YÂ¥ PERIL OF 4E HIGH SEAS Delore ha Harness to suspend a basket from a fruit picker‘s shoulders and leave both hands free has been invented. Those whe bring sunshine to the lives of others cannot keep it from themselves,â€"Barrie. R 1 The man who gets up in the mornâ€" ing with his work planned for the day has got it partly done. . One recently returned‘prisoner, who served as orderly in a German hosptâ€" tal, kept a record of all %e British patients who died there, and since his homeâ€"comivy has written to their kinsfolk enclosing a copy of a photoâ€" graph, which he had specially taken for the purpose, of the English corner of the hospital cemetery. Kept Record of Comrades‘ Death in Captivity. The thousands of missing British prisoners in Germany constitute one of the most pathetic tragedies of the war. _ ‘The nember unaccounted for would doubtiess be greater still had it not been for the thoughtfulness of some who also suffered in German prisons but survived. _ To get through the enormous amount of work which comes to his Majesty‘s table, a private secretary and two assistant secretaries are neâ€" cessary. For there are many State matters which the King and the King alone can pass. Halfâ€"past nine in the morning sees his Majesty at work, and he would be a rash man who names the hour when all was done. For there is one thing which the ruler of this vast Empire insists onâ€"no work that can otherwise be dealt with must be left over to the next day. He is "a cleanâ€"desk man." The writer then proceeds to tell of the domestic side of his life, showing how every regulation issued by the food or coal controller was obeyed to the very letter in his household, fireplaces being reduced in size, lightâ€" ing cut down, and heavy reductions made in all laundry accounts. No storedâ€"up food was ever found at Buckingham or Windsor such as Potsâ€" dam revealed. Flowerâ€"beds grew vegeâ€" tables for the nation; in short, he and his family did their best to share the people‘s cares and sacrifices. | The King is probably one of the busiest men in the Empire, his work being in many unthoughtâ€"of and unâ€" heardâ€"of labors. For this Mr. Lioyd George vouched when he said: "There is one man who is working as hard as the hardest worked man in this counâ€" try, and he is the sovercign of the realm." The writer then proceeds to tell how he does it: There has not been an alrâ€"raid on a London district but his Majesty, acâ€" companied by the Queen, has not driven to the devastated district to express his sympathy with the sufâ€" ferers. Messages to Seven Fronts. The barest recital of a fraction of what he has accomplished, accomâ€" panied often by her Majesty, makes one marvel at the endurance and high sense of duty which could accomplish this and much more. His Majesty has carried out well over 200 inspections, reviewing in doing so over 2,000,000 troops; _ no division has left these shores for any of our seven fronts=â€" for we were fighting on seven fronts at one timeâ€"without either being inâ€" apected by the King, or, if cireumstanâ€" ces rendered that impossible, hearing a farewell message from him: he has visited with his sympathetic smile and kindly word the wounded in more . than 300 hospitals; he has ;onoi through 150 munition factories, charmâ€" ing all, men, women and girls, with' his bonhomie, and has presented with his own hand more than 12,009 deâ€" corations won on the fleld of battle. Four separate visits havé been paid to the Grand Fleetâ€"the last of which was on the eve of the surrender of the German navy. On shore, naval bases and depots have been visited thirtcen times. To parody a famous line, "All the world loves a worker." And how King George has worked for the nation these past four years and three months! During that period he has been a stranger to holidays. _ It is doubtful if he has had mava than taw months!‘ During that period he has been a stranger to holidays. _ It is doubtful if he has had more than ten consecutive days in his beloved Norâ€" folk home, if as much. F In an article on the King,.an English writer says: "Good old George!" This may not at first blush appear to be a very reâ€" spectful way of hailing one‘s soverâ€" eign, but it is the shout that rang out in Hyde Park when His Majesty reâ€" viewed the Legion that marches unâ€" der the Silver Badge. _ Among Engâ€" lishmen the adjective "old" when apâ€" plied to a man indicates not age. but affection. That he is loved. It was in this sense that it was applied to the King in Hyde Park, and none knew better than our sovereign how to take it. It told him, indeed, the depth and homely affection in which he is held. And it is betraying no royal confidence to say that it went straight to the heart.

