Jia I tri '?'i"i'r 'i/iii'-'??,,'" ' Neuralgia is not a disease-it is only a symptom. It is the surest sign that your blood is weak, wat- ery and impure, and that your nerves are literally starving. Bad :blood is the one cause-good, rich, red blood its only cure. There you have the real reason why Dr. ,Williams' Pink Pills cure neural-l ‘gia. They are the only medicine] ‘that contains, in correct pr-opor-‘ tions, the very elements, needed to; make new, rich, red blood, This alone reaches the root of the Ji',?,') able, soothes the jangled nerve) and drives away the nagging, stab-) ‘bing pain, and brace up your rhealth in other ways. Mr. M.) lBrennan, an ex-sergeant of thel 2nd Cheshire Regiment, now a re-l tsident of Winnipeg, Man., says) ,“While serving with my regiment; lin India, on a hillvstation, I con-) ftracted a severe ' cold which] ubrought on acute neuralgia, at) ltimes lasting for three weeks. 1‘ iwas constantly suffering almost) N every month in- the year for over, : seven years, the pain being some-l “times so severe that I wished I was dead. On my return to England I seemed to get no better, though I ' spent large sums of money for me- dical advice and medicine. Then I came to Canada, and about a year ago saw the advertisement of Dr, Wjlliams' Pink Pills in a Winnipeg paper. Although I had begun to think my complaint was incurable I told my wife that I intended giv- ing the Pills a fair trial. I “was suffering from terrible pains when I began taking the Pills, but before the second box was finished the .7 pain began to disappear, and un- der a further use of the Pills it disappeared, entirely, and I have not had a twinge of it during the past year. Only those who have been afflicted with the terrible pains of neuralgia can tell what Lake Chad, in Africa, is drying «twain its northern parts. Captain 'tilh, an explorer, writes n the Geo- graphical Journal: "You under- stand cur curiosity, four years after having made. our first map of Lake Chad, to see what was the aspect which this constantly changing lake was likely to present. When We arrived in the vicinity of the lake we learned from the natives lthat caravans were crossing on dry land the northern portion, which in 1904 we had navigated on board .the Benoit Garnier; that the cen- ‘tral portion was merely a marsh Where no boat could pass; whereas in the southern portion certain ”channels which had formerly been Closed to navigation had become once more navigable." cured Through the Use of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. SEVEN YEARS PAIN Mllll ACUTE Elliilljlll Three Times is the Limit of Some Russian Peasants. The average Russian peasant bathes only three time from the cradle to the grave, according to Prof. Simon Baruch. The three momentous occasions which the Russian honors by immersing him- self are, the lecturer explained, "when he is born, when he is mar- ried and when he is laid in his coihn." "The non-bathing Russians," he continued, "have their substitute in the sweat bath. A Russian pea- sant, if he can get one in no other fashion, will sometimes creep into the oven after the bread has been baked. Russia has, however, paid a, price for its aversion to water in the tremendous increase of chol- era, a dirt disease, from 12,000 cases in 1906 to 210,000 last year. -jifese Pills are sold by all medr, cine dealers or by mail at 50 tents a blessing Dr. Williams' Pink P1lls have been to me, and you may be sure I shall constantly recommend them to other. sufferers." (Ibex or six bories for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. "As a matter cf fact, however, the common idea, that bathing opens the pores of the skin is not well grounded. What it really does is to keep the delicate muscles under the skin in healthy condi- tion and assist the work of the capillaries‘ which carry the blood to the surface of the body."

