Spanish is rather the latest to be taken up; just as Russian was the first after the outâ€" break of the war. The Welsh people, on account of being bilingual, are the cleverest students in language and the Scotch next, according to the teachers. USE ANY HOUSEROLD RECIPE Englishmen Are Learning Polish and & Balkan Dialects. > Classes in Russian, French and Spanish are prospering in London as never before. It is recognized that Germapry‘s great gains in trade were due largely to the pains German clerks and business men took to acâ€" quire foreign _ languages, â€" Special courses in the Slav tongue, including Polish and the Balkan dialects, are now established at King‘s College, University of London. T. G. Masaryk, professor of philosophy in the Czech University of Prague and formerly a prominent politician in the Austrian Parliament, is the head of the school. Mrs. G. Morgan, Huntsville, Ont., writes:â€""I wish every mother and especially young mothers know the value of Baby‘s Own Tablets. .They baye certainly worked wonders with orr baby.

The possession of a freak memory was revealed during the course of a case of robbery tried recently at Melâ€" bourne. The prisoner declared that when the crime was committed he was in the hut of a man named _ Lane, hearing him recite Walpole‘s "Old English Baron,"‘ which occupied two hours and a half in the delivery. The jury disbelieved this statement, so Lane was called to prove that he was capable of the feat. He stepped into the witnessâ€"box and started reciting the story in a way that showed he knew it thoroughly. When he had gone on some time without a moâ€" ment‘s hesitation the judge wanted him to stop, but counsel for the deâ€" fence insisted upon proving his case by having the whole story repeated. Eventually, it was decided to admit the evidence if Lane could repeat the last page of the book. This being satisfactorily accomplished the alibi was allowed, and the prisoner receivedl his discharge. INSTRUCTION IN LANGUAGES Her Many Duties Affect Her Health and Often She Breaks Down. Completely. _ It is little wonder that there are many times in a woman‘s life when she feels in despair, There is no ‘nineâ€"hour day for the busy housewife. There are a hundred thing about the home to keep her busy from the time she arises until it is again bed time. what is the result? Often her nerves give way, her good looks suffer, her blood becomes thin, her digestion is disturbed and her system threatened with a complete breakdown. Every woman should do all possible to proâ€" tect her health and g‘oos looks, and there is one way in which she can do this, and that is by taking Dr. Wilâ€" liams‘ Pink Pills. These actually make, new, rich blood, strengthen every nerve and every organ, bring the glow of health to the cheeks and brightness to the eye. These pills have done more to make the lives of thousands of women sunshiny than anything else in the world, Mrs. Daniel Theal, Waterloo, Ont., says: "I was very much rur down, my blood was thin and watery and I would faint at the least excitement. I sufâ€" fered from headaches and dizziness, and often it seemed as though there were clouds before my eyes. Finally I was forced to go to bed with weakâ€" ness. I doctored for six weeks while in bed without receiving any benefit. Finally I was induced to take Dr. Williams‘ Pink Pills, and when I had taken ten boxes I was completely cured, and never felt better in my life. I am convinced that what Dr. Wilâ€" liams‘â€"Pink Pills did for me they will do for others, and I warmly recomâ€" mend them to all weak women." _ You can get these Pills from any medicine dealer or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50, from The Dr. Williams‘ Medicine Co., Brockâ€" ville; Ont. wWORN WORRIED : WwWOMEN FREAK MEMORY REYVEALED. Compensatory. Nature bestows her own compenâ€" sations: if a man is fat he is usually endowed with a jolly, optimistic temâ€" perament, Conditions of His Herds, Buildings, Fences and Grounds Usually Tell Correctly. The conditions which any man creates about him are apt to reflect his own character to a very large deâ€" gree. When you pass a farm that is | well tilled, with fences, roads and }lanes in good order, when you.see in the field a herd of good cattle, well (‘fed, thrifty and contented, it is a ;pretty safe conclusion that the owner and master is a man of a certain type !of character, and that one to be apâ€" lproved of. You will probably find him to be a man of quiet and dignified | manner. That is the first point about ' a character such as will mark the man who keeps his farm premises in good order and good repair, who will own such stock, and keep them in such conâ€" dition.. If fields are well tilled and fences in good repair, it is safe to assume that the stable premises will be comfortable and neat and trim. His herd of cattle and their condition bear further evidence of the fact. A man possessed of simple energy and activity may keep his premises neat, but his kind of character is apt rather to find expression in the performance of a lot of hard work, that will disâ€" play more or less of, irregularity in its performance. It takes a nature that is orderly, a mind that is deâ€" liberate and studiqus, thoughtful and considerate, to direct energies to the best all round advantage. These are the characteristics to expect in the man whose farm and .its herds imâ€" presses you, in this favorable way, as you pass along the road.â€"Canadian Countryman. Chicago .......

Figures issued by the Bureau of Railway News and Statisâ€" tics, Chicago, show that there were twentyâ€"eight railway companies of more or less importance in the hands of receivers at the close of the calenâ€" dar year 1914, in addition to nearly forty minor roads. The combined lengthâ€"of these larger railways operâ€" ated by receivers amounted to 19,449 miles, with a total capitalization of no less than $1,376,678,913.. They include the St. Louis and San Francisco Railâ€" road, with excellent services in the southwest; the Chicago and Eastern Illinois Railroad, with one of the best services between Chicago and St. Louis; the Wabash, with its strong geographical position, providing short line mileage between many. important cities in the Middle West; the Pere Marquette, serving thickly populated districts in Michigan; and the Toledo, St. Louis and . Western Railroad, known as the Clover: Leaf Route, traâ€" versing the progressive states of Inâ€" diana and Illinois.

"The rapid increase in dry territory in the United States has resulted in a shortage of tea, according to Geo. F. Mitchell, supervising tea examiner of Treasury Department. Tea stocks in the United States are lower than they have ever been. The price of tea is advancing steadily."â€"Chicago _ "Triâ€" bune," April 22nd. In the thirtyâ€"seven years, from 1876 to 1913, the records show that not less than 754 U.S. roads, with an operated length of 145,176 miles, and with $8,262,453,000 capital stock and funded debt, passed into receivers‘ hands. â€"Among these were included such properties as the Northern Paciâ€" fic, Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe, that were subsequently reorganized and placed upon a profitable basis. Other important lines which have gone into receivership in 1915 include old established properties, such as the Missouri Pacific System, with a length operated of 9,670 miles. The stock of the Missouri Pacific a few years ago was selling above par, and it is still considered to be a read with considerable possibilities. The total capitalization, stocks bonds was $1,376,678,000. _ Elimi ing duplications, the net capita tion is less than $60,000 per mile.

"Well, well," cried grandfather, "whyâ€"do you say that?" ‘"Why," said the little girl, "I‘ve workâ€" ed all the afternoon blowing soap bubâ€" bles and trying to pin them on moâ€" ther‘s hat." So Abundant as to Compensate Shortâ€" age in Wheat. Senator Jules Meline, former preâ€" sident of the French Cabinet, presidâ€" ing at the annual meeting of the Agriâ€" cultural Assembly, presented statisâ€" tics showing that the potato and forâ€" age crops this year are so abundant as to compensate the shortage in wheat.
