To guard against disease, to pro- long life, to insure health, strength ind vigor to every organ you cannot possibly find a means so effective as Dr. Chase’s Nerve Food, the blood 'builder and nerve rcsloi'ative. Dr. Czhasc's Nere~F00d is compos- ed of the very elements of nature which go to form new, rich, redblood, and this accounts for its phenomenal success as a system builder. It is as certain as the laws of nature, be- cause it gets away down at the foun- dation of disease and cures by making the blood pure and rich. ‘ Mrs. E. McLaughlin, 95 Parliament it.

Few bodily afflictions are more terâ€" rible than disease of the heart. To live in constant dread and exphcm‘ tion of death, sudden and with last farewells unspoken, is for most peo- ple more awful to contemplate than the most serious lingering illness, The slightest excitement brings sufâ€" fering and danger to such people. For several years Mrs. Gravel, wife of P.H.A.Gravel, foreman in Barry’s Cigar factory, St, John’s suburb, Quebec, was such a sufferer, but thanks to Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills she is again in the enjoyment of good health. Mrs, Gravel says :â€"â€" "My general health was bad for several years, my appetite was poor, and I was easily tired, but it was the frequent sharp pains and violent: palpitation of my heart which caused me the greatest alarm. I tried many medicines, and was treated by sever- al doctors, but in vain. Finally I, became so poorly that I was not able to do any household work, and was frequently confined to 'my bed. At the suggestion of one of my. friends Idecided to try Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. After taking a few boxes I_ began to gain new strength and Vigor. The pains in my heart were less frequent and less severe, and in every way my health. was improv- ing. Icontinued usinglhe pills until I had taken eight boxes, whenI had completely recovered my, health.

I am] very. thankful to Dr. Wilo liam's’ Pinkl Pill-s, for they. have truly released me from much suffering, and I hope that others may be induced to try this wonderful medicine." ' Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills cure by go- ing to the root of the disease. They renew and, build up the blood, and strengthen the nerves, thus driving disease from the system. Avoid imiâ€" tations by, insisting that .every box you purchase is enclosed in a wrap- per bearing the full trade mark, Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People. If your, dealer does not keep them they will be sent pos‘tpaid at 50 cents a box, or six boxes for $2.50, by addressing the Dr. \Villiams‘ Medi‘ Cine C0,, Brockville, Ont. .â€"â€"â€"‘°â€"â€"-â€"â€"â€" LOVE FOR ANIMALS. Several Instances Whore Nlonumcuts llrivo linen Erin-ted In Their Ilonoui'. Queen Victoria’s love for animals is proverbial. It is not generally knOWn that she has had a cemetery laid out at Osborne for the interment of her deceased pets, from horses down to cats. Over the grave of each animal is raised a small monument with the’ hisiory of each engraved thereon in plain language. Several men are specially employed to keep the grounds in order. The cemetery is not open to the inspection of the pub- lic Aliho-ugh :muny historians have declared the story of geeSe saving "the oily that sat upon seven hills” was a myth, the truth remains that the story was'the cause of the erection of the magnificent bridge across the Tiber to commemorate the famous geese who saved the Capital of Rome from being destroyed by cackling in the night, and thus a'prprising the inhabitants of danger. The bridge has been in use for over 200 years, and was built at the desire and expense of the Pope. Frederick the Great built a church in memory of one of his fav- orite war horses killed in a battle with the Russians. The church stands near Posen on the eastern bor- der, constructed of white stone which time has failed to deteriorate, and is one of the finest ecclesiastical build- ings in Prussia. The Japs erected a monument in Korea after the Chini- Japanese war or 1835, in honor of their horses killed duringtlie campaign. The cost of the monument was what is equivalent to $30,000 in our money, was contributed by all the officers in the Japanese army, and a number of the common‘soldiers. War horses have frequently been honored with monuments, but,-sc far as knowu, there isonly one that can claim the honor of having' a city founded to its memory. When Alex- ander the Great took the field against King Phorus, an Indian Monarch of considerable power, he had his favor- ite charger, Buccpliala, killed under him at the battle of Hydaspes. He conquered his toes, and on the spot where the gallant animal was slain founded Biicephalus, which grew to be one ’of the most densely populated cities in India. , ' Strathfieldsaycin Hampshire, the residence of the Duke of Wellington. was bestowed upon the Iron Duke in recognition of his brilliant services to the nation.
