(6931) "ISMS" OF TODAY Communism, agmiinnlsm, prole.ttr- ianisin, anarchism, have all hnd their dny, and it wns a had day—in a thorn sand Sparta nnd Rome and Jerusalem and Paris, writes Henry van Dyke, in the Scrlbner. Why givo thorn another day? The clevino right of kings nnd capalists to impose their will upon their fellow met. has heen tested many times and has always failed to make good before the throne of Eternal Wisdom and Righteousness. The bloody bankruptcy of the French reign of terror was no worst.-, and no better, than the break-down of the attempt of the Holy Alliance to re-establish the tyranny of hereditary titles and unjust prepogatives. Why ask us to return to these old discredited theories? Thoy are not really guide-posts They are signs of 'no thoroughfare.' Give us something really new, gentle men.. Think out some better way of co .'opera tion between the "haves" and the have tints. Devise uome hot- tor mode of Inducing the lazy to work ami of restraining the clever and industrious from claiming exorbitant gains. That is what we need, as surely as two aud two make four. if you can do this, I promise you that a considerable company of the Intellectual middle-class,. neither "high-brows" who think they know it all, nor ''low-brows' who maintain that nothing, is worth knowing, will be ready for a, promising adventure. _vl en ntlme we foi low i he old gu idt- posts, wliich have been proved, and take pur needful ease by the camp- fires where we find creature comfort and friendly talk, And if our camp is attacked by brigands, we shall have our guns ready. J do'not mean to be drawn into discussion of ihe bold brutalities, of tiie Bolsheviki of Russia, or tho sneaking villainies of the 1. \V. W, in America, .These lie outside of the rogion of literature. Thoy are lo be mot not with essays nnd orations, but with li* w and guns. The decencies of life, the securities of home the safeguard of social order, haying been won, by toil and fighting, irom tlie abyss of barbarism, will not be offered to perish. Neither the fury of the anil-social mn nines, nor the senl.monitnlism of the social Imbeciles will be permitted to destroy thorn. Wo look to statesmen .and warriors to lake cavo of this. CANADA AS OIL PRODUCER • Canada's future a.s an oil producer lies largely iu the Nothwest, ac- ordlng to an address given , by Dr. IX B, Dowllng, Government geologist before the meribors of the Canadian Mining Institute. The mkt- Dovonirtns formation, essential to large production, Wliich has' been found in many parts of Manitoba, has not been found by the drillers in the Peace River District and-in the potential oll-benring terrltry 'to the north. In the address *on oil and gas ;iros- pects iu Ontario by Dr. .M. Y. Williams, pf the geological survey, Dumhiou. Kent, the western part of Middlesex, Grey and Elgin counties were declared to be the sources of oil from the coniferous forma! ion, which had been the most profilie source in tlie province. After many examinations he considered that tlu* quantity of oil per ton of shale has not been sufficient lo warrant such enterprises' being carried on co:i- mereially. . ONE -FRENCHMAN'S SACRIFICE Thirteen sonft dead, that represents part of the war's cost to a French farmer who .lived at Ronlngho, near Ypres—surely a record.. Ho had 30 children and 20 of his 2!J sons fought mi the various fronts. In 1017 the widow of one of the sons was killed by ii German shell a: Dunkirk. The farmer himself and one of his daugh ters met a tragic end. In October, 1D14, they went to Lille to take part in' celebrating the hundroth birthday of a relative. They wero' met on their return by a German patrol and v.-ere shot LINCOLN RELIC PUT IN MUSEUM In the antique room of the museum of history, science and art, in Exposition Park, Los Angeles, Cab, is n valuable and priceless heirloom handed down from generation to generation and now owned by n former resident of Evansvllle, Intl., (Mrs. Maud Jennings Cryderman of Grecp- acre, Wnsli.) the famous corner cupboard, mad£ by Abrahari Lincoln, In his youth, in Spencer county, Indi- ina, and presented by him to Mrs. Orydcrman'S' great grandparents, Mr. md Mrs. .losiah Crawford: The book, "Life of Washington," which was damaged by a storm, wtu-j one borrowed by young Lincoln from losiah Crawford, and for vyhicH young Lincoln asked permission to pay. Mr. Crawford, for whom Lincoln was working as a farm baud tried to dissuade.him, saying that iin- loss of one book did not matter. ( Hoowever, as young Lincoln insisted, he was allowed to cut corn for three days without recompense, the damaged book then being given to him by Mr. Crawford. Not content with this, and remembering