Canada {is the Chateau de Ramezay | which has remained ward of his gallant sortie 'with 800 men in aid of Quebee fn 1690, when tite Count de Frontenac, governor ot Canada, fended off the English fleet of Sir William Phipps. The Chateau stands 'fn what was once the fashionable 'part of old Mont- 'real, amid mansions and gardens that merged 'into the neighboring forests. To-day the homes of*Montreal have forsaken .the busy waterfront and climb, « their charming gardens still clinging * to them, up the slopes of "Mount Royal. From the days of de Ramezay the Chateau has been the scene of many historic assemblies. Hs roof ghelter- ed not only the governors-general, their suites of fair women and brave men. and. their, {llustrious guests, but fur traders, scouts, militia leaders, and indians. |. In 1745 it passed into the hands ot the Campagnie des Indes and as India House become the centre of a great fur trade, filling this picturesque and important role for nearly twenty years. 'In 1763, after the cession of Canada, it was again the residence of the governor, and invitations to recep- tions held there during the folowing century are still in existence, g The Chateau was headgnarters for the army of the Continental Congress in' its 'fruitless effort to hold Canada for the thirteen colonies. After Bene- dict Arnold failed in his treason he retired to Montreal and stayed there for a time. Benjamin Franklin lived in the Chatéau when he visited Mont- real in 1776 in his effort to persuade the French Canadians to join the new nation to the south, but his was a vain hope. During his stay there he es- tablished the. Montreal "Gazette," which 1s still running. ° Needless to say, he did not found this paper for the purpose of propaganda. ' After 1849, the Chateau. was for thirty-five years used for government offices. When the government re- moved to Ottawa, the city presented the Chateau to the Numismatic and Antiquarian Society for a museum, and as such it is unique.

Here is the statement of one per-| son among thousands who have used Dr. Williams® Pink Pills to their own great advantage. = Mrs. A. Veniot, Hemford, N;8., says: --"For about two years I was a great sufferer from in- digestion, which seemed to carry with it a complication of other troubles Every meal I took brought with it misery, as it was followed by pain, and sometimes nausea and vomiting. At other times gas would form in the stomach to such an extent that my heart would palpitate at an alarming raté. These conditions brought on extreme nervousness and irritability, and I found my general health so much affected, that the least exertion would tire me and I slept but poorly. I had been -doctoring for several months, with no result beyond slight 'temporary relief, when I was advised by @ friend to try Dr, Williams' Pink Pills. I decided to follow this advice and got a half a dozen boxes, Good re- sults soon began to show from this treatment, and the further continued use of the pills have made me a well woman. I can cheerfully recommend Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to similar sufferers." The purpose of Dr. Williams' Pink Plils is to build up the blood. They do this one thing and they do it well.

A queer African species of snake, which lives on eggs, has a tooth-like spike projecting downward from its 4s tipped with enamel. When it swal- lows an egg the latter passes down the gullet until it encounters the spike, which breaks the shell. Thus no part of the fluid contents is lost, as would be the case if the snake were obliged to bite the egg with its mouth- fangs. Minard's Liniment for sale everywhere ------ ee World's Largest City. London is no longer the most popu- lated city in the world. Greater New York, according to the latest returns, now claims over 8,000,000 inhabitants, against the 7,400,000 of Greater Lon- don. Hstimates in 1914 showed New York to be only 100,000 inhabitants be- 'hind. But it is perhaps a little of a shock to find that London is now headed by almost a million.
