' Dyspepsia. Dyspepsia is not a disease, but a symptom; therefore there is no sever- reign remedy for dyspepsia, and in treating it the physician must always go behind the indigestion and find out to what disease or what condition of , the system it points. That does not mean that he never gives remedies to aid digestion or that he cannot sometimes sometimes relieve the dyspepsia without having ascertained, "its cause, but only that he must not make the mistake of thinking that dyspepsia is a disease in itself and that there is any one medicine that will cure all forms of it. In the few cases in which no cause can be found to account for weak digestion, digestion, physicians call it "functional dyspepsia," but there is -- last word in home baking Used by millions Patients having ondfe need «Anurie " : phe percentage of egg yield deter- at Dr. Pieree's lnvaliis' Hotel, have re- ! j more than anything else the S eatedlv sent back for more.

In the Prairie Provinces, there is considerable shrunken wheat available. Shrunken wheat, if it is dry, is as good a poultry food as wheat fit for milling purposes. Care must be taken that it is not damp or otherwise spoiled. Shrunken wheat alone, if there is no other grain, will answer for the grain feed.

The discomfort can be relieved by taking bicarbonate of soda in glass of water half an hour after eating eating and by frequent meals, or little "snacks" between meals. But that remedy only puts off the evil day anc blinds the sufferer to the danger he is running. The only permanent relief comes from a change of habits.

We have reason, therefore, to congratulate congratulate ourselves upon the recep- combatants in the present Pillages Ottoman Shrines and Turks Eat Dust Before Him. The London Times has received the following letter on the subject of the Kaiser's rapacity, of which a further instance is furnished: When in Palestine a few years ago I visited, at Damascus, the tomb Of Saladin, the gi^eat Saracen commander commander in the time of the Crusades. The Kaiser had been there some years previously, paying his devoirs at the shrine of one who had defeated an English king, and he observed that the cedar sarcophagus (of inestimable value intrinsically and artistically) was unworthy of so great a hero, and that he would provide a more befitting. befitting. tomb.

'Love" The following is a little story which appeared in "a recent issue . of the Churchman: One of the bombs which fell on a town in the North Midlands of England England exnloded over a little Wesleyan chapel i00 years old. The building was -completely wrecked. Only one wall remains standing, and on that wall is painted in decorated i;ed and blue lettering the text, "ThisN^om- raandment I give unto you, that x^e love one another." The words ca; be read fifty yards away, and they Were murmured by thousands of people people who came to gaze at the tumbled pile of bricks and woodwork which sprawled over the site of the chapel. eighteen to twenty inches above floor, has glass and cotton, one-third glass to two-thirçls cotton. Make these window's so that they can be opened up every day if desired. Shut up all holes in every part of the house that might cause a draught. Double line the north side so as to give the hens greater protection while on roosts. If the house is inclined to be damp, more ventilation helps. It is also a good plan to"put in a straw loft. If this cannot be arranged, because of the nature of the roof, tack slats below below the rafters then stuff straw in between. See that the house is perfectly perfectly clean and free from mites, then get the pullets in at once. Do not overcrowd. Give an average average of five square feet of floor space to each bird of the heavy varieties arid four to the lighter or Leghorn type. If there are too many pullets for the available space cull out the poorer mes. Fifty pullets with sufficient accommodation accommodation will give more eggs than sixty in crowded quarters.

Resourcefulness practised in the trenches does not desert our heroes when they " leave the army, says a London Exchange. A lance-corporal of the Kensington Battalion, London Regiment, had his right leg amputated in France, and later was fitted with an artificial limb. When going away for the week-end the other day he met a friend. "It is unnecessary for me to carry a bag when I go'a way now," he remarked. "I have packed all the luggage required required in my artificial leg. It holds a hair brush, bottle of hair oil and shaving requisite's very well."

This of itself is a notable mark of progress towards a more rational point of view, for it implies the relinquishment relinquishment of Germany's "world power" foolishness. When peace is considered in the light of the world's welfare, rather than as an opportun-: ity for extending frontiers, there is ground for hope that sanity is beginning beginning to assert itself. Germany, we all know, has been exasperatingly slow in coming 'to this, nor does she now assume it with such indications of whole-heartedness as- might be wished ; but that she has. come to it at all is certainly very encouraging, encouraging, as it shows that neutral opinion is having its effect. Chastened and "cuffed" for her high ambitions with which she boast- ingly threw down the gauntlet to Europe in the start, she is now ready to listen tQ wisdom. But it should not be assumed that because of the utterances of these two leading men, that the war "is to cease. Both sides are convinced that the war must be waged to the bitter end, the Entente powers expect victory, and are preparing to join with the neutral world in preserving peace for the future, future, at aiyhazards ; while the Central Powers, still professing à hope of victory, victory, are preparing to join with the neutral world in preserving peace against what they deem British agr gressions.
