CASTORIA WILL DO ITI When your child needs regulat- Ing, remember this: the organs of babies and children are delicate, Little bowels must be gently urg- ed--never forced, That's why Cas- toria is used by so many doctors and mothers. It is specially made for children's ailments; contains no harsh, harmful drugs, no nar- cotics. You can safely give it to young infants for colic pains, Yet it is an equally effective regulator for Older children, The next time your child has a little cold or fe- ver, or a digestive upset, give him the help of Castoria, the chil- dren's own remedy. Genuine Cas- toria always has the name: CASTORIA y YAN Quick Relief for Women Women need not endure periodic pains and headaches. They can spare themselves this suffering by taking ZUTOO TABLETS. Mrs. Allen Wright, of Fulford, who was relieved in 30 minutes of severe pain and headache, wrote saying: "Every woman in the land should know about ZUTOO TABLETS and what they will do."

At An interesting letter, dealing with conditions and people in far-off Alaska, has been received by Mr. and Mrs, J. Davies, 244 Glidden Avenue, Oshawa, from a young wo- man who was formerly a teacher at the Oshawa Missionary College, and who is now teaching school at Point Hope, Alaska. This young woman was formerly Miss Myrtle Brown, but is now Mrs. Everett, her hus- band being a co-worker with her in the Alaskan country. In her letter, Mrs. Everett paints an interesting picture of life in the north. In part, the letter says: "The popular conception of the Arctic, along with Santa Claus, ought to bé exploded, for there is no greater fairy tale anywhere, No --the Eskimo does not live in a guests, along with the members of the provincial executive, of Lt.- Col.

WHAT NEW YORK IS WEARING Lines and Draped Bodice By ANNETTE Note the slim lines about the hips and the waist in this charm- ing model of black crepe satin. The white crepe satin plastron at the front of the bodice is becom- ingly draped. The diagonal lines of the appli- ed bands that trim the skirt and the waist, both at the front and at the back, keep the heavier fig- ure slim and make the youthful figure appear even more youth- ful. It's easily fashioned. You'll en- joy making it. The saving in cost is enormous. Style No. 599 comes in sizes 16, 18, 20 years, 36, 38, 40 and 42 inches bust. Size 36 requires 4 1-8 yards of 89-inch material with 1-2 yard of 35-inch contrasting.

Cf course, he becomes acclimatized and his body does what it can to make an adjustment, but even that idea is not what it is cracked up to be. It is a commonly accepted fact that one always suffers with the cold more the second year in this coun- try than in the first. The blood may thicken, but it seems to lack the vitality of the warm sunshine and vegetable foods, : "We get terrible winds here, worse than many places, because we sit so far out in the ocean where the gale can sweep for hundreds of miles without interference. At such a time one just stays inside. If necessity calls, the men will ven- ture to fight their way against the wind, Dogs will not move. Dog teams are quite gs familiar as bread and butter now. Most of the na- tives keep dogs, and use them sum- mer as well as winter. We were much surprised to see dogs pull ing sleds on bare sand and turf last July when we arrived. It is really thrilling to ride behind a fast dog team. 1 only wish we could afford to keep dogs, but it would merely be a matter of pleasure, and we feel that if we are going to iso- late ourselves for a while we want something to show for our trouble when we go outside. According to all reports, sled dogs eat mostly their imagination and walrus hides, but they are for the most part half- starved. These dogs are more wolf than dog anyway. But no dogs can work without food, and if you could see the tons of salmon drying for their feed, and the tons of seal meat and every other kind of meat fed to them, as we_do, there would be no doubt in your mind as to their ap- petites. "The summers here are not bad. The thermometer stays about fifty although we have been told it will sometimes reach a hundred. Of course the sun does not set for about six weeks. At present, the sunset does not die out of the sky at night. = Before long, it will be light most of the night. If it were not for the long days, we would never thaw out up here," As it is, the ground only thaws out to a depth of six or cight feet by the time of the freeze-up in September, The flowers are beautiful in color, but tiny in size. Most stems are two or three inches long, and real tall flowers are four inches high. The chiet' thing that the warm sea- son accomplishes here is to take the ice out, so that ships can come and bring the next year's supplies, and how we look forward to the ships. How would you like to re- geive all your Christmas presents in uly? "You can have no idea what the coming of mail means in this isolat- ed place. We can scarcely breathe until each piece of mail has been carefully inspected, "The Eskimo people are treasures. Of course, they are primitive, but 1 have never known a more agreeable people. They are honest bright and sunny, and not so dirty either, At first we did not like the smells, but soon we learned that it was the smell of raw skins and then we for- got to notice it. The furs are not tanned. The natives merely scrape and wash them, Then, too, we wear the same thing, though the women are most careful to do a very good job on white folks' furs, "You. would love work up here. Running a government station is no small job. We are teachers. -- oh yes. But that is a small portion of our responsibility. The govern- ment has established herds of rein- deer for these people. At present they. are under the management of the natives, but all business is done under the direst supervision of the government. That is a big: share of Mr, Everett's work. Then our village has a native co-operative trading post, which is also super- vised by Uncle Sam's agent. Then we are also required to operate a dispensary for the benefit of a vil- lage of about 250 population.

