Not the least among the inventions and developments which have made the last hundred years the most notable in the world's history is the kodak. The canvas on which the famous artists of the poet depicted the lineaments of the great was for the favor:d few. The or- dinary photograph brought within the reach of all an approach to that which previously had been confined to the rich ; but for the photograph as for the paint- ing there vias more or less of the artifl. oial pose, and as a result the, life sad animation that expressed the individual- ity of the original was almost wholly laoking in the reproduction. The kodak gives us something differ- ent. Always present, it Cali be made to catch the expression of the moment, a characteristic attitude that cannot be assumed at command, and included in the picture there are bits of the familiar surroundings in trees, flowers, or shrubs which are part of the lite of the home. With the aid of this simple instrument there can be preserved a series of piotor• ial representations of family and social life which are a delight for the present, and may become a source of chastened joy in the years that are to come, when -white-haired parents 1 eneath the desert- ed root tree•onoe again recall to view the boys and girls who, grown to men and women, are far from scenes that have left their perpetual shadow behind. A NATIONAL LIVE STOCK CONVENTION. A meeting of the Executive Commit- tee of the National Live Stook Associa- tion was held on Thursday, November 7th. at the cflice of the Live Stook Com- missioner, Ottawa, to consider the calling of the next conventicn of that htidy. The meeting was attending by the Presi- dent, Hon. John Dryden, Toronto, Ont., the Vice -President Mr. RobertNese, Ho - wick, Qae., Messrs. G. A. Giganit, Que- bec, Que., Arthur Johnston, Greenwood', Ont. and J. G. Rutherford, Live Stook Commissioner. Owing to illness the secretary, Mr. Westervelt, was unable to be present. The Hon. Sydney Fisher attended the meeting during the early part of the day, Arrangements were made for the hold- ing of the next oonventionnt Ottawa, on February 5th, 6th and 7th next. These dates were selected so as to permit the breeders from Western Canada and also from the Maritime provinces to attend the meetings of the .cattle, sheep and swine associations, most of whioh will be held at the end of January and dur- ing the first few day, in February, as also the Horse Show and meeting of the HorseiBreedere' Asecciations which are arranged for the week following, A programme for the convention was informally discussed but .not definitely arranged. A number of subjects will probably be dealt with, but it is likely that the principal discussion will be on the advisability of amending the regula- tions governing the admission to Canada of;pure bred stook. It le also proposed to take np and discuss the best means of retaining for our Canadian breeders the Canadian market for pure bred stook and it is probable that a number of specially prepared papers on this subject will be submitted. The future of our export trade in puts bred stock will also be disonssed, while it le expeoted that omsiderable light will be thrown on our de in cattle and ei<port tea sheep t p for slaughter as also our expert trade in meats and meat food products. The fact that a majority of the live stook meetings are to bo held immedi• re . prior to the Convention ill render ably p o v w it possible for these bodies to definitely instruct their: delegates as to the stand they are to take on the various subjects likely to come np for diectiesion.

There are probably very few people in the world who could not be perfect- ly well and strong, if they had known the secret of right thinking in their youth, and bad practiced it through life, says Suooess. That a right life must follow right thinking is as soientiflo as the laws of mathematics. Unfortun- ately, some of us were not taught this. All sorts of discordant, weak, •oriminal thoughts played havoo with our minds before we learned what devastation was being affected in us, Habit had so fixed the trend of life and the ten- dencies of action, that we were almost eaves to it and to our environment. How many thousands of homes have been wrecked by poor health! What tragedies have been wrought by shat- tered nerves and brokendown oonstit- uticns, even in• the lives of good -inten- tioned people. Mentally able, but physically weak, would make a good epitaph on the tombstone of many a failure. If we only knew the secret of think- ing ourselves into health, into a arse• ceesfnl sphere, or how to surround our- selves with a healthful, prosperous at- mosphere, ,we should know how to solve the greatest problem of life. The brain gets a great deal of credit whioh belongs to the stomach, and to the musoles of the lungs. A single talent, in a strong physique, with a good will back of it all, will accomplish more in life than ten talents in a weak body. W hat we need is a strong, vig- orous vitality which will stand a tre- mendous strain. Who can measure the disaster to the individual and to the world whioh is caused by blotched work due to ill health? Health is the very mainspring of life, for without it, dispositions are rained, lives are darkened a"d made wretched, efficiency is destroyed. freshness and enthusiasm and the zest which comes from normal living are all gone. What a blessing it is to feel the equipoise, that splendid bal- ance, which exists between a sound mind and a sound body. Ind How Yon Can Test the Blood. Paleness of the lips, gums and inside of eyelids tells of weak, watery blood, while other indications are languid, 'worn out feelings, headaohee, nervous troubles and weakness of the bodily organs. To say that the blood is thin and weak is to mean that it lacks iron and the other b elements of which Dr w o Chase's Nerve Food is composed. There is no greater blood builder.

