The round trip to Jamaica occupies 24 days, whilst for those who cannot afford this time, the Bermuda Cruise of 11 days is available. _ All staterooms on these modern liners, which were built especially for ists the Canadian Nationél Steam- ships have arranged their summer schedules in such a manner as to pro- vide an attractive variety of cruises 5?

The first monument will be in memory of Sieur de Laviolette foun- der of the city of Three Rivers. De La Verendrye, celebrated explorer who discovered the Rock Mountains, will also be honored with a monu- ment in his name.

Three Rivers-Three monuments will be unveiled here during the tercentenary celebration this sum- mer, it was announced recently. This situation calls for regulation. Clearly there is responsibility some- where for the death of six persons. Highway fatalities already are so high as to make the public road one of the most unsafe places in the world. Sooner or later, the whole question will have to be thrashed out. It it appears imperative that freight be moved by motor vehicles, some sort ot private right ot way, or toll road should be provided. The public has some right on its own highway which private interests are bound to respect. --Schenectady Union-Star; Three Monumepts For Three] Rivers To the perils ot the road have been added the perils ot the big freighters, Huge bulks, carriers ot heavy ton- nage, they loom ahead of the driver who approaches trom the rear with such enormous size that he has no way of seeing the road ahead. This is particularly true when a highway freight train is parked at the side of the road. In that fatal wreck at El- yria, Ohio, the driver of the bug sought to. pass the parked freighter, which was his right; but he could not see tar enough ahead to decide whether the road was clear, and when he could see, he had not enough time to out in ahead ot the parked machine and resume his own lane. It six persons were fatally injured and fourteen badly hurt in a railway collision, would there not be a con- siderable rumpus raised? Yet the six who were killed in the Ohio highway collision when a bus, trying to pass a parked freight truck, ran head-on into another truck are just as dead as if they had been killed in a railroad tsmash-up. Kruschen is effective. against rheu- matism because its six salts stimu- late the liver and kidneys to regular action. When these organs are work- ing efficiently, they rid the body of excess uric acid. And when uric acid goes, those aches and pains go, too. Here is a letter that goes to prove that even rheumatism of long stand- mg can be relieved by the right treat- ment:--. ' - "I have been a sufferer from rheumatism tor some 12 to 14 years now and have foolishly taken no steps to relieve it. My particular form of rheumatism seemed to take the use out of my hands and knees. The latter would suddenly give way and let me down unless a chair or table were handy, All at once, I determin- ed to give Kruschen Salts a trial--a bona fide trial--and now I feel a re- created being. I can scarcely believe that so short a time ago I was hobbl- ing_along witlra tiiclr."-HMrs.) M.

'Passing Three Rivers we get a glimpse of the city and the great piles of pulpwood which feeds the paper mills for which the place is The shore on both sides or the St. Lawrence, is dotted with French Ca- nadian farmhouses.

The River This imaginary trip is leaving the port of Montreal; in many ways it is more attractive than the port of While this is going on, the tugs, that will draw the ship away from the pier, have quietly tied themsel- ves alongside. The siren blows, there are last farewells and slowly but sur- ely the space between ship and the shore grows wider and wider until it is able to dispense with the assist- ance of the' tugs and oroteed under her own power. Suddenly there is the sound of a bugle and visitors are warned to go ashore; the orchestra plays on the deck, there is an air of tense excite- ment and the deckhands take their places in preparation for hauling in the immense gangway. Just at this time bell boys come around with bas- kets full of rolls of brightly coloured paper ribbon. These are taken by the passengers who, holding one end of the roll, throw the string ashore and very soon the side of the ship is gay with multi-eoloured strands stretch- ing from ship to shore. l The Port On arrival at the place of embar- kation, the huge shed beside the ship provides a scene of bustle and activ- ity. On the dock, near the gangway is the booth where tickets re sur- rendered, your name is checked with the passenger list-then you walk up the sloping gang way and your feet tread the boards of your temporary home for the next few days. A stew- ard meets you in the square and you are escorted to your room. But one cannot stay there; there is too much to see on deck, passengers arriving, farewells and greetings being exch- anged between those on deck and on shore, luggage being lifted on board and perhaps, in the bow, a car susp- ended on high before being loweredl into the hold. Sometimes there are months of preparation and planning; just as often decisions are quickly made and, before one is aware of it almost, sai- ling day arrives and the journey ab- road commences. AN OCEAN TRIP A voyage overseas is still a great adventure; it may be-and often is --the realization of the ambition of a lifetime. Fortunate indeed is the person whose dreams come true. Airdrie Scotland, has petitioned the Government to restore unemploy- ment relief projects to the 1931 lev.. el. Nature played a bad trick on the Banff staff in putting the beetle lar- vae into the pond, which is one in which certain experiments in the feeding of young trout have been in progress. Every precaution is taken to keep such ponds free of anything that would be injurious to the young fish but this particular pond at Banff, formed by flooding a slough, is especially hard to protect and Na- ture eluded viligance and slipped the larvae in. The superintendent of the fish hatchery operated at Banff by the ‘Dominion Department of Fisheries was watching baby trout in a large hatchery pond when, lo and behold, he saw a two-and-a-quarter-inch larva of the diving beetle Dytiscus, dart along in the water with a fin- gerling longer than itself held firmly in its mandibles! That happened to be the only case actually observed in which fry or fingerlings were capr, tured by the beetles but there is rea-l son to believe that there were numer-l ous other instances in which the little fish were destroyed. I Fish eat beetle larvae, and the beetles' themselves, but apparently the rule sometimes works the other way, too, if the fish in pond or stream are small and the larvae are big. That means one more to be ad- ded definitely to the perils which en- compass the fish in their baby days, and it is probable that the beetles take quite J. toll. There had been sus.. picion of the beetles before but an incident at Banff, Alberta,- last sum- mer confirmed suspicion.

