Serve a Great Need in This City. Now that the drowning season has arrived, the need of a pulmotor has again been brought to the fromt, . It will be remeuikered thai the City Council had the matter up for discus- sion last year, but no action was tak- en. In view of the fact that the pul motor had met with great success in many it was thought by a great many citizens that it would be a good investment for thevity to se- cure one. The matter came up before the "city fathers," but no action was taken, " "1 think that the city should take up the question at the very first of the sapson and get a.pulmotor," said a- citizen to the ig to-day. "It may be the means of saving a gremt many lives. And is it not worth while ? Ii it only saved one life dur- ing the entire season would it not be worth the price paid for it ? Certain ly it would; and I think it should be given some attention. Nearly every Wplace has one now, and Kingston should not be backward. Especially As this is a marine port with so many vessels. Every day one reads in the newspapers about people having Been saved by the pulmotor." William Atwell, an employee "of the Hydro-Eleetric Commission at Teron- to, owes his life to the speedy applica- | tion and good effect of a pulmofor, following his receiving a shock from a wire earrying 13,200 volts at the sta. tion, The man was engaged in cleaning operations about the plant, when in {some manner his right arm came in contact with the wire. He fell writh- ing to "the ground and a epiral oi smoke and the smell of buFning flesh first attracted the attention of fellow- workers, who immediately got out the pulmotor and applied the resuscitat- ing instrament, For some minutes there appeared to be no response to the steady pumping of the oxygen-supplying ~pulmotor, then Atwell was seen to move slight- ly; and the 'men operating the pul motor went to work with added zeal, Suddenly Atwell leaped, amd i his workmates aside in a frenzy of re- turning consciousness. Four of them were required to hold him safely till arrival of © the ambulance, hy which time the reaction had set in.

But if lake "vessels were properly manned | with able seamen sufficiently encour Aged to feel pride in their craft® and their efficiency, there would be less danger of each recurring storm being followed by the\sad story of prolong- ed anxiety changed to despair by the finding of wreckage of the shore." ~The Lake Superior disaster and the two days of anxiety nearer home are warn- ings of the nved of better provision for meeting emergencies, HER LOVE PECULIAR. « tue -- Made Husband Dig.

Alfalfa for stock raising in Can- ada is the slogan whichis alleged, with considerable truth, in attrac- ting American farmers ' from. . the middle and north-west statés into the Canadian' prairie provinces. "The winter in Canada," said Mr. L. O, Armstrong, publicity lecturer to the western division of the C. P. R.," has proved a blessing in dis guise fo the future agricultural and mixed farming development of the dominion. * Amerfean farmers," he averred, have looked into the question of Canada's possibilities, and they have a two-fold reason for © this view. First, a country without a genuine winter does not receive the adeqdate waters and chemical ferti- lizers for the soil which nature provide. 'The middle northwest states, such as Towa and Nebraska, have a very scorching sum- mer.
