I could not get about at all. I could not wash my face oreomh my hair. All this had to be done for me. At the beginning of this year I started taking Kruschen Salts-every morning and I am pleased to say I am quite well now and able to see to my .home and can go out in all kinds .of weather without it affecting me.”â€"-Mrs. l’.

A, Devinel A reorganization of the work of the North Land Pioneer Tells About Japan Everyont in the North knows A. S. Stevens, of Cochrane. Englehart and Temagaml, with which places he has been connected for a great many years. having conducted hotels and cafes at these centres and otherwise being con- nected with the progress and develop- ment of the North. In an interview last week Mr. Stevens gave interesting facts about Japan and its people, the interview being of special interest at this time. The Sudbury Star gives the following account of the interview:â€" “The progress of events in the Far East is 'being followed with keen in- terest by Arthur Stevens, well-known citizen of the district, who 40 years ago served with the British fleet on the China station, and who has intimate personal knowledge of many of the towns and cities in China and Japan mentioned in despatches from the Orient. “Mr. Stevens, in the course of a chance conversation on a T. 82, N. 0 train on Monday of this week, said he had a very high refitrd for the Japanese people, based on his experience of them during his period of service in the year? 3 1887 to 1889, inclusive. He had found them honest and trustworthy, he de-g clared, and scrupulously clean. Incl-i dentally, Mr. Stevens is a member of the Masonic Order, and his mother lodge is that located in Yokohama, Ja- pan, where he joined while in the navy. Wants to Go Back “He has never been back to the scene of his more yquthful career, Mr. Stevens said, although he hoped to visit the Orient again some day. Speaking of the passion for cleanli- ness which he found animated the Japanese people, Mr. Stevens recalled that, when he was in Yohchama, there were public baths on many of the streets. and that it was customary for citizens of even the humbler classes to bathe at least twice daily. Five baths cost one cent. Mr. Stevens said, and Japanese people of all ages and both sexes mingled together in the pools, in the nude. “In the summer time. these baths were without windows, while as a pro- tectYon against winter winds shades of rice paper are fitted into the empty frames. Mr. Stevens remembers that it was customary in those days for EurOpeans to have their shoes remov- ed and checked by girls stationed at the doors of the stores, sandals being , handed out for walking on the matting floors. As the customer left the build- ing. the sandals were removed by the girls, who then put on and laced up the boots of the visitors, all this in the interests of cleanliness. A. S.

He visited them all with the fleet. At that time, Shanghai was a much smaller city than it is to- day, although there were then the dif- ferent foreign settlements there. Just before Mr. Stevens went to China, the first rahway line, from Shanghai to Woosung, a distance of 12 miles, had been built and had been torn up and thrown in the river, because the Chin- ese thought the advent of the iron horse was an invention of the devil. at! O U G H 5 § BUS'KLEY'S XTURE “Dock Labourers in China at that time received wages of ten cents a. day, according to Mr. Stevens. and as values were based on the Mexican dollar, with its equivalent of 50 cents Canadian money. the rates of pay were approxi- mately a nickel per man. But living costs were cheap. It was custom rJé'x'nefi from the fleet who went shop- up to 70 years of ageâ€"to act as interâ€" preter and protection generally against the wiles of the merchant.

