My appetite is splendid now and I can eat anything I want and as much as I-want without the slightest touch of indigestion. My strength and energy have returned.

The Literary Digest has for some weeks 'been offéting prizes for the best reasons why teachers 'should have more pay. In a late issue it an- nounces the first week's prize in the supplementary contest: for Canadian teachers has been awarded to Miss Greta T. Bidlake, teacher in the ru- ral school at Upper Coverdale, N.B., who contributed this: "The teacher--my mission is holy. I prescribe for the mind and body; battle against heredity and environ- ment; build statesmen," patriots, thinkers, artists, In return I receive a pittance; I am' forced to struggle against discouragement, live in in- ferior boarding houses, and live on bare necessities."

No matter what indlicements are offered, nothing is to be gained by making a start without preparation. The boy who is so eager to be earn- ing that he gives up the intention of getting an education, the young busi- ness man who goes into a new enter- prise without first having investigat- ed it, the girl who lets herself be swept into a position of responsibi- lity without taking steps to prepare herself, are all guilty of the same folly.
