What Atlantis Was Really Like a $. 7s The story of "Lost Atlantis," appeal- ing as i 'it does so strongly to the imagi- nation, will always have a fascinating interest. To most people, however, it is but aname. They cannot tell you where the vanished continent is supposed to have been or what-is the origin of the | tradition in regard to it. Much less do they realize that geologists to-day _are of opinion that,there actually was an Atlantis and that the tale is Y myth. . The Greeks and Phoenicians wrote about it as of a continent that had dis- appeared not--very long before the earliest of those writers were born. There is even good reason for believ- 'ing that the trading ships of the Phoe: nicians maintained a traffic with the seaports of Atlantis in centuries ante- dating the dawn of history. One showld realize that history, meaning by that term the written story of peoples, does not go back very far. ' ples of the Mediterranean region does not go back further than 3,000 years before the birth of Christ. Hence it is conceivable that Atlantis, concern- ing which we have only tradition, which is mouth-to-mouth history, may have existed no longer ago than 60Q0 or 7000 B.C. Geologists say that there was such The earliest history of the peo- .\ a oun titieet as that described, and that Phoenician and Greek voyagers might easily have reached it. inasmuch as it occupied a large part of the present oceanic area between northern Africa and the Caribbean. Nobody can even guess now broad it | was, but it was about 1000 miles long | from north to south. It was, very Jnountainous and on its western slopes were many large rivers. When Atlantis sank beneath the sea it did not wholly disappear. Smail patches of it still remain above: the surface of the ocean, two of these be- ing the island of Jamaica and the Bar- bados, : As continents go, Atiantis was never very old, It rose out of the ocean not more than 3,000,000 or possibly 4,000,- 000 years ago, a fact made manifest by the circumstance that the soil of Ja- maica is largely composed of stuff which, ds shown by the fossils it con- tains, was ooze of the sea bottom in Tertiary times. Phoenician tradition ascribed to the people of Atlantis a high civilization. During the last few years scientific ex- peditions, in pursuit of natural history "specimens," have made explorations of the sea bottom in that region. How interesting it would be if their drag- nets brought up from the depths some vancient relics from drowned towns of the lost continent. AFGHANS. AGAIN MAKING MISCHIEF "gust FOR THE SAKE OF FIGHT- ING, THEIR FAVORITE*SPORT. Afghanistan, a Despotic Monarchy, is \ Well Supplied With Weapons of Most Modern Type. About three times in a century the Arghans "bust loose," and the British have real trouble on their hands. _ Just why they should have chosen this time to declare a "holy war" no- body seems to know. They do not ap- pear to have any particular grievance, but fighting is their favorite outdoor sport; .the new Ameer, Aman-Ullah Khah, nurses a grouch against the Bri- tish and the fanatical mullahs have been busy stirring up the people. Hitherto, in Afghan wars, the Bri- tish have been opposed by an enemy inadequately equipped with modern weapons. To-day it is different. Dur- ing the last few years up-to-date munition factories have been -estab- lished at Kabul, and the Afghans have learned how to manufacture first-chass rifles, as well as rifled cannon, cart- ridges, shells, gunpowder, etc. Also they have Hotchkiss and Maxim guns, as well as light machine guns. Railroad Building Forbidden by Govt. Afghanistan is a star of valleys radiating from the peaks of Koh-i-Ba- ba, and the whole country is ruggedly mountainous. Military operations are rendered additionally difficult by the circumstance that there are no rail- roads. Building of the latter has been forbidden by the Afghan Government lest they facilitate invasion. As a precautionary measure, the Bri- tish have built a railroad up the valley of the Kabul river and at Chaman, the terminus, close by the Afghan border, they long ago stored great quantities of rails and other material, the idea being in case of hostilities to extend the line as rapidly as possible to Ka- bul. The British want no trouble with the Afghans; all they desire is peace. To keep them quiet they have for - many years paid the Ameer an annual, subsidy of $600,000. But those war- like people, though invariably whip- ped, are not content to stay so. They hate white folks and, being earnestly pious Mohammedans, they feel that if they could murder the last Christian on earth they might be happy. Claim Descent From the Lost Tribes. The Afghans claim descent from the Lost Tribes of Israel, and trace their lineage through Solomon and David back to Moses and Abraham. In truth many of them have Jewish features and ancient Jewish names. The men , are bearded, fierce looking and com- monly clad in bloomers and loose shirts of white cotton, with turban or skull cap. The women wear trousers, and some of them are costumed like ghosts, in white gowns that fall from the top of the head, with eye holes. Afghanistan is the only independent kingdom of central Asia. It is a des- potic monarchy. One of its two prin- cipal cities, Herat (Kabul, the capital, being the other) is one of the greatest trading centres of the East. Both are electrically lighted, and within the last few years many modern manufac- turing~ industries have reached im- portant development. The bulk of the population, however, dwells in primi- tive mud villages with loopholed walls and high mud watchtowers. If the construction of a_ railroad across 450 miles of Afghan territory were made cwareens permissible there would be through traffic all the way from Paris to Calcutta, Late Hours For Children Retard De- velopment. One wonders what on earth the small children who are practically al- lowed to stay up half the night will be like when they grow up. The up- to-date child stands no nonsense from his parents, and goes to bed when he likes. Thé fact that friends are ex- pected seems to be a special reason why he must be present to entertain them. A brain specialist who was din- ing at the home of a friend recently said to his hostess: 'Those children's brains will never develop unless you send them to bed at a proper hour. And, worse still, your little girls will lose their looks." <ueeTs 3 Blinks at the Blimp. Augustus Tolliver, the Yankee soap king, strode wrathfully out of his state- arm of the porter. "Tdiot!"" he roared, 'why didn't you give me a call this morning? I told you I had to be in London for a direc- tors' meeting at 9 a.m. sharp, and now London is Lord knows how many miles in our rear." "Ah pounded on yo' door, boss, but yo' refuses to waken," replied the por- ter. The soap king pulled out a watch. "Eleven-thirty," he grunted disgust- edly. "Where are we now?" "Jest passed over St. Louis, boss: we'll be back in N'Yawk at 12.05." "Oh, well," said Tolliver, "I can at- tend that 12.30 meeting of the soap powder people and catch the 1.30 blimp for London."

