The other day I met a young fellow who had been on active service .dur- ing the war. He related to me an experience he had during his Bourse of training in Can'ad'a. I shall tell it d in his own words: "After two or three months of route marching, the soles of my shoes, became so much worn that through them, my feet could feel every small stone upon which I stepped. I could not put on my other pair of shoes, for some person or persons unknown bac) relieved me of the said articles. All I had left in the line of footwear was a pair of deck shoes which were "taboo" on route marches. So, 'in my predicament I went to the Srgt.- Major and told him of my trouble, saying that I would like very much to have the camp -cobbler repair those shoes; and I added mentally perhaps I'll get off that route march to -day. -Well, the Sergt. Major said for me to get the shoes fixed and that I should put on my deck. shoes and help the cook while waiting . for the repairs. "I took the footwear to the cobbler, but that gentleman told me he had no leather soles. He added!, however, that a supply would come along in about three weeks, and advised me that I must wait till it came, because ,cobblers were not allowed to buy leather in town. "I was somewhat put out, but I left the, shoes with the cobbler and went down to the cook house. The cooks was cutting off thick pieces of cow and were getting it ready for dinner. A bright idea struck me and I said: "Sarge, let me have two slices of that. I don't want to eat it." "Seeing that I did not want to eat, lee readily gave me the two pieces. I .carried them up to the cobbler, and I said: "There, old top, nail those on the soles and hob -nail them." The cobbler did as directed. "Then that evening I went down Street. I was going along at' a good walk when I noticed some folks look- ing at me pretty closely. Soon I saw others eyeing me with astonishment. At last one fellow laughed out loud, pointed at me and cried: "What's the matter with your feet?" Then I gave a glance around, an'd, oh hor- ors! about fifty clogs were following along and sniffing at my tracks." As we were parting, the young fellow told me that he has the same shoes yet, and the soles` are still in good order. - BEE CULTURE AID TO SUGAR PROBLEM The shortage and high price of sugar have brought about a golden opportunity for the beekeeper, whose operations heretofore have been con- fined to littlle more than side issues to provide a tempting viand' for the Dome table. Honey is the one greatest substi- tute for sugar. For the last few years it has attained an importance as a foodstuff not enjoyed since the discovery of sugar, with the result that thousands of persons all over the country have started bee opera-. tions, many of them on a commercial scale, whose crops now run into 'thousands df dollars annually. From a minor industry apiculture has sprung into considerable prominence, which position it deserves because it .conserves a valuable food product that would be lost to us were it not for the honey bee. Not only is the bee a valuable food producer in itself, but it is one of the most beneficial agents in cross- polinating the blossoms of plants, thereby assisting very substantially in the -.bountiful production of our more staple crops. • Many plants would fail to get fruit were it not for the pollen carried by bees. 'mate details which insure thrifty lives. In choosing a location in which to raise- bees on a commercial, scale it is imperative to first study the re- sources of the country,, because while bees can be kept virtually anywhere, they will not prove profitable in local- ities where the plant life does not yield nectar in large quantities and for a considerable period each year. The ,beekeeper who contemplates a few colonies in the back yard need not bother about ' such ".particulars, since almost any fertile section will provide ample nectar for bees in limited numbers. In selecting a site for the hives bear in mind that bees require a cer= tain amount of protection against high winds and severe storms, extreme cold and heat. An orchard or site near shade trees with some sort of a natural wind break to the north, makes a desirable spot for the apiary. • If trees are lacking, a trellis or arbor of vines may be substituted; a board fence makes a good windbreak. Bees like open spaces in front of their hives, therefore, sod ground which is kept mowed is best, They will not disturb passerby or other live stock unless intruded upon, con- sequently, the unfrequented location is to be &sired. The hives should be far enough apart to permit free manipulation on the part of the 'care- taker, and so that the bees are not likely to return to thewrong hive. The foregoing points are suggest- ed byway of making ideal conditions, it 'being well understood, however, that many colonies are kept on house- tops and in congested areas, where conditions are the reverse of a natural habitat. The aim should be to make the location as advantageous as pos- sible, Whip bees can be housed in boxes, hollow logs and all sorts of makeshift shelters,.it pays to provide a standard type of hive with movable frames, which can be made or bought at small expense. Not only are the bees thus made more comfortable . and, therefore, their product is greatly im- proved by proper housing. Honey is graded largely, in fact, almost exclusively on appearances,. which is the strongest argument in favor of adequate equipment. / The hive should be raised a few inches above the ground so that the bottom will not rot, and so that other insects and creatures will not prove a nuisance. Suitable stands orfounda- tions can be made from bricks, con- crete blocks, drain tiles or other available material. Where ants are a pest, special hive supports are sometimes necessary. Italian bees are probably the most widely used, though the question of race is not so important as purchas- ing a strain of vigorous stock, free from disease. Selected breeding ,queens, which really constitute the mainstay of aapriculture, may be ob- tained and' introduced in place of the original queens, and in a short time the workers will all be of the same race as the introduced queens. Whenever possible it i a good) plan for the beginner to purchase bees that are already domiciled in, a particular hive, and to make this the nucleus of his operations. Italian bees are said to have better tempers than most other races. In any event they ,are proved vigorous workers and good honey -gatherers, defend) their hives well and are bred to -a higher state of perfection than most rases. The workers are dis- tinguished by five yellow bands on the front portions of the five front segments of the abdomen. Bees are among the most accom- modating creatures in the world. cles subject to strain are undernour- ished and you may have