How natural that religious leaders should seek to perpetuate these prac- tices of partial or total fasting and then ithe eating of fish rather than other meats as a religious observance, to r€tain .the benefits 'formerly ex- perienced.

'Following an all-night search insti- tuted when he failed to return to the home of his father-in-law, Thomas Pickering, in Mount Forest, whom he had been visiting, the body of J. L. Yule, Musical Supervisor' of Guelph Schools, was found in the Saugeen River, at the edge of the town, early Friday ':morning. Mr. Yule under- went an operation in Guelph last De- ceni•ber, and had been granted' leave of absence from his duties, owing to continued ill -health. Mr. Yule . was a native of Harriston, was widely known in musical circles. He went to Guelph a„year and a half ago from Kitchener, Where he had been musical director at the Collegiate Institute, to supervise the musical education of children in the local schools at the time Edward Johnson,' famous tenor, established a fund of $25,000 in the city for that ,purpose. Prior to going to Kitchener he had been organist of First Presbyterian Church, Seaforth, and . also at Owen Sound, and had taken post graduate work in music In the United States and Europe. Sur- viving are his widow and two young children.

Although being afflict- ed with a lingering disease for nearly two years previous, she was around as usual, when suddenly seized with a cold which proved too much for the frail body. The funeral services were held at the home on Saturday, April 19th,, conducted by her pastor, Rev. W. P. Lane of the North Side United Church, who spoke very feelingly of the deceased, as a keen and attentive listener and regular attendant to Sun- day School. The Sunday School ciass of which she was a member, attended in a body and led in the singing of her favorite hymns. She leaves to mourn her demise, her . mother, step -'father, three brothers, Jim of Toronto, Char- ley and George, at home, and two sisters, •l'fay and Helen, Her father predeceased her some eleven years ago. Interment was made in Wood- land cemetery, Mitchell. Her pall- bearers were Chas. Cndmore, Will Cudmore, Jack Stevens and I. Hud- son. GOOD . ENTERTAINMENT. The original Eckardt's Swiss Bell Ringers and Musical Revue Company played to a fair house in Oardno's opera hell on Monday night last ow- ing to bad weather which prevented many from attending. However those who were present were well repaid, the program providing plenty of en- tertainment, music, fancy dancing, etc. Chas. Conqueror and Teddy Cur- tis, the female impersonators who' were formerly with the well known "Duntbells," appeared at their best in their songs and fancy dancing num- bers and were repeatedly recalled. Barnard Eckardt proved to be as good a musician as his celebrated father, who first 'appeared' in Cardno's hall about thirty years ago. Theother comedians with the company.. provided the audience with amusement during the evening. Owing to the rather small turnout the Company will pay another 'visit to Sea'fort'h after the summer vacation when they will be assured of a bumper house.

'But with advancing knowl- edge of physiology, with accumulat- ing evidence that.one after another of these once trusted remedies actually injures the body however much it may do in the way of temporary relief, physicians are more and more turning to daily habits of diet, exercise, cleansing and rest as the means by which health is to be retained or re- gained. :k * * In recent years eminent medical men like Sir Arbuthnot Lane in England and Dr, J. H. Kellogg of have stressed Creek a e s ssed the im- portance of a clean bowed as the foundation of good health, and the filth of a clogged bowel as the under- lying cause not only of most colds and minor ailments but also of many of the more serious' troubles that cause premature 'break -down and death. * * * Sir :Arthbuthnot Lane did much to popularize the use of paraffin oil as a means of maintaining a clean bowel. But to some of us even the most tasteless of paraffin oil is not pleasant to take, and observation of people who have depended upon it seems to support the opinion that its habitual use tends to produce an anemia. Con- sequently thinking people have looked for something better and safer. • k * In recent years the 'something better' has been found. It is the in- soluble 'roughage' which nature pro- vides in the skins and in the very cell coverings of every vegetable and fruit. :Experiments on monkeys at Har- vard University have shown that even finely ground wood fibre in the forret of blotting paper would serve to main- tain a wholesome condition ofthe di- gestive tract and bowel when the diet was such as otherwise to produce de- generative catarrhal conditions, * * * In loving remembrance of Jean Pinder, Another home is lonely made, Another flower was doomed to fade, Another Angel, bright and fair, Has gone to climb the golden stair.
