My particular form of rheumatism seemed to take the use out of my hands and knees. The latter would suddenly give way and let me down unless a chair or table were handy. All at once, I determin- ed to give Kruschen Salts a trial--a bona fide trial--and now I feel a re- created being. I can scarcely believe that so short a time ago I was hobbl- hg along with a stick.,"--(Mrs.) M. Kruschen is effective against rheu- matism becanse its six salts stimu- late the liver and kidneys to regular action. When these organs are work- ing efficiently, they rid the body of excess uric acid. And when uric acid goes, those aches and pains go, too. Perils of Highway If six persons were ratally Injured and fourteen badly hurt in a railway collision, would there not be a con- siderable rumpus raised? Yet the six who were killed in the Olio highway collision when a bus, trying to pass a parked freight truck, ran head-on Into another truck are just ns dead ag it they had been killed !n a railroad smash-up, To the perils of the road have been added the perils of the big freighters, Huge bulks, carriers of heavy ton- nage, they loom ahead of the driver who approaches from the rear with such enormous size that he has no way of seeing the road uhead. This is particularly true when a highway freight train is parked al the side of the road, In that fatal wreck at El- yria, Ohio, the driver of the bus sought to pass the parked freighter, which was his right; hut he could not see far enough ahead to decide whether the road was clear, and when he could see; he had not enough time to cut in ahead of the parked machine and resume his own lane. - This situation calls for regulation. Clearly there is responsibility some- where for the death of six persons. Highway fatalities already are so high as to make the public road one of the most unsafe places in the world. Sooner or later, the whole question will have to be threshed cut. If it appears imperative that freight be moved by motor vehicles, some sort of private. right of way, or toll road should be provided. The public has some right on its own highway which private interests are bound to respect. --Schenectady Union-Star, Three Monuments For Three| Rivers Three Rivers--Three monuments will be unveiled here during the tercentenary celebration this sum- mer, it was announced recently. The first monument will be in memory .of Sieur de Laviolette foun- der of the city of Three Rivers. De La Verendrye, celebrated explorer who discovered the Rock 'Mountains, will also be honored with a monu- ment in his name. The third monu- ment will perpetuate the memory of Benjamin Sulte, noted historian. It the birth rate continues to fall it is estimated that the population ot England and Wales will reach its peak in 1937. TRAVEL IMPRESSIONS * v v AN OCEAN TRIP A voyage overseas is still a great adventure; it may be--and often is --the realization of the ambition of a lifetime, Fortunate indeed is the person whose dreams come true. Sometimes there are months of preparation and planning: just as often decisions are quickly made and, before one is aware of it almost, sai- ling day arrives and the journey ab- road commences. The Port On arrival at the place of embar- kation, the huge shed beside the ship provides a scene of bustle and activ- ity. On the dock, near the gangway is the booth where tickets re sur- rendered, your name is checked with the passenger list--then you walk up tho sloping gang way and your feet tread the boards of your temporary home for the next few days. A stew- ard meets you in the square and yon are escorted to your room. But one cannot stay there; there is too much to see on deck, passengers arriving, farewells 'and greetings being exch- anged between those on deck and in shore, luggage being lifted cn beard and perhaps, in the bow, a car susp- ended on high before being lowered into the hold. - Suddenly there is the sound of a bugle and visitors are warned to go ashore; the orchestra plays on the deck, there is an air of tense excite- ment and the deckhands take their places in preparation for hauling in the immense gangway. Just at chis time bell boys, come around with bas- kets full 'of rolls of brightly coloured paper ribbon. These are taken by the passengers who, holding one end of the roll, throw the string ashore and very soon the side of the ship is gay with multi-coloured strands stretch- ing from ship to shore. While this is going on, the tugs, that will draw the ship away from the pier, have quietly tied themsel- ves alongside. The siren blows, there are last farewells-and slowly but sur- ely the space between ship and the shore grows wider and wider until it is able to dispense with the asslist- ance of the tugs and proceed under her own power. : The River This imaginary trip is leaving the port of Montreal; in many -vays. it is more attractive than the port of New York as thc beautiful St. Law- rence River provides something of in- terest for nearly two days before we strike the open sea. i - The shore on both sides nr the St. Lawrence, is dotted with French Ca- nadian farmhouses. A lovely rural district, reminding one, in muny res- pects, of Ireland with its small green farms, laid out in long strips from the shore, its white-washed houses and the villages dominated by the truction. In the past all the regula- large church which serves the whole community. . . On the river itself, we pass the oc- casional tramp steamer or another ocean liner, majestically making its way to Montreal, under the tempor- ary command of one of the river pi- lots. Passing Three Rivers we get a glimpse of the city and the great piles of pulpwood which feeds the paper mills for which the place is 3 BERMUDA AND WEST INDIES CRUISES ~ .

Fin- ally it was finished and opened by the Prince of Wales in 1919. The total length of the structure is 3240 feet, the height of the steelwerk above high water, 150 feet and the estimat. ed cost 15 million dollass--these are but a few of the figures. As we pass under the bridge and look toward the towering masts of the ship, it-seems-an-imvessible feat to avoid striking the masts, Some wags even go so far as to assure nervous passengers that t'ije masts ave collapsible. On we go and, even to the most experienced the illusion, that the mast will strike the bridge, is always interesting. From every ventage point passengers watch the approach and, in spite of their faith in the success. ful passage, they breathe a sigh of re- liet when, serenely and majestically the tall masts pass under the immense lacework of steel, The Gibraltar" of the New World "On our outward journey, we do not put into the dock at Quebec, but lle out in the stream until the tenders bring passengers, mail and goods. Du. ring this wait we have an apportunity to.see, on the heights, the second greatest natural fortress !n the world, the magnificent Chateau Frontenac and a wonderful panoramic view of both the old and new town Quebec was founded by Samuel de Champlain in 1608 and fe, therefore, entitled to its name "The Ancient CI- ty."

