The council is to be commended

Wis, are aware that the tame sqrlir-
rels which abound there are among
the attractions Of the city. Our
woods and river glens used to
be much more thickly populated
with squirrels and birds than at
present, and with a proper public
sentiment and enforcement of the
laws, there is chance for getting
them back again.

a bottle every day of his life. and he had lived to within four months of be- ing 100 years old. Two or three pints of beer a day would not injure any one more than tea. Light beer, containing only 1-2 per cent of alcohol. taken with bread and cheese, was scientifical- ly better than the feeding of bread. tea and jam which now constituted the die tary of so many children.
 At the same time. said Dr. Davy, he never recommended the use of alcohol to 8 patient who did not drink. and in the case of those who did drink he specified what they might take. It was scientific fact that alcohol was not necessary to life or bodily work and very rarely useful in disease. and that as a nation we drink too much.
 A most interesting discussion on the good and evil of tobacco and the smok- ing habit arose in the State medical section of the Association meeting.
 pr. Herbert Ttdswell (Torquay) at- tributed the practice of smoking by lads to the desire to emulate their eld- CTS. The first attempt should convince them that 1t was injurious to health, but they could not see 1t in that light. They forced their stomachs by perse- verance to tolerate poison. and in time the habit became a pleasure and so- lace. Hundreds and thousands of boys were growing up to be cigarette fiends.
 Cigarette smoking, which is so com mon among men and boys. and even la dies, was certainly a national danger, and boys were killing themselves by hundreds and thousands. The only thing tobacco was good for was to keep off mosquitoes.
 pr. A. Drury (Halifax) stoutly de- tended the practice of smoking, and charged Dr. Tidswell with being an ex- tremist. He had always understood that the discoverer of tobacco smoking was a Devonian, Sir Walter Raleigh. but according to Dr. Tidswell 1t seemed that 1t was an invention of Satan spec ially devised to catch youth. Many minute insects and germs were incapa- ble of living in tobacco smoke.
 Or. G. c. McWalter (Dublin) said that from his observations in hospitals he had wondered whether smoking had not the effect of preventing tuberculo- sis. He denied that smoking was in- furious to the teeth.
 Dr. Wynee (Leigh) declared that he had always smoked to excess, and he had no particular fault to find with his health As to whether he was short enine his life he could not argue that matter with Dr. Tidswell until he was dead.
 pr. Newsholm Bright, President of the section, said tobacco smoke could only kill the consumption germ when 1t was in so concentrated form as to kill the smoker himself. Smoking carriages and public house bars were usually redolent of tobacco fumes, yet they were among the chief places in which the bacAlli aboundsd.

Lively Discussion on Their Merits and
 Demerfts by the Doctors.
 London Daily News.
 The meetings in connection with the British Medical Association at Exeter began with a well attended breakfast given by the National Temperance League in the Royal Public Rooms. The Mayor of Exeter presided. and Dr. Davy. the President; pr. Reeve, ex- President. and pr. Simeon Shell. Pres ident-elect. supported him.
 The Mayor said he wondered that the medical profession did not as a whole take up temperance with more vigor and more seriousness than they did at present. Laymen looked to them to give the lead in this matter, for alco- hol claimed larger number of victims than tuberculosis. It lay within the power of doctors to help them to make considerable advance by refraining from recommending to their patients such a dangerous thing as alcohol.
 pr. Davy, while admitting that the evils in crime and disease arising from the excessive use of alcohol demanded the attention of every Englishman. more especially as the drink habit was increasing among women in England. proceeded to cIiticize the ultra tenn perance advocates, whose arguments, he said, not infrequently consisted of "un- scientific twaddle." Lessons on the abuse of alcohol should be given in our schools, and the children should be taught that alcohol was not necessary for muscular work. But" he cpntin- ued, ito go on and tell them. as in some American schools, that you are morally wrong in drinking glass of wine and to do so Is taking poison, is unscientific twaddle, and Is absolutely wrong. If that is what they are going to be taught. I, for one, prefer to teach them nothing at all
 Continuing. Dr. Davy admitted ltk- ing for port wine, of which he said his rreat-uncle had never drunk less than
