Until I should have recovered com- pletely there would be no way for me to obtal information from the outside world except by using the telephone in my parlor, and if my nurse really was my jailor, she would not permit that if she knew' it. It would be necessary, therefore, for me to conceal my every movement, my every thought and purpose from her. To a nature aceustomed to candor it might be expected that this sudden necessity for secretiveness could readily prove an impossible task. But I nd it so.

"NORMAL" BLOOD SERUM Use Advised for Rendering Children Immune from Paralysis i New York, Aug. 17. -- Family physicians were advised by Dr. Abra- ham Zingher, of "Willard-Parker Hos- pital, to try the use of "normal" blood serum obtained from parents as a method of rendering their chil- dren immune to infantile paralysis. Many cases of this disease have been treated in Willard-Parker Hospital during the present épidemic. The theory on which Dr. Zingher and his assistants are ' working is that the blood of the normal adult contains the anti~bodies which neu- tralize the virus of poliomyelitis, or infantile paralysis. Some physicians believe the presence of these anti- bodies is due to the fact that the parents have had the disease in an unrecognized form, It is stated that if the theory of this anti-bodies is correct, the blood serum treatment may prove as effective in preventing infantile paralysis as vaccanation is in preventing typhoid. "The treatment is entirely harm- less, and the experiment is worth trying," sald Dr. Zingher. "It can be administered easily by any re- putable family physician. . "The theory is based on the fact ) apparently are immune to the dis- } ease, although a few of them con- carry the imthunity of the parents.' mentioned by CLOT all so far witnesses uestioned by 'the assistant district that a very large portion of adults tract it,/and on the fact that children in the nursing period seldom are vic- tims.

Therefore, hook the bait as de- scribed, and strike at the first sign, without giving any chan for gorg- ing at leisure and subsequent trouble in removing a fairly swallowed hook. When using white grubs pass the hook fh at the mouth, or just below it, and on to the tail. This gives a natural curve, which few bass can | resist. When the bait is crayfish pass the barb in at the mouth and through to the tail. This also gives the important natural curve, and a bait so rigged and sent down with Mr. So-and-So's coinpliments, is well nigh irresistible, Another important thing is that baits Jo rigged may serve two or three'times. This is no trifling mat. ter, when fish are biting freely. Asa rule, crayfish, frogs, minnows, and so on, are difficult to secure in numbers and the more service one can be made to render, the better. And fur- thermore, a bait so rigged will al- most invariably slide up the gut, at the fish's first rush and so be presery- ed to do another turn.

If we add to the foregoing figures the quantities of vegetable and api- mal oils eonsumed in Canada, the ag- gregate will not be wery much less thap 250,000,000 gallons. Very few realize that, per capita, Canadians consume aunually about thirty-five gallons. , This dees not in- clude vegetable oils brought into the into account, . The different uses to which the products of crude petroleum are be- ing put multiply almost every year. Many years ago the ardent promoters told the public that eventually the engines which drew freight from the Atlantic to the Pacific would be pro- pelled by oil. Scientists confirmed these statements with the condition as to supply attached to their find- ings. Some of the prognostications made have come true, but many were made as to profits from the exploita- tion of oil wells that very properly led the over-sanguine to jail. It is true now that oil is used for hauling big trains over our mountains and for a hundred other purposes that were not thought of in the years which do not seem to be long past. Many thought that the old-fashioned paraffin lamp was doomed to pa away, but the oil companies today tell us that as much is being used as ever. The farmers not within reach of the gas and the electric current be. Moreover appliances for the use of oil have yastly improved. For illuminating purposes oil bas heen adapted to produce results that ago. To-day far more cooking is be- ing done by oil stoves and the acei- dents resulting therefrom are less numerous and the general results are very much better. Advances of this character have served to maintain the demand for ofl and which fully explains the development within the Dominion of a very large and sue- cessful industry. Quebec Men in Ontario Factories. One of Canada's agricultural im- plement industries provided for ser- vice in khaki no less than 600 men. Some of these it was, of course, not difficult to replace, but a large pro- were an important factor in thé measure of the omtput. Those ob- tained to replace "them, of which some 300 were brought from Quebec, had to be trained, and 'they could not 'be classed as competent for some weeks after they were put to work. Conditions at present, and as they for some time have been, are such that men such as could be got were put In Ontario especially the is in itself an expensive undertaking. Only higher wages and other consid- erations can bring men away. from To-day, In every part of industrial Ontario, per- manent signs aré fixed over the of- fices of iron-working plants reading, "Men Wanted." The announcement is not qualified by the term '"'experi- enced" or that skill of any kind is required. Canada's New Rifle, ¢ - Details which have been received in Ottawa in regard to the new Cana- dian service arm, which replaces the Ross rifle, indicate that it is, as a matter of fact, not a Lee-Enfield at all, but a new weapon on entirely modern lines. It might properly be called the new Enfield rifle, as it is being manufactured at the Enfield arsenal, but it is not a Lee-Enfighd, since Lee was not its'designer. The pew rifle, rding to what bas been beard here, is practically what was planned before the war to have been the mew British seryice arm of 276 calibre. When the war broke out, however, it was thought unwise to change to a different cali- bre with so much 3083 ammunition on hand, and accordingly a rifle em- bodying all the features of the new been adopted.
