Poland is preparing to turn the energies of war to peaceful missions es soon as possible, and plana already are under way for demobilization of the army, which has been in the field fighting the Russian Soviet forces nearly two years, says a 1Varsaw des patch. Throughout the country the press optimistically predicts a quick trans- formation 01 the country from a war ring nation to a laud of freedom and prosperity, Premier Vincent Witos, who rose to leadership of the Peas- ants' party from a poor• Galician; wood- oboppor, is most hopeful eegardtug the future of Poland, "Poland needs peaceful develop- ment to heal the wounds of war and pave the, way for recoustructon of the country,” tho Premier deciareti in a recent speech. "Therefore, the gov- ernment will direct itself entirely to- ward improving economic and social conditiots, Economo Situation Not Desperate. "I have just rotu rod from a trip through the state. The present eco- nomic situation Is diliicult, but not desperate." Premier Wiles said he expoetce nature of the final peace treaty with- in a few weeks unless the Soviets snake some difficulties, but declared he did not look for 00011 action. The peace prelintitutrlce, M. Witos con- tinued, were not entirely satisfactory to Pellet aspirations, as a great num- ber of Poles were left outside the Polish frontiers, yet they satisfy Po- land's spirit of moderation and her tle- sire to end the war, while giving Po- land free breathing Apace in tiro East. The League of Nations Commission of Control, which has been in Vilna, where a provisional government was established after its recent seizure by troops under command of the insur- gout Goueral Zellgouslti, has arrived in \Versate. The Commission went, to Vilna to obtain statements from the provision- al government there of its side of the case. Its visit to Warsaw is for the purpose of conferring with President P]lsudski, Premier Witos, Foreign Minister Sapieha and others, in an at- tempt to reach a solution of the prob- lent caused by the seizure of the city from the Lithuanians. The commission also is continuing consideration of the Polish -Lithuan- ian territorial dispute. At Vilne the league emissaries heard the support- ers of the now state, listening to Gen- eral Zel]gouski and others. While the conference was in progress there was a demonstration outside the building that caused alarm until it was learned the crowd wished to display its friendliness both to General Zeilgou- eki and the members of the commis- sion. Press Assails League. Some of the newspaper criticisms of the League of Nations have been more severe than usual. The league's decisions concerning disputed districts have been unpopular on one side or the other, but the commission mem- bers have been shown courtesy by governments and individuals every- where. The Poles are extending their lines toward the boundary set by the ar- mistice, which is shortly to become effective, and have' reached the town of Kr•zywicze (probably I rzyvche, on the old Galician boundary southeast of Lemberg). In the advance, Russian regimental commanders have_ been taken prisoner by the Polish forces. Ten Conunandmentss of Selling. 1.

A Swiss aviator has recently been In combat with another bird of pass- age—a large and powerful eagle. The bird evidently resented pretty strong- ly the aeronaut's entry into his do- neen, for ho gave chase, and annoyed him for some considerable time. Eventually the airman was forced to descend, owing to the bird's persist- ency. Before landing, however, he took every possible means to rid himself of his tormentor, He looped the loop, nose-dived, righted the machine again, completed a serif 1 of circles, but all to no avail. The eagle had him every time. This Incident occurred some 5,000 feet above St. Moritz, and created quite a stir. That birds and insects take more than a passing interest in the strides man has made in the flying world is described by a French naturalist and airman. During the war he was in charge of a captive balloon, and says (hat the numbers of birds and insects attracted to his aerial craft were enormous. They not only came to look, but to stay, and he was thus able to secure many rare specimens, We believe IrIINARD'S LINIMENT is the best: Mathias Foley, Oil City, Ont. Joseph Snow, Norway, Me.

