Thou, p that did'st tow the billows'' pride; Thy mandate to fulfil, 0 speak to passion's raging tide, Speak, and say, "Peace be still!" The writer of this 'hymn, Felicia Dorothea Browne, developed her poet- ic talent out of the 'midst of—perhaps through—sorrow and suffering. She was born into a well-to-do merchant's family in Liverpool, Eng., in 1793 Seven years later her father exper- ienced business reverses and lost prac- tically his whole fortune. Broken-hearted, he was compelled to leave his beautiful home and retire with his family to Abergele in North Wales, where he died soon afterwards, Felicia in the succeeding year sur- prised her family by producing some quite creditable poetry, inspired by the calamities that had befallen them all, From that time on she was al- ways writing, and at sixteen had the satisfaction, of having her "Poems" published, and of seeing the volume obtain a wide circulation. This was the first of a long series of books from her pen, most of which the pub- lic received gladly, some of the sim- pler poems like "The Better Land," and "Graves of a Household," becom- ing almost as well known as anything in. our language. She has an assured .,glace amongst British poets, and but for the saddening circumstances of her life, which caused a plaintive senti- mentalism to appear in most of her writings, might have attained to high rank amongst the best of them, In 1812 she married Captain He - mans, an army officer, who at the close of the Napoleonic wars, was re= tired, when he removed his family, to Bronnylfa, near the little Welsh cathedral city of St. Asaph. Five sons were born to her and after, the birth of the fifth, the Captain left wife and family and went to live in Italy, re- maining there until his death, some years later.. Mrs. Hemans had an allowance from him, however, and with a small income from her writings, was able to keep her family with some degrees of comfort, but her life was saddened and only her religion enabled her to keep on her household duties to her children. In 1827, her mother, who lived with her, passed away, and it was while attending upon her that she wrote her hymn, "Father that in the olive shade," often printed as "0 Thou, Who in the olive shade." 'It was of this sad period ; that shealso wrote our hymn "Fear was within the 'Toss- ing -Bark" as a solace for her troub- led soul. In that 'same year appearl ed her volume"Hymns for Childhood" in which both o fthese hymns were included. After her mother's death, her Welsh home became impossible'to her sensi- tive nature, helped though she was by the friendly sympathy of Sir Wal- ter Scott, the poet Wordsworth, and other literary acquaintances, and she removed her family to Wavertree, 'near Liverpool, ' in 1828. Three years later from family and economic rea- sons she went to Dublin in Ireland. In 1834, her last"Scenes work, and Hymns of Life," was published, dedi- cated to Wordsworth. In this was printed her poem on the `"Funeral' Day of Sir Walter Scott," part of which, "Lowly and solemn be Thy ch.ildrne's cry to Thee," made its way into many of the British and United States hymnals. , The next year, 1835, brought her the ending of Iife. She was accorded burial in St. .Ann's church, Dawson street, Dublin, and her : death : was greatly deplored, especially by the less wealthy classes, among whom she 'ivas a faovrite poet. Her life and works were' published a fe wyears later, edited by Mrs. Hughes, her sister, in seven volumes. Her poems, have had many , reptiblication and have been used a good deal in school Today,' her. hymns are not well known, excepting to older people, the most popular ones fn the hymnals be- ing "Calm on the bosom o fthy God," "Answer me, burning stars of light," "Come to the land of peace," and 'Tear was within the tossing bark." The tune "Allwright," was compos- ed by Mrs. T. J. Musgrove, an Eng- lish organist'"and composer, in the last years of the nineteenth century. Winghallltiil, - Ontario.

