A report is made from the lienri of the Rocky Mounlams to the effect that a considerable number of cars of settlers' effects were delivered during the past nine months at Salmon .\rm, a station on the main line of the (Canadian I'acili: .railway, about half way between Banff nnd the coast. A similar number of cars and settlers' effects were delivered in the 'jume interval at Konikiops.

Whether the country is feirmanently settled or otherwise, it is apparent from what has transpired during the post ten years, that there will remain eventually no portion of the west which has not been actually tested as the permarjent •bode of the while race.

NEHVOIS IXDMiESTION. A Severe Qise Cured by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. '.. .. "I siiffereil s-j much from nervous dyspepsia that 1 feared 1 would be- come insane,' says Mrs. Alfred .\ustin. f.f Varney, Ont. "Por monlhs," says Mrs. Austin, "1 was prostrated with this trouble. I got so bad I could not i?al a mouthful of food without tl near- ly rtioking mo. 1 was affected with $uch terrible feelings of dizziness and nausea that 1 hud to leave Ihe table ii<nictiines with just two or three mouth- fuls of food for a meal. My nerves were all unstrung, and 1 grew so weak that 1 could not even sweep the floor. In (net my nerves uffecled nie to such an extent Ihal 1 feared to be left alone. I could not sleep at nighls, and used to lie awake until 1 feared my reason would leave me. I was taking medi- cine constantly, but it did not do iite a tit of good. 1 had usetl Dr. Williuins' Pink Fills on a former occasion wilh ccud results, and at lost I determined fe) liy thorn again.

I iiMli I MamUemL HOPE FOR BALD HEADED MAY BE riRED IF THEY BREATHE CORRECTLY. Anxiety Need Not Now Weifllj Heavily I'pon the I'nadorned Pate. Ordinary baldness is considered the consequence of inadequate chest breath- ing, in a recent paper by Dr. D. M. Par- ker, lecturer at itie Detroit College of Medicine. The inadequate ch<%t breath- ing alliiws a poisonous substance to develop in the lungs. This poisonous substance circulates in the bl<x)d. The roots of the hair are an indirect result of their situation over the cranium ; but this deprivation Is directly entailed by the poison generated in the upper chest, the circulation of the consequent pciison through the bo<ly and the starva- tion of the hair root bewiuse Ihe flow of their normally scanty nourishment is thus totally checked. Dr. Parker has studied tliLs hypolliesis ol his for years, treating baldness and experinjenting on animals. INADEOL'ATE BREATHING. Inadequate upper rhesl breathing leaves residual air undisturbed in the air cavities of a portion of the lung*;. The residual air in any portion of the lungs that is not made use of for breath- ing purposes must nece.ssarily he undis- turbed in the lung cavities. The resi- dual air left in the lungs by Inadequate breathing is wann, and it is saturated with moisture. Whenever residual air or, what is the same thing, expired air. is kept chambered in the presence of warmth and moisture it invariably un- dergoes change, and develops a soluble pcison that is capable, when prest>nt in the normal blood, of exerting a distur- bance 60 far as concerns hair growth. ACTION OF POISON. II might be thought strange that a poisontnis substance, circiilaling in the blood should limit its destructive action I.I l!ie hair on the lop of the head. This is explained 'V)y Dr. Parker's statement that the rools of llie hair on the lop of t!ic head, lying over Ihe hard, glisten- ing, and practically bloodless occipifo- frcnlal aponeurosis. ait> deprived of the nourishment that the roots of the hair ()' other portions of the head and of the face derive from the soft, blood-snt- urated tissue with which they are in close relationship. As a result, the hair roots of the top of the head are of com- paratively low vitality, and yield readily to the a.'tion of the poison. SIX WEEKS' CURE. Ob.servalion applied to thousands of persons affected with common baldness developed, in Pr. Parker's experience, ni'. a single exception to the rule that ^wrsons ulllicled with common baldness do not employ upper chest breathing, and those not alTlict«Hl wilh common baldness do employ upper chest respira- tion. Moreover, (lersons suffering from ordinary baldness lind a irmedy in the practice' of upper chest breathing. After one week dandruff entirely disappears. The hair begins to kise its dryness and harshness. In six weeks new hair be- gins to make Us appearance. II is very fin*, and lirst manlftsLs it.self at the edges of the bald spot, txaniuins that had been bald for twenty years have de- veloped hair after an anioiml of upper chest breathing.
