Prince Albert is such that it just makes a man sorry he didn't get wind of this pipe smoke long, long ago. He counts it lost time, quick as the goodness of Prince Albert gets firm set in his life ! And P. A. can't bite or parch ! That's cut out by the patented process by which it is made! Prince Albert has always been sold without coupons or premiums.

Quick as you can, understand yourself how much you'll like "Prematures" and "Blinds" Are Now a Negligible Quantity. Mr. Lloyd George told the British House of Commons recently that at the battle of Loos, owing to the large number of "prématuré" shells the firing with high explosives had to be given up. Since then there had been an enormous improvement. Now "prematures" were a negligible negligible quantity, "blind" shells were getting fewer and fewer and in a very short time the ammunition fired from the British guns would tie the best in the whole area of the war. Mr. Lloyd George was able to show that the steel helmets supplied to our men had been the means of saving thousands of lives. He expressed a hope that a further protection would be forthcoming in the shape of body shields. ----: -- Practical Aids. For the Deaf. Almost any pains are worth taking if by their means the senses of sight and hearing may be preserved ; but sometimes, in spite of all that can be done, deafness goes on to the chronic form. In that case no treatment has 'been discovered that will cure it, especially especially if it is the kind, that is associated associated with atrophy of the internal parts of the ear. It is of course true that atrophy, or-wasting, of any. part -of the body means loss of 'function. If you had an atrophied hand or. foot, you could see for yourself that it was useless. But the internal ear is hidden from us, and so some of us go on hoping against hope that a miracle will be worked in our case and that some doctor somewhere will be able to raise the dead. In that way a great deal of time is lost and a great _ deal of suffering is caused. Chronic and incurable deafness deafness is a cross that must be embraced if we would not be crushed beneath it. The first thing to do is to accept the inevitable with all the cheerfulness we can command ; the next thing is to put away every bit of foolish self- consciousness and false shame about the affection, and'the third things is to get as quickly as possible one of the many excellent contrivances that have been invented to help, deaf people. In all our large cities at "the shops of the tiest opticians, you can find cases filled with these contrivances. The rules about permitting people to take them out on trial are usually very fair. Ten days' use of any one of these will show you whether it will help you or not. A very useful, form of appliance is the electrical apparatus in connection with, its own battery/ It is a bother, no doubt to carry it about and manipulate manipulate it, but not hearing at all is a greater greater bother. That' is undoubtedly the strongest crutch for the deaf'; and its makers assert that it helps to train the ear back to the recognition of human speech. For partial deafness there are smaller and simpler devices, and for those who have accepted deafness deafness as a fact beyond any curative measures, and who still have their own teeth for bone conduction of sound, the au diphone (sometimes called the dentiphone), a black guttapercha guttapercha fan held between the front teeth, is often the greatest help. It also poesesses the advantage of costing costing only a few dollars.--Youth's Companion. Companion. . AN UNDERGROUND REFUGE. and  Great Maze of _ Corridors Rooms Under a Church. - According to the Boston Transcript's Transcript's "Cosmopolitan," a sapper, who was a London architect in the days before the war, told a- queer experience experience of his in a town not far behind behind the line. A bombardment was expected, and he was told to visit the houses, find out which had cellars, and make a plan showing the position of all the cellars in the place. The job took a-week and when he had completed completed his plan an old Frenchman said to him, "Have you heard about * the catacombs under the church?" That sounded promising, and, guid- ed by the cure,, he found the overgrown overgrown entrance in the churchyard. Descending some steps cut in the rock hejfound himself exploring an astonishing astonishing maze of corridors and rooms, all cut" out of the solid chalk. The whole thing was beautifully finished and complete, and in the great rooms* or caves, there were actually sloping beds carved out from the walls. The passages ^extended so far that he was afraid to explore them, fearing fearing that he should lose his way. "It was all very fine and romantic," Jsaid the sapper, "but it was a tremendous job to make a plan of it It was really really the work of a mining engineer." However, his captain was pleased with the result. There was' room to house the whole population of the town very comfortably in these almost forgotten forgotten excavations. The underground refuge was very ancient, made--the story ran---during one of the mediaeval wars between ' the English and the French It was curious that it should have come into use when Englishmen and Frenchmen were fighting side by side. p.
