For Your Hair Suppose someone told you that actu- ally at your own door, within your own home, was the greatest hair tonic that over was discovered. That you simply needed to bow before it for a short time now and again; that it cost you nothing, in fact is as cheap as the air you breathe. Of course you would he delighted. You would count it a fortunate day in the year when you found that out. It is sunshine, pure, unadulterated sunshine, It may be because sunshine costs nothing that so many people are ignor- ant of its blessings and so slow to profit from its wonderful curative and strengthening qualities. To bring re- sults, it Is necessary to take two sun shampoos a week of between one and two hours' duration. Choose a bright clear day and let the sun's rays fall directly on your head without shining in your eyes. Let it hang loose and part it in as many different ways as possible so the rays will fall on every hair, brushing it well Although it is not injurious to dry it in sunlight after a wet shampoo, these by-weekly shampoos should be given without the use of water. TWILIGHT HOUR STORY Chicks and Other Little Friends Before we find out whers 'Fluffy, the persian house cat is, I want to tell you something about Topsy, the black barn cat. Of course, you remember Topsy had some very cute kitties, didn't she? They were big enough now to leave their Mamma, so they were up at the next farm. Jilly had lots of fun with the other three every day, and he used to write Uncle Will and Auntie Kate, whom he visited in the city, about them, so one day he got a letter from his Aunt Kate, saying, "Billy, 1 wonder iI could have one of those little kitties for a pet. You tell me such funny things about them you make me want to have one. Pick me out the one you think is the prettiest and we'll get it on Sunday when we come out to the farm." Billy went out to see which was the nicest, but say, he had the worst time choosing the prettiest one, Some- times he thought the all-black one was the cutest and then he'd have to change his mimd because the little grey one all at once stood up on fits hind legs while it age Blackie over the ear when they Were playing. Then the little black and white was go pretty. It had a white circle all around its neck like a necklace and a lovely white shirt all down its breast and a little white tip on the end of its tail. Well now, what would you do? Do you know what Billy did? He just shut fis eyes and took the first that came to play with a string that he pulled along the floor and that was the little grey one. Billy thought he'd tell his aunt about it standing on its hind legs so she would keep on coax- ing it to stand up with a piece of dog biscuit or bit of liver until it could do it for a trick. Then one of Billy's little friends wanted one of the kitties and hie gave him the black one. So now there was only one left for Topsy. Topsy wouldn't like it if they should take all the kitties, so Billy left her one, ' But now what do you think hap- pened About a week after the other kitties' were gone that little kitten ran ; Home Chats \ SMRIE ANN BEST - gee It was so little the baker didn't see It. Well, well, that was just terrible. Mamma Lady picked it up and she couldn't help crying a little for, do you know, the kitty was dead, and the baker was so sorry because he did it, but then wasn't it a good thing the pussy didn't feel it at all because it happened so quickly. It happenéd just as fast as it did to the chicken when it was time for it to go when Daddy wanted a chicken roast for dinner. Do you remember when I told you about that? Just then Billy came along and Mamma Lady showed him the little dead kitty. Of course, you know Billy felt pretty bad about it, Yes, he nearly cried. You see because he was a boy he couldn't cry very well, for boys don't cry, do they? I know sometimes little girls do. How- ever, he felt just awfully sorry. Well, Mamma Lady and Billy went in the house and found a nice white shoe box and they put green leaves and pretty flowers in it and laid the kitty in it and covered it over with the lid. Then Billy dug a whole in the mice goft ground under a shady tree and they put the box in It and marked a place on top with a pretty rose bush. "Those horrid old cars," said Billy. "Yes, dear," said Mammay Lady, "now you can see how quickly an accident may happen." "you don't think Fluffy was run over, do you, Mamma?"", "Oh no, dear, I believe I know where she is. Just wait a bit." amd memes Sunday School Lesson >> oo June 14. Lesson XI--The Resurrec- tion and the Ascension--Luke 24: 25-40, 650, 61.

THE WALK TO EMMAUS, 24: 25-29, _ In connection with earlier lessons it was suggested 'hat Jesus did not make public claim to be Messiah, and that it was difficult for his enemies t» get evidence against him on this head which they might bring to the notice o. Pilate. Here these two dis- ciples on the road to Emmaus explain to the unknown stranger that this Jesus of Nazareth had hown himself indubitably a prophet alike by his deed and his words, and that they had hoped that he might have proved to be the Messiah, the Redeemer of Israel. This hope had been completely shat- tered by the death of Jesus. kiown stranger, however, opens the Scriptures to them, expressing aston- ishment that they had read the Old Testament without perceiving the principle clearly laid down there that the Messiah must center his glory through the gate of suffering, vs. 25- 27. The Christians, after the teach- ing of Paul had been spread through the Church, began wo glory in the Cross of Christ and to boast of it, but to the Church before Paul's day, it seems, the terrible death of Jesus was a great stumbling-block, something that must be explained or explained away, not an event in which Chris- tians could rejoice.