having heard Mrs. Crawford on one or two occasions express a desire for a "corner cupboard," which was then somewhat in vogue in that little frontier settlement, Abraham went to his father, Thomas Lincoln, who had lairglu him cabinet making and carpentering, and explaining the situation, asked his help ;n constructing such a cupboard. Thomas Lincoln consented, and, working together during spare hours, they made the cupboard, wbich when completed, young Abe proudly and triumphantly delivered at the home of his surprised and pleased employers and presented it lo theni wiih li)s compliments'. Gift lieyond Price Years later,,nfter Lincoln had become president, the Crawford's lin- nirally considered the cupboard as a "gift beyond price." Upon their death if became the property of their daughter, Mrs. Rui.li Crawford Jennings (later, Mrs. Huff), who was a tiny girl at homo when Abraham Lincoln-'was employed on her father's farm. Khe was familiarly anil lovingly known throughout the district as "Aunt nd often recounted to hijr hearers interesting anecdotes of those early pioneer days antl of Ihe tlri- colns. Upon her death, at a ripe old age, at tiie home of her sou, Mr. S. II. .Jennings of Rockport, Ind., ihe old cupboard was Inherited by him. Since his death in 111 1(1 it has bo- came the property of bis daughter, .Mrs. Maude .leanings Cryderman, who lias hud it placed in the museum in Los Angles for safe-keeping nnd for tlie purpose of allowing the general public tlie opportunity uf seeing this remarkable old relic. Made of solid walnut from lumber sawed with a whipsaw from trees on the old Lincoln farm in Spencer county the cupboard presents a hiindsome nnd imposing appearance, being seven feet high and weighing over three hundred pounds, It is triangular in "shape, helng so constructed as to fit into t la- corner of a room. There are two sets of doors—tho upper set opening to shelves for ilie accomodation of dishes, etc., while a lower set opens to shelves for eatables etc. Tiie doors nre nicely panelled and there is a strip of hand carving across the front of the cupboard above the upper set of doors. Tiie old-fashioilod brass hinges ar,e consider;! lily worn on account of the doors having been opened and closed so many thousands of times during its long lifetime. The doors, and the entire front of the cupboard is put together with walnut pegs, while in tlie back, band-made, wrought- iroii nails wore usotT.The - cupboard bus never been marred by the addition of paint, stain or varnish but is still in its natural walnut finish. Despite its almost one hundred years of existence it Is still In an almost Perfect state of preservation. Of tlie thousands of rare articles in the museum from all parts of the world this handiwork of Lincoln's is considered the most interesting and valuable, being the only thing of its kind in existence. It hears this card: "Not something Lincoln owned, not something Lincoln bought or sold. Bilt something conceived by his youthful mind and matte by himself, wiih his father's help, In order to satisfy his conscience— his Innate love of right and justice—and by him presented to his employer and benefactor," HANDICAP IN. • LOSS OF EYE "What actual diwihitiiy is involved in the loss nf one eye? Accident insurance companies usually estimate it at 50 per cent., tun Sir Arthur Pearson told the British* commLioe on tbe administration of soldiers' and sailors' pensions that this was absolutely absurd, -and suggested _!!_ per cent, as fi mon- reasonable ostl- mntae, It depends largely upon the time 6f life at Which the rye is lost. By binocular vision, says tin- r,anee(., we fuse two slightly dissimilar images of an object; which are focused - upon the two retinas, and this esabies us to estimate correctly Iht' relative position or distance of objects. This power, however, is not confined to thoso of us who possess two good eyes. Tlie man who has been blind in one eye from infancy possesses It in equal perfection with the possessor bf two eyes, iVor, many other factors unite tu compensate for the absence of stereoscopic vision. These are atmospheric and shadow effects, parallax and, above all, memory nf what the shape of objects really is, according to knowledge which bas been acquired In early years, largely by the sense of touch. On the other hand, if one who possesses j his faculty is suddenly deprived of ii be will he considerably handicapped, especially al first. A .woman may find she cannot pour from a teapot into a cup without spilling the tea. A hammerman may take some time before he can hit the nail of the head with his former accuracy; indeed, whether or not he can ever attain M again is doubtful.

