Indigestion and Similar Troubles Must be Treated Throu^lv the Blood. Indigestion can be treated in, many ways, but it can only be cured in one way-through the blood. Purgatives cannot, curé: indigestion. By: main foreettyey move on the.fpod still indiday indiday Ann, the cook, took herself off for ' gestéd.

Then it was that a strange thing happened---so very strange that I can hardly believe it myself. "Ouch!" sqeaked a husky voice, "Ouch, my poor head!" "Who^s that?" gasped Jane, dropping the colander with à crash. "To think," continued thé voice mournfully, "that I have been -raised in rich earth and dug up for this ! For this--to be boiled in my jacket." It was a potato! A big, fat potato, that had fallen to the floor. He was leaning miserably against the leg of the table, the tears pouring in torrents from his dozen eyes. Jane was so sorry for the poor fellow that she its power, and, makes the trouble chronic. The digestive organs can never do the work properly until they are strong enough to do it themselves. Nothing can givo the stomach, that power but the new, rich, red blood so abundantly supplied by Dr. Williams* Williams* Pink Pills. So the reason for the success of this medicine is plain. Nothing can stimulate the glands and nothing cari absorb the nourishment from the food but pure red blood. And Dr.' Williams* Pink Pills surpass all other medicines in giving that new, rich bïoqd. Miss B. E. Johnson,. Hemford, N.S., says: "For months I was a great sufferer from indigestion; food oY any ldnd was distasteful to forgot how surprised she was.

"Are you crying because I did not take off your skins? Oh, I will--I will!" cried Jane all in one breath, running for the potato knife. "There, I knew you would!" said the potato radiantly.' "Brothers, sisters sisters ! do you hear, what she says ? " "Hurrah!" cried all the other potatoes from their pot of boiling water. This Was all so very interesting that Jane quite forgot that it was work.

If the men who would make a pun would pick a pocket, what are we to say of the abandoned creature who makes jokes upon proper names? He may not know it, but he is ripe for penal servitude, says the London Globe. Everybody wjth a name upon which punning is possible remembers the anguish of the first days at school when, trembling wretch, he had to disclose his unfortunate cognomen to inquisitorial bigger boys, and watched watched with apprehension as the possibilities possibilities of the name for word play brought a delighted grin to the questioner. questioner. And the sorrow's crowh of sorrow was that every puerile humorist humorist made exactly the same pun; so that to the indignity of having one's name made the subject, of jest -and mirth was added the intense ennui produced by listening to the same not too brilliant jeu ' d'esprit over and over again. Schoolboys are very tenacious tenacious of anything that appeals to their crude sense of humor; and the unhappy new boy was never allowed to hear the last of the exquisite joke. There are certain formulae about name jokes in the ranks of our regular regular army. Every recruit called Murphy Murphy is immediately rechristened "Spud"--the derivation is obvious. Also, in the same way a Lee becomes "Gypsy," his comrades feigning tP believe that he must of necessity belong belong to the famous Rqmany family. All Clarks (or Clarkes) are "Nobby," but the applicability of this nickname is a mystery. In the_ Days of Theodore Hook and his merry-friends jokes upon proper proper names were quite the thing; and, while the auditors grinned, the victim victim bore the infliction with as much dignity as he could summon up. As a specimen of Hookian wit of this kind the following- may serve: "A humorist humorist of this epoch (I am not quite sure whether it was the sprightly Theodore himself ) invited to the house of a Mr. Pepper, greeted his host with the words: "How happy you must be, Mr. Pepper, to see your friends all mustered!" A better instance, perhaps, perhaps, is Hook's impromptu when a tax collector called Winter was seen to be at the door: Here comes Mr. Winter collector of taxes, I advise you to pay him whatever he axes. You had much better pay him without any flummery, Though Winter's his name his proceedings proceedings are summary. This form of pun is no new one, fort on à country ramble.

Are the Most Virulent and Irritant of Poisons: That the Germans were determined to break the agreement of the Hague Convention by which the powers promised promised to abstain from the use of all asphyxiating gases is evident from the fact that their patent office records records show that Krupps patented a gun for throwing poisonous gas bombs some years before the war. The specifications show that it would throw a 150-pound bomb a distance of 400 yards, causing the death of everybody everybody within a radius of 400 feet. The use of asphyxiating gases in the form of bombs and other contrivances contrivances is really a revival of the ancient ancient methods of warfare applied to modern conditions. The gas bomb is a modernized "stink-pot," which the Chinese have employed from time immemorial; immemorial; but whereas the old Chinese Chinese "stink-pot" merely rendered men unconscious, poisonous gases employed employed to-day are the most virulent and irritant of poisons, and few men recover recover from the effects after they have inhaled the gas to any extent.
