While a number of cars have been sold from the floor of the show, the ohief result has been the awakening of .a Dew interest in the motor car models. "Eighty per cent. of those who have visited this show are prospective pur- chasers," one salesman told the M,sil and Empire. "They have not come to buy a car nor do they expect to buy a car in the near future, but each one of them knows the car he wants to buy and in this modem day of pro- gress it is altogether probable that his aspirations will be realized." "It is impossible to estimate the value of this motor show in figures at the present time," was another opin- ion. "We have sold a few cars here.

L1ESSbN FOR FEB UARY 3rd Golden Text—Psalm 11 The writer of this psalm wrote rap- turously about nature but he could not leave the subject there for hl was not a mere nature worshipper. He so looked at nature as to convince himself that somewhere there was something yet richer, more of the quality of God. David, looking a'pori all the stellar host and all the solar day, said: "There is more—there is a law; there is a nearer approxima- tion to mind than mere stars can ever make; watch, and listen, and pray. He found a "law," a "statute," a "testimony," a "commandment" (ver- ses 7, 8). There is one peculiarity about these verses which ought to be clearly noted—every word can be proved to be either true or false. "The law of the Lord is perfect." Had 'that been a phrase complete in itself, it might have admitted of dis- cussion, but it is only part of a sen- tence, the remainder being "convert- ing the soul." There we come upon ground which can be tested. It is not difficult to see a parallel between the action of the heavens upon the earth and the action of the law upon human nature. Does the earth give signs of gladness, because the sun has come? As surely as such is the case is i` ay;,i8that man, affected by the law, the testimony, the statute, the command- ment of the Lord, is restored, beauti- fied, enriched, rand brought to his true and very self as God meant' hie, to be. So the psalm is a grand picture of nature, and a grand recognition of revelation; still, it is incomplete. It wants another touch and that is ex- perience. The Psalmist begins to mourn and complain and to feel his awn infirmity, and to desire divine sympathy and direction (verses 12-14). "Then I shall join the choral harmonies of creation; mine shall not be the one discordant note in crea- tion's infindbel anthem; then all Thy. works shall praise Thee."—(Condens- ed from The People's Bible). 2 Tim. 3:14-17. Timothy when a child had been taught the scriptures by his mother and grandmother; and be had been confirmed in them by the instructions of Paul. In this part of to -day's son his teacher urges him to continue in the things which he had learned for they "are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus."

WAS ALWAYS AILING NEVER FELT WELL Health Restored Through the Use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. "I am one of the many who have found new health through the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills," Says Mrs. Everitt Dowe, South Nelson, N. B. "For some years I never felt well, and at times was so weak that I would be confined to bed. At the very best I was in an ailing condi- tion and found it difficult at all times to do my housework. I was subject to 'headaches, poor appetite, breathless at the least exertion, and very pale. Before Dr. Williams' Pink Pills were recommended to me I had •tried sev- eral medicines, but without any good results. I had become completely dis- couraged and felt that I wouldalways be an invalid. A friend strongly urg- ed me to take Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and finally I consented to do so, but without much hope that they would help, where other medicines had failed. But in this, to my joys, I was mistaken. I had not been taking the pills very long when I knew they were helping me. As I continued their use I• found my appetite im- proving, I slept better at night, and my strength was gradually returning. I continued taking the pills for sev- eral moiiths, when I again found my- self a well woman, and I believe that had it not been for Dr. Williams' Pink Pills I would to -day be a help- less invalid, The }pills (lave sir4oe been taken by others in our family, with the same beneficial results. I strongly urge every weak woman to try this grand health -building medi- cine." If you will send your name and address to The Dr. Williams' Medi- cine Co., Brockville, Ont., a little book, "Building Up the Blood," will be mailed you postpaid. You can get these pills through any medicine dealer or by mail at 50c a box from The Dr. Williams' Medi- cine Co., Brockville, Ont. EXERCISE AND REST Particularly during the wllpter months, it appears to be necessary to remind many persons of the need for daily exercise of the body. Exercise tends to strengthen the muscles of the body, including the heart which is a muscular organ. Exercise deep- ens and increases respiration, produc- es heat, induces perspiration, and de- velops the motdr and sensory nerve centres of the brain. If the food which we eat is to be properly digested and used for the nutrition of the body, we must exer- cise; if the elimination from bowel and kidney is to be kept in proper order, we must exercise. It is per haps a good working rule to say that the normal individual should exercise to the point of perspiration once a day. We should walk sometimes in place of riding, play some games and spread them throughout the week, not concentrate them all on Saturday. On the other hand, we should not forget the need of rest. Perhaps there are more of us, in need of rest than of exercise. Children require a great deal of rest, freedom from ac- tivity, and long hours of sleep in or- der that they may grow and develop healthy minds in healthy bodies. The adult needs rest in order to repair the wear and tear of daily life, and to prepare for the days ahead. A quantity of our activities are without any particular interest to us. They are 1•arg:ly a matter of doing some- thing, an evidence of our inability to be still, and to enjoy ourselves quiet- ly and restfully in relkiation. We must realize that the possibili- ties of health depend, in large meas- ure upon ourselves. If we would rave health, we must be prepared to make the necessary effort to secure the ex- ercise we need and to establish habits of living which permit of sufficient rest and sleep. Neglect means less health if not actual disease; it means living our lives below the standard which we are capable of attaining. It means more worry and less happi- ness. Health is worth the effort, but we must make the effort ourselves. Questions, concerning Health, ad- dressed to the Canadian Medical As- sociation, 184 College Street, Toron- to, will be answered personally by letter. unprecedented demand for coal. All existing mines were worked to ca- pacity and otber mines which had been abandoned were again put into working order, and even new pits de- veloped in South Yorkshire, Noting - ham and Kent. Wihile the war lasted nobody thought about the coal prob- lem. It seemed that the very win - work is sometimes• eyed askanse as a - revolutionary demand, but it is nothing else than a plain corollary of the right to live. For life without work is as d'egr+ading to the personall character as it is costly to the come munity." As to the mines themselves, cer- tain reforms will have to be made. ning of the war depended' on coal. Each mining district may be organ - Nor was there any appreciable slackening after the war. For two or three years the boom continued, but in 1922 the collapse came. Since then there have been two or three flickers of activity, one following the short- age created by the coal strike, and the other caused by temporary stop- pages of output in the Ruhr. When it was plain that the coal industry ized both f r selling and for produc- tion as a si e e onomic unit. Un- profitable mines will have to be tilos- ed down and a quota of production fixed for each mine and each district. The Northern and Scottish coal fields have already adopted such a schema and South Wales will probably he driven to follow suit. But more than this is necessary.