To him a rule, or a custom, or number, or anything dead thing is of more value than a human being. Keep track of tile ginl. of sill kinds you meet during the day, and then make it calculation of the enormous human energy consumed by encountering chose colds on the ^oclal and busines highway.

HOW BOWIE KNIFE HAD ITS ORIGIN James Bowie, who tiled at the Alamo, where his body was found surrounded liy Mexicans whom he had laid .low with his knife, litis hitherto heen supposed to have invented the knife, it was in the days before revolvers and breech loaders, and tlie frontiersman of the time demanded a weapon that could be suddenly brought into action ami that would he deadly. Thc pistol was good for one shot: a sword or an axe was cumbersome; an ordinary knife, win not durable enough; So the knife thiit Is associated with the name of Howie was ;i heavy dagger, with a short guard or hill, slightly curved blhde antl double edge. If necessary it could he thrown. It is first supposed to have etlgetl its way Into history on the occasion of. the duel between Dr. Matldox and Samuel Wells on a sandbar near Natchez. Tho principals failed to wound each other, so tholr friends turned in for a sort of general 'housewarui'Ing, thc result being six dead and fifteen wounded; Howie, who Is sjiii! to have been shoi early tn tlie exercises, drew his knife", "fashioned front ii blacksmith's file." nud killed Major Morris- Wright.

For these, special tickets will allow their ration, of 400 grammes (l-l oz.)' a day nt the present price of fifty centimes per kilogramme, or nventy centimes pe rratlon. The decree of thc Undor-Secretary of Supplies still leaves the control of various types of corn under State control in order that home-grown produce nnd that whicli comes from abroad may reach the miller and retailer at the same price.

Meiubor Auillt Barean of Circulation MONDAY MORNING, MARCH 22, 1920 One Way They Expose Weakness of Their Case The average Bolshevist orator displays his lack of mental balance and the weakness of his case in numerous' ways, one being has fatuous declaration that all who oppose the various Socialistic or communistic schemes are "controlled by the capitalists" or "bought by capitalists" or "paid by, capitalists." He can't effectively answer the arguments against his theories and so he descends to the plan of casting reflections upon his opponents' motives, a method as old as it is unconvincing. Every newspaper, except a few of the Red type, every statesman, clergyman and leader of thought who is anti-Bolshevist is condemned as a "tool of capitalism." Only the Bolshevist orator has the welfare of the people at heart. All others are inspired by selfish and mercenary motives. That is the burden of the cry, or "argument" as it is called. "Only we Bolshevists are honest friends of humanity. Our opponents are simply selfish capitalists or mercenary agents of capitalism" they declare and on this basis of "reasoning" they assert that what is adversely reported and said of the effect of Bolshevism by opponents of the Bolshevist theories is inspired by improper motives and untrue. When a speaker or writer, no matter how clever a weaver of phrases or how accomplished in the art of sophistry, tries to answer opponents by casting reflections on their motives he cries aloud the weakness of his powers of reasoning and the unfortunate mental condition into which his infatuation for his theories has dragged him. K <A K -%. Dependents of Workmen Are Entitled to Increase The principle of the amendments to the provincial workmen's compensation act providing for increases in compensation to dependents of men who suffer fatal injuries in the course of their work should receive general approval. Injured men automatically receive an increase in compensation in proportion to increases in wages, owing to the fact that the amount of compensation is a percentage of their average wages, but the act provides for fixed allowances for dependents of men who are killed while engaged in their regular work. These allowances were fixed when the act was passed in 1916 and the increase in the cost of living since that date makes larger allowances necessary. To change the scale of allowances, therefore, to bring it into conformity with increases in the cost of living is fair and in accord with the principle of the act. » » » » As Others See Us It is always interesting to see ourselves as others see