Bird Protection important.

Cured BY Gold Injections.

The very latest postwar discovery
Is the curing of certain ailments by
means Of injections of diluted gold
This very expensive method of restor-
ing lost health was discovered by
French doctor, who has completely
cured a wealthy Partisan of complaint
similar to shell-shock. Although gold
is very scarce at present limited
supply Is available for medicinal pur-
poses. The price for one Injection of
good quality gold sometimes reaches
the fifty-pound mark, while in one or
two exceptional cases gold injections
have cost over hundred pounds each.
Consequently. only very rich persons
can at present undergo this gold
treatment. which has been successful
in rescuing several cases of complete
nervous breakdown. 1t should be re-
nembered. however, that the gold It.
self is of no great value as tonic.
The idea in making the injections is
to liven up the patient and 'prevent
him or her from brooding too serious
ly. This done. doctors believe that
half the battle is won. Strange to
say. the injections are not made
through the usual type of syringe. hut
generally through conical-shaped
tube OF pure platinum costing over
twelve hundred dollars.

Fine Tune VIII Live.

Probably the majority of church
goers will agree with the vicar of Well
ingborough in his refusal to allow the
church bells of his parish to ring out
"Tipperary" in honor Of the great
peace. for in these matters one must
of course draw the line somewhere.
Yet, when the vicar asks: "If
'Tipperary,'. why not Tommy, Make
Room for CncleT" the analogy is not
very apt. Both songs, 1t is true, are
not-well, classical music. But the
glorious associations of "Tipperary"
have raised it far above such criticism :;
and though the famous tune may never
reach the height of church belfry.
1t is. nevertheless, likely to go down
to posterity as the immortal MAR
seillaise" of the Old Contemptibles.-

HAS SUPERB WATER POWER
That Of British Columbia Is Said to
Equal Five Niagaras In Its
Possibilities.

The potential water power of Brit
lsh Columbia, experts declare, is equal
to that of five Niagaras. Pouring down
from the mountains comes enough wa
ter to develop 100000 horsepower.
Niagara falls, when all the water that
is available on the Canadian side has
been harnessed will produce only ESQ.,
900 horse power.
Only $4,000 electric horse power is
now developed by the plants supply
ing Vancouver, New Westminster and
the towns in the vicinity. This power
turns the wheels of mills and fac
tories, prOpels the street cars of these
cities and provides lights for the
streets and homes. If the entire wealth
Of British Columbia in water power
were harnessed 1t would be sufficient
to provide power, light and heat for
40 cities the size of Vancouver and
New Brunswick combined. With this
cheap power available, economists
predict that some day the province
will become one of the greatest manu-.
featuring centers of Canada.
