The Northerners had an armored train, boo, but as-the Cantonese well knew it was in a repair yard on tho noilh side cf the river, and, besides1, the railway bridge across the river was- badly damaged. After four days of this situation the NoitlK'rners managed- to repair both the bridge and their own armored train - but this the Cantonese did not know. The morning of the fifth day dawn ed cold and foggy, Objects even forty fee I away were blurred by the mist, and into this dense fog the Northern ainiorcd Lirin slowly rolled out of Chi ngriiow and- southward along the titvcl.s toward the Cantonese lines, Lacking down the track, But the Cantcinese train "was also on the fiiiiiP line- backing its way slowly vy nadtliware toward Chengchow, with tl:c Ijiqie of opening a surprise attack.

Tho third shell disabled the Canton­ ese engine, and the six exploded in the headquarters armored car with fright­ ful effect, killing General 8. Y.

Men and' women who do not sleep well and are not refreshed and strengthened by a night’s rest, are generally suffering from thin, watery blood. The nerves fail to get the nourishment they demand and head­ aches and' a worn-out feeling is the result. Building up the blood is the one sure step to renewed health and strength, and for this purpose nothing else can equal Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. From the first dose to last they enrich and purify the blood, and in this way promote better appetite, better rest at night, and renewed strength. Mrs. Mary E. Hillman, Williamstown, N.S., writes:—-"I have received so much benefit from Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills’, that I would feel myself ungrate­ ful if I did not let you know. "I was in a very poor state of health, and reached the stage where I had to remain in bed. A doctor was called in and he told me I had no organic trouble, but was simply run down from overwork. I had been left with a family to support, which I did by dressmaking. The doctor said my bicod had almost turned to water, and advised a rest cure. I did it was possible for me to long rest, so I decided to Manis’ Pink Pills. Soon strength returning and long I was able to go about my duties as usual again. This was a few years ago, and my health remained good un- til about a year ago, when I broke out with humor of the blood; Again I con­ sulted the doctor, who said my blood had become so thin that it had really poisoned itself. I told him I had bought several boxes of Dr> Williams’ Pink Pills, and he told me to go on taking them as he thought they were just what I needed; I -took eight boxes and again was in good health. I can there fore recommend these pills to all in a weak or run down condition."

In the matter of pictures, sculpture and £*-coration, allow the child to choose his favorites from "several ex­ amples selected by the parent. If the child draws well, and even if he doesn’t, select several of his best paintings, frame them flat against the wall in a row with picture molding painted to match the woodwork, and see what a spur it is to future effort. These naive creations of childhood are individual and original. Posters for the walls may fee made of cut paper In pleasing colors and bung in a border in the playroom above the wainscoting. These posters may illustrate activities 6t family, friends and pets and will amuse and instruct the children. One little girl made such a quaint, interesting large poster of the family and pets that the mother cut the figures out in silk and wool and appliqued them to a wool background, The result was a most ingenious wall hanging which de­ lighted friends of the children, as the costumes worn were at once recogniz­ able. Pillows for the rooms were made by the children of gingham with figures and flowers in contrasting hues' appliqued. This idea could be carried out for a bed-spread of colored blocks. The colors chosen should always1 har­ monize with those of the room. <vV\PtSH''SuU Swimming and Deaths from Drowning. No doubt before long we shall be reading in the newspapers of some boy or girl being drowned while in swim mlng. These few timely hints may catch the eye of the would-be swim­ mers or their parents, and may be the means of saving some boy or girl from disaster. You can protect your property against fire—and you can replace pro­ perty lost through fire; you can pro­ tect your boy or girl against accident­ al drowning'—but can’t replace the life of your boy or girl. / Children learn to swim very quick­ ly. At the sam> time they can and should learn how to handle themselves in water: how to float, to tread water, to give themselves rest and all the various means to keep afloat. Above all, they should be taught that they can have all the real fun they want in the water’—’Without being foolhardy. In case of accident, it is well to learn all the tricks of life-saving, es­ pecially how to prevent a drowning person clutching you so as to render’ you helpless to save yourself or him. If you find yourself in distress’, keep your head. Don't struggle; don’t throw your hands out of the water—-, use your arms and legs as little as poe-' sible, just enough to float. Tho chances are you will be picked up with in a short time. To revive the apparently, drowned, the “Schafer" prone method is un­ doubtedly the best of all manual meth­ ods*. Briefly it is as follows: 1. The drowned person is placed on the ground, face downwards and to one side, arms extended above -the head. The tongue will drop forward and the fluid in the air passages will run out. Delay is dangerous—dent stop to re­ move clothing. 2. The operator should kneel astride the body, facing the head. Place hands in the small of the back, thumbs touch­ ing oi’ nearly so, the fingers spread out on each side of the lower forward and steadily allow of your body to fa’ll gently tim; immediately swing ribs; lean the weight on the vic­ backward, rapidly releasing the pressure without removing the hands from the body. Repeat this* movement every five seconds; keep it up until natural 'breathing begins, or all hope of such is given up. Minard’s Liniment is reliable.

'Wilson in the London Contemporary Review: A seaise of humor purges away bitteraesg by lift­ ing our hurtful experiences' to a plane where they delight our minds instead of harassing them; by it we can enjoy our (ll.-uniiforts, cspeolajltly in retros­ pect. Jn fact, this make® the whole significance cf humor, It® origin, and raison d'etre. Things are not funny in th'cnmelves, o-nliy as we think them so; humor depends more on a.n atti­ tude of mind than on something in- trindcirtly ludicrous in the thing or situation. And it is not an emotion so much as a pt'int of view; the expres­ s-ion "a sense of humor” recognizes this, for we do not talk of a sense of love. I Russian Birds for Alberta.

Children are delightfully responsive to color. They should find it used with joyous abandon in their simply fur­ nished rooms—an expression of hap­ piness, dear to the heart of a child. Happiness may be unfolded to a child through a harmonious -color scheme as well as through music, stories or play. Sturdy, simple furniture- in many pleasing designs, particularly the peasant styles, may now be procured unfinished, and painted at home. Do not limit the use of color to the furni­ ture but use it in the walls and wood- work also, keeping to three main hues. This will give variety and- will not be too complicated^ The tones may bo selected from pieces of dress material, colored tissue paper, flowers or any objects so arranged together as to sug­ gest three harmonious colors. Re­ member always that greens, blues, blue-violets and all very light tones make excellent backgrounds, as they give a feeling of space and aways stay back; that dark blues and red-violets, unless used very delicately, malto a room dark, while yellows and yellow­ greens make a room light Reds, vio­ let-reds and orange-reds afe best avoided as backgrounds except in most delicate tints as red, is so active a color, that it is Impossible to keep It back. In a playroom a threeToot wain­ scoting painted dike the wall or wood­ work and varnished is easily cleaned and is a protection to the wall from kicks and scratches.

The only consolation is that British newspapers can express their annoy­ ance with the certainty that there is no danger whatever of a split with America. ’The fact that the two na­ tions can speak to one another In- un­ guarded; language is of great signi­ ficance.
