As a wife and mother, woman can make the fortune and happiness of her husband and children, and if she did nothing else, surely this would be suffi- cient destiny, By her thrift, prudence, and 'tact she can secure lo her partner and to herself a competence in old age, no matter how small their beginnings or how adverse a fate may be theirs. By ¥ «| her cheerfulness she can restore her hus- band's spirit, shaken by the anxiety of business. By her tender care she can often restore him fo health if disease has overlasked -his powers. By her counsel and love she can win him from bad com- pany if temptation in an evil hour has led" him astray. By. her example, her precepts, and her sex's insight into char- acter she can mould her children, how- ever adverse their dispositions, into noble men and women. And by leading in all things a true and beautiful life she cah refine, elevate, and spiritualise all who come within her reach; so that, with others of her sex emulating and assist- {ing her, she can do more fo regenerate world than all the statesmen 'or re- formers that ever legislated. -- DISFIGURING FACE SORES, Pimples, face sores, and the kindred eruptions common. to late winter and carly spring, are the worst disfigure ments the fair sex have to bear. To re- Imavé them the pores must be opened and: the functions of the skin stimulat- ed, by the vigorous applications of Zam- Buk morning and night, and 'washing frequently with Zam-Buk Medicinal Soap. Zam-Buk reaches the root of the disease by soaking: through the skin and tissue and its powerful herbal juices expel disease and make the skin do ils work, which can't be done simply by the use cl Internal medicine, Miss Ellen Smith, of Somerville Ave., Toronto, says: "My face was ly disfigured by a skin eruption which annoyed me dreadfully for months. I was advised to try Zam. Buk and I am glad' 1 did for it quickly remaved the trouble and my face is now clear of all eruptions." Zam-Buk contains no animal fat what. ever, bul is a pure healing salve. It 'cures culs, burns, ¢hafings, cold sores, Teh, eczema, running sores, ringworm, piles, bad legs, ififlamed paiches, and al diseased, injured and irritated con. ditions of. the skin.

In view of all that has been said about the fall in the death rate it seems strange {o realize, says Health Cullure, that we are not living so long a8 our. grand- fathers and imothers did. More babies live to grow up nowadays than formerly, but people in later life die younger. Once arrived at adult age the average man or woman has fewer years of survival to expect. This seems on the face of it so surpris- irg a statement that in order to be ac- cepted it should be backed up by data avihentic and indisputable, Such data are furnished by the figures of the insur ance companies (which all agree on the point), but it is easier to refer to the Gov- ernment census reports, which tell the tale in simple and convincing fashion. Even during the last fifteen years the death rate among all persons over 5% years of age of both sexes has risen very ocnsiderably, --e Proper sanitation and a good water supply reduce the death-rate of a town in most astonishing .fashion. At Croy- don, England, for instance, the death- rate, With proper drainage, fell to 19 per 1,000. It had been 24 previously; and cases of typhoid fell from 15 per 10,000 to 5.
