In response to my letter there arrived at my hotel a very repentant clerk, who expressed his sorrow at the incident, but kept on repeating the phrase, ‘I assure you, sir, that it was bona fide!‘ "‘What do you mean by bona fide" I asked.

Letters in praise of Sherlock Holmes or propounding problems for Sherlock Holmes‘s creator to soive reached him from the four corners of the world, including the Samoan Isâ€" lands. Robert Louis Stevenson wrote to him from Vailima. "He had been retailing some of my Sherlock Hoimes yarns to his native servants,â€"I should not have thought that he needed to draw upon anyone else,â€"â€"and he complained to me in a comical letter of the difficulty of tellâ€" ing a story when you had to halt every moment to explain what a railway was, what an engineer was, and so forth. He got the story across in spite of all difficulties, and, said he, ‘If you could have seen the bright, feverish eyes of Simite, you would have tasted glory Simite and his comrades accepted all tho tales as literally true; they could not be convinced that any story was merely a feat of fancy.

RHEUMATIC PEOPLE CAN NOW FIND RELIEF By Driving the Poisonous Acid From the System.

As a blood builder and nerve tonic Dr. Williams‘ Pink Pills are unâ€" surpassed, and for that reason do not‘ fail to give relief to rheumatic sufler-| ers when given a fair trial. Among| the rheumatic sufferers who have| proved the great value of this medi-l cine is Mrs. Simeon J. Tatton, Indian‘ Head, Sask., who says:â€""For over| two years I was an intense sufferer from rheumatism and until I began the use of Dr. Williams‘ Pink Pills no }treatment that I took helped me any. The trouble grew so bad that I could ‘not move around the house without‘ help, and finally 1 had to give up and \go to bed. Words cannot ‘tell how much I suffered, and I could not bear to have anyone come near me. Finalâ€" ly one of my neighhors strongly urged me to try Dr. Williams‘ Pink Pills, and I decided to do so. In the course of a few weeks I could feel an improveâ€" | ment, and I was able to get up. I kept | on taking the pills until all traces of !the trouble were gone, and I could *Iagain do my housework, feeling like a ‘ new person. Three years have passed |since that and there has never been the slightest return of the trouble, so that I feel safe in saying that the reâ€" lief brought by this medicine is perâ€" | manent." You can get the pills from your druggist, or by mail at 50 cents a box from The Dr. Williams‘ Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. After half a century of growth the claims of Christian Science that spiritâ€" ual healing is today practical is beâ€" ing recognized by material systems of healing and by the older churches.

All of which indicates that mortais are healthy or unhealthy, happy or unhappy, strong or weak, alive or dead, in the proporâ€" tion that their thinking is good or bad, gpiritual or material. Centuries ago the wise man said: "As he (a man) thinketh in his heart, so he is." In the sight of infinite Love there are no incurable diseases; there never have been any, there never will be any. The Psaimist knew this when he sang: "Blesse the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: who forâ€" giveth ali thine iniquities; who heal oth a}l thy discases." Note well that it readse all thine iniquities and all thy diseases, not some of them. Ask for Minard‘s and take no other. .A we‘ll known oculist declares that more people are wearing g.asses toâ€" day than ever before. Too many peoâ€" ple who are obliged to wear glasses do so without & thought as to the effect particular shapes will have upon their appearance. How Glasses Affect Features. Before purchasing glasses some atâ€" tention should be paid to facial charâ€" acteristics. The person with a long, straight nose shou‘ld hesitate before buying glzsses with an arched bridgeâ€" piece, as this wi.l appear to lengthen the nose. Those with Roman. noses can imâ€" prove their profile by having glasses with a low bridge and side clips adâ€" justed so that the skin above the bridge is pulled slighty downwards. This slackens the skin along the length of the nose and appears to reâ€" duce the curve. A person with tipâ€"tilted nose who is desirous of straightening it should wear pinceâ€"nez and not spectacles. The latter serve only to puil at the bridge and still further elevate the tip of the nose. Glasses can be made to alter, or appear to alter, the who‘le form of the face. Any dark, horizontal linesâ€" such as well defined eyebrowsâ€"across the oval of the face will seem to shorten its length. For this reason a lon‘-visaged- person should wear narrow spectacles with reavy rims and a straight bridgeâ€"plece. Apart from personal taste it would seem advisable to wear pinceâ€"nez in preference to spectacies, as the earâ€" bars of the latter cast shadows which add age to one‘s appearance by emâ€" phasizing the wrinkles at the corners of the eyes. The thickness of the rims affects the appearance of the face. Generally speaking, the darker the :im the smaller the face appears. A full face is made to appear thinner when heavily rimmed glasses are worn. MAKE CARE OF BABIES EASIER Baby‘s Own Tablets Are a G reat Help to Mothers of Young Children. 1 Pr. C. W.
