UP-ro.DArE TABLE SERVICE

The hostess who ecntemplates in
viting guests for the holiday dinner,
and who wishes TO be smart and mod
ern should post herself on the latest
notions regarding the table and its
appointments, rather than the food
which is to be served. To be sure,
the guests come to eat, but they also
see, and particularly the women of
the party, will be on the alert for
new ideas which she can copy at some
future entertainment in her own
home.
Awell-cooked meal is all right in It's
way, but quite important is the table
vice of the table and the appointments
of the meal. Study the effects of
the decorations to be used, the garn-
ishing for the various courses, the
table service-silver, dishes and ETC.,
then see that they are all carried out.
The few little touches given the meal
and the table will go far toward CIV
ing the hostess a reputation among
her woman friends for up-to-dateness.

The autumn winds are signing low.
The requiem of the year,
Fields where blossoms used to grow
Are now all brown and scar.
How beautiful the forest leaves
OF yellow and of red,
Silently falling in the breeze.
The hills are carpeted.
The song birds of the fields the glen,
To Southland take their quest;
The frost king reappears again
Forsaken is the nest.
The squirrels scamper to and fro,.
Their busy days well spent,
As they prepare for sleet and snow
That they may dwell content
In distance, herds of cattle Craze
Beside the lakes Of blue,
No more we hear the harvest lays
The mourning doves low coe.
The cabin in, the canyon there
Has log-fi ID the gyate;
Was ever place more home like, fair
Tis sweet to contemplate.
While seasons come and pass awAy,
The tall pine Of the wood
Stands sentinel by night and day..
Ih mountain solitude.
Asleep. the columbine ahd rose,
secluded their retreat
Yellow and red the ivv pvrnwa
Where ripping waters meet.
Within the glen where dewdrops bright
Once sparkled in the sun,
VIII fall the crystal snowfiakes whiG
In silence, one by one.
Thus were the mystery Of earth
The requiem Of the year,
Until anew in springtime birth
The flowers shall reappear.

If the digestive organs are no

nutrition, which is absolutely essen
tial to the recovery of other diseased
parts, will be lacking and there car
be no permanent relief. When bodily
nutrition is normal, the stomach dig
ests the food, the blood absorbs ano
carries the nourishment to the differ
ent parts of the body, causing the
various organs to properly perform
their functions.
Nature has provided a remedy in
the ingredients of Argo-Phosphate
the new herbal stomach remedy,
which is now being introduced here
1t is purely vegetable and it's vitaliz-
ing, corrective and reconstructive
qualities are SO pronounced that bene-
cial results are noticed from the first
day. That this is true, it is only
necessary to listen to the statements
made daily by local people who have
given Argo-Phosphate fair trial and
have been benefited thereby.

Winnipeg, August canadian

The Winnipeg strike alone cost
the workingmen several million dol

manufacturers and the public was
at least 100 per cent more than the

In June, the eighty strikes in Can

loss of about 1,445,021 working

TRANSPORT BILL
Sir Eric GeCiies Heads Extensive

LONDON, Aug. 2-(Correspond-

vast scope of the work to be under
taken as soon as the much discussed
transport bill is passed by parliament
was outlined the other day in the
House of Commons by Sir Eric Ged-
des, Minister of Ways and Communi-
cations, who will head the new
extensive reforms and improvements
planned for the railways, roads and
docks. The railway program includes
the following:
Elimination of all competitive SER
vices given merely for the sake of
competition.
Common use by all lines of rolling
stock.
Elimination of privately owned
railway cars.
Increase of traffic by judicious ell
cctriication of certain lines.
Increase of the size of rolling stock
necessitating the alteration of sta
ton platform clearances, enlargement
of the entrance to warehouses and the
like.
Standardization of rolling stock and
locomotives.

6 inches thick, while the final layer
of soil should be to 8 inches deep,
depending upon weather conditions.
Ventilation may be provided by
means of a wooden fiue, the lower
end of which extends almost to the
bottom of the pit, while the upper
end, should project well above the
covering, the valve being equipped
with wooden cap to prevent the en-
trance of rain or snow, and also IN
order that it may be closed entirely
during very cold weather.
A pit of this sort when well made
will provide perfect protection for the
potatoes until spring, the objection to
it being that the potatoes stored
therein are not always accessible
during the winter.
In regions where rainfall is slight
dugout potato cellars are commonly
used, it not being necessary to pro-
vide these buildings with water tight
roofs. Usually the pit or "hog back"
as it is called, is placed on short,
narrow ridge of land which permits
of easy approach and central drive
way into the pit at the grade line. 1t
is necessary to brace such potatoes by
means of posts and plates in order to
prevent caveins. Some of the pits
are more expensive and substantial,
with the side and end walls made of
concrete. Generally it is advisable
to have the storage cellars or pit1
equipped with some system of arti.
fetal lighting.
CENTRAL DRIVEWAY IN
CELLAR
The storage cellar is usually pro-
vided with driveway entrance and is
considerably wider than the cellars
without driveways, which often are
only IL to 80 feet wide, the entire
space being used for storage purpose
and the floor being either dirt, wood,
or concrete. Some of the best stor-
ages have driveways through the
middle with bins on either side, the
driveway being an earthen one with
the storage bins having ventilated
wooden floors laid on ioists placed at
right angles to the driveway ami thus
furnishing an unrestricted circulation
of air beneath the bin.

One of the big hits of the perform
ance was boxing Kangaroo. This

Another clever bit was the lightning

Relia lie Method Of Hair Care

Hair is by far the most conspic-
uous thing about us and is probably
the most easily damaged by bad OF
careless treatment. If we are very
careful in hair washing, we will
have virtually no hair troubles. An
especially fine shampoo for this
weather. one that brings out all the
natural beauty of the hair, that dis
solves and entirely removes all
dandruff, excess oil and dirt, can
easily be used at trifling expense by
simply dissolving teaspoonful OF
canthrox (Which you can get at any

This makes a full cup of shampoo

it to all the hair instead Of just the
