It seems easy, and it . as the merit of doing away with both drugs and doctors‘ bills. ‘ but ‘_the melancholy thought ob-‘ trudes that the average man has mo stomach for such a diet.

Thesel oppressive reflections drive us into | the arms of that other authorityl‘ who went into ecstasies over the’: virtues of fried pork. The real auâ€" thority, after all, is the authority I] who lets you have what you like. t As a cure for that dread disease neurasthenia he prescribes from ‘ his personal experience as follows : Q a week eat nothing but fruitâ€" Tanges, grape fruif, and any of the good fruits that can now be found in the markets. Drink before eatâ€" ing in the morning a couple of glasses of hot water with the juice of half a lemonein each. During the day drink at least six or eight glasses of pure water. After the week wholly devoted to fruit add a slice or two of whole wheat bread. Later add vegetables, lettuce and tomatoes, but never any meat, cofâ€" fiae, tea or alcohol. Eat moderateâ€". y and take no solid food until the. middle of the day. \ You will not get to heaven any quicker by provoking your neighâ€" bors to wishing you were there. Health is the most interesting of (a’fl"themes, and we are glad to borâ€" row from the‘literature of the subâ€" ject from time to time for the eduâ€" cation of our readers. This time it is another knock at drugs by one who writes to an eastern newsâ€" paper. He declares not only that drugs are futile but that diet is the secret of health. In some mey spects he agrees with Dr. Woods Hutchinson, but he has no use for BMeats. \ | es This, ib is argued, is the nrore fitting since we all owe ‘"conscience money‘‘ to Dickens, who lived and wrote at a time when the copyright Q)"‘/la,w afforded little protection and international copyright had practiâ€" cally no existence. His material reward, therefore, was meager, measured by our Standards, and is inability to insure the independâ€" ‘)ce and comfort of his children was the result of that defect in the laws. Now, as millions of copies ‘of Dickens‘ works are in use and @xirculation, the printing of a speciâ€" al centenary stamp and the purâ€" «chase and affixing of it to each exâ€" tant volume would yield a hand: ‘some amount, even if the stamp a were sold at 1 penny, and this amount could be handed over to the Dickens family. ‘ Many eminent men have indorsed the scheme, although â€" objections thereto are not slow in appearing. What of other victims of past inâ€" iistice in legislation? it is asked. “'xat of the descendants of the great poets, dramatists and noveâ€" lists who did not even enjoy popuâ€" larity during their lifetime? â€" But such questions are academic rather than practical. The Dickens meâ€" morial stamp plan, should it be adopted, would have every chance of reasonable success, for admirers of Dickens would be glad to give. expression to their gratitude and appreciation and utterly indisposed to quibble or split "logical‘""‘ hairs. _ Children and, grandchildren of Charles Dickens, the great humorâ€" ist and humanist, are struggling with poverty, and the British govâ€" ernment has bad to provide penâ€" sions for a few of them. Next wyecar the Englishâ€"speaking world will observe the centenary of Dickâ€" ens‘ birth, and already appropriâ€" ate methods of celebration are unâ€" der discussion. It has naturally _ occurred to some that no more adâ€" mirable and sincere testimonial to the loved author could be suggestâ€" €ed than an indirect but generous ; gift to his surviving descendants. { NOTES AND COMMENTS 6. They made light ‘of it â€"â€" The tragedy of human life is, that it can become so absorbed in the farm and merchandise as to become unâ€" concerned with matters of hicher All things are readyâ€"There is no human need for which God has not made rick and fitting provision. i 4. ~Other _ servantsâ€"‘Ihe â€" first group (3), possibly representing the prophets, simply summoned those who were already invited. These later servants are, perhaps, the apostles. The patience and generâ€" osity of the king are in keeping with the character of God as reâ€" vealed in his dealings with Israel. Until men have finally and deliberâ€" ately spurned his favors, he conâ€" tinues to seek them out, saying,. Come: & f 8. Them that were bidden_â€"The Jews would not come to the feast, even though participation in its generous bounty was the sum of all good. This is the amazing feature of the parable, that men should reâ€" fuse what God has graciously done for their highest we _â€"being. T .cro is a climax in their refusal. Hirst, they are unwilling; then, they treat the invitation disdainfully ; finally, some stoop to abuse and murder. ’ Verse 1. Jesus answeredâ€"His reâ€" sponse to their attempt to lay hold on him was to give the third of the parables on judgment. 2. A certain kingâ€"God. Other passages may be compared with profit (Maté. 8. 11; 25. 10; 2. Cor. 11. 27 Reyv. 19. 7;21/2). The marâ€" riage feast was the most importâ€" ant social event in the life of a family, and where wealth permitâ€" ted was a most elaborate affair. According to New Testament symâ€" bolism, this would be the marriage of Christ and the church, though the bride is not mentioned, and the son is introduced apparently only to emphasize the lavish splenâ€" dor of the feast. \ Lesson XI. The King‘s Marriage Feast, Matt. 22. 1â€"14. Golden Text, Matt. 22. 14. THE SUNDAY SCHOOL Faith creates the unwillingness to be satisfied with things as they are, to let life rest with its past attainments and development, acâ€" companied with the peace and conâ€" fidence that comes from the clear assurance that in every endeavor we make for better tnings and larâ€" ger life we have working with us the powers of eternity. Faith sees life as a divine proâ€" gramme of progress, as a great, be nothing more than di;scgroxzc-evnt; but underneath is soon found a great, satisfying content. To be loyal toâ€" the divine will means that with all our powers we, too, must will our better selves and our fairer days into being. Faith breeds in us a divine disâ€" content that seems at first sight to FOR BETTER THINGS. The prayer,. ‘"‘Thy. ~will be done,‘‘ must not mean that we should lie down with blind subâ€" mission under every blow of the opposition, to weakly eryy since the Almighty wills that I should be beaten back, I will stay back. { We too often think of ourselves as though we were but atoms in the dust of our social whirl, as blind factors helplessly drifting or driven wherever the winds may will. A foolish fatalism lays hold on us and we accept the dreadful mockery of a universe in which there can be neither good nor ill right nor wrong, because we have no real potent or effective wills, all is willed for us. The godless are not the only ones guilty of this human blasphemy. Many pious persons so think of the will of the most high as though it were a mighty force against which we could say and do nothing. The saddest form of blasphemy toâ€"day is not that men shall take lightly on their lips the name of the fuost high. That may be noâ€" thing at all to them ; no more than the blind following of some verbal rut, a matter of simple habit. The blasphemy that brings down on us the curse of the ages is that we take our own lives so trivially we do not enough estsem our own place in the universe, and we hold life at too low a valuation.

