Burgundy at Its Best.

Burgundy wines of 1915 are report
ed by the most eminent connoisseurs
of Paris to be the best since 1865. In
fact their verdict is perfect"
The summer of 1915 was hot, so
was the autumn, with light rains now
and again at exactly the right inter
walls. M. Matthew, celebrated savant
on the subject of wines, writes: "Since
1865 there has been no Burgundy like
that of 1915 in delicacy or strength.
The 1915 vintage is remarkable syn
thesis of bouquet, aroma, body and
flavor"
But of course all this is of merely
academic interest to us.

The SUGAR Shortage.

Colonel House at a Paris reception
was talking about the French sugar
shortage.
"The French sugar ration is pound
month"; you get it," he said.
usually you don't get it, and then
you buy your sugar clandestinely. The
price is so or 90 cents a pound.
"After enduring the French sugar
shortage for a month or two" the
colonel ended, "you think very long
ingly of the peace-time plenty soon to
come, and you appreciate as never be-
fore the wonderful beauty of the dear
old hymn, In the sweet by-and-by.'"

Less Crime, Fewer Carpets.

There does not at first glance seem
to be much connection between crime
and carpets, says the London Daily
Mail, but it is fact that the decrease
ia crime brought about In India, as
elsewhere, by the war has led to a
decrease in the supply Of Indian car
pets. The reason is that most of these
carpets, especially the finer and more
expensive kinds, are made by convicts,
notably in the great Jail at Peona.
They are made entirely by hand, so
It is a case of few convicts few carpets.

Only Foolish Depend on Luck.

The person who depends upon luck
may find advancement for time, but
any success which is founded upon
luck or privilege is bound to be I'M
stable. Take any great man or wom-
an who has reached the top and you
will find that they have fought every
step of the way. 1t is never an easy
thing to climb a high hill, but there
is always a good view at the top.
IL we are content to stand at the bot
tom and see other people climb, that
is up to us.

Insurance Against tuberculosis.

DIR. p. j. Menard outlines in the
Presse Medicale a plan for universal
compulsory insurance against tubercu-
losis, the funds from which would
serve for the fight against tubercu-
losis. His scheme is something like
compulsory social insurance against
sickness, but the tax or insurance dues
imposed would include all classes of
society, not merely the wage earners.
He protests that the fight against tu-
berculosis should not be left to charity
or private initiative

Marine Tins.

Sailors have a curious way of know
ing when their ship is approaching
land. They go to mother nature for
their knowledge. If you are on the
ship they may ask you to feel the
deck, which is wet with dew. Even
though the stars are shining clearly,
and the sea absolutely smooth, the
deck seems as though water had been
poured across it. The sailor will
then inform you that dew is never to
be found more than thirty miles from
land, so the dew is a good prophet.

Early RISING.

"Do you remember how we used to
scold Josh about oversleeping before
he went into the army?" said Mrs.
Corntossel.
"Yes," replied the farmer; "that's
why we can't say word when he gets
up at daybreak and accompanies the
ROSTERS on his cOrnet."

Aim Hinh. is Good Advice.

Aim at perfection in everything,
though in most things it is unattain-

and persevere will come much nearer
to it than those whose laZiness and

acknowledgements.
