We do not know of a. single case of anaemia where Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills have failed to cure if given a lair trial. Mr. John Hastings, Venn, Sask., was a victim of this )rouble and found new health through ‘Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. He says: “I was working on a rail- way driving a team and found my- lclf gradually running down. I did {not pay much attention to it at first, but soon I began to lose my Ippetite and it was a trial to get lhrough my day's work. I got me- licine from the doctor on the works, but it did not help me, and inally I got so bad I told the foreâ€" nan I would have to quit.

In the third yearâ€"That ls, of the famine in Samaria (2). It lasted three years and six months lLuke 4. 25 and James 5. 17). Eliâ€" ah, at this time, was for all we now to the contrary, at the house of the widow of Zarephath. 2. And Elijah wentâ€"The drought had done its work, and it was time for the prophet to follow up this terrible calamity by a public de- monstration of the supremacy of Jehovah. To go before Ahab at such a time required both faith and - courage, for the king no doubt at- tributed the famine to the meddle- someness of Elijah. In fact, the royal wrath burst into flame as soon as he set eyes on this troubler of Israel (17). But, when he point- ed to Elijah as the source of the trouble, he simply evaded a guilt which he knew was his own and his people’s. His bad conscience is evidenced in this weak acquiescence in the plan proposed by his accu- ser. A strong king, sure of his in- nocence, would have taken the pro- phet into custody at once. 18. Thou has followed the Baalim â€"E1ijah doesn’t mince matters. The sole cause of the famine was the idolatry of the king and his people. 19. Gather to me all Israelâ€"It is more than a challenge. It is a. fearless command, the audacity of which stamps Elijah as one of the most masterful men of the Old Tes- tament, as well as the most pic- turesque. Carmel was a fitting place for the proposed contest. Rich in arboreal growth, commanding a. splendid view of the surrounding hills and plains, it became in Old Testament literature, and else- where, the type of lofty grandeur and fertility. The mountain st1ll bears the prophet’s name (Mar Elias) and the spring of water which resisted the drought and “Elijah’s grotto” are still pointed out. “The whole mountain murmurs,with his name.” 21. And Elijahâ€"On one side everybody elseâ€"priests, king, peo- ple. The prophet of God stands alone. His first appeal is to the people. It stirred the patriotic pride of Elijah to see his own peo- ple feebly limping along in inde- cision. Their answering him not a word was an open acknowledgment of guilt. Their course had been one of vacillation, now a service of Jehovah, now a service of Baal. 22-24. The conditions of the con- test. Elijah was the only prophet of Jehovah left, the rest having been either slain or silenced. He therefore must stand as the repre- sentative of the old form of worship, while he is opposed by the four hundred and fifty prophets of Baal For each a bullock is to be provid- ed, and this is to be prepared for sacrifice. Dean Farrar suggests that the condition relating to fire was a precaution against “priestly trickeries.“ As Baal was the god of the sun it was fair that Elijah should challenge them to call upon» his name in the hope of securing fire from heaven. Elijah had ap- pealed to the people, and there was nothing left for the priests but to comply with these conditions, for the people declared the speech well spoken. Then, as now, and always, the people wanted a God who could do things. ‘ 2G-29â€"The predicament of the priests of Baal. 1. They cried with incessant monotony from morning till noon, 0 Baal hear us. But there was no voice. “There lay the dead bullock putrescing under the burning orb which was at once their deity and the visible sign of his presence. No consuming lightning fell, even when the sun flamed in the zenith of that cloudless sky.” 2. They performed” a heathenish dance, with wild gesticulations and shrill cries. 3. The taunts of Elijah. Until the sun had reached its high- est point he kept ullent. But now, with stinging references to the posâ€" sible preoccupations of the sun~god, he holds them in derision. 4. Cut by the sarcasms of the man of God, the four hundred and fifty priests resorted to the extreme measures of their worship, and began slash- ing and mutilating their bodies in terrible frenzy. Meanwhile, until time for the evening offering of meal, they kept up their weird jar- The prophets of Asherah â€" They do not appear in the story again.

With an orderly calm that stood out in impressive contrast to the noisy confusion of the priests, the prophet made ready. 1. With one stone for each of the twelve tribes of Israel, he repaired the old ' altar which the queen had doubtless torn down. 2. He built next a broad trench capable of holding about five “For Tea You Can’t Beat Liptonf's” A Lady Writes : ‘ ‘Why Didn‘t Yo u Tell Us Before How Delicious It Is?"

