T i .KEEP CHILDREN WELL * DURING HOT WEATHER Every mother knows how fatal 'the hot summer months are to small children. Cholera infantum, j diarrhoea, dysentry and stomach \ ^troubles are rife at this time and cften a precious little life is lost' after only a few hours illness. The mother who keeps Baby'a Own Tab- 4 lets in the house feels safe. The occasional use of the Tablets pre- vent stomach and bowel troubles, or if the trouble comes suddenly 1 as it generally does the Tablets * will bring the baby safely through. The Tablets are aold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. BUILDING THE "IGLOO." < t How the Eskimos Erect a Snow House in Labrador. Only one thing, the assurance of * a night's shelter of comparative t comfort, makes a winter's sledge journey across the desolate, inter- minable wastes of Labrador bear- * able. The method of securing this , shelter is described by Dr. S. K. Hutton in "Among the Eskimos of * Labrador." > "Wha.t will you do if you cannot ( reach home?" I asked Johannes, f one afternoon, as we labored , through the drifting snow, in the [ teetln of an arctic storm. 4 "Stop and build a snow house," said he. v "Will you be able to find 'good snow in this weather?" * "Find good snow?" said Johan- t nes> with a look of surprise. "I can always find good snow." When the afternoon light began to grow dull, he pulled out one of the big enow-knives, an appallnig * weapon, with a bone, handle and a blade a yard long Brandishing ' this, he trotted from side to side, prodding here and jabbing there. *He was "finding snow." Soon Jul- ius stopped the sledge, and they held a consultation When the pWe was chosen, it *was a gently sloping hillside, for there the snow hardens the best, *my drivers were soon at work. Each man armed himself with his huge snow-knife, and between them they marked a circle on the snow. Then Johannes retired to the middle and began to dig. He first in.i-V a Vedge-shaped hole, to give himself start ; and then from the side* of the hole he carved great slabs of the frozen snow. I judged them to be about ix or eight inches thick, Vvo or three feet long and eighteen Inches high, and they were nearly As heavy as stone. ', Johannes just tumbled them out of his hole as fast as he could cut them, and as the hole grew I saw that the l<abs were all slightly curved. Julius seized each slab as it toppled out, and carried it gin- gerly to the edge of the circle. He set th* slabs on edge, side by side, a/id chipped them a little from the top, so that they leaned inward. He pared away the first few with h\s knife, BO that the lowe*t ring formed the beginning of a spiral. fie followed the spiral up, prop- iping each slab against its neigh- J>or, and chipping its edge so that "it leaned well inward. 1 Meanwhile Johannes got nearer -and nearer the wall with his dig- . ging, and his work got harder and harder, for instead of tumbling the slabs out. he -had to pick them up * and hand them to Julius over the *, leaning wall. I thought the wall looked frail and unsafe, but Julius seemed to think otherwise, for he crawled up on it and leaned over * to see how Johannes was getting on * inside-. As a matter of fact, hie weight only pressed the slabs toge- ther a bit more firmJy. At last the spiral was finished all but the "key -stone." Julius sprawl- ed' on the side of the house, while Johannes's hands- shoved a big slab through the opening that still re- mained at the top. Julius laid it over the hole, and chipped the edges away with his knife until it gently dropped into place. A scraping and, trampling noise was next heard inside the house; that was Johannes smoothing the floor. Meanwhile, Julius was filling all the crevices with enow, to keep the wind out. Soon Johannes was ready to come out. His eword poked out suddenly and slashed a doorway in the wall, and then the man himself crawled out. The house was finished.

It takes considerable courage for a doctor to deliberately prescribe only food for a despairing patient, instead of resorting to the usttil list of medicines. There are some truly scientific physicians among the present gen- eration who recognize and treat conditions as they are and should be treated, regardless of the value to their pockets. Here's an in- stance : "Four years ago I was taken with severe gastritis and nothing would stay on my stomach, so that I was on the verge of starvation. ''I heard of a doctor who had a summer cottage near me a speci- alist from N. Y. and as a last hope sent for him. "After he examined me careful- ly he advised me to 'try a email quantity of Grape-Nuts at first, then as my stomach became stron- ger to eat more. "I kept at it and gradually got so I could eat and digest three tea- spoonfuls. Then I began to have color in my face, memory became cleTir, where before everything seemed a blank. My limbs got stronger and I could walk. So I steadily recovered. "Now, after a year on Grape- Nuts I weigh 153 Ibs. My people were surprised at the way I grew fleshy and strong on this food."

