According to the best medical au torities, fully three-fourths of - the people of the civilized world suffer in some form from costiveness or ir- regular action of the bowels. ' There fs no doubt that many distressing di- | seases are caused by constipation. It} gives rise to sick and bilious head- aches, jaundice. heartburn, floating! specks before the eyes, catarrh of the | stomach, biliousness and the pain-| ful, troublesome piles. Therefore, it} is of supreme importance to health | that the bowels be kept regular. | Simple food, fruit, etc., should be] usd: and rich food and stimulants | of all kinds avoided. This, with the | use of Milburn's Laxa-Liver Pills to] regulate and establish healthy action | of the bowels cannot fall to give] permanent relief in the most obsti-| nate cases. , { Mrs, Letitia Wainman, Orillia, Ont., | writes: --"From a child I was always | very badly constipated, and I can| well remember when quite young, my mother giving me senna tea near- ly every. it.

The girl friends of the bride show atten- tion by making cakes of various kinds to be partaken of at the marriage feast. Other gifts .there are none. And this is a custom that one could wish were more general. There is no wedding cake either, as we under. stand it, but each guest receives a kind of sweet cake of the substance of cracknel biscuits, made in the form of a ring about ten inches in i{ameter, FOUND DEAD AT PLOUGH. --=Property Changes Bloomfield, Dec. .2.--Death came | very suddenly to Harry Shrubbs, a resident of this place tor many years. | He was nd dead behind a plough on the farm of Charles Fraleigh, where he was working. .

She studied in Paris and also in Berlin. In 1860 she came to America, and Sang in many of the great cities in Canada and the United States. The last years of her life were spent in England. One day;"while visiting at the house of a friend who lived in rural England, she was taking her daily walk through the fields when it began to rain. She had no rain- coat or umbrella with her, so was obliged to seek shelter in a pietur- esque little cottage near hy. The old woman who lived in the cottage wel- comed her and brought her best chair for her to sit on. The rain kept pouring down and Jenny Lind tried to amuse herself as well as she could. A bird was singing In a cage in the window. "What is the name of your bird?" said the visitor. 'Jenny Lind," the good old lady replied. "And why do you call him Jenny Lind?"'/ "Be- cause he is the finest singer in the world." The prima dopna smiled and asked, '"Have you ever heard her sing?" 'Oh, no, no! Such a great pleasure is only for rich people." "Would you like to hear her?" "So much, that I think I would die happy if I could hear her sweet voite but once." y The singer stretched out her hand and sald: "Iam Jenny Lind, and you will hear me sing. Call in your neighbors and we will have a con- cert." When Jenny Lind's friends, searching for her with umbrellas and mackintoshes; found her, she was singing "Auld Lang Syne' to a room- full of happy country women.--C. Murray, Jr. IV. The Only Guilty Man. A governor of a southern state who was accustomed to visit the jail every year went to see if any of the prisoners could be pardoned and set free. "I," said one, "am here for a murder I never committed." "I admit," said the next, "that I killed a 'man, but I did it in self-de- fence." Then the governor went to the third man and asked him why he was in prison. "They say I stole, but I never stole as much as a pin." So the governor went on and spent an hour asking the prisonegs ~ why they were in there. Not one df them, pleaded guilty. As he was passing through the yard he met a stalwart youth, who bid the governor good morning, and passed on. "Come back, my young man. Do you not want to be pardoned?" "Yes, your Excellency," said the youth, "I would like my freedom, but why do I de- serve it." "Why are you here?" "For stealing horses, sir." And you are.not guilty," "Oh, yes, I am, and- 1 have three more years to serve." Since you are the only guilty man in here, you might contaminate the. other men, so I shall lessen your time to three months." Next morn- ing the youth was set free, and tne last word heard of him "was that he was a good citizéen.--Helen Lumb, t Senior T..rd. The Reward of Honesty. One bright May morning two little girls stood on the market square selling lace. Their names were Mary and Muriel., Mary's home was in a distant part of the city. Her mother was an invalid, and although she could do little else she was able to 'make fine lace, which her daughter sold. Muriel Mved with an aunt, who was very poor. While they were waiting for cus- tomers a rich gentleman passed, and the sight 'of the lace reminded him of his daughter's wish' to have some lace for her new dress. Golng up to Mary, he took the last plece of lace and said, "What a fine piece of lace! How do you sell it? "Although it looks very fine," replied Mary, "it is not perfect because mother dropped a couple of stitches in making it." "Yes, that is so, little girl, but is it wise to point out the defects of your stock to customers?" "It is better than being dishonest," replied Mary. done.

After he was gone, Muriel said, "Why did you tel. him that a stitch had been dropped He will nédver look at my lace till he gets home." Mary replied, "i would rather not sell any lace than tell a lie." Next day the gentleman purchased lace from Mary, but never spent an- other ceént at Muriel's stand.

When the .boat started two big tugs turned it around, a big gun fired, the crowds of people on the pler waved and cheered, and then we were off. Dur ing the first four days the sea was very calm, but then it got rough, and the waves came right over the ship. One day 1 was up at the front of the ship with a number of boys, when a wave came over the side. The wind was blowing hard, and when we started to run it blew us against the railings. My brother and I were drenched. One morning we saw a big iceberg, and all the people crowded to one side of the ship to seg/it, so that the decks were slanting: When we came pear land a tug came and stopped the ship.' The captain pulled down the "flag and put up a green one. Every passenger had to pass the of- ficer who came off the tug, as he wag a doctor. There were a number of people who- had some disease, and they were, taken off the ship and landed on an island. If they had been allowed to land, they might have spread their disease all over Canada.--Charles Stanley, aged 13 years.

He also sald that he would come and visit the new Cataraqui school next year, for he Is very glad we are going to have a new school.

ALEXANDER You "think Aothidg good can come out of ( any} ut volley ball did. It was invented and first played there Volley ball can be played outdoors or in the gym, in a backyard, vacant lot, school yard, or attic. All the equipment needed is a net, about the same size as a tennis net, a couple of posts about 734 feet high, and a ball When Mary a little smaller and about-half as heavy as a basket ball. . Set the posts in the ground or on the gym floor about 25 feet from each other. Stretch the net between them, the top of it level with the top of the posts. If you can't get a net, a rope stretched from the top of one post to another will do. Mark out your court about 25 feet wide by 50 feet long: A basket ball will do if the kind of ball described above can not be had. The game can be 'played by any number of people from two to a dozen or more. The opposing teams are posted on opposite sides of the net. To start the game one person acts as server. The server places himself with one foot on the back line of the court away from the net and bats the ball over it with the palm of his hand. The players on the o ing side fry to bat it back over the met! If it touches the ground before they can do so, it counts one score for server's side. If they are able to knock it back then it is up to the server's team to return it. If they aré unable to do so and it totiches the ground, it counts one score for the opposing side. When- ever the ball touches the ground on one side of the net, it counts one score for the opposing-side. The team which first makes a certain pum. ber of points may be declared the win- ner, or the game may be played for a certain period of time the team mak ing the greatest number of points in that time winning. Considerable science and team work may be developed in knocking the ball from 'one person to another on the same side until a chance comes to bat it over the net into am open spac ES nat p iy one of opposing si (Next week: - H.