Despite the fact that its existence has never occurred to 99 of 100 users of electricity, the present method of installing electric lighting fixtures in- volves one serious disadvantage. The fixtures are fastened permanently, that is, to walls and Ceilings. In the home, for example, interior decora- tions must often be planned around the illuminating units, when it would be much better to arrange the fur- nishings, and subsequently place the chandeliers and bracket lights, like so many old-fashioned kerosoae lamps, wherever they may be most fittingly installed. And this very flexibility has now been made possible by the invention of a now method of connecting wires and fixtures. Flush with the surface of walls and ceilings, are placed little receptacles which resemble the or- dinary push -plug sockets. From the base of each bracket fixture project two curved arms, like the claws of a hammer, To attach the fixture to any of the numerous wall receptacles, the claws are simply inserted into the slots, and the fixture is brought to horizontal. Use of Bulky Dictionaries Made Easy by New Holder. A book holder, or support, of recent invention, interests unfailingly those who have experienced the awkward- ness of handling, on a small table, a ponderous Bible, dictionary or similar bulky volume. It cousiste of a hori- zontal roller bar, on either side of which is a spring -mounted surface. On these are laid the covers of the book. Whether the book is opened at front, middle, oe back, the tight and left-hand pages will always be level, and at the same height above the table top. The high desire that others may be blessed, savors of heaven. Your Town. Real towns are not made by men afraid Lest someone else gets ahead; When everyone works and nobody shirks You can raise a town from the dead, And if while you make your personal stake Your neighbor mattes one, too, Your town will be what you want it to be— It isn't your town, It's you! If you want to live in the kind of a town Like the kind of a town you like, You needn't slip your clothes in a grip And start on a long, long hike. You will only And what you left be- hind,. For there's nothing that's really new; It's a knock at yourself when you knock your town It isn't your town, it's you! THE FALL WEATHER HARD ON 11TT ONES Canadian fall weather is extremely hard on little ones. One day Is warm and bright and the next wet and cold. These sudden changes bring on colds, cramps and colic, and unless baby's little stomach is kept right the result may be serious. There is nothing to equal Baby's Own Tablets in keeping the little ones well. They sweeten the stomach, regulate the bowels, break up colds and make baby thrive. The Tablets are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr, Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. Authors' Slips. Attention has frequently been called to slips in fact made by great novel- ists. Those who are wisest in the great things of life may need to put in a detail involving some technical point on which they are ignorant. Some of them, like Thackeray, whose method of work seems not to have been mincingly careful, went astray on points of fact, which it is an in- nocent amusement to trach down. In Rachael Esmond Warrington's preface to "Henry Esmond," whioh Thackeray mattes Iter sate 1778, she speaks of the coming of Rochambeau to this continent. Rochambeau did not come until 1780. " Thackeray speaks in "Pendennis" of Mohammed's soldiers cutting of the heads of all prisoners who would not acknowledge that there was but one prophet of God. The truth is, Mohammedans believe in all the prophets of the Bible—Noah, Abra- ham, Moses, Jesus—only they believe that Mohammed is the greatest. Thackeray should have remembered this, for he had read Gibbon. In the "Virginiatts" Chaplain Samp- son is unlawfully arrested for debt during divine service. 'Under the Eng- lish law this could not be, An old of- fender like Sampson would probably have known this much o1 the law, and would hardly have acepted the situation with the resigned question, "At whose suit, Simon?" Clive, in "Tice Newcomers," asks, "'Why have we no picture of the sovereign and her august consort?" The letter in which the question is asked is dated 183—. There was no prince consort until 1840. Some persons think they have caught Defoe napping when he makes Robinson Crusoe (111 his pockets with biscuits before he swims to the wreck. But Defoe was a master of fact. Prob- ably Crusoe kept on his short breeches. Sir Walter Besant, in "The Children of Gibson," makes a new moon rise in the east at two in the morning. It is the old moon that rises in the morn- ing. The new moon appears in the western sky and sets soon atter the sun. Sir hider Haggard describes in "King Solomon's Mines" an eclipse of the new moon, ,an astronomical im- possibility.

