Ten years ago, says the London cor- respondent of the New York Sun, bananas were practically unknown in the British Isles. Joseph Chamberlain and the late Sir Alfred Jones are given the credit of introducing bananas as a staple article of food in the United Kingdom.

The lactic a id germ destroys the germs of putrification. Scraps of toilet soap should be sav- ed, and when a half cupful or SO is on band, it is a good plan to snake the scraps into soap jelly. To use sour milk for griddle cakes, never add baking powder, but instead an even teaspoonful of baking soda to each cup of milk, Stick a pin through the cork of every bottle that contains poison, and this may save tragic mistakes when seek- ing medicine in the dark. The best thing to dust furniture is a large, soft paint brush which has been dipped in olive ell and squeezed almost dry. This will take up every bit of dust without sending it flying about. Some of the most attractive glass spoons. Many prefer these to silver. as they will not tarnish. Potato balls which are saturated in butter after being boiled are delicious. They should be served with a generous sprinkling of mi.;ced parsley. A bare broom splinters matting easily. If you have no long -handled soft brush make a gray canton flannel covering for the top of the broom. Grease on a kitchen floor can be soft- ened by pouring kerosene over it, and letting it remain for ten or fifteen min- utes; then scrub with soda water. Paint and varnish can be easily re- moved from the hands by first rubbing well into them some grease or lard, then washing with soap and water. Stale macaroons, which can be bought at the baker's, make the tast- iest addition to puddings and custards if pulverized and sprinkled over top. A frying basket should be dipped in boiling water or heated in the oven before being put in the hot fat. It will thus not reduce the temperature of the lard. - Any one troubled with any itching, burning, irritating skin disease can place full reliance on Burdock Blood Bitters to effect a cure, no matter what other remedies have failed. It always builds up the health and '•trength on the foundation of pure, rich 11 +xi, and in cont,equence the cures it rnakes are of a pertnanent and lasting nature. Mrs. Richard Coutine, White Head, Que., writes :•-" I have been bothered with salt rheum on my elands for two years, acid it itched so I did not know what to do. .o. I trieci .0 three doctors and even went to Montreal to the hospital without letting any relief. I was advised to try Burdock Blood Bitters, so I got three bottles, and before I had the second used I found a big change; now to -day I am eared."

There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed con- dition of the mucous lining of the Eus- tachian Tube. When this tube is in- flamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is clos- ed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condi- tion, hearing will be destroyeu forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Ca- tarrh, which is nothing but an inflam- med condition of the mucous surfaces.

Only nine per cent. of Western Ontario which has an area of 20,000 square miles is in woodland, according to Professor Tavitz, at a meeting of the experiment- al union held in Guelph recently. Con- trasted with this, Prussia with an area of only 10,000 square miles has 23 per cent. There is plenty of waste ground unavailable for agriculture that could be used to reverse this undesirable comp- arison. The advantages of reforests. ation are also so manifold and easily acquired that this expert is engaged in a worthy work in presenting them to Ontario far- mers who will be standing sadly in their own light if they continue to treat them with indifference. Children Cry FOR FLETCHER'S CASTORIA. Mr. Charles Shtick, who has been a familiar figure in Teeswater and one of the early settlers of Culross, was removed by death on Sunday night, January 28, at seven o'clock. Deceased had been confined to his bed for some weeks before his death, growing weak- er every day until the final call came. He was aged 74 years. Deceased was a man who in his youth was very ener- getic and he accomplished feats in the bush and the harvest field that few men could duplicate. When he first came to Culross he worked out among the farmers and he helped to clear a number of farms in the vicinity of Teeswater. For a long time he lived on the 12th eon of Culross, and also for a time lived on eon 6. Retiring from the farm he and Mrs Silli ck came to Teeswater and have resided on Clar- inda St ever since. He was a member of the Teeswater Methodist church, was one of the most regular attendants and lived an exemplary Christian life. He leaven besides a widow, one daugh- ter, Mrs Jos Mc1ague of Culross and two sons, Messrs Will and Finlay, gee te.4.16* An eminent scientist, the other day, ;ave his opinion that the most won- derful discovery of recent years wire the discovery of Zana -!;Belt.

Only the other day Mr. Marsh, of 101 Delorimier Ave., Montreal, called upon the Zam-Buk Company and told them that for over twenty-five years he had been a martyr to eczema. His hands were at one time so covered with sores that he had to sleep in *,loves. Four years ago Zam-Buk was introduced to him, and in a felt' months it cured him.

