Mr. Guthrie, Minister of Justice. remarked that the law had been so for a long time, but that no com- plaints had been received against it. He admitted that though this sec- tion dealt with giving or selling to children under sixteen there is no law that prohibits such n minor possessing or using firearms. After considerable discussion the section was changed to reduce the age from sixteen to twelve and, as amended. it was adopted.

(“Have you ever thought that. although every till? 0i luxury an“ labour-saving dcvicc is available in our homes. our houses lac-k the comfort of those 0f Victorian daysTfl-Sir Mark Webster Jerk- inson.) There is something to be said for a. draughty palace against n warm hutch something to be said for the oumradeshlp oi large families, something to be said for very square rneals-sirlolns and ginger puddings-Jar grand pianos. for four-posters. for thick carpets, and for plenty of head-room and elbow-room. And there is much to be said for the spirit which went with them, the feeling of security and comfortable future. Our age is one o! flats and small houses, of most of the comfortable disoomforts de- scribed by Sir Mark Jenkinson, and we live in a, most Georgian dis- comfort of mind. But when the last thunder has rurrfaled, the last shower finished, and we come into a cool, clear world again, we will build houses for ourselves of l. comfort and- convenience of which Sir Marks Victorians never dreamt.

What is planned to be the greatest and most comprehensive Advertising and Marketing Exhi- bition ever conceived, will be open- ed by the British Advertising As- sociation at Olympia in London this July, according to advice received by thc Montreal office of the Cunard and Anchor-Donaldson Lines. The purpose of the exhibi- tion will be to demonstrate to the general public and the producers, manufacturers and distributors hcrw important a part advertising and marketing must play in the revival of world prosperity. It is expected that this exhibition will be larger than previous ones because the channels of Imperal Trade have been enlarged by the Ottawa agree- ments. _

A GREAT BOON

shy-The publication of the Ben- nett Budget has brought the usual amount of adverse criticism. Th! tax on sugar especially stinks in the nostrils of the political propa- gandists, and their walls rise t0 Heaven with insistent rBlieYW-lftn- As citizens of Prince Edward Is- 15nd, we have every reason to con- gratulate ourselves that the Bud- get is so conclusively favorable t0 this Province. The few dollars that the tax on sugar, face powder. etcetera, takes out of our pockets are already being many times re- placed through increased prices for our exportable produce. largely 511° we believe to the moral effect of the fixation of the value of the DOlmd sterling, with regard to these products,

With all due respect for the opin- ions of others we submit that this sort of complaining, unconstructlve criticism does not contribute to our moral welfare whether as a nation or as individuals. We have never been militant in our political opin- ions, and thus claim the privilege of exemption from the charge of blind partisanship, when we ex- press a keen admiration for our Prime Minister, the Hon- R- B- Bennett. He occupies. by election, the highest position the people of_ Canada can offer. As in every oth- er crisis, great need, has produced a great man to handle the controls.

Some years ago I wrote n mall- zine article entitled “The Organ That Makes You a Quitter."

I was talking about the liver which is, as you may know. "the king of all the organs of thebodY-T

It weighs about six pounds and has one quarter of all your blood in it all the time as it has a. number of jobs to do while this great amount of blood is passing through it.-

It is hard to say just which oi’ its jobs is the most imllfifiiml; millili- facturing bile for digestive purposes. storing away sugar in the liver for future needs, or taking harmful or poisonous substances out of the blood. In addition to this a good flow of bile means that wastes will not accumulate in the lower bowel. as the bile so stimulates the mus- cular walls of the IMEB mifisum that they push the wastes from the food downward and out of the body.

Now the liver can make you a quitter by failing to take the pois- ons out of your blood or falling to stimulate the- larBB ifliesune- be‘ cause it is poison in you that gives you that lazy, tired, lack of ambi- tion feeling. .

Why does the liver not do its work properly for you?

Simply because you do not glvc it a chalice. You either eat, too much rich food and it cant handle it, or

. . .' O heavenly Eloquence,

That with the strong rein of com- manding words

Dost manage, guide, and master th' eminence

Of men's affections, more than kll their swords.

Shall we not ofler to thy excellence

The richest treasure that our wit affords?

Thou that canst do much more with one poor pen

Than all the powcrs of princes can effect; .

And draw. divert, dispose and fash- ion men,

Better than force or rigour can direct!

Should we this ornament of glory then,

As th’ unmaterlnl fruits of shades, neglect? . . .

horse and buggy. The solid con- tentment, and slow steady progress, of that age has its appeal, in con- trast with the fifty mile per hour speed demon out for a drive to no- where in particular. An attempt to turn back the clock were futile; but a return to the sanity of our fathers in their insistence that ex- penditure must be subject to rev- enue, spells success rather than fu- tility. We note in this connection, and with pleasure, the restored ac- tivity in the horse business. Farm- ers are now raising their own stock,

Due to his leadership and purpose- ful manipulation of affairs, Can- ada occupies a position of eminence , among the nations of the world. |

In this time of universal distress ' such as the world has never expcr- i fenced, politics should be a second- ary consideration, and the unified efforts of earnest men and womcn whatsoever their political persu- asion, should support the unques- tionably honest endeavour of Mr. Bennett and his colleagues, to meet taxation problems, halt our precip- ltate descent into deeper and deep- er national debt, and to make of Canadians a “peculiar people" by the security and sanity of their financial condition.

The gradual realization that the hectic days of 1915-1920 arc unlike- ly to recur in this generation has had a healthy and solidifying cf- fect. The act of putting the past out to pasture and facing conditions as they exist is a stabilizing influ- cncc. We do not advocate emula- tion of the boosting spirit heralded across the Border as the road to former prosperous values. Already we scent more confidence in trade relations, owing we conclude to the

else you sit around and move YOUF body so little, that the liver never gets "squeezed." It is this sqlwel- ing of the liver that stimulates the circulation of the blood in the llvcr, and it‘ does all its Jobs lust that much better.

To get some idea. of how move- ment of the body helps liver cir- culation, it was shown that when womcn wore high tight corsets there were four timcs as many women as men afflicted with gall stones, whereas with the use of the low corset or girdle, the number of cases now just equals that of men-

How can you stimulate your liver into action without having to play games, ride, or do some form of hard work?

Just kcep your feet together, knees straight, and bend over to the right side as far as you can, then straighten up and bent over t0 the left side, then over to right side and so forth. Do this about twenty times to each side and do it night and mornnlg. .

By keeping your liver stirred, the poisons are removed from the blood and the wastes from the body, and instead of being a qultter you‘ll bc your own real self.

It is one of the strangest phases of our history, the bitter personal en- mity between those two great Scots, who sank their differences to each other only for a. fcw months to bring about Confcdernton, and then became as bitter as before.
