SHUNTING CARS CRUSH CHILD Locomotive Engineer Finds Lifeless Body of Son Behind Engine Brantford, July 9.--Hearing the frantic cries of his comrades which announced the tragedy, Engineer Herbert street, 119 Chestnut street dismounted from his cab last night to find the crushed and lifeless body of his seven-year-old son lying between the cars which he had been shunting. Smith, who is employed by the L.E, and N, railway was in charge of operations yesterday at Brant- ford freight sheds. Anxious to see his daddy, little Donald Smith left his home and wandered down the street to the tracks. Here a pro- tecting wire fence barred the way, but it was easy for a boy to crawl through and Donald was soon near to the puffing locomotive which his father controlled. Nobody saw just how the accl- dent happened. The other train- men were busy coupling and un- coupling the cars when suddenly a boy's short scream told of the tragedy. The child was killed instantly, crushed to death between the An inquest will open today.

In fact, some blondes can't ac- quire a coat of tan at all--a sad blow for many, since a tanned complexion has become so fashionable that drug- stores now sell it in bottles. According to a special "holiday bul- letin" issued by the Canadian Social Hygiene Council, in co-operation with the Department of Public Health of Toronto, there are a number of "don'ts" and "do's" which the holi- daying city or town-dweller should observe, if his constitution is to stand the strain of the summer rest-period. Don't scratch mosquito bites, don't pick poison ivy, watch your milk and water supplies and get plenty of sun, but not too much at once, are some of the admonitions. And here is an emergency medical kit that everyone is advised to pack in the suit-case: 3 or 4 bandages, 2 or 3 inches wide; 1-4 pound of sterilized gauze; 1 ounce of absorbent cotton; 1 or 2 ounces of tincture of iodine; 1 small roll of ad- hesive plaster about 1 inch wide; 1 ounce of boracic acid; 1 or 2 ounces of bicarbonate of soda; a hot water bottle; 2 ounces-of aromatic spirits of ammonia. "The last item is important in the event of a collapse," the bulletin ad- vises. "From one-half to a teaspoon- ful of aromatic spirits of ammonia in a wine-glass of water acts more promptly than whiskey or brandy. It You can save butter in cooking by using St. Charles Milk.

Splinters should be removed with a needle sterilized by being held for a few minutes in boiling water, and the injured place treated with iodine. Poison ivy irritation should be treat- ed with the juice of the jewel weed, a plant growing two to four feet high, in marshy places, and possessing a juicy, semi-translucient stem, and with orange-colored flowers with brown spots. Either strong laundry soap, or fresh lime-water 1s a good substitute. Avoid being overly zealous in your efforts to get sunburned. Half an hour at a time is quite as long us any part of the body, not accustomed to exposure, should be subjected to the strong rays of the sun, for the first few days; then it will be quite safe to increase the time to an hour, and after a fairly good coat of tan has been developed you are well pro- tected against the dangers of sunburn. If you do not take these precautions your holiday may be spoiled--pain- fully. Furthermore, recent revelations as regards the therapeutic value of the chemical rays of the sun have been such as to make one feel that it should be difficult to over-estimate their importance." Therefore, we rec- ommend for small children the sun suits which can be obtained in any of .our stores. - These suits only pro- tect the hips and upper parts of the thighs and leave the balance of the body exposed to the sun's rays. It is well to bear in mind that in order to get the therapeutic benefits it is not absolutely necessary that you be exposed to the direct rays of the sun--there is the sky shine, or re- flected rays from the sky and clouds. On a clear day you may lie or sit on the shady side of the house, with the blue dome above you, and get from one-third to one-half of the benefits of the rays of the sun that you would get by exposing yourself directly to them, For mosquitoes, three things should be remembered--netting, liquid am- monia, and coal oil, : The netting shuts them out, the li- quid ammonia, applied promptly to a bite, frequently neutralizes the poison and prevents subsequent itching, and the coal oil, put in very small quanti- ties on top of water in rain-barrels, little ponds, etc., prevent the mosquito larvae from developing into mosqui- toes. Furthermore, certain aromatic preparations such as spirits of cam- phor, menthol and oil of citronella, may be applied to exposed parts of the body to keep these pests away. Insist that your food be protected from the filthy, disease-spreading house-fly. And do not be on the go all the time during your holiday. Take some reading matter with you and spend part of the day, particularly in the middle of the day, in the shade of the trees, in your hammock, or in an easy chair, or lying on a rug on the ground. Do not dance every night during your holiday and expect to come home rested and refreshed for the balance of the year, Exhibition chorus of 2,000 voices accompanied by the famed Goldman Concert Band, of New York, will be heard in four con- certs at the Canadian National Ex- hibition this year.

Some of the new painted wall fin- ishes offer a helpful solution. They are soft in tone, and at the same time provide color that is cheerful. With the endless variety possible, through varying tints and shades and different techniques for finishing, the need for individuality is met. Spray misting, spatter finishes, lace stencils, sponge stippled, mottled, Tiffany blended, and scumbled patterns--these give an idea of the variety offered by the new: technique for painted walls, Choice of color is as important as the finish itself.

Any of these finishes may be done in three shades or colors as well as in two. In fact, it is a common prac- tice to renovate mottled walls by ap- plying a third shade.
