PRESENTED A BIBLE TO THE PRINCE OP WALES Upon his recent visit to Toronto his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales graciously accepted the gift of a Bible from the Upper Canada Bible Society. The presentation was very fittingly made at the Exhibition grounds, where for many years the society has had a booth for th disposing of Bibles to visitors at the Erhibition. The Bible was presented by Dr. N. W. Hoyles, K.C., LL.D., president of the society, in a few well chosen re- marks. HONORING THE BRAVE.

A despatch f •om London says: -All London newspapers are featuring the extraordinarily enthusiastic welcome the Prince of Wales is receiving in I Canada. The Westminster Gazette says: - "No one ever doubted that the Prince would receive such a welcome; his position, his personality aiid. the part he played in the struggle wherein the Canadians bore so great a share were sufficient to assure that. But the people of the Dominion are sur- passing all expectations by the hearti- ness of their welcome and by the keen pleasure they are obviously taking in the Prince's visit. In the midst of all these manifestations of public in- terest and of his own popularity, the Prince is bearing himself well, dis- playing that quiet courtesy and mod- esty which have already endeared him to the people at home." Reproducing Rare Carpets. Carpets now on display in a London shop will, in the opinion of the Times, surprise those who are unacquainted with the strides made in the manu- facture of carpets by British factories during the war. The carpets are claimed to be exact reproductions of rare eastern carnets and are being of- fered at prices not much higher than those of ordinary loom production. The most remarkable feature about them is considered to be the true ren- dering of that eastern lustre which has hitherto defied successful copying. Some of the most notable reproduc- tions are those of the seventeenth cen- tury coronation carpets which were made for the Shah of Persia; the Khorassan rug, and the famous car- pet manufactured for the Sheik Is- mail, the original of which hangs in the Victoria and Albert Museum of London; and there are copies of others from the cathedrals and art galleries of the 'world. The carpets vary in size and have all been made in a British factory during the past three or four years. 14g ael- 17<i f Cis ADT" XE2' :tom Ambassador is Privileges the Christians of Northwest Persia is told in the Daily News.

But what does the word "drowned" mean? Not dead, necessarily. A per- son may be drowned and yet may "conte alive agaiu." So it would at least appear from the records of the coast guard. The life-savers of the coast guard are all thoroughly instructed in the art of resuscitating tho drowned. They are frequently drilled in the practice, of it and know exactly how to go about the business. The ancient' method of rolling a drowned person on a barrel has .been superseded by more scientific processes. In many an instance where doctors have declared persons to be absolute• ly and hopelessly dead they have nevertheless been revived by per- sistent efforts. A standing order of the coast guard requires its life- savers in such cases to keep on with the work for at least half an hour, even where the heart has stopped beating and there is no sign of life whatever.
