' Any car owner who has attempted to wlnd his way through the intri- cacies of the Ontario motor laws will welcome with enthusiasm .the pro - prose( ,to codify and simplify the statutes govenesinc .motor vehicle traffic. in suggestion to the Legis- lature thisneeek that a small special committee of the house be struck to consolidate existing molar legis- lation, Hon. F. C. Biggs as much as admitted that the ;present arrange - anent of traffic laws is complicated enough to 'please a 'lawyer, but too cumbersome to be of any use to the average motorist. The Minister 'proposed that the committee zit during the recess and revise three acts now un the statute books: The Motor Vehicles Act, the Highways Travel Act, and the Loaded Vehicles Aot. He stated that amendments `'had been so extensive and so numerous during the past eight years that no ordinary motor- ist could hope to interpct the acts as they stand at present. To acid to the difficulties of enforcement, motor traffic has .tripled during the past four years. "There .is no idea of making any drastic changes in the existing law,' stated W. A. McLean, fepaty Min- ister of Highway's, when queried as to the significance of the proposal. "Traffic conditions have been chang- ing so rapidly during the past few years and the amendments have been so numerous in the effort to keep pace with these changes that the statutes are now in a very dis- jointed state. The ,proposal seeks merely to clarify the existing law so that the average mete:let can understand it." 1 PO SEAFORTH BRANCH, k ]ti . M; dQNr.,A Maunftger.

EGG LAYING RECORDS The Old Peeple's Home at Van- couver, B.

After Ten Long Years of Suffering HE SINGS THE 'PRAISES OF - DODD'S KIDNEY PILLS. Jules Labrosse, who had Bright's Dis- ease, Gravel, Dropsy and Dia- ' betel Tells of Benefit he got from Dodd'B Kidney Pills. Papineauville, Labelle Co., Quebec.

A variety of tests may be advisable for one who is not an expert judge of diamonds; and even One who .is, an imitation may leave .temporarily puz- zled so that some mechanical or phys- ics] test is •resorted to. The old test of cutting a piece of glass with the stone under .investigation is now re- versed, •though with an additional var- iation. A file takes the place of glass, and the rasping edge of the little tool is brought against the sparkling surface of the gem under suspicion. This is an attack no im- postor can survive for a single instant. No impression, of course, can be made on a genuine diamond. Another test even more severe con- sists of the following procedure:— The stone is covered with borax, heated and then, dropped into a re- ceptacle containing cold water. Glass or similar imitations will be shatter- ed, but a diamond comes through the ordeal unharmed. Cleopatra may have dissolved her pearls in vinegar so as to make a priceless drink, but the vinegar of that clay must have been exception- ally hard on .the lining of the Stomach if it could perform so astouding a' feat •But to -day your diamond (df it be spurious) can be readily dis- solved. Hydroelluoric acid will turn the trick for you. A genuinestone, of course, is immune to this test. There are two tests with water that are emeally interesting in demonstrat- ing whether or not you have been im- posed upon by some trickster when you decided that nothing but a dia- mond would complete your happiness. One of these is simply to drop the stone in a +lass of clear water. The stone, if it es a genuine diamond, will still .continue to radiate some of its brilliancy, but a "paste" will have practically lost all of its glow and lustre. The second water test consists in putting a drop of water upon the stond'b surface and :moving it about "with the pbint of a pin. With a dia- moild the drop will remain globular end Bold together after the manner, somewhat of a 'particle of `quick- silver." .*ut on these the drop will spread.

Al an import- ant station, he issued an order that no rolling stook was -to be moved without his sanction and if any ac- cident were to occur the man respon- sible was to be that. Immediately after the order was , an engineer came to him and asked him What he would de with his locomotive. "For," be said, "if, I hitch onto the train in front, the cars 'are in such bad con- dition that the•couplings will pall out. If I bitch on behind, we eannot•see the What shall "I do?" Trotzky thought hard for a mom- ent, then replied: "Put your loco- motive in the middle of the train." The engineer, of course, did what he was ordered, with such disastrous results that Trotzky decided to leave the engineers to run things them- selves at the other division points at which he stopped. In one important town- in Russia the people had been particularly plagued with incessant edict from their Bolshevik rulers: First there was a "military week," when -all the younger men were sent to dig trench- es; then there was an "education week," a "week of cleanliness" and so on, till one night a wag whose identity was never discovered put up the following notice along the streets:. "All red }aired women are to as- semble at ten o'clock at the of- fices of the Revolutionary Com- mitte for collecting the dead leaves in the'parks and dooryard." No one was surprised at this ridic- ulous order, and the result was a gleaming mob of red haired women of all shades, shapes and ages in front of the Commissioners headquarters in the morning. To encourage matrimony, the Bol- sheviki announced that they would give every bride a wedding present of linen, cotton or shoes, from the government stores. Marriage, under the Soviet systeni, is a civil function of the simplest form. Following this announcement, when a woman discov- ered she needed a new pair of shoes, she'd simply get a man friend to go thrbughh the very informal marriage ceremony, secure her new shoes and they'd each depart for their separate 'home. Some enterprising women, seeking to profit as rapidly as pos- sible, immediately secured a divorce and govt married again to secure other • Boarding-house Humor — Wig— "Wasn't that a fine lecture by Pro- fessor •Dinglesnick on 'The Culture of Prunes?'"
