TORONTO OFFICE: {Bond Building, ale oloz. 1. i H FRIDAY, JULY 8, 1927 i FUTILE When millions are paying monthly instal- 'ments on library sets they never wanted, the anpouncement that the federal government of D. Tresidder, representative. the United States offers to teach salesmanship to book Agents is not a little disturbing, This enterprise in education may spread to Canada if we are not careful, And nobody who has had an encounter with a book agent will agree the course is wasted effort, The impression is quite universal that most if not all book sellers, especially of the door- to-deor 'Sort, are quite well skilled at their trade, One suspects the book vendors might teach the United States government and its Agénts something about salesmanship, The idea of a government teaching book agents how to sell books is not less absurd than the' suggestion that it teach ducks how to swim, women how to window shop, and real estate men how to gell lots, If the U, 8, government has discovered some- thing' about the game of selling, heretofore un- known to the book agent, it has achieved some- thing that transcends even the achievement of Colonel Lindbergh, Even though it has made such a discovery it will have difficulty in proving to the public that the first hook agent didn't know all the artifices and devices known to-day, The profession of those who sell books from office to office and house to house is synonym- ous with tenacity and cheek, What more about salesmanship can one learn who can make a rich living by selling a book nobody wants? One can hardly agree with the board of voca- tional education that "selling books is a voca- tion just as much as setting tiles or repairing automobiles or winding motors," Book gelling is an art and book agents are horn artists, Only an artist can get a housewife away from her Monday's wash and hold up for an hour the tired business man's golf game. VACATION TIME This is vacation time, and the call of the willis in the air, Fer months, the shut-in millions have been studying ads, poring over time tables and counting their cash, The cave man hang-over rises up to squelch arbppolitics and artificiality. The demand that we bunt, fish, or ride a merry-go-round, if there is mothing better, is imperative, We think it is the human brain inventing a new device, science providing a remedy for the stifled existence of great cities, but it isn't. Ws mature asserting herself, the wisdom of instinct compelling us to do what we ought. The wild goose is already hatching her y in the Canadian marshes, having flown up from Texas to enjoy the cool summer. oriole is singing on the slopes of the and the swallow is making her nest the eaves of many a northern barn.

Barton, M, D. (Registered in accordance with the Copyright Act) Diagnosing Anacinia In examining the red cells in hu- man blood it was discovered = some time ago that some had a sort ol fibrous stripe across them, like network. It was noted that in the blood of the ordinary healthy in- dividual the proportion was about one of these cells to every hund- red of the other red cells. After certain ailments or acei dents however, it was noted that these striped cells inereased in numtier, being 'in the proportion of five to the hundred of the othe: red eells. hus in cases where the patien. had lost considerable blood fron an injury, aperation, or in any oth er manner, the blood making apparatus got busy at once to mak new cells, and the degree of activ ity of the blood making apparatu was In direct proportion to the number of these striped cells i the blood. Dr. Dameshek, working in the Boston City Hospital, tells us that in pernicious anaemia these striped about five per cent of the whole, He was ahle to prove rise in the number of these was for the time al least favo ahle sign, whereas the pe tance of a low percentage of these cell: was a bad sign. In simple anaemia, that is wher food matter in the red cell i lessened, it was found that these striped cells numbered about 1 per cent or less. You can thus see that where the patient is pale or anaemic looking that this knowledge is worth mucl to both patient and doctor. Gen erally speaking the difference he tween simple anaemia and pernic ions anaemia, is as mentioned abov: that simple anaemia is a lessenin: amount of food material i blood eells, and pernicion anaemia is a lessening of the ac of blood cells them that cell Thus this knowledge that ther is an increase in the number striped cells in pernicious anaemi would enable the physician to ge busy with a transfusion of bloos or other severe measure, where: if it were the simple anaemia, diel measures with more off the out doors, would he indicated. Thus the percentage of these little striped cells in the blood i another help in diagnosis and treatment. : ; Mys. Tiff 1 have a vision of al new coat." | Mr. Tif "My dear, it's a mi age."
