in short you are forever floored as i am the saving of a part of ones in come was always a good policy prudent men and women have always maintained a margin of saving but today we must go farther in our efforts to save than ever before today it is a matter of the gravest importance that each canadian seek ways and means to economize by cutting down ex penditures for unnecessary things saving the money he spends on things he could do without so that when the nation needs to borrow money he will be in a posi tion to do his full duty there is warahortening work wait ing for every dollar that can be saved tf charles dickens were writing a to canadians today he would probably give us advice to this effect my other piece cf advice canadians you know no matter what pcentoie cf your annual income you have pre viously saved your efforts today should be io save more the advantage of so doing is threefold by the practice of economy you conserve the material and labor which must be devoted to the grim lash before us you cultivate the priceless hdbit of thrift you gather more and more money id lend to tho nation for the prosecution of the war jo a guich and certain victory cof4uev iltftrtotd

north of the equator and south of the north pole be radiated dignity- he oosed it he lifted his hat with the same preclae lift every time be met a woman of his acquaintance and bowed his head at just the right angle with never a variation and during the four years la which mable had been bis secretary k had nevtr treated her other than as if she were a duchess at a diplomats ball with all the cour

pressing a number of ants from another bill and put them back among their own friends who prompt ly fell upon them tod ejected them he took ants bo times larger than the inhabitant of a certain anthill wash ed them and treated them in a liquid pressed from ants of that hill and then placed them in it the lilliputian insects did not recognize tbe giants as invaders mr bge concludes there fore that the supposed remarkably sharp recognitions powers of the in- socts are simply a matter of scent and inherited reflexes ants removed from familiar paths blunder blindly along wlcti no sense of
