who spoke to the Reformed Ministerial AS

''Out of 11l,0Oo marriage licenses issued

Miller said. will be presumably killed The

WORLD FULL OF COMPLAINERS
Some Wall About iii Health, Many
About III Fortune, but Most of
All About iii Luck.

The world is full of complainers.
Some complain of i'll health, many of
ill fortune and most of all of Ill luck.
A pound of pluck is worth ton of
luck. 1t is not perfect world. Who
is well every day throughout the year
without an ache, a pain or a cough?
Who is perfect in physique, in tenn
per, in deed and word and conscience?
What man or woman is without a
weakness or reason at times for mis-
givings or cause at times for repent
ance?
1t is a world Of foibles, fads and
fanatics. If we were all perfect, the
preachers would be needless. Heaven
would be on earth.
There is comfort in the thought that
the striking differences we find among
men and women make the world at
tractive. If all were alike, the mo-
notony would be unbearable.
Think of these things when you feel
like repenting over Ill health, i'll for
tune, Ill treatment or i'll luck.

always "others."-Leslie's.~

The Canadians, heartened by sue

across the open ground sloping toward
Avion and the village of Leauvette,
near the SoucheZ river. They met op-
position of q serious character at only
one point, where a combination of ma

the advance. The attack was not in

favored the Germans, so that the delay
did no harm.
The -assaulting troops included men

By this advance the British line has

The attack was made along two
mile front. On the extreme left Nova
Scotians pushed their way up the Lens
Arras road to the village Of Leauvette.
Here they took a number of prisoners.
At daybreak Canadian airplanes,
flying low over Avion, saw few Ger

were made by mine explosions at the
crossroads are now seriously hindering
them in bringing up troops from Lens

FAVORS S5oO,O0O,0OO BONDS
War Tax Measure is Still Short
$500, 100000.

Washington, June 29.-With revision
Of the war tax bill virtually completed
and now totaling 81 1,449,0O0,000, against
the $1,S0O,OOO,0OO levy of increased
taxes adopted by the house, the SEN
ate finance committee considered au-
thorization of additional bonds.
Senator Stone formally proposed a
bond issue of $5O0,O0O,0OO The com
mittee plans to reach a decision and
to fix the rate to be imposed on war
excess profts-probably 16 per cent.
During lengthy committee discus
sion of the bond question a larger is
sue was not suggested, although with
$500,0OO,0O0 of bonds Senator Simmons
said the bill still would fall short by
$3OO,O0O,0OO and probably more of
meeting the ensuing years war ex-
pense.
From excess profits the committee
now plans, Under it's latest estimates,
to raise $3OO,OO0,OOO.