us. Sometimes the resultant sensation is painful; at other times it is wholly pleasurable. The Riverside (California) Enterprise sees Canada's way of doing things in a wholly favorable light: "On several occasions lately we have spoken in these pages of the excellent work in the way of reconstruction that has been accomplished by the Canadian government since the war ended," says the California paper. "The gentlemen we send to represent us at Washington are so busily, engaged inquiring into the affairs of the people to the south of us, that they seem to have no eyes and ears for the splendid progress that is being made by our neighbors to the north. Yet the source of this progress and the channel along which it moves should be of interest to these gentlemen. "For instance, they might find out why it is that Canada, with her small budget as compared with our own, 'has been able to pay a war service gratuity to her soldiers much in excess of that paid by Britain and the United States; why it is that every Canadian soldier who was permanently disabled is now in receipt of a regular monthly pension, that all the dependents of those who made the supreme sacrifice are already in possession of an allowance sufficiently high to enable them to live in measurable comfort; and how the Dominion government has found a way to loan the enormous sum of $150,000,000 to ex-service men that they might secure farms that are well furnished with livestock and agricultural implements. "Pursuing further this line of inquiry these gentlemen might ask why, when we find it essential to withdraw federal supervision of a merchant marine, thus relinquishing the advantage we gained during hostilities, Canada is embarking upon a course of government management of freighters, which will, in 20 months from the beginning of the current year, put her in possession of harbors, docks, and a net tonnage of 400,000 sea bottoms. Already ten of these freighters are plying between the Canadian ports and the ports of the West Indies and the countries of South America, thus opening up avenues of trade. "They might further inquire how the Canadian merchants found time, at the request of the government, to equip and operate for two months a magnificent trade exposition in far-off Athens, conducting daily excursions for the merchants of Greece and the near-by Balkan states, and thus receiving orders enough to keep some of their factories going full time for five years. "We hold, that the above accomplishments, which are exact in every detail, are well worth an investigation. And then, if these gentlemen asked us why Canada was doing so much while we were doing so little, we should somewhat heartlessly reply that the people of Canada were sending a few broad-gauged statesmen to Ottawa, while we are sending many parochial politicians to Washington." » J TEN YEARS AGO TODAY j (From Ibe Files of The Dally Nows of Mnrch 21, 1010.)

PROTECT DRAINAGE TO OUTLETS Tile, particularly clay tile, should not run out lo lho mouth of the drain. If a. piece of old gas pipe, eight or ten feet long can be secured Ibis should be placed in the drain in place of the lust few tile.

Under nny condition tbe bank is linblo to wear away. Animals pasturing in Ihe field may tramp it down, anil block the tile, so in the second place, an abutment should bo built through which Hie outlet discharges its1 water and the bank will bo kept ill a slate ni" preservation.This may be made of concrete, stone, or plank and should bo a. permanent structure In some cases whore tlie flow is heavy and Ilii) water would have a tendency to undermine thc wall. it. is well In hnid .an apron on which Hie forceof the falling water is broken There Is still another precaution which should be given due consideration. I'loiiuoidly small animals, musltrnls, coons, ground hogs and others seek refuge in Hie tile. Here they are entrapped, and form.a dam lo | Hie flowing water. To overcome such, the outlet should have bars icross ibe end. These may be 'itiiio small, and close together so tluit nothing can get through. A screen may be fitted over tbe end, but unless the mesh is unite large the water is retarded in Its flow. Some times lho first tile is threaded with wire. This forms a good protection, When all these devices are given atleblion, lhe outlet should remain in a slate of efficiency for years, and lho system, It properly installed, should give satisfaction.—1>\ ],.

