Cameron tended to'take things more easily and to put off till to-morrow what did not seem at the moment to be of importance. Ahout-five years ago Mrs. Brown; r{while recovering from a serious ill: (ness, had her attention drawn to a slight swelling on her left side. "It may b@ nothing," said the nurse. "But then again it might be something that should be given attention. If I were you I should have the doctor look at it the next time he comes in." The dootor was consulted and after an examination said: ~ 'I hate to advise an operation in such an apparently trivial ailment as this might seem to be. But then all these growths have very small begin- nings. With your permission I will ask a specialist to consult with me and we can then make up our minds." The consultation was held; the re sult was an operation and the small growth wae removed. To make as- surance doubly sure the area operated on was treated with radium, and as the operation took place five years ago, and no further development has taken place it must be concluded that the growth was either not of a seri- ous type or that-4t had been cured by the operation. Curiously enough, about a year later Mrs. Cameron' noticed a €mall lump under her right breast. It seem- ed so insignificant that she promptly forgot all about it. About two months later, however, she again noticed al- most sub-eonsciously, that the lump had not disappeared. In any case a slight swelling appeared to be of little importance to her, for at various times she had had swellings on her neck from swollen glands, from ulcer ated teeth, and from bumps, 'but they [% had always disappeared in time. Why, therefore, should this particular luinp cause her any anxiety? Mrs. Cameron went on with her life as though noth- ing was amiss. The swelling did not go down, though it did not enlarge appreciably on the surface. But, at the end of the year Mrs. Cameron was decidedly off color, This change was so gradual that the family and her immediate friends and relatives did not notice it, or if e kind he grave-clothes. in which you are eventually to be buried. vide their own ouds fn their lifetime and Nave very young women, they believe that, since such a person is likely to live a great many years to come, a'port of her capacity to live long must surely pass into the clothes she works on and thus postpone for many yeats the time when they shall be put fo their proper use.

BABYS OWN TABLETS For Any of the Many Minor Ail- ments of Infants and Young et Children. No mother can oxpect that her child "wil escape all the ills to which baby- hood and childhood are subject, but she can do much to lessen thelr sever- fty, 'and -to make baby's. battles. for health easily won. Nine-tenths of the minor ailments which afflict babyhood and childhood are caused by some derangement .of the stomach and bowels. Regulate the stomach and bowels and these troubles will disappear.

He realized that it was not small and that in all probability it was of considerable size internally, His first duty was to pull his patient through her attack and he did not say anything about the lump to Mr. Camer- on until she was well on the road-to convalescence. "It may not be serious," te. said, "but I have my doybhs, We must have a consultation right away." As the result Mrs. Cameron was.operated up- on and a large growth .

Most treatments for rheumatism do fio moré than 'aim to keep down the | poison-in | the blood and enable nature to overcome that particular attack. Then when the eystem becomes run- down from any cause the disease again gets the upper hand and it all has to be done over. Sufferers 'from rheumatism who have found thedr condition unrelieved or actually growing worse while using other remedies, would do. well to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. The tonic treatment with this moadicine has proved in thousands of cases that fit builds up the blood to a point that en- ables it to. cast out the rheumatic poldons through the regular channels, the bowels, kidneys and the skin. When this is done rheumatism is ban- ished, and as long as the blood is kept pure and rich the patient will be immune from attack. This fs fully proved by the case of Mr. Samuel Zinck, Upper Blandford, N.S. who| says: --""For a long time I was a great sufferer from rheumatism which set: tled in my hip and dow my leg to the knee. At times tho pain was so great that*§ could not walk. ments and medicines but without get- ting more than mere temporary relief. Then one day a friend called who said 'that he had been afflicted with this trouble "which was banished by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and urged me to try them. I did as advised and after using a few boxes there was no doubt they were helping me. Not only was the rheumatism disappearing, but my general health was improving. I con- tinued the pills until I had taken about 2 dozen boxes, when every trace of the trouble had disappeared, anid I Have not felt a twinge of it since. I may add that my wife used these pills for a run-down condition with equally good results." You can get these pills from any medicine dealer or by mail at 50 cents a box from The. Dr..
