'\ Have Been Tried and Found Good WHY DODDS KIDNEY PILLS ARE SO POPULAR They Are Invaluable As a Tonic and Family Medicine As Well As a Pre- vcntive and Cure for the More Ser- ious Kidney Diseases. Chelmsford, Ont., June 5th (Spe- cial.) â€" "We have found Dodd's Kid- ney Pills extremely good. We are in good health thanks to Dodd's Kidney Pills." These are the words of Miss Delia Charron, a well known resident here. Others tell the same story. They have tried Dodd's Kidney Pills and found them good. For Dodd's Kidney Pills as a tonic and family medicine are without an equal. When you feel worn, tired and run down the chances are ten to one that your kidneys are afr fault. When the kidneys become clogged or out of order, the circulation be- comes sluggish, the impurities are not strained out of the blood and the re- sult is weariness and lack of energy all over the body. This condition is not only disagree- able but dangerous as well. The im- puritnes in the blood are the seeds of disease. If they are not removed Rheumatism, Lumbago, Gravel, Drop- sy, Diabetes, or Bright's Disease may result. Guard against these diseases and get back your accustomed energy by using Dodd's Kidney Pills. ^ THE MONTENEGRI.V "KAPA." National Headdress for Prince and Peasant. The round cap, or kapa, that the Montenegrin soldiers wear is a his- tory of their country in miniature. The people of Montenegro, writes a correspondent of Pearson's Weekly, hSVe aTaVTng''ttiat "kapa talks," and they arc not far wrong. It is the national headdress for war, and it is the same for prince and peasant. In color it is a vivid crim- son, but it has a deep black border, which leaves only a small crown of the foundation color visible. The black border is a sign of mourning for the terrible Battle of Kossovo, when the old Serbian em- pire, of which Montenegro was a part, was overthrow^n by the Turks, and the Serbian army was annihilated. The red crown signifies "the field of blood" of the same great fight. When Constantinople falls, and their here- ditary enemies are finally driven out of Europe, then, and not until then, will the Montenegrins remove the . black border and wear the kapa all â- ted. On the red crown, in one corner, afe five semi-circles in gold. These h»ve a double significance. They aymbolize first the five centuries that have elapsed since Kossovo was fought, and, secondly, the five colors that the Montenegrins see in the rain- bow^, the sign of hope that one day the glories of the old empire of the Czar Lazar will be restored. Furthermore, the different insignia of army rank are worn on the rim of the kapa, from the crossed swords i>f the oflTicer to the simple 'eaden star of the corporal. Also, the .Montenegrin soldier wears his medals, if he has any, on the front of his cap, instead of on his tunic, as the soldiers of all other nations do. No wonder the people of the Land of the Black Mountain say that "kapa talks"! « It is dangerous to ring a bell dur- ing a thunder-storm.

AN EXCELLENT MEDICINE FOR CHILDHOOD AILMENTS Baby's Own Tablets are an excellent remedy for childhood ailments. They regulate the bowels, sweeten the stom- ach, banish colds and simple fevers and cure all minor ills of little ones. Concerning them .Mrs. H. N. Eisam, Owls Head. N.S., writes: "I always use Baby's Own Tablets for my little ones and find them an excellent medi- cine for childhood ailments." The Tablets are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at "25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. Concentrated Satisfaction A great many former users of tea and coffee have learned that there is a pure food beverage made from wheat, which has delightful flavor. It never exacts of its users the tribute of sleep- lessness, heart-flutter, head- ache and other ills often caused by the drug, caf- feine, in tea and coffee. Instant Postum has a delicious, snappy flavour and is absolutely free from caffeine or any harmful ingi\?dient. In- stant Postum is in con- densed, soluble form, and wonderfully convenient loi the home â€" for the picric â€" for travel â€" everywhere. If tea or coffee interferes with comfort or success, as it does for many users, try a shift to Postum. "There's a Reason" Oiwmdiun Postun\ Cereal t'o . I.cd.. Windsor. Ont. SKIING IN NORWAY. An Exhilarating Sight to See a Troop of Soldiers on Skis. When anyone WTites of skiing in Norway, it is the purely Norwegian aspect of the sport that is of the most Interest, says a correspondent of the London Times. Mountain skiing is. with the minor variations, due to local conditions, the same the world over; forest skiing is essentially the pas- time of Norway. Those who are ac- customed to the long runs over per- fect snow common in Switzerland find little pleasure in following narrow and tortuous tracks through forest, and are, of course, incapable of marking out) such a track for themselves; for forest skiing requires skill of a wholly different order from that necessary in the open. The paths are often hard and very bumpy, speed is quickly gathered, and great command over the ski is necessary to keep the balance and take the sharp turns between the