We had intended discontinuing discontinuing these talks during the micLsum- mer months as we can not find the time ! for reading that we find to be necessary to write bright, interesting and instructive paragraphs and to present thoughts and opinions on up- to-date topics as we desire to do in' these talks. - But in this very intensely hot month as we have taken a half day. or an evening for social gatherings gatherings and outings so many people, old and young, have expressed to us their personal appreciation of our work and the interest with which they watch for the arrival of the paper every week that we are going to try to keep on "talking" even though what we write may be. somewhat commonplace. commonplace. * * * * Next pride of home and family comps pride of town or city.

Prescription'for Eczema. All skin diseases yield instantly to its soothing oils. Its ingredients, oil of win- tergreen, thymol and glycerine, have been used by doctors for years in the cure of the skin.

This; is a sort of municipal co-operation-that tells for the general up-keep of a place. It does not necessarily necessarily entail great expense or continued continued or hard work, but some expense expense and work at the proper or seasonable seasonable time. Of course, the springtime springtime is the first season when united action is necessary. In one town we know of a proclamation under the imprimatur imprimatur of the mayor called upon every citizen to participate. The personal personal pride and civic pride of all was appealed to. They were asked to clean the yards, paint the buildings, lay down sod for grass and plant flowers. It was a most worthy effort upon which to unite and inevitably will mean a cleaner, healthier, happier and more beautiful town. It wrought a remarkable transformation that greatly greatly heartened all who joined in the movement. * * * * The emulative spirit is kindled by' such action and the greatest pleasure is experienced in working under such competitive inspiration. If every part of a city, town or village, yea, and rural community, too, would unite in such a clean-up scheme a truly wonderful transformation in the ap-: pearance of the place would be the result. result. Cleanliness is next to godliness. This applies to communities as well as individuals. Civic self-respect is a great thing and should be encouraged. Some properties in towns we have lately seen are a positive disgrace to their owners, their condition indicating indicating a lamentable lack of taste, as well as lack of interest.

Countries. We take issue with his statement. statement. We have known so many old people in late years who have kept young and remained active up to seventy, seventy, eighty and even over ninety years and performed their religious and social duties almost up to the end of life that we have not and do not now see that people around us have degenerated. Indeed, death records in this community prove that longevity is increasing and so is ' the average age of those who die. Nor are people becoming less active in old age. In an address on the education of women given before the Women's Canadian Club the other day, the lecturer mentioned mentioned that in one of- the classes formed formed under the auspices of the Educational Educational Association was a woman of seventy. There were several women students over sixty, and a still larger number over fifty. One significant feature of these classes of working people, indeed the most significant feature, is that the men and women-- for the classes are composed of both --study for the love of learning, and not for any tangible reward in the way of diplomas or certificates. children no longer needed her she felt that Jfier world had come to An end. Whether - looked. about. her.-.; and found: sojaae work to her hand, or not, the narrative did not say. But, fortunately, fortunately, no woman ' nowadays need feel .herself stranded in a shoal of. uselessness. uselessness. If she is in a position to give social service, there are crying needs on every hand. If she wants to know more about art or litejrature or music, there are clubs which she can join at any age. There are so many ways in which. a woman can engage of a helpful character that no one need commit suicide or : die of ennui in this busy age. * * * * A Montreal friendT recently gave us this information which is pertinent: A member much Valued-in more than one of the city clubs is a woman over eighty. There is as .much différence in the mental constitution of peçiplè as in their physical constitution. Some relinquish. their hold on the . interests of life--perhaps they never had,a very strong hold--and drift into old age long before their three score years fcnd ten. Some few reach four-score years without finding them over long. They are always the people who are busy, --interested in life and living. The man or woman who can bring . a new. interest intoTife, like the working-woman working-woman student of seventy, may be old in .^years, but is not aged. And let no. one who has been prevented from circum stances from reaching out for that self-development she desired, until she is fifty or sixty or severity, think that it is too late to begin then. * * * * During the past week we have been in the company of one of Toronto's octogenarians--a very active and energetic energetic financial gentleman who does not spend an idle hour. Few men in our capital, city are occupying as many responsible offices in financial, educational, educational, professional, religious and civic enterprises, and yet he is alert, clear-minded aand keèn in a business sense as many a man at forty years of age. To us he is a wonder in business business activity. We asked, him how he accounted for his vigor of mind and body and ability to perform such exacting exacting duties day after day? His answer answer was, in effect: I am as regular in my living as I can be with so many calls on my time. I retire early and rise early. I live on simple diet. I make my midday meal my chief meal. My tea is often bread and milk. I drink tea in moderation, but it is not made by the common method. It should only be steeped a few minutes and then poured into a second teapot before the tanin comes out of it. You get all the pure, harmless, delicious beverage in this way. Since I have grown to advanced years I eat very little meat, cereals, vegetables, milk, eggs, fruit and stale bread being my chief diet. In brief he is living the simple life. As we .baç[e him good-bye at the depot he ran .dowa the platform platform to the parlor cOaeK as light of foot as a cricket player dr a base ballist. We remarked mentally, Col. Hoskin, you're a marvel at your age. * * * * loving, and loved sharer of the duties, the home responsibilities and joys and heart of mother -through early girlhood girlhood activities. Note the basis of this statement. It is ngt enough that the girl shares the herirt--she must know tl^at she shares it. This fact, ensures the' greatest satisffletiori" and positive joy. - Do not, mistake our contention, parents. parents. Playtime is good--is necessary. Everything that has life, young and old, needs it. Childhood and youth, especially, require the close, free intimacy intimacy of the great outrof-doors, and Nature in all its varied and transcendant transcendant attractions to aid. in. their proper development. Children of all years should have the activity of open-air rife---the running, the romping, the playing and plenty of it, too. But they all need as well the discipline, and steadying influence of feeling that they haye a real and personal share in making home a place of comfort, joy, beauty and welcome to friends, receiving receiving and being expected to give as a matter of course, help, confidence, and outspoken conscious love. While this should be. the conditions all the year round and all through the years of childhood and youth, vocation time affords affords splendid opportunities for putting putting this wholesome method with children children into practice. But, devoted dor- e fits, with it all, do not forget to let yoiir children use and enjoy much of thir 'own individuality in work as in recreation, understanding that back of their o^yn will and initiative is yorir broader'; knowledge ever ready for advice, advice, andVhelp in every difficulty or emergency, but not for repression except except where really necessary which will not be very often when the conditions indicated have existed between you and your children. How we do wish that certain young girls we see on the streets daily could see their duty to their mothers as others see it. They would be saved from many a heart- pang in later life when mother has passed away and they recall in how many ways they might have helped her. ers, J *Twixt you and me, children are too often allowed to run wild a large part of their holidays. Mothers and fathers, fathers, too, are far too indifferent about vocation time" engagements. They are apt to think because they are young and life is a golden ball before them, children should not be tied down by any sort of responsibility or line--thinking youth to be Every year we say to our read- young and middle-aged who are favorably situated : "Learn to swim." One only needs to read the daily papers papers to know why we repeat this advice advice so often. Within a week we have read of several drownings, simply because because the young folk, mostly girls, did not know how to swim. Every city and town should have swimming schools. It is remarkable how few lessons it.takes to give the necessary strokes and movements. It is quite true that good swimmers are drowned now and then, but most of the victims lose their lives because they are not abl to swim. As betweén the swimmer swimmer and the non-swimmer the chances for escape in an emergency are as ten to one. The point of the important lesson is driven home with emphasis every summer, and still it apparently needs urging as much as it did twenty years ago. Most people seem to regard regard swimming not as an important accomplishment, but merely as an optional optional recreation, like golf, tennis or china painting; and yet any of us may be confronted at any time with a crisis crisis that makes swimming an art of more importance for the moment than that of walking. The folly of the common neglect is heightened by the fact that it is an art as easily ac- discip- quired as the ability to walk ; and once mere ! acquired it is never lost.

