Most people think of neuralgia as a pain In the heacWor in the (ace, but neuralgia may atfect any nerve in the body. Different names are given to it when it affects certain nerves. Thus neuralgia of the sciatic nerve is called 8<^iatica, but the character of the pain and the nature of the disease are the 'same. The cause being the same, the cure to be effective must be the same. The pain in neuralgia is caused by starved nerves. The blood which car- ries nourishment to the nerves has be- .:onie thin and impure and no longer does 80, and the pain you feel is the cry of the nerves for their natural food. You may ease the pain of neur- algia with hot applications, but you can only cure the trouble by enriching and purifying the blood. For this pur- pose we know of no medicine that can equal Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. These pills actually make new, rich blood and thus act as the most efficient of The Conquest Numbly he stumbled to the untaken wall.

And fell beneath a foeman's frantic blow, A bubble of blood upon his last, ilerce breath. Then strove his spirit, and, a con- queror, lo. He stood upon the battlements of death.

New Game Foods From the North Of course it will come as a shock to the Englishman, in touring Canada, to take his favorite chair at the table in his favorite hotel or restaurant, scan the card and find that roast beef, just plain roast beef, is missing. But In its place he may find roast rein- deer, broiled .Arctic musk ox or a cut of caribou, .-^nd the Englishman, lov- ing to take a chance, because he likes game foods, most likely will order the reindeer, the musk ox or the carfbou. In 1917 when the shortage of foods throughout the world became serious and the Allies, wherever they might live, were urged to speed up produc- tion if the war was to be won, the De- \ partment of the Interior had passed the Northwest game act placing the fur trapping and trading industry un- der control. Closely following a com- mission was appointed to consider the advisability and possibility of develop- IHR reindeer and musk ox herds as a means of supplying food and clothins. The results are beginning to be real- t ized now, and the commission reports that Canada has available for this new industry more than 1.000.000 square miles in the North, and that all of this i is suitable for the propagation of the I reindeer and the musk ox, and that the caribouâ€" the barren laud caribou : â€" already thrives there. 1 This territory is unsuited for the I cultivation of fruits and cereals, but for grazing purposes it is excellent. In ; other parts of the world the increased j cultivation of fruits and grains has de- , creased the areas suited for grazing ; purposes, but on these wild square miles in the north of Canada there has been no encroachment due to the war ' and !ts call for increased food sup- ; plies. 1 Alceady it has been found that the 1 .-Vrctic musk ox. a. rather untractable animal, can be domesticated, and that he will yield a large meat supply with a game taste, to be sure, and that at ' the same time he will assist in in- I creasing the supply of wool. Keep, Implements Under Cover. If one travels through the country at the present time, the haying and harvesting machinery on many farms I may be seen standing in the field where last used. It may have been : drawn out into the lane somewhere or may even b& at the barn, but not inside it. In the Prairie Provinces I there seems to be a sort of reckless \ abandon regarding the use of machin- 1 ery. When a binder breaks down it is ] often drawn off to one side of the field and forsaken when it could be , easily repaired and made to serve for a season or two longer. The prices of all kinds of farm im- plements have gone up and it is poor business to neglect the machinery b^ leaving it exposed to the weather. The wooden parts soon rot away and the metal parts rust out It takes longer also to get a rusty implement into working order again. It is frequently stated that the far- mer is and must be to-day more of a business man than formerly. Men in other lines of business where ma- chinery Is employed see that it is oiled and properly cared for in order to keep down production costs. The farmer should do the same. \Vhen he pays the price that he has to pay to-day tor machinery he should take good care of it. Cost of production can be reduced in this way, which means increased profits. Try it. BIT5 OF HUMOR FROM HIRE &TVI£!U KirP WAarTED.

WELL SmSFIED WITH B.\BY S OW.^ T.4BLETS A Bird That Hates Darkness For many years the annual migra- tion of the birds, although a perfectly familiar fact, was shrouded in mys- tery. Except in the case of a few birds like the robin, which winters not far south of its summer home, no one knew where the song birds or the shore birds went in the fall, or whan they 1-egaa their uorthward flight in the spring. But the subject has been carefully and patiently studied by so many ob- servers and naturalists that it is no longer impossible to answer these questions. The cliff swallows and blackpoll warblers spend their winters In tropical South America; the golden plover, which nests on the Arctic Soa. winters S.OOO miles away in the .\r- gentine; the scarlet tanager is to be found in December and January In Ecuador and Peru, and the bobolink In southern Brazil. For a long time it was thought that the golden plover bore off the palm for length of flight between summer and winter homes, but now that dis- tinction is awarded to the .Vrctic hen. This bird breeds as far north as it can find anything stable on which to con- struct its nest: it has been found within seven a;id a half degrees of the pole. .Vnd that nest was found lurrounded by a wall oC^owly fallen snow which the mother bird had care- fully scooped out from round her chick. The tern arrives in the Far North about June 15. and leaves again for the south toward the end of August, when the young birds are able to fly stro«gly. Two or three months later the birds are |(iund skirting the edge of the Antarctic continent, 11.000 miles away. What their track is over that vast space no one yet knows. .\ few individuals are occasionally seen along the New England coast in the fafh but the flocks of thousands and thousands of these gregarious birds which alternate from pole to pole have never been met by any trained ob^rver competent to learu their pre- ferred path and their time schedule. They must travel at least 150 miles a day â€" apart from their flights in search or pursuit of food â€" to cany them with- in ten or twelve weeks from one eud of the world to the other The .Arctic tern enjoy more hours of sunlight than any other creature on the globe. The sun never sets dur- ing its stay at the northern nesting grounds, and durin)# the stay in the south it has two months of continuous sunlight and practical daylight tor be- tween six and eight months of the yei'.r.

La Presentation, Que., writes: â€" "I have used Baby's Own Tablets for my baby and am well saysfied with them. 1 have recom- mended them to several of my friends who have also usod them with bene- ficial results."

Poisonous matter clogged in the in- testines, instead of being cast out of file system is re-absorbed into the blood. When this poison reaches the delicate brain tissue it causes conges- tion and that dull, throbbing, sicken- ing headache. Cascarets immediately cleanse the stomach, remove the sour, undigested food and foul gases, take the excess bile from the liver and carry out all the constipated waste matter and poi- sons in the bowels.

SUsoid'a &lalEient Saliavaa Nenralglx A Giant Sun. Canopus, the giant of the solar sy< tern, is, according to a recent calcul.i- tion. 4'J,00i) times as bright as the sun. Its diameter Is 134 times that of the 8^n; it is 18.000 ti:aes larger In sur- face? and 2,420,000 times larger in volume. The distance of it from us. according to this calculation, is 4S9 light years. "Suppose," sa\'^ another authorlt;-. "that instead of being at this enor- mous distance it were placed in the centre of the solar system, in lieu of the sun? It would then occupy .85 of the spacg lying within the orbit of Venus, and as seen from the earth would subtend an angle of about 70 degrees ot arc. Thus, when its lower limb was on our horizon, its upper would be within 20 degrees of the zenith. Needless to say. no life could e.xist ou (»irth with sui.h a neighbor. Ouch !?:?!!
