' l "The rough nature of the country over which the cars travel and the ex. cessive heat often experienced have made the cost of rubber tires a serious item in maintenance, thereby causing many experiments to obtain a substi- tute for rubber at a moderate cost. The invention and recent perfection of the Australian 'homing' tire is claimed to have solved the problem of produc- Ing an emergency tire " a compara- tively small cost. Tests with tires made of various kinds of fibre Were made, with the result that colt fibre was found to be the moat suitable for the purpose because of its lightness, cheapness, resilience, and durability. The greatest dimruity we; to discover a method of joining the ebb of thei rope to make a complete circle of the same size. but eventually a new splicq was invented, and the tire as now sold; in Australia is perfect of its type. , "When first placed on the market} the 'homing' tire was sold as an met-3 - tire in case of a puncture or) blow-out,but it proved so satisfactory? that In the country districts of some of the States the rope tires are trek; quently used on all the wheels ot mo-l tor can, particularly for station orl ranch work and over rough and stony courtry. “The tires are bullet, nail, and glass proof, and if a speed of sixteen miles u not exceeded It u claimed that they are almost - riding as pneumatic tires.

How I Boys' School Learned to Live Up To Their Motto. in the hills of northern Georgia the Berry School for Boys believes in do- ing whatever needs to be done. Its motto is, "Be a lifter, not a leaner." But the position that it holds and the idenls that it maintains were not atv tained without a struggle. In The Men of the Mountains, Mr. Arthur W. Spaulding tells the story of one of the flrst crises in the history of the school. The mountain boy was ready to' plough in the fields, chop in the woods,‘ hammer on the house; he wns not, wholly " his ground in milking the,' cows, cooking his food and making' his bed; but there were some thingy required of him that were too obvious-: ly woman's work.

' Can Obtain New Health Through the Use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Every woman at some time needs a tonic. At special times unusual demands are made upon her strength. Where these are added to the worry and work which falls to her lot, weakness and ill health will follow unless tho blood is fortified to meet the strain. _ Weak women find in Dr. Williams' Pink Pills the tonic exactly suited to their needs. Most of the ills from which they suffer are due to blood- leesneseme condition which the Pills readily cure. These pills save the girl who enters into womanhood in a bloodless condition from years of misery, and afford prompt and per- manent relief to the woman who is bloodless, and therefore weak. Meg. Wm. H. Wagner, Rosenthal, Ont,, writesc-"After the birth of my se- cond child I suffered from troubles which most mothers will understand, without going into details. The doe, tor who was attending me said an operation would be necessary, but as I dreaded this and as Dr. Williams' Pink Pills had been of great help to my sister I decided to try this medi- cine, and I can truly say that after using the pills for some time they made a complete cure and made life more enjoyable than it had been for a long time. I think every woman suffering from the ailments of our next should give Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a fair trial as I know from my own case the great benefit that fol.. lows their use." You can get these pills through any medicine dealer or by mail at 60 cents a box or six boxes for $2.60 from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brookville, Ont. “Heavy cord is first wrapped around the pipe, spacing the turns about one-" half inch. A one-fourth inch layer of the mixture is smeared on and allow- ed to dry; then a second layer is put on and smoothed up.

They are not garden flowers. but trees, and the lendscape of which they form a part reminds one of the hypothetical re- presentations in books of science of a landscape of Mesozoic time, a period antcdnting our own by millions of years. - The trees are indeed those of a by- gone age. In America and Europe shadowy forms of fossil leaves of strange plant species are gathered from the rock, and studied with in. terest; in Australia many of these encient trees are living.

Of the 10,000 species of plants, must of them ate purely Aus.. tralian, and are unknown'even in New Zealand. The general impression one gets of Australian forests is their total unlikenesss to anything seen else.. where. The great forests of timber trees are not damp and shadded and all of one species, but are well lighted and filled with other forests of shorter trees. In places the woods consist of large widely spaced trees surround- ed only by bunch grass. and eve in areas where water is not to be f nd on the surface for hundreds of 5 " miles true forests of low trees are present. Great Forests of All-trails Filled With Sunshine and Flowers. One readily understands why the Australian loves his trees, says the National Geographic Magazine. The groves of giant eucalyptus form pic- tures never forgotten, and the scent of the wattle brings a htirnesiek feel- ing like the smell of sage to the west- erner.

Deafness and Hall Noises When the transportation of supplies through the snow in the Vosges last winter was of urgent importance, the French army authorities conceived the idea of using dog-drawn sleighs, and several hundred trained animals from Alaska, northwestern Canada and Labrador were obtained. With the ending of winter, the dogs con- tinue to be useful in another way. In the London Chronicle, Mr. H. Warner Allen, representative of the British press with the French army, tells how they are now being harnessed to two- foot-ere light railways, which run everywhere behind the front, and they are capable of drawing the heaviest" load up the steepest gradient. Eleven dogs, with a couple of men, can haul a load that weighs a ton up the most precipitous slopes of the mountains. and I am told that two teams of sev- en dogs each could do the work of five horses in this dimeult country, with a very great economy of men. Of the three breeds in aervice, the best is the Alaskan, although he is perhaps the weakest of them all. His courage never fails, and he will work until he drops.

Since the outbreak of war an enormous number of bogus charitable appeals have been sent out, and peo- ple mponaible for them have made special dorts to - gifts from the King and Queen, for the simple reason that a subscription from their Ma- jesties is regarded by the general public as an indication that the cause Is a good and deserving one.