It has preserved its French char.. acteristics and the narrow winding streets, the fortifications, the histor- ical landmarks never fail to intrigue lovers of antiqmrgzy As we pass under the bridge and look toward the towering masts ot the ship, it seems an impossible feat to avoid striking the masts. Some wags even go so far as to assure nervous passengers that the masts are collapsible. On we go and, even to the most experienced the illusion, that the mast will strike the bridge, is always "interesting. From every vantage point passengers watch the approach and, in spite ot their faith in the success- ful passage, they breathe a sigh ot re- lief when, serenely and majestically the tall masts pass under the immense lacework of steel. 1 The Gibraltar of the New World Orf our outward journey, we do not put into the dock at Quebec, but lie out in the stream until the tenders bring passengers, mail and goods.

One ot the greatest thrills, to be ex- ‘perienced is the optical illusion creat-' ed when the ship passes under the) Quebec Bridge. This structure sur- passes in magnitude. and boldness any cantilever bridge ever erected. Three attempts were made to make this con- necting link between the north and south shores, the first two failing ac- companied by great loss of lite. Fin- ally it was finished and opened by the Prince of Wales in 1919. The total length of the structure is 3240 feet, the height of the steelwcrk above high water, 150 feet and the estimat- ed cost 15 million dollars---these are but a few ot the figures. Eggs Must Be Graded ASKS MORE RELIEF That operators are quite consistent in their good or bad driving is shown by a study in which records in a mo- tor-vehicle bureau were related to insurance company records. It is pos- sible from a man's past record to cal- culate his expectation of accidents in the future. Thus it a driver has had "Noah was a great navigator." "Yes, he was a sailor of the first water!” Habitual The habits, characteristics and per- sistency of these accident addicts have been studied. It has been shown that they can be readily identified, isolated and cured before they have proceeded tar in their course of des. tions, administrative control and pub- lie safety education have not st1fficed because the importance of this prim- ary fact has not been fully grasped. Instead, an enormous expenditure ot money and effort has been lavished on the good drivers. Until administrative officers of states and communities wake up to the presence of these accident ad, diets, identify them, and take appro- priate action with them, we must ex- pect deaths and injuries in undimin- ished numbers. a clear record for the last tour years the probability that he will get into trouble this year is very small; but it he has had four or more accidents within the last four years the chances that he will be involved in at least one accident this year are three to one. Even it he does have a single ac- cident, he is still quite properly rec- ognized as a "good" driver. So, it we regard the 63 per cent. who had no accidents in five years as A-1 and the drivers who had onlv one acci- dent as good, we have no less than 87 per cent. who are good operators. Bad Drivers So much on the right side of the ledger. What is on the opposite .page? It most drivers are good dri- lvers, why all the accidents? Why is it apparently inevitable that 30,000 of us will be killed and a million more injured in automobile accidents tit1Iy ing this year of grace 1934' and dur. 3ing each year thereafter? It is be. 'cause about 13 per cent. of the dri- vers are accident addicts. These dvi.. vers have accidents, not last year on- ly, not this year only, but almost every year. They will keep on hav- ing accidents indefinitely, unless their driving improves, or they are taken oft the road, or they kill themselves. "Unless their driving improves!" It has been demonstrated that most ot these accident addicts-the “un- lucky" 13 per cent.-can be cured of their unsafe ways. It is not necessary permanently to refuse them the right to drive. It is necessary to organize the oversight, re-education and follow. up ot this small but dangerous min- ority. Another 24 per cent. had but one each. Now a man who can drive a car for five years under all kinds of conditions without having a report- able accident is certainly entitled to be classed as A No. 1. Walter V, Bingham, in NY. Times The vast majority of drivers rarely, it ever, have accidents. A study was made ot the complete records, of 5,000 men to see how many good, medium and bad drivers there were. No less than 63 trer cent. of these motorists came through a period ot five years without any accidents at all.

Blinde, railway mail clerk of Edmonton, was given three years in the penitentiary when he appeared in court at North Battle- ford. Simple goitre could be practically eliminated, however, Dr. Sinclair bel- ieved, by providing for its control during the vital periods of foetal life, pregnancy, and around the age of pu- berty. At these times prevention should be the task of the individual physician, he said, but added that pre- vention during childhood and adoles- cence should be a public health mea- sure. [ Year Per Letter . Mail Theft Term That Depressed Feeling Is Largely Liver Extreme varieties of goitre, and diseases like tuberculosis and syphilis are associated with or are the out- come of simple goitre, Dr. Sinclair continued Besides these conditions many physical and mental conditions result from simple goitre. These are evidenced in cretins, (dwarfs) deaf- mutes, mental and physical dctieiene- ies and subnormal and backward chil- dren and the insane. You are "feeling bunk" simply be- cause your liver. isn't pouring its daily two pounds of liquid bile into your bowels. Digestion and elimin- ation are both hampered, and your entire system ts being poisoned. What you need is a liver stimu- lant. Something that goes farther than salts, mineral water, cil, lax- ative candy or chewing- gum or roughage which only move the bowels-ignoring the real cause of trouble, your liver. Reading a paper on goitre preven- tion Dr. Sinclair stressed the need of remedies for thyroid disease in ord, er to prevent human suffering in the province. The thyroid gland produc- es thyroxin an active principle of which is a staple compound of iodine, essential for mental and phsical dev- elopment. Iodine is especially neces- sary required for foetal life, during the age of adolescence and by the pre- gnant mother, he said. A diseased th- yroid will interfere with the proper supply of iodine, and abnormal cond- ditions will result. Take Carter's Little Liscr Pills. Purely vegetable. No harsh calomel (mercury). Safe.
