A vegetarian whose family was out of town went to breakfast at a I restaurant and took a seat next to a i stranger. The vegetarian took occa- sion to advertise his creed by telling j the stranger that the human diet I should be strictly vegetarian. "But," j replied the stranger. "I seldom eat meat." "You just now ordered eggs," said the vegetarian. "An egg is prac- tically meat, because it eventually becomes a bird." "The kind of eggs i I eat never become birds," answered the stranger. "Impossible!" cried the vegetarian. "What kind ot eggs do you eat?" "Principally boiled eggs," said the stranger.

The state of affalr.s in Russia makes the discovery of plalinum in the Serrania de fJonda, in tho south of .Spain, announcod in a special iiieinoir issnod by the Cieologieal In-. Kfitnle of Spain, specially interesting. The rocks in tliis lesion were studied borauso of their Kiniilarily to tho plaliniiin-bearing roik.s in tho Ural Mountains. The Ural deposits yield- ed In pre-war days about SOO.OOO ounces (troy) per aiiniiin â€" about 95 per cent, of the world's yearly out- put. In 1916 this ligiire had fallen to Hti.OOO minccH. I'latiiuini bus also been found in soiiio (luartz deposits In the Ober Uo.slieck. district of tho Taunus Mountains, (ierniany, and these deposits are being worked. The chief source of Hip Hnlento supplies Is now presumably (ho mines in Co- lumbia, whero tho niotal was first dl.scovered In t7:!ri. Their output is comparatively siiiull; in 1910 it was 25,000 ounces, rathii more than dou- ble what it was before the war. Other possible sources of supply are the river gravol.s in Southeast Bor- neo, where further prospecting is re- qulrad, and varioii?; districts In North America, more especially Sudbury, Ontario, and the si ream placers in Alaska, which are being investigated by the ITnlled Stales Geological Sur- •vey. Considorablo activity Is also re- i ported in the Similkameen and Tula- meen districts In British Columbia, j which arc tho chief localilles of platinum production in Canada. New South Wales has produced some 8,000 ounces In the course of the , last five years.â€" Science Progress. i Do your share in the ''Brighten Up â€" Paint Up" Campaign. We want to have the cleanest, neatest and best looking town in the Dominion, and so we hope that every citizen will do his share to fix things up around his own place. Clean up back yards and front yards ; remove all old rubbish ; keep the grass tidy and well cut ; paint your house if it needs it ; paint the fences and outbuild- ings. Take a keen personal pride in your own property and by so doing help your town to look its best. The regular use of paint is an economy. Properly painted buildings keep in good condition and save expensive repairs as the paint protects them from the wear and injury of the weather. Well painted buildings are a source of pride to the owner and add greatly to the selling value of the property. We are headquarters for all " Clean Up â€" Paint up " materials as well as paint. Drop in and see us and we will take care of your requirements. Our goods are right in quality and right in price. F. W. DUNCAN, Agent, Flesherton Ontario
