IT COSTS $290 TO BL BORN NOW In company with *e cost of living and the cost of dying, the cost of be- ing born is "high." The family Chet can have an addi- tion at less cost than $100 is' ex- tremely )ucky. Such a family must be one of those fine old-fashioned ones in which the ceremony is per- formed at home, and grandpa and Aunt Effie come fur a three weeks' visit, and the only murrey expended is the doctor's fee. It has been said that it is cheaper to have a baby burrs in hospital than at home. This, aceurding to a num- ber of correspondents, is no longer true. At home the expenses involved are a nurse for two weeks at $5 a day - 370, and the doctor bill, which is a variable quantity, dependent on the financial condition of the patient but said to run, ordinarily, from $50 to $100. The cost in the hospitals ales) varies. Nut including the public wards, it is possible to obtain a septi -private room (one containing two to three patients) for $22.50 areek. The period in hospital is usually two weeks. The other charges are $1.511 per day for the infant, and 35 for surgical supplies. This includes nursing, meals, all ordinary medi- cines, and brings the hospital bill to $7. Add to this the doctor's bill, and you have about the cheapest septi -private cost in Toronto. Semi -private rooms in the Termite General liuspital run from $3.50 to 04 per day; in Grace Hospital, $22.50 a w'f•ek. Private rooms at Crare Iiospi1,1 me from 530 to $40 a week; at the General from $33.25 to $56 (for pri- vate suite of three rooms;) and at the Wellesley, tin entirely private in- stitution, at $:10, $37.50, $42 and $49 a week. At Grace Hospital, the charges for the infant is $1.1.; a day; at the others, $ diet a day. Formerly, the liuspital did not supply any clothing for the baby, and the laundry work had to be arranged for by the patient- The charge of $1.50 a day, generally adopted in Toronto about lyear ago, covers the supply and aundering of the infant's clothes, as well 00 the general care of the baby. In 1914. a semi -private room at the Toronto General could be obtain- ed for $16.fiu a week. The cheaper'. [.env i- $24 5)) a week. That is only a 50 per cera, increase, then. in the cost of liuspital accommodation. while the rust of most outer me-um- niodation hart gone up 100 per cent. i1'; the sono• period. But the addition ,f the $1.:se charge for the bay. 010.5u n e, el:. brings that cheapest :e int- private res) at the general to S34.50 per week for maternity cases, whish brine the increase to one hundred per rent. .And these figure; arc generally true throughout the city. If the patient- in the private evarl desires the attendance of a privets, nurse, this adds 3:, a day, 1,1110 $1 a day to the hesnitatl for the nurse's meals, t.1 the hill. But the empley- rcent of private nurses is not so general novo, the superintendent of the Toronto General hospital sinr ing that the number of private' nurses had been greatly- reduced in the past year. What the doctor's fee is in a maternity case is not known. One well known young specialist in these cases eharg"q $100 to all for his conduct of the rase throughout. Thus the parents who desire to do the thing up in good style, retain- ing a private room in one of the big hospitals, employing a $100 special- ist and a day nurse privately en- gaged would budget as follows: Doctor Nurse ($5 plus 1 x 19) Room (at $40 a week) 80 Infants' charge 21 Surgical supplies , , 5 $290 $101) 84 Total MADE FORTUNE PLEASING CHILDREN A woman left suddenly with the burden of her own support and that of three children made a stock -taking survey of herself and her potentiali- ties Health considerable erable wily, no busi- ness experience," she mused.

"The right kind of furniture for children"s rooms," she answered, "Oh, the weary- hunts I bad for nursery furniture and really intelligent toys for my kiddies." The three, leaning against her knees or creeping about the floor, looked up by way of corroboration. "What a time mother had to find a desk low enough for Goldenhead to write on when he was two and a half!" she recalled. Goadenhead nod- ded. "And now Bruvver has it," he agreed.

Although most of us are familiar with the luminous dial, yet, as a correspondent points out, probably few of us know what makes it luminous or why on occasion it behaves so queerly. Per- haps you have looked at your watch shortly- after your train has entered a tunnel and have been astonished to find that the dial has ceased to be luminous. Perhaps you have kept an eye on it and found that it showed not a glimmer of light while your train was in the tunnel. Why should a dial be luminous at night and not luminous in n dark tunnel by day? The trouble is not with the dial but with your eyes. In sunlight the pupils of our eyes contract and shut mit part of the brightness; in dark- ness they expand and let in all the light they eon. But our pupils do not contract or expand instantaneous- ly; they take fifteen minutes or even more to go from their smallest to their largest size. At night most of us are usually in artificial light, which is seldom so strong as daylight, and consequently our pupils have expand- ed a good deal. When we put out .the light, therefore, our pupils do not have to expand far to enable us to see well in the dark. When on the other hand we plunge from broad daylight into a railway tunnel, our pupils must expand as far as they can if -tee are to see anything. As we have explained, that takes time - it takes more time than it takes to go through the ordinary tunnel. Scarcely anyone has gone into a theatre in the afternoon without won- dering why the place is so much dark- er than it is in the evening. Again, the trouble is with our eyes. The pupils are far more contracted when we go into the theatre from the sun- light than they are when we go into it from the twilight or from the light of the evening street. For a time, consequently, we see better in a 'theatre at night.

