Many people now believe that a ^raou> character may-be foretold from Ti:s -method of walking. I'irni regular 6!eps are siiid to denote a steady, re liable nature, while jerky, uneven movement* indicate the reverse. The energetic person walks quickly and slops Buddcnly; the dreamer saunters aking with slow, abstracted mien. The obstln- ft'.y man goes straight ahead, refusing to turn aside for anylx)dy. On the other V.and the person who is ready to step out of everyone's way is not necessarilv weak-willed. He may be afllicled with too riuch courtesy. The long swinging step usually marks the generous broad-mlnd- ,;ii person while the small petty tread 6liOws the walker to be of a mean and narrow character. This last rule applies, of course, far njore to men than to women. DISFIGl'RING FACE SORES. Pimples, face sore~, and the kindred eruptions common to late winter and early spring, are the worst disfigure- nieii'is tho fair se?c have to bear. To re- hKve them the pores must be opened «nd the functions of the sklu sliinulatr ed. by the vigorous applications ofZain- tuk morning and night, and washing froquenlly with Zain-Buk Medicinal Sonp. Zam-Buk roaches the root of the disease by soaking through llvp skin and tis.sue »nd its powerful herbal juices expel d'.s<'ase and make the skin do its work, vhich can't be dono simply by the use of internal medicine. Miss Ellen Smith, of Somerville .Ave., Toronto, says: "My face was givatly disfigured by a .skin eruption which annoyeil me dreadfully tf: nionihs. I was advi-scd to try Zam- Buk and I am glad I did for it quickly rcnwived the trouble and my face is Tiow clear of all eruptions." Zam-Buk contains no animal fal what- ever, but is a pure healing salve. II cures cuts, burns, chafings, cold s<jr<*. ll':h, eczema, running snres, ringworm. piles, bad legs, iiinamcd patches, and a'', diseased, injured and lrrila!ed con- ditions of the skin.
