The Committee appointed at the Mansion House to promote a national memorial to Sir Ernest Shackleton has issued an appeal for funds to this ead. "We feel," they write, "that, in the case of one who displayed such brilliant qualities of courage and leader ship, it is, a national duty that his memory should be perpetuated by some suitable memorial of a per- manent nature, so that his example should be for ever an incentive to the youth of the Empire."

FLYOSAN
COCKROACH
The Cockroach is perhaps the most common specie of insect found in dwolling places. The familiar Croton Bug or German Cockroach (Blntella Germancia) is very widely distributed throughout the United States and is recognized as a genuine pest because of its destructiveness to food, cotton, wool, leather, etc. The damage they do is not only in the product actually consumed, but in the soiling of everything with they come in contact.- Wherever they occur in any number they leave an offensive, sickening odour, well-known as the "Roach Odor" which is unpleasant and cannot be removed from shelves, dishes, etc., without soap and boiling water.
Without FLYOSAN it is a very difficult matter to bring cockroaches from their hiding places or to locate them during the daytime, as they dread the least bit of light, but FLYOSAN when sprayed about causes them to come from their hiding places at once, and a few strokes of the sprayer is sufficient to completely destroy them,
Roaches are among the commonest and most offensive of the insects, which frequent human habitation. They are under suspicion of conveying several infections.
The o pests are migratory, therefore it is necessary for one-to be constantly on the alert to prevent their invasions. This is especially true if quantities of goods are left in exposed places. To eliminate them, first spray FLYOSAN in all directions until you have located their nests, then spray daily in these places until none can be brought out.
Avoid spraying directly on food stuffs on account of fumes affecting taste.
