MICHELL i - |On Thursday Evening in Connection With the Course in Social Servic at Queen's University. : The fourth lecture im this series was delivered on Thursday evening by Prof. H. Michell on the subject of "The Inefficient Worker." The man or woman who has never learned a trade, the unskilled worker who has nothing but physical strength to rely on in the battle of life, is beaten before the struggle has well begun. The last to be hired when good times come, and the first to be discharged when trade begins tp slacken, the inefficient worker presents a sad and serious spectacle. His small earnings do {not allow himy to enjoy any of the little luxuries and elevating ameni- ties of life. Living from hand to (mouth, he is at the mercy of every {wind that blows, and often from the {ranks of the unemployed he sinks 'into that most melancholy of all human beings, the unemployable, ithe man who cannot work. | Setting aside those who are inca- {pacitated from mental or physical disease, as presenting a problem peculiar in itself, the lecturer pro- ceeded to give a sketch of the life history of such an one. With no taste for school, fretting at its re- straints' and discipline, he leaves at the earliest possible age, abla per- haps only just to read and write Employment comes easily to him, he can make what is to him good wages as errand boy, or at selling papers, or anyone of the occupations that will employ a boy, and make no other demands of him than that he will be ordinarily quick and intelli- gent Such employment will con- tent him for a time, but as he grows older he finds that his earnings do not keep pace with his years, and by ithe time he ig a man, he finds that he has followed "a blind alley," which leads to nowhere, and he is a man without a trade, and it if too late to learn one, the golden oppor- tunities of youth have been lost. | 'What is the comedy? The lectur- er answered most emphatically, the "absolute prohibition of all child labor, and the teaching of every boy and girl of a trade, skill in which {will provide them with a sure means lof livelihood. In conclusion, the lecturer turned {to another aspect of the subject, the training of the home. The school can do much, but 'it is facing a {hopeless task if it is not backed by the home. The parent who does not (recognize that the future' welfare of his children depends upon their itrainjng in youth, who does not set betofe them the ideal of worthy citizenship, the ideal of the crafts man delighting in his skill, fails in 'the duty that parenthood imposes upon him. Child labor has been one of the curses of the world for cen- fl turies. The duty: of society is to abolish it for ever, and set in its {place that will and kindly training | that makes the efficient worker and the worthy citizen. OLD MAN SMASHED WINDOW i AND THEN ASKED POLICE TO SEND HIM TO JALIL FOR WINTER Poor John Ross, is a Native of To- ronto, and He Was Given Railway Pass as Far as Napanee. - "Please, sir, 1 broke a window in a house down the street and I want to be sent to jail." Poor old John Ross walked into police headquarters on Wednesday afternoon and made this rather un- usual plea to Sergeant Samuel Ar- niel. John is over sixty years of age, has no home, but simply makes a stopping place wherever he is able to hang his hat. Pt is very seldom .that a person asks to be sent to jail. The major- ity of people who go to jail do so be- cause the law has sent them there. This was certainly a new one for the police to have a man ask to be sent to jail. Investigation was made, and it was found that. Ross had smashed a window in a vacant house on On- tario street; by so doing he thought he could be put away in the jail for the cold winter months. | Even breaking a ang could not-get Ross into jail angi when in- formed that he could not be given the redt cure he so much desired, he declared that there was always some person taking the joy out of life. Ross belongs to Toronto, so in- stead of sojourning in the castle near the cricket field, he is new making the trip to the Queen City in easy #iages, that is to say, that Kingston gave him a boost as far as 'Napanee. Other places along the line are expected to help him so that he can get back to his native city. Constable Lesslie Armstrong went i tae G.T/R. station with Ross on ursday afternoon to see that he {got on the train all right. Breaking' windows is an old game that Ross has indulged in before. served a term in. the jail at | elleville, so reports says, for doing 'a Carrie Nation #tunt on some win- dows there. Useful Xmas.

Burdock Blood Bitters The symptoms of dyspepsia are so aumerous and diversified in different individuals that probably no descrip- tion could exactly represent them as they occur in any given case, but a few of the most prominent .are a ris- ing and souring of food, pain, flatu- lence and distention of the abdomen, a sensation of discomfort after every meal, which is sometimes followed by sickness and vomiting. To get rid of dyspepsia a careful arrangement of the diet is necessary aftd due time must he given for the digestion of the meal. You «will find that Burdock Blood Bitters will help with this digestion. It does this by toning up the stomach in such a way that the dyspepsia seon disappears. : Mr. Robt. Baldwin, Winnifred, Alta., writes: "I cannot speak too highly of Burdock Blood Bitters for curing dyspepsia, of which | have been a sufferer for years. 1 have tried a good many doctors and pro- prietary medicines, so one day 1 thought I would try something dif- ferent. 1 got a bottle of B. B. B. from our local store, as it was about the only remedy he kept, and I can certainly say that I was more than pleased with the results, as I got bet- ter right away. 1 will always recom- mend it.to other sufferers."

Sinners Like Hest of Us. In speaking at Chalmers church reception to Rev. Dr. Wilson last evening, Rev. J. W, Stephen, of St. Andrew's church, said he had been asked on deciding to accept the call to Kingston if he was not afraid to appear in the kimk pulpit -and¥preach before college professors. , He had replied that he was, but he had one consolation, and that was that the professors 'were all sinners like the rest of us." A limited number of bunches of heather will be sold on the- streets on Saturday, St. Andrew's Day, for benefit of Red Cross. The schooner Minnie "Bride is ashore near St. Anne des Monts, Que., and will be a total loss. npn That is the proportion of med! cine contained in Zam-Buk, and that is why Zam-Buk's healing powers are so superior to ordinary oint- ments, which contain about 5 per cent. medicine and the balance animal fat. = Zam-Buk contdins absolutely. no animal fat or harsh mineral drugs, but is composed exclusively of ex- tracts of medicinal plants and herbs and vegetable oils Thess are so blended, refined and concen- trated that they contain the maxi- mum amount of soothing, antisep- tic and healing pawer. In addition to this; Zam-Buk has marvellous powers of penetration. It thus reaches and destroys all germs in the underlying tissues, leaving no trace of disease to break out again.
