower of our
young manhood will be killed in
battle, killed fighting for those
things which alone make life wortlh
living.
Now, however, one of our main
duties is to do what women have
always done,—look after those who
go forth to, and those who return
wounded, from battle, In this war,
the greatest the -world has ever
seen, the work which is- especially
our work is very great and will be
so until the war is over. The new-
est addition to our responsibilities
is the University of Toronto Base
Hospital, which will he going to
France about the middle of ,tAp•ril.
With this hospital to equip, as, well
as to keep supplied during the con-
tinuance of the war, our responsi-
bilities are much increased.
7lhe difficulties of establishing a
new hospital in an at present un-
selected place are evident, and
much unforeseen equipment may be.
found necessary when the 'hospital
is opened. For this, none of us, I
am sure, wish the staff, our repre-
sentatives, to be hampered, and
our wounded to suffer from an in-
sufficient 'supply of money to buy
necessary equipment.
Every woman in Canada will, I
ase sure, feel that she wishes to
contribute in money or time to this
work for our wounded; there is
work for all, and none of us wish
to be parasites or butterflies, Let
us then work with all our energies
for our "favorite child," following
the definition Credited to an old
Arab, who, upon being asked which
was his favorite child, replied:
.''The youngest until he is grown,—
the absent one till the return,---tlhe
sick one till he is well,"

OF DODD'S KIDNEY PILLS.
Alberta Lady Feels It • Her Duty

Kidney hills.
Faith, Alberta, April 5th (Spe-
cial).—"I nevem want to be without
Dodd's Kidney Pillls," so Isays Mrs.
Averon, one of t!he oldest and
most highly respected citizens of
tli,s place.
"I aan an old lady, sixty-eight
years of age," Mrs. Averon con-
tinues, "and had Kidney trouble
for twenty years. My heart both-
ered:'me, my muscles would cramp,
and 'my back ached. Neuralgia
was added to my troubles.
"Dodd's Kidney Pills are the
only medicine that have helped me,
and I cannot recommend. them too
highly. I feel it my ditty to tell
my' friends what Dodd's Kidney
Pills dad for me."
"Dodd's Kidney Pills are the
favorite remedy of the old folks.
They cure the Kidneys, which are
the first of the organs of the body
to feel the strain of years. By cur-
ing the Kidneys Dodd's Kidney
Pills ensure pure blood and pure

folks say "Dodd's Kidney Pills
make me feel young again."
Shares Our Every Pain.
God cares. His love for each one
of us is so deep, so personal, so
tender, says the Rev. J. R. Miller,
that He shares our every x pain,
every distress, every struggle.
"Like as a father pitieth his chil-
dren, so the Lord pitieth them that
fear Him," God is our Father, and
His• care is gentler than .a human
love. Much human care has no
power to help, but -when God cares
He helps omnipotently. Jesus said
that when His' friends would leave
Him alone yet He -would not be
alone—"because the Father is with
me." When human friendsthip
comes notwith any relief, then God
will come. When no one in. all the
world cares, then God Bares.

ISSUI 15—'15,
AN I1 TERES'1'ING CASE.
The diose supervision exercised
by the Interstate Commerce Com-
mission over the United States
railroads is illutitrated by the heavy
fine imposed -recently by the federal
courts on the Michigan Central
Railroad of .$24,000 for failing to.
collect dernurrage charges f,l'om the
National Fireproofing Company..
In the case of these demurrage
charges the unfortunate railway, is
sometiinles between the devil and
the deep sea; fox the shipper, par-
ticularly the large shipper, is of-
ten slow in paying, whereas the
watchful commission, -suspecting a
concealed rebate, is ever threaten-
ing punishment. A fine such as the
one just imposed will probably
force the railroads to insist on
prompt collections, and the Cana-
dian Board of Railway Commission-
ers may follow suit. Shippers who
have been storing their goods on
freight ears at the railroad's ex-
pense will then no longer be able
to escape payment by putting up
excuses or playing qn the fact that
they are good customers of the
raalxoad.
