A Petition.
I ask not, Lord, Thy special. care,
. But Jut sufficient strength to bear
'The trials that may coni my way,
IThe ills I meet from day to day.
Not isolation mould I seek
1 Prom those who fait, the erfing. weak—
! Nor deem myself more just than they
Whose feet, perchance, have gone
astray,
When others' faults before me rise,
Let me not, with uplifted eyes
And outstretched arms, stand far
apart;
But let uie, with a contrite heart
And humble mien, my sins confess
Unworthy of Thy rigliteousness,
Your Mysterious Powers
The normal senses of mankind are
dight, hearing, touch, smell, and taste.
Bat there are other senses which have
not been classified, and they are enig-
mas for the scientist and the psychic
investigator. There are Hien and wo-
men who can predict a. thunderstorm
through observing sensations in the
brain and the nervous system. This
abnormal sense is often acutely de-
veloped in women of an impression-
able, nervous nature.
Although the discovery of water be-
neath the ground by means of the
divining -rod has been proved to be
trickery in some cases, there is scien-
tific evidence that some persons do
possess a strange sense which enables
them to find water in a dry land, The
proximity of water, which cannot be
seen, is revealed 'to these sensitive
persons by a curious shivering sensa-
tion, and it is probable that the suc-
cessful water -diviners possess a speci-
fic sense.
There are many baffling marvels as-
sociated with the sub -conscious mind
of mankind. There are somniloquent
people who can carry on a conversa-
tion with another person during deep
sleep. They answer questions ration-
ally, and appear to be wide awake in
the conscious mind. But in the morn-
ing they have no recollection what-
ever of having talked in their sleep,
and they are apt to deny the testi-
mony of those who talked with them.
Sleep -Walkers never remember their
nightly adventures. They find it dif-
ficult to believe that they have left
their beds, dressed titamselves, and
taken a walk. All that. they note in
the morning is drowsiness, and some-
times a slight headache.
Sudden changes of personality are
fairly common, and many interesting
cases have been recorded. A man will
suddenly call himself by a new name,
wander to a distant town, and begin a
new life. All his past is forgotten,
and his "double" is a being totally un
like his real self.
This state is described as -"fugue,"
and there have been many strange in-
stances among soldiers suffering Trona
war -shock. When the patients re-
cover they have no recollection of the
lifeled by their self. They say that
they have had a long dream, but can.-
not
annot recall the iticidents.
Promising Ontario Linen Industry.
With the installation of modern web-
spinning machinery completed, a firm
at Guelph, Ontario, is now turning
out web -spun linen. yarns from tax
grown. in the province. A flax spin-
ning mill, operating in conjunction
with the linen mill, makes this indus-
try a self-contained one, able to turn
out linen fabrics, including the finer
grades, : from raw Bax to finished
goods. During the war the plant was
running on cotton and union goods,
because of the difficulty of getting
linen yarn; but with a steady supply
of Canadian spun -linen yarns now as-
sured, it is turning out a full line of
all the finer linen goods, as wellas
the coarse towelling, butchers' linen,
etc.
The development -of flax spinning
will have a stimulating effect on the
PAINFUL RlEUi1ATIS1
May be Driven Out of the Sys-
tem by Enriching the Blood.
In the days of our fathers and grand-
fathers rheumatism was thought to be
the utlavoidable penalty of middle life
and old age. Almost every elderly
person had rheumatism, as well as
many young people. Medical science
did not understand the trouble dict
not know that it was rooted in 'ilie
blood. It was thought that rlieuhna-
tism was the mere effect of exposure
to cold and damp, and it wastreated
with liniments and hot applications,
which sometimes gave temporary re-
lief, but did not cure the trouble. In
those days there were thousands ot
rheumatic drippies, Now, medical
science understands that rheumatism
is a disease at the blood, and that
'With good, rich, red blood any man or
woman of any age can defy thermals -
ism, an be cured, by killing the
poison which causes it, There are
Many elderly people who have never
felt a twinge of rheumatism, and l
many who nave conquered it by situp -1
ly keeping their blood rich and pure.
The blood shaking, blood enriching
qualities; of Dr, Williams' Pink Pills is
becalming every year more widely
known, and it is the more general use
at these pills that has robbed rheu-
matism of its terrors, At the first
sign of poor blood, which is shown by
loss of appetite, palpitations, dull
• skin -and dila eyes, protect Yourself
against the further ravages of disease
by taking Dr. Wiltianm' Pink Pills.
They bare cured thousands of people
-
it you give thein a fair trial they
will not disappoint you.
You can get these pills through any
dealer in medicine or by mail at 50
cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from

growing of flax by . Ontario farmers.
Ontario flax has in the past been
foundiacceptable by Irish linen manu-
facturers in the production of the
famous Irish linens. A. newly invent-
ed Canadian machine to harvest the
Sax, which, for purposes of spinning,
must be pulled, not cut, is expected
to reduce labor costs greatly,
The elimination of the tithe crop in
Russia, which formerly placed Rus-
sian flax on the world market almost
as cheaply as cotton, gives Canada an
added advantage. There seems little
reason why flax production and spin-
ning, with the complementary indus-
try of linen weaving, should not be-
come one of Canada's important in-
dustries. In view of this, Ontario's
leadership in the enterprise of a self-
contained linen industry is especially
interesting.

