The weather is changeable--balfny and springlike one day, raw cold and piercing the next. It is such sudden changes of weather that sets the pangs and tortures tortures of rheumatism, lumbago and sciatica going. But it must be borne in mind that although weather condition condition start the pains, the trouble is deeply rooted in the blood, a^nd can only be cured through the blood. All the lotions and liniments in the world can't cure rheumatism. Rubbing Rubbing may seem to ease the pain while you are rubbing, but there its value ends. Only through- the blood can you cure rheumatism. That's why Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have so many thousands of cures of this trouble to their credit. The new, rich blood which they actually make drives out the poisonous acid and rheumatism is vanquished. Among many sufferers from rheumatism who have been cured by this medicine is Mr. C. H. McGee, freight shed fore man for the G. T. R. at Peterboro, who says:--"In the course of my work I am naturally exposed to all kinds of weather, with the result that about two years ago I contracted rheumat ism which settled in my legs. z At times I could scarcely walk, and often had to quit my day's work owing to the stiffness and the pain. I triec different remedies without getting any help until I began the use of Dr. Williams' Williams' Pink Pills. I used six boxes of these and can say that I am about as well as ever I was. I still take the pills occasionally, and I hope that my experience may be of benefit to some other rheumatic sufferer."

So tiiey sit all day in the sunlit royal garden, with its faience flower pots marked with fleur de lys, and watch the changing lights on the Bay of Naples and think of what life used to hold for them before the war came to change it utterly. The sea once came to the very wall of the garden where they sit. Below the balustrade was a sea pool where the courtiers of Carlo III. fished from the terrace.- Later, when the people of Naples voted the Bourbons out and the house of Savoy in as rulers of United Italy, Garabaldi gave the palace palace to Alexandre Dumas, and the Government of Italy had no end of trouble to get it back from the famous famous author. But the sçldiers who wander wander through the spacious rooms of the palace to-day know none of these things. They know only what they have given to their-country. They merely wait the issue i$f war. o-- -- SICKLY BABIES Sickly babies--little ones who are troubled with their stomach and bow- elg; whose teething is painful; diges tion bad and who cannot sleep well-- can be made healthy and happy with Baby's Own Tablets.

The ambulance surgeons and many of the field; hospitals" of Europe use gasoline for. thé first cléansing of wounds of soldiers brought in from the battlefields. According to a writer in the British Medical Journal, the skin and then the surface of the wound ape cleansed by vigorous rubbing rubbing with a swab of absorbent cotton soaked in gasoline. Swabs of cotton are wound round a pair of artery forceps forceps or a probe soaked in gasoline, and the wound is cleansed from the surface inward- as far as the instrument instrument can be pushed. The process is continued until the swabs come out perfectly clean. The gasoline does not cause any special smarting, and patients do not complain of its use;-j but if the gasoline is left on the skin : and strips of adhesive plaster are applied applied close together over the dressing, so that they prevent evaporation, the Jskin will blister. Gasoline properly used seems to clean up not only the surface but the depths of wounds better better than anything else that has been tried. It has been used in Canadian hospitals and in many American iron and steel foundries, for many years to clean contused or lacerated wounds that contain deeply embedded dirt. -- C* Unique Collection.

PALACE A HOME FOR CRIPPLES Startling Phenomenon Due to Arrive Next Summer. Peace is coming; and with peace comes a comet--one of the largest on record--which is due to make its'bow to this sphere during the early summer. summer. "The peace comet," as it is appropriately appropriately termed, is. travelling at the rate of 131 miles a second, or over 1,134,000 miles per day, and this is its first appearance for 60,000 years. A vivid imagination would be needed to conjure up the happenings of our world when another 60,000 years have passed, and when the 1917 comet makes its reappearance. A German, by name Professor Wolf, of Heidelberg, is responsible for the 1917* comet, and he first discovered it on April 27th, 1916. Now the American American observatories have sighted the spectacle, and have cabled the news to Greenwich Observatory, says London Answers. We are told that the coming comet will be one of the most astonishing and wonderful of all phenomena. It is exceptionally large, and the nearest nearest point reached by it to the earth will be 104,000,000 miles. Yet in July of this year it will be visible to the naFpd eye, though astronomers Says She Suffered For Many Years Then Dodd's Kidney Pills Cured Her Kidney Troubles Mrs. Felix Ascah Found No Relief in Doctors or Hospital Treatment, but Dodd's Kidney Pills Brought a Speedy Cure.
