Italy has come back, and Austria has gone back, is the pithy way the Toronto Globe expresses it. The Austrian defeat at the hands of the Italians will bring gloom to Vienna and Berlin. The enemy capi- tals were none too cheerful before. It's England, not Ireland, that should be demanding home rule. To- dity three Scotchmen are at the head respectively of the Empire's land, naval and air services, And a Welsh- man is premier, * No, Mabel, the press does not in- tend to publish the ages of the Kingston ladies who registered last week. [Even if we were heartless enough to do such a thing, the re- gistrar wouldn't permit it, i Aerial mall service in Canada, says the London Advertiser, is begun by the sending of greetings from Mayor Martin of Montreal to"Mayor Church There won't in that be anything very weighty load, "The future of the world les in the hands of the Anglo-Saxon race. As a member of that race; are you doing all you ean to help wih the war? The clear duty of every man not on the firing line is to save, serve and sac- rifice at home, Two thirds of all the German sub- marines launched are to-day at the bottom of the sea. The rest of them bid fair to share the same fate. The "Hun's campaizn of frightfulness, on land or sea or air, is proving a dis- mal failure. 4 -------------- Leaders of the International Bible Students were recently sentenced to twenty years' imprisonment each. The victims of this organization in Kingston will = doubtless appreciate the "finished mystery" or mysterious finish of their leaders. Down In Iroquois you could get a hair cut for twenty cents until a week ago. Now it is only twenty- five cents, It is plainly to be seen that the Iroquois tonsorial artists have not been hobnobbing with far- mers or butchers, or they would have known how to charge long ere this. Dor't form any estimate of a man from what other people say of him, is the advice of the London Adver- "tiser.

The men who thave been sta- tioned in England and who have fought at the front deny the alle. gation. Women who make such reckless and unfounded /chargea would be better employed H they remained at home and kept silent. "There ig more at' stake in the war than the existence of individual states' or empires or the fate of a continent. The whole of modern civilization is at stake, and whether it 'will perish or be submerged, as has happened to previous civiliza- tions of older types, or whether it will live and progress depends upon whether the nations engaged in this war, and even those that are on- lookers, learn the lessons that the experience of the war may teach them.""---Vigcount Grey. IDEAS, suffered dis- illusionment," admits Prof. ¥. H. Giddings, a prominent Américan educator, "it was the United States It took twp years of a world war to Xe that no country can be independent of the civiliza- tion which surrounds it. The world is not big enough to contain the Am- idea and the Prussian idea, One or the other must go down.' The American idea, in this sense, is synonymous with the Anglo-Saxon idea. OPPOSING "If ever a nation A a, convince to-day WOUNDS THAT PAIN NOT. That a high-speed rifle bullet may pierce a man and cause him so little pain that he is unconscious of his wound has long been known. A slower bullet would cause consider- able pain and shock.

During the long course of de- velopment of man and his ancest- ors, swift plereing and laceration such as inflicted by a high-speed bullet were not encountered, and hence no pain reaction against them would evolve, while slow lacerations were most common, and the useful- ness of being conscious of them in the keen way of pain is most evl- - -- : - A jautomobiles' containing. the staf Cu [and guests, bands, returned YY . a {dicrs, divided inte bodies repre -----t § jative of their oid uni ON DOMINION DAY Fo BE A [the various big. ho GREAT EVENT.

Crile, "a device of exquisitely sharp kaives driven at superlatively high speed might cut the body to pieces without causing any pair whatever." A TRIBUTE TO A WIFE. A good wife needs no monument, for she will continue to live in tho memory and affection of her fam- ily. House and riches are the in- heritance of fathers, and a prudent wife is from the Lord. Occasionally a man bears testimony to the great help his wife has been to him in his private and public affairs. Such a man is the late Charles Warren Fairbanks, once vice-president of the United States. In his will he bequeaths $50,000 to the city of Indianapolis and other large sus to charitable institutions, but the striking point in connection ®ith the will is the tribute which he paid to his' wife: : "The said sum with the interest thereon shall be known as 'The Cornelia Cole Fairbanks Memorial ~40 commemorate the lfe and vir- tues of a great woman, who was an inspiration to.better living and do-| ing and whose holy influence 1! gratefully acknowledge. She was an ideal Christian wife and mother, making home ap altar of love and devotion; a patriot who Inculeated love of country and its institutions; a lover of 'Indianapolis, who sought to advance its intellectual, moral and physical well-being; a {riend of the poor, counting no service or sympathy in. their behalf too great." It is a noble tribute, and doubt- less nobly déserved. It might quite as justly be spoken of niany a wife, who goes through life unhonored and vusung.