In an article on the King,an English A THOUGHTFUL PRISONER THE WAR LABORS OF KXG GEORCGE V. A Hardâ€"Working King. So many romantic and pathetic anecdotes are related of precious love letters, cherished in trench and battle by gallant lovers in warâ€"scarred France, that the reflections of a penâ€" sive Frenchman in L‘Horizon, the jJournal of the poilus, make a refreshâ€" ing change. He, too, had borne about with him a letter from his ‘"No one," answered Jones, unconâ€" cernedly ; "I thought it would improve my appearance." "Improve, your appearance wid a face like yours!" bawled the enraged sergeant. "If yez don‘t have it on again at the afternoon parade toâ€"day, there‘ll be trouble!" "Private Jones," he roared, "who on earth gave yez permission to have that moustache cut off?" A certain Irish sergeant was exceedâ€" ingly wroth when he discovered that one of his men had paid a visit to the regimental barber and had come back without his moustache. "Oh, yes, he‘s in," said the lady wistfully, "but you‘re his first patient, and I‘d like you to come as a surprise for him toâ€"morrow. You see, it‘s his birthday!" tor in ? w ‘"Doesn‘t she have it, then?" "Not ‘er" She says as ‘ow it doesn‘t suit ‘er digestion. But there ain‘t nothing wrong with ‘er digestion.

They turned the Turkish retreat into an absolute rout by bombing all the signal stations so that the enemy could not ascertain the movements of its own armies and they sat on the airdromes and did not let a single German plane go up to make signals." 1 "The Turks are good at fighting on the ground, but they could not fly, and their airplanes were all manned by Germans or Austrians. Our job was to make flights across to Nazâ€" areth, Nablousâ€"which was ancient Sechemâ€"and other points held by the enemy, and to do low strafing, which scared the Mohammedan solâ€" diers to death, as they were convinc-‘ ed we were in league with the evil one. Other machines were used for bombing the forts held by the enemy, but great care was taken to spare the holy places, like Nazareth, etc. Speaking of the Palestine camâ€" paign, Capt. Bott said:â€" He was shot down and captured in Palestine, imprisoned in Damasâ€" cus, sent to Asia Minor, and finally to Constantinople. He escaped in disâ€" guise and reached a port in Russia which he found in control of the Gerâ€" mans and the Bolsheviki, and finally got away to Bulgaria. Previous to his adventures in the near East, Captain Bott, who is twentyâ€"six years of age, flew for two years along the Western front and was shot down during one of the battles of the Somme, but escaped capture. 1 The ggrl-iegt st;o;im vessels also car Capt.

Massage is to the scalp what phyâ€" sical culture is to the body.

The circulation of the scalp is also increased, thus preventing atroâ€" phy of the hair roots and the grayâ€" ness which results from jit. "So valuâ€" able, in fact, is massage for young and old," says an authority on the subject, "that when properly underâ€" stood and appreciated we shall see fewer bald heads and a vastly higher average of beautifully abundant tresses than we do now."

"Wal," he went on, "we were just beginning to despair, when a lucky thought seemed to strike one of the firemen. Catching hold of a hose, he took it alongside of the house, and turned the nozzle upwards so that a stream of water shot continuously past the window.

This new way to rid one‘s feet of corns was introduced by a Cincinnati man, who says that, while freezone is sticky, it dries in a moment, and simâ€" ply shrivels up the corn without inâ€" flaming or even irritating the surâ€" rounding tissue or skin. A few drops of this new ether comâ€" pound applied directly upon a tender, aching corn should relieve the soreâ€" ness instantly, and soon the entire corn, root and all, dries up and can be lifted out with the fingers. You simply say to the drug store man, "Give me a quarter of an ounce of freezone." This will cost very little but is sufficient to remove every hard or soft corn from one‘s feet. The centre of this work for Canada is the Royal College of Dental Surâ€" geons of Ontario, Toronto. This colâ€" lege, without public grant of any kind, has carried on during the war, and at the same time has placed certain lec-' tions of its building at the disposal otg the Militia Department for the work[ of the Dental Corps. This has been‘ done absolutel‘ without cnarge, either | for rent or any of the accessories.[ such as light or heat. This generous | treatment is still being accorded so long as the Dental Corps requires| special facilities which the Onmriofl’ College is able to supply. | Possibly even more remarkable are the substitutes for a lost eye. In these cases a great deal of the orbit has also been sh6t away, and it is necesâ€" sary to restore these parts before the artificial eye is set in place. This work includes the lashes, eyelids and all the surrounding parts. _ When comâ€" pleted the specially trained artist 4s again called into requisition, and the whole piece is cleverly attached to & specially constructed pair of specâ€" tacles, and the "camouflage" is so perâ€" fect that the casual observer is entireâ€" ly deceived. <#~ A new and remarkable developâ€" ment has, however, taken place in the Dental Corps, and that is the replaceâ€" ment, by artificial substitute, of lost facial tissue, including eve or nose and the surrounding parts. Jn the case of the nose, the part is reproâ€" duced aluminum, and is then tinted the exact color of the face, by an artist especially retained for this purpose. The reputation of cwanadian denâ€" tists in the army spread far beyond the Canadian forces, and Imperial solâ€" diers frequently sought the services of Canadian dental surgeons at great personal inconvenience to themselves.
