As a result, his villa ' is to be sold and all that he possesses will be given to the bank. In addition, Prince Matsukata has informed the head of the Peerage Bureau that he wishes to return his title' of prince to the throne. He gives as his reason the fact that he will not in the future be able to live, in a style suited to such a high title, "I have decided to surrender my title and give up what property I have," he says. "I am now free, but :what a fool Jam that I did not be- come a plain man long ago." There is general regret that Prince Matsukata has been brought to this pass. His father was one of the .most distinguished statesmen and finan- ciers of modern. Japan, and formed one of the little clique known as the Genro which ruled behind the throne.

IS THERE A BABY IN YOUR HOME? Is there a baby or young children In your home? If there is you should not be without a box of Baby's Own Tablets. Childhood ailments come quickly and means should always be at hand to promptly fight them. Bayb's Own Tablets are the ideal home remedy. They regulate the bowels; sweeten the stomach; banish constipation and indigestion; break up colds and simple fevers—in fact they relieve all the minor ills oi little, ones. Concerning them Mrs. Moise Cabotte, Makamik, Que., writes: "Baby's Own Tablets are the best remedy in the world for little ones. My baby suffered terribly from indi- gestion and vomiting, but the Tablets soon set her right and now she Is in perfect health."

Lunacy' for All London Times (huh): (A French statistician has sihown by figures, that by the year 2139 the British people will be composed of an equal nura- ber of sane people and lunatics.) A people like. the British, who have al- ready adventured to the extreme limits set by geography, are likely to welcome the further adVenture of na- tional lunacy, to be made in. the same gradual but unresisting way. TibeY can always draw back, not denying the facts but by changing the defini- tions. But a bold acceptance of their destiny, a genial reluctance to disap- .point statfeticians who raa-ely take their disappointments well, will lead rather to an eager impatienoe for the new epoch to 'begin—Partly in order that comparisons can be made, but chiefly that all may enjoy the "hap- Piness which madness often hits on and reason and Danity cannot safely he delivered of" to which olonius al- luaese in a play which will now be re- read with quickened interest. PLENTY OF EYES Turnip: Goodness, Mr. Potato, you never ought to become near. sighted with all those eyes! Canada's Seed Grading System Commerce in seeds in Canada is conducted on a basis of legally defined grades, and the quality ot. seed sold must conform to preseribed, grade de- finitions,. This involves responsible duties for the inspectors of the Do- minion Seed Branch, Departmeut of Agrtculture, who grade all agricul- tural seed and a large part of the field root and garden vegetable seeds required for domestic use and for ex- port. According te the latest an - nal report of the Minister of Agricul- toe 32,617 control sampleswere ex- amined and graded at laboratory points during the fiscal year 1025-26. The total quantity of seed represent- ed by these samples amounted to sev- eral millions of bushels,.

If after the attack the patient can be questioned it is common to find him in a state of com-' • pike amnesia, If he recalls anything,. it will be the vision he saw. Ail enemy arose before him in the form of an armed man or tiger and he fell on his aggressor, l "Van Loon refutes Kraepelin's opinion that the amok is an epileptic episode," says the correspondent. "It, is the result ef mental distress the' etiologic factor in which is an infec- tious process, usually malaria, ty- phoid or influenza. On the Continent infections do not produce such same attacks of !sanity, but in the Malay race the'emotivity is intense and sug- gestibility is without equal in other races. These people offer no resist- ance to a sudden emotion; they queckly lose their heads and are strongly &object to panic, Aided by an infection, it is evident that emotiv- ity and suggestibility increase and lead to the acute mental cortfuston resulting in the amok. The Unclean Male London Sunday Times (Cons.): We have grown accustomed to the um - mantic tholight that the Elizabethans, swaggering through their spacious days in cloak and ruff, were far from cleanly, and the memory of the men who fought at Waterloo remains un- tarnished, in spite of the fact that they really washed. When it comes to mordern hygiene it is ,a different matter. It touches us nearly to be told that present-day men's clothes are not clean. Yet here at last is the retort for which woraen,•Iong censur- ed for their dress, have been looking. The 'modern girl, charged with the brevity of her skirt, can politely in- quire when the modern man is,st had his trousers cleaned. The typist whose employer objects to her short sleeves can hint that her jumper washes, while his "very . serviceable suit of black" doesn't.
