A case in point 18 that of Mrs. Melvin Abra, Graveley Street, Vancouver, B.C., who says: --"About two years ago 1 the top of the pack and two of the cards on the bottom and put the pack behind your back. Throw several cards on the table and ask him to tell you whether or not his card ia among them. Do this several times until his answer is "Yes." You will then be able to name the card he selected. The first handful of cards you throw on the table includes one of the two cards you put on the bot- tom of the pack. If his answer is '"No" you will know that the se- lected card is one of the three other cards. The cards may be returned to the pack. The next handful of cards includes one of the other it to be an unusual medicine," is manner in which Mrs, M. E. Chappelle, Blue Mount end Thomas Ave, Wau wotosa, Wis, a practical nurse of fif- teen years' experience, pays tribute to the famous treatment. "Time and again I have urged TAN- LAC'S use and it always brings the most gratifying results. My own mother, now eighty years old, took TANLAC five years ago, and it has been her standby ever since. Nothing helps her as TANLAC does and she is as strong an advocate of the medicine as I am. Only recently, mother be- came generally run-down. Her stom- ach was disordered, her appetite ut- terly failed her, and she came near having a nervous breakdown.

"How much even a little musical ac- complishment means to young men was _ effectively demonstrated during the war," says a writer in Canadian Home Journal. "The boys in a regi ment who were definitely sure of popu- larity were those who could play some instrument or other, or sing a song. It was found that a great many had the gift of playing the plano by ear; but the lad who could really play un- familiar compositions and could vary the usual fare by something 'high- class' once in a while, was honored. "Nor did the soldiers always insist on something lively. I have heard of one young Canadian officer, awarded the V.C. posthumously for suberb bravery during the great advance of the summer of 1918, who had a most remarkable gift for playing on that haunting instrument, the ukulele. He had (it was afterwards known), a real conviction that he was never to see Canada again, and the soft, melan- choly strains he used to evoke. from his instrument were an expression of his premonition. He undoubtedly gave solace to himself and much plea- sure to his comrades by his music, sad though it was. "In the trenches there was no sooft- ing at music as a girl's accomplish. ment; it was regarded as a precious asset; and so the growing boys whose ideas of the war are vague must be taught to regard it."