Cawker S Son f • Phone 64. Bowmanville. Only a few days since a lady well advanced in life but full of ambition, told us that the chief desire of her life just now is to enter upon a university course. We referred to the case of a woman of similar age who took up the study of medicine in middle life, studied studied faithfully, graduated with high high standing and is now a successful practitioner in a large city and fully enjoying her work. In considering the life of a 40-year old student it does riot need a very quick imagination to conceive conceive of the enjoyment such a course of study would be in a life which for so many years had been hemmed in mentally through narrowing conditions, conditions, and the enrichment that would be afforded in a life barren of impersonal impersonal interests by the opening out of a wider world, a larger arèna in which great dëeds had been done and left their age-long record. The cheerful enterprise of women of forty years and upwards undertaking to improve themselves by study is significant of the universal; desire for self-expression, self-expression, an element of character that we are beginning to comprehend better than formerly. When the opportunity opportunity for this self-development, self-expression, self-expression, is denied in youth we no longer, see anything incongruous, but rather much that is admirable, in its fulfilment in later life. Indeed; the necessity for haying some interest to enrich life is_ surely greater iri the evening of, one's days than in the npon-day. We will encourage female education in every girl or woman even after the honored gray hairs are in evidence. » * * * ' Without wishing to devote undue length to this subject we may refer to an item in the papers some time ago which told of a woman of seventy who had committed suicide because she no logger found life worth living. ' In an article in a magazine a woman told of how èhe. deyqted her life to her /and fiejjjgfiter until their marriage her alope, Twhên she felt herself play time. Oftener; possibly, the busy mother or pleasure-loving mother, feels less care on herself to let her children run wild. We have never seen a parent's duty in this careless or careful sense. From the entry of a child into the home, its life and body should be held sacred--something not merely to be turned loose for pleasure pleasure and growth like a Calf or colt, but it should be trained along the lines that will mean fullest pleasure and strongest growth. Believe us, young mother, there is no joy in life so great as that which comes from service lovingly lovingly performed. ™ * * * * In a block near our office lives a boy of six summers. His parents are working people and he is forced to live in town and associates little with other children. He wants to be in our office continually during working hours and wants to be helping us in every possible way. This is the na- tural bent of childhood. Be assured : that no fleeting pleasure'to play can ! compensate the.norinaT child for the i loss of the warm, "swéët j glow that | fills the little" heart! from being allow- | ed to help at some kind of work and 1 having that help lovingly acknowledged acknowledged and appreciated by mother or father father or both. Is it too strong to say that an appalling percentage of girls and women Who are to-day facing the result of bitter mistakes that have made their lives desert wastes, turning turning them into nervous wrecks or disappointed, disappointed, hard-hearted yr.omen, would in all probability have girls, learn to swim. It is one of the most important items in the equipment equipment of personal preparedness for summer. * * * * A SOLDIER'S BURIAL. Close his eyes; his work is, done!
