In August of the same year she came to Canada with her husband and settled in the Township of Hib- tert, a short distance west of Mitchell, on the same spot where she lived un- til her death, and was married sixty- five years in May.

(Continued Next Weeki) DON'T KILL PAIN WITH DRUGS. Search For Its Cause and Have That Properly Treated: inels that watch to t something withim one wrong, pain is us, although its im- uently overlooked s well as laymen. n expression of re- bjectionable stimuli; er desirable it may be to get yid of it is far more im- portant to find, nd cure its cause. The old tim family docter's first thought when ailed to a patient in pain was to s other it by means of powerful thugs. This was some-. times useful le tiding a patient over a silent illness!, which was bound to right itself, Wet it was worse than useless in chriinic ailment because it substituted far the malady in ques- tion a far wore disease—namely, the opium habit, It was exactly as though a railroad inspector on find- ing a red lantern on the track should throw a coat over it and go on his way. The patient was satisfied when the pain was lulled, but. in this an important dartger -signal was disre- garded and nature's call for perman- ent relief remained unanswered. In appendicitis, for instance, it used to be the custom to "kill pain" by administering large doses of mor- phine. We now know that this dulls the patient's senses to a degree which makes diagnosis of peritonitis or other ,complications impossible and that a life may be lost because one of the most important symptoms is masked by drugs. It is interesting also to note how pain in appendicitis sets up a reflex action of the abdo- minal muscles. The muscles become hard and "boardy," nature attempt- ing to hold the appendix as if in a splint so that further injury may be impossible and conditions favorable to repair may obtain.

A remarkable incident, testifying , alike to the power of Freemasonry 1 and the seelendid devotion of a Cita Izen of Louvain, has been reported to me, *rites a special correspondent from Ostend, Belgium. At the time of the sack of the town the Germans -seized 50 men, whom they bound and told that they were going to be shpt. -The firing Party had already rais- ed their rifles to take aim when one • of the 50, a -Freemason, made one of the Masonic signs. The German officer in command of the squad was himself a Freemason, and just: as he was going to give the order tp fire he saw the sign, and recognized a "brother." 'He at once ordered the Freemason to leave the ranks, and told him to go away. "No," replied the citizen of Lou- vain, "my fellow -citizens are no more guilty than I am. If you are going to kill them, I shall not go away, and I shall be killed -with them." Touched by .this act of devotion, the officer ordered the release of the 50 unfortunate men, who thus owed their lives to the intervention of a . Freemason fellow -citizen. The Sin_ Of Trousers.

Sir Walter R from his South the early part o reported to his so ing party from hils ship had been at- tacked near the Mouth of a wonder- ful river by a swarm of women war- riors and he accordingly suggested the name "Amazon" for the stream. Now comes Dr. Algot Lange, the archaeologist, who believes he has discovered evidence of this lost tribe gescribed by Raleigh, a tribe where- in the burden of war and industry wail borne entirely by the females. Dr. Lange has ,just returned from a pro- longed voyage of investigation for the Brazilian Government, during which he discovered on the headwaters of the Boju, a tributary of the Allia Z011, a hitherto unknown tribe, the Arar- andewara Indians, a peaceable, semi - agricultural group of 100 or more stark -nude savages, who had never seen a white man before and stood in terror of the explorer and his party. "The most significant thing about the tribe," says Dr. Lange, "was the entirely Semitic character of the physiognomy. This was no resem- blance to which imagination was ne- cessary, but a striking likeness that could not be overlooked by the most rudimentary observer. It was as ap- parent in the handsome young men and women as in the old, and it gave me distinctly the sense of looking upon an Asiatic people." But the most interesting of Dr. Lange's discoveries were at the mouth of the Amazon, on a big, fiat island, browsed on by Nast herds of cattle in the dry season and washed over by the sea in the wet. This is the island clt Marajo, of about 120 by 100 miles. The Amazon, which is over 200 miles wide at this point, has bellt the is- land there from its mighty store of alluvial deposits, and the sea, fight- ing to hold its own, is underwashing the island, even as the river builds it. leiet, on returning merican voyage in the 17 th century, ereign that a land - "The island is never more than a few inches out of the water," Dr. Lange explains. "At high tide it shrinks considerably, and. when the Amazon is at flood no island is visible save tor the mounds.

BON. MARTIN BURRELL, Minister of Agriculture. The E e Needs -Many Foods In the past Grea Britain has imported immense quantities of these staple foods from Russia, France, Belgiu Germany and Austria-Hungary as shown by the following:— Average Imports Years 1910-1913 Wheat....... 28,439,609 bush. Oats.. 23,586,304 Barley. 15,192,268 Corn 7,621,374 Peas 703,058 Beans. 639,653 Potatoes...., 4,721,590 Onions— 271,869 Meat.... 26-,509,766 lbs. Eggs 121,112,916 doz. Butter and Cheese 91,765,233 lbs. The above mentioned sources of supply of staple foods are now, in the main, cut off as a result of the war. Greatilritain is looking to Canada to supply a large share of the shortage. Every individual farmer has a duty to perform. 46 El 14 14 66 65 tag -For information and bulletin' s write to Canadian Department of Agriculture, Ottawa, Canada Millions of bushels rather than millions of acres should be Canada's aim. That there is abundant reason to expect larger returns from the same area is conclusively shown when we compare the average production of the present time with the possible production. Note the following brief table which shows the average in. 1914 and possible production per acre. Average Possible Fall Wheat. a.. 20.43 52. Spring Wheat 14.84' 33. Barley.. a ..... 16.15 69. 91. 200. Oats. 36.30 Corn, Grain70. Corn Ensilage— (Tons)12. 19. Peas 15.33 37. Beans....; 18.79 50. Potatoeseh 119.40 450. Turnips 421.81 1000. By. "possible" is. meant the actual results which have been obtained by our Experimental Farms and by many farmers. These "possibles" have been obtained under intensive culti- vation methods and conditions not altogether possible on the average farm, yet they suggest the great possibilities of in- creased production. By greater care in the selection of seed, more thorough cultivation, fer- tilization, better drainage, the average could be raised by at least one-third. That in itself would add at least $1.501,000.,000 to the annual income of Canada from the farm. It would be a great service to the Empire, and This is the year in which to do it. :increase Your Live Stock Breeding stock are to -day Canada's most valuable asset. The one outstanding feature of the world's farming is that there will soon be a great shortage of Meat supplies. Save your breeding stock. Plan to increase your live stock. Europe and the United States, as well as Canada, ill pay higher.prices for beef, mutton, and bacon in the very near futare. Do not sadrifice now. Remember, that live stock is the only basis for prosperous agriculture. You are farming, not specu- lating. , 44-144.4,1•1114441==4,1---....1•••• Th We out °n assure, ate thelpirif- ll'r fyi et tha stn mar to te itt et all obc' BOILS ridiN111\13f oal f tiB iipiaistmitcf, e tric, Wood £ T.
