But‘in Russia, Germany, Jap- an and. Australia there is a. general de- rcase 1n the supply. In the past twenty years_the world's catch of the twelve most important. furs has fallen 03 from 5 per cent. to 700 per cent. while the de- mand for the more expensive varieties has multiplied enormously.

It is the after effects of. 1a gripp-e that cause such Widespread misery. is the reason. La. grippe leaves behind it weaken-ed vital Bowers, a shatter-ed nervous sysâ€" em, impure and impoverished blood, and a low state of health that renders the sufferer extremely liable to rheumatism, indigestion, neuralgia. andnervous disorders. You can avoid la 'grippe entirely by keeping the blood rich and pure through the occasional use of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. Or if, be- cause you have not recognized your blood weakness, 1a grippe fastens its fangs upon you, its disastrous after effects can be driven out by the same medicine. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills' increase and enrich the blood supply, feed the starving nerves, and thus impart new health and new strength to enfeobled men and women. Mr. G. St. Clair, con- nected with the Sun Info Assurance Co., Halifax,‘N'."S., says: “I wasl taken down with a heavy cold and la grippe and was confined to the house for some weeks. I had the best of medical attention, and alâ€" though the doctor said I was cured I was still far from’well, and did not have the vim necessary for a attend to either office or field work.

A man of remote Morocco, plying his ivo- eatiou in a land for which civilization has had small concern, Raisuli has made him- self the most important and distinguish- gd. exemplar of the highest thlngs m rigandage. l _ It will DU remembered that Raisuli took possession of the person of Mr. Perdi. earls, an. American. who had the ques- tionable taste to reside in Morocco. Raisull demanded ransom. Premdent Roosevelt demanded "Pcrdlearis alive or Raisuli dead" from the Moroccan government. Raisuli got. what he demanded. He kidnapped many others, including a. London Times correspondent, and made money easily out of each transaction. The Moroccan government could do nothing with him at. all and no other govern- ment could compel the Moroccan govern- ment to do the impossible. New Raisuli appears in a new role. He has just declared himself Sultan of Mo- K room. The real Sultan is a eudsidized and pitiful thing, a. more tool of the French and Spanish occupiers of his land. Raisuli promises to be a real sultan. a sultan af- er the manner of the first great con- Euerors of Islam. He Will not cease to ght till every Frank is expelled from Morocco or u'ntil every Moroccan fighting man is slain by Frank machine guns. Judging solely from Raisuli‘s past per- formances, he means pretty much what he says. A bandit sultan may cause much trouble before his case is finally :ettled. g ~ ' The Mines .Have Made Good.
