The Herald, 1910-07-08, Page 2ADVICE SAO A CHILD. "Help yourself, help yourself, little boy Don't wait for others to wait upon you," Grandma was holding her afternoon chats, Knitting and rocking away as she sat. • "Look at the birds, how they build their own neat! Watch the brown bees, always toiling their best! Put your own hands to the plow if you'd thrive; Don't waste your moments in wishing, but strive." Up in her face looked a mischievous elf; "Don't forget, darling," said she, "help yourself." Afternoon shallows grow drowsy and deep; Grandma was tranquilly folded in sleep; Nothing was heard but the old farm- house clock Plodding along with its warning "tick! tock!" Out from the pantry there came aloud crash; Pussy jumped up from the hearth like a flash, Back to her chair strode this practical .boy, Steeped to the ears in jam, custard and joy- Grinning, oyGrinning, be cried, "Please, I've upset the shelf, Grandma, I minded; I did help mvself." —E.

BABY'S OWN TABLETS CURE SUMMER COMPLAINTS Baby's Owen Tablets should be kept in every home where there are infants and young children, and at first sign of illness during the hot strainer r months they should be given to thea little one. At no time of the year is baby in such danger as in summer. Summer complaints conte on so quick- ly that unless prompt aid is at hand the little one may 1): beyond help in a few hours, The Tablets never fail to relieve the sick child, and if occasional- ly given to the well child they will keep hien well. Mrs. P. Laroche, Les Fonds, Que., says: "Last summer my baby suffered severely from stomach and bowel troubles but the prompt use of Baby's Own Tablets saved hie life." The Tablets are sold by medicine deal- ers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brock- ville, Ont. Improved Drawing inks.

Germany is building her cities as Bis- marck perfected the army before Sado- wn and Sedan; as the Empire is bulding its warships and merchantmen; ;as she develops her waterways and educational syeterns. In cite- building, as in other matters, all selenee is the hand -maiden of pr_litrce. The engineer and the archi- tect, the artist and the expert in hy- glen are alike galled upon to contri- bute to the city's making. The German erities are thinking of to -morrow as well as of to -day. of the genez•ation to follow as well as the generation that is now upon the stage. Germany alone sees the city as the ecntre of the civilization of the future, and Germany alone is building her cities so as to make them contribute to the happiness, health and well-being of, the people. This seems to be the primary consideration. And it is unique in the modern world. --June Busy Main's. Send for free sample to Dept. A. L., N'a• tional Drug S Chemicai Co., Toronto. NEVER SATISFIED.

New Style Foundations. A. new method of constructing the foundations of buildings in order to pre- vent, as much as possible, earthquake shocks from being commurtieated to tho building has been devised and patented by Dr. J. A. Calantarients, of Scarbor- ough, In this system the foundation, which is built in the usual manner, is faced with hard material such as gran- ite or iron, and upon this facing layers of talc, mica or other smooth sub- stances are deposited, each layer being dusted with powdered tale, mica, asbes- tos, soapstone, or•eand, or mats of as- bestos, etc., may be, used. without the plates of tale. Slabs of granite or iron placed on this prepared zone form the base of the superstructure. The object of the arrangement is, in the case of au earthquake, to allow the building to slide laterally. Means are provided for rendering the sorvice pipes flexible at the point where they issue from the ground. g Vet •: 7+. 1 '. ,,1++'fr' le... a,..4.:14,1;,0i, .� �'.fP r`s�giC•-; a /"3�1r •!" wAayyjili erns: �.. .._...met... �.»..

For a number of years army circles have been discussing the advisability of providing for the United States army large horse ranches that will supply the latter with is much-needed war steeds as specially trained army Horses are al- most as necessary to modern warfare as smokeless powder.

One of the longest wharves in the world, almost a mile in length, or to be exact 4,700 feet, is at fort Los Angeles, Cal. It extends into the Pacific in a tong, serpentine curve. 'The reason for this construction.' is that it offers better resistance to the strong currents and the buffetings of the waves than if it were perfectly straight. Until the nearby harbor 01 San Pedro was developed by the Federal Government the big wharf at Port Los Angeles was a very busy place, but of late it is eomparatively seldom used ex- e•epao 'by' the Japanese fishermen, who have £armeia a colony along the adjacent beach, Broin the Scientific American. eoa.