Four battleships Bxmouth, Albermarie, Duncan, Rua- sti, nnd two cruisers, Arrogant nnd Venus, steamed Into the port. Then ihero followed two splendid French cruisers, the Leon Qambetta and Admiral- Aube, and a now American battleship, the New Hampshire. Of theso, the Gambotta and Duncan havo gone to the bottom in the course of tlio late war, But there was more to come and when Ihe Prince of Wales, now King George, escorted by a battle cruiser, the Minotaur, brought his ship, thc Indomitable, to her anchorage, the Dtifferin Terrace and the glacis of the citldel were black with people for the most part curious to see n vessel whicli had been tbe subject of a groat deal of comment in the press and naval circles.

It was the i|||etrnpolitan termtrns of ono of the f-l"at Roman military roads. Begun 312 B.C., it ran through ono of • ' great city gates southward to wer Italy—to Capttfi. Tarontum and! yond. One mile beyond the gate 'ks the migniflcent temple of Mars. Along the thoroughfare today are jiins of once-beautiful buildings that ■semblo those of northern Franco id Belgium. And no wonder, inasmuch' us their destruction was rougbt by barbarians who wore the hcestors of the present-day Ger- iians. But the great road, like hers of Roman origin, extending (ver most of Europe, remains a won- erful monument to a bygone civil- nation. Every conquest of now territory iy ihe ancient Romans was followed y the construction of a military .art, laid otit straight nnd without Jegard for mountains or other ob taclos. These roads (designed, rimorlly to facilitate tho movement irete, over which was usually laid f troops and supplies) wore of con- pavement of polygonal blocks of Hone. Each of them was under Ilie management of an officer of high /ink, who was held responsible for raffle conditions. SINGLE-TOED HUMAN RACE? Dr. J. /J. Moiiahan, of St. Luke's Hospital staff, Chicago, says that if women continue to wear theso high heeled, pointed-too shoes the hu man race in time, will develop single-toed feet liko the horse. Now, any sensible wjmian wouldn't wanl any) such anatomical change as thai to happen says lhe Kansis Clly Star Moiiahan says that the human race formerly had nine toes to each foot, and to support this theory that the race is already on the way to a single-toed foot, he says that Dr Reuben Gross, of New York, hns a picture of a nine-toed foot, lhat he! found on one of his patients, a boy in Now York city. No use to lose sleep over the danger of this physiological trnnsmogri- ffcation, for some wise anthropologist who ' earns his bread . and o:eo tiiese H.C.L, days by writing ertitor- als comment for the Boston Transcript duly assererates that "while the single-toed human being is at least an ultimate possibility, yet it would take about 1,000,000 years to effect the change in a general way." So toothpick shoes will stay in vogue until fashion says otherwise, and the chiropodists will be busy with.tho corns on five toes—not one —on each foot'. Scientists have discovered, or say they have, that the horse once had five toes on each foot, but that was countless eons ago. The scientists say the horse's foot gradually hardened from running swiftly over stony or parched ground and the compression finally elinimated the toes. As a throwback every now and then, even to-day a domestic horse hnd nn additional toe with a complete hoof at birth, and sometimes three or more toes occur.

