A COMPLETE WRECK From the After Effects of Fneu- monla Followed 1)7 Oiptheria Frequently the after effect* of ill- ne«a are more serious than the ori- giBal troubie. Thia was the case with Mrs. James B. Moir, Mutana, Saak. Mrs. Moir says: "Some years ago, while we were still living in Nova Scotia, I was taken down with a severe attack of pneumonia. I had sufficiently recovered to be around, but had not been able to go out when I was attacked with diphtheria. In my weakened state it took a terrible hold on me, and oeither my friends nor ueigiibors thought I would recover. I did, however, pull through, but was a physical wreck. The muscles of my bhroat were paralyzed, so that even a cup of water would flow back tihrough my nostrils unless they were held closed. My voice was almost inaudible, and my eyes so badly effected tihat I feared I was going to loose ray eyesight. I could only walk with assistance, and it looked as though I would be a helpless cripple. Medicine was used but did not help me. Then a neigh- bor advised Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I began taking them but had the utmost difficulty in swal- lowing them owing to the candition of my throat. However, after a coupile of boxes had been used I found it easier to take them, which was a sign they were helping me, and I felt greatly cheered. I do not know how many boxes I took, but I continued their u,se until I was as well as ever, much to the lurprise of all who knew me, as all thought I Could not get better. Since then I have several times taken the Pills when run down, ajid have always been greatly bene- &tt<d by them.' For the after effects of fevers and all wasting diseases there is no medicine can equal Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. They enrich the blood, build up the nerves, restore the appetite and bring back complete health and strength. Sold by all medicine dealers or by mail at 60 cents a box or six boxes for $3.50 from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockviile, Ont. * Story .Vgainst HiiiiseU. TIk' Duke of Connaught tells a good story against himself. Some years ago, when he was raided to the position of Lieut«nant-Coloniel of the iBt- Rifle Brigade, the late Queen Victoria commanded that he should only bo saluted as a regi- mental officer, and not as a meon- ber of the Rtiyal Family. On one occasion, hmwever. an Irish sentry, seeing the Duke and Duohesis ap- proaching, turned ouit the g\iard and gave the Royal salute. The Duke was much annoyed, and pro- ceeded to give the sergeant in charge apiece of hks roind. But the quick-^%ttod Irishnvain was equal to the ocoa-sion. "The guard, surr, '' he said, in his richest brogrue, "is for Her Rojnal Highne^is, who, as a member of the Royal Family, is entitiled to it I"' After that the Duke could say nothing. WIT .\XD WISDOM. Good luck and bad habits are seldom even on speaking terms. The man who does things can af- ford to let his wife do the talking. A peck of trouble is one thing that is mighty seldom short weight. To him who does everything in its proper time one day is worth three . There is no greater misfortune than not to be able to bear misfor- tune. Some people cast their bread upon the waters, expecting it to come- back toasted. "Is he rich?" "I don't think so, but he must be." "Why?" "I heard him say the other night that he lets bis wdfe have all the money she wants."

A church was to be renovated, and the carpenter was showing the vicar round "There seems to be a lot of dry rot in these pews," said the vicar. "That's nothing," said the carpenter, "to what there is in the pulpit." "What is the child howling for now." asked its father from the depths of his easy -chair. "He wants his own way.' snapped the mother.

St. Catharines Major Tells of Brav- ery of Canadians at Langriuarrk. Major Belsoo, 4th Battalion, wounded at Langemarck, writing home from hospital, states: "I saw many deedii performed by my own men which in an ordinary cam- paign would have won the 'Victoria Cross for them, such as binding up wounded comrades and carrying them to shelter under hot fire." He corrects an account in "Eye Witness' " statement that the Bat- talion wavered, and that Col. Birchall had to recall it. "Nobody wavered," writes Major Belson, •from start to finish," and after the first few hundred yards no of- ficer or N.C.O. had any influence on the action except in 'his imme- diate vicinity. Col. Birchall died as he lived, a gallant English gen- tleman, after stating that he was proud to lead such men." A letter from Pte. Donaldson, of the same regiment, to relatives, tells of the death of Pte. Crawford, which has not yet been listed in the casualties. Donaldson. Crawford and Pte. Hargreaves, of Merriton. were cutting through a hedge when all throe were hit. Hargreave was shot through both hips while bind- ing up Donaldson's wounds, and in this c<.)ndition crawled to assist Crawford, W'honi he found beytmd need of aid. Then IVinaldson and Hargreave snailed along the ground, through a hail of bullets, 350 vards to shelter.

