KEEP THEM HAPPY BY
KEEPING THEM WELL
lit is natural for children to be_
happy, active and full of fun. When
they are fretful, fussy and disinclined
to play you may be sure something
is wrong. Almost invariably that
something lies in the digestive tract.
It is to meet the need for an ab-
solutely safe corrective of child-
hood ailments that Baby's Own
Tablets have been designed. They
gently regulate the stomach and
bowels and thus drive out constipa-
tion and indigestion; break up colds
and simple fevers and allay teething
pains. Concerning them Mrs. W. E.
Forsyth, Dover, N. B., writes:"I
would not be without Baby's Own
Tablets as I know of nothing to equal
them for fretful, fussy babies who
are troubled with colds or sour„_stom-
ach."
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.
BOW PEOPLE ANSWER THE
FINAL SUMMONS
Twice, perhaps, in the .course of
the life of the average man he sees
somebody die. His own first hand
experience, therefore, is insufficient to
form any general opinion as to ho*i'
people do come to the end of all
things. This being so he is an easy
victim to propagandists of various
kinds who have their own ends to
serve by describing horrible death -bed
scenes and contrasting them with
calm and peaceful surrenders of the
last minute of life's lease. As chil-
dren, many of us were instructed that
the death beds of sinners were hor-
rifying, while the good people died
"as one who wraps the draperies of
his couhc about him and lies down
to pleasant dreams." This seemed an
eminently fair and satisfactory end-
ing, for it would have been both con-
fusing and alarming if it had turned
out that the departing saints had
writhed and struggled in apprehension
▪ while the. evil -doers had passed away
with an ease that ''betokened confi-
dence as to what was to come, The
truth seems to be that men good and
bad, when the final moment comes,
are alike. One thoughtful Toronto
doctor remiailked to the writer the
other day that people died like brutes,
• and that he had seen no difference
whatever between the two species at
the moment of dissolution "when the
'blind soul is flung upon the air."
In the American Mercury, Hermine
Kane, a Texas nurse of wide experi-
ence, draws upon it to in somewhat
gruesome fashion tell how her pati-
ents met death and what thoughts
came to them fvhen they were about
to leave this world. Almost all- of
them, as long as they were conscious,
were as much concerned with the life
they were leaving as were their rela-
tives. Their thoughts were not on
the mysterious realm upon which they
• were about to enter, but on the prob-
leans and perplexities of those they
were taking leave of. No dying per-
son she know had any of that world-
ly detachment of which we frequently
read. Norse showed wonder that at
the last moment other should be con-
cerned about earthly affairs. Prac-
tically nobody wants to die, and least
of all, in the experience of Miss Kane,
the women who have taken poison
because of some love affair. They
never really believe until the last
moment that the pills they swallowed
in a moment of despair will really cut
them off. They expect to be very
sick, and they. expect their lovers to
be driven wild with grief and horror.
Then they expect to make suitable
terms with those they' are punishing
-rind gradually and gracefully get
+well.
Children who are very sick want
to die, probably 'because their lives

SUPREME
have been too short for them to un-
derstand that suffering is universal
and an integral part of life. Normal
women, however they may suffer,
never expect to die in child birth be-
cause practically all the mothers they
have known survived. The horror of
death applies, so long as conscious-
ness exists, to even those who have
suffered from an incurable disease.
Some, when they are told that they
must die, say that they are willing,
but that they would 'have liked a lit-
tle longer. They do not admit that
the pleasure 'df'•. •living is what they
crave 'but merely the opportunity to
make more suitable arrangements for
those who have a claim upon them.
In all cases of long, serious illness
the thought of death sooner or late.-
arises
aterarises in the patient and the nurse's
opinion is sought. The good nurse
will never say that death is inevitable.
She will tell the patient that he is
very ill but that he will get better.
This not only eases the mind of the
patient and perhaps gives him cour-
age for a fight that may finally cheat
death, but it also makes the nurse's
task easier, The patient will submit
more willingly to ministrations which
he 'believes will make him well 'again
if he feels that they are mere form-
al gestures, availing nothing.
Most dying ;people begin to 'realize
their position for the first time when
the • doctor gently suggests that if
they have relatives at a distance they
should be summoned, or by the omin-
ous appearance of a priest or preach-
er They like their relatives at hand.
Even if long visits weary them, they
like to think that those who are dear
to them are not far away. They cling
to the idea that whatever may become
of them presently they are for the
time 'being important. Miss Kane en-
tertains the rather bolshevik notion
that there is quite a difference be-
tween the demeanor of the relatives
of the rich and those of the poor as
the final hdur approaches. She thinks
that the poor people feel more keenly
the loss, for it is likely to be a heavy
financial one in the case of a bread
earner or his helpmate.
So-called dying message's are not
common. Miss Kane says that they
concern themselves almost exclusively
with some charge upon the living to
take especial' care of some member of
the family. Very frequently a dying
wife will enjoin her husband from
marrying again. Dying people show
no haste in what they have to say
and no particular pride in phrasing it.
Religious and non -religious persons
die alike. But the person whose un-
belief is tainted with some, fear that
he may be wrong is generally an ig-
noble spectacle, and this also applies
to his relatives. Frantic revolt at
the thought of approaching death is
as unusual as, a warm welcome for it.
Of course, this all applies to the days
or hours immediately before death.
When the end actually comes a bless-.
ed unconsciousness "has 'blurred the
final terrors. A coma has set in, and
then comes an exhaustion from which
the 'body is glad to escape even though
it i•s but subconsciously realized. The
breathing is labored. The heart ceases
to throb, but by this time the spirit
has fled. What physiological and
chemical changes then take place are
really an anti -climax.

C.N.R. MAKES PLANS TO FEED
MULTITUDE
Butcher, 'baker and candlestick
maker will have a heavy load to carr
next June in the provisioning of the
10.400 guests who will flock to Temple
Park, the C.N.R. wheeled city at Spa -
dine Avenue and Fleet Street, for the
Shrine Imperial Council convention.
Present indications point to a "full
house" for Temple Park, which means
that some 400 pullmans will come to
rest there and. house a full comple-
ment of visitors for the term of the
council meetinsg.
It has been estimated by the sleep-
ing end dining car department- of the
Canadian National Railways. that it
will require nearly three tons of beef
to feed the newcomers. For those
poultryminded in their eating, some
500 chicken's must be sacrificed. A
half ton of fresh fish will ;carte
serve tc satisfy those' who prefer to
eat on board the parked trains. For
the 'breakfast eggs it will require 110
crates. Nearly 3,000 loaves will be
consumed to say nothing of almost
900 gallons of milk.
The figures arg minimum and has' -
ed on the assumption that less than
one-third of the 10•,000 will dine on
hoard their trains. The fore'planning
in e.dnnection with the food' supply
must begin weeks in advance' and cov-
en Canada from practically one coast
to the other. The Canadian Nation-
al ltailroways will feature distinctive
Canadian foods throughout:`