The amount of radium on any one dial cannot be measured except by the incredibly refined methods of modern science; but it is enough to make the dial luminous. A member of Congress once asked the chief of the Bureau of Standards in Washing- ton whether he thought he could take the "little end of nothing whittled down to u fine point and use ,it to poke the pith out of a mouse's whis- ker." "Oh," replied the scientist with a grin,"that would be very coarse work, very course indeed!" 'The radium used in making lumin- ous paint may aniount in a year to a whole grain. Even that is really a heavy drain in our tiny supply. Luck- ily, science has discovered a substi- tute in mesothorium, a by-product in the manufacture of incandescent gas mantles. COURTESY IN THE DENTIST'S CHAIR When an unhappy Anglo-Saxon with a violently aching tooth visits a dentist his mind is usually not much set on ceremony. Not so with the polite Japanese. An Englishman while in Kyoto went with an interpre- ter to a Japanese dentist. Having some knowledge of Japanese manners and customs, he duly removed his shoes at the door of the office and courteously sucked in his breath on being introduced to the dentist, a dapper little person in kimono and white seeks, whose breath -sucking and knee -rubbing were prolonged and ingratiating. "Dentist asks," said the interpre- ter, "will you honorably condescend to explain where trouble lies in 'hun- nrable tooth?" "1f the dentist will honorably deign to examine my left-hand lower molar," responded the victim, "he will find that it requires filling; but for heaven's sake, Mr. Nakimura, ask hint to he careful how he uses his honorable drill, for I ant terrified to death, al that invention of the Evil One," Soon the '!11 began its work. Thr Englishman jumped from the chair. "'Pell the dentist, Mr. Nakimura, that he is honorably deigning' to hurt me very much with his honorable but utterly infernal drill!" "Dentist say1" responds Mr. Naki- mura soothingly, "if you honorably deign to reseat yourself in chair, he soon conquer difficulties in your hon- orable tooth," "Certainly, y, but dentist t must not give me honorable fits any more!" Dentist did, however; but he also did an excellent job, and the honor- able tooth of his honorable client, once filled, has to the dentist's honor re- mained honorably- intact until this day. A LONG DOG Surely anyone would say that the longest of long dugs is the German dachshund -that absurd little beast with elongated body and short bow- legs that lend themselves so readily to caricature, and that yet are suf- ficently farcical without it. In fact, doubtless, the dachshund must bear away the palet for longitudinal can- .ifie extension. But, employed merely as figure of speech, the collie of an ingenious West Highlander of Tober- mory had him beaten by several miles. It was in the early days of the telegraph, relates Miss Gratia Smith in a recent article on Scottish Men of Science, and the Highlander had just returned from a visit to some cousins in Glasgow, where he had been introduced to the new scientific marvel. His fellow townsmen were deeply interested in his account of it, but at first they were a good deal Puzzled. In answer to their inquiries he vouchsafed an illuminating smile. "Weel, now, it's no easy to ex- plain wat ye'll no be understaudin'," he told them condescendingly, "but I'll try to tell you what it's like. If you could stretch my collie dog free Oban to Tobermory, an' if you wass to clap its head in Oban, an' it wag- git its tail in Toberntory, or if I wads to tread on its tail in Tober- mory, an' it squaked in Oban -that is what the telegraph is like!" THE OFFICIAL MIND The officialmind is known to be peculiar. According to the Washing- ton Evening Star, a shipment of 15 tons of jack rabbits dressed and frozen for use as food recently caused a peculiar quarrel between French custom 'house officers on the one hand and the American shipper• and the / officials of the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce on the other. It seems that French law forbids anyone to import hares lest the do- mestic breed be affected for the worse. When eighty-five crates of common American jac rabbits, billed for ship- ment as jack rabbits, arrived at a French port some sagacious customs officer remembered the old law and would not let them in. The point was that the animals were hares. It did not make any difference, apparently, that the animals were dead. The taw said that hares were not to be imported into France, and the law must be observed. Reams of correspondence between the American shipper and the French customs authorities followed. The shipper contended that the animals were jack rabbits, and the French customs authorities contended with equal heat and finnnes(t that the ani- m,ala were hares. The case was finally brought before the higher authorities, who consulted various experts. After dissecting the anim•als,a French professor pronounc- ed them not hares but rabbits. Then the French attorney -general, review- ing the case at length, decided that the law was never intended to apply to jack rabbits, whether alive or dead and frozen, and that the animals might be imported. =rsr INCORPORArTED 1855 Capital and Reserve 39,000,000 Over 130 Branches The Molsons Bank i1 The Molsons Bank wants every farmer to feel that he has a real friend in the Manager, that he will receive, a hearty welcome and can safely discuss with him his money needs.
