. . f t r SPRING REMINDERS OF RHEUMATISM Damp Weather Starts the Pain, but the Trouble Liei in the Blood Spring weather is bad for rheu- matic sufferers. The changes from mild to cold, the raw, damp winds start the aches and twinges, or in the more extreme cases, the tor- tures of the trouble going. But it must be borne in mind that it is not the weather that causes rheuma- tism. The trouble is rooted in the blood the changeable weather merely starts thq pains. The "only way to reach the trouble and to cure it is through the blood. The poisonous rheumatic acids must be driven out. Liniments and rubbing may give temporary relief, but can- not possibly cure the trouble. The sufferer is only wasting time and money with this kind of treauui>nt and all the time the trouble is be- coming more deeply rooted harder to cure. There is just one speedy cure for rheumatism Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills. They act direct- ly on the impure, aaid-tainted blood. They purify and strengthen it and thus root out the cause, of the rheumatism. Here is strong proof of the above statements. Mrs. Eobt. Luffman, MidJand, Ont., says; "About three years ago my grandson, Robert Luffman, was at- tacked with inflammatory rheuma- tism. He became so bad he could only walk when someone helped him about. One arm he had to carry in a sling, and we felt sure he would be a cripple for life. The trouble also affected his heart. The doctor said his blood was turning to water and we had little hope for his re- covery. The medicine the doctor gave him did not do more than soothe the pain a little, then he would be as bad as ever. On a for- mer occasion Dr. Williams' Pink- Pills had cured my daughter of rheumatism, and we finally decided to try them in Robert'! case. After the use of three or four boxes there was a slight improvement and he continued taking the Pills until he had used .'2 boxes, when the trou- ble had '. >mpletely disappeared, and he has not been afflicted with it since." Sold bv -T!! medicine dealers or by mail at JO cents a box or six boxes for $'.' 50 from The Dr. Wil- liams' Mfdicitie Co., Brockville, Ont. \ m % OLD ENGLISH IXNS. The. Pope's Head at Norwich, which the licensing authorities have decided to refer for compensation, claims to be the oldest public house in England. There are, however, other claimants, such as the Sara- cen's Head, Newark : the Old Green Man, Erdington ; the Seven Fine- den, which last, they say, was used as an inn in 1042. The Fighting Cocks Inn. St. Alban's, goes one better, and claims to be the oldest inhabited house in England. F. W. Qackwood describes it as. "a curi- ous structure, of octagonal shape, of early Saxon origin, having been built as a boat house to the monas- tery found<Kl by St. Albans by King Offa. about Stars. Witby-grove, Manchester, and the Bell, 795." BEATING SPEAKER. Col. Henry R. Smith, Sergeant- at-Arms of the Dominion Parlia- ment since 1872, has some good stories to tell concerning the ex- pedients employed by members of the House of Commons to question the truthfulness of other honorable members without being called upon by the Speaker to retract. A Westerner once called a fellow- member a liar in the House, and when urged to retract remarked that he would withdraw the expres- sion out of respect to the Speaker, but added that he would certainly call the member a liar outside the premises of the chamber. But in most cases attacks on veracity are more cleverly clothed in verbiage. The most artistic effort in this di- rection recalled by Col. Smith was that of a wit who, after listening Lieut. -Col. H. R. Smith. to a speech from the benches op- posite. said : "The statements of the honorable member just seated force me to the conclusion that if he had lived in the days of Sapphira that lady would have preferred him to Ananias as a husband." A GOOD UEMEDY FOR, LITTLE ONES Baby's Own Tablets are the best medicine a mother can g'vc her lit tl ones. They are absolutely safe, being guaranteed by a government analyst to contain no opiates or other harmful drugs. They cure constipation and indigestion, ex- pel worms, make teething easy, in fact cure all the minor ills of Title ones. Concerning them Mrs. Mur- ray Marshall, Zephyr. Ont.. jays: "1 have used Baby's Own Tablets for my children and always with the best of results. I can recom- mend them as a good remedy for little ones to every mother." The Tablets arc sold by medicine deal- ers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. WE OF THE P.M. TALKSTO WOMEN TELLS WHAT DODD'S KIDNEY PILLS DID FOR HER. She Suffered for Two Years and Found a Cure for all Her Trou- bles in a Single Box. Lower Caraquet, Gloucester N. B., April 22 (Special). Mrs. Jos. 0. Chiasson, wife of the police ma- gistrate here, who for two years has been practically an invalid, is again in the best of health, and stie is telling her friends how quick and complete was her cure when the