In their | arguments with the Jews the Chris- tians largely based themselves upon their interpretation of the Old Testa- { ment. V. 28. The exact site of Emmaus 18 | uncertain, but it seems to have been only some four miles from Jerusalem. II. THE BREAKING OF BREAD, 24: 30-35. It is recognized that in the four Gospel: and in Paul (1 Cor, 15 4ff) we get divergent accounts of the res- urrection appearances o' Jesus which | it is very difficult or impossible com- | } letely to harmonize. Luke alone 'ells | the story of the appearance to the | disciples at Emmaus. The fact that it is difficult to fit this story in with | others is not a sufficient reason for doubting it, but it is best to take the story as representing and typifying the sacramental experience of the early Church. Jesus was recognized | in the breaking of the bread. It seems i that, though he was the guest, he took | the place of the host, and as he blest the bread, perhaps in the old familiar | way, they recognized him. The lan- | guage of v. 80, "he took . . and blest ... and brake , . and gave" seems fo | be clearly sacramental language. We cannot by any means avoid all the | difficulties of the story, mor 'can all | our questions be answered, but we can i ¢sy with much confidence tha the | story represents, not only the use the Christ'ans mad= of the Old Testa- meat n their thought and preaching, hut their rea'ization of the living | presence of Jesus with them when | they gathered for "the breaking of { pread." If we are able to take the | story in this way, it brings it very | vear to the evperience of countless | Christians throughout the centuries whose hearts have burned within them as they searched the Scriptures and { who, at the table where Jesus is the host, have realized his presence nd is resurrection from the dead. III, APPEARANCES IN JERUSALEM, 24: 36-40. The disciples return to Jerusalem and find the rest of the followers of | Jesus gathered together and already convinced of the Resurrection because the Lord has appeared to Peter, v. 34. This implies that the first appearance of the Lord was to Peter, as Paul states, 1 Cor. 1: . , One of our great puzzles is the ques! ion why our first The tn-}~ must turn to the Gospel of John, chap. 21, where the scene is laid in Galilee. As the Resurrection is being dis- cussed, Jesus himself appears in the nidst of the disciples, and they are terrified, thinking that théy are see- ing a ghost, v. 37. It is not very rofitable. to discuss how the esus could have had "flesh and bones," for the point is simply that Jesus reassures them that it is him- self in very truth, and not a ghost. Again, the Resurrection of Jesus is something very much more than the resuscitation of a dead body as in the story of Lazarus, Jesus was reither a ghost, nor had he come back to life again like Lazarus, But warm, sweet, tender, even yet A present help is he; And faith hath still its Olivet And love its Galilee. The spiritual significance of the Resurrection is often lost in endless and inconclusive discussions as to the nature of his risen body. First and last the Resurrection was a great gpivisnal experience to all who saw im.

When the last cemsus of agricul tural production was taken, Mr. Adamson said, it was shown that the value of milk and dairy produce in Scotland had risen from a total of $22,600,000 in 1908 to $44,500,000 in 1925. This, after making full allow- ance for increase in prices, showed considerable progress. The value of dairy produce ranked second only to that of livestock in the agricultural produce of Scotland. "I Mr. Adamson pointed out that 51 per cent. of Scotland's dairy cows were situated in the western and southwestern counties, and that 59 per cent. of the total supply of milk came from that area. <4 The Hannah Institute was planned in accordance with a proposal to the Department of Agriculture of Auchen- crieve estate by John M. Hannah of Girvan Mains, Girvan, Ayrshire, one of the leading growers of early pota- toes on the Ayrshire coast. m----r-- Hudson Bay Port Opening in 1932 Ottawa--The official opening of the Port of Churchill on Hudson Bay will not take place until 1932. This was stated in the House of Commons re- cently by Hon. R. J. Manion, Minister of Railways and Canals during con- tinued discussion, in committee of sup- | ply, of an item amounting to $6,000,000 | for the Hudson Bay Railway and terminal construction. The item, | which' was under consideration for | soe hours, was passed by the com- mittee. Dr. Manion informed the committee about all that could be done this year would be to have some shipments out of Churchill. These were regarded as important, and the department was de- voting its energies to getting.the port into condition. ft wo Dominion Grants License To Windsor Radio Station Ottawa. -- Because an ethereal "curtain" cuts Windsor off from the Toronto and other Canadian radio stations, " the first ~ broadcasting license to be issued in two years or more has been granted to a Windsor syndicate, Hon.

