They stcod so calm, inscrutable and cold, Somehow it never seemed they cared at all For you or me, opr fortunes dr our fall, And yet we felt their thrall; And ever and forever to the end We shall not cease, my friend, To hear their call. Partner, remember the hills? The grim and massive majesty of hills That soared, so far, Seeming, at night, to scrape against a star. Bo you remember how we lay at night (When the great herd had settled down to sleep) And watched the moonshine—white Against the peaks all garlanded with snow. While soft and low The night wind murmured in our ears —and so We wrapped our blankets closer, look­ ed again At those great shadowy mountain-tops, and then Bank gently to our deep And quiet sleep? —Berton Braley, in Workaday World." "Songs of the Limping. A limp in an inequality in the gait due to difference in length of the legs, restricted motion in ono or more of th© joints, muscular weakness', pain in ”■ the foot or any of the joints or muscles of the leg, or fatigue, In the physician’s eye there is great significance in th© character of the limp, and one who has had much experience can often diag­ nose the condition by merely watching tlio patient walk. Thus a stroke of apopelxy may result in only a mild de-! gree of paralysis, permitting the pati- ’ ent to walk, but with toe- drop, so that j he has to swing the leg outward as he ! •draws it forward. In the paralysis re- j suiting from disease in infancy the* child walks with a characteristic spring of the affected leg, The limp following infantile paralysis varies ac­ cording to the muscles involved and the degree of paralysis, but it is a limp of weakness, and its cause is usually readily recognized. In congenital dislocation of the hip the resultant limp has been described as a lurch; the foot strikes the ground at the proper time., but then the body sinks down on that side as though the leg were sliding up alongside the hip bone—as indeed it is. The limp of a man with an artificial leg is somewhat similar. The limp due to a stiff joint Is easily recognized, and it is usually apparent which joint is at fault. If the joint is fixed in a straight line, the person has to rise on tiptoe on the sound side so that the other foot will not scrape along the ground, o-r he must swing th© limb outward, In order to advance it. When the affected: joint is. stiffen­ ed at an angle the limb I® shortened and the body sinks to that Bide. In beginning disease of the hip or knee the limp is at first slight and not per­ manent and the child does not com­ plain of much pain. This Is unfortun­ ate, for the parents are likely to. regard the occasional limp as of no signific­ ance,—making perhaps, that old mis- tak© of attributing it to "growing pains,”—and so they let the child go on without a medical examination un­ til It is too late to prevent th© disease from running its disastrous course. -j-----------------—......................... Freeing of Slaves in Burma. A durbar, or reception of native chiefs, was recently held by the Gov­ ernor of Burma, Sir Harcourt Butler, at Myithina, to inform the chiefs that Bflavery must be abolished in the Kac­ hin Hills.. The durbar was held with great pomp and ceremony, and over 100 chiefs attended. ’ The Governor told them that the Deputy Commissioner with other ex­ perienced officers would, visit those pails where slavery still existed and arrange for th© release of the slaves and th© payment of compensation for them on the same scale as was paid, last year in the Hukawng Valley. The Governor gave the chiefs dis­ tinctly to understand that onoo the' price of slaves had been paid, they j wotild become free men and women, and would be in exactfty the same post-! tion as other free men and women in the Kachin Hills. "Th® emancipated people will cultivate their lands, enjoy the wages that they earn and hold pro­ perty like other free men. From to­ day onward, there must be no sale of slaves, or gift of slaves os part of dowries in marriage or in the settle­ ment of feuds or otherwise, nor must the families' of slaves be broken up.” These decisions, he added, were un­ alterable decisions of the great Brfc? tlsh Government. --:------------------ Canada’s Copper. The production of copper in Canada from Canadian ores in recent years has varied; between 50,000 and 60,000 tons annually, mostly in the form of blleter copper and copper matte, part of which is feeing refined In Canada, pue to the steady demand for the metal and the slight increase in the unit price, the production In 1926 amounted to nearly 70,000 tons. Bri­ tish Columbia and Ontario ore the principal producers although a small Amount is shipped ft?om the province of Quebec. -------——...........

It’s the answer.” Sinus Disease. What are the sinuses? The sinuses ar© bon© cavities in the skull, lined with a delicate living membrane that is continuous with the lining of the throat and nose; the cavity located in the top of the cheek bone is known as the antrum, while th© frontal sinuses ar© found Immediately above the eyes. These cavities have a structure’ like a honey-comb, which makes it very dif­ ficult to dislodge the infecting germs. And germs do gain entrance to the sinuses with comparative ease, since the lining of the nose leads into them. In the last few years sinus disease has become very common; If you want to find out how common, just visit the office of a nose specialist any day of th© year, but particularly during the winter and spring, and see the steady stream of sinus patients *-walting for treatment. Because it is easy to acquire and very difficult to cure, one point to re­ member in regard to sinus disease is to prevent it. This means that ex­ treme care must be taken to complete­ ly clear up every attack of flu, grippe and running cold; treat them as seri­ ous affairs and do not consider con­ valescence complete until full bodily strength is regained. It also means keeping away from people who are sneezing and coughing; it means keep­ ing teeth (particularly in th© upper row) and throat in a healthy condition so that no infection from them will spread into the sinuses. It means keeping your body in good condition so that you will not catch colds and other diseases of the nos© and throat even if exposed to them. What are the symptoms of sinus disease? The infection sets up mflam-! mation, creating an accumulation ofj material which should be discharged 1 through the nose; however, the tiny [ passage leading to the nose becomes clogged up; the material cannot drain away, but increasing continuously, exerts pressure upon the nerves, and you have very severe pain, often fol­ lowed by nausea and diarrhoea. Re­lief is impossible until the passage is I cleared and free discharge through the nose is secured. No remedy but in­ halation is of use, and frequently re- No Ultima Thule. In ‘the flat world of the Romans Ulti­ ma Thule was the last island, the end of th© known, world. No navigator was so intrepid that he even thought of sailing beyond Thule. i Lucius Seneca, tbe wise poet of the * first .century, must have been the pre- j si dent of the original Optimist Club. j No doubt his prophecy drew sarcastic ■ remarks from many gloomy pedants ' when he wrote: V-enlent annis saecula seri® quibus Oceanu-s vincula rerum laxet et^in- gens pateat tellus—nec sit terrier ulti-. ‘ ma Thule. j (The time will come in the far dis-1 tant years when th© great ocean will loose the chains of things"’ and the mighty earth shall li© open, and there shall be no Ultima Thule in the world).
