Another reason for dizziness has to do with a Wonderful part of the body near the ear and without which none of us could sit: upright, much less stand, though few people have ever heard or it. This organ. which used to be thought to have something to do with hearing, really controls our bal- ance. In some people it is affected by disease, and these people constantly suffer from dizziness and a feeling that everytliing is spinning round and round. ` A- .......... l\r\- \...-...... ..._ ,..... ..4._|._ A Mediterranean Phenomenon. Mirages are common in many parts of the World, such phenomena being familiar to travelers in the tropics as well as in the arctic regions and on deserts just the same as upon the wa- ters of lakes, seas and oceans. The most peculiar of the whole list of at- mospheric illusions is that species of mirage called the ram morgana, which is peculiar to that portion of the Medi- terranean sea which lies otl` the coast of Culabria between Italy and Sicily. Exhibitions of the fata morgana are the most fantastic spectacles imagina- ble. If a city is presented to View some of the buildings are seen stand- ing in their natural positions, while those adjoining may be standing at every conceivable angle or are com- pletely inverted.

L\I\.II.l\Ju As every one knows, we can make ourselves dizzy and so think every- thing is spinning round by whirling around ourselves several times in one direction. This disturbs theyorgun of balance. and this disturbance gives us the feeling. It you turn round the other way you put things right by re- storing the original state of affairs within the hulanc-in:._: n -gun. The name for the feeling that things are spinning round is vertigo, nnd "vert" simply means turn. Entirely By.

HERE are two reasons for the necessity of persistence in adv_ertising.~One of them is the ease with which the human mind forgets. and the other is the necessity of teaching the good points of your products a\ little at a time. It is a general experience, not only in advertising. but in all the different phases of business. that the concern which does not constantly remind its customers of its existence soon has no existence oli which to remind them. Now, Mr. Merchant, if you would have the readers of this paper as customers, you must not only let them know you are in business, but keep persistently the merits of your store and goods before them, letting them know of the ar rival of every novelty, as well as the more staple lines. be sides keeping them posted as to prices. one horse for a year, and that the same ve acres would produce nearly enough food for two people. If 50,000 Canadian farmers each replaced one horse with a Ford, 250,000 acres would be added to the Nation's source of food supply and enough extra food made available to feed 100,000 people. IT HAS been estimated that ve acres of land are required to maintain Just think what a great service this means to the country at the present time and the benet to the farmers from the sale of food produced on this acreage. A Ford car also saves the farmer a week or more of valuable time each year, which can be used for further productive work. The Ford travels three times as fast as a horse and rig--costs less to run and keep, and is far easier to take care of. With labor so scarce and high priced, time means money, so do not delay in getting your Ford. Persis fence ullnost uu- ` I)o11't vhinzz 911. Al. II. III elected uhuirnmn collegiate lmm-J.