To be in unâ€" [seernly attire at a festive occasion of such importance was disrespect to the king. The man was speechâ€" less (12) inasmuch as there was no excuse for coming unprepared. As in the parable of the virgins, time was allowed to provide oil, so here there must have been ample opporâ€" tunity to dress properly. â€" The garment, then, refers to the char acter which a man bears, whether good or bad. To be disobedient to the King‘s will in this matter is to put oneself on the side of those who lightly or violently refused the inâ€" vitation. 11. The king came in to behold the guestsâ€"This is a scene of solemn judgment. It is not enough to have been invited and to have made formal acceptance. There still remains the inescapable seruâ€" tiny of the King. ‘The question of fitness is not finally settled by memâ€" bership in the visible church. 8. His servantsâ€"The first Chrisâ€" tian preachers, who went forth to the partings of the highways (9), where the roads from the Gentile country led into the city, and there found both bad and good (10), sigâ€" nifying that, in the matter of invitâ€" ing, there is to be no discriminaâ€" tion. 7 i.

Treated them shamefullyâ€"It is characteristic of the man who beâ€" gins by ignoring with an air: of suâ€" perior indifference the claims of reâ€" ligion that he ends by treating the messenger of religion with sullen anger. Having â€" refused God‘s grace, it hurts his pride and stirs his will into rebellion to have the invitation pressed. value The highest good is found in the way of doing good, giving what we hayg, our best selves, to. others. Let a man seek efficiency in his business, let him seek leadership in his profession, let him seek en riching some other lives. This is the myrrh that preserves to us all that we gain and perfumes all, while selfishness is the moth that breeds decay and death. To preach against selfishness must not mean to,deny the pas~‘ sionate desire for the good to be found in us all; must not mean‘ that we condemn the ambition that| seeks better things nor discourage«! a man in the endeavor to find the | best there is in life and to make| the most of himself. It means helping men to see aims higher than themselves and. a will that| seeks the good of all, the univer-' sal good. The secret of living is the discove ery of the greatest good, the things that are really worth the seeking, the values that do not fade nor depreciate. The greatest good you can do any person or people is to train them to make this discriminaâ€" tion, to help them to choose for themselves amongst the many posâ€" sible prizes the ones that. are worthy. SOME GOOD OR OTHER. .. The standards and values vary so greatly, and hence we find men striving after both shame and honor, both the base and the lofâ€" ty, because whether the thing deâ€" sired be. really good or bad, it seems good to him who seeks it. Every man is underâ€" obligation to seek out the best good, to make Hife as rich, and full, and sweet as it may be. Every life is seekâ€" ing If it be true that the religious life is that which is in harmony with the divine and universal will then it must be also in harmony with all the laws of our living, it cannot appear as something arbiâ€" trary and alien to ourselves and needing to be enforced by arguâ€" ments and threats. It will be an essential part of every harmonious life. inspiring work of overcoming difâ€" ficulties, fighting foes, removing obstacles, bringing forth new life> and in every day out of an old world of confusion and failure making a new world of order and beanty. It links our lives with the process of the ages, that which has been going on since the mornâ€" ing stars sung together the work of the creation, ever out of the dust of the old making the divinely new.