trees. Few more exhilarating sights can be imagined than a troop of Nor- wegian soldiers flittring through the forest in Indian file, hard on each other's heels, all going full speed, prodding with thefr sticks to increase the pace even down the hills, never faltering at the bumps, and swinging round the bends without a check. The course of the fifty-kilometre race, which t«akcs place annually be- fore the great jumping competition at Holmenkollen, is laid right through the great forest of Nordmarken, and is covered by many of the competitors in about four hours and a quarter â€" not bad going for thirty-one miles up hill, down dale, and cross lakes, wit-h the finish no lower than the stave. The track to be followed is marked by lit- tle red streamers hung to the trees at intervals. It is laid by officials of the ski club, who delight in choosing the most difficult way they can find, and the actual tracks of whose skis con- stitute the course. Last year I spent a night ii\ a hut in the forest and went oub in the morning to see the runners pass. They had been going about six miles when they passed me, and I chose a nice, Ethick place on a good slope to see them go by. .As they must go in sin- gle file they are started at two- minute int»ervals, and a competitor who is caught up with must give his pursuer room to pass him. There were thirty or forty starters, all very young men, and they went through ^he thicket. at full speed. I had the ill- natured satisfaction of seeing two fall who failed to clear a particularly malicious bush with the tips of their skis; they pitvhed on their heads, but they were up again in a trice. Several of them avoided that particular ftish with a side jump taken at the last mo- ment, which served further to increase their pace. They were all going with an easy swing, which carried them with hardly an effort over the ground. « CAT WARNED LOST CRUISER. When Arethnusa Last Left Port Its Pet Refused to Go Aboard. Seamen may be a supers titiouslot. but withal they are scientific. They want to know the reason for things, in witness whereof it the following story of the ill-fated Arethusa, Brit- ish battle cruiser, hero of a numbar of thrilling sea frays at the begin- ning of the war. It was sunk by a mine off the east coast of England last February. A writer in the Lon- don Dispatch tells the story: "Talking to a member of the crew of the late H.M.S. .Arethusa, I was interested to learn from him the story of the ship's pet, a cat. "It is a curimis fact that when the Arethusa was taking in oil fue. be- fore leaving port on its last journey the mascot jumped from the cruiser on to the oil craft, and refused, de- spite all entreaties and caresses, to return to the doomed vessel. The ] cat hr\d never done this before, and the 'tars' regarded i's defection as ' an ill cmen." stinging1<euralgia' The Trouble Due to Nerves Starved for Lack of Good Blood. .An eminent medical writer has said that "neuralgia is the cry of starved nerves for better blood." The one great! symptom of this trouble is pain, fierce, stabbing pain, that almost drives the sufferer frantic. The one cause is poor blood; the only cure is to enrich the blood. Heat applied to the inflamed nerves will give relief, but does not cure. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills furnish the blood all the needed elements, and the blood conveys them to the nerves. The only way of get- ting food or medicine to the nerves is thiough the blood, and the only way to enrich the blood is through a fair use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. In this way neuralgia, sciatica and other nerve disorders are promptly cured, and the whole system benefited and strengthened. Mrs. M. Gleason. R.R. No. 1, Uxbridge, Ont., who was a great sufferer from neuralgia, says: "I suffered intensely from neuralgia for four years. My blood was thin and I was completely run down. I suffered intjnse pain all the time. At different times I consulteti three doc- tors, but their treatment did no more than give me temporary relief. Then I tried different medicines, but the result was the same â€" t4iey seemed no good in my case. I was growing steadily worse, and finally could not do a bit of work. The last doctor I j consulted could do nothing for me [ but give me morphine tablets to ease I the pain, and by this time I had about ! resigned myself to a life of pain. Then one of Dr. Williams' almanacs came to our house and I read of similar cases cured through the use of Pink Pills. I got three bo.xes and before they were all gone the pain began to decrease, and I began to have a belter appetite. By the time I had taken six boxes I was again a well woman, and my neighbors could hardly realize that such a change could be made in so short a time. Later I was bothered with eczema and Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cured me. I have found these Pills worth their weight in gold and I cheerfully recommend them to all who are ailing." You can get these Pills from any medicine dealer or by mail at 50 cents a bo.x or sL\ boxes for $2 . 50 from The Dr. Williams'- Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.