It is surprising how many useful
things come into general use simply
by some slip or inadvertency.
Blotting paper, for instance, was
the result of a workman's spoiling
of a batch into which he had forgot-
ten to put any sizing material. Nobel
discovered dynamite by a •slip, and
the first bayonet was the result of a
soldier's suggestion that, as the pow-
der was done, they should fix their
long knives into the baarrels of their
rifles and charge.

Empty Thoughts.
The school instructor was teaching
a class in which there were some for-
eign pupils whose vocabularies were
not very extensive,
"Now," he said. pointing to one of
them, "tell me what is a vacuum?"
The pupil thought bard tor a. mo-
ment, and then answered: "I have it
in my head, sir, but I can't express it,"
Brain Power,

Steadily, steadily, into the ground.
Back of the lighting, the power plant's
force--
Wondrous
orce-Wondrous its. working and secret its
source.
Back of the fabric, the loom that must
weave it;
Back of the loom are the hands that
achieve it;
But back of the dream and the per-
fasted plan,
The invention of Nature—the brain of
a man!
Bach of the message, the wireless
spark,
Outracing the sunbeams and cleaving
the dark;
Back of ,the airplanes, the motors that
dare
Contend with and Conquer the forces
of air;
Back of the bullet, the rifle that whirls
it;:.
Back of the missile, the cannon that
hurls it;
Back of the fortress, the engineer's
plan,
But back of the blueprint—the brain
of a man!
Yea, we may soar as the winged
,. eagles soar,
And the uttermost caverns of ocean
explore;
Laugh at the barriers of desert and
sea,
And be.fre a as the winds of the world
are free.
Ours is the earth; -se shall wield it
and mould. it;
The scroll of the: ages shall seize and
enfold it;
This only shall baffle direction and
plan: ,
None can fashion or fathom the brain
of a man!

given the day before by her mistress)
".And they all came in Iilnousines,
and bad on the grandest clothes, and
wore the biggest diamonds."
Neighbor Maid—"And what did they
talk about?"
First Maid—"us,"

if any of you can make a complete
sentence out of two words, both hav-
ing the same sound to the ear,"
First Boy—"I can, Miss Smith."

us hear your sentence."
First Boy—"Write right."
Teacher—"Vers good." -
Second Boy—"Say, Miss Smith, I
can beat that. I can make three words

Third Boy (excitedly) ---"Rear this
Wright, write rite right."
The Last Straw.
Joggles is a good sort, but at times
he gets worried. You see, li@ "has a
large number of little things to worry
him. In other words, Joggles is the
father of thirteen children..
As a good father should, Joggles
took the whole newspaper dozen with
him on ;iris summer holiday. Was he
annoyed at any of the humorous re-
marks of would-be wags which fell on
bis ears? No. He simply puffed with
paternal pride.
It was a railway porter who "broke
the camel's back"—a common or gar-
den railway porter. It happened thus:
Joggles and his little lot came up
to the barrier, Joggles leading.
"What have you been doing?" de-
manded the porter, with a Sherlock
Holmesdike air.
"No -nothing," stammered Joggles.
"Then," thundered the porter, "Wot's

Baby's teething time is a time of
worry for most mothers. Baby's little
gums become swollen end tender; his
bowels get out of order and constipa
Non, colic or even diarrhoea sets in.
To make the teething period easy
Baby's Own Tablets should be given
the little one. They sweeten the
stomach; regulate the Bowels anti
keep baby good natured. Concerning°
them Mrs. Marcel 1?. lLeBlanc. Mein-

used Baby's Own Tablets tor the past
six years and have found them Indio -
namable. To my mindnothing' can
equal them in allaying the fever ac-
companying teething, 1 would not be
without them and can strongly mom -
mend them to other mothers." The
Tablets are field by medicine dealers

Hats Were Heirlooms.
In the olden days in the United
States, soonafter the revolutionary
war, a good beaver bat became a kind
at family heirloom. and was handed
down from father to son. For some
strange reason it was considered to
be rather frivolous and extravagant
to be seen wearing a new beaver hat,
and it was the custom when a man
bought one to leave it out in stormy
weather before wearing it, to "take
the newness aft."