Invaluable et home or away is a bet - tie el alcohol, p pteoe of blotting paper .and a elik sponge for cleaning clothes. Spots appear on one's clothes some- time in a most mysterfons manner,- and by placing the blotting paper under. Heath the spot, sponging the latter with the alcohol, the foreign matter is cleansed from the right side of the goods, and absorbed onto the blotting paper on the wrong side. Moat olothea would last longer and look better all the time if carefully brushed (not with bristly broom nor a stiff brush), after the dost has been shaken put, This should follow .yery wearing. It is said that a fly never walks down- ward. Acting on the hint a clever housekeeper has devised a window screen designed to conduct all the flies out of doors. The screen is divided 1n two halves, and the upper laps over the low- er with an inch TWO between. A. fly lights on the screen and travels upward until be walks outdoors. Not being able to walk down he has no way pf re- entering the room. When you are buying bananas never purchase the long thin ones, unless you want fruit wbioh will .pucker your mouth. Mo matter how well ripened these thin bananas are, they will always be found both sour and aorid. That is because the bunch containing them was picked too soon. The banana grows fastest at first in length. When it has reached its fullest development in that direction it suddenly begins to swell, and in a few days will double its girth.

NO MONEY AND NO FRIENDS A Sad Story of Consumption in a Canadian Town The Local Hospital Unable to Caro for the Patient, and the query is What to Co? In alittle booklet issued by the National Sanitarium Association under whose auspices has been established the Muskoka Free Hospital for Con- sumptives, we have the story told of a sad case of consumption. A young woman, apparently friend- less, came in on a train reaching Fort William, and immediately procured work as a, domestic. A doctor was called in to examine her case, as she appeared to be a consumptive, and she was at once pronounced a bad case of tuberculosis. She was placed in the small local hospital of the town, and everything possible for the moment is being done to help the patient. But writing to the Secretary of the National Sanitarium Association, the Secretary of the Board of Health asks: "Is it possible to ]Hake room for this patient in the Muskoka Free Hospital for Consunr tives. The local hospital is crowded for room, and there is really no place for this poor girl." Continuing, the Fort William official adds "I may say that as far as being able to pay is concerned, she, as far as we can learn, has no friends who can afford to pay for her in an institution." It is to meet just such cases as these that the Muskoka Free Hospital for Consumptives has been opened. The official reports of the past year show that more than half the patients who entered the institution were abso- lutely free --their maintenance not costing them a single farthing. The others only ppaid a nominal sum rang- ing from $1.50 to $0.00 a weer;, only a fovv paying the larger amount. The average of each patient was less than 50 cents a clay. The actual cost of maintenance to the institution is over $900 a week so that our readers can readily see how strong a case is made out by the Trustees in their appeal to fuake provision for just such apatient as that from Fort Williarn--only one TA' scores who aro constantly seeking .admission.

DOES ADVERTISING PAY? „ Mr. Harry Kneesbaw of Devil's Lake, North Dakota, a former Bradford boy, bears testimony to the fact that adver- tieing bas been a great factor in the success of hie basinette. In a private letter to the editor of the Bradford Witness, a few days ago, the following paragraph appeared, which we ,publish in the hope that it may stimulate Rome of on: merchants to better things in the future: "We are great believers in advertising and the first six months we were in bnsiuess we !pent one-fifth of our gross receipts in advertising and 'we found it paid handsomely We spent In advertising just $3,000 in our first six months. This looks a great deal but when you find it is bringing yon results you do not mind it We use our looal papers for anything special we wish to push and in,that way we keepour stook octan and up to. date all the time. When yon have anything in pattionlar you want to sell, tell the people all about it in a truthful way and never lie to them and your ads will be read when people will not notice who has been lying or exaggerating. Yes, a e ase great belie-' vers in advertising and tbrouah ite means we are going to do $50,000 worth of cash business this coming year."
