Fourth Leason The mission of food in the body is to repair, build new tissue and to furnish heat and energy to the body for the daily labor. The mysterious processes of diges- tion separate the food, so that we find portions of it are incombustible, that do not furnish material for repairing, building new tissues, heat or energy to the body. Upon close study we find that digestion starts in the mouth and stomach and finishes in the intestines. The stomach and intestines are so constructed that they depend upon their contraction and expansion, as it -Incombustibles. were, for the performance of their duties, which consist of absorbing the nutriment of the food, discarding all that has yielded its goodness and eliminating all waste products from the body. In order that these organs be kept ip their usual working order, :'. is neces- sary that foods containing consider- able bulk be eaten daily. Vegetables, salads, whole grains contain valuable incombustibles in the form of cellulose, which are necessary for active elimination of waste and undigested foods from the body No one looked more eagerly for those lighted windows than the inmates of the Rectory â€" since to no one did an! inhabited BaKadrochit mean so many are generally too perfectly assimilat- 1 P^ssihilities. ed to shock even the finest sensibilities, I "They are expected on Wednesday, and the light of -Duty" once turned and they consi.st of mother and daugh-j upon any particular course of action t^i.

Thus, for Instance, the Pennsylvania Railroad merely on Its lines east of Pittsburg has eliminated no less than 102 trains, or more than double the number taken off the whole of the Canadian railways. This will cut down the passenger movement by an amount equivalent to 2,268.000 train miles per annum or over 6,500 train miles every week day. A number of parlor cars, restaurant cars and ob- servation cars are being discontinued. The Boston and Maine has taken off no less than 255 trains, or more than five times the number taken off In Canada, saving approximately 41,000 train miles per week. Strenuous ef- forts are also being made to Increase the carload and to Impress on mer- chants the importance of rapid un- loading 80 that the freight equipment shall be kept busy to Its utmost ca- pacity, and terminals should be kept clear. The American railroads realize that speed In freight movement Is one of the greatest aids they can give to help win the war and according to all reports are achieving remarkable re- sults. It is up to Canadians to see that Canada Is not left behind in this p.Uriotic race.

The war is enlarging our dictionary, and we are growing accustomed to many terms which, in pre-war days, I rarely or never fell upon our ears. ! Blighty, flag-day, strafe, "little bit," ' summer-time, are examples. The lat- ter word, in all its war-paint, actually appears in the latest volume of the new English Dictionary. But some words are still required, so get busy and see whether you can find them! To start with, can you think of a good term for allotment-holder? "Al- lotter" and "alloteer" have been sug- gested by a contemporary, but they lack snap. Got anything better? A decent name for our airmen is also on the waiting-list â€" something to go with Tommy and Jack. No money will be paid to the inventor; but think of the glory of having produced a term that will be handed down to your great-grandchildren ! Then, what shall we call the mftn who has been re-rejected? And the woman voter? And can you find something snappy for a tobacco-hoard- er, a man over sixty-one, and a meal that is only half a meal? rants. Prepare the currant as direct- ed for jelly.

THE HOUSE OF WINDSOR King George Has Changed the Appel- lation of British Royal Family. The Royal family ?t Britain it^ of the Mouse of Saxe Coburg Ctolha. The Hanoverian line ended with the mar- riage of Queen Victoria and Albert, rrlnce of Saxe-('oburH.Gotha. Oeorgc V. lives up to the conception of a "Patriot King." Mo has now struck out llio tierniaii names used I in the description of the British Royal family. Seyeral weeks ago Oertiiaii titles hold by connoctlinis of the lloyul family, such as the Tecks and llatten- burgs, were abolished, and new Brit- ish appellations found for them. Saxe-CoburK-dotha Is now droppoil as the iiaiiio of llio reigning dynasty. Ilencoforward It Is to be the House of Windsor. 'I'liut Is a line old historic Kiiglish name, after the castlo which has for so many centuries been one of the chief abodes of Uoyalty. 'I'ho change will bo welcomed by tho Hrlt- IhIi people, at home and In the outor parts of the Knipire. Windsor Is a parllaiiiontary nnd inuiilcl|ial borough and market toxvn In Berkshire, on the TliamcK. -2 miles west of London. The village of Old Windsor Is about two iiillca to the east, whoro was sltuatcul tho royal residence, granted with the town by Edward tho (Vmfessor to the monks of Westminster. William the Contiuoror regaliuid possession of It and occasloii- ally resided there. Windsor Castlo, the chief royal palace of Knglnnd, stands on an eminence near tho 'riiatnes, and the buildings and Im- iiiertlale gardens cover twolve acres, while there is a park of 1,800 acres. Henry I. niado oxIoiibIvo additions to tho fortress constructed by William the Conqueror iitiil thi^ fortress became a palace. Kdward 111. was born tlioro and after his accossloti ho rebuilt and enlarged the palace. James II. ^nd William of Orange added fine collec- tions of paintings. During tho rolgns (if llnnrgo HI, and (leorgo IV., inoro than $5,000,000 of public money was spent on tho castle. As the principal Royal houso In the Entente, tho Windsors' course will no doubt have direct Influence upon other monarchs. such as King Albert of Ilplfiliim, who Is of the House of Saxe- Coburgdotha. Thus another step la lakt'U In the Isolating and discrediting of Teuton royalty. HELP WIN THE WAR It is the duty of every subject of the Allies to help win the WAR, and they can best do it by preventing WASTE and storing up for the COMING WINTER all food products, especially those perishable foods such as fruits and vegetables. This can be accomplished easily by using one of the NATIONAL CANNING OUTFITS. With the aid of one of these all kinds of fruits, com, peas, tomatoes and beans can be cooked, which will keep indefinitel/ when properly prepared. Our No. 1 JUNIOR NATIONAL for family use has a capacity of from 200 to 400 Citns daily or glass jars of proportionate amount. These outfits can be put right on a cook stove. Price $25.00, f.o.b.

Trlucoss Mary likes an open air life, and has been often seen riding with the King during his Majesty's early morning rides, both in I.ond<in and at Windsor. She made her debut In the hunting field when she was only eleven, attending a meet of the West Norfolk Foxhounds on her chestnut cob. As the only daughter In a family with five boys, the Princess has shared her brothers' games and re- creations. She enjoys shopping, and takes great trouble to obtain the par- ticular presents which she sets her heart on. For Instance, she once asked In a London shop for a small hard broom. Tboy bad not one. "I want a nice little hard broom for my bnither to s*eep garden p4iths with," said the Princess.