Bigger Than Self Fish eat beetle larvae, and the beetles themselves, but apparently the rule, sometimes works the other way, too, if the fish in pond or stream are small and the larvae are big, That means one more to be ad- ded definitely to the perils which en- compass the fish in their baby days, and it is probable that the beetles take quite 2 toll. There had been sus- picion of the beetles before but an incident at Banff, Alberta, last sum- mer confirmed suspicion. The superintendent of the fish hatchery operated at Banff by the Dominion Department of Fisheries was watching baby trout in a large hatchery pond when, lo and behold, saw a two-and-a-quarter-inch larva of the diving beetle Dytiscus, dart along in the water with a fin- gerling longer than itself held firmly in its mandibles! That happened to be the only case actually observed in which fry or fingerlings were cap- tured by the beetles but there is rea- son to believe that there were numer- ous other instances in which the little fish were destroyed. Nature played a bad trick un the Banff staff in putting the beetle lar- vae into the pond, which is one in which certain 'experiments in the feeding of young trout have been in progress. 'Every precaution is taken to keep such ponds free of anything that would be injurious to the young fish but this particula®® pond at Banff, formed by flooding a slough, is especially hard to protect and Na- ture eluded viligance and slipped the larvae in.

Box 1380, Montreal "Accident Addicts" | Cause The Trouble Walter V, Bingham, In N.Y. Times The vast majority of drivers rarely, it ever, have accidents. A study was made of the complete records of 5,000 men to see how many good, medium and bad drivers there were. No less | than 63 per cent. of these motorists , camo through a period of five years without any accidents at ali. Another 24 per cent. had but one each. Now a man who can drive a car for five years under ail kinds of conditions without having a report- able accident is certainly entitled to be classed as A No. 1. iven if he does have a single ac- cident, he Is stil] quite properly ree- ognized ag a "good" driver. So, if we regard the 63 per cent. who had no accidents in five years as A-1 and the drivers who had onlv one acci- dent as good, we have no less than 87 per cent, who are good operators. Bad Drivers So much on the right <ide of the ledger. What Is on {le opposite page? If most drivers are good -dri- vers, why all the accidents? Why is it apparently inevitable that 30,000 of us will be killed and a million more injured in automobile accidents dur- ing this year of grace 1934 and dur- ing each year thereafter? It is be- cause about 13 per cent. of the dri- vers are accident addicts. These dri- vers have accidents, not last year on- ly, not this year only, but almost every year. They will keep on hav- driving improves, or they are taken off the road, or they kill themselves. "Unless their driving improves!" It has been demonstrated that most of these accldent = addicts---the '*'un- lucky" 13 per cent.--can be cured of their unsafe ways. It is not necessary permanently to refuse them the right to drive, It is necessary to organize the oversight, re-education and follow- up of this small but dangerous min- ority. ol Habltual The habits, characteristics and per- sistency of these accldant addicts have.been studied, It has been shown that they cdn be readily {dentified, isolated and cured before they have proceeded far In their course of des. tiong, administrative control and pub- lic safety education have not sufficed because the importance of this prim- ary fact has not been fully grasped. Instead, an enormous expenditure of money and effort has been levished on .the good drivers, That operators are quile consistent in thelr good or bad driving is shown by a study in which records in a mo- tor-vehicle bureau were related to Insurance company recoils, It is pos sible from a man's past record to cal. culate his expectation of accidents in tho future. Thus if a driver has had a clear record for the last four years the probability that he will get into trouble this year is very small; but if he hag had four or more accidents within the last four years the chances that he will be involved in at least ono accident this year arte three to one, Until administrative officers of states and communities wake up to the presence of these accfuent ad- dicts, identify them, and take appro- priate actlon with them, we must ex- pect deaths and injuries in undimin- Ished numbers, "Noah was a great navigator."

Dr. Alexander Sinela'r, Sault Ste. Marie, told the Ontario 4 ical Associati mn recently. Reading a paper on goitre preven- tion Dr. Sinclair stressed the need of remedies for thyroid dicease in ord- er to prevent human suffering in the province. The thyroid gland produc- es thyroxin an active principle of which is a staple compound of iodine, essential for mental and phsical dev- elopment. Iodine is especially neces- sary required for foetal life, during the age of adolescence and by the pre- gnant mother, he said. A diseased th- yroid will 'interfere with the proper supply of iodine. and abnormal cond- ditions will result. -- Extreme varieties of goitre, and diseases like tuberculosis and syphilis are associated with or are the out- como of simple goitre, Dr, Sinclair continued Besides these conditions many physical and mental conditions result from simple goitre. These are evidenced in cretins, (dwarfs) deaf- mutes, mental and physical ddticienc- ies and subnormal and backward chil- dren and the insane, Simple goitre could be practically eliminated, however, Dr. Sinclair bel- ieved, by providing for its control during the vital periods of foetal life, pregnancy, and around the age of pu- berty. At these times prevention should be the task of the individual physician, he said, but added that pre- cence should be a public health mea- sure.