muscular rheumatism or lumbago. if your blood is thin and you begin to show symptoms of any of these disorders, try building up the blood with Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and as the A THUNDERSTORM. flow It Appears to a Man In an Airship, -Have you ever been in the air to watch a thunderstorm glow? If you. were merely on the ground looking up, then yousee only the bottom of it. The airman is the one who sees just what is happening in a thunder- storm, says Popular Mechanics, A few hours before . the sk.y was .perfectly clear. All at once a few white patches become visible to the eye, a,ud if they quickly begin to dot, the whole sky, it is a warning sign. Each fluffy cloud represents the point where moisture rising from the earth has begun to condense. The rapid formation of the clouds means un- even heating of the surface of the earth and the presence of lots of moisture in the air. The clouds grow together, forming a continuous roll- ing mass of dense vapor, cutting off the flyers' view of the earth. So far the storm has only been threatening. - The clouds have spread sideways as far as they can; now they begin to grow heavier. The heated air from the earth below, pushes through the heavy layer and bulges it upward. Higher and higher it is Pushed while more and more mois- ture condenses, and this great. bulg- ing mass of Vapor, _sometimes three or four miles high, has become a thunder cloud. Its bulging tops are called thunder peaks or thunder heads, and they are• responsible for the lightning, the heaviness of rain- fall, and the hail we sometimes have in mid -summer. The energy of a thunderstorm is amazing. A single great cloud may contain billions of pounds of water vapor. The flashes of lightning from clouds to clouds are sometimes twenty miles in length, and when we stop to think that it takes a current of 15,000 volts pressure to produce a spark an inch long, we can only won- der at the immense amount of elec- tricity involved in a single flash. Sometimes the wind from a thunder- storm, or the squall, as it is called, is violent enough to level trees and small buildings, and is improperly called a tornado. There is a big dif- ference. A tornado is a violent whirl- pool of air that sweep across the country and twists off trees and roofs in its path. The wind from a thun- derstorm blows straight away from the storm and never twists. Broadly speaking there are three general stages in the development of a thunderstorm: There must be strong currents of moist air rising from the earth, as indicated by the appearance ofe the white patches of cloud. This condition must continue until the sky is covered. And lastly, the force of these upward currents must be great enough to push the clouds up into thunder heads. A thunderstorm then results. • FREQUENT HEADACHES A Sure Sign That The Blood Is Watery and Impure. People with thin blood are much more subject to headaches than full- blooded persons and the form of anaemia that afflicts growing girls is almost always accompanied by headaches, together with disturbance of the digestive organs. _, Whenever you have -`constant or recurring headaches and pallor of the face, they show that the blood is thin and your efforts should be di- rected toward building up your blood. A fair treatment with Dr. Williams' Pink Pills will do this effectively, and the rich red blood made by these pills will remove the headache. More disturbances to the health are' caused by their blbod than most people have any idea of. When your blood is impoverished; the nerves suffer from lack of nourishment, and you may be troubled with insomnia, neuritis, neuralgia or sciatica.

Good Health and Middle -Aged Man. - There was a time when 21 was the age/ for the young man to marry, and at forty he was expected to have a good-sized family, accompanied by the sense of a life well lived and the arrival at the period when .men "set- tle down" and let the "young folks" have their chance. After 20 a woman was an "old maid" or perilously near that stage of life's game. Scientists have changed `all that and now a man is young at sixty and no one attempts to guess the modern woman's age. The magic key, of course is good health and in the current issue of Forbes Magazine, Dudley A. Sargent tells how by a system. of simple exer- cises a person may keep healthy when busy. "All that is necessary," says this authority, "to keep a man past middle life in good mental and phy- sical condition is the daily use of all the large muscles of the trunk and limbs in systematic course pf body flexions and extensions." There ought, thus to be fewer "tir ed business men," and there will be if all business men look carefully to their own health. There' oughtto be fewer breakdowns; and there can be fewer. There ought to be, and there can be, an end to the notion that many middle-aged men and women have about themselves and that many others have about middle-aged men and women, that they are "old" at forty, that they must then oro there- abouts give•way to the young. A New Sort of Cannon. Firing a test shot with its barrel full of water was the unusual per- formance of an improved form of gun for shooting a life ` line- over a wrecked vessel, in recent official trials, says Popular Mechanics Maga- zine. A one-piece shell containing powder and projectile gives the new gun a great advantage over the old muzzle -loading type. The barrel may be regulated to elevations of thirty, forty, -five, sixty or eighty degrees, and its range is 1,700 feet. The batrel is readily carried by one man, and the one-piece carriage has a pair of wheels for easy hauling. The firing mechanism is actuated bya lanyard, and the life line, attached to the pro- jectile, unwinds from the centre of the reel without kinking. A Clever Woman. ' Mlle. Marie Prodhom, who has been appointed director of the Bank of Geneva and will sign the notes and scrip issued by that bank, is only 28 -years of age. Shb proved herself an excellent financier during the war, and is the first woman in Eu- rope to hold such an important posi- tion. There are now two judges, nine barristers, three engineers, and a number of university professors and doctors of the fair sex in Switzerland. Fond of Ornaments. Burmese men' and women delight in ear ornaments. The lobe of the ear is bored with a hole of astonish- ing size, and in it various articles are worn --pieces of wood, jewels or rolls of solid gold or silver. When no ornaments are in the ears, the men often put their cigars or any other small articles in frequent use, through them, and the women use the holes as bouquet holders. There still exist in the French re- public five grades -of nobility. Resembling a soldering iron, a gas heated tool has been invented for cut- ting glass.- _ Bring the boy here for his Summer Clothing.
