C. 3 CASTOR I A For Infants and Children In Use For Over 30 Years Always bears the -Signature of PROTECT THE SONG BIRDS SEEMS EVERYONE HEARD ABOUT IT Sound Advice Which is as Applicable to United States as to Cana dian Farmers. Our songbirds are now on their way to their Canadian haunts, and some of them may have arrived when these lines are read. Their return suggests the old admonition protect them in every way possible, because they are the best protectors of our gardens, our garden crops and our orchards. With out these birds the insects would "eat us out of house and home." In an article on the protection of wild life Jack Miner condenses the whole case into a single paragraph. He takes the robin as the representa tive of our winged allies in the war fare against insects and worms, and he states his case in this fashion: "Now what good is the robin? Ev erybody knows the robin. A boy came along the road with a 22 rifle, saw a robin sitting there, and killed It. I went over and picked the robin up. . Two cutworms were squirming on the ground the robin had had them in his beak. I held the bird up, and two more fell out of his mouth. Remem ber, one cut worm will cut down five rtomato plants in a night .The cut worm does his work and then hides Tinder the soil; Mr. Robin, comes hop ping along, picks in there and pulls him out and then turns him into a robin. If anyone tells you that a robin will destroy one hundred cut worms in a day take it from him that it Is true." Montreal Herald. All Want7 To Try New Drug That Dries Up Corns So They Lift Out Good news spreads rapidly and druggists here are kept busy dispens ing freezone, the recent discovery ot a Cincinnati man, which is caid to loosen any corn so it lifts out with the fingers. A quarter of an ounce costs very little at any pharmacy, but is said to be sufficient, to rid one's feet of evr ery hard or soft corn or callus. You apply just a few drops on the tender, aching corn and instant ly the soreness is relieved, and soon the corn is so shriveled-that it lifts out without pain. It is a sticky sub stance which dries when applied and never inflames or even irritates the adjoining tissue. This discovery will prevent thou sands of deaths annually from lock jaw and infection heretofore result ing from the suicidal habit of cut ting corns.

Chapman, vicar of that quaint relic of old London, the j Savoy chapel, marooned in a back water of the Strand, has emerged into print, in the columns of the Morning Post, on the great amusement ques tion. Mr. Chapman is convinced that all is not well in the theatrical state of England, and there are many who agree with him. Still he is no mere iconoclast. He has his remedy. It is a very simple one a ministry of mirth, headed by an ideal chief, and established without delay. But then Mr. Chapman admits that he is an "in corrigible optimist." ' Perhaps Mr. Chapman might add to the gayety of nations by editing a new edition of the I works of Demokritos of Abdera, the Laughing Philosopher, unless, as is quite possible, and not without rea son, he regards Demokritos as the first of pessimists.
