All the Others. One of the results of travel is to give the traveler to feel how many sorts of people there are in the world that is our common. heritage and how many different ways there are of do- ing things. It should be as hard for conceit to survive a journey as for human vanity to persist after one has been looking at the stars on a cloud- less winter night. As you come down the street to your train for anywhere, as you look from the window at scurrying holiday shop- pers early on the scene, as you see men hastening from factory or foun- dry or children rushing pell-mell from school, the sense of the sheer number of people there are in the world and claiming a living from it becomes at | times almost oppressive.

This ~ The Making of Criminals. BY DR. J. G. SHEARER. "The public, not only of Canada, but of the Continent, has been regaled ad nauseum with the career, the capture under gun-fire, the speedy trial, the ro 8 life sentence plus thirty lashes, the eruption begins with small reddish spots ap- Jearing in groups that have a ten- ency to form irregular crescents. Since-measles is so highly commun- icable and since a high death-rate at- tends complications therefrom, it is important that one should prevent or postpone this disease us long as pos- sible, for the highest mortality occurs in children under two years of age. Quarantine pay not completely stamp out measles but if the qquaran- tine is effective and if parents will guard their children against infection the number of cases would be ver considerably reduced, and there woul be many less sufferers from the ser- lious after-effects of the disease. ing, with the glitering prizes afar and difficult to win, It should not make us desperate to realize the multitude with whom we must compete. If we should fall, we ghould find all the others strangely kind and solicitous to help us re- establish our footing in the crowd. Hu- man sympathy is born of the knowl- edge that we are all fallible and mor- tal and that none can live unto him- self alone. And the crowd is not in- viting our proud defiance; it forever seeks a leader, and it, too, needs a friend. GUARD THE BABY AGAINST COLDS i. To guard the baby against colds nothing can equal Baby's Own Tab: lets. The Tablets are a mild laxative that will keep the little one's stomach and bowels working regularly, It is a recognized fact that where the stom. ach and bowels are in good order that colds will not exist; that the health of the little one will be good and that he will thrive and be happy. The new gales tax will not increase the price of Baby's Own Tablets, as the company pays the tax.

He evidently had considerable ability with cleverness and cunning \|thit is rare. He has robbed numbers of people, held Up bank and other in- stitutions, fooled detectives, broken out of the supposedly most secure prisons 'and not unlikely has taken lives though murder has not been brought home to him. It is not his personal caretr with its sad ending that we are concerned with. * It 1s not 'even the causes in gen- 'eral or particular of crimes like his that are holding the thought of the weiter. It is the effect upon young people, particularly well-grown boys, of reading of the exceptionally clever, daring and successful exploits of any notorious criminal. Is it not certain that their hearts will be fired with admiration for these heroic deeds in spite of or perhaps because of their lawlessness? How splendid to be able to fool the police, even the clever de- tectives, the prison guards and who not!

The greatest need of public sthool music in Canada is a closer contact with real music. To-day, there is too much talking about music and not enough music first hand. The teacher who spends four-fifths of the music period teaching scales building, names of keys, and other technical problems, instead of teaching children to sing beautiful songs that will result in cre- ating a lasting eagerness for more singing, has lost sight of her objective. If a half hour a day were given to music, more time might be allowed for the teacher of music theory; but there must be more musie in the few minutes allotted to us. Children are learning to hear through lessons with the phonograph; but too often the phonograph lesson ends all, when it should serve just as a stepping-stone leading to the real concert. An artist's course should be a part of the music plan for every!