Apart from accident or illness due to infection, almost all ill-health arises* from one or two reasons. The great mistake that people make is in not | realizing that both of these have the same cause at the root of them, name- ly poor and improper blood. Wither bloodlessness or some trouble of the nerves will be found to be the reason for almost every ailment. If you are pale, suffer from Headaches, or breath- lessness, with palpitation 'of tite heart, poor appetite and weak digestion, the cause is almost always bloodlessness. If you have nervous headaches, neur- algia, sciatica and other nerve pains, the cause is run down, exhausted nerves. But run dpwn nerves are also a result of poor blood,'so that the two chief causes of illness are one and the same. : This accounts for the great number of people, once in indifferent health, pale, nervous and dyspeptic, who have been made well and hearty by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills; for no other medicine ever discovered is so valu- able for increasing the supply of rich red blood and giving strength to worn out nerves. Men and women alike greatly benefit from a course of the splendid blood builder and nerve tonic. If your dealer does not keep these pills you can get them by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brock- ville, Ont. FEW CANADIANS WEAR MONS STAR ISSUE FOR SERVICE PRIOR TO MIDNIGHT, NOV. 22-23, 1974. --_-- Original No. 2 Can, Stat. Hospital Said to Be Only Canadians Entitled-- 1914-15 Star For Others. Don't for a moment run away with the idea that every ribbon shaded red, white and blue worn by veterans of the C.E.F., represents the Mons Star for 1914 service at the front. There is very little difference in the ribbon of a Mons Star and the ribbon of a '41914-15 Star, just a reversal of the colorings, but there is considerable difference in what they stand for. There has been an erroneous im- pression abroad that the P.P.C.L.I. were entitled to wear the 'Mons" Star. Such is not the case. The ex- piration for the eligible period entit- led a soldier to wear this ribbon is midnight, Nov. 22-23, 1914.. The form- er regiment did not arrive in France until the closing days of December, the same year.. They were, however, the first combatant unit of the Canadian force to cross the Channel, and saw considerable service before the com- ing of the ist_Division, in February, 1915. This decoration is awarded by the Imperial militia, while the 1914-15 Star is a Canadian issue. Very Few Are Entitled. Original members of No. 2 Cana- dian Stationary Hospital, on the strength of the establishment and at- tached, who left with that unit for France in November, 1914, are said to be the only Canadians in the C.E.F. who are entitled to wear the "1914" Star, familiarly known as the "Mons" Star. This unit landed in France on Nov 8, 1914, under command of Lieut.-Col. (Dr.) A. T. Shillington, of Ottawa, a well-known medical man in Dominion professional circles Serving with the hospital were two Toronto doctors, Lieut.-Col. Reginald Pentecost and Lieut.-Col. Jas. H. Wood, both then captains. The subsequent Army Gouneil Order No. XX., published in December, 1918, authorizes the 'wearing of what is known as the "1914-15" Star. By this order the period was extended to Dec. $1, 1915. The star to be struck is identical in design with the original "1914 Mons" Star, except that it bears ) the dual date. Both the Ist and 2nd Canadian Divisions are entitled to wear the '1914-1915" Star. The orig- inal Star (1914 only) is alone to service in France. The 1914- 15 Star is given for service in any theatre of war, including Sdloniki, Mesopotamia and the Far East. Both include all ranks on the strength of a unit or attached to an establishment, as well as voluntary aid detachments, voluntary Red Cross ambulance drivers, or civiliats serving with the army in any capacity and under the direction of the War Office, while en- gaged upon war duties. The original strength of No. 2 Cana- ranks, including nine officers, 35 nurs- ing sisters attached, and 102 other ranks. Four of the original nursing sisters of the unit went down on the hcspital ship Llandovery Castle, when torpedoed on June 27, 1918. They were Miss Margaret Fraser (acting matron), daughter of the late Lieut.- of Nova Scotia; Miss Rena Mclean, daughter of Sena- tor John McLean, of Prince Edward Island; Miss M. Sampson, of Hamil- ton, Duntroon, Ont.; and Miss Alexi- na Dussualt, of Montreal.

