General `enlistiano Car Ilan the head of the so-called Constitu- tionalist forces: in Mexico, who may succeed to the Presidency, is about as civilized a gentleman as -the pre- sent dictator, who waded through the blood of the Maderos to the place of power, Here is e descrip- tion of (din by, one who claims to know him: There' is one : particularly nice thing. about,.Carranza. He Cam' or- dor a man shot in as delicately courteous manner as though he were begging the favor of ,the next dance. ,. "My)clear old friend," he said to Jose Sanchez not long ago, "I am warm within ane for the pleasure of seeing, you." Senor Sanchez had been a neigh- boy of'Geneal`Carra:nza's in their State of Coahuila. But Sanchez took the ,other end of Mexican poli- ties. In one. way and another'i he had been stn annoyance to the Car- renza forces. "I regret that we• have been un- avoidably separated for so great :a period," said Senor Sanchez, po- litely. • .They.;talkedfor a time about,their one-time neighbors. Neither men- tioned, politica. When Carranza ose to. leave he shook hands warm- , and conveyed to Senor Sanchez surances of his most distinguish - regard. • Ten minutes later his old friend hada handkerdhief is eyes, and was facing a pit, - k wall.

It isnot a good thing for people with' a tendency to `have pimples and a blotohy complexion to shear themselves with greasy ointments In fact they couldn't do anything. worse, becaueo'the grease clogs the pores of the skin, making the dis- ease worse. When 'there is an i1'ri- tating'raslr it soothing bored° wash may help allay the pain or itching, but of course it doesn't cure the trouble. Skin, complaints arise frons :an impure condition' of the blood and will -persist until the blood is purified. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have cured many cases. of eczema and Skin diseases because they 'make new, rich blood : that drives out the impurities, clears the skin and imparts 'a glow of health., The following proof is offered, Mrs. Fred Tremble, Gunter, Ont.; pays: "For more than a year I was steadily afflicted with salt rheum or eczema, My hands were so sore that I, could not put them in water without the skin cranking open. I tried all sorts 'of ointments recom- mended for the trouble, but they did not do me. a particle of good. I was told Dr. Williams' Pink Pills would cure the trouble, and began taking them. I took the Pills steadily for six or eight weeks, and they completely cured the trouble. Tbis..was several years ago, and I have never been bothered with it since." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills aro' sold by all medicine dealer•s or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams' Medi- cine Co., Brockville, Ont. RELIGIONS OF THE PEOPLE. Changes in Their Standing In Ton Years. To those interested in the study of figures, and after all who is not, the census return$ of the religions of the, Canadian people recently published will afford many hours of careful consideration. Of the total population of the Dominion of '7,208,643, as taken in 1911, our Roman Catholic friends number a little over one-third, the figures be - ng 2,833,041 Of the Protestant de- ominations the curious fact is ap arcnt that the Methodists, who numerically ranked second in 1901, axe now third, having changed' places with our Presbyterian friends. The Church of England in'the -ten years has, however, made the greatest strides, due possibly to the large immigration of English eople in recent years, and' at the ext census it will not be surpris- ng if the figures show that they are he strongest Protestant denomi- ation. The comparative statement of gures of the principal religious rodies _is certainly worthy of con- ideration. It is as follows: 1911. 1901. loman Catholics, 2;833,041 2,229,600 'resbyterians 1,115,324 842,442 ethodists 1,079,892 916,886 nglicans 1,043,017 681,494 aptists 382,666 318,005 utherans 229,864 92,524 reek Church - 88,507 15,630 ews 74,564. , 16,401 Mennonites , 44,611 31,797 engrogationalists 34,054 28,293 Looking at' the record by pro- nces it is observed that Quebec en's a total number of Roman atholics of 1,724,883; Ontario, 84,997, and Neva 'Scotia. and New runswick, each about 145,000.

