When we read of an elephant hunter who
has been trampled to death IN the wllds OF
India, we wonder at the foolhardiness of
man who will travel round the world and
endure all manner of hardships, in order to
court death in a far away jungle. A man
does not have to make journey to India
in order to court death in manner equally
foolhardy.
Thousands of hard working men are daily
counting death in much more certain
form, without evor leaving their native vii
lagos or cities. They are the men who neg
lect their health They are the men who
court death from consumption, or some
other deadly disease due to improper or
insufficient nourishment. The man who
suffers from bilious or nervous disorders,
who has weak stomach and an impaired
digestion, who has lost the power to eat,
rest or sleep, and who fails to take prompt
steps to remedy these conditions, is court.

Treatment of the Cape Worm.

AS is we'll known the cape in poul-
try is caused by minute worm or
worms, which lodge in the throat and
choke the bird to death. There are
several methods of treating this trou-
BILE, the most common one being the
use Of feather dipped in kerosene
oil and thrust down the throat. This
is, perhaps, harsh remedy, but it
has been generally successful, and
will therefore continue in use. One
of the most successful methods Of
checking the disease and at the same
time method that should be care
fully used, is to drop half teaspoon
full of carbolic acid on hot iron-a
griddle is an excellent article to use
in coop where the infected chicks
are confined, covering it with piece
of burlap and allowing the fumes to
gradually escape. The fumes will
cause the chicks to cough up the
worms. but if care is not taken is apt
to suffocate them. A less dangerous
remedy that produces the same re-
suits is to put the afflicted chicks in
box in which fine slaked lime has been
placed and shake the box two or three
times. Good care must be taken Of
young chicks to prevent this trouble
some disease, and it may be prevented,
to some extent, by feeding small
onions chopped into fine bits mixed
with the morning mash once or twice
q week.

Over the whole world the pro-
portion Of the sexes is about equal, but
in separate parts of the world it varies
greatly. For instance, in this country
there are SO women to every 100 men;
in Europe there are rather more than
100 women to 100 men. Canada has
95 women to 100 men.

serious matter how we treat these privi-

backs upon them without good reason, but
we shall have to give an account for all
these opportunities. 1t is always serious
matter to incur the responsibilities that rest
upon us when we enjoy these privileges
Where much is given, much will be re-

our responsibilities? 1t is serious matter
to live and work among men. We are so
made that we certainly influence people,
and little things in lite show the character

characters. We are forming them by the
way we treat our privileges and the way
we live before men-all this goes to give
us character that by and by will be eter-

serious side indeed. Let us come to this

thoughtful hearts, come with desire to
know mure of Gods word that we may be
able to realize the holy promises in our
daily living. | congratulate our brother
on his experience in teaching this Bible
class; it will take eternity to show the
fruits OF his teaching.
