Now that the centenary of the birth of Lord Kelvin, the scientist and in- ventor, is about to be celebrated, it is interesting to recall that Mrs. Ramsay A gambler neve: MacDonald, the late wife of the Prime plenty of physical! yap. She was, 8s a matter of fact, Minister, was a relative of the great Lord Kelvin's niece. This is one of the facts mentioned in "Mrs. Ramsay MacDonald," by Lucy Herbert. Margaret Ethel Gladstone, which was Mrs. MacDonald's maiden name, , Was born in 'London .n 1870. Her fore- bears were, like those of her husband, of very humble origin, and of the same _ nationality--Scottish. They were da mask weavers and lived in Kelso, and . by dint of study and perseverance they raised themselves, From very early years Mrs. Mac- Donald wae Interested in scientific .questions, which she seemed able to master with Mtle effort. It was in June, 1895, that Mrs. Mac- Donald, first met her futuré husband. Their views on life were similar--they were both striving after the better- ment of their fellow men and women: Within a few months they were en- vember in the-follewing year. --- - "The bride did not want to be \ 'dressed up,' " the authoress says. "She wore a soft grey dress and changed into an old frock to go away in. It was not unlike her." Once, while staying with Lord Kel vin, the future Mrs. MacDonald wrote: "It gives one rather a common- sense or scientific way of looking at things to stay with Uncle Willlam. You begin to feel that everything has |e reason and that that reason may be found out; and that things should not de slurred over or left to chance when you can direct them by taking a little | more trouble and using a little | thought."

NERYOUS DEPRESSION Why People Are Low Spirited and Depressed. Nearly all women and most men suf- for at times from fits of depression and low spirits. Everything seems a bur den; then come periods of nervous Ir- ritability, headaches and weariness. People who suffer this way lack vital- ity because their blood is poor and nerves are starved in consequence. The only way the nerves cal be reached is through the blood. By en- riching the blood with Dr. Williams' Pink Pills the starved nerves are sup- plied with just the elements they need. This is proved by the experience of Mrs. J. E. Dadson, 12th Ave. East, Vancouver, B.C., who says:--""About. three years ago I became very weak and nervous. I had pains in my side and back, and also suffered from fre. quent pains in the back of my head and neck. I was hardly able to do anything about the house. I would wake with a start in the night and my heart would flutter so that it al. most choked me, I tried much doc: tor's medicine but it did me no per- manent good. One day I read about Dr. Willlams' Pink Pills and decided to give them a trial. These pills pro: duced such a beneficial change in a short time that I kept taking thém un- til I had used a dozen boxes, By this time there was such an improvement in my condition that friends would ask me what I was. taking, and of course I was only too pleased to tell them fit was Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I am now feeling like a new person and am doing my own housework. We would not-now be without Dr. Williams' Pink Pills in the house."

A piece of paper-- wrapping paper--is also used but the spectators do not know how important this is. The hirness ring and the block of wood are placed on the paper. The coin is then marked and is placed some distance away, also on the paper. The block of wood is placed on the harness ring and the two are placed on the coin. The fnevitable magic word issal and the block of wood is lifted. The coin has vanished. The block Is replaced, another magic word Is said and both block and ring are lifted. The coin reappears, The harness ring is about as big . as a half dollar. The opening of the ring is very neatly covered with paper-~the same wrapping paper mentioned as being so essential. The block of wood should be about the size of the ring, so that the two can be lifted together without awk- wardness. When the Fing fasts on the paper, the fact that it is pre pared cannot be seen--except by careful inspection of the ring, be- cause the paper matches perfectly. The secret being known, the opera. tion of the trick will be easily un- derstood. (Clip this nut and paste it, with other of the gerice in n zevapbook.) Minard's Liniment Relleves Pain.
