to get up at five. Why 50? Because
he must not relax; he is ever on duty.
He may smile at this person and at
that person. He dares not notice any
body's peculiarities. or oddities or un-
reasonableness. The result Is he
must find his relaxation in the eve

TRADE REVIVAL IN
WESTERN CANADA
Not a Myth but an Actually
Shown in the Returns Of 49,
ricuItural Statistics and
Every Department Of
Trade and Com
Tlerce.

The trade revival in Manitoba. Sas-
katchewan and Alberta is an actually
and not q myth. There is today q
spirit OF optimism in the air. Just as
two years ago there prevailed the OPP
posite spirit OF pessimism.
A general trade revival has been
felt in every department Of business in
the Prairie Provinces. The agricul.
turists are in better shape than they
have yer been before in their lives.
No farmers OF any country are in bet.
ter financial condition and in a more
general state Of prosperity than are
the farmers Of Manitoba. Saskatche-
wan and Alberta. The farmers have
harvested a record crop-a crop which
enriches them to the extent OF some
thing over $500. 900. 900.
In the cities the prosperity OF tho
country has been reflected. Every.
where business is on the hustle. The
wholesalers and the retailers and the
implement dealers find business good.
The banks and other collection houses
find collections satisfactory. and tinan-
cial men declare that westerners are
paying up their debts. In Winnipeg
, the bank clearings have been the larg.
est in history. exceeding some weeks
the figures Of Montreal and Toronto.
The grain shipments have been the
biggest in the history Of Winnipeg and
in the history OF the twin ports. Fort
William and Port Arthur. The mail
order houses have had a big year, the
rush Of fall orders exceeding all previ.

guine expectations have been exceeded

production and in creation Of wealth.
giving generously to charitable and
other funds, paying up their back
debts. while going along carefully as
regards any creation Of new debts.
They are economizing but not scrimp.
ing. acting cautiously but not misery.
The financial heads OF eastern Canada,
Of the United States and Of Europe are
no longer criticizing western Canada:
rather they r unstintedly Offering
their praise and their compliments.
The financial press recognizes that
the tide has turned in western Canada,
and it has been published to the world.
The condition of western Canada at
the close Of 1915 is one Of optimistic
prosperity. backed by the same deter.
mination OF western people to go on
increasing their productiveness and
maintaining the records which they
have already established.
The trade revival Of western Canada
Is the happiest feature in the business

Harm Done by Hertzian Waves.

Ever since the extensive commercial
employment of wireless telegraNhy,
there have been many who believe
that the powerful HertZian waves Sc.
riously affect organic life. In fact,
some have even suggested that laws
or regulations should be enacted to
protect organic life against wireless
waves. With a view to determining
the extent and nature Of tho radio
waves influence N organic life and
climate. DR.. c. Abel.Musgrave recent.
~ asked several questions on the sub.
ject to be answered by a number Of
prominent German scientists. The
summary Of their answers was that
wireless waves have no influence on
organic life, nor do they alter c%liluatic
conditions, although it is true that
certain electrical stresses are capable
Of accelerating rainfalls.

So the good soldier of Jesus Christ
will obey orders. Enlistment means
entire surrender, and henceforth the
great question Of life Is. Lord. what
wilt thou have me to do?" Nor will he
argue the question OF duty, but invari'
ably give his master the benefit Of the
doubt. II is to be feared that some
disciples have not reached this point.
If a thing is not absolutely forbidden.
they think that they can indulge in it.

would be far better. but What would
Jesus do?" is better still.
Said Mary Lyon. the founder OF
Holyoke college, The only thing I
live in fear of, is that | may not find
out and do the will Of God" He who
has that spirit will not only obey Gods
will when he knows 1t, but he will
take great pains to ascertain 1t. He
will take Joshua's marching orders for
his own, This book of the law shalt
not depart out Of thy mouth, but thou
shalt mediate therein day and night.

Hardship.-Fie expects it. Sleepless
nights and weary days, forced marches
and scanty fare, probable sickness and
possible death-these are what he

price of liberty he is willing to pay it.

II. A Good Soldier viii Not Entan-
gle Himself With Outside Matters
What would you think OF a soldier who
should report for duty bringing with
him a dog and a fishing rod and a bi.
cycle? He would doubtless be told
that while these things were we'll
enough in their place. he was expected
to fight and not to amuse himself.
1t is said that a soldier who enlisted
in the Civil wal took along his kit OF
watchmaker's tool and while they
were in camp he did considerable bust
ness. But one day when the order
came to strike tents and prepare for
battle, he looked around his tent in
dismay and exclaimed. Why, | can't
possibly go, for l have twelve watches
to repair which l have promised by
Saturday night"
That man had forgotten what he en-
listed for. In like manner there are
Christians who %entangle themselves
with worldly companions and question
able anusements to such an extent as
to greatly hinder their usefulness and
influence.
~. A Good Soldier Obeys ORDERS
He simply goes where he is sent and
does what he is told to do. Seldom
does he know the full intent of even
his own movements. Like the brave
band which Tennyson has made i'm.
mortal:
Theirs NOT 10 make renly.