The Daily News Job Department NELSON, B.C. I II EI FETTLE >-' 11" OTTAWA, March 21—Pete Mul- doon, who is in charge of Seattle hockey loam ivlttel. arrived &l 6 o'clock tonight, says his men stood the trip woll and are in splendid shape for the opening contest of the big series. The players have not had a workout; since they left the coast. At Minneapolis their train was six hours late and it was impossible to arrange for a practice. At Chicago the ice had been taken out of the artificial plant awl a roller rii.lt was in full operation. The delay on the road proved ted them from practicing in Toronto. Muldoon says he thinks the breaks in the game will decide the series, any team that wins a full series championship in either of tho big leagues must he In the front rank q? hockey and iu the world's series, about lo open, two of the greatest teams that have ever boen developed will contest for honor*;. Rousing Welcome Over 3000 people crowded into central station this afternoon and gave a rousing reception to tlie members of the Seattle hockey team when they arrived here from their long trip across the continent. Bobby Rowe, .Tack Walker, Prank Foyston and others who had played here before were soon singled out and made very mueh at home Hoy Kickey, the Ottawa boy, came in for special mention. Manager Muldoon and members of the party were agreeably surprised by the warm welcome given them. "It is quite evident that this town is hockey mad, sn is Seattle," said Mr. Muldoon. Bobby Rows smiled when he caught a glimpse of the Stanley cup in a store window and ■ remarked: "It won't be there long we are .going to take it back to the coast with us," "We are lucky to have gotten here," said Mr. Muldoon. "If we liad come by the Canadian side we would have been tied up hopelessly. As it was we were delayed hy several washouts." The visitors aro to have a light, workout at the arena tmorrow morn ing. "We just want to limber up .wind get the train dust out of our lungs, said Captain Foyston. He said t_hat Seattle people were wild over hotkey and they had played to bumper crowds all this season. Murray, Tobin and Riley are about the .only members of the Seattle team who have nover played in Ottawa. Murray hails from the Canadian Soo, Riley is a Calgary boy and Tobin graduated from tbo Winnipeg leagues, It has been understood that Seattle would use the great .lack "Walker as centre against Frank Nigh hor, but Muldoon intimated that Foyston would hold down this position tomorrow night and that Walker would switch to right wing. This will bring Darragh and Walker together. Murray, who is a husky- looking star, is slated to: play right wing for Seattle though it is possible one or two shifts will be made. SUDBURY LOSES IN ALLAN CUP GAME TORONTO, Marcli 21.—Sudbury again on Saturday ■ night dcfea:<ed Granites in the Allan cup series, winning the second game 5 to 1 and the series by 11 to 3. In the first meeting between the champions of the N.O.H.A. and the senior O.H.A. champions WOdnO-.o'ny night, the Granites were somewiial stale from frequent engagements, but they were rested up Saturday night and still they lost to the "wolves of thc north." Sudbury will play the University of Toronto Monday night in the Allan cup semi-finals and again Wednesday. The Winner of ihis round will meet the Falcons of Winnipeg in the finals, tho first game of which will be played here Saturday night. On Monday night, March 29, the final game to decide .the winner of the Canadian championship and the winner -of the cup will be played. Indications are that Sud bury will be the contender against Winnipeg for the honors. OLD COUNTRY FOOTBALL LONDON, March 21.—(Canadian Press)—King George and 40,000 of Ills subjects witnessed England's defeat of Scotland in the Internationa' rugby game Saturday by two goal.', and one try to a dropped goal. Tht game was played at a tremendous pace and the decision was in the balance until a Quarter of an houi of the closo of the game. W. G. Davies again was largely responsible for the English victory clearing time and again when the heavy Scottish forwards were oi him. Nine out of ten matches constituting the international championship, have now been played, Tlu remaining game will be played between England and France in Dublir April ::o. At Glasgow the game between tlu Scottish and English league player! constituted a dress rehearsal for the international game at Sheffield April 10. The English players won LONDON, March 21.—The league matches gave an j opportunity of showing how the semi-finalists might make out. Huddersfield came decidedly best, out of the test a' Stockport. Aston Villa received t- surprise at home in their defoal of Blackburns, who were one goal behind at half tjmo. Chelsea likewise got a surprise when they could only draw against Sheffield Wednesday, who had luck on their side but deserved their points on defense work alone. Bristol although only able to draw against Wolverhampton, gave an impressive display which augurs well for next week's match at Huddersfield. Tho Burnley-Sutherland match proved one of tho best of the day The advantage of being at home was sufficient to give Burnley two points. Portsmouth did not seem to have a very formidable task against Swansea but the vanquished showed considerable ability.

