-V f â€" KEEP CHILDREN WELL DURING HOT WEATHER Every mother knows how fatal the hot summer months are to small chil- dren. Cholera infantum, diarrhoea, dysentry and stomach troubles are rife at this time and often a precious little life is lost after only a few hours illness. The mother who keeps Baby's Own Tablets in the house feels safe. The occasional use of the Tab- lets prevents stomach and bowel trou- bles, or if troubles come suddenly â€" as it generally does â€" the Tablets will bring the baby safely through.

Hopkins, Secretary of the British conference of Chemists and Engineers, advances the following strong views: When a shell, whether high explo- sive or shrapnel, is manufactured, ! two separate and entirely different :harges are used. One is the charge ' accessary to send the shell from the pun and launch it over the trenches, and the other is to burst it and scat- ter the shot and shell over our men after it has reached the spot chosen. Now take away or capture the propel- ling charge and the gunner will have to throw his shell or use hand-gren- ades, which are impracticable for long distances. This country has failed in its duty by allowing the raw material to go freely to the enemy for the manufac- ture of further supplies. This material is cotton, one of the few materials which the Germans cannot do without. Not a shell is | fired that is not propelled by cotton, ' and not a machine-gun or rifle bullet which has killed and wounded our brave men that has not been sent on i . . . _â-  „. . ,. , ..^ •«.

To facilitate the work the Government advanced the sums necessary for the seed and agricultural implements on anticipated indemnities. The creaking, lumbering, two- wheeled carts loaded with carrots, turnips, cabbages, onions and other vegetables, driven by men in capes re- sembling the Alpine Chasseur's "beret," that were to be encountered in the streets of Paris before the war are now driven by women. It is due almost entirely to them that Paris is not deprived of the famous cauli- flower from Chambourcy, the cele- brated white turnips of Croissy-sur- Seine, the carrots of Montesson and the delicious green peas of Ciamart, as well as the luxurious aspacagrus of Argenteuil. When Waterloo and Wellington are one of the chief topics of conversa- tion it is interesting to read the fol- lowing letter by Wellington the da^ after the battle of Waterloo: â€" ; "Poor Canning had my small des- patch-box in our battle yesterday, and when he was killed it was lost.

It is one of the oldest metals in hu- man use â€" there are gold beads dating back to the stone age. It is an ob- ject of almost universal desire. It is proof against almost all the in- fluences which destroy other m°tals, and it has been mined in enormous quantities. Yet to-day more than two-thirds of the gold in use has been dug since 1849. What becomes of the rest? Where is the gold that set Jason wandering . into the BlaclL Sea, that filled the treasures of Croesus, that paid the ; terrible tribute which Persian kings What HAVE YOU A BAD SORE ? the other boy is bigger of! hours necessitates a consumption 600 tons of cotton. If one-tenth of the 300,000 shots is fired by, say 6-in. guns the expenditure of cotton is 900 tons every twenty-four hours. Add to this 100 tons a day for the enormous expenditure of ammunition for machine guns and for the millions of rifles in use, we get a total of 1,000 tons of cotton consumed a day. Yet, although these facts must have been known a few weeks after the outbreak of war, our enemies have been allowed to import freely. * A Substitute for Cotton Wool.
