A remedy that has corrected many cases of rheumatism is Dr. Williams‘ Pink Pills. These pills enrich and . purify the blood so that the poisonous rheumatic matter is driven out of the ; system as nature intended. Miss Gerâ€" ‘tie Denne, Washago, Ont., was attackâ€" ed with rheumatism and found relief | through Dr. Williams‘ Pink Pills. She: says:â€""About a year ago I was atâ€". ‘tacked by rheumatism and for two | weeks was confined to my bed. The ‘trouble was so painful, affecting the : joints of my limbs so that I could not| | stand alone. Mother had a box of Dr. | Williams‘ Pink Pills in the house and | thought they might help me. 1 began _ taking them, and when I had taken: these pilis got a further supply, w!t.hi y the result that the rheumatism vanâ€" _\ Ished and I was a well girl.

Keep Minard‘s Liniment in the houss Rac‘al Originâ€"Scottish Scurceâ€"A locality. Urquhart was the name of one of the most Important and influential, though one of the smallest of the clans of the Scottish Highlands. But though the clan was pure Gaeâ€" lic, of that same stock which crossed over from Ireland toward the close of thosa migrations which are responsâ€" {bla for most of the blood of the Highâ€" lands toâ€"day, the clan name was not formed from the given name of a \chieftain. In Ireland the clan names were alâ€" | most without exception derived from the names of the chieftains who first elevated their following to the dignity | of clanship; mostly from their glvenf names, but at times from their nickâ€" | names or sobriquets. In Scotland the exceptions are more numerous, and that of the Urquharts is one. ! Though the "Clann Urachadian," as | it is styled in the Gaelic tongue, is admittedly an old one, there is some. vagueness as to its early history, but it appears to have been closely conâ€" rected with the clans MacKay and !Forbes. The name of Urquhart does not appear in the historical records as bhaving been adopted by the clan until about 1300 A.D., at which time l the chief of the clan was also the comâ€" mander of a castle of that name, and bthe tradition goes that the clan name I _ ___~Ukantaud â€" fenm the name of the was adopted from the name castle.

Picture a world in which our descendants will begin almost where we left off. That this is not an idle dream has been made abundantly clear by cerâ€" taln experiments on animals carried out by Professor Paul Kammerer, a biologist of the University of Vienna, and a lifelong friend of Steinach, the originator of the "gland" cure. Kamâ€" merer demonstrated his theory before British scientists at Cambridge. Placâ€" ing before them a specimen of the sightless newt, he said that he had deâ€" veloped the creature‘s eyee.

Professor | Kammorer took one of these eyeless| newts at birth and exposed it to red | light for five years. The water In\ which the newt lived was continually Wluminated with red light, which was: used because it was found that day-‘ light merely caused a dark pigment to form in the skin covering the eyes. . danddondntotus These demonstrations were followâ€"| ed by speculations as to the possibility | of applying the results achieved on lower animals to human beings, so | that the good qualities a man culu-" vated in his own lifetime could be| passed on to his children as "inâ€" stinets."

More than 700 miles by dog team was the trip made recently by Conâ€" stable F. Stevenson, of the Royal Canaâ€" dian Mounted Police, in bringing to justice a man charged with the murâ€" der of a trader. This, however, is by no means a reâ€" cord in the annals of the Force, which has several longer and no less thrillâ€" ing man hunts to its credit. Two years ago an FEakimo who had murdered a white man in the Yukon was tracked over a thousand miles beâ€" fore he was captured, following which the Crown prosecutor and a judge traâ€" velled 3,000 miles to conduct the trial. One of the longest of theso hunts | was that carried out by Sergeant ‘ Frank Smith, who covered seventeen| hundred miles by dog team and canoe in search of a murderer named O‘Brien. During the trip the sled in which the gergeant travelled part of the way overturned into a dyke, injuring its occupant‘s leg so severely that he was unable to use it for some days. Unâ€" daunted, he continued the journey, which ended in his finding his man two weeks too late; the civil authortâ€" ties had succeeded in capturing him. The hunt cost the Government $150,â€" 000. Another longâ€"distance chase was participated in by a member of the same Force following the murder by Victor Fournier and Edward Ia Belle of three French Canadians. The deâ€" tective concerned, Sergeant W. H. Welsh, undertook to hunt the eriminâ€" als alone, and at the end of a thrilling nine hundred milos‘ trip he succeeded in arresting the prisoners with as litâ€" tle ”f'uss asva Toronto policeman makes in apprehending a pickpocket. name f(-)-rvérx;l'atuu of the Pamir Mounâ€" tains bepond the great river which borders Chinese Turkestan.

Ruddy, who has a country reâ€" sidence there, cleared $4,600 profit from 1,000 hens for the preceding | twelve months," and employed all help \ required to look after them. This cerâ€" | tainly shows there is money to be \ made from hens. How? By proper feeding, good care and attention. Poultry raisingn is as much a business as any other business and to make a success one must understand what he ‘is doing and why. When a Kelge dies he bequeaths no money to his relatives, but gives inâ€" structions for a funeral feast that will cost all the wealth of which he is posâ€" sessod $4.60 Profit From Each Hen. The winter is not the natural laying season, therefore to get good egg proâ€" duction, when prices are high, the hens must be fed with that object alâ€" ways in view. They need exercise to keep the body warm, which should be provided by making them work | (scratch) for every grain of feed. The‘ feed should be stimulating and body-l building, such as wheat and corn, sny\ 40% of each, making up the other 20%, with Western oats, buckwheat,, peas, etc. It is best just to teed] enough at a time so as to keep the| bird always ready for the next meal. . | A lot has been said for and against | "hot mash." Mr. Ruddy fed hot mash | as a midâ€"day meal all through the winâ€"| | ter. In the average home there is | | usually & considerable amount of | i table scrap which can profitably be | utilized, mixing it along with the layâ€"| l ing mash and fed in a "crumbly" conâ€"| | dition, not sloppy. Feed at midâ€"day | | and just enough; if you feed too much | the birds will go to roost, which is not | desirabie. Why not feed hot mash in | the morning? _ Because birds will | easily All their "crops," stand around ;and get chilled, whereas grain first ‘thing makes them active and keeps | them warm. Grain should also be fed \in the evening. Soft feed being more easily digested, the birds‘ crops are ‘empty long before daylight and you ‘rannot expect man or beast to do their | best on an empty stomach. Baby‘s Color. The young mother had just read in a newâ€"thought paper that everyone is svurrounded by a halo, the color of which is determined by the {emperaâ€" ment of the person. When her busâ€" band came home she tackled him on the subject. After settling the color of her neighbors‘ halos to her entire satisfaction, she remerked: "And what about baby, Alfred? What color is he, do you think? Pink, I imagiue, because he‘s the pink of perfection."
