if{Kti \\\rf^^m\o\i^ 'nr\U[) The Blind Geographer of Vichy HonlrU Vichy water is known all over (be civilized world, but liow many know that it U named after a very busy and beautiful city which, if you look at your map, yim can locate about fhe centre of France. Like many other mineral water?, originating in jSuVope, the output of these springs is oonlroUed by the state and the quality i i therefore guaranteed. This article, however, is not meant a.s au advertise- ment although, oa the other hand, one cannot refer to the place without men- tioning the waters which account for so much of its importance. When we drove into Vichy this past • unini<-r, we found the streets crowded with people and. vehicles â€" at first â- ight one would conjecture that some fete was being observed. We soon realizeil that we were entering one of the brightest places oa the Continent; life was passing before us in every form, some were here to benefit from the cure, others j^ere here to enjoy themselves. The mineral springs of Franc are of a varied type and contain properties to meet every therapeutic reiitiirement â€" German and Austrian springs are of one uniform type. Among the patients, who come to Vichy, are those seeking treatment for liver complaints, skin diseases, dia- betes and gout, and rheumatism. The hotels are magnificent and here we jnet the most fa.shionable people, saw the smartest gowns and watched the gayest dancing of all the twelve coun- tries we visited. Located In the midst of all this ac- tivity are various booths where one can drink the water or have a recep- tacle lilled. These booths are attend- ed by neatly dressed girls who are clad in long, white smocks and have a while cap covering their hair. The water has a peculiar taste â€" one of my group made a face and described it as like a combination of lish salts and dirty water; why such a comparison she alone knew. There is plenty of demand and the uniformed attendants are kept busyâ€" the water is provided without any charge. Who wuilld think that in sucli a place, with gay shops, bands playing and all kinds of excitement, that we should be regaled with a description of Canada by a poor blind man on a street corner? Outside of the busy section ami in a little corner of a square, stood this kindly faced old man. In a roped-oft'. triangular space around his feet were hundreds of â- tones â€" different sizes, colours and shap.'s. There was no apparent order to tWs collection, although irregular little paths ran through the plot and, surmounting the stones, a varying in- tervals, were the flags of all the na- tions. It was this latter feature that attracted my attention and as I stop- ped to e.tamine the peculiar layout, the blind man sensed the presence of a possible benefactor and, in a mono- lone, began to recite, in French, names of important places. He soon learned, however, that we were English speak- ing and, quickly accommodating him- Learn Crepe Paper Flower Making By a New Simplified. Inexpensive Method.

"No! no: no!"' said my companion, "we are not from the United States, we.aie from Canada." "Oh! Canada- English," said the blind man, and stretching out his arm, over a section of his little piece of ground, he pointed out the Union Jacks and gave us the names of the countries of the British Empire, their capitals and many of their principal features. Looking at the arrangement of the stones it would be almost impossible for an observer to make head or tail of the scheme, but the blind man knew and, with his stick, made his way over to the proper location and picked out the correct flags. We could not. nor did we try to, stop the flow of his recital for some time: finally we did get him back to the realization that we were Cana- dians as we had a desire to plumb the extent of his knowledge. We were im- mediately rewarded by i\ description of onr own country that would have been a credit to most of the scholars in our schools, ile knew the capital to be Ottawa; he knew the provinces, important places, railways and boun- daries; he knew onr connection in the Empire and our historical connection with l-''rance. He did make some minor mistakes, it is true, but it was a mar- vellous demonstration of concentra- tion and memory and he seemed to thoroughly enjoy his occupation. When we first stopped, there was only one curious loiterer, but, human nature being the same wherever you go. a group soon collected and, while they couldn't follow^ the conversation, we could delect the whispered '1' anglais." passed from one to the other while tlie exhibition, in our be- half, was in progress. It was a most interesting experience; an une.\pected and unforgettable touch with home, in a place where one would least antici- pate such an occurrence. It was with great difticulty that we were able to break away from our blind narrator- he wa.s most anxious to impart further knowledge to. what he considered, was a sympathetic audience. Above the bright lights, fascinating shops, gay promenaders and the glittering hotel where we stayed, this one circum- stance stands out as an appealing luimaii incident. Next week 1 shall relate another strange meeting â€" this time in South- ern Hungary, at a place called .Nauy- kaniska.

A Quebec provincial law forbids married women making bank deposits without the consent of their husbands. Section 95 states that deposits from persons suffering such legal disability under provincial laws, may deposit only up to a maximum of $2,000 The Canadian .Alliance for Women's Votes presented a brief to the commission when it sat in Montreal, calling atten- tion to the fact that uo special restric- tion was placed upon Quebec married women depositing in post office sav- ings banks. They asked that the re- striction be removed from the bank act, and the commission recommended that the section be amended accord- ingly. The text of the report ontliis point follows: At Montreal a special point attect- ing the rights of married women in the Province of Quebec was brought to our notice by the Canadian Alliance for Women's Votes. Section 95 of the Bafik Act which authorizes a bank to receive deposits from, and to repay deposits to, persons under legal dis- ability provides in the third subsection as follows: â€" "If the person making any such de- posit could not, under the law ot the Province where the deposit is made, depo.sit and withdraw money in and from a bank without this section, the total amount to be received from such )>ersou on deposit shall not at any time exceed the sum of two tiiousaiid dollars." As, under the law of the Province of Quebec, a married woman cuuld not. apart from section 95. deposit or with- draw money without her husband's consent, the effect of the subsection just quoted is that in this Province a married wonuin cannot without her husbaml's consent deposii more than *2.000 in a bank. Apparently under the Dominion Post tMlice It'glsltition a married woman is Yie'ii not to rnlamlty. hut face her hodlv. Virgil.

RHEUMATKMGOTHIM 80-years-oId Pianist is Relieved by Kruschen Aitiiough old awe has not yet kept this man from his occupation as a pianist, rheumatism did threaten to do so recently. "Two years ago," he writes, "I was suddenly taken with rheumatism, all down my left arm. I tried many things â€" all to no purpose. I then commenced taking a half-lea.-poonful of Kruschen Salts every morning, and soon felt beneflt. My arm. which was painful and nearly useless, to my as- tonishment is now after a few weeks' treatment, quite better. I am more than pleased, as 1 am a pianist, and playing made matters worse. I am just entering my SOth year, and am in good health."â€" G. L. A.. The six mineral salts of Kruschen have a direct effect uiwn the whole bloodstream, neutralizing uric acid, which is the recognized cause of rheu- matism. They also restore the elim- inating organs to proper working order, and so prevent coustipaHon. thereby checking the further formation of uric acid and other body poisons wiilch un- dermine the health.
