DOCTOR PRAISES ZAM-BUK "For sixteen years," writes Dr. A. P. SBhibley of Washington, D.C., "XY have used Zam-Buk in my ractice, and am convinced that there nothing to compare with it for skin' troubles, from roughness and irrita- tion to chronic skin diseases. Zam-Buk, without a doubt, has won- derful curative properties, and when I have oceasion to recommend a balm to my patients, I always recommend Zam-Buk, 1 have found the results from its use to be perfectly satisfac- tory."' Members of the medical profession are noted for their caution in recom- mending & remedy--only doing so are apt when they have absolyte confidences - in #. The fact that Zam-Buk is so highly recommended by doctors the world over, and that in Dr. Shibley's experience it has stood the test of sixteen years' constant use, puts it, undeniably, in a class by itself. In the home, in the office, shop and_ Sactory, on the farm and when travell- ing, Zam-Buk should be kept always handy. It is indispensable for all sores, eczema, boils, ulcers, blood: poisoning and piles, as well as for cuts, bruises, burns and sealds.

A member of the liouse of Com- mons at Westminster is forbidden by law to resign his seat, but if he ac- cepts an office under the crown, his seat becomes legally vacant. So if he desires to retire from Parliament, he must get appointed to such an of- fice, and he attains his purpose by applying for the "Stewardship of the Chiltern Hundreds' (or the manors of East Hundred, Northstead, or Hempholme, which are of nominal value). A "hundred" is a division of an English country thus designated, it is believed, because originally it sted of 100 resident families. w, B ckinghamshire , as ifs name plies, is a section abounding in eech ferest, and among its beech- clad hills, the hundreds of the Chil- tern (or chalk hills), which belong to the crown, were so infested with robbers in the good old times that a Government functionary, styled the "Steward of the Chiltern Hundreds," was appointed to keep them in check. The duties of this office have long since ceased to be more than nom- inal, but iis retention is useful for ithe purpose of enabling an M.P. to vacate his seat. Up to the nineteenth century there was a salary of 20 shillings attached to the post, but there is none now. The steward holds the position but a short time, The rule is that the Chilterns can- not be'granted to more than one per- son on the same day and each new warrant (issued by the Chancellor of the Exchequer) expressely revokes the grynt to the last holder, the new | steward retaining it in his turn until { another is appointed. i Okapi Goes to Belgium. British naturalists who have been confidently expecting that the only live okapl In captivity was to be brought to the Zoological Gardens in Regent Park, were disappointed when the news came from Antwerp that the animal had been brought there from the Congo by Dr. Lebrum. It was the gift of Mme. Landaghem, whose husband is in the Congo medical service. The okapl is the survivor of a distant ancestor of the giraffe, An adult stands about five feel high, and although it has the general shape of the giraffe it's feck is relatively shorter and its forelegs are not so high in proportion to its hind- quarters The sides' of the animal's head are light fawn color and the general coloration of the body is a dark pur- ple. The most striking character is that the rump and the upper part of ihe legs are transversely striped with black and whfte. It was first known in 1901, having been found in"the Semliki forest, haunting low undergrowth and swamps. This particular specimen was in Mme. Landaghem's possession for a num- ber of years, and photographs of it show it eating out of her hand. consi First Woman Smoker. It is said that the first white wo- man to form the habit of smoking tobacco was Magy Frith, an English- woman, better known to her contem- poraries as "Moll Cut-Purse," whe was born in 1565. In her time pock- ets had not been invented, and gen- tlemen carried their money in purses worn at the girdle. 'Moll Cut-Purse" early became an adept in the art of cutting the strings of purses without the knowledge of their owners. She always wore men's Despite her dishonest methods of making a living, she was good-natured, and divided her spoils liberally with those in need. In ancient prints she is usually pictured smoking a pipe, and she was undoubtedly the first white woman , to proelaim publicly her allegiance te "Lady Nicotine." _ She lived to be nearly 80, and at her death left a will requesting that the remainder of her fortune be spent in merry. making at her funeral. + ---- ete Gutter-Cleaning Plough.

Canada was able to obtain these 'orders because she advanced credit to these countries. Canada was able to give this credit only because you bought Victory Bonds. Great Britain, with France, Bel- gium, and other Allies, are now prepared to place large orders with us for the products of our factories, farms, forestsand fisheries--provided Canada again gives them credit. Credit must be given if we are to have any guarantee of £004 times Victory Loan 19 a ears and good wages. But our workers on these orders must be paid their wages in cash; so, much of the money that you invest in Victory Bonds will go out in wages to Canadians. You will be absolutely protected-- you will get a good rate of interest and all of your money will be paid back at the time stated in the Bond. Every cent will be spent in Canada, of all. and ultimately circulate tothe benefit Canada can give this credit only if you again buy Victory Bonds.