Never had he seen a ram with such great massive curved horns as those Bighorn wore Unaware that they are being watched the family of Mountain Sheep took a sun bath and dozed on a fairly 'level spot not far from where Farmer Brown's Boy lay hidden. Now and then Big- horn would lift his head for a careful look in. all directions here. She has examined each na- tive, young and old, given injections, pulled eighty teeth, held lectures and trained seven midwives. « "You will probably be interested to know about the ice packs. In the fall, the ocean freezes up for a mile or two out from land. Then the prevailing north and northwest winds come down from the north and it crowds in te shore. Some- times it will be as much as ten miles out to open water. Next a blow comes up, and the old ice begins to shove and push the young ice, be fore long the latter gives way and is piled up in great ridges. All along the north beach there are great slabs of ice, three to five feet thick, cight or ten feet wide, fifteen or twenty fect long, These are piled one on of another in ridges thirty or forty feet high. One won- ders how the beach could ever be cleared in the short summer, but a few days of south wind and the ice breaks and moves out to sca, Hence the ice-pack. Nobody knows how old it is. But it will always be, be cause cach year there is a generous addition made to it." top r= DODD'S' ALN TA 7, PILLS R [\ J, oy [| a= b) ff \ | often," Burgess The two lambs fell asleep almost at once, for they were very tired. Mrs. Bighorn dozed. They were so near Farmer Brown's Boy that he could study them to his heart's content. In general they looked like sheep, but never had he seen a ram with such great massive curved horns as those Bighorn wore, and never had he seen sheep without woolly coats. These coats were not of wool at all but of hair, it was not long hair such as Billy Surefoot the Moungain Goat wore but more like the hair of Lightfoot the Deer. After a good nap the lambs awoke and began to gambol and play much as he had seen lambs at home do. They would butt each other and push each other about. They would make funny little jumps. One leaped over his father. Once Talons the Eagle sailed for a few minutes high overhead. The lambs saw him and crowded close to their mother. "There is nothing tc fear from him now, my dears," said she "You have grown so fast that you are too big now for him to attack, but when you were little I had to keep you hidden when he was about. Talons is very fond of tender young lamb, It is a great relief not to have to worry for fear he will get one of you. So go back to your play and don't pay any attention to him." The lambs went back to play, but presently one came to her again. "If Talons is no longer to be feared who is there to be afraid of?" he demanded. 'No one up here," she replied. "That no cne but a two-leg- wed creature called Man, and then only if he carries a fire- stick, He doesn't appear Very she added. "Then there isn't any one for us to really fear?" said the lamb. "Only Man up here, my dear," replied his mother, "but down below are several who would like a dinner of tender young lamb." "Who?" demanded the lamb. AZT TY SED YEARLY r J. C.

It is only when we down there where they live at we have to fear any of them." "Then what do we go down there for?" demanded the lamb. "It seems to me foolish to go down tlrere at all." "You have much to learn yet, my dear," replied his mother. "We never would go down from our beloved mountain heights it we didn't have to. You have known only summer, but by and by winter will come and bring with it deep snows that will bury all the food up here, and you know we cannot live without food. So we will have to go down among the trees and sometimes way down to the very®bottom of the valleys to find enough to eat and protection from the storms. 1t is then that we will have to watch out every minute of every day and constantly use eyes and ears and noses to keep from being surprised by these enemies who hunt by night and day, for it is the hungry season for them as well as for us. Your father and I have been down there every winter, but we always have come back up here just as soon as we could. We are mountain people and never happy anywhere else." Just then his sister rushed up and butted the lamb aside and he promptly butted her in re- turn, Then they kicked up their heels in the funniest way, happy in their play. But one at /least had learned lessons that he would never forget and later as they rested side by side he told his sister all that his mother had told him, and they wondered what winter would be like and how it would seem to be always afraid.

RITSON ROAD HOME AND SCHOOL CLUB When the regular meeting of the Ritson Road Home and School (lub was held on Tuesday even- ing, October 13th, over 150 mo- thers and children were present.

GIRL GUIDE NEWS 2nd Oshawa There was a splendid turn-out of the 2nd Company Guides last Tuesday, The Signalling Test was passed by Glenys Black. Next Tuesday, October 20th, a test will be given on Health Rules. e 3rd Oshawa It took 3rd Company a long time to get started after the sum- mer vacation but judging by the success of the last meeting the company fis not going to waste anytime in getting down to seri- ous work. Everybody was "up on their toes" for the meeting Wednesday evening. There was a good drill in marching, and the posture test that is coming off in December was not forgotten once, There were no drooping shoulders and hollow chests, New recruits are liking the work and are hurrying to get their tenderfoot tests completed. The Captain introduced a new scheme which worked very well and. from now on there will be a ten-minute period for asking ques- tions, when the captain and her two lieutenants will take one Guide at a time and answer one question at a time. It saves all the confusion and rush at the close of the meeting. Next week, the Guides are re- minded that their mothers will be present for the latter part of their meeting and it will be a credit to them to look their best. The mo- thers are meeting for an hour at the close of the Guide meeting. They are requested to be at King Street School at 8.15 Wednesday evening. 4th Oshawa The great surprise which is to be a Hallowe'en party on the 28 of October was found out by the girls at the last meeting. The Guides have been practic- ing some of the old dances. Miss Werry taught the Guides a new song, "I Left my Baby Ly- ing Here," and the Guides acted the part of Inaians. Sea Rangers On Wednesday the Sea Rangers had a very busy evening. Miss Robertson opened the meeting, and the patrol leaders reviewed two famous artists with their pa- trols, Then several of the girls signalled sentences with the sema. phore flags. The rest of the crew read the words. This was the first time that they had ever signalled full sentences, and it proved very successful. The whole crew went through the alphabet to the music of the Keel Roll. There were two charts showing the rigging of full-rigged ships. Thé crew are learning the rigging of seven sailing vessels. week they will try that test for a star on the Able Sea Ranger chart, The Skipper played the piano while the girls did the Sailors' hornpipe, The three new Rangers were anxious to learn the dance.
