5%: Although attention has recently _ been repeatedly called to the great Jciiiv9/sttr10tutt of tuberculosis, cancer, and i diseases of infancy in existence, it has recently come to light that there . is a common disease or group of diseases which is responsible for a far greater loss of life than any of these. ' _ {A GENTLE LAXATIVE FOR THE BABY Stomach and bowel troubles is the cause of nime-tenths of the ail- ments from which little ones suf- fer. Let the little stomach and bowels be kept right and baby will be happy, healthy and strong.

Ye who have hung over the rail, fearful one day lest ye die and fear- ful the subsequent day ye would not, hearken unto Dr. Julius Auer- bach. When you thought your stomach had rebelled against; the evil of spending money in foreign lands and was making you feel the ills of anal-de-mer, you did an injustice to an old friend. For your stomach does not cause sea-sickness at all. In a recent article in Harper's Weekly, Dr, Norman E. Ditman calls attention to the fact that this increase bears a suggestive s:eia- tionship to the increase in the con- sumption orliquors--whieh had in- creased from ten gallons per capita in 1880 to 22 gallons in 1910 - the total consumption of alcoholic bev- erages having reached the enorm- ous amount of over 1,917,000,000 gallons in 1909. The economic aspect of disease is constantly becoming a matter of in- creasing interest. This is brought home to us when, appreciating that an excessive meat diet is one of the causes of the degenerative diseases, and that according, to Prof. Chit- tenden of Yale we consume about twice as much meat as we need, we realize that in our annual expen- diture for. meat products (1906) of $2,345,461,000 we are wasting $1,- 172,730,500 on our butchers’ bills. Dr. Auerbach brings the tidings of the discovery made by Prof. Alexander Dalikinik, world famous specialist of the University of Yi- enna, that sea-siiess is due to the irritation of the semi-circular canals of the ear. All medical Eu- rope, he says, is discussing the dis- covery, but while it is accepted as the solution of the question as to cause, no progress has yet been made toward a remedy. "The semi-circular canals of the inner ear," says the doctor, "have the function of enabling us to main- tain our equilibrium. Irritation. of 'the canals causes nausea, vomiting Tel wornays, break up colds and pre- vent br cure the dozens of ailments that. afflict the baby. The Tablets are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a, box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brock- ville, Ont. This is the group known as the degenerative diseases, consisting of heart and Bright's diseases, and arterio-scierosis, usually occurring in the same person as result more or less of the same cause or causes. These diseases kill almost twice as many people annually as tuber- culosis and have increased since 1880 at the rate of 103 per cent. Ilhey Kill Twice as Many People as Tuberculosis, Says Doctor. One of the greatest services which physicians of to-day are doing for the. public is in aequainting them with the causes of some of our com- mon diseases and showing them howrth-ese diseases can be prevent- EAR CAUSES SEA SICKNESS. and serve at once-seasoning "taste.