Hio'bson„ the British economist, says in the Nation, that of the million miners now out of work, one quarter are destined never to work in a British mine again. The old pits will not reopen. What is to become of this quarter of a million? Some months ago Premier Baldwin made an •appeal to employers gener- ally, to make jobs for workless min - world selling. For the home market the demand is for the elimination. of waste. The spread between prices at the pit mouth and the consumers'. grate or boiler is too great. There is local price manipulation" which, of course„ presses most heavily on the very poor who must buy in small quantities. In short, the English coal industry must be revolutionized. ers, but since there are a million un- employed in other trades, it isnot surprising that few miners have been set at tasks for which they are un- trained. What is to be done? In the opin- ion of Mr. Hobson, the British Gov- ernment as soon as it realizes the futility of private charity, will pro- ceed to pension off the old miners, and educate the younger ones, fitting them for other occupations that are available. There may be considerable emigration. There is a Road Fund which is to .be employed in the con- struction of great arterial raods across England. This may provide work for many thousands. Local authorities must be given larger credits to undertake public works in prosperous districts. "There is," he says, "a plain economic as well as a moral obligation on the state not merely to keep these deitute people 1' b t to maintain their health and to find work for them. The right to NATIONAL MOTOR SHOW CROWDS EXPECTED TO TOTAL OVER 60,000 • Crowd records at the National Mo- tor Show were swept away Friday night. With the evening at its height it appeared as though all Toronto had instigated an invasion erg masse on the top floors of the Simpson build- ing. Throngs pressed through the doors and for a while it was neces- sary to bring additional elevators in- to play to meet the demand. Between the hours of eight and nine o"clock well over 5,000 people were viewing the display. Gaily -at- tired crowds coming out of the ca- baret met newcomers who had braved rain and slippery pavements, while until a late hour a steady stream of tickethoiders filed into the elevators to swell the throngs. Friday saw the admissions not only reach the 50,000 mark but soar above it to a point where Mr. Cavan, chair- man of the show, was able to assert confidently that the total attendance for the year would be well over sixty thousand. Special arrangements have been Special arrangements were made for handling a larger crowd of visi- tors than ever on Saturday, which provided the last opportunity for the eleventh -hour patrons to see the ex- position. As was previously an- nounced, the display is to be given over during the morning to the chil- dren. The officials have spared no pains in providing for the accommo- dation of young Toronto.

One million pounds is now available for the relief of the unemployed and starving British coal miners, which works out at the rate of about a pound for each destitute person. The re- sponse to the appeal for help, stimu- lated by the warm personal interest the Prince of Wales has shown, has been magnificent. Yet it only em- phasizes the futility of private and public benevolence in a sphere where the hard head rather than, the warm heart is required. A few years ago the Government contributed about 20,000,000 pounds to the coal mining industry. This was required, and for the moment other contributions, rathe er than vital changes in the industry, are required. But the truth is that not only the miners who are out of work are suffering, but that the Eng- lish coal industry is dying. Like a famous king it may take an uncon- scionable time about it, but there seems to be no doubt of the eventual end. The time will no doubt come when there will be no more mining of coal in England. The time has already come when certain pits are not worth operating. Had operations ceased as soon as it hemline economi- cally unprofitable perhaps the pres- ent crisis would have been mitigated. It seems certain that many of the pits whose closing down has thrown a mil- lion out of work will never again re- open. To a certain extent the British min- ing industry is a war casualty. Be- fore 1914 the growing demand for oil and hydro -electric energy as sources of power had been noted, and coun- tries at one time dependent upon l;ng- land for coal had opened up supplies of their own. There was. a Awaken- ing in the British coal business. Ger- many and the UnitedStates were be- coming more and more formidable competitors of the British coal est - porters. But for the war these tend- encies would have continued normally. The leas profitable mines would nava closed down, and the miners thus left unemployed would probably Serve drifted into ether ocoupatlono.
