was built In Quebec, It was to Nova
Scotia in the persons of the three ('11
nard brothers that the vision came.
Steam power, however, was as vet a

It was not so much the use of lim

from wood to metal. ITad Nova Scotia

EARTH NOT REALLY CROWDED
Trouble Is That Nature Has Not
Seemed to Arrange a Division
That Is Equitable.
Somebody has reckoned that If the
earth's population had Increased 4',a
per cent every hundred years since
the birth of Christ, by now there would
not be standing room left on the globe.
Including all the Islands. Yet England
and Wales In ten years Increased their
population 161 per cent, and the In
crease In the United States has been
much greater.
The earth's population at the pres
ent time Is about slsteen hundred mil
lion. Different parts of the earth vary
greatly In the matter of density of pop
ulation. Certain portions of China,
the Ganges valley, and parts of Europe
are too crowded for comfort. On the
other hand, large tracts of Central
Asia, Russia, the Americas, Africa and
Australia could accommodate many
more people.
The Turks by their religious fanati
cism have caused devastation in the
last five hundred years in the valley
of the Danube, in Macedonia, Asia
Minor, Syria, and Mesopotamia. These
countries, as a result of massacre and
famine, are dried-up deserts. Popular

ARNOLD BENNETT ON WORDS
Repetition Better Than the Use of
Bad English, is the Contention
of Noted Writer.
Arnold Bennett hates hnlf-meanlnps,
and especially he hates inexact words.
He quotes from a London daily and
holds up to ridicule "The King and
queen were present at a first night In
a London theater last evening for the
Initial time In their reign." Ills com
ments are Instructive, Malcolm Cowley
writes In the Literary Review:
"It is quite a flrst-rate exsmple
of had English. The culprit, whose
inline Is well known to myself and
oilier members of the London literary
police force, evidently thought that It
would be Inelegant to use the Mime
word twice In two lines; so he sub
stituted 'initial' for 'first' In the second
line. Perhaps he had never re
flected that words express ideas, and
that therefore If a precise Idea re
curs, the precise word for that Idea
ought to recur. The Idea expressed
hy the word 'first' Is precise enough,
and no other English word means what
first' means. Certainly 'Initial' does
not mean 'first.' Still, the man meant
well. His misfortune was that, hav
ing picked up a good notion without
examining' It, he imagined that repe
tition was Inelegant In Itself. Repe
tition Is only wrong when It is uninten
tional, and when, being horrid to the
ear, It is ren'sonably and honestly
avoidable. On the other hand, repe
tlllon, used w ith tact and courage, may
achieve not merely elegance but posi
tive brilliance."
Here Is Bennett's style both In
theory and practice, and the practice
agrees with the theory. The passage
Is not merely clear, but It Is brilliantly
rn-ptitive. The trouble Is that Bennett
often goes out of his way to repeat
hini.-elf.

Armeirn Children Slow In Recover.
Ing F-'.rm Terrors to Which They
Wire Long Subjected.
According to Dr. Mabel Elliott, head
of the American Woman's Hospitals,
who is rant serving with the Near
East Relief at lsmid, Turkey, a large
number of Ibe Armenian children
under her care are suffering from en
larged hearts or other forms of heart
disease, due to the constant fear to
which they have been prey during the
past few years.
Relief workers In the Near East
have long been familiar with the men
tal petrifaction due to the terrible ex
perience through which these children
have passed, most of tbm having for
gotten everything of their past, their
names, their homes and their language
Included, but this Is the first Instance
that has been recorded of t lie effect of
fear on their hearts. (
The cure wdiich Dr. Elliott Is prac
ticing with these children Is a com
bination of mental and medical. First
of all, they are made to realize that
they are entirely out of danger and
among friends. Then they are put on
a special diet of nourishing foods and
certain exercises are prescribed. The
results so far have been remarkably
successful,
Lack Dramas in Verse,
It Is a curious thing, In the present
high tide of the drama, and remember
ing that the glory of English literature
Is Its poetry, that we have no 'good
modern English drams in verse. It Is
all the more remarkable because the
foremost French dramatist and the
foremost modern German dramatist
wrote their masterpieces In verse form
"Cyrano de Bergerac' by Rostand
and "Die Versunkene Glocke," by
Hauptmann,
John Masefield, when he write
plays, writes them In prose, with only
slight exceptions. And so, for the most
part, have Synge, Yeats, Lord Dun
sauy, and others. George Meredith
might have written poetic dramas In
the Elizabethan manner. Thomas
Hardy's "Dynasts" Is an Intellectual
rather than a poetic masterpiece It
has nothing of the sublime, emotional,
thrilling, transporting power of Ros
tand. We admire the author's mind
more than the work. William Lyon
Phelps In the Tala Review.
Rustless Steel.
Rustless steel seems to be a com
pletely established fact and It should
be locked Into for employment lri
various Industries, according to the
Compressed Air Magazine (Xew Tnrk).
finys this piibllcstion : "It Is reported
on German authority that the Krupp
work are paying sperlal attention to
the production of such steel. The
metal contains a large smniint of
chrome end Is said to he remarkable
for Its hardness and strength. Its
resistance to chemical action Is such
that It Is not affected by boiling In
nitric acid. It la used at a substitute
for nickel-plated metal In the manu
facture of Instruments. The firm Is
also studying the question of using
rustless steel In the manufacture of
plates for artificial teeth In place of
the gold or vulcanite now generally
employed."'

Your Paint Dollar
How Big in 5 Years?
THE best paint will be good
five or more years hence, if
properly applied. Cheap paint,
on the average, starts cracking
in twelve months.
It's what paint ewers that
you want to save not merely
a few cents per gallon in first
cost.
Cheap paint does not spread
as easily or as far as good paint.
So when you figure labor and
square yards covered, cheap
paint on the house costs as much
as good paint.
Cheap paint in practically
every instance, is the most ex
pensive you can buy.
Don't allow surfaces to rot.
It costs less to paint them.

ler are the result of 72 years
