If batches of 140 armed Germans continue to be captured by parties of four Canadians, how long will the Kaiser's army last? The Hamilton Times does not want the Kaiser killed. It hopes he will live Jong #nough to be lexhibit- ed in all Allied countries after the War. He would get killed, then, sure. { Ly first thing that is essential to Afiied success inthe war is the de- struction of the elaborately construct. ed theory that Germany is uncon- querable,.' This idea is working Its way through German bhibber. The peace that Germany would like to give the Allies is the peace it has given to Russia, a peace with Germany acting as dictator and ab- sorber. Not that kind on your life dre the replies of the Allied peoples It is estimated in the United States that the wheat yield this year will 'be 900,000,000 bushels, or 26, 000,000 more than last year's. .

ANTHEM RENDERING. Creatore, the noted Ttalian band conductor, has startled critics of Montreal with a daring and British ren- NATIONAL the musical {impressive rendering of the. ational Anthem. The ordinary dering of this anthem is certainly not very impressive In chiirches, it is volume that is aimed at. Some of our best military bands--the old R. C.H.A. for one--played the anthem reverently. Now the Italian conduc- tor comes forth with a new reading which is said to be worthy of emula- tion. Taken in slow time, opening with perfect phrases, and soft sonor- ous intonation of a well modulated prayer, a lofty climax is reached which is thrilling, powerful and sug- gestive of majestic triumph. Thus our National Anthem possesses pos- sibilities that we have not realized and an Italian shows them to us HURRY ANI: HEALTH. Don't hurry. 'It wears the system like worry. It is especially harmlul in hot weather. Hurry tears out the nerves and the bodily tissues rapidly, puts lines in the face, interferes with digestion and other intestinal action, and in time produces permanent pal- pitation of the heart. Loss 6f both physical and mental control and a number of varieties of nervous dis- orders may also result from chronic "hurrying up." Hurry exhausts twice the energles in a given time than would be re- quired to accomplish twice the work if undertaken in a leisurely manner. Don't hurry at yomr meals. If vou have only a few minutes in which to snatch a bite, forego the usual breakfast which requirés careful mas- tication. Instead, take a cup of warm milk or break a couple of raw eggs into a cup. Thesé you may swallow quickly. They will digest oasily. The system can stand an immense amount of physical labor for an indefinite time, but it cannot long withstand the wear of hurry. Have plenty of emercise. He alert in your work. But don't wear out before your time hurrying. A GENEROUS DONATION.
