Often when you think you know a number you have really transposed the two Inside figures. It is so easy to say 3264 instead of 3624! The result is that you get "Wrong Number". You are annoyed and so is the other person. You have wasted your own time and his. It is safer and quicker to use the directory before you call a number, because "Wrong Number" is one of the chief causes of a million calls a day in Ontario and Quebec which go wrong — tie up traffic — cause irritation — block business. Some of these are operators' errors, and some are mistakes by the person making the call. He may ask for the wrong number — he may speak in- distincty and be misunderstood. We want you to have the best possible telephone service. We are constantly striving to provide it by reducing our own errors and by improving equipment.* But it takes three people to com- plete a call. Use the directory — speak slowly and distinctly — avoid wrong numbers — save time — help business efficiency. °To keep a step in advance of demand, and to improve facilities will involve an outlay this yeair in excess of $27,000,000. 1111ks 1/41 Sweet Home 1 Made Sweet er .t Stili . j N.

LESSON FOR SEPTEMBER 29 Lesson Topic—Review; Significan- ce of the ]Exile and the Restoration. Golden Text—Psalm 103:17. July 7th The Story of IEzekiel.— IEzelk. 3 : 4-11; 24; 15-18.,—Ezek. 33: 11. Ezekiel had been five years in ex- ile when God commissioned him to bear a message to his fellow exiles. assuring him at the same time that they might pay no heed to his warn- ings. He was however not being sent at his own charges. He was ever to speak having in remembrance—"Thus saith the Lord God." July 14th—Ezekiel Teaches Pers- onal Responsibility.—Ezekiel 33 : 7- 16.— ' mans 14:12. Ezekiel was appointed to the office of watchman to the house of Israel and was told to warn the people to turn from their evil ways lest they die eternally. He was also told to assure them that God had no pleas- ure in the death of the wicked. .Duly 21st. — Ezekiel's Vision of Hope.—]Ezekiel 47 : 1-8.—Isiah 8:7. In the vision which came to Ezekiel he saw a rising river which symbol- ized the ever increasing power of the gospel. The source, the progress, the size and the service of the river were all types of the gospel of Jesus Christ. July 28th—The Story of Daniell.— Dan. 1 : 1-4; 20 : 2; 17 -24. --Dan. 12- 3. Among all the youths that were carried away into exile at the time of the first Babylonish captivity were four who found special favor with the king. They were trained in all the learning of the court and at the end of their probation were placed among the wise men. In all these years they had faithfully adhered to the service of their God and He re- warded them by revealing to Daniel the dream and its interpretation that the king had dreamed and forgotten. Aug. 4th — Belshazzar's Feast.— Daniell 5 : 17-28.—Ephesians 5:18. At a religious festival Belshazzar and his courtiers were startled by a hand writing on the wall. The wise men were called in but none could read the writing. Then Daniel was summoned and he read and interpret- ed the message which foretold the fall of the king and the empire. August 11th.—Daniel Among the Lions.—Daniel 6:10, 11, 16-23. Psalm 34 :7. Daniel incurred the jealous anger of his associates by the preference which the king showed for hire. Thee could find no fault in his daily per- formance of his work in the state so decided to "find it against him con- cerning the law of his God." They persuaded the king to pass an en- actment that there should be no peti- tion asked of any God or man for thirty days excepting of the king. The punishment for transgressing this was that of being thrown into the den of lions—Daniel would not fail in his daily worship of the Most High and consequently found him- self facing the lions. His God did not desert him and "no manner of hurt was found upon him, because he believed in his God." Aug. 18th—The Return From Cap- tivity.—Ezra 1:1-6; Psalm 126 : 1-6 —Psalm 126:3. When Cyrus King of Persia took over the Kingdom of Babylon G;d stirred up his spirit to restore the captive Jews to their own land and instructed the people of Babylon to assist them by presents of needful things for the journey and for the re- building of the house of God in Jer- usalem. The priests and the Levites led the way and many of the people left the land of their captivity with songs of gladness in their hearts and on their tongues. Aug. 25th—Rebuilding the Temple. —Ezra 3 : 10-13; 6 : 14-16.—Psalm 84 : 1-4.