During the Boer War at the end of the last century it was observed that the soldiers who ate freely of choco late and other sweets bore up against . the fatigue of long marches . better than their fellows, It was that which prompted Queen Victoria once to send each soldier in South Africa a small box of chocolate. Not enough cholo- late fell to the lot of each soldier to sugtain his energies for a very long period, but the Queen's gift was a good hygenic gesture. + Shortly before the Great War ex- _ periments conducted in the German army omfirméd the experience of the previous war. They 'showed that a certain increaso of sugar in the ration was useful in enabling the troops to make forced marches without great fatigue. = Even more conclusive was the result of an examination of the blood of Marathon contestants, show- Ing that in the exhausted runners at The following year the men were sup-| plied with sugar to 'consume during the race, with the result that they finished in far better condition than formerly. - Ty Physiologists tell us that as a rule work is nit done at the expense of muscular substance, but through the ~ energy liberated by the fats and car- bohpdrates in. the body.

The potentialities of happiness in a penny packet of seeds are always great; but the morning glories seem a little to surpass all others, especial: ly for those who can have but few flowers to cultivate, whose activities must be confined to the pots or boxes on a roof terrace or window sill. Morning glories are ready to grow anywhere and for anyone; just as in the country they will fling themselves over a fence, a porch, or a chicken house, so will they veil with beauty a window frame, a chimney or an ugly bit of city wall. And they are delight ful in all their doirgs from first to last, behaving with « companionable precision which enables one to count upon their charming activities and movements almost from day to day.

The Ontario Dental Health Day to be held on Wednesday, October 20th, will be something new in so far as this country is concerned. We have had special days of various kinds but we have never had one set aside for the purpose of informing the public how to protect themselves from the rav- ages of Dental diseases. The import- ance of the movement and the neces- sity .for some such activity cannot be gainsald and the Ontario Department of Health deserves credit for Initiating this effort' to educate the public in re- &ard to the prevention of tooth decay and pyorrhea. Many instructive and helpful activi ties are being arranged and the lead- ing health, educational and. social wel fare organizations are all co-operating in a most enthusiastic manner." The dentists of the province will give free "dental exdmination and advice to all who request it upon that day. In the Marger centres special clinics will be arranged and in the smaller places the dentists will receive the patients In their own offices. - General educational events will also be held. These will take the form of public meetings and mass meetingh of school children. In order to stimu- late Interest in Oral Hygiene among the boys and girls the service clubs are donating prizes to be given to the pupils writing the best essays or pre- paring the most attractive posters on this subject.

A survey has shown that the aver- | age ag®of marriage for young men is now between 26 and 29 years, while that for girls is between 20 and 24. Japanese observers point cut that not more than twenty years ago such "late marriages" would have been conslder- ed a menace to the welfare of the 'State, and declare that a revolution of the family system has occurred in less than twenty years. Even in the early days of this cen- tury, ft is explained, the principal social duty in Japan was perpetuation of the family, and this presupposed early marriage. Girls ,who waited un- til they were 20 were rare, and young men were married at 21 years or ear- lier. But economic force has destroy- ed this system. : The head of most families can, no longer assure support to young mar-| ried couples while they are getting a start in life.