The doctors found in their experiments that a deaf child in whose ears the canals had been destroyed could not be made seasick, and that animals? al- though whirled in swings and given deep sea treatment, did not get the seasielcaess." Then the doctor went on to say that the ancient and accepted idea that one might prepare the system for a, voyage by dieting was all a foolish whim. No matter how much the stomach might be treated by a thorough plumbing, refitting, and housecleaning, and no matter how much or how little food he used, the result would not; reach sea- sickness. My father then explained the work of the earthworms, which were countless in number, and how by their tunneling they brought the earth to the surface, gave it air, and made it so that vegetation could exist, and that the earth would become a, desert but for this constant; boring by the worms. We could get no food without vegeta- tion, nor could we live without good air, which we get from vegetation, Buckingham Palace Has Strong Boom for Private Pa9e1s. Within the walls of Buckingham Palace, and constructed on the “strong room" principle, is a room known as the "Secret Library," and in this are stored documents and private letters which, were they sent forth to the world, would doubtless set the whole universe talking. "You ought to be contented, and not fret for your old home," said the mistress, as she looked into the dim eyes of,her young Swedish maid. "You are earning good wages, your work is light, every one is kind to you, and you have plenty of friends here." From the very commencement of her reign Queen Victoria assidu- ously stored away in nice order all family and other important papers, her only assistant in this duty be- ing a secretary, who entered her service within fourteen years of her accession to the throne, and who retained his place until her "majestie's death, though he himself had no access to nine-tenths of the papers which are doelreted, the late Queen alone retaining the keys of the safes and cabinets in which her "secret library" was contained. From my earliest age, he seemed seldom to have spoken to me with- out attempting to teach me some- thing. I can recall one of our earl- iest talks. On being asked why a robin in front of us on the grass would jump along a few steps and then suddenly stop, I was about to giws an answer when my father said: My father said, “He is listening for his breakfast, but not for. the bell to ring, as we have to do. All birds and animals which are not tame live on some other insect, animal or bird which they have to catch. "The robin lives on earthworms, and has to get a great many of them before he has had enough. Now the earthworm is as busy as the robin in looking for his break- fast, and as he makes his way through the earth, the robin hears him, and knows just where to stick his bill in and pull him out." There Is a Use and a Purpose for Everything. In_Writing of his father, Prof. John P. Emmet, Dr. Thomas Addis Emmet says that he was the only man he ever knew who seemed to possess a more than average know- ledge of everything, and who could accomplish all he ever undertook in mechanics of thearts. "Nas'm," said the girl, "but it is not the place where I do be that makes me vera, homesick; it is the place where I &m't be.†Just before her death her majesty added to the list other papers a batch of letters of the most private and confidential kind, addressed by the late Prince Consort to,his brother, the Duke Ernest of Co- burg, and possiblly, she acquired every scrap written by her late con- sort to his private friends. It is said by those who are qualified to surmise that the “Secret Library" not only tells of royal marriages, births and deaths, but that it is virtually the private history of Eu- rope during the last half of the nineteenth century. "Think before you speak; other- wise your opinion will be of no value." HOMESICKNESS. In the following is expressed clearly, although in imperfect Eng- lish, what every sufferer from home- sickness feels. It is a good story for the unsympathetic mistress to keep in mind. _ I thought a moment, and said, "He seems to be looking to see if any one is coming afttr him._†. He thus in a few simple words. ex- plained the law of compensation existing throughout creation. and made it plain to a young child that there is a use and a purpose for everything.

Levere, of Prescott, North Channel, Ont., tells how Zam-Buk cured her baby. She says:---) baby's head and face was one complete mass of sores. The itching and irritation were fearful, and the little one's plight was so serious that at one time we feared her ears would be. eaten off by the disease. t . "We had to keep her hands tied for days to prevent her rubbing and scratching the sores. Doctor after doctor treated her in vain, until we had had five doctors. _ "As a last resource we were ad- vised to try Zam-Buk. The iirst box did so much good that we felt sure we were at last working in the right direction. We persever- ed with the treatment until we had used thirteen boxes, and at the end of that time I am glad to say Zam-Buk worked a complete cure," For eczema,- eruptions, rashes, better, itch, ringworm and similar skin diseases, Zam-Buk is without equal.

Artificial floorings made of saw- dust and other ingredients, are manufactured extensively in Ger- many. The flooring composition consists of a solution of magnesium chloride to which pulverized mag- nesia. is added and which/rf itself forms a white, absolutely solid, ar- tificial stone. If to this cement saw~ dust; be added in considerable pro- portions the combination when it becomes hard possesses many “£1.11; qualities of both wood and stone. Some of thcsefoorings are mixed on the spot and laid' soft on the space to be covered, while others are moulded into plates and deliw ered ready made. One Hamburg firm impregnates the wood meal with oil before mixing it with the magnesia paste and thereby ren- ders it non-absorbent. In Germany the cheaper grades of flooring are colored to resemble linoleum or mosaic pavements, and in many instances have given en- tire satisfaction during a consider, able term of years. The emigrant halls of the Hamburg-American Line in Hamburg are paved almost entirely with this composition. Floors thus made are more elastic than cement floors, are much warm- er, and preserve a smoother 8ur- face. Under the fire test, this floor- ing chars but does not burn and is a poor conductor of heat. An Easy Pill to Talre.--Some pain sons have 1'epugnarure to pills, be- cause of their nauseating thste.
