In him. therefore, the 50000 in the blockhouse awakened no very novel feelings, But the case was dif- ferent with Cap: rude, opinionated, dogmatical, and boisterous, the old sailor was little accustomed to view even death with any approach to the gravity which its importance de- mands; and notwithstanding all that has passed, and his real regard for his brother-in-law, lie now entered the room of the dying man with much of that callous unconcern Which mita then fruit of long training in „ school that, while it gives se many lessons in the sublintest troths. generally wastes its adnioni- tions 00 scholars who are. little (Es - posed 10 profit by them.. the warn, t al :❑ i. ,... ▪ .,•., r ti.),:;.1 t,t,:e .. it : e 7 l,-:. „t -:,at 1 .. , +.sots:.

CANADA'S AIRCRAFT Being Built More Quickly With New 21 'Ib. Tool A tricky problem of aircraft pro- duction has been solved by a new portable tool weighing only 21 Ms: On all )modern aircraft, thousands of nut plates are used for securing cowlings, fairing strips, inspection panels, instruments, and control runs, Formerly, for every one of these nut plates, three rivet ]toles had to be marked otr and drilled 01" jlarately, a slow and tedious busi- ness. To -day in one swift and simple' operation, the new portable tool drills two holes, accurately spared and centred. This novel two -spindle portable drill, designed in Britain, is power- ed by the "Mighty Atom" pneumatic motor, Many thousands of which are o ries of •1)f factories h aircraft f .•e, i the a i use n n Britain, the Emigre countries, anti the United States, PROFESSIONAL CARDS MEDICAL SEAFORTH CLINIC Dr. E.
