GRATEFUL PARENTS POUR OUT THANKS TO TANLAC Fi^e in One Family Are Helped â€" ^Mother and Father ; Give DetaiU. Yha value of Tanlae as a familr medicine and tonic la again very force- tulljr demonstrated. This time In the honae of Mr. and Mri. Joseph E. Kaake, 2436 Klrby Ave. West. Detroit, Uicb., where father and mother and •very member of the family have been benefited by the wholesome and help- ful ingredients of the famous prepara- tion. Recently, In spealiing for herself and children, Mrs. Kaake said: "For more than a year our three little oaea â€" ^John, age 6; Elwyn, 4; and Margar- ita, 2, â€" bad been so peaked and life- leea that we were seriously worried about them. Their stomachs were up- set, appetites poor, the color had left their cheeks, their nights were rest- leas, and during the day they would ! lost mope arou-'I. taking no interest | In play or anything else. | "They began to eat and sleep better ' almost from the first dose of Tanlae, ! •^a have picked up now until you couldn't find three healthier or more active children in all Detroit. They eat ravenously, the color of health has returned to their cheeks, and they Just want to be on the go all the time. 1 hare alto taken Tanlae to build me up, and it never 8e«ms to fail." "As to my personal experience with Tanlae," Gald .Mr. Kaake, "I simply can't express in words the great help It gave me. About a year ago I was a victlji of boils, actually having lUty- one on me, and was so play6.1 out that I couldn't do a bit of work for weeks. My suffering was almost unbearable. I cared little for food, suffered with Fevere headaches and stomach pains, and got so weak and oervous that I felt discouraged. "Tanlae corrected my stomach disorders, woke up my appetite, cleansed my blood and toned up my system so that the boils went away, and nothing of the kind has bothered me £ince. I have gained 23 lbs., and I eat, sleep and feel Uke a brand-new man. We have given Tanlae a fair trial and found it wonderful, and it anyone doubts cur statement they can write personally. We wouldn't think of being without Tanlae." Tanlae is for sale by all good drug- gists. Accept no substitute. Over 40 Million bottles sold. Tanlae Vegetable PUls, for consti- pation, made and recommended by the manufacturers of TANLAC. Lions and Leopards Ravage North Rhodesia Farms. Farmhouses in the bush bordering Ba the northern Rhodesian frontier have recently been in a state of siege owing to the activities of lions. The animals have come out of the Jangle In daylight and attacked the farm ani- mals, carrying off some of them. In some cases the natives working on the tarma have been attacked, and several have been killed. The lions are often joined by leopards and have appeared In such numbers that the set- tlers are forced to go about only in large groups and to keep a constant guard over their families and stock. The wife of a railroad employee re- pojTts a thrilling adventure in this con- nev:tion. Mrs. McLean left her home at Garu£o on a bicycle to visit neigh- bors. Reaching a river she found two lardie lions on the bank. She was so near that she could not retreat and prepared to fight for her life, but at the first shot the animals ran. She then proceeded and shortly came across a big leopard eating an ox. The leopard also made a hasty getaway, but followed Mrs. McLean for some tlr/e. Arriving at the farm she found it had been attacked for several weeks 'by the animals and many cattle had been lost. Next day she was escorted back to her home by a neighbor and ten natives, who, on leaving Mrs. Mc- Let n, found they had been tracked all the way by lions. Mrs. McLean's es- cape was probably due to the fact that the animals had eaten their fill of oxen. A SPLEiliDID LIX4TI?£ FOR m BiBY Mothers should constantly be on guard to keep baby's bowels working freely and his stomach sweet, for nine-tenths of the ailments from which little ones suffer are caused by de- rangements of the stomach and bowels. Baby's Own Tablets are a splendid laxative for the baby. They are mild but thorough; contain neith- er opiatee nor narcotics, and are ab- solutely guaranteed to be safe and efficient for cither the newborn babe or the growing child. By their action on the bowels and stomach they drive out constipation and indigestion; break up colds and simple fevers and make the dreaded teething period easy. The Tablets are soHd by medi- cine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. What is your attitude toward the vari- ous forms of life about you? Men, wo- men, children, the beasts of the field, the birds of the air, the four-footed in- mates of the home â€" these are the things, if I may use the word, your treatment of which will tell how civil- ized you are, far more than your rela- tion to bonds or banks or books or es- 'jites, or even that highly exalted thing men call "society." The most perfect example of the moet perfect civilization was a man who had never been to college, who was ostracized by nearly all the social leaders of his day, who even had no place to lay his head. This man, by his spirit, his life of love, kindness, goodwill. Justice, compassion, stands to-day, two thousand years since he came among us, humanity's Ideal of what is highest and finest in the only civilization wholly worth the name. How civilized am I? Nothing ans- wers the question more accurately than my treatment of my fellows, my sympathy or lack of It, with all those lowly forms of life about me with their capacity for pleasure and pain. Just so far as I have achieved nly ends at the cost of human kindness, in dis- regard of the rights of other sentient beings, by so much am I uncivilized and back in these far-off ages when might made right, and force, not love, claimed empire over men. A Poem You Ou^t to Know. "In the Spring." The chief literary figure of the Vic- torian age was Lord Tennyson, Poet I^Aureate. The following passage from "Lccksley Hall" represfcnu the poet at h!,3 best: - In the .Spring a fuller crimson comes upon the robin's breast; i In the Spring rhe wanton lapwing geia i himself another creit; j In the Spring a livelier iris changes { on the burnished dove; I Ini the Spring a young man's fancy I lightly turns to thoughts of love. I Then her cheek was pale and thinner I than should be for one so young, 1 And her eyes on all my motions with I a mute observance hung. And I said, ".'Vly cousin ^Vmy, speak, and speak the truth to me. Trust me. cousin, all the current of my being sets to thee." On her pailid cheek and 'orehead came a color and a light. As I have seea the rosy red flushing in the northern light. And she turned â€" her bosom shaken with a sudden storm of sighs â€" All the spirit deeply dawning In the dark of hazel eyes â€" Saying, "I have hid my feelings, fear- ing they should do me wrong"; Saying, "Doet thou love me, cousin?" weeping, "I liave loved thee long." Love took up the glass of Time, and turned it in his glowing hands: Every moment, lightly shaken, ran it- self in golden sands. Love took up the harp of Life, and smote on all the cords with might; Smote the chord of Self, that, tremb- ling, passed in music out of sight. STORIES OF WELL. KNOWN PEOPLE v MacDonald't Magic Hat "Mr. Ramsay ilarDonald's magic top bat will live in story as one of the most potent pieces of headgear ever created - It has sent up the prices of stocks and shares," saye the Dally Ex- press. "Prices began to rise on Tuesday as soon as the fact became known that the new prime minister had donned a j top hat when he was dummoaed to Buckingham Palace. I "They continued to rise on Wednes- j day and Thursday, and yesterday they I were higher than at any time during the week." GIRLHOOD DANGERS How Civilized Are You? Don't be afraid of the Question. It Ifl easy to answer. The finest repre- sentatives of civilization are by no means found among the so-called cultl- TSted and educated classes. Civiliza- tion depends upon what we call pro- 'gress tor less than many think. Here's the heart of the matter: When May Rides In. (England) When May rides in, rejoicing. The speckled thrushes sing, The buds burst forth to greet her. The scented blue-bells ring; While lower, softer music Chimes from the pearly bells Of lllies-of-the-valley. That haunt the leafy dells. In many a sheltered hollow. Pale woodruff stars are sweet. And blue ground-ivy carpets The earth beneath her feet. While silvery willows shiver By many a shady pool. And golden king-cupe shimmer Above the waters cool. When May rides In, rejoicing. The snowy hawthorn flowers Breathe incense sweet around her. And from her verdant bowers Tha merry cuckoos' music Re-echoes all day long, And In the grove and coppice We hear the blackbird's song. â€" Maud E. Sargent. â€" â-  o . Keep MlnartTs LlnlnMMt hi the liou«» Every child should be given the opportunity to learn something about his relation to the universe in which he lives. It is the responsibility of parents and teachers to see that the minds of our boys and girls are open ed to the voices of nature â€" that thoir senses are so trained that all the world becomes alive to them. Nature study has a necessary place in child traininia; that nothing else can flll. Can Be Avoided by Keeping the Blood Rich and Pure. The anaemia of young girls may be inherited, or it may be caused by bad air, unsuitable food, hasty and irre- gular eating. Insufficient out-door ex- ercise and not enough rest and sleep. It comes on gradually, beginning with languor, indisposition to exertion and a feeling of fatigue. Later comes pal- pitation of the heart and headaches. In the majority of cases constipation !Is present, and the complexion takes 'on a greenish-yellow '"allor. The treat- ment is quite easy and