AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND i.: i Proud of Their Heroic Sons and Brothers. lpf Australia and New Zealand have made a most honorable and sacrificial offering to this war. A correspondent writes :--"I send you these few lines from a far back sheep station^amohg the New Zealand hills. I assure you that the throb of emotion of patriotism patriotism reaches to the uppermost parts of the empire. Every man of eligible age on this station is either on the list of those accepted or has beefi rejected, rejected, like myself. Nevertheless, in New Zealand, as elsewhere, there are 'shirkers.' However, we are more proud than any words can say of our heroic sons and brothers, and some cases fathers (extremely few married men have gone from New Zealand). The New Zealand Minister of Defence, in reply to a deputation which waited on .him to strongly urge increased contributions of men from New Zealand, stated reasons of a confidential nature, explaining why New Zealand could not send another Main Body. These reasons, which the Press was asked not to publish, quite satisfied this influential deputation. deputation. As it is, New Zealand is sending sending over 3,000 men as reinforcements every two months." -- FOR HEADACHES, BILIOUSNESS CONSTIPATION, Separate waists for street suits are as good as ever.

Carbuncle comes from a Latin word that means a little live coal, and anyone who has ever suffered from a carbuncle thinks the thing well named. named. The carbuncle itself is really an inflamed mass formed by a collection of boils. It begins in the tissue under the skin, and not only works its way toward the surface, as an ordinary boil does, but also burrows downward, and destroys the connective tissue. That tendency to burrow, as well as its size, makes a carbuncle a much more serious affection than a boil or an ordinary abscess. Carbuncles generally come on the nape of the neck, or farther down on the . back, but they appear in other places, too. It is easy to understand that any inflammatory process so widespread and so deeply seated as a carbuncle usually, is, must cause marked symptoms of illness. As a matter of fact, it is generally accompanied accompanied by fever, headache, loss of appetite, appetite, and othér indications of impaired impaired health.

In an emergency, when it is imperative imperative that a wound should be seen to and surgeon, nurse, and appliances are absent, a sterile dressing may be applied to the wound before bandaging bandaging by taking the hot ashes from a wood fire, allowing them to cool, and dusting them directly on the wound. A quicker method, and quite effective, effective, is to apply burnt paper to the wound in several layers. This is an excellent emergency dressing, and has the advantage of being quickly obtained anywhere. With the above borne in mind, no one need be quite helpless if occasion arises to treat a wound in peace or war. It should be remembered that surgical cotton-wool and commercial are not the same. The letter has not been freed from impurities, and, moreover, "is non-absorbent. It can be used for padding a splint, but only surgical cotton-wool, free from oil, etc., should be used for wounds. Between Between a dressing and a bandage it is It is the difference between the poetic and the prosaic, between severely conventional living and a large life of spiritual vision and aspect. Who does not know the difference a man who takes up a thing from small motives motives and the man who stands upon the big ground in all his enterprises and ambitions ? It is the difference described by our Lord--some are "from above," and others "from beneath. beneath. No Other Fear Can Breathe. It is the man who stands upon big ground who alone can tackle matters matters of tremendous moment. He alone can endure through the dark and cloudy day. The very largeness of his standing protects him from the fears which are bred of unproportioned unproportioned thoughts. He looks out upon affairs with a true and fine prospective, prospective, and he does not confuse the early battle with the long campaign. He does not fear "when heat cometh." He has the calmness which is the offspring offspring of magnanimity. He has the fear of the Lord, and in that large fear no other fear can breathe. Our God is the God of the large places!

In" applying a bandage to retain dressings or splints never cover the tips of fingers or toes. From the naps and toe and finger ends the state of the circulation can be judged.

A great many people who flatter themselves that they are judges of coffee or other beverages may learn a lesson of caution from the experiments experiments carried on by Sir Hiram Maxim when he was trying to find a palatable palatable preparation of wheat and coffee. coffee. It occurred to me, says Sir Hiram in "My Life," that very few people knew much about coffee. One Sunday I brought out from the Maxim Lamp Works about thirty young men and women. My stenographer was also present; she was one of those young ladies that know all--from whose decisions decisions there is no appeal. I had cleared off a long bench and arranged on it a large number of cups, milk, sugar, cream, much coffee, and plenty of apparatus for making coffee. I got from the Army and Navy Stores various kinds of coffee that were supposed to be the very best in the world, such as Mocha, Java, and so forth, and I also got. from a dealer in coffee some of the sweepings and siftings of his shop-- small, imperfect, and broken kernels. These I freed from dust and *mrt, roasted and ground, and mixed - with three times their weight of chicory. I was ready for the test. My shorthand writer came in, tasted the Mocha, the Java, the Costa Rica, and pronounced them all very bad. She then tried some of my wheat coffee, and some of what was half wheat and half coffee, which, she said, were also bad, but not so bad as the others. But when she reached the mixture of siftings ' and chicory she was delighted. "That is coffee!" she said, with an air of finality. "That's it That's the right stuff!" In all probability the young lady had never tasted a cup of genuine coffee in her life until that Sunday morning.
