It consists of a small souyerair "beak- let, artistically bound in duplex leather wild gauss paper, and tied With an olive green silk cord. The lettering is embossed in gold, and very unique design liar been. chosen for the cover. The latter is slit out so as to ;fozni a sort of frame, and in this is inset a spray of Canadian Heather from the Rocky Mountains Park the plisb. flowers of the heather ag the word -brown background ing a very- attractive color co nation.

Ingaathettlarmintraffic inatements children r�shavt been publicly made- by Sister Arend of Stuttgart, Germany. According t this woman, who was formerly a pc iicewoman at Stuttgart, there exist in organized traffic of a particularl shameful kind of children, _ who are said to be hired out to beggars and let out to work for profit and for im- moral purposes. The abuses of baby farming are also mentioned, nays the London Times. This arrangement is directed in par - titular against Germany and other continental countries, but as the, traf fic in children was stated by, Sister ,Arendt to be Just as great, in England, information has been obtained from the best sources in London in order to checkthe charges. Except in re- gard to the evils of baby farming no`, confirmation of the sweeping indict- ment ease canbefound. Mrs. ,Bram- well Booth, who was for many years at the head of, the woman's rescue work of the Salvation Army, does not believe that there is to any - consider- able extent organized traffic of the kind described. The same informa- tion was forthcoming from the Na- tional Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to children." Sister Arendt told of the Russian 1i ituti.on for crippled children where m, ;Die police found no fewer than 78 little ones who had been maimed in order that they plight be let out as beggars. `Cases: of this kind, however, end no paralel in England. Isolated cases sometimes appear in the police ''courts, such as that of .a child:, whose eyes were poisoned by its another in :order to awaken public sympathy for begging purposes, but this is an extremely rare 'offense. e t, 0 s y ii Trying.

SIR 331) Man ot the Mo—ntent in :Europe Britain's Foreign Secretary, Sir Edward Grey, Britain's sec- retary for Foreign Affairs and pro ably next Liberal Premier is ay one of the outstanding fig- ures m Europe, on account of the part that he played in the present Austriao-Servian affair, and his; efforts to maintain the peace' of Europe. To understand Sir Edward's haracter, it is necessary to bear i ind two things. He is an aaisto rat of erittocrats, and the greates ving authoriey on fly-fishing. The rst explains why he is in politics. he second reveals the tempera- ent of the man. Ire -was also nee the amateur tenniS champion 1 England, Thera is no nobler loocl in Britain than his.

He is English of the English, cold, reserved, correct in pose and consistent in poise. His character is so strong and his record so clean that no breath of scandal can cling te biro. None would believe it. Nobody believes he would lie, either diplomatically or personally. fle has never sat for any but the one constituency, and he has -repre- sented it since he was 23 years old. He will probably continue as its representative until lie offers him- self for election no more. Sir Ed- ward Grey- has guided Britain through sonae. anxious days and clark.

Anyone wonld marvel at my reeov young man well known about Chat ham. I had inherited a rheumatic ten dency through my mother's family, and in ray early days suffered fright- fully. About three years ago the Dalt and stiffness settled In my left knee joint, I was lame and walked with a very distinct limp. Nerviline was brought to my notice and I rubbed it into the stiff joint four or five times a day. It dispelled every *vestige of pain, reduced the -swelling, took out the stiffness and gave me the full use of my limb again. I don't believe there is a pain -relieving remedy, not a sin- gle liniment that can compare with Nerviline. hope every person with pains, with sore back, with lameness, with lumbago, with neuralgia -1 do hope they will try out Nerviline which I am convinced will quickly and per- manently cure them." If Nerviline wasn't a wonderful painless remedy, if 'Nerviline didn't cmickly relieve, if Nerviline wasn't known to be a grand cure for all rheu- matic conditions, it wouldn't have been so largely used as a family rem- edy for the past forty years.