—Psalm 122:1. The captive Jews on their return to the home -land immediately set up an altar to the God of Israel and later on made preparation for their building of the temple. When the foundation was laid some 2rejoiced and others sorrowed. The former had never seen the temple built by Sol- omon but the latter remembering it, contrasted the proportions of this new one with it and were sad. Sept. 1st--Ezra's Return to Jerus- alenL--Ezra 7:6-10; 8: 21-23, 31-32, —Ezra 8:22. Ezra was commissioned by the king of Babylon to go up to the land of Judah to inquire into the affairs of the country and city of Jerusalem. Before starting he received gifts from the king and people but he confessed to the king that it was God from whom he desired and hoped for pro- tection by the way. He was abund- antly rewarded for this thrust. He and all his company had a safe journey through the enemies' country. Sept. 8th—Nehemiah Rebuilding the Wall of Jerusalem.—Nehemiah 4 : 6, 15-21.—Nehe>maiah 4:6. Nehemiah received permission from the king of Babylon to go to Jerusa- lem and rebuild the walls. The neigh- boring men of Samaria watched the work first with scorn and then with hatred and determination to stop it. Nehemiah prayed and planned and his men worked vratia a will until at length the wall was built. Sept. 15th—Teaching the Law of God.—Nehemiah 8:1-3, 5, 6, 8 -12. -- Psalm 119:130. At the time of the "Feast of Trum- pets" Ezra the Scribe stood up before a large assembly of the pews and read and explained the Law of Moses. What they heard touched the hearts of the people that they mourned and wept over their sins. Bern command- ed them to cease their weeping and rejoice for it was a time of "ilffoly Comrocation" St .rural r °orret lls o 11.&;7 Darr,—M0110cfid s 1-1I —151a i1- 0 0 0 Stun nl;a r4 of Quanliity fon. oveT 50 ach 3:1. In these verses the coming of the Messiah is predicted and his work is set forthas that of a purifier of the souls of men. He is also represented as the unchanging one, the just and merciful judge who would have all his subjects render homage, service and obedience and thereby prove Him.

Add one level teaspoonful of salt to each quart partly seal, and process for twenty xnlinutes. Plum and Cucumber Salad. Choose well ripened fruit. Careful- ly skin the plums and where you can remove the stone without destroying the halves of the plum, do so. If the plum be too ripe, peel the flesh from the stone in as large pieces as pos- sible, using a silver knife. Peel a portion of a cucumber --as much as is needed—and soak for at least an hour in salt and water. Wash and dry the cucumber and slice into eatable sized strips. Combine the plums and cu- cumber in a delicately flavored may- onnaise and serve with egg, cheese, meat or poultry dishes. If desired, apple may be used instead of cu- cumber.

He must have been a X man He led me boldly through Theecrowded aisle of that, grand church To find a pleasant pew. I wish you'd heard the singing, wife, It had the old-time ring; The preacher said with trumpet voice "Let all the people sing." Old Coronation was the tune, The music upward rolled, Until I thought the angel choir deruck all their harps of gold. ivIy deafness seemed to melt away, My spirit caught the fire; I joined my feeble trembling voice With that melodious choir, And sang as in my youthful days, Let Angels prostrate fall, Bring forth the royal Diadem And crown him Lord of all. I tell you, wife, it did me good, To sing that hymn once more, I felt like some wrecked mariner That gets a glimpse of shore. I almost want to lay aside This weather beaten form, And anchor in the blessed port Forever from the storm. 'Twas not a flowery sermon, wife, But simple gospel truth: It fitted humble men like me, It suited hopeful youth. To win immortal souls to it The earnest preacher tried, He talked not of sex or creed, But Jesus crucified. SANKEY. COOKERY HINTS Canning Tomatoes. Tomatoes are easy to can because they contain a large percentage of acid. They should be fully ripe, but not too soft. ` Do not use tomatoes which are blemished. Place the tomatoes in boiling water for about one minute or until the skins burst. Peel quickly by begin- ning at the blossom end and peeling toward the stem end. Remove the stem end and green core. If the tomatoes are to be used for stewing purposes or for soup, cut them into pieces and pack as tightly as pos- sible into clean hot jars. When the jar is about half filled, drain the tomato juice from this into another smaller jar. A half-pint or pint jar. is a convenient size for the toma.,o juice, which can be canned and used later for gelatine salads, bouillon or puree. The juice contains a high vitamin content and is recommended by nutrition specialists for infant feeding as well as for an appetizer. As an appetizer it is served cold, sea- soned with salt and pepper. Now fill the remainder of the jar with toma- toes, draining the juice from the jar Wart( HLIW awing {'LiseYdltarlleunft 2 No need to lay. up n horse Bufferin¢ from knmenecr. owellinao or inflammation.