One of his nine children all living, the eldest is 90, and all bis direct descendants in four genera,tions number more than 200. lie ;s in full onjoymenl et bis sight and all other senses, and excellent genera.! health, which lie iittributes lo outdoor living and temperate habits. It will nut he a I all surprising if Ilie society's investigation fully confirms thc old man's representations, fin* there have been in recent years several' ■A'Oll-auttiontlca.ted cases of men attaining almost as great an age. Thus in the latter part ol' 1014 thoro died at. San Franisco ..'n-pt, (1. 13, D. Diamond, who was born at Plymouth, Mass., IIS years bef ire. His records were so complete and convincing as to leave no doudt of this. A little earlier, in July of lhe same year, died William A.G. Unite, a noted English barrister, who was unquestionably near 104 years 'old. At that time thero was also living ai, Westerville, Neb., one Thomas Morris, a ma.n of Welsh ancostdry, 121 years of ago, Tbe oldest person of whom (hero is anything like credible record in this country was Klizuboth Tran- tham nf Murfreesboro, Tenn. who died in February, 1834, at the age of 154 years. She was born in Germany and came to America at the age of thirty years. When she was 65 she bore her only child, an unusual bit! by no mean's nnnroc.c.dent-- ed or unequalled case of ma tern Ily in advanced years. At the ago of 120 she became entirely blind, but twelvo years later regained vision almost as perfect as it had heen in her youth, and retained It unimpnrod until hor death. At tbe ago 'of 135 sho lost entirely all sense of taste, became unable to walk, a,nd much of tbe tirtie had to ho artificially warmed, even in* summer, to keep her body temperature from falling bc- low tin- vital limit. Thoro are many stories of American negroes, both in slavery and in freedom, living to extreme age, hut they are seldom so authenticated as to deserve credence, The. most authentic, of all is that, of Won tier Booker, a slave owned by Georgo Booker of Prince Edward county, Va. —thc grandfather ot the man of whom the late Honker T. Washington look his namo. Wonder was thus called because he was born when his mother was fifty-eight, and bis birth was regarded as a miraculous, He possessed exceptional menial and physical powers and these remained practically unimpaired until shortly before bis death, which occured at" the ago of 120. When as old as I HI he was aide to do a full day's work on his master's plantation. He died in 1811). Flora Thompson, another ileum ■slave who died at llnrb's Island, I'a., in 1808, was reputed to be Ji.0 years old, hut, proof of this was by no means convincing. During tho first quarter of the last century there Were reports of the deaths in the United States of nearly one hundred persons whoso ages ranged between 110 antl \2t>. AMERICAN HEALTH SHOWS IMPROVEMENT Dr. Dudley A. Sargent, the physical training experl finds that Am eric..!, girl* b«v» (ncvenued an inch In height and gained an average of ten pounds in weight, since the time of the World's Fair at Chicago, when he tabulated statistics relating to American physique. Stud cuts at men's colleges in the samo period have added nearly two inches to stature and nine pounds to weight. These figures confirm a popular impression of tbe .improvement of American physique, TJiq wonder will be as to how it has been accomplished as against the deleterious habits that were alleged lo be undermining the. health of lhe young. Thi' period in question almost exactly comprises the generation whoso addiction to late hours and improper dancing and cigarettes, an dwbose scandalously diaphanoous clothing as respects the young women of tlio species, were well known to all moral alarmists as saining their constitutions. It was tbe generation of the cabaret show and thc digestion- harming dinner-dance and the immodest and influenza-inducing decollete. Young America, was going tho pace with reckless disregard of morals antl Ileal th that evoked constant roproof. Yet here It is stronger in physique, and by lhat. token sounder in nerves. It is one of the mysteries. There are moro things In heaven and earth than are dreamed ef in the philosophy of lho censor, and perhops one of them is tho disposition of the human racq lo improve and progress without regard to sumptuary regulation. BRITISH FLEET IN THE BALTIC There can be no two opinions as to tbe mngjiitleent work accomplished by the British Daltic fleet, which returns home owing to the freezing of the Baltic.

