THE COLBORNE EXPRESS, COLBORNE, ONT, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1927 7 IJFEWASA BURDEN ^Restored to Health Through the Use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. "It is a pleasure," says Mrs. Ross OBoulter, of Victoria, P.E.I., "to tell you of the new health and strength I got through the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Before taking the pills life was a burden to me. I was so badly run down that I did not know What to do. My blood seemed to have turned to water, I was very pale, constantly tired, and was losing flesh. It was a trial to attempt housework. Added to this I had a bad cough and my husband and friends thought I was going into consumption. . The medical treatment I was taking did not appear to do me any good, and I had about given up hope when a Mend urged me to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I got six boxes and found bo much benefit from them that I got 'six more boxes. Before these were all taken I was a new woman restored again to good health. I gained in weight, the cough left me, my appetite returned and I once more had a good color. Better still, I was able to do my housework without fatigue, j heedless to say I always recommend Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to ailing friends, and I hope this will be the means of pointing the road to health to some other sufferer."

Expedition Seeks Forgotten Jews Colony in Abyssinia Reported Dwelling in Isolation One of the most interesting ethnological expeditions that have been planned for many a day is that which is going "off the rfiap" in the wilds of Abyssinia, to investigate the Fala-ihas or Black Jews, large numbers of whom are reported to be dwelling in an isolated little world of their own behind the ranges, writes a traveller in the London Daily Mail.

Queer things have happened to more than one straggling colony of The Chosen People when it got cut off from its Do you know for instance, about the 300 Chinese Jews, herded together at the city of Kai-feng-fu, in Ho-nan province, sadly contemplating the ruins of their synagogue, and carrying on, by word of mouth, the teachings of their last rabbi, who died 80 years ago? They are very poor and dejected. None of their wealthy fellow communities elsewhere in tho world lends them a hand, nor does any museum or archaelogical institution take steps to preserve what remains, and records are still to be found there. The British Museum, at all events, knows about them, for it has a number of Hebrew manuscripts from Kai-feng-fu, and there are some, I believe, in the Bodleian Library. How the Black Jews happened to get cut off in a remote part of Abyssinia has still to be ascertained. The origin of the Chinese Jews is known; they themselves have commemorated it. They were camp followers of a Persian king who was driven out of his country and energetically pursued by the armies of the Caliph Oth-man, 1,300 years ago. They lost their way and failed to keep in touch with what was left of the Persian army when it ventured to go home. There is to-day a stone in the ruined synagogue that records the construction of the first place of worship in 1163, and its rebuilding about 355 years ago. #5M Peppery.

The Modernized Motorcycle The "modernized motorcycle" is the description given the 1928 Harley-Davidson, by Walter Andrews, Toronto, Ont., agent for that line of motorcycles. In pointing out the many newi features on the 1928 models, Mr. Andrews is particularly enthusiastic about the fore-wheel brake, which is of tho internal expanding type. This additional breaking surface when used in conjunction with the present rear-wheel brake, affords the ultimate i» safety for all road and traffic conditions. Another improvement of importance is the all-speed oiler which is controlled from the throttle. As the speed is increased through opening the throttle, the oil pump is caused to feed more oil to the motor. The 1928 models are on display a Walter Andrews, Ltd., 346 Yonge St. Toronto, and should be seen' whei visiting the Exhibition. • As a means of fostering interest in middle distance running in Canada, the Canadian National Railways Recreation League has presented to the Amateur Athletic Union of Canada the above handsome bronze statuette and medals. The trophy is a hand-bronze statuette, on a base of native Canadian wood. It is a perpetual award and will be held for one year by the winner of the one-mile at the Dominion Championship meet at Toronto, Saturday, August 2nd. The runners who are first, second and third will receive gold, silver and bronze medals respectively. The presentation of the trophy and medals was made to the A.A.U. of C. on behalf of Canadian National officers and employees who are members of the Canadian National Recreation League, of which Sir Henry W.

Lane nthe September issue of "The Delineator Magazine" that will startle grown-ups who have been in the habit of laying their young son's 'tales" to pure cusedness. Pointing out that parents often frighten--even if inadvertently--their children into lying, Mr. Lane tinues: "Fear of parents is one of the most distressing fears of childhood. Why should the child be afraid of his parents? The parents' anger, the par-punishment--perhaps just the parents' mild disapproval--hangs ov him like a cloud. When a parent d that his child is afraid of hi: he ought to do almost anything to i the fear and establish a better relationship." According to Mr. Lane, children will also lie from fear of being teased, from fear of ridicule, from fear of being thought incompetent and a booby -almost any fear will produce a Occasionally children lie in order escape comparison with others. They even lie from fear of giving offense, a sort of "lie of convenience" of childhood. Again, a lie can be a form of wish fulfilment. We say things are true which we would like to have true, or would make true if we could. Adults often tell lies of this character, and children frequently frequently do. "Why do we objeqt to children's lying?" asks Mr. Lane. "The reason ought to be, I think, that lying makes life with other people entirely unde-pendable. This reason, I am aware, is not the one usually given to children. We tell children all sorts of things. Wo say: 'Lying is bad.' We say: 'You will be happier when you tell the truth.' Perhaps we mention the ninth commandment--and then try to tell the child what it means. not sure just how much all of this rings true with children. To be happy simply because you drave told the truth, and then had all ports trouble as a result of telling it, is strange sort of happiness to him. He would rather lie and get out of the difficulty. Tho method of those par-who tell their children that lying at liked, that lying makes them unpopular, is to be preferred.

Get Him First One tragi-comic incident marked the tenseness of the week which saw armed policemen at every turn in New York on the look-out for bomb-throwers. Two of them saw a man running with a revolver in his hand. At once they suspected a dangerous "red1," They ran him down, leaped upon him, knocked him out, and beat him up in ; approved police style, fracturing his skull with neatness and dispatch, before the man could give any ac-runt of himself, or explain what he as about.