Britain now possesses a full squadron of eight battleships of the, superdread'noetght type, the most compact and powerful fighting force in the world. These eight ships, which mount in the aggregate eighty 13.5 -inch guns and one "hundred and twenty-eight four -inch guns, cost the British na- tion something over $70,000,000, but after all they form only a part of the British fleet. The Ajax, the commissioning of which completed this squadron, was the eighteenth battleship of the Dreadnought era to take her place in the' fleet that guards Britain's coasts, and it is less than eight years since the first Dreadnought was laid down. Bri- tain has therefore spent in battle- 'ships and battle -cruisers alone in those eight years upward of $.150,- 000,000, and each year her ships each being an improvement over the last, are costing her more. Here Is a Sure Cure For All Throat Trouble To.eure an ailment in the throat or chest, to rout out Catarrh or Asthma, it is essential that the medicine be conveyed direct to the affected parts. This is why no other remedy has achieved such world-wide success as Catarrhozone, "No one ever contracted a more ob stinatc attack of nasal catarrh than I suffered a month ago," writes Mr. G. E. Root, a well-known resident of Bridgetown, W.I. "My head ached erriflcally. I sneezed about every hree minutes, but still my nostrils ere entirely closed and I .couldn't reathe through them. Ten minutes nhaling Catarrhozone gave me a little chef, so I continued to use Catarrh - zone every hour, and before the day as out 'I had Improved. Catarrh. zone quickly cured me.

A. buted for planting on the farms of Alberta, Saskatchewan and Mani- toba.. To accommodate this con- stantly increasing demand, a branch nursery has recently been established near Saskatoon. Nine inspectors supervise these prairie - farm plantations, and give personal advice to the farmers, and the For- estry Branch, Ottawa, issues bul- letins free of charge to anyone in- terested in this work in Canada or elsewhere. A new bulletin is now available at the Forestry Branch, Ottawa, describing some ,simple and inex- pensive methods of preserving fence -posts from decay. It has been found that the generous ap- plication of hot creosote to well - seasoned posts stripped of bark, even when only painted on with a brush, will add at least ten years to the life of the least durable woods. Many common Canadian woods .which hitherto decayed too rapidly to be used are thus made available for fence -posts. The sav- ing in first cost and transportation more than balances the cost of treatment, while the cost of placing the post will be much lass when considered as an annual charge. Probably the strongest timber in the world is a species of eucalyptus, known as yate, which grows to a considerable size in Australia. Its average tensile strength is 24,000 pounds per square inch; in other words a bar of this wood one inch square will (in theory, at least) hold up a weight of twelve tons. This is equal to good cast iron. No similar tests of Canadian woods have as yet been made, but at the Forest Products Laboratories, re- cently established by the Dominion Government at McGill University, it is proposed to investigate the mechanical properties of native tree -species, with a view of deter- mining, on a scientific basis, their utility for structural work, 'Useful Infolmiation Issued by DO, minion Forestry Branch. There are now twenty-seven tech- nically trained foresters in the per- manent employ of the Dominion Forestry Branch. The library of the Forestry Branch, Ottawa, contains over 1,200 volumes and more than 4,500 photographs of forestry work in Canada and elsewhere. Over 789,000,000 shingles, one- half of the entire shingle produc- tion of Canada in 1912, were man- ufactured in B.C. Western red cedar was used exclusively. Stopping ground -fires :n the for- est by trenching can now be easily and quickly done by planting a long string of dynamite cartridges in advance of the fire, at intervals of two feet, When these are' ex- ploded simultaneously by means of an electric current, the result is a ditch four feet wide. and two feet deep, which effectually stops the fire. The ghostly glimmering of poplar - ships and stumps, • frequently ob- served in Canadian forests at night, is due to a fungus known as the 'shoe -string' fungus, which is com- monly found on large-sized poplars throughout Canada, It causes a yellowish -white rot which detracts much from the value, of this wood. Time .presence of this fungus is ex- ternally indicated'.,by the mush- room -like fruiting: bodies which cluster around • the ^ base of the trees.' Infected trees should, when possible, be cut dodn and used for fire -wood.

We of to -day are more careful of the nutritive •values of our food than were our ancestors. The stress and strain of modern times entails that duty upon us. Whe- ther we are healthier or happier is a question. As a; food eggs have always been valued. It is not gen- erally known; 'however, that to brain workers and to those whose work demands concentration of their thinking powers 'there is no bigger nerve -feeder than the hum- ble egg. Scientists aver that 'a chemical substance called lecithin is vitally important to the life of the nerve centres. - It is the' undine expenditure of this substance that causes brain -fag and general nor you's collapse. Many nerve special- ists prescribe lecithin to their ,pa tients, the dose, being, fifteen grains it day in all. The yoke of an •aver age sized egg contains sixteen grains of lecithin, so that one egg eaten, every day oontafns sufficient, nerve tonic to enable the functions of the brain to keep at concert pitch.
