HEALTH EDUCATION
BY DR. J. J. MIDDLETON
TON
Provincial Board of Health, Ontario
Dr. Middleton will be glad to answer questions on Pubils Health . :ea
tcrs throu&h this column. Addeass him at the Parliament Bld: s,
Toronto.
In an address at the Canadian Na -
Venal Exhibition this year, 1:Ion. Dr.
'Cody, of St. Paul's Church, Toa onto,
srteitod that educatitm was the mast
important undertaking of a govern-
ment to -.day. This is 'admitted, but
Dr. Oody might have gone further and
stated ,that of all branches of elibea-
eion, that of Public Health wale in the
;forefront in point of importance. If
the education of the child in its early
years is direetod along the Iines of
health habits it will prepare it both
in ctreuigth of ;body and of mind to
receive a,general education in reading,
writing ani ar'itltanette and all the
higher education to follow, Of course
,there are exceptional eases w'here
children of pour, physique have turned
out to be exceptionally briiltant
etudalnts, but tlris• to some extent is
due to over-€Uevelepnvent of the mind
in spiite of weakness of the body.
It behooves all educational and
health authorities, therefore, to re -
glad public dteaith education as one
of the fundamental necessities in the
teaching of the young. Observations
have shown, for instance, that the
child who gods to bed early, who
eleeps in a well-venitileuted room and
rises early, who cleans his teeth daily
and drinks cold water 'between meals,
who eats piain, seinstantial foods,
drinks milk' and avoids tea, coffee,
pastry, candy, .pies, etc., and who
spends definite times each day in out-
door play and exercise, who bathes
regularly and attends to Ins personal
hygiene is in a far better state of
mind .and, body for study than their/ek-
e-dal/deal, slovenly boy or girl who
]snows or cares nothing about health
nabs is.
To diffuse. this very necessary
health education, all sorts of attrac-
tivo measures will trove to be adopted,
.somo of which are already in use.
These include health talks by docto' s,
moving picture shows, and practical
demonstrations and clinics by Public
Health and School nurses,

BABY'S OWN TABLETS
Once a mother has used Baby's Own
Tablets for her little ones she will use
nothing else. Experience teaches her
that the Tablets are the very best
medicine she can give her baby. They
are a gentle laxative; mild but thor-
ough in action and never fail to banish
cohetipation, colic, colds or any other
of the many minor ailments of child-
hood. Concerning then Mrs. J. Bte.
Charest, St. Leon, Que., writes:—"My
baby cried continually and nothing
seemed to help her till I began using
Baby's Own. Tablets. These Tablets
soon set her right and now I would not
be without them" The Tablets ere
sold by medicine dealers or by mail at
25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams'
Medicine Co., Brockville, Oat. •
A Combing Mill Needed.
The woollen industry of Canada is a
basic induetry and should be a domi-
nant factor in the production of wealth
for our Canadian people. Sheep rais-
ing, when properly encouraged, will be
one of the most profitable departments
of our agricultural life. The bulk of
wool produced in Canada during the
past has, through lack of a combing
nail, been exported to foreign coun-
tries where, after being combed, it has
been shipped back to our worsted
mills at a greatly increased value.
Something like twenty -tout' million
(24,000,000) pounds of wool was grown
in Canada last year. This quantity is
sufficient to provide for something like
eight million, (8,000,000) sults of
clothes, which would sell for in the
neighborhood of Four hundred Million
DaiIars ($400,000,000). If the various
processes of manufacture were com-
pleted in Canada this large mem 'would
be set circulating in Canada through
thousands of people employed in the
combing and spinning of the we,.ol, the
weaving at the cicth and the tailoring
and selling of the finished product.
The establishment in Canada of a
wool combing mill would prove a tre-
mendous benefit to the country as a
whole and would undoubtedly receive
the whole -hearted support of the Do-
minion and Provincial governments,
textile manufacturers and breeders of
sheep.
r. Turning Night Into Day.

only 'blossoms after night has, fallen,
and then withers before dawn cones,
is the cereus. Except at the time it
blooms, tbie plant, which is ono of the
few. that turn night trite day, is not at
all attractive in appearance. What
you see is nothing more than a leaf-
less, distorted tangle of discolored
and repellent vegetable fibres.
But when this, unpromising 111550 ot
roots does break into blossom, it
throws out flowers as beautiful as they
are deliciously scented. The bud be-
gius to unfold a little after dusk, and
in an hour or two it has grown toa
large flower several feet in circutnfer-
mice, which at midnight is brown and
orange and white, and fills the air
with a heavy tropical scent like a cone
pound of fresh franglpahni, roses, and
tiger lilies. An hour or so betore
dawn the flowers begin to fade, and
botor0 breakfast, the plane is unlit an
apparently withered heap.

Shelling Ships to Save Them.
Most people are aware that oil has
a remarkable effect on the waves of a
stormy sea. Many a ship has beeal
]sept afloat in a tempest by her crew
pouring overboard part of the oil that
termed her cargo.
The reason why oil has this wonder-
ful effect is that it floats upon the
water, and that it spreads itself into
a very thin film over an enormous area.
A pint of oil will cover more than an
acre of water. This floating film acts
as a kind of insulation, preenting the
wind from acting fully upon the water.
The waves decrease in size, and
soon a comparative calm results.
An idea has been developed recent-
ly which niay result in tho saving of
numbers of hard-pressed ships. Coast.
guard stations around the British Isles
are to be proided with gene which
fire shells filled with oil.
If distrestr signals are seen by the
watchers, the gun willbe taken to the
nearest possible point to the ship.
Shells will then be. fired, aimed to
,strike the water ahead and astern of
her. As each falls it will burst, allow-
ing its, contents to spread over the
face of the sea. In this way the ship
may be enabled to last oat until the
lifeboat can reach her.

The Boy Scouts of Fort William,

local Rotarians in that vicinity the
splendid worth of Scouting to the com-

Rotary Club. At 0 recent demonstra-

gathering of Rotarians, one of the well-
known doctors of Fort William pro•
nounced the bandaging and other de-

have been done "without a flaw."
Scoutmaster Cooper vividly closcrib•
ed the heroic action of two of the local
Scouts in. rescuing another fellow
Scout frail] drowning during the lat-

the hope that they would shortly be
presented with the Scouts' life-saving
modal and also the Royal Humane
Society's medal. Hearty and prolong-
ed cheers from the Rotarians present
greeted this announcement.
President Jackson of the Rotary
Club thanked the Scouts for their
Splendid entertainment and many
times reiterated that co-operation and
help in the splendid work would ever
be the aim of the local Rotarians.

and would often be down in bed for
days at a time. In the last live years
there was not a Limo that I didn't feel
those rhennlotic pains all through my
body. Abcut two months ago 1 got
very much worse and my arms and
legs were so bad I was almost help-
less and couldn't even hold a pen to
sign my name. I was so weak I could
not do any housework. I couldn't
even sleep, autl had no rest day or
night, Even to walk a few steps would
tire me out completely, When I tried
to walk •lt little way and eat down I
could not get up without some one
helping me. I had no appetite and
hardly ate enough to keep me alive. I
could net stoop over far enough to
get my shoee on.
"I never knew what a night's sloop