He drenched with water the bullock which he had cut in pieces and laid upon the altar with the wood, and filled the trench also With water, so that there could be no possible deception. 36-37â€"â€"_The prayer of Elijah. It was a Simple, fervent prayer, free from unavailing repetitions and ac- companiments of frenzy. Thrice he invoked the name of Jehovah, and wrtha single purposeâ€"that the God of Israel might be vindicated and his name exalted among the people. ' 38â€"IlOâ€"The results: 1..The utter consumption of all that was on the altar, together with the shattering of the stones and the licking up of the water in the trench. feet on the people. With one ac- cord they fell on their faces and cried, in the expressive Hebrew tongue, "Yahweh-hoo-ha-Elohim, Yah-weh-hoo-ha-Elohim,” convinc- ed that Jehovah, and not Baal, was the true God. 3. The slaughter of the priests. Unnecessarily cruel as this seems, viewed in the light of our higher Christian ideals, it doubtless accorded with the rude ethics of those farâ€"off days. .1. HEALTHY CHILDREN ARE A BLESSING Healthy babies are good babies, and the good baby is a blessing in every home. Nothing can give the 'mother or father more pleasure than to see baby play. Every move- ment is watched with delight; every new word,spoken brings pride to the fond parents. It is only.the sickly baby that makes home wret- chedâ€"and, mothers, it is not baby’s fault when he is sick. You are the one to blame. Perhaps you give him candies, cakes and other food which his little stomach is unable to digest. Then when he is cross and_a111ng you give him some “soothing” mixtures to quiet him. That is wrongâ€"remember his little stomach is not as st: ong as a grown persons, and also remember that every spoonful of “soothing” mixâ€" turc you give him only does him more injuryâ€"it does not remove the cause of his frctfulnessâ€"it merely dopes him into an unnatural sleep. What is needed to make baby heal- thy and happy is Baby’s Own Tab- letsâ€"a medicine with a guarantee of safety. About them Mrs. Ms.- thies McCormick, West St. Peters, P.E.I., writes. .“We have used Baby’s Own Tablets with good re- sults. They are certainly a. bless- ing for mothers that have cross, sickly babies. They sweeten the stomach; give refreshing sleep and make baby fat and healthy.” Sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Wil- liams’ Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. -â€"-â€"â€"»r 3 GRACES AT CORONATION. Unique Trio of Fair Young Prin- cesses Will Adorn Function. Not the least interesting fact in connection with the forthcoming coronation is that among the disâ€" tinguished participants in the cereâ€" monies will be a trio of fair young princesses, the father of each of whom is among the most powerful monarchs on earth. The girls are: Princess Victoria Alexandra, the 14-year-old and only daughter of the King and Queen of England; Princess Olga, 16, the eldest daughter of the Czar and Czarina of Russia, and Princess Victoria Louise, who is 19, and the youngest daughter of the Kaiser and Kaiser- in of Germany. In each instance, the princesses have a full share of good looks, and if reports about them are to be credited they posâ€" sess that amiable temperament that should go with a pretty face.

In these days many people .carry a camera exactly as they would a handkerchief or an umbrella, and in the country they are usually free to do 50. Almost the only places where cameras are refused admission are dockyards, both pubâ€" lip and private; forts, and of course prisons, says Pearson’s Weekly. Abroad the tourist must be very careful indeed about snapshotting right and left. » Germany three years ago passed a special bill through the Iteichstag dealing with this matter and imposing heavy penalties upon those who infringe the regulations. Damages to the amount of $1,500, with a fine of $250 or two months’ imprisonment, will henceforth be the fate of anyone who snapshots a private person, a work of art or and circulates or publishes the pic- ture Without permissmn. Persons in the public eye, such as members of the royal family, statesmen, actors and well known divines, are excepted, and so too the interior of a private building! art in public “gall-cries. It need hardly be said that it is risky in the extreme to attempt to take pictures of any fort or war- ships belonging to foreign coun- tries. Even to carry a camera when within the lines of a fortified town exposes the owner to the risk of arrest. . In Portugal the authorities are saying that he was pulled for snapâ€" ping the Royal Palace at Cintra. It is possible, however, that under the new Portuguese regime the palaces will no longer be held so sacred. In Italy the camera of the tourist is made a means of provnung re- venue for that somewhat impover- ished country. If you carry your camera when on a Visit to Pom- peii or others of the recently exâ€" cavated ruins, you may take as many photographs as you please, but you are forced to pay a small fee for each plate cxpksed. There are many parts of the world where the use of a camera. may not be act- ually illegal but yet is excessively dangerous. The Chinese have a horror of be- ing pictured. They have the idea that the possession of the photoâ€" graph of any individual gives the possessor some form of mystic powâ€" er ovcr that person. Many savage tribes in Africa have a similar belief and natives placed before the camera will hide; their faces with their hands. 1 The same superstition. holds good‘ even in some parts of Europe.