FOOLISH FELLOW Although there has been some at- tempt to ridicule the objects of a society in Paris called "The Friends 8f the Elephant," which recently, held its hr.se general meeting, there is much evidence to show that the members are quite right in their contention that big- game hunters are exterminating SOME (llflliill ELEPHANIS THEY STACK TIMBER AND WORK AS BItECIiLhYf'AtS. a race of animals which, if caught and properly trained, would prove of the greatest value to man. Ac- cording to M: Gaston Tournier, the general secretary of the society, 50,000 elephants are killed every year by big-game hunters, irre- spective " those killed by natives. These Animals are the Only Ones That Can Stand the Climate of Africa. There are still some 350,00(rele- phante in Africa, which, if made to work for their living, would be worth something like W300 000,000. If dead they would only be worth a, matter of $25,000,000. "The Friends of the Elephants"," there. fore, want to put an end to the killing, and to show that whole- -sale slaughter of the elephant is a colossal mistake. For, as the: point out, one domesticated and well-trained elephant can do the work of thirty men. In fact,, pro- perly applied one elepnarct cowlcl run a good-sized farm. AN ELEPHANT FARM. As recently stated in the journal of the Royal Society of Arts, one of the great obstacles to agricul- tural development in the equator- ial districts of Africa is the dim- culty of procuring beasts of bur- den. Horses have been tried in vain, and oxen soon become use- less. That is Why the experiment which is being carried on by Com- mandant Laplune at Api, in the Congo Free State, is being watched with keen interest. The Conrman- dant has started an elephant farm, and now possesses some fifty trained elephants. They are cap- tured quite young, and so far from being intractable, as many people-imagine elephants to be, they prove willing and wonderful “workers. They are broken in just like horses. The driver, getting on good terms with the animal, first mounts her in the stable. The next step is to put on some simple harness, by which two baskets may be carried on either side, and these are filled with loads. After this a breast-band is used, and the ele- phant begins to draw a light tree- trunk, then a little 'cart, and fin- ally a heavy wagon. In the case "'“J - ___" " u of carts and wagons the animals are generally harnessed in pains, but for ploughing they are driven singly. Furthermore, they are trained' to assist the hunters in catching other elephants; and the story is told of a female elephant which had been trained as a decoy-a fact of which its owner was not aware --which disappeared for some days. About a week later she re- turned, and led the way to a spot where a male elephant was dis- covered, round whose legs, secur- ed in the most approved fashion to four trees, was the iron chain with which she was usually fasten- ed to her own picket at night-time. Apparently she was resolved to resume her old employment, and had consequently set about carry- ing on the profession on her own account, thus securing one of the finest elephants that had been taken for many years.

Windsor. Ont. Package In Eastern countries elephants do wonderful work in the way of dragging and sorting timber and in breaking, up obstructions caused by logs and miscellaneous flotsam In streams. Colonel F. T. Pollok says he has often watched the ele- phants in a timber yard, and the human way in which they will test the weight of a log requires to be seen to be credited. The tusker will lift up one end with his trunk, and, if he deems it within his pow- er to lift the whole, he will "shift his trunk gradually until he gets to the exact centre, then by kneel- ing down he will roll the log on to his tusks and will carry it either to be stacked or to the saw-mill. ELEPHANTS AS BUILDERS., In tea estates the elephants are occasionally employed to help in building construction by keeping the masons supplied with blocks of stone, and if the wall be not too high they will not only take the block up, but lay it quite correct- ly in its proper place. A Ceylon elephant used regularly to lay stones in this way under the or- ders of an overseer, to whom he used to signal to inspect and "pass" the work done and to give permission for fresh courses to be laid. On one occasion the elephant placed himself against part of the wall, thus preventing the overseer from examining that part of the job. The latter, however, insisted on the animal moving aside, and the elephant, seeing his ruse had failed, at once began to pull down the wall which he had just built, and which he was quite aware was badly-done, at, the very spot where be had tried to conceal it from the eye of his master. A Burmese ship captain alsotells a story of a female elephant which while anchored off the coast, he frequent saw come out of the jungle to bathe in the sea, accom- panied by her youngster. The " tle chap used to keep in the shal- low water while the mother vern- tured farther out; but one morn- ing, while his parent was not look- “.5, "ShbiW “N “WV.” Pr'-iV w. __-- ing, the youngster got beyond his depth, became frightened, and made a great to-do. The mother pulled him ashore and gave him a good spanking with her trunk. Each succeeding morning the lit- tle one was compelled to stand on the bank while the mother first bathed herself and afterwards washed him down with water fetched in her trunk.