simple. Dr. Williams' Pink PUls are Just the tonic to remedy this wretched state of health. They act directly upon the blood, and as It becomes rich and pure strength and activity returns, the glow of health comes to the cheeks, and soon the trouble will disappear and good health follow. Miss Pearl Parks, R.R. No. 1, Reaboro, Ont., has proved the value of this medicine, and her statement will point the way to health to all other weak girls. She gays: â€" "I was very ill with anaemia. I could not sleep at night; my appe- tite was poor, my face and lips were very pale and my eyes dull. I got so weak that I could not go upstairs with- out resting. I took dizzy and fainting spells, had no ambition whatever, and did not care to go about. I was in this condition for nearly a year. I had treatment from two doctors; but did not regain my strength, so my mother, who was very uneasy about me, decided I should try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. After using the pills for a while I felt somewhat better, and continued taking them until I had used about a dozen boxes, when I was again well and strong. I can strongly recommend Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for the treatment of any suffering from anaemia." You can get these Pills from any medicine dealer or by mail at 50 cts. a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. • Willie's Wisdom. Willie was fishing. "Willie:" It was his mother's voice, but he was sheltered from the house by trees, and she could not possibly see him. So Willie went on fishing. "Willie:" Still Willie went on fishing. "WUlle!" Willie began re-baiting his hook. He had Just secured the worm when his friend, Bert, approached. â- 'Don't you hear your mother callln' you?" said Bert. ''Thafs three times she's shouted. Aren't you going in?" "No," responded Willie, imperturb- ably. "Won't she whip you?" asked his friend. "No," repeated Willie, disdainfully. "She ain't going to whip nobody. She's got company; so when 1 go in she'll Just say. 'The poor little fellow's been so deaf since he had the measles.' " THe Parson and the Pig. Famous as the author of "Onward. Christian Soldiers," the late Rev. S. Baring-Gould told a quaint story of an old Cornish w^oman who was worried about the health of her favorite pig, and asked him to say a prayer over It. He suggested that it mig^t be as well if she brought a "vet" to the ani- mal, but she had such faith that he went to the pigsty and thus addressed the porker: "O pig. If thou livest thou iivest; but. O pig, if thou dieat thou diest." The animal got well and strong, and the old lady believed that it was the parson who cured it I Interpreting Her. A delightful stco'. reminiscent poe- slbly of his own schooldays, was told recently by General Sir Ian Hamilton. It concerned a lady w^ho drove up in a beautifully-appointed motor-car to the entrance of the football field of a certain b!g public schooL Alighting from her car she called to one of the boys, and said, "Will you tell the Hon. Algernon de Montmor- ency that hl.s mother. Lady Fitzwater, wishes to see him?" A moment later the boy was heard shouting. "Stinker, your mater's land- ed!" «t« Wr** rr«M â- Â»i<I» I>Mton, â€" " rfeMM; «*ia t««l How He Knew This Ship. Scotsmen tell stories against one an- other with gusto, but it has "oeen re- served for no less a personage than the Madquess of Aberdeen to start broad casting them. Here, for instance. Is one, and to an -Aberdeen audience, too. An old pilot at a certain port of en- try professed to be able to tell the home port of any incoming vessel within a reasonable distance by what seamen still call "the cut of her Jib." meaning thereby her general appear- ance, and did so. To test his powers still further, how- ever, an onlooker called his attention to one in the far distance. The pilot gazed long and earnestly, and eventually pronounced her to be an Aberdeen boat. He proved to be right, and a chorus of surprised voices Inquired how he knew. "No seagulls following her:" was his terse reply. â- *-a Harbor Lights. I rarely glimpse from this far hill The sapphire band they call the sea. For my house broods within the wood And I am held there helplessly. But I can feel its mighty breath When all the world is wild with wind; i And I can hear the voice of it ! When great ships cry. fog-frightened, blind ; And always in the finespun dark Between the leaves I see Its eyes: The tireless, gleaming, friendly fires That qulcic each captain's enterprise. One steadfast light is poised o'er all; A silver shaft leaps up to it To fix it there â€" so they believe â€" For none save seamen's benefit. Yet though my ship's an empty room. My haven but a visloned thing. That constant star points out a port Where I may find an entering. â€" Gardner Weeks Wood. The safe way to s«nd money by mail la by Dominior Exprese Money Order.