took Dodd's Kidney Pills. "My illness," Mrs. Chiasson says, "was caused by a strain, and for two years I was a sufferer. My back ached, I was always tired and nervous, there were dark circles under my eyes and after sleeping I had a. bitter taste in my mouth. "I had a pressure and sharp pain on the top of my head. I was al- ways thirsty and my skin had a harsh, dry feeling. I was often dizzy. I perspired easily and my perspiration had an unpleasant odor. "Almost from the first dose Dodd's Kidney Pills helped me, and by the time I had finished the first box I was a well woman." Mrs. Chaisson's symptoms show ed that the trouble was h"r kid- neys. That's why Dodd's Ridaey Pills cured her so quickly. . A ANOTHER RIDDLE SOLVED. Kind Scientists THI Us Why Cats Fall on Their Feet. The ingenuity of a scientist has resulted in the. construction of an apparatus to show why a cat in falling invariably alights on its feet. This apparatus consists of a card- board cylinder wherein are stuck four rods to serve for legs, together with a tail devised on similar prin- ciples. The object of the experi- ment is to show that a eat's pecu- liar faculty depends on the- rotation of its tail with sufficient vigor. It appears that this faculty is specially developed by climbing and leaping animals, such as members of the feline tribe, monkeys, squir- rel,*, rats, and most lemurs. The tail plays a most important role in the. turning process. According to the inventor of this apparatus, all tree-inhabiting mon- keys have long tails, and there is not the slightest doubt that these tails are of great aid to all climb- ers in enabling them to turn in the air. The tail also acts as a balan- cer, . evidenced in the case of a squirrel, which may be seen, walk- ing along a tightly stretched wire or string, swinging its tail from side to side very much after th<? manner of the professional wire walker bal- ancing himself with a pole. THE OLDEST METAL. A recent paper presented to the Royal Institution at London in dis-- cussing the question of the metals used by the great nations of anti- ' quity pointed out that gold was [ probably the first metal known toi man because it is generally found I native. The oldest metaJlic objects j to which we can assign a probable ] date are thought to be those found in a royal tomb at Nagada in Egypt supposed to have been that of King Menes. In one of the chambers were some bits of gold and a bead, a button and a fine wire of nearly pure copper. If the tomb has been ! properly identified these objects are at least 6,300 years old. Nearly all the ancient gold that has been ex- amined contains silver enough to give it a light color. It was gather- ed by the ancieoits in the bed of the Pactolus and other streams of Asia Minor. THE LIRE OF THE SEASIDE. From time immemorial the, sea has been calling the children of men. Sea-faxing men are lost ashore. The dwellers of inland cities and towns hearing the call \ come down to enjoy the cool breezes ! that are found by the sea. There is always life and action, even, the | coming and going of the tide, the' eternal restlessness have a luro. People are looking for a change of j scene and new places to visit each ! year, and Canadians cannot do bet- ter than to spend the^t summer this year at Long IslandTSound in the j vicinity of New London, Conn. | The Grand Trunk Railway System j will make it easy for their patrons as a new train service will be inau- gurated. A handsome booklet en- titled, "The Seashore," has just been issued and can be. secured fvr the asking, from A. E. Duff, Dis- trict Passengei- Agent. Toronto. HIS BAD LUCK. "I do believe my brother will die a bachelor. He has such bad luck. Every time he wants tu mar- ry a girl for love, she has too little money." These Pills Cure Rheumatism. To the many who suffer from rheu- matism a trial of Parmelee's Vege- table Pills is recommended. They have pronounced action upon the liver and kidneys and by regulat- ing the action of these organs act as an alternative in preventing the admixture of uric acid and blood that causes this painful disorder. They must be taken according to directions and usd steadily and they will speedily give evidence of their beneficial effects. TIMELY WARNING. Stenographer "Mr. Jones, I am about to marry a poet!"

Electric trolley-cars are to be re- placrd bv "petrol tramcars" on the short line betwee.ii Morecambe and Heysham. in the northwest of Eng- land One car is already in suc- cessful use, and two other cars have been ordered for the line. Each car carries 37 passengers, and is driven by a 55 horse-power, four- cylinder gasoline motor. The cost of the running and maintenance of the "petrol tram-car" well be stud- ied with intwrst by street railway managers. Many believe that the car will bo a serious competitor of the trolley system, sinee it requires no heavy expenditures for 'over- head or imdc.rgrouml equipment or for getierating-stationts.
