Aprominent physician is thus quot ed: Far many years the surgical pro , i'esson has realized the importance of germ infection in the causation and coup-lication of surgical affections. . It is only within the last few years that the •medical man has come to determine that in the so-called medi- cal affections infection is the causa- tive factor, notably in rheumatism influenza, and.sitnilar diseases. ; The'result of extensive research in- vetigations has proved beyond any doubt that direct infection is the cause of many more numerous and serious conditions, as disease of the heart muscle (inyocarditis), of the structure of the kidney (nephritis , and very recently the evidence is conclusive that ulcers of the stomach and intes- tine adjacentto it, diseases of the gall bladder (even without gallstones) are caused directly by infection. The comrnbn source of such infec- tion, the central foctis, is very often in the tonsils or teeth. Many of us older ones, who have spent considerable moneyfor dental work—fillings, bridge-work,caps; etc, —now are shown by the . up-to-date dentist that there are unsuspected pockets of pus about the roots of our to eth. Muchprevio us work, thought to be so perfect, bas to be undone and radical measures taken:,, to eradicate the dangerous foci of infection. ••Of course, acute attacks of diseases known to be bacterial in origin' cause the modern doctor to search out the cause, but those more obscure` corer ditions of "poor health" or ."general debility" that are thought to be the necessary attendant of middle age have been passed over with little study, and medical treatment has been limited to "tonics,",, rest;: change of • scene, etc., when really the cause of such impaired physical vigor was due to infected tonsils, Rigg's disease- or pus foci •ixr `the. roots of the teeth. Re m val of the cause automatically cures the effects. Hence the necessity ,for careful and regular attention 'to` -teeth and throat'. Acute Rheumatism. Rheumatic fever, although serious and painful. enough, is not feared as it used to be. We have discovered that salicylate of soda has a specific action in this disease; it relieves the pain, reduces the fever and shortens the attack. The great danger in rheumatic fev- er is its tendency to attack the heart. In former days it was almost always the case that a patient rose from an attack with a permanently damaged heart. But if the salicylate treat- ment is begun early enough and pur- sued perseveringly, that unfortunate complication may usually be warded off. In other respects, the treat- ment is that suitable to any acute fever, except that since there is no fear of infection for others; it is not necessary to isolate the patient. On the other hand, the pain is so intense, and the patient is in such dread of a clumsy hand or a jarring footstep, that it is best to keep him• virtually isolated while the attack is at its height. The patient should have the largest and best ventilated room that can he spared, and he should say in bed for some time after the actual fever has disappeared. There is often a good deal of sweat- ing, and that should be encouraged, for by that means much of the poison is carried from the system. The pati- ent should be given plenty of water, for that, too, helps to eliminate the • poison. The inflammation is very likely to move from joint to joint, and the treatment for the local pain of course moves with it. If the pain is severe, it may be necessary to protect the joint by a cage, so that the bedclothes shall not press upon it, or to wrap the joint in layers of cotton wool. Some- times hot fomentations give relief. There are few illnesses in which it is so necessary for the physician to be constantly Watchful. The salicylate of soda should be given only under his orders, since some people take it well, whereas others react badly. Moreover, only a trained physician can watch the heart intelligently and vary the treatment in accordance with its condition.—Youth's Companion. Unassisted.

With sugar.4iow selling. at, nearly $8.' pee' hundred, wholesale, and likely, to go considerably higher, there is an, excellent opportunity for fainters to make money by growing sugar beets, It is stated that in some parts of Western Ontario, there has been an increased acreage, amounting in some cases to 40 per cent. Sugar beet factories are paying a bonus of 50 cents per ton on contract prices for beets and the indications are that still higher prices will bo paid. • e Previous to the war, Great Britain and France secured the bulk of their beet sugar from . Germany, Austria and Belgium, although France had a considerable ael•eage of sugar beets under cultivation. Unfortunately Ithis land was located in the North of France and is now in the hands of the Germans.This means that - Great Britain and the otherallies must de- pend upon sugar, cane for their sup- ply, which has resulted in ' the sharp advances. Ontario in' normal times has 20,000 acres under beet` sugar cultivation, producing, about 8,QQ0,o00 ,bushels per year.

The red crown signifies "the field of blood" of the same great fight. When Constantinople falls, and their here- ditary enemies are finally driven out of Europe, then, and not until then, will the Montenegrins remove the black border and wear the kapa all red. On the red crown, in one corner, are five semi -circles in gold. These have a double significance. They symbolize first the five., centuries that have elapsed since Kossovo- was fought,, and, .secondly, the fiye colors that the Montenegrins see in the rain- bow, the sign of hope that one day the glories of the old empire of the Czar Lazar will be restored.

Every Little Girl Taught to Play Guitar: and Arrange Flowers. Our Far Eastern allies, the Japan- ese,'have many 'charming customs. One, which Might very well be copied, has to do with Japanese girls. Every little. girl in Japan is taught two things -- one, how to arrange flowers most effectively; and the other, to play the guitar. Whenever you' enter a Japanese home you will hear the tinkling of the guitar from some room or other. So fond are our allies of music, in- deed, that they rarely take a meal in their own homes without someone playing bo thorn. If it is not one of the little daughters of the family' who plays, it is a hired "singing girl," who conies in for the time being. These singing girls are to be found :everywhere in Japan, and their services are always in great demand: While the family are ' eating she' chants'or sings a song of flowers, pr relates one • of the many legends of the East;all, the time sounding. her guitar.