CANADA'S INDIAN POPULATION. According to the figures recently pub- lished by the Department of Indian af- fairs; the Indian population of Canada is estimated to be 103,661, while the Esk- imos number 4,600. The Six Nation In- dian alone have increased 37 per cent. during the last 30 years. Further figures go to show that the Indians are entering more and more in- to the industrial life of the country. Last year from farming, trapping, hunting. fishing and other labors, their revenue was estimated at $5,600,000. There are 324 Indian Schools in operation, with an enrollment of 11,196 pupils. About 44,000 or almost half are Rom- an Catholic in religion, while 19,863, be- long to the Anglican church. Of the rest 12,868 are Methodists, 1,616 are Presby- terians, 1,153 are Baptist, 813 belong to other Christian churches, and 23,4I4 are pagans. Porto Rico seems to have prospered since it became a possession of the United States. The -assessed value of property on the island is said to have increased from $9e,000,000 in 1905 to over $162,000,000 in 1911. At the meeting of Kinloss Council the application of Thomas Murray, of Langside, for the Clerkship and Trea- surership of the township, was accept- ed by vote. Temporarily at least, this puts George Moffat, one of the best clerks in the county, out of the office which he has held and capably filled for years. Other officers appointed or reappointed at the same meeting were: Assessor, D. S. MacDonald; Collector, John Purvis; Medical Health Officer, Dr. Jamieson. Two hundred and sixty acres of water melons are what a farmer in south- western Kansas planted last summer, and his neighbors planted almost as many.- Since they are fifty miles from a railroad, they did not send the melons to market, but crushed them for the seed. to be sold to seed houses and medicine makers. Some of the farm- ers made syrup from the melon juice, and found it so good that they plan to boil the juice of all their melons next 3 ear and put the syrup on the market along with the seeds. Thero seems to be nothing the matter even with that part of Kansas which the railroads have not 3 et reached. WhyNatibeWell and Straong DREAM FANTASIES Cause and Effect in the Visions That Come In Sleep. A DREAM'S CURIOUS SEQUEL. It Explained the Meaning of the Oft Recurring Fancy That a Cat Was Clawing the Slumberer's Throat, Rapidity of the Dream Process, It was a personal experience of a singular character that first impressed Upon me, some years ago, the impor- tance of dreams as a subject for se- rious investigation, says H. Addington Bruce in the Outlook. Until then I had shared the opinion prevailing among laymen -and, It would seem, among most 'scientists also - -that dreams are entirely fanciful and meaningless. But my experieaee was such I could no longer believe this. To state it briefly, It involved the reeurrence of a most bizarre dream. At least twenty times during a period of six months l had the same dleam- namely, that a cut was clawing at my throat. The stage setting and the mi- nor incidents might vary, but always , the central episode was the same, and usually the fury of the dream cat's onset was so great that it would awaken me. Naturally this recurrent dream puzzled me, so much so that 1 spoke about it. Then one day the accident of a heavy cold that settled in my throat led to a medical examination, which, much to m$ surprise, revealed the presence of a growth, requiring imme- diate treatment by tile surgeon's knife.. Some time afterward It suddenly oc- curred to me that since the removal of the daugerous growth 1 had not once been troubled by the cat clawing dream. Its significance now began to dawn on me. L had suffered no pain. not even in- convenience, from the growth in my throat. In fact I bad not consciously been aware of its presence. But up questionably the organic changes ac- companying it had given rise to' seusa• tions whiche slight though they were. had made an impression on my sleep- ing consciousness sufficient to excite it to activity. My recurrent dream consequently was to be regarded as a symbolic representation of the dim' der In my throat -an attempt to inter- pret it, to explain It. And, indeed, even In the dream, for all its fantastic imagery and symbolism, the seat of the trouble was incili'ated plainly enough as I could appreciate after the surgeon had completed his labors. An experience was reported by Al- fred, Maury, one of the earliest scien title investigators of the phenomena of sleep. who dreamed that lie was living in Paris during the Terror and had been put on the proscribed list. After many exciting adventures he was captured, tried and sentenced to execution. He saw himself dragged through the streets amid a elutnoring multitude and forced to mount the scaffold and bare his neck to the fatal blow. Iu that instant as the guillo- tine knife descended be awoke to bind that a piece of the cornice of his bed had fallen and struck him on the neck Testifying even more impressively to the twofold action of the dream proc- ess and to its rapidity Is a dream ex- perience of my own. in this dream I was walking alone at night along a country road. It was lined on both sides by trees which. as I learned from a man who presently joined me, were laden with fruit. I picked some pears and ate thein as we walked and talked. The road seemed to overlook a brand valley in which I gates a soli- tary light. My companion told the that It was in his home and invited me to pass the night with him. After a tir- ing walk we reached the house, a small two room cabin. Be retired into the inner room and 1 went to bed in the outer. 1 had not been long asleep when, in my dreams, 1 was awakened by the noise of somebody running. and the thought instantly flashed Into nay mind that my host was making off with my money. I leaped up shunt- ing, "Stop, stop!" Then I veritably awoke and as 1 did so distinctly heard on the pavement below my window the sound of bur ried footfalls and a voice crying ex- citedly, "Stop, stop!" At once it was clear that these two words, penetrat- ing to my sleeping consciousness, had provided the necessary stimulus 'to set' up a dream •process which, in the frac- tion of a second, bad interpreted them as best it could and had presented the results of its interpretation in the form of a curious little narrative of noctur- nal adventure. Dreams may be produced' by the use of artificial irritants. One sleeper, Whose nose was lightly tickled with a feather, had a horrible dream of a mask of pitch being alternately ap- plied to and drawn violently from his face. Another, at whose feet a hot water bag was placed, dreamed that he was walking over hot la'va, In a second experiment of the same sort the accidental slipping of the cover from. the hot water bag led te. an elab- orate dream of capture and torture by Rocky mountain bandits who insisted that the dreamer knew how to converts copper into gold and held his naked feet in a lire In order to compel him to i valuable scret. int- communicate his va ab e e Ai larly the application of, a slight degre of heat to the feet of a patient with paralyzed limbs was followed by a dream of being transformed into at bear and taught to dance b7 befall placed on red hot iron plate*.

London Spectator. - Although the production of milk is greater than ever before in Ontario, Dairy Commissioner Ruddick states that there fewer mileh cows in the province. The inference is pleasing. All drivers should be careful during the cold weather to warm the iron bits of horses' bridles before slipping them into the animals' mouths. It is unnec- essary to say anything to horsemen about warming bits er anyone who is used to horses, but there are apt to be people who carelessly will slip the cold bits into the horses' mouths with the result that the cold iron will stick to their jaws and tear away the skin. Hold the bit in your warm hands for a few minutes. PROMINENT RAILROAD MAN STRONGLY ADVISES HIS FRIENDS TO TRY - GIN PILl,S FOR THE KiDNEYS "I have been a Pullman Conductor on the C. P.