First Loug Step Towards Recovery IS TO FIND IF TOUR SYMP- TOMS ARE OF KIDNEY DISEASE. Kent County Lady Did Fhisâ€" Then She Used Dodd's Kidney Pills and Was Cured. Upper Bouctouche. Kent Co., N. B., May 31st (Special).â€" Miss Gen- evieve Bastaracbe, an estimable lady living near here, is telling her friends of the benefit she has received from Dodd's Kidney Pills. "I am indeed happy to be able to state that I have been cured of Kidney Disease by Dodd's Kidney Pills,'' Mis.a' Bastarache says in an interview. "I was often so feeble I could not work. My sleep was broken and unrefreshing. I had headaches and cramps in the muscles. "I suffered from Rheumatism and Backache and was always tired and nervous. "I was in this miserable condi- tion when I decided to try Dodd's Kidney Pills, and I had not taken two boxes till I felt better, and three boxes cured me." Miss Bastaracfae made a l<jng step towards recovery when she discov- ered that her symptoms were of Kidney Disease. She then had only to use the old reliable Kidney rem- edy, Dodd's Kidney Pills, tofind a cure. Are your symptoms those of Kidnev Disease ? Thoughts for the Day. Lrberty means responsibility. That is why most men dread it. The situation that has not its duty, its ideal, was never yet occu- pied by any man. However mean your life is meet it and live it ; do not shun it and call it hard names. If you are ever in doubt what to do it is a good rule to ask ourselves what we should wish on the morrow we had done. Manners are the happy ways jf doing things â€" each one a stroke of geniue or of love â€" now repeated and hardened into usage. Kind looks, kind words, kind acts and warm hamlshakes â€" thest' are a secondarj- means of grace when men are in trouble and fight- ing their unseen battles. Die when I may.

Little sister had not been well and had been especially trying to small Johnny all day. Finally his patience came to an end. "Mo- ther, " he asked, "don't you want little sdster to be a good wife when she grows up I" "Of course," eaJd the mother. "Well, you make me give everything to her 'cause she's littler'n me. But you're jittler'n fatlier. and when he comes home, you say â€" Here's your slippers and magazine, dear'" â€" and befop? his mother could move Johany tore his train of cars from the scream- ing baby. "If we don't begin to train her she'll be a terrible wife," he said as he slammed the door. CLEAR-HEADED Head Bookkeeper Mtr.«t Be Reliable The chief booLkeeper in a large business house in one of the West- ern cities speaks of the harm tea and coffee did for him : "My wife and I drank our first cup of Postum. a little over two years ago. and we have used it ever since, to the entire exclusion of tea and coffee. It happened in this way : "I had an attack of pneumonia, which left me with dyspepsia, or neuralgia of the stomach. My 'cup of cheer' had always been tea or coffee. But I became convinced, after a time, tliat they aggravated my stomach trouble. I happened to mention the matter to my gro- cer one day and he suggested that I give Postum a trial. "Next day it came and we liked it so much that we will never change back ; for I am a well man to-day and have used no medicine. "My work as chief bi>okkeeper in our Co.'s branch house here is of a very confining nature. During my tea and ct>ffee drinking days I was subject to nervousness and the 'blues' in addition to my sick spells. These have left me since I began using Postum and I can conscien- tiously recommend it to those whose work con'ines them to long hours of severe mental e.xertion.'

Captain Kidd's booty was a trifle compared with that which awaits the sea-rover who shall regularly pierce the British blockade and reach German ports. During the CivU War the most profitable game anybody played was that of blockade- running. It was so difficult to get cotton out of the South that price in Liverpool rose to 20 times the normal figure. Hence a ship that carried guns and various munitions to the Soutli and then took home a load of cotton killed two prize birds with one stone. English shipowners carried on a great trade. The ship R. E. Lee. \ built by the British at a cost of ; $160,000, very soon bore away $2,- 1 000,000 in gold. j Another ship made eight trips : from Bermuda to Wilmington, j North Carolina, and earned a pro- 1 fit of 700 per cent, on the co.st of the vessel. A third boat made 22 such journeys and earned still mope. It was a hazardous game, but the stakes were high, and many a bold seaman was willing to en- gage in it. There were actually hundreds of instances of blockade running and an average of one capture for every four and a half trips was made bv the Union naw. Avoid Isiug Kerosene There is probably no one who ha« to build fires who has not at some time yielded to the temptation to hurry tlhinge up a bit by pouring kerosene into the stove, although everyone is probably aware of what a dangerous practice this is. Even though there is no flame in the stove, the kerosene may ignite the gas in hot ashes, with results dieas- trous to the fire-builder and his surroundings. A siiuple way to meet the diffi- culty in getting your fire started is to keep a tin can with a little kero- sene in it in some safe place. Stand some small pieces of kindling in the liquid, replacing the sticks by oth- ers as they are used. The wood will absorb the kerosene just as a lamp- wick does, and will soon become thoroughly soaked. Include some of the prepared sticks with j-our other kindling in laying your fire, and j-ou will oi>- tain all the advantages of the use of kerosene with, none of the dan- ger.

Grant, of 3 White St. would succumb to the deadly ravages of advanced kidney trouble. "My first attacks of back- ache and kidney trouble began years ago. For six years that dull gnawing pain has been present. When 1 ex- erted myself it was terribly intensified. If I caught cold the pain was unen- durable. I used most ever>-thing, but nothing gave that certain grateful re- lief that came from Dr. Hamilton's Pills of Mandrake and Butternut. In- stead of being bowed down with pain, to-day I am strong, enjoy splendid appetite, sleep soundly Lost proper- ties have been instilled into my blood â€" cheeks are rosy with color, and I thank that day that I heard of so grand a medicine as Dr. Hamilton's Pills." Every woman should use these pills regularly because good health pays, and it's good vigorous health tliat comes to all who use Dr. Hamilton's Mandrake and Butternut Pills.