Secretary of State for Scotland, when | 147,686 Canadians Receive Pensions' Northwest Rebellion Accounts | For Sixty-eight Ottawa, --Out of an estimated. popul- ation of 9,934,500 during the year 1930 in Canada, 147,686 persons were receiving pensions of one kind or an- other. The total amount paid out in pensions during 1930° was $56; 757,209. This information was tabl- ed in the House of Commons re cently in a return requested by Hon. Ian Mackenzie (Lib, Vancouver Cen- tre). The estimate of population was made by the Bureau of Statistics for June 1, 1930. The return reveals that 68 persons fn 1930 were receiving pensions amounting to $24,756, arising out of the Northwest Rebellion, European was pensioners totalled 86,345 and the amount they received came to $44, 234,232. In addition to this 2,229 veterans were in receipt of allow- ances totalling $318,029. Pensions arising out of militia service num- bered 1,093 and the amount received was $865,176. One person was in receipt of a pension arising out of ' civil flying of $346. Information supplied by the De- partment of Labor indicated 57,950 ware in receipt of old age pensions amounting to $11,314,670 during 1930. . .

M. Kindle, chiet of the divi sion of paleontology of the Geological Survey, who attended the Royal So clety of Canada's fiftieth annual meets ing here, described this largest foot- mark of a huge reptile as two and a half feet long and one and a half feet wide. Untouched by Time Probably about 40,000,000 years ago, with other specimens of this race of giants, this tremendous animal walked along the sand trail of this ancient river or inland sea, which covered most of even Northern Canada in those days and was bordered by a tropic swamp. Ooze and vegetable matter may have filled in the foot- marks he left and the centuries piled on centuries changed tho sand into. sandstone. Millions of years had passed in the meantime and still the dinosaur's track was there to help mam reconstruct his likeness as he must have looked when man had not even begun to evolve into his final shape on the earth. "We are going to have a cement replica cast of this track," said Dr. Kindle, "and are going to put it out under the martin's house at the mu- seum in Ottawa for a bird bath. So you will soon see the birds bathing in this footmark made by a dinosaur probably 40,000,000 years ago." Dr. Kindle described the discovery. "We have found in the Peace River canyon practically the first lot of tracks that has ever been collected," he explained. "Formerly we found a few in the Red Deer river valley in Alberta, but up in the Peace River canyon, where we have never found specimens of dinosaur bones as Wwe have at Red Deer, we have uncovered a long runway the dinosaurs. They seem to have followed this track as straight as if it had been chalked off on the lake shore. "There must have been a dozen or more of the reptiles, from the foot- marks they have left. Most of them, we believe, represent species so far never described. Explains Theory "We can be just as certain of this as it we were followin, the tracks of, say, a dog, a cat and a raccoon on the wet sand on a beach," Dr. Kindle explained. Dr. Kindle has a reasonable theory to explain the fact that dinosaur tracks are rarely found where the skeletons are*discovered in the rocks. "I think the bodies were washed down -the rivers in flood time," said Dr. Kindle, "If you have ever watched one of these great northern rivers such as the Norman or the MacKenzie in flood sweeping thousands of trees along in its rush, you can understand what I mean. The dinosaurs probably died hundreds of miles away from where their bones were found. They were carried down the flood until they struck sandbanks in the rivers and there they were buried. It was just as if they had been hermetically sealed. And there they stayed for millions of years, the sand having turned into sandstone a"ound their bones." Not yet have any dinosaur eggs been found in €ahada, Dr. Kindle stated. "The same reason probably applies to that as to the fact that you don't find the footmarks where the bones are discovered. The dinosaurs lived and bred far from the region where their bones are now imbedded in the sandstone rock. The same con- ditions do not apply in Canada as in Asia, where the dinosaur eggs were found by the Roy Chapman Andrews expedition in Mongolia. There the dinosaurs apparently died close to the region where they lived and the con- ditions were favorable to preserving the eggs as well as the bones." fs ; Gardener's Creed I, who have loved the earth so much, shall have no fear at last 'shelter me from every cruel blast; My bed will be wrapped so sweetly round by the tender, teeming mold Which quickens anew the winged \ seeds of the primrose and niari- gold. 1, who have loved the yearly spring of budding leat and stem, Shall lay me down with no sad re. gret, nor wish a requiem: Knowing my hands, that delved in the « death's repose May give white grace to a lily's cup, or fragrance to a rose.