Thousands of Canadian housewives are working from day to day on their nerve. They are daily drawing more and more on their reserve strength, knowing full well that they aro using up that vital force which often means life or death in the crisis of disease. They are the victims of a feeling of hopeless exhaustion after the per- formance of even the small tasks which were nnee the simplest and easiest parts of the day's work. They And the appetite failing, sleep is dis- turbed and unrefreshing; they lose weight, sad always feel tired and de- pressed. In this condition a blood - building tonic is needed to restore health and activity, mud for this pur- pose Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are un- surpassed. Often the trouble will have progressed to a point which makes full recovery slow, but the treatment should be persisted in and renewed health and activity will be the result. The case of Mrs. W. Schooley, KR. No. 2, Tilsonburg, Ont., well illus- trates the value of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills in cases of health breakdown, through weak, watery blood. Airs. Schooley says: "Por upwards of five years I felt my strength declining, un- til et last I could not do light chores around the place. Then a doctor was called in, and after doctoring about a month he said that only an operation would help me. I did not feel like go- ing through, this, and decided that in any event I would wait a while. I had no appetite, often had headaches ac- companied by dizzy spells; several times i had fainting spells, and my legs would swell, and I could not even sweep a floor without resting several Ulnas. Again a doctor was called in and he said the trouble was general debility and nervous breakdown. The treatment, however, slid not help me, and then one evening as my husband was reading the paper, he came across a ease inmany respects similar to mine, cured through the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, The next day he got me a supply of the Pills, and to their continued faithful use for several months, I owe my present splendid health, I may say that soon after beginning the use of the pills I felt a gradual improvement in my con- dition, my appetite improved, I began to feel rested atter a night's sleep and I gained in weight. My friends were continually expressing surprise at my improved condition, as it was general- ly believed I had become a ehronlo in- valid. I always take a delight in tell- ing them that Dr. Williams' pink Pints are responsible for my present good health, and es they have been a real blessing to me I shall always continue to praise them." If you. are suffering from any cone dition due to poor, watery blood, or weak nerves, begin taking Dr. Wil- liams' I'tnit Pills now, and note how your strength and health will improve. You can get these pills through any dealer in medicine, or they will be sent by mail, post paid, at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 by The Dr. Williams' 11Iedicine Co., Broekville, Ont. Rough on Nelson. It Was his first trip to London, al- though he was no longer young, But he thoroughly enjoyed the sights and sounds of the busy London streets. In fact, since ho carne from the other side of the border, he enjoyed these more than the cinemas and theatres, where you have to pay to go in. One afternoon he lingered to listen to a smaI1 but hard-working band of alleged musicians who were perform- ing in a small side street. When the "'selection" was ended the visitor to London appt•oacbed the leader of the orchestra and asked bluntly: What's the name 'o that tune ye'vo jets' pleyed?" ' 'The Death of Nelson,' sir," re- plied. the musioan promptly, with vi- sions 01 large tips and requests far ran' cores. "Weel, mon," replied the other, as he shook his head and moved of, "a' I can say is, ye gave him an awful death," Canada's spring wheat crop this year is estimated to be greater than that of the United States.

This calls to mind other superstitions in connection with pre- cious stones, The Royal family of Spain was at enc time possessed of an opal which they considered brought them such bad luck tilat they eventually got rid of R. The story goes that King Al- fonso XII. presented an opal ring to the Queen, Jlercedee, on their wed- ding day, and she died shortly after- wards. He then gave it to his sister- in-law, the Infanta Christina, who also tiled very soon after her acceptance of the gift, The King then wore it him- self, and Ile, too, was in his grave within a brief period. After the King's death, nobody seemed very anxious to wear the opal ring, so the Queen Regent hung It round the neck of the Virgin of the Almudena, at Madrid. ,,,The onyx was at one time credited with malignant powers, the superatt- tious folk of the Middle Ages believ- ing that anyone wearing an onyx would be visited by evil spirits at night, and have troubled dreams. The Ilindoos have a great affection for the cat's-eye, which, they say, greatly strengthens the Anaacial posi- tion of its wearer, Among the Brah- mins the ruby is a very favorite jewel, as they imagine it acts as a charm against Are. The turquoise has been credited with many powers. It is suposed to cheer the spirits of its wearer, and it is also said that, if he sustains a fail, the stone will itself crack, and by its magical influence ward off any injury or fracture to his bones. Live Stock Show. It is said that the proof of the pud- ding is in the eating, and title very aptly applies and is proven in the price received for the best finished live stock at the Toronto Fat Stock Show. In the 1919 show as high as 75e. per 1b., live weight, was paid by auction for cattle, 50c. per lb. for hogs, and 41c. per lb. far lambs. Quality always brings a premium. The attention of the readers is direct- ed to the Eleventh Annual Toronto Fat Stock Show, to be held at the Union Stock Yards, December 9th and 10th, 1920. Submarine Films.
