To-day the boy is strong and robust, and as cute a mis- chief-maker as a thirteen-months’-old "baby is expected to be, "One day after he had cried bitterly for an hour, I suggested that my wife try him on Grape-Nuts. She soaked two teaspoonfuls in half a cup of warm water for 5 or 6 minutes, then poured off the liquid and to it added a like amount of rich milk and a little sugar. This baby ate ravenously. "When our baby was about eleven months old he began to grow thin and pale. This was attributed to the heat and the fact that his teeth were com- lug, but, in reality, the poor little thing was starving, his mother's milk not being sufficient nourishment. An adult's food that can save a baby proves itself to be nourishing and easily digested and good for big and little folks.

Basins are dug for wa- tering horses, troughs are provided only in case of necessity, and are then propped on posts and filled by means of pumps. Pipes may be driven it water lies at a reasonable depth-in other words, not more than 20 feet, Depending upon their size, these pipes will deliver from four to twenty-two gallons of water per minute. In the German army the upstream water is used for drinking purposes find the downstream water for water- lng horses and for bathing. Suitable signs notify the men which water is safe to drink and which may be used only for bathing.

The water of a camp is a matter of great importance. Only running water is used. Most people know that the Can- adian Paeifie Railway traverses over eleven thousand miles of country in Canada, encounters even tropical and arctic weathers; cuts its way through the rugged and difficult country along the shores of Lake Superior; crosses the endless prairies of the west; and finally runs through the glories of the Canadian Rockies where the road in some places has been hewn out of the "mountain sides under towering peaks; through great canyons; and in other places tunnels and piral rails have to be negotiated, all necessitating care in operation. But in spite of all these difficulties the Canadian Paeifie has not killed a single passenger in a train accident during the past two years, whichis a record Canada can Elace against the recent boast of thel ennsylvania Railroad not having) killed a passenger in three years] Especially so when it is considered that the latter road has not the same climate conditions to face and the easy country through which it tra- verses.

A Japanese mounts his horse on the right side. There can be little doubt that Sir John Simon has reason to entertain high ambitions. His enormous pro- gress in so short a time is made the more remarkable by his not starting life with any advantages. His father was a Welsh Nonconformist elergy- man, a hale and very hearty gentle- man to this day. _ What is the explanation of this re- fusal--unpreeedented in British Par.. liamentary or legal history? It is, evident that Sir John Simon values a merely political career more than the emoluments and the glitter of the highest legal offices. The general verdict in the House of Commons is that Sir John Simon took a poorly-. paid political office because he hopes one day to be Prime Minister of the British Empire. same income of something like four thousand pounds a year. I The Lord Chancellorship is not so ‘highly paid, for the salary is_ ten thousand pounds a year. But it Is, ‘of Course, the greatest prize in the legal profession; the woolsack figures ‘in every school book as representing the goal to which the ambitious youth who becomes a barrister has to as- 'pire. The Lord Chancellor-ship has ‘the additional attraction of carrying ‘with it the handsome pension for life of five thousand pounds a year. Then the Lord Chancellor is the head of the Judiciary, and he is the preciding offi- cer of the House of Lords and a mem- ber of the Cabinet. Avoided Retirement. _ Most lawyers, when they get to that exalted position, are already in the sere and yellow leaf after a long“ and laborious struggle in the legal; profession. It is to them a haven of rest after a stormy life on tempes- tuous seas. But Sir John Simon, when he was offered the position, was still a young man. This astonishingly progressive youth was only 42. Yet he refused the glittering prize, and. not only that, he gave up an office worth fifteen thousand pounds a year for one that is worth only five thou- sand pounds a year, and which is worth even less now because of the arrangement by which the Ministers "pooled" their salaries so that each Minister might have practically the Few men have ever made a bigger sacrifice for political life than Sir John Simon, the Home Secretary. He was, as is known, Attorney-General, and he was offered the Lord Chancel- lorship. From the pecuniary point of view there are no of?iees in even the wide British Empire or in any other country which are so glittering as either of these two offices. The Attorney-General, between salary and fees, must get something like fifteen thousand pounds a year. Sometimes the figures have gone much higher. The Attorney-General is leading coun- sel in all great State cases, and once the late Sir Charles Russell was lucky enough to find such a case when there was an international arbitration in the Behring Sea, and people whisper- ed that the fortunate Irishman had drawn that year as much as thirty thousand pounds. But it may be taken that fifteen thousand pounds is the average income of the Attorney. That is ten thousand pounds more than the Prime Minister receives.

SIR JOHN SIMON’S BIG SAC- RIFICE. gyir John Simon Despite the heavy appearance of the German soldiers' helmets, says London Tit-Bits, they are exceeding- ly light. They are made of steel, but they are nearly as light as a straw hat, and far more comfortable. The large military-looking spike is not placed on the top of the helmet for ornament alone. There are several large holes in it which ventilate the wearer's head. The steel from which the helmet is made is exceedingly thira,---ahmast as thin as paper,-and all round the inside, where the helmet touches the head, there are a number of springs. These springs, which are covered with leather, serve to keep the helmet firmly on the head, with.. out any great pressure. l An aerial torpedo that will travel a hundred miles under its own power is another formidable weapon of war Germany is about to launch at her enemies. The principle of the aerial torpedo is the same as the water to- pedo. It is first projected by compress- ed air, then travels in a direct line under the power of its own propellor and under the guidance of its own rudder. With the aerial torpedo per- fected, Germany would have a weap- on more terrifying to London than all her Zeppelins, Taubes, fifty eenti- metre guns and undersea cruisers combined. mnard’s Liniment cures From His Native Town. A tourist in Italy was surprised one morning to meet some people from his native town. "Why, Mrs. Ianeeleyl" he cried. .“How do you do? You are the last person I ex- pected to see in Italy!"
