Rooms that are too dark should have curtains that keep out as little of the light as possible and, on the other hand, when there is too much light, this defect may be modified by chosing hangings of heavier weight and texture. Color also is a decisive factor. Bear in mind that yellow produces light, while black absorbs it. Violet, blue, and red are nearer black and also ahsorb color rather than reflect it. The plainer and simpler the back- ground, the more striking in color Staining Old Floors If you have an old flooring in your home you may revive it to a great extent hy giving it a staining treatment, To do this is not such a task as many people believe, but it requires time, Three days should he planned for the length of time each floor will require for the pro- cess of staining. First the flor should be thorough- ly scrubbed. Use a strong soap pow- der, and a little ammonia added to the water will help dissolve the old paint or varnish on the floor. The floor must be dry before the next step. Wrap a brick with a sheet of coarse, sandpaper and rub it over the floor to remove the remaining paint, until the surface is even. Be careful to sweep up the sandpaper dust, then wipe off the floor with a dry cloth. At ahy good paint shop you will he able to purchase the foundation paint known sometimes as filler. This is applied to the floor next, smoothing it evenly with a two inch brush. nermost corner and work gradually toward the door, otherwise one may find himself standing on an oasis of dry floor completely surrounded by wet paint. The foundation paint must be very dry before the final stain is applied. If the floor has dried during the night, wipe it off once again with The "Liftup" a patented in- vention with non-slip elastie inside belt, gently supports the ahdomen and is very for use after an dominal incision. fective in relieving those physical ailments from which many women suffer.

Within the Abbey's ancient walls, He sleeps in perfect peace With the illustrious dead, While in the hallowed silence The living round him tread. Sleep on, sleep on, In sweet repose, O Warrior of ours. We revere thy name And our prayers "are the scent of flowers. Sleep on, sleep on, Brave warrior, Thy battle has been won, And a greater Marshal beckons To receive you as a son. Painful though the flame of battle, Many a wound and many a scar, Thy soul has glided homeward Unto a better land afar. Beyond the Styx, Those spirits mingle, Noble warriors, one and all.

TRANSFORMATION OF CANTON THE Probably no other large city in the world is being transformed as completely and as rapidly as Can- ton, When I was there in the early part of 1919, reports Rev. A. E. Armstrong, Associate 'Secretary of | the Preshyterian Foreign Mission Board, the ancient wall was still | standing. There was only one wide! street--the Bund, or road, along the river front and through the foreign settlement--and it was short. As is common throughout the densely po- pulatea section of China, large tracts of the city's valuable land were occu- pied by graves. This year (1922) I found nothing left of the wall but a picturesque bit wisely left as a relic, the broad strip of vacated ground being used for streets and modern buildings. Twen- ty-five miles of streets, seventy to one hundred feet wide, had been built and paved, and twenty-five miles more were under construction --all laid out in directions that would best serve the great metropolis of South China. A boulevard drive 150 feet in width was planned to extend six miles from the heart of the city to a beautiful hill in the suburbs. When I expressed my amazement tc the Mayor, Mr. Sun Foh (son of the famous Sun Yat Sen) and re- marked on the many years that would be required to achieve such vast improvements in the streets of Mrs. Dale Could [J Hardly Climb \_ = The Stairs "I want to tell what Tanlac has done for me for the benefit of oth- ers," said Mrs. John Dale, 65 Cath- erine St. South, Hamilton, Ont. "About three years ago I began to suffer from rheumatism, which kept getting worse until something over a year ago, when I found myself in almost constant pain. At times my arms up to my elbows became so swollen and painful I couldn't raise my hands above my head, and my fingers were so stiff I could secarce- ly hold a coffee pot to pour out the coffee. "I could hardly go up a flight of stairs on account of the stiffness in | my muscles. I became s0 nervous the noises made Dy the children playing about almost made me fran- tic. No medicine did me any good, and I just seemed to be constantly growing worse. "Seeing so many fine statements in the papers about Tanlac, I dedided to get a bottle and see if it would do me any good. My rheumatism got better with the first bottle, and, now that I have finished my second bottle, the last trace of it is gone. My nervousness is gone, tao, and 1 am so happy over being free from pain I can't fully express it."
