(Continued from page 1) hogs and children, chop the kindling wood and make the fires, spade and cultivate the garden, bake, scrub, sew and do their bit in the harvest field and in' the threshing season, in ad- dition to the cooking and care of the children day and night, and a few other odd jobs for recreation. Why? Because men have been blinded by "dead men's brains" inflated with their own importance, and side-track- ed by a wrong understanding of the Scriptural commands and demands of the relations of husband and wife. He is not to be a tyranical lord, but a servant of all in love, and love ful- fills the law because it works no ill to its neighbor. Independent thought is about as rare as butterflies in an Arctic 'win- ter! We heard a noted.minister say, "I am not an independent thinker. Better men have. thought out my thoughts for me, I am but their gram- aphone." He was dry as dust, life- less as an Egyptian mummy, nourish- ing as a dry breast ,and as attractive as a glass insulator on a telegraph pole. Let us be thankful for the benefits of "dead men's brains;" imitate their virtues, but carefully shun their vic- es. Let us learn to use the brains we have and go one better. Why not? It is up to us to acquire all the knowledge they possessed, and to enjoy a larger, cleaner field of vision and view the undiscovered from lof- tier mountain peaks than the best of the dead. Rut will we? No, never; not so long as we continue to live on the denatured, demineralized, devitalized cereals; peel the potatoes, fruits, and turnips, and pour the peelings and juices in which the vegetables are cooked, down the sink, or into' the swill barrel for the hogs, or throw them out the kitchen door to breed germs in the hot sun and create malarial fevers. It is utterly impos- sible to grow- big boned, big bodied, big brained, big possibility men and women, though we may give the children the very highest collegiate training and take first prize at the Toronto Show for our prize hogs?. The nation can never win so long as the individual masses remain ig- norant of the laws of human life, while mothers are overworked and undernourished; the child robbed of its birthright; the youth tati'j;•ht to memorize instead of think and reason from cause to effect, the mechanic converted into a mere automatic machine, giving minimum work for maximum pay; the "boss" a paid slave driver, and the employer simply a coffer for the blood money of his victims. The children are just what par- ents and teachers make them. They must be taught to think, idealize, in- vent and construct, and be quick to reason and analize from effect back to cause. They must be taught to be "Jack of all trades" and master of one. As child and . man he must be taught to be true to the natural and spiritual laws of his being, for "as a man thinketh in his heart, so is he," and as he feels in his stomach, so will he be. You cannot live and get the beat out of your life on "dead men's brains," any more than thrive on the dinner your grandfather ate one hun- dred years ago. J. THOMAS WILHIDE. Toronto, Ont.

He had been ill only a few days with influenza, which developed into pneumonia. He was eight years and two months rad. When six months of age he was taken very ill, suffering severe convulsions and was in a serious condition for sonic time, finally leaving him an in- valid ever since, and at times lie suf- fered a great deal, but gradually gaining better health as he grew old- er. His parents have been most patient and uncomplaining, untiring in their ministrations by day and night, sparing no trouble or expense in their efforts to better his condi- tion, but God saw fit to relieve the little fellow, especially dear to them because of his infirmities. The father and mother have the deepest sympa- thy of their many friends and neigh- bors in their bereavement. The fun- eral was held on Friday afternoon, interment being in the Exeter ceme- tery.