Wonderful Record of Lord Brasscy and the [Junbeam. Lord Brassey, who recently cele- brated his eightieth birthday, is al- ways associated in the public mind with the ownership of one of the most famous yachts in the world, the Sun- beam. I The Sunbeam has now '>een pre- sented to the Government of India for war service, and is doing duty as a hospital ship for convalescent of- ficers off .Alexandria. Built forty-two years ago, she has taken her owner all over the world at various times, having staled ap- proximately 400,000 miles on herâ€" and hi;;â€" travels. Holding his "master's ticket." as seaman call a captain's certificate. | Lord Brassey has come safely i through innumerable dangers with the Sunbeam. Almost at the very start of her first voyage round the world a huge "following" wave as nearly as possible swept half a doten of the party overboard. Writing of the incident in her ; book. "A Voyage in the Sunbeam," Lady Brassey (Lord Braseey's first wife) said: | "We were all sitting or standing about the stern of the vessel, ad- miring the magnificent dark blue bil- lows following us. .A new hand was i steering, and just at the moment when an unusually big wave over- took us, he unfortunately allowed the vessel to broach-to a little. "In a second the sea came pouring over the stern. A coil of rope on which Capt. Lecky (Lord Brassey 's skipper and Babelle tone of the Brassey children) were seated was completely flooded by the sea. Provi- dentially, however, he had taken a double turn around his wrist with a reefing point, and, throwing his oth- er arm round Mabelle, held on like grim death. "Capt. Lecky, being accustomed to very large ships, had not in the least realized how near we were to the water in our little vessel" â€" the ton- nage of the Sunbeam is only 227 tons "and was proportionately taken by surprise." The correct nauticial description of the Sunbeam is: "A three-masted topsail schooner, fitted with auxiliary power"â€" that is to say, she is equip- ped with both sails and engines. Over 2.000 women and girls work in one shed alone in a Birmingham munition factory. Aik (or Mlnard't and tak* no otHU A VERY MYSTERIOUS TRICK. A Simple Bit of Magis That ii> Very Puzzling. A puzzling trick which will perplex your friends can be performed with j an ordinary egg. some vinegar, and a bottle. Take an uncooked egg and ; let it stand for 15 or 20 minutes in j pure vinegar. At the end of this time you will notice that the shell of â-  the egg has become so soft that you ! can make a deep dent in it without ' making a hole. Get a bottle, the neck of which is ] smaller than the e?g, and with the ' fingers draw out the shell until you | can in.--ert it into the neck of the bot- tle. After you have the egg inside, pour cold water into the botle atnd the egg will resume its original shape. If the vinegar in which the egg is toftened is not strong enough, add about two tiiblespoonfuls of acetic acid to a cupful of vinegar. Usually, however, ordinary vin-.gar contains sufficient strength. | Your friends will wonder how you succeeded in getting the egg. unbrok- en, through the small neck of the bot- tle. People will sit for an hour ex- amining the bottle and looking for a secret crack where they believe the bottle must have been taken apart. * â€" Keev Mlaard's Itiaiment in tht hooM An Unfortunate Case.

Through precept and example the company has brought about a most flattering change in values. In other word.-, the example und encourage- ment of the railway company, through these farms and by other means. have caused those who have food pro- ducts to sell to give closer attention to (luality than was their former habit. The company insists upon the first- rate <]uality of food products on the car.»; and ha.'; taught the farmers, both east and west, how best to supply .â- \1 quality in butter, eggs, fowl, etc. In the neat an, i tidy putting up of food products, too, there has been de- cidetl improvement. The farmers have been set a fine example; and the peo- ple have seen, right at their elbow, that values can be greatly enhanced bv careful attention to details. - ♦ .'Vrousing Suspicion.