Between 1902 and the end of 1$909, the expenditure upon county roads has amounted to $2,â€" 128,122, of which the counties have paid $1,418,748, and the Province $709,374. â€" The total cost of road construction, as distinguished from the purchase of toll roads and maâ€" chinery and the building of bridges, has been $1,404,497, or an average of $1,250 for each of the 1,125 miles of good stone or gravel highway made. ‘This figure, however, does not take into account a large amount of incomplete or scattered work which would reduce the avâ€" erage. The expenditure of townâ€" ships on roads in 1908 was $1,403,â€" 211. It was disbursed in connection. with statute labor, which, if valuâ€" ed at $1.00 . per day per annum, would bring the total expenditure up to $2,545,187. j POACHKERS‘* NET SEIZED 14.

INSANE WITH JEALOUSY. SAT DEAD ON BED. STABBED AND SHOT. Attempting to The most effective covering for burns,. in the opinion of many, is adhesive plaster. This excludes all air, and the burning sensation that is usually felt for hours after one has been burned will not be noticâ€" ed at all after the plaster has been applied. One can go on with his While a burn on the surface that raises up the skmv in a blister. is not dangerous, it causes an unpleaâ€" sant sensation, and may be effecâ€" tively treated by excluding the air in the case of a more severe burn.. Anything that will keep the air from the burna may be used. Submerging the part in water has been recommended by some physioâ€" logists, but the objection to this plan is that one can do nothing else while he is attending to the burn. Another remedy is to apply common baking soda. or coat the burned place with flour and water.. |â€" The first impulse many persons thave on finding they are on fire is to run, which only fans the fire and helps to increase its fierceâ€" ness. As soon as one finds his cloâ€" thing is on fire he should lie down. Do this immediately and call for help. If one sees another person on fire he should throw him to the ground if it can be accomplished in ‘no other way.. Of course the next thing to do is to extinguish the flames. Any heavy garment, piece of carpet, or a rug may be used to smother the fire, or water may be thrown over the burning clothing. When the fire has been extinâ€". gâ€"ished cut away all burned clothâ€"l ing, taking care not to remove any that may adhere to the burned fiesh. Be careful not to break any‘ biisters, and cover the burn as quickly as possible. It is the air coming in contact with the burned | surface that causes such severe parn. Any covering that will ex-l’ clude the ai= from a burn swould Rre appitedâ€" but it it can, beâ€" ob taimed, soft wool is best. _ Pack this careful‘y around the burn, but in the meantime, see that someone has started for the nearest 1‘eliab}e| physician. 1 Many lives are lost from injuries resulting from burns, which might be saved if the person who finds his clothing on fire would rememâ€" ber several simple facts. The head, chest and abdomen are the parts where burns so often prove fatal, and should be protected from this form of imury. In the case of adults the trouble is often caused by overuse of the | voice. This form is seen in the case of what is known as "clergyman‘s ‘sore throat,‘‘ but it is not necesâ€" sary to be a clergyman to have it, and the average college student the day after a boatâ€"race may be trustâ€" ed to have acquired a fair caso of laryngitis. Sometimes the voice is only hoarse or husky, but in severe cases it may be completely gone, owing to the local thickening and congestion of the parts. The treatment of this discease is both general and local. Local apâ€" plications are first for the thorough cleansing of the affected parts. Afâ€" ter that has been accomplished, seâ€" dative and astringent remedies are applied. This treatment should alâ€" ways be given by the physician.â€" Youth‘s Companion. ‘ An attack of acute laryngitis in one predisposed to it may be brought on in various ways. Sitâ€" ting with wet feet will often do the mischief. So will inhaling dust or gas, or getting too cold, or goâ€" ing too long without food,; or, in short, doing anything or permitâ€" ting anything that serves to depress the general vitality ; for no organ of the body resents ‘any insult ofâ€" fered to the general system more thoroughly than does an irritable throat. When a child develops a tendency to attacks of laryngitis a thorough examination of the airâ€"passages should be made by a specialist in throat disorders, and in most cases some contraction or chronic inflamâ€" mation will be found, which calls for correction. The importance of this will be recognized when it is understood by parents that one atâ€" tack predisposes to others, until the unfortunate child becomes the victim of soâ€"called croup with the least exposure or indiscretion, and all the time the trouble may be caused by the mouthâ€"breathing, which keeps the throat and all the airâ€"passages in a state of irritation and delicacy. In grownâ€"up people an attack of acute laryngitis is rarely fatal, alâ€" though its symptoms, which include breathlessness, and sometimes comâ€" plete loss of voice, often give rise to much alarm. In children the passages are narrower. and they are less able to throw off the seâ€" etetions, with the result that an attack of laryngitis may become croupous in character and conseâ€" quently dangerous to life. 4 ‘nBALTH] Gsaea22a2s0000e4%080808080 LARYNGITIS.
