Your furnace should not
only give you plenty of

of heat.
Some houses would be
better without any heat
than the kind their fur-

If you study the Sunshine

what the right kind of heat
is and how to get it.

VERSES FROM FRANCE
A soldier's mother who has lost two
sons in the war has received the following
beautiful verses from another son who is
still on the firing line. The soldier's ap-
preciation of the heroic sacrifice the
mothers are making is beautifully express-
ed in these verses:
Midnight o'er the trenches creeping,
Chill and cold the North winds blow,
Winged death its watch is keeping,
Desolation all below.
Yet with night and all its terror,
And with death upon the wind,
I would rather be the soldier
Than the woman left behind.
Make this beauty lotion for a few cents
tied see for yourself
What girl or woman hasn't heard of
lemon juice to t'etnovecoruplexiou blemish-
es, to whiten the skin and to bring out
the roses the freshness and the hidden
beauty? But leucon juice alone is acid.
therefore irritating. and should be nixed
with orchard white this way. Strain
through a fine cloth the juice of two fresh
lemons ' into 't bottle containing about
three ounces of orchard white. then shake
well and you have a whole quarter pint of
skirl and complexion lotion at ab •tot the
cost one generally pays for a meals jar of
ordinarily cold creme, Pe sure to strain
the lemon juice so no pulp gets into the
bottle, then this lotion will remain pure
And fresh for months. When Applied daily
to the two, nock arms and hands it should
help to bleach, clear, smoothen and beau.
City the akin,
&ny druggist will supply three ounces
of orchard white at very little cost andthe
grocer has the 1lirlsaaa,
Here perhaps a lad is lying,
Lips untouched by earthly care.
While the kiss of mother's parting
Still in memory lingers there.
Dying yes but free from sorrow,
Save for those he left behind.
I would rather be that hero,
Than the mother all alone.
There, with all a youth's devotion,
By his guns another day,
And afar across the ocean
Some young heart will break today.
God in• heaven, kind and tender,
Comfort her with love Divine,
I would rather be tha' soldier '-
Than the woman left behind.

COMMUNICATION
Mr Editor.
Dear Sir,—
The boys of the Wingham Base Ball
Club are reorganizing for 1918, and would
like through your columns to present to
Wingham citizens some of the claims of
this, our National Game. You know Sir
it takes a considerable number of dollars
and cents to equip .an up-to-date club,
and if some of the large hearted, good
natured professional and business men of
Wingham would just hand to Mr. W. D.
Pringle a small donation for the good of
our organization it would be greatly ap-
preciated by the boys of the "bat."
You middle-aged gents, just remember
the time when you were young, and how
that base -ball Waste) you then the, Elixir
of Life itself remember, and then just
give your donation to our Treasurer, the
aforesaid Mr. W. D Pringle.
Last year we were never defeated, and
with a little encouragement, we are hop-
ing again this year to be the Banner
Team, and thus adding a little More glory
to our dear old Maitland town.
The base -ball boys who played in our
parks a few years ago, but to -day are
fighting Kaiser Bill and his gang in Flan-
ders, have been highly spoken of because
of their quickness in action, and so please
kindly help us to maintain the high
prestige they once enjoyed.
In conclusion we would ask the Prop-
erty Committee of our town to have the
grass cut in the park, it is now so long
that with difficulty we find our ball.
Thanking you, Mr. Editor, for space
given and in anticipation thanking those
who this year will help us to bat our ball
real high. Wewould
Respectfully remain
Yours truly,
Wingham Base Ball Boys.

CANADA
Canada's Registration
Its Purpose and Application
CANADA
faces the gravest crisis in her history. Four years of war have taken from
the Dominion a heavy toll in talent and labor, yet despite the shortage of man
powers bur Allies still depend on Canada to maintain her own fighting.forces at full
strength and to increase her exports of food and war materials, so vital to them, and to
the successful prosecution of the war.
Every ounce by which Canada can increase her food production and every ounce Canada
v.,n save in her food consumption is needed for export to the Allies.
Should the war continue for another year food cards and a rationing system may have to
be instituted. It is the duty of Canada to year, prepared for whatever situation circumstances•
may force upon her.
It is quite probable that before the war is won our Governmertt may have to place
restrictions upon the occupations in which menand women may engage. In such
event the Government wishes to be in a .., position to render all possible assistance in
usefully our population and profitably employed.

All persons residing in Canada, male or female
British or Alien (lf 16 years and over, will be required
to register on June 22nd and truthfully answer the
questions set forth upon the registration card.
ltiss not the Government's intention to conseript
labour in any form, but to assist its directing it wisely,
The information procured through registration will
be used --as an aid 10 the Military Authorities in pro-
curing the men necessary to maintain "Canada's

and intelligently administer a system of food rationing
