Dynasty Overthrown In the twelfth century, how( the Sung dynasty was overthrown by the war-loving Tartars and soon China had changed from a peaceful nation to a warlike nation. The famous Mongol warrior and emperor, Kublai Khan, looking for new lands to quer, spied the islands strung along the Chinese coast. These islands though volcanic and often shaken by tidal waves and earthquakes, were reported to be rich in rice and foodstuffs. Kublai Khan sent an expedition of 10,000 men' against Japan. Accustomed to easy success when the very name of Kublai Khan was enough to induce wild terror, the Chinese forces met unexpectedly stuo born resistance and returned home in somewhat disgraceful defeat. In 1279 Kublai Khan sent an ultimatum borne by nine envoys. All nine were decapitated by the Japanese, who had already begun mobilization to meet the invader. Kublai Khan proceeded to call out his mighty military machine, and prepared to embark on a voyage designated to teach the Japanese "tfp-starts" a proper respect for Chinese might. The Japanese, fighting guerrilla warfare, and finally aided by a mighty typhoon which swept the huge but 'in-controllable Chinese vessels on to 7 -^anese reefs, won a great victory. Again in 1894 It was the last time there was considerable communication between the two countries for many years. Then relations were re-established, and all was good-feeling and friendship . . . until 1894 when Japan, having undertaken the study of western civilized methods, and western military methods, launched a smartly trained military force against a decadent and paralyzed China to inflict a stunning defeat upon the mainlanders, most of the fighting taking place in Chinese territory. Suicide Problem Is Responsibility The problem of suicide is vast and all-pervading o* every rank of society that it constitutes a medico-social obligation of the first importance, Dr. David Kennedy Henderson, noted Edinburgh psychiatrist, said last week at the New York Academy of Medicine. Dr. Henderson, who is Physician Superintendent of the Royal Edin-Hospital for Mental Disorders and Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Edinburgh, also discussed the social menace of alcoholism and drug addiction and the instability of •called genius-personality. Education Urged to the suicide problem, he stressed that it can be successfully by education In its broadest and finest sense."

AGONIZING ECZEMA ITCH Stopped on Second Bay • Mrs. X of Camp-bellton,N.B.,writes: 'Icannol tellyou how much suffering it caused... I tried Bel-Zema . . . the second day no itch... inside a week every sign of Bel-Zema is an entirely new idea in a treatment for eczema and kindred skin disorders. It is easily applied. Itchiness is relieved immediately. In most cases scale disappears in a few days. Bel-Zema is non-greasy--has a pleasant odour--dries quickly--does not stain or discolour clothing or bed linen --washes off easily with warm or cold water--is soothing and non-irritating even in extreme cases.

Term:- arranged Climbing plants or vines play an important part in any scheme of landscape gardening, adding a finishing touch to wall, fence or verandah that is not possible by any other means. There is a mistaken idea that such plants may be harmful to brick or stone-work. Aside from the fact that climbers add a little trouble to the job of painting the wood-work around the doors and windows, authorities claim that there are no harmful effects whatever but, on the other hand, there ■e several substantial advantages. A house with the walls well screen-[ lg much cooler in the hot weather for the simple reason that sun does not reach heat absorbing brick or As for verandahs, the advantage in shade, coolness and privacy of such natural screens is too obvious need detailed explanation. There are many type of both quick-| growing annuals or perennials?-among them ones hardy enough for most tions of this province. Productive Vegetables The gardener with only a little land to spare should concentrate on those vegetables which give the biggest returns for the smallest space occupied. Among such kinds are beans, carrots, onions, lettuce, swiss chard, spinach, cucumbers and beets. In the lesser-known vegetables are: leeks, egg and pepper plants, broad beans and cos lettuce. These can all be grown in most districts. Experts advise the inclusion of something new in the vegetable line each year so that variety will be gradually widened.

An Alkaline Soil Most trees, shrubs, flowers and' grass grow best in a neutral or alk°?bj line soil. Only a few varieties of plants need an acid condition. Ho#! can we tell what kind of soil we hav£?1 Buy at any drug store 10 cents worth of litmus paper, take a cupful of the! soil, add water and if a blue litmus] paper turns red the soil is acid. If it'; stays blue it Is on the alkaline side.' In order to make an acid soil' "sweet" or alkaline, first get air into the soil by adding sifted coal ashes.j cinders, strawy manure, agricultural slag from blast furnaces, or agricultural lime. Soil must also have drainage for taking away excess water. Plants can-1 not get food from water-logged earth.' The soil may be clay or sand and in' either case it must contain humus to] supply plant food. Humus is decayed vegetable matter. Toil from the top o* the ground where vegetables or farm: crops have been raised contains humus and 's called topsoil. your Pots, Pans & dairy Equipment i ALLCOPPER HORC Gir