Steady Gala of Seriorrs BooksAtt14 bated to Advance In Education. There are growing indications tlh.at. the reading of light fiction is on the wane in England. in place of the light novel the public is showing an increasing demand for more serious books, says the Christian Science Monitor. Public libraries in London, Hampstead, Hackney, Chelsea, Shore- ditch and Middlesbrough agree that book -borrowers are evincing a, higher taste in literature and that best sell- ers do not pull sostrongly as they did right after the war. Thus . at Middlesbrough, for instance, the per- centage of fiction issued from the library in 1927 declined from 71.5 to 61, Moreover of 7,447 new borrowers, 1,309 took out tickets for serious or non-fiction works. , Guy W. Keeling, honorary seere- tary of the Library Association, said: "There is no doubt that the public is reading more and more serious books. This applies particularly to, technical and educational works. ,Im- proved education is doubtless respon- sible." llfr. Marston, secretaryof the Na- tional Book Council, said: "This de- sire on the part of the reading public for more serious works has arisen since the war. Educational and tra- vel books are more commonly asked for,' Works on engineering and like subjects are much in demand." W. H. Parker, chief public libra- rian for Hackney, said: "Young peo- ple particularly are showing a ten- dency toward more serious works. George Bernard Shaw, Sir James Barrie and John Masefield are the authors they prefer in the 'lighter serious' category. "Last year's figures," said the Hampstead public librarian, "showed that only ten percent.' more fiction books wereissued than non frotion. The figures speak for themselves." "I agree with the Middlesbrough librarian's statement," said T. Green of the Shoreditch public library. "There is a general increase in the tope of books from public libraries and the non-$otion works are more than holding their own." "The demand for serious books is not attributable to the fact that peo- ple are growing more serious," said H. H. Quinn, public librarian of Chelsea. "Their improved education is ` responsible." • GREATER LONDON GROWS. Population Shows Tendency to Move. to Surrounding Districts. Greater London numbered 7,807,- 870 persons in 1926, according to the "Statistical Abstract for London, 1917-26," recently published by the London County Council. These fig- ures are estimations based on the port of the registrar -general. The term Greater London -here, used in- cludes not only the administrative county of London, but also the whole of Middlesex county as well as large portions of Surrey, Kent, Essex, and Herts. The population of the administra- tive county of London, or what is generally meant by London,. was 4,615,400 in 1926 and probably drop- ped to about 4,550,000 in 1927. It was "4,524,000'at the time. of the last census in 1921. This falling off since the climax of 1926 is accounted for by the fact that ever since the be- ginning of the nineteenth century the population has shown a decided ten- dency to move out from the centre to the surrounding districts, for while the administrative county shows a de- crease of 31,400 between 1921 and 1926 Greater London shows an in- crease of 270,288 inrthe same period of time. . In the city of London, London's Wall Street district, the population amounted to' only 13,291 in 1927. When one realizes that in 1801 this district counted 128,129 •inhabitants, t the migration to the the extent of g outlying districts becomes apparent. Pianos Are All Right. There were more pianos made and sold in the Old Country during the last twelve months than in any year since 1918. This statement was made the other day by, Mr. S. E. Moon, chairman of the Federation of British Music In- dustries. But he added that there were hundreds of thousands of new houses, which had been built since the war, which contained no musical instruments. With. the boom in gramophones, and the vast strides made by wire- less in recent years, it Is surprising that pianos are keeping their end up so well. But children are still learn- ing music, and in this way there is always a steady demand. Then there are many' people who prefer to make their own music, and so fairer the piano rather than either gramophone or loud -speaker. 111,041111.0 Mainly' For Women (By Dorothy Dix) A .,STRICT ,MOTHER IS A GREAT ASSET TO A GIRL A perfectly nice girl of my acquaint- ance went to the movies with a per- fectly nice young man. After the pic- ture was over, they decided that it was a fine moonlight night for a ride, and the ride, made them hungry and they stoppe't at a restaurant for a bite to eat and to dance, with the result that it was about 3 o'clock in the morning, when they returned home. Upon their arrival at the girl's home they found a mother waiting up for them who had been nursing 'her wrath to keep it warm and who told them in no uncertain terms her opinion 'of young people who stayed out that late and who flatly informed the young man that if he couldn't bring her dau- ghter home at a decent hour he could not take her out at all. But if the mother shows that she regards her daughter as something so infinitely precious that she must watch her with ceaseless viligance, men in- tuitively recognize this and pay horn - 'age to the protected girl as being a little finer, a little better, a 'little more desirable than the girl whose mother has not thought her worth looking after. • Furthermore, mothers may' be very Sure of this: that they are not scar - jag off the marrying men when they keep a wary eye on their daughters and control them. A strict 'moth'er is a guarantee of character to her daughters, and when a man marries he wants a wife -who has been brought up by a mother who had clean-cut ideals : of conduct and . held her dau- ghter to them; who was particular a- bout their associates and knew where they went and 'what . they did, and who guided; them and who kept them. sweet and pure and fit to be the wife of a fine man and the mother of fine children. Inhaling Dangers. Inhaling the smoke of quite a small number of cigarettes . renders one liable to carbon -monoxide poiisoning,. according to Prof. H. Hartridge. Ile found six per cent. of carbon- monoxide in the blood Of a famous scientists, who complained of being unwell,- and who said he had over - smoked and inhaled. This was a day afterwards, and the percentage was probably greater Just after the,emok- ing, says 'a writer in Tit -Rita. Speaking about coal -gals poisoning, Prof. Hartridge said that though coal -gas could easily be detected by its smell, the olfactory mucous mem- brane was soon fatigued, and people could imagine they had go rid of gas in a room when they had not.

His casual step in the girl deepened into, a very real one by the knowledge that She has the sort of home and ```other that a man would like his wife to have had. The other day I asked a young man how he liked a certain dashing young. woman who is visiting in our midst. "Oh," he replied, with a shrug of his shoulders and a cynical smile, "she is pretty and bright enough and loads of fun, but I don't think her mother has .looked after her much. I comm- end these two stories to the attention of those mothers whose alibi for per- mitting their girls to run wild and pet and drink and stay out all ' night is that if they don't do so their daugh- ters will have no dates.

PREPARING BREAKFAST Breakfast, I think, is the least plan- ned of all meals. A great many of us, have got into the habit of hurrying through with an inadequate snack or going without it completely. Either way, ofcourse, is' deplorable because it is neither satisfying nor healthful. Because it is, of necessity, the most, hurried meal of the day there is no reason, however, why it, should not be attractively served and consist of wholesome food. I If possible the table should be set the night before—(it is easy to do this while cleaning up after dinner) —the melon or fruit placed on ice, and the cereal and bread placed con- veniently and the coffee measured for instant preparation in the. morning. It' is surprising how simple this preparation becomes and how much better everyone feels after , a break- fast served quickly without the or- dinary nervous rush.
