the law to quarantine scarlet fever cases for six weeks are there any aftereffects of measles there is no difference between scar let fever and scarlatina the latter name is only used by the public to denote a mild attack of the disease but it should be kept in mind that a mild attack is just as infectious as a more severe one the symptoms are sore throat headache rise in temper ature nausea vomiting strawberry tongue swollen neck glands and the rosered or pinpoint rash it is the law to quarantine scarlet fever cases for a period of about six weeks or- until all discharges from the nose throat and ears have cleared up the aftereffects of scarlet fever are middleear disease and kidney disease these should be carefully guarded against for in the case of middleear disease deafness often results wid in the case of kidney disease the patient sometimes becomes a semiinvalid for life as regards measles the most com mon aftereffects are pneumonia and tuberculosis the coryza or cold in the head which is generally one of the early symptoms of measles should never bo neglected the infection may spread down the bronchial tubes and cause bronchopneumonia tuber culosis also results not infrequently from an attack of measles the high death rate from measles should be a warning to parents and guardians not to think of the disease as a trifling one that the child will eventually get

manufacture but the utilization of ca nadian waste products has just come into being with factories to be estab lished at kentvllle nova scotia and montreal and head office at kentville this is for the manufacture of a new breakfast food to be known as appo- krisps said after exhaustive tests to contain higher food values than all other breakfast foods and which it is expected to place on the market at an early date the company with mont real and nova scitla capital and di rectors has been incorporated with nova scotia charter under a capitali zation of 500000 the new cereal is very largely com posed of wheat apples and sugar it is crisp and highly flavored with ap ple tho whole project of manufac ture however is based on utilizing grades of apples which though of per fect quality are too small to be readily piarletable owing to having been bruised when falling from the tree or undersized in this manner with tho cooperation of the valley growers and in the form of pulp a profitable market will be found for apples which have hitherto been more or less diffi cult to market the fruit first undergo ing an evaporation process before en tering the final stage of manufacture under tho companys new system even in its initial stages the manu facture is expected to result in a valu able economic saving it being antici pated that 200000 barrels of apples will be needed yearly under the minimum economic operation two car loads of apple pulp per week will be needed and this treated at the kent- villo plant will be shipped to mont real the output of the plant at mont real is expected to be 25000 pounds of breakfast food per week put up in halfpound cartons the industry should be a valuable addition to those activities utilizing purely canadian materials in manufac ture especally as it is making a com mercial use of a product for which there has previously been little mar ket the annapolis valley is one of the first applegrowing areas of the american continent with an average yearly yield of about two million bar rels and there whl be available an adequate volume of the raw product with the development of the manufac turing industry and the

gravely unconventional if not worse that at least is the excuse which miss e e somerville offers for quoting this incomprehensible incident in her memoirs of irish life we were hunting in the bills it was a bright and sunny day with a light and vanishing touch of frost the hounds were drawing along tho south ern side of a high hill covered with short rough grass and heather with furze brakes here and there among the rooks we had not found but the hounds were busy feathering and wero obvit sure that a fox had been about then one of the field rode up to me and said with the icy calm that so often masks the fullnes3 of pride theres your fox master he pointed with his whip to something that looked like a rusty can lying un der a furze bush a fox not as i first feared dead but very much alive i cracked my whip at him and he slid away over the hill crossing after half a dozen yards or so a wide blackened patch where furze had been burnt in an instant we brought the hounds to the place where he had lain they made no outcry they wore interested but no more than that we took them on and crossed the burnt patch and sun- denly on its farther verge they all put their heads down and went away with a shout and wo had a brilliant forty minutes till the fox beat us on the edge of the sea and got safe into a slit in the cliffs why should the bed of the fox havo been less odorous than his light feet and why did the hounds not acknow ledge him until ho had crossed the burnt bit of hill these things are a mystery company there was a man lived up this lane whom no one ever went to see he never walked but in a rain and then indifferently a dog was always chained ahead and trottod slow as if- to find the road for him and people said therefore ho was blind but there wero somo who said ho
