An American and a Scotsman were having a discussion on success in life. Sald the former: "Success is easler than most people think . Why, when 1 wasa young man I knew a youth who got a job in a big city hotel, and it wasn't long before he owned the whole place." The Scotsman sagely nodded "Aye, no doot," he said, "but since then they've invented cash registers." te rn ment The color put into a girl's cheeks by milk and leafy vegetables rarely rubs off, 5 Hams' Pink Plils contain the elements necessary to enrich the blood, and this better blood strengthens the nerves and all the organs of the body, brings a glow of health to the cheeks, bright. ness to the eyes and a general feeling 4 renewed health and strength. Miss Florence Johnson, Btratford, Ont, who has proved 'the value of Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills in cases of this kind, says: --""A few years ago I was great- ly run down; my blood was very poor and my nervous system in bad'shape. The doctor sald my condition was due to improper diet and lack of fresh air. I then comm eating the food he advised and went out daily for a walk, 1 did not improve, however, and was much discouraged. A friend advised me to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, I lost no time in getting a supply and can truthfully say that when I had finished the first box I could note an improvement. From then on the pro- gress was steady. My complexion, which had beén pale and sallow, be- gan to take on a healthy glow, I felt a great deal stronger and my appetite became normal, and soon my health wae fully restored, Before using Dr. Williams' Pink 'Pllls 1 did not know anything about: their wonderful quali: ties, but now I recommend them to all suffering from. similar ailments."

Have you ever wondered how some of the queer words and expressions we use to-day first came into the lang- uage? The expression "Raining cats and dogs" originated in the days when sea- men used to refer to waves on the water before a storm as "cat"spaws," whilst the dog has always been regard- ed in northern mythology as sym- bolic of wind. Consequently, when a heavy rainstorm was occompanied hy high winds, sallors would say "it was coming down cats and dogs." We still use the expression "big wig," although these articles are a fashion of the past. In other days, however, a person's importance was Judged by the size of the wig he wore, and therefore the highest in the land were known to the less fortunate as "big wigs." "Pin-money" is an expression that serves to remind us of the days when pins were expensive, and husbands al- lowed their wives special sums for their purchase. Later on the expres- sion was applied to a wife's pocket- money. Another word that has an interest. ing origin is "handicap." This is prob. ably derived from "hand in the cap," as in former times it was the eustom to draw lots Teoma a hat or cap. BETTER GR GREEN TEA IMPORTED. Many think that those who drink Green Tea are more critical judges of quality than those who drink black. Such would seem to be the case, be- cause some years ago great quantities of poor quality Japan and China Green Teas were brought into Canada. The demand for this type of tea soon fell off. Now, however, the much finer quality of India and Ceylon Greens, imported mostly by the Salada Tea Company, has sharply revived the de- mand by those who enjoy the distine- tive flavor of Green Tea." ee fen Lessons in "Curtsies" for Presentation at Court. __ A visitor to one of London's fashion: able @chools of dancing might be ex- cused if he came away with the im: pression that dancing had gone out and calisthenics taken its place among the debutantes, for practically any time of day those who care to look will see little else but long lines of attrac: tively gowned young women going through extraordinary (to the un- initiated) exercises. In fact, dancing |' mistresses here are finding it exceed- ingly profitable to include '"curtsey lessons" in thelr curriculum. To many debutantes the first obelis- ance before the King and Queen is the most. terrifying moment of the whole business of being presented, for there is always the fear of overbalancing, or 'making an ungpaceful and consequent- ly very ugly curtsey. Naturally, every | "deb": fo look her best at her first court appearance, which explains tsey i eying y {8 much more diffi- eult than orig would think, and re- quires a lot of selt-possession to per- [form creditably, particularly with the 'consciousness that many hundred eyes are watching.

Dr. Truman, Queen Victoria's den- tist, was a gentleman of alert mind and eccentric habits. He invented an insulated covering for the wires of the submarine cable and made a id able fortune therefrom, He was an enthusiastic collector of rare books and prints; that hobby was the chief Joy of his later-years. He was not penurious, but he liked old clothes; and in his old age his at- tachment to garments fit only for the rag bag became the despair of his household. The most precious and shabbiest article of his attire was an ancient silk hat. He never wore any, other kind of hat, and he had worn the same one for untold years. "Attempts were made at his home to get rid of it," records a recent writer, Mr. W. T. Spencer, in a volume of reminiscences, "but he always had the hat repaired. So many repairs were made on it that if you examined it closely you had more difficulty fn recognizing the original silk than in recognizing the grafted portions. "One day when he was taking a bath in his house--the tub was of the old- fashioned marble type--he forgot to turn the water off, and it ran oyer the edge and leaked through the floor. Immediately underneath was the hall, and on the"hall table lay that silk hat of his upside down as he had placed it there. When the bath overflowed the water dripped into the hall and right into the hit! "The hat became a bucket, filling rapidly before the leak was discover. ed, and by that time, as the household were overjoyed to see, the silk hat was bulging woefully. "Surely he'll not be able to wear that old thing again!" they thought. But they reckoned without their mas- ter. * 'Even now I've had it done up!' he sald -to me as he realated the adven- ture. And, sure enough, it was on his head. "The very last time I saw Dr. Tru. man (he died in 1900) he was still wearing the same old silk hat." mente ene Ap ens A good laugh and a long sleep, the best cures in the doctor's book.--Prov- erbs of Ireland.
