What would you take for your chance of living if you had dined on broken glass, with a handful of pins and nails as a "chaser." ,lanus Fitzgerald, i.T years old, didn't hurriedly repenl and rush for :, doctor when he ate of such fare. On the contrary, be went about his business and slept soundly of nights, witb no suggestion of internal un easiness. And he did It for 30 years. Recently out at the county hospital Seattle, they performed an operation on Fitzgerald, and when it was all over the surgeons awaided him without stint the doubtful honor of being the original human ostrich. The patient's stomach yielded 171 bits of broken glass, hack-knives, nails, pins, coins and other pieces oi bric-a-1 rae.

He said the Cranbrook Herald was the cheapest and besl meal he had eaten for years, And Fitzgerald is going to get well.

One hundred men have been discharged, and the only work, heing done by the company is on the "big showing," where the steam shovel is retained at. work. On Vancouver Island the Jingle Pot has been shutdown for a Ime.

A company has opened offices in Vancouver the purpose of which it is to dredge for gold on the Fraser River below Hope. Attempts have heen made at different timcB to work dredges on the lower Eraser but they failed to obtain profitable results with the exception if a dredge that operated at Yale for a few months. The reason for this failure was the unsuitable types of dredges used and their operation on gravel which did 1 ot carry pay dirt. Eminent engineers, who have investigated the Fraser say however that sections of the river carry payable gedd where conditions nre favorable to its re- ei.veiv by iliedgiiig and that there is no reason why this method of recovery of placer gold should not be made a success on that river. in sight in the company's Hidden: creek mine, with good chances of in- 1 reusing tonnage by further explora-- tion and that large additional tonnage of clean ore averaging 0.G per cent, copper have also been developed. The 2 per cent ore carries recoverable values ol :■:• ■,:. per ton in gold i,nd silver. The Bonanza, mine in oA- dition has a single ore body measuring up 340,000 tons. The cost of equipping this property, is placed at SEO.OflO. The ■ investigation by the bankers shows an amortised value of Granby stock of $100iper share based on 17c copper. The 1 company's i'hoe- nic mines are further stat d to have developed 3,000,000 tons of ore. The-, copper ; value of the ore at " den creek mine is placed nt 300,000,- 00,1 lbs. and nt the Thoenix mines 48,000,000 Mis. or a total asset of 354,000,000 lbs. of copper, This is equivalent to three-fifths of the total copper production of the province to date, and it is probable the copper reserves at Hidden creek will he increased about 50 per rent on these figures. President Nichols states the company's production is 3,500,000 lbs., of copper jier month or at. the rate of 12,000,000 lbs. per annum. This production is being increased by" the doubling of the Anyox smelter capacity: from 2-.000 tons a day to 4,000 tons a day.

The more sensational lit- fratnre of the middle of last century teems with jilots that explain and justify the care which later legislation has taken to ensure that no one shall be treated as of unsound mind save on the most trustworthy medical authority, and that the state shall have the fullest control of the Institution in which he Is treated. In principle this is ail to the good, and in normal times it results iu no hardship comparable to its benefits, Since, however, cruelly and illogical- ly enough, a certain cloud lianas over a person who has at any time been certified of unsound mind, these very safeguards do have the efleet of causing medical men to withhold wherever possible at the re4iiest of relatives a certificate of insanity, with ithe result that sufferers from mild ' forms of mental trouble are S'.ime- times denied the most efficient treatment. This result, unfortunate enough at any time, and removable only by the growth of as spnsible a view of mental as of any other kind of ailment, is at present intensified by the return from active service of bundle,ls .'f men with whose nervous systems the appalling conditions ui mod- ern war have played havoc, who need the best possible treatment to hritii: them bark t.. the normal again, and who are denied tins because nursing homes cannot receive them nn»l because there is an object mn te> rertiti- c.iti.eii and reception in a recognized institution.

Among them will be Some who, through no fault of theirs, OM* Dot temperamentally withstand i the persistant hludgtoning ol din and carnage. Their breakdown will nl most, certainly be temporary If pro perly handled, for experience proves that thc mental disorder arising from shock usually vanishes with good nursing and perfect rest. It iB clearly the duty of the state to ensure that these shall be forthcoming quickly, fully, and under the most acceptable conditions. , The steps by which'the government Lill seeks to secure this end are, however, questionable. Nothing in its provisions limits its application to soldiers. Its effect would be \o make possible the detention as a lunatic of any person, civilian or soldier, for a period of six months in any institution, subject only to such regulations as to place, period, and treatment as the home secretary, may decide to frame with the concurrence of the Lord Chancellor. It would thus make waste paper of the chief guarding clause in lunacy legislation without specifying what provision, if any, shall be substituted. Even in war- lime it is a sound principle to disturb existing law no more than is necessary in order to adapt it to £he special needs of a new situation, and no case can be made out for saddling the home secretary with a responsibility the proper discharge of which depends on the strictest Investigation of each case. Such a course might too easily have the opposite elfect to that intended, and result in the framing of regulations which would compel to asylum treatment cases of mental disorder normally uncertlfi- ahle, for while the Act permits a nursing home to accept a mental patient it would also permit a patient apparently suffering from mental trouble to be consigned to an nsylum with.mt a certificate. The prime object of the bill—to ensure tbat thc best conditions for recovery shall bc given to soldiers suflering from shock —can be achieved by the simple plan of securing for them without lcgul process special treatment such as is given, for example, at Maudsley Mental hospital, and by confining this minor chnnire to soldiers alone. To drive a coach and four through the lunacy laws, even in the interests of so urgently necessary a step, would be a foolish and dangerous excess.

