Warm Weather Talk
This is tho hardest timo of tlio year to cater to one's
appetite. Cooking over a hot stove, does not help it
any, so to avoid the dircomfort and have something
palateable, try some of our Meats, ready cooked: —
feoAST MUTTON,       ROAST BEEF,       VEAL LOAF,      CHICKEN,
TONGUE, TURKEY.
Then for something nice in Table Fruit, try a tin of
Pineapple, one of the nicest fruits for the hot weather.

A number of misunderstandings

A rare and very valuable mineral
has been discovered among the ores
from the Meteor mine, and it is exciting much attention here. Two weeks
ago C. B. Taylor, one of the lessees of
the property, noticed a peculiar streak
(j/ stuff running along oue wall, whieh
lie at first took to lie ledge matter, but
its weight, equal lo that of galena, assured him that it was mineral of some
description. He brought a sample of
it down to W. S. Johnson, the* local
assayer.who put it through a thorough
test and analysis, and has finally pronounced it Tungsten. So far as is
known, this is the first time the mineral has been found in the province,
and naturally Mr. Johnson fs'fls a bit
elated,
Tungsten is used as a mixture with
ste»*l for the making of special armor
plate for warships, and in the manufacture of first quality tool steel, It
hai a great hardening effect on steel
and is capable of a very line temper.

"Tliere's nothing honest about me,"
protested Eslmeudorf gloomily. "It's
niy luck; I never have a chance. By
the way," he milled, changing his tone,
"Robinson knew