Little children alwajs need careful attention â€" but they do not need strong drugs. When any ailment comes they should not bo diugged in- to insensibility with the so-called "soothing ' medicines, nor should the.v be given strong nauseous, grip- ing [Mirgatives. The very best medi- cine in the world for such troubles as colic, sour stomach, indigestion, constiiiation, diarrhoea, worms, colds, simple fevers and teething troubles _ is Baby's Own Tablets. If J our litt'le ones suffer from any of these troubles give them the Tablets and .see how quickly they will bring back the bloom of health. Give the little ones an occasional dose of the Tablets and you will keeo them well. Mrs. Hobt. Hanna. Elgin. Ont., has proved the truth of these statements and says : â€" "I lind Baby's Own Tab- lets the best remedy for indigestion and teething troubles. " The Tablets cost 25 cents a bo.x, and may be had from druggi.-<ts or by mail from The Or. Williams Medicine Co., BrockvlUe, Ont.

It strengthens and invigor- ates the delicate feminine organism, and builds up the whole .system. Mrs. Chaa. Keeling. Rcn.. Owen Sound, tint., writes : "11 is a pleas- ure to tell what gi-eat beneflts I hav« derivtd from the use of Dr. Cha.'ie's N«rve Food. I am fifty-ftvo years of age, and for about flvt years my life was one of great .suf- fering from nervousness, weakness and extreme physical exhaustion.

They were skill- ed in arms and versed in the arts of war. for they were the Emperor's fighting men, and none but they were allowed to bear arms. As there could not alwa.vs be war on hand, and as it was considered be- neath the dignity of tho Samurai to go into any ordinary calling, it came about naturally that these little knights found much idle time on their hands. Being men ot war. thcy turned their attention to athletic feats. One among the Samurai con- ceived the idea of learning by prac- tice the location of every sensitive nerve and muscle in the body. After that he riiscovnred all the joints of the bones that couln be seized in such a way as to give momentary power over the mu.scles of an ad- versary. He practiced with his fel- low Samurai, and thus by degrees was developed tho most wonderful system of athletics known in the world. The Japanese call this work jiu-jitsu. The deft pressures applied in the practice of jiu-jitsu produce only momentary pain, but do not really injure the muscles or nerves. In all other things tho Japanese are the most polite people in the world; so it follows that even in their fighting they have adopted a humane yet ef- fective method of self-defence. Thcy do not strike out with the clenched fist and seek to bruise, as do the .\n- glo-Saxons in their boxing contests. A knowledge of jiu-jitsu enadlss one almost instantly to convince his op- ponent that it is useless to fight. There aro now schools of jiu-jitsu ev- erywhere in .Tupan. Every soldier, sailor, and poHcotnan is obliged to perfect himself in the system.