It was a glorious day in the mid- dle of harvest and the workers were busy in the cornfield. The mighty reaper was going its round, its huge blades cutting and slashing with aJmost startling rapidity and speed. As it approached a corner of the field several birds were seen to rise suddenly from among the long stalks. The farmer himself was there and on noticing the birds he thought that there would be a nest there. He was a kindly man and as the reaper approached the spot he felt a twinge of pity for the helpless little nestlings, but to stop the reaper would mean trouble, which he knew his men would not take quietly. The reaper tore along and was almost on the spot, when the farmer sprang forward he could not let it happen. "Stop!" he cried. 'Stop! There's a nest here. Stop till I re- move it." With grumbling and comments on his "softness," which were quite audible to the fanner, his men unwillingly obeyed. The farmer hastily strode- forward to the spot where the birds had risen, and there he saw- which transfixed him with horror instead of a nest, his own little three-yeair- old daughter, sound asleep, with a posey of wild flowers clutched in her chubby hand. But for his kind heart in wishing to save the birds he would have seen his own child torn to an awful death. Plaited skirts always have the plaits taped underneath to keep the straight line.

It was the habit of Lord Eldon, in recalling the time when that great but not entirely noble Eng- lishman was attorney-general, to close his speeches with some re- marks justifying his own charac- ter. At the trial of Home Tooke, El- don, speaking of his own reputa- tion, said, "It is the inheritance I have to leave my children, and by God's help, I will leave it unim- paired." Here he shed tears, and to the astonishment of those present, Mit- ford, the solicitor-general, also be- gan to weep. "Just look at Mitford!" eaid a bystander to Home Tooke. "What on earth is he crying for?" "He is crying to think what a small inheritance Eldon's children are likely to get!" replied Tooke, whose wit was ready and biting. BREAD A FOOD FOR AGES. Unleavened bread was common in the days of Abraham. In early England people had no other v..nth- od of making bread than by roast- ing corn and beating it in mortars, then wetting it into a kind of coarse cake. In 1596 rye bread and oatmeal formed a considerable part of the diet of the middle classes. During the reign of Charles I. bar- ley bread was used. White wheat bread' did not become popular until recent years wihen bread baking a& home ceased to become common and bakeries began to thrive. When ironing and folding table- cloths fold one week in three and the next in four. This will prevent them from wearing thin at the folds. Cholera and all summer com- plaints are so quick in their action that the cold hand of death is upon the victims before they are aware that danger is near. If attacked do not delay in getting the proper medicine. Try a dose of Dr J. D. Kellogg's Dysentery Cordial, and you will get immediate relief. It acts with wonderful rapidity and never fails to effect a cure. Two are company ; three a house party. Mlnard's Liniment Cure* Burns, Etc. THE EASIEST WAY.

A Canton, Ohio, concern was con- victed of selling a soft drink con- taining cocaine.. The court consid- ered a $25 fine sufficient punish- ment. A St. Louis house sold a powder for infants that was said to making "teething" easy ; it con- tained opium. A $10 fine was suffi- cient punishment. An "agreeable and efficient tonic" was found to contain cocaine, although the pre- sence of this drug was not stated. In this case the court suspended sentence. "Some day." says the Journal of the American Medical Association, "a court may be found tha.t will consider the crimes of making drug fiends of young peo- ple, o' poisoning babies with opium mixture*, or of killing women with head<i/che powders, as serious of- fenses." Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills are made according to a formula in use nearly a century ago among the Indians, and learned from them by Dr. Morse. Though repeated at- tempts have been made, by physi- cians and chemists, it has bron found impossible to improve the formula or the fills. Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills are a household remedy through- out the world for Constipation and all Kidney and Liver troubles. They act promptly and effectively, and Cleanse the System QUITE OPTIONAL. "When does the half-past five train leave?" asked a man of a railway porter. "Five-thirty," was the reply. "Well," continued the querist, ^'the church clock is twenty-seven minutes past, the post-office clock is twenty-five minutes past, and your clock m thirty-two minutes past. Now which clock am I to go by?" "Yes can go by any clock yer like," responded the porter, "but yer can't go by the train, for it's gone !" A WONDERFUL DISCOVERY An eminent scientist, the other day, gave his opinion that the most wonderful discovery of recent years was the discovery of Zam-Buk. Just think ! As soon as a single thin layer of Zam-Buk is applied to a wound or a' sore, such injury is in- sured against blood poison ! Not one species of microbe has been found that Zam-Buk doee not kill! Then again. As soon as Zam-Buk is applied to a sore, or a cut, or bo skin disease, it stops the smarting. That is why children are such friends of Zam-Buk. , Again. As soon as Zam-Buk is applied to a wound or to a diseased part, the cells beneath the skin's surface are so stimulated that new healthy tissue is quickly formed. Thie forming of fresh healthy tissue from below is Zam-Buk's secret of healing. This i why Zam-Buk cures are permanent. Only the other day Mr. Marsh, of 101 Delorimer Ave., Montreal, called upon the Zam-Buk Co. and told them that for over twenty-five years he had been a martyr to ec- zema. His hands were at one time so covered with sores that he had to sleep in gloves. Four years ago Zam-Buk was introduced to him, and in a few months it cured him. To-day over three years after his cure of a disease he had for twenty- five' years he is still cured.