Mining in Canada 1 in Good Condition Report of Dominion Department of Mines Says Outlook in Decidediy Favourable. and Explains Why This is so. The mining industry has never been in a better position that at praent to take advantage of any upturn in in- dustrial conditions. according to the annual report of the Dominion Depart- ment of Mines, for the fiscal year end- March 31. 1931. With its produc- tve capacity extensively increased by the development of new ore reserves and the extension of known reservez. and by the eXpendlture of enormous sums in the erection of milling and metallurgical plants the industry has so improved its position during a period of slackness that. there need be no hesitancy in stating that the outlook is distinctly favourable. A reorganization of the work of the Geological Survey resulted in a forma- tion of a Pleistocene Geology, Water Suppy and Borings Division. The sur- vey has already carried out a number of investigations in the Prairie Pro- vinces in an attempt to obtain adequate sources of water supply for various urban and agricultural centres. These and other investigations will be con- tinued by the new division. A sharp increase in investigational work is reported by the Fuel Research and the Ore Dressing and Metallurgi- cal Divisions. With the addition of large scale equipment the service ren- der-ed by the Fuel Research Division to the coal industry has been largely extended and investigations carried out jointly with commercial firms have in- dicated the possibility of a considerable quantity of Canadian coal being used as a reptiacement fuel for imported coals. The work of the Ore Dressing and Metallurgical Division was facili- tated by the occupation of the new Ore Dressing Laboratories. This division is coals. The work of the Ore Dressing and Metallurgical Division was facili- tated by the occupation of the new Ore Dressing Laboratories. This division is also keeping in touch with iron and steel industry. and it is hoped that similar assistance can eventually be given to this industry as is now afford- ed the mineral industry in connection with ore treatment. Efforts to extend the domestic market for the products of Canadian quarries occupied much of the attention of the Mineral Resource Division and con- siderabie success in this direction is re- ported Exptriments car1ied out in the labo1atnries of the Ceramics Division and at an industrial plant in New Brunswick on colour development and colour and quality to compete with spe- factory results in p1oducing brick of colour and quanity to compete with spe- cial high-grade face brick now largely imported. Experiments also showed that a very good grey colour could be obtained with a clay occurring in Nova Scotia. The development of this de- posit is now actively under way and already about a quarter of a million bricks have been manufactured from this raw material. Four Orders of Council were passed during the year to provide assistance to the mines in the form of reduced freight charges on the shipment of western Canadian coals and briquettes to points in Manitoba where imported coals ordinarily can be sold at lower prices than Canadian coals. The Do- minion Fuel Board, of which Dr. Charles Camsell, Deputy Minister of Mines, is chairman, is charged with the administration of these Govern- ment measures. Capies of the report may be obtained by application to the Deputy Minister, Department of Mines, Ottawa. Simooe Reformerrâ€"The ccunty coun- cil of Simcoe is a. very impartial body. When the solicitors advised that they could not make any cuts in the pay of officials the councillors, rather than show any discrimination, left their own indemnity undisturbed. High-Grade Samples from Week’s Run of the Press Gore Bay Recorderzâ€"In nine months this year there have been 1,234 bank failures in the United States, the total having been swelled just recently by a series of pre-Christmas failures with millions of public money involved. There is no room for argument as to the superiority of the Canadian bank- ing system. St. Thomas Times-Journaizâ€"An- nouncernent is already made that ar- rangements have been completed by some 200 American broadcasting! stations to be in operation during tbs political conventions in June. These broadcasts go on nearly all day and evening. and as the big stations wil’ carry these programmes there will be little else to be gotten from the net- works while the talk-fests are in pro- gress.

As Canada becomes more and more a resort for tourists there will be more and more interest in such things as the sporting spirit of game fish. Accord- ingly, there should be special interest in what Government departments are attempting to increase the fame of the sporting fish of the country. “Even though the fish in Canadian sea waters and in the lakes. rivers and streams throughout the Dominion are considered as factious as any in the world, the Canadian Government De- partment of Fisheries is not satisfied. An official bulletin states that experi- ments designed to produce improved ytpes of certain sporting fish are being made by the Fish Culture Division of the Fisheries Department. These ex- periments in cross-breeding have al- ready disclosed some promising results, particularly in the development of hy- brid brown trout. Working to Produce More Sporty Fish in Canada “Hybrids developed by crossing brown trout and Atlantic salmon have shown greater growth than brown trout of the same age, and it is expected that the crosses will show somewhat in- creased gameness and other improvements in be manifested. While the work of the Canadian Government Fish Culture Division is largely devoted to the maintenance of the commercial stocks of such fish as salmon, Whitefish and pickerel, the angling resources of Canada are so im- portant, from the tourist and recrea- tional standpoints, that more atten- tion is now being given each year to sport fish propagation and the stocking of angling waters. It is as part of this phase of its work that the experiments in connection with hybrid trout have been undertaken.
