Comfortable Surroundings in English Internment Camps. In the Wittenberg camp a thousand typhus patients, prisoners of war, were abandoned by their German guards. The supplies for the hospital were passed in on a trolley, worked by winches at either end, that there should be no contact between the prisoners and the outside world, says Jane Anderson in the London Daily News. When I visited St. Mary's Institute, a British internment camp, where England houses 750 German subjects, I found that the prisoners are pro- vided with workshops, with recreation grounds, with reading -rooms, with every facility which will promote their comfort and well-being. A maitre d'hotel, a prisoner, is in charge of their cuisine. St. Mary's Institute differs in no vital point from other such intern- ment camps in England. A large building with many windows is placed in the centre of some well-planned grounds; a stone wall encircles it. In the little plaza before the central doors of the tall building there is a fountain. To the right and left there are two enclosures, with paved walks and trees and benches. In the shadow of the wall there are flower -beds, blight with flowers, and the white drive -way is bordered by a gipped hedge. There are every- where: space and sunlight. A Happy Thought. A member of a fashionable church had gone to her pastor with the com- plaint that she was greatly disturbed by one of herd neighbors. "Do you know," she said, "that the man in the pew behind ours destroys all my devotional feelings when he tries to sing? Couldn't you ask him to change his pew?' "Well," answered the pastor, re- flectively, "I feel a little delicacy on that score, especially as 1 should have to give a reason. But I tell you what I might do—I might ask him to join the choir!' e;. ,Attractive Automobiles. "So you are in the market for an autoniabile ?" "Yes," answered the man who likes to attract attention. "Any particular make?" "No; I merely want ono that will snake people turn round and stare at me when I pass." "Oh, you don't need a special type for that.

In addition to de- stroying an average of 23,000,000 in property value. in Canada each year, fire caused the death of 141 persons last year. The home is built to protect our loved ones, and we want to do every- thing to insure absolute protection to those who live in it. That rubbish heap in the attic, storeroom' or basement is a menace to your household, because there is al- ways a possibility of fire starting in it, and it may start when least , ex- pected. Consider what might happen, and then, without delay, eliminate the menace of the rubbish heap. Itow to Keep Yourself Looking Young.

Even Christian Names of Allied Origin Must Go in Saxony. Saxony is one of the most patriotic States in Germany. Having removed foreign words from their hotels and 'eating houses, their barbers' shops, theatres, and milliners' establishments the Dresden authorities have turned their attention to Christian names, and have begun an agitation which is sure to spread t6 other cities. It has been noted with pain that a very large number of people have Christian names borrowed from other countries. In peace no reasonable ob- jection could be urged to this prae- -tice, but at the present time for Ger- man women, men, and children to' be obliged to go through life saddled with a name which is not German, and which is closely identified with a belligerent country, is intolerable. Accordingly, good Saxons have been notified that those persons with for- eign. Christian names who desire to get rice of them, and adopt instead sound Gorman names, may do so, the civil authorities giving them every legal facility, and removing all ob- stacles from their path, " Among the navies considered undesirable are; Harry, James, John, Ivan, Rene, Jules, Gaston, Margot, Claire, Daley, Olga, Vera, Renee, Gabrielle, Sylvia, The officials at registry offices aro instructed to draw the attention of parents registering their children with foreign Christian names to the desirability of choosing a German name, and only to enter foreign names when the parents absolutely insist. 4e - That Child..

The Way a Man May Have Something ' When Oid Age Creeps Upon Him. As a means of preventing poverty and as a method by which families deprived by death of the providing member may not become objects of charity, there has never in the world been anything devised which equals the power for good as a•"vvell-nlanag- ed life insurance company. Life insurance as developed to -clay is of the greatest economic value. It is the bonding together of many men, and the paying in of certain sums by each, to minimize the financial loss experienced by other members of the company. Life insurance in the beginning was solely for protection, but variations in the different forms which exist to- day have been brought forth to meet the demands of the public, as they arose from time to time, but we be- lieve the farther a company varies. from the primal idea—namely protec- tion—the less is its power for good. As an investment we have nothing to say against it, and the vast accu- mulations of surplus which the dif- ferent companies have made and which they hold for policyholders speaks for itself, but the principle of making provision is often Lost sight of in the attempt to create an asset, at a future date, for a person's own benefit. It is a curious thing that no mat- ter how badly a man may need life insurance, he has a tendency to side- step it until he is finally caught, and, as has been aptly said, some men get Life insurance to -day much in the same manner as they get religion. His emotions must be appealed to, and he often takes the step in a moment of enthusiasm; generally he is pleas- ed with himself afterwards, and if he is a right-thinking and a proper business man he seldom or never lapses his policy. In going over the daily press week by week and year by year, we see the probates of wills of many people, and we are often astounded by the small- ness of the estate, if any, to take. care of those left behind, and in many cases we find that the principal asset, when any, is usually a life insurance i policy taken out by the breadwinner. The building of an estate at the present time, or even at any time, is a tedious and long-drawn-out mat- ter. It is not generally known that fully 95 per cent. of the people who enter business fail during some time or gether. . , Neither' le it generally known that fully ' 9 r per ceiiteaef' the public, when they attain advanced age, have little or nothing to live upon. .If even asmall fortune is to be accumu- lated it must be wisely and intelli- gently managed, and when people are so busy, as they are to -day, endeavor- ing to make ends meet, they have not much time at their disposal to look into investments. By putting aside a small sum year- ly, as one's means permit, the mo- ment the first .payment is made on a life insurance policy an estate is created of the face value of the policy, and if a man would only continue to add to this, in the best years of his earning capacity, he would have some- thing when old age creeps upon him which would be security against many of the troubles he might. have to meet, and if he has this sum at his disposal when he comes to advanced age he will have many people anxious to give him the comforts to which he is entitled. NATURE GUARDS' SECRETS. Centuries of Study Yield Little to Moon. Greenwich, England, observatory was founded by Charles II. mainly for the purpose of investigating the move- ments of the moon in the interests of navigation, but though generations of astronomers have in the intervening two and a half centuries been working at the problem, the moon has not yet been amenable to their mathematics, The astronomer royal, in his report of the work at Greenwich during the last year, calls attention to the increasing- ly big deviation between the calculated position of the moon in the eky and its real position as shown by the Greenwich, observations, This deviation has lately been in' creasing in a serious Planner, the er- ror last yearbeing more than 12 tilnoe as large as it was 20 years ago, the average annual increase amounting in the two decades to half a second of aro in longitude. The cause of the failure of astronomers to make the moon amenable to their exact teethe- nnatics, based on the dynamical laws of gravitation, Is believed to be sante attraetive force of which we aro at present ignorant, though in all prob- ability one factor is the true shape of the earth, which still awaits accu- rate determination, Fortunately the chronometer and wireless telegraph have made seamen virtually independe eat of leerier observations in ascere taming their position in the trackless oceans. , 'Sees atztnard'fs edatutent its t9rp-la U* "I always agree with my husband."