Occasionally Dame Nature 'Takes Re- Venge For Man's Interference. "As a rule, Nature can and does take good care of herself, but she can be helped, as agriculture shows. Left to themselves, the thousands of varieties of pigegn will all go back to the common blue kind, all apples to | the crab, all plums 'to the sloe, and so on. She can also be helped to good effect by importation. The apple is a stranger in Tasmania, yet there it flourishes best; the fuchsia is a stranger in the British Isles, yet in Manxland they make hedges of it. But these things need to be done with care. Occasionally Nature hits back hard, es in the case of the rabbit plague 'in Australia, which has cost the Island Continent millions just to keep it in limits; or, as in the case of the spar- row in America, which has-ousted,.by its pugnacity, many birds far more desirable. -- But perhaps the funniest case of this kind occurred in Bermuda. The island was free from reptiles ofeall kinds, but its: insects were, and still are, many and various and ferocious.

'* eThe climate suited Mister Toad to perfection, and he speedily spread everywhere, until he became a nuis- ance and plague like unto a plague of Egypt!

Is the famous old song, "Robin Adair," which we have sung from childhood, Scotch or Irish? Scottish, undoubtedly, will be the general reply. Yet authentic history seems to point otherwise. Hanging in the great hallway of the present mansion of Sir Robert Hod- son, at Hollybrook, Kilbride Co., Wick- low, where Robin lived, played, and sang verses, is his harp, while, attach- ed to a small building nearby, is a brass plate bearing the inscription: Here Robin sat and sang, and quaffed the bowl. Degenerate days! ancient line! How science bids ascending waters rou, And fountains gush, flowed genial wine. Robin, according to the latest re- searches, was a successful wine mer- chant in Dublin, with, however, Scot- tish ancestral conngctions. Hence the confusion. He it was who built Holly- brook, where he entertained lavishly, the original song of "Robin Adair," which goes back to the year 1730, be- ing written to commemorate a visit he paid to some sporting friends at Pucks- town, near Artane Co., Dublin, com- mencing: "You're welcome Robin Adair." Robin, in spite of his convival habits, lived to a green old age, and ultimately died in Dublin in 1737. In addition to his harp, two of his wine glasses, which held a quart of wine each, are still preserved.

In other rooms we see hecatombs of birds of the most brilliant plumage, imported from almost every country under the sun. There are huge boxes of bright red and black tanageres from Brazil; blue finches and bronze ducks from New Guinea; birds of Paradise in a score of gorgeous varieties, some worth as much as 60 guineas each; blue chatterers, peacocks and parrots, and ostrich feathers of hues ranging from black to pure white. There are thousands of egrets and ospreys from Brazil, China, India and South Ameri- ca, worth almost their weight in gold. Other spacious and pillared rooms are crowded with the most costly and | beautiful porcelain--miracles of the | potter's art in all the glory of rich and ' exquisitely blended coloring. Here, too, are vases and bowls of beaten brass, Egyptian and Persian coffee pots, Japanesé pictures, ancient MSS. products of the East, many of them worth a small fortune. oes semanas SUFFERING CATS! GIVE THIS MAN THE GOLD MEDAL Let, folks step on your feet hereafter; wear shoes a size smaller if you like, for corns will never again send electric sparks of pain through you, according to this Cincinnati authority. He says that a few drops of a drug called freezone, applied directly upon a tender, aching corn, instantly re- lieves soreness, and soon the entire corn, root and all, lifts right out. This drug is a sticky ether com- pound, but dries at once and simply shriveis up the corn without inflaming or even irritating the surrounding tissue. It is claimed that a quarter of an ounce of freezone obtained at any drug store will cost very little but is suffi- cient to remove every hard or soft corn or callus from one's feet.

The warders, known as "beef eaters,' probably because they once were fed on rations of meat, form one of the curiosities of the Tower of London for visitors. They wear Tudor costumes, and, like the Swiss bodyguard of the Pope, they keep their ancient cos- tumes, undisturbed by currents of modern fashion. Just before midnight the head war- der and the porter, carrying a bunch of huge keys, go to the guard-room, summon "the escort of the keys," made up of "beef eaters," and then proceed ceremoniously to lock the great outer gate. The password is given formally to sentries as the pro- cession passes, and in conclusion the detail salutes the keys as the porter cries, "God preserve the King." Every three months the reigning king 'Or queen sends the password of the tower to the constable, signed and sealed, and the mayor of London is the only other outside person supposed to know it. This custom is a relic of the time when the tower was primarily a fort- ress. re A Reuter telegram from Kingston (Jamaica) states that statistics fur- nished by fruit companies show that an extraordinary crop of bananas is expected. It is believed the crop will amount to 10,000,000 stems this year, which is four times as much as last year.