Goods on view morning of salo. Terms—Cash W. CUTLER, Auctioneer Capt. Tom Best Gives Five Sunday Addresses in City; Work of Navy Taking for htw subject tho tniola tion from Kipling, "Lest Wo forget." Capt, Tom Best, the general score tary iu charge of Y.M.C.A. religion, work in Canada, made tin extremely interesting address tu Trinity Moth odist church-las; evening, one of five ho made during lhe bay. Prefacing bis remarks by saying that he might well "have chosen the scriptural text. ".Nol by might or power, but by thy spirit saith. tho 'Lord," Mr. Best said that though the war was over, there wero several important lessons that might be well remembered, from it. Speaking of the wonderful efforts of Canada in raising the first con tiugent of the Canadian Expedition ary Force at such abort notice, and thc just pride of Canadians in Can ada's achievements during the war, the speaker reminded his hearers that it was well not to forget ihat not only the first contingent bul all subsequent shipments of troops from Canada had boen accomplished by the British, without the loss of a single man. Tho same remarkable feat had been accomplished for Atts- tijalla, and abovo all ibe grand total] of 13,0011,000 fighting men bad been transported, undor tbo watchful care of the navy, In spile of tbe desperate efforts of tlie Germans, without the loss of a man. l\nolher thing it was well not to forget was the cutirage and bravery of t'lic men of the merchant marine, who had risked horrible death every timo they put lo sea, but many of whom, nevertheless; had signed on for, another voyage Immediately being saved from wrecks. Comingf slowly to his point in saying that his text might well have been, ''Not by might or power, but by My spirit," saith the' lord," the speaker paid an eloquent tribute to lho ^morale, magnificent courage, determination, and spirit of sacrifice of (be Allied troops during the lirst two yours of the war. He briefly outlined tlie situation and conditions surrounding tbe battle of the Marne; how tlie Central lowers liad gathered together tin musL iitnverful, rhe best equipped, and numerically the most formidable army over assembled in the annals of history] how lhe morale of the Belgians was broken and their army mado almost. Impotent from a fighting standpoint, bow tho half million available. In .he French army wer driven back, along with tbo handful of British troops sent over to assist in slaying tlio onward rush of the Germans; and I hen lold of tli' miracle of lhe Maine, lhe faltering and final retreat of thc Germans under the offensive of tbo Allies, when nothing but complete annihiln tion seomed to faco the latter. He himself was convinced that nothing short of divine Intervention won .the battle of tlie Marno for tbo Allies, a view which Earl Roberts and KHolipi.cr bad previously expressed. In conclusion bo said It was well nut to forget thai lhe obligations to those who returned from the war and to the 00,000 men who will never return, will nol: have been discharged until. every returned man has been properly rc-absorbod in -•ivil life, and adequate provision jVnu.de for tlie widows and orphans ol soldiers and sailors against unequal economic conditions. The clquent Y.M.C.A. speaker filled five engagements yesterday, addressing Si. Pauls congregation in lhe morning, tbe open forum at Trinity church; and the CAV.V.A. concert dlonce al the opera house in thc afternoon, and in the evening Trinity Srcgation, and tho Churchman's Club. ** „_n__M.

Retails Have Not Yet cepted Invitation of Men for Conference A general meeting1 of the Mountain Lumber Manufacturers' association is due to convene aL Calgary today, to consider various matters, one ol' which is lhe propaganda on the prairie criticising the mountain mills for selling their surplus lumber In the United States. Members of I lie association located along the Crow's Nest Pass early In the munlh issued a.virtual challenge to the prairie lumber dealers to show wheTo there was a shortage, and to slato their requirements for the current year so that tbe mills would have their requirements lor the current year so that the mills would have something to go on, for at the present timo the orders from the prairie are very light. The proposed conl'erencce was lo coincide "with the association's sessions at Calgary. If the Western Retail Dumber Dealers' association participates in lhe conference it will be forced lo explain bow the dealers are failing to send orders, if there is an actual shortage. If it stays away, it will be an admission that It his no case, local lumber manufacturers claim.