THE RESPONSIBILITY OF EVERY MOTHER The child in the home is a never - failing source of joy, but, at the same time a never -failing responsi- bility to the fond mother. It not in frequently happens that minor ail- ments of the child distress and puzzle her. 'She does not know just what to do, yet feels them not serious enough to warrant calling in the doctor. At just such times as these it is found that Baby's Own Tablets are the mother's greatest help and friend. Most childhood ailments arise in the digestive tract—the bowels be- come clogged and the stomach sour. Baby's Own Tablets are a never - failing relief for this condition. They are a mild but thorough laxative and through their action on the stomach and bowels they banish con- stipation and indigestion; break up colds and simple fever; allay the pain accompanying the cutting of teeth and promote health -giving sleep. Concerning them Mrs. W. Jennings, Mackay, Ont., writes:—"I have used Baby's Own Tablets and think so highly of them that I would not be without them. Please send me your little booklet on the care of children." Baby's Own Tablets are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. are started in the young bird races and flown through to the end, twelve might survive in an average season from a well established loft, and of the missing eight, four or five might reasonably be expected to turn up in the course of the winter months. Now and then a good flier will go through the season without dropping a young bird. But losses of from 25 per cent. to 50 per cent. of a young bird team are borne with equanimity, for the flier calculates that the birds that are lost are the duffers, and than those which remain are the survivors of a test definitely established to sift the good from the bad. The birds which do not come home are the birds which he would have killed later on had there been no racing test to demon- strate their lack of flying qualities, if it happened that there had been any other means of revealing them. PIIGEON RACING MOST HAZARDOUS OF SPORTS Pigeon racing is perhaps the most hazardous of sports. One would say that the odds against what happened in the race of the Toronto Federation of Racing Pigeon Fanciers ieeently would be at least 1,000 to 1. Near- ly 2,000 pigeons were shipped a dist- ance of about 100 miles from Toron- to, and the paeivious Saturday most of these birds had flown 75 miles on a much worse day. The natural ex- pectation of the fanciers was that their birds would be in their lofts about two and a half hours after they were liberated, for as far as human beings could estimate it the weather was suitable for racing. But only 24 birds made their lofts that evening. We think the reason -able odds for such an extraordinary hap- pening would be perhaps 1,000 to 1. But what happened the next day was even more amazing to fliers. Hard- ly any more birds turned up. No wonder the fanciers, accustomed though they are to taking it on the chinas the boxing reporters say, find themselves groggy and dumbfounded. IIt is recognized among pigeon breeders that young pigeons are not as reliable as old birds. They lack both strength and experience. On the other hand, so far as physical con- dition is concerned, young pigeons may be better than their elders, and they are never expected to fly such long distances. We are within the mark in saying that on a day like last 'Saturday] it would be no greater physical feat for the 2,000 birds sent to St. Marys to fly to Toronto than it would be for the average man to walk two miles in an hour. Veteran breeders have no better idea as to what happened to this flock of birds than the •average man who does not know •a fantail from a pouter. They can merely speculate vaguely. The mystery of the Marie Celeste is no profounder a mystery to seamen than the disappearance of these pigeons is to their owners. That is what makes them uneasy. Not knowing vlkat hap- pened they feel themselves helpless to prevent its happening again and again. The birds were fit, the dis- tance was short, the weather was good, but the race was the greatest disaster in the history of Canadian pigeon racing. The incident should impress the public with the fact that it is not by instinct that racing pigeons, or as they are erroneously called carrier pigeons, find their way home. If it were, these pigeons .would be home for it is difficult to imagine any catastrophe arising that would sim- ultaneously deprive nearly 2,000 birds of their instinct'. The best authori- ties agree that pigeons home because they halve been educated to do so. As soon as they are old enough to take to the wing, which is at about a month old, they are permitted a couple of weeks to survey the 'world from the roof of the loft and then for another couple of months are encour- aged to take short flights which fam- iliarize them with the country for sev- eral miles around their loft. After that they are taken short distances away, say two miles, then 'five, then ten, then twenty. After that the young bird races, starting at forty miles, and continuing to '75, 100; 125, .50 and finally 200, 'Which is the Hatt% that yotsiikg birds are flotril i'iet.!'ou rn Proogb ' of the 20 1roo* I *tla t But pigeon disasters are in :a ferent category. It generally haptpenu that the survivors of these metes trophes are not the 'bites that tkd fancier believes to have been his: best. In Such eases the birds that through and win the prizes are birds that have been beaten time and again by other birds that fail. If that oc- curs then the breeder is left for the next year to breed from a bird that won •by a fluke and is deprived of the bird whose merit has been showiri on other odcasions, but which for some unknown reason went down in the smash never to be heard of again. These are some of the things that dis- courage many fanciers but stimula' others. 'But two or three disasters like that of Saturday would pretty nearly put an end to pigeon racing hereabouts since they would deprive 'the fanciers of pigeons to race. r a tee irs and Tag an auerc-weight Modem actience says suh-i ars SaBL- PQ�'=�� efiDST Via? 1I 1ts you cum' ©ED upQtt21 .fess tf©©d and seelly reduce upei td agn61 Cheup0ng cggide cHssap(s as SWAT End Teems 4�C ¶?