It mystified me, as j much of my earlier medical teaching did, and I huve dealt out this ex- planation on countless occasions to inquiring luccoughers, who were grateful, not that they understood it any more thnn I did, but because it . et.ipped the hiccough.

M ny Sad Sights. She • dis e-f sad sights here and many of her st irles are of little iM I •it'-ii wandering ibout quite list and crying piteously for their mothers, and of young women weeping in the streets and begging to le shot. Her brother is gone, -he knows not where, N'or has she since (heard of h m. Still travelling in a sort of necromantic safety Bhe regains The Hague and nml awaiting her there her passage to Canada and some money. The |ourn y t • London was made In December, while as yet she sfoke no word of English, in England she wandered about Bhowlng her pass- ports ami the papers explaining her desired lestinat.ion, and in time stu- found herself on the ocean, then in Montreal with along overland triji hefore her. "I came through just iike a letter," -he bbj s, e mply an I pathetically, "and my passport was the stamp." It was a pr ;'; day for the girl refugee when she reached Revelst..ke and restored the baby to its parents. But she was very tir '1 and Still BUl ferine from the shock of her fright. As a result of this she l st nearly all of her hair, and the doctors told her that bad It not fallen out it would have turned irrey.

"They say! ran not gel bac't," she says, "that I shi I l ' try, it is too dangerous, But my passports ; re still go id and 1 do not fear the Germans nny more and I could help my country. So some day I go lack I hope soon. Hut I wish I hear from my brother." "Perhaps you will get a • letter Boon," says the, sympathetic listener. "Why it may come any day. He may come back to Canada again and then you will be all together once more." But With the pathos of the little girl wbo :n.listed "We are seven." idie shakts her head and there are tears in her blue eyes as she replies: "Oh, no, that can not he. Oh, no.

How Divisions, Ki-gimeiits, Com- jinnies, Klc, Are Made Up. Curious though it may seem, it is not quite correct to refer, as many people do, to the Indian and Colonial troops as pari of the "British army." strictly Bpeaklng, the term "Uritish army" only applies to the land forces of the United Kingdom, which consist of the regular army and the Territorial army, and that part of the former which serves in the British Dominions oversea, it being customary lo refer to these troops aa the "British army" in contradistinction to the "Native army" or "Indian army" in India, and to the "Local Forces" in South Africa and ln the British Colonies. The regular army, whether at home or abroad, ls paid for by the Imperial Exchequer, except in India (although certain colonies pay contributions towards Its upkeep). India, however, while paying for its own native army, also pays a contribution towards the cost of troops at home. The permanently embodied portions of the tegular army consist of thirty-one cavalry regiments, twenty- five horse artillery batteries, 147 field batteries, ninety-nine companies of garrison artillery, seventy-seven companies of engineers, nine battalions of Foot Guards, 148 battalions of infantry of the line, besides departmental services, some of which come under the head of the Army Service Corps, that highly- organized department of the army which attends to the transport of baggage, supplies, and transport of food and forage, and also assists the med'eal service. It should be mentioned that part of these sections of the regular army are stationed abroad during p nee times, but, on - ibilizstlon ior var, the bulk be- rorrtes absorbed Into an expeuttionary f - Tl :> is divided Into various army corif. according to the number of : .?-. s.^nt to ihe front, an army corps comprising Infantry, cavalry, and ar- tillery. -r command of general of- Thi British army, in times of peace, is divided Into six army corps', half of which are composed of regular troops, and the remainder Territorials. The strength of an army corps Is not definitely fixed, but consists cf alout 40,000 men. A British infantry division is about half an army corps, and is the smallest tactical unit possessing all arms. It usually consists of twelve battalions, each of 1,000 men. In addition to this, there is at least two squadrons of cavalry, from thirty-six to seventy-two guns, beside field companies of engineers, medical supply, transport, and signal services. In all, its strength is normally about 20,000 men. The war establishment of a cav* airy regiment is twenty-five officers, 537 other ranks, and 562 horses, formed into three squadrons. A ovalry brigade is made up of three regiments, and a division of four brigades; so that a division consists of twelve regiments, supplemented by two horse artillery brigades, engineers, signal troops, field ambulances, and cavalry train, not to mention one aeroplane squadron. The total establishment of a cavalry division mobilized for war consists of 9,896 officers and men, 10,195 horses and twenty- four guns. ildS 7>-DI*\ COPYRIGHT ULDIHWOOD A UNDEBWOOO. N.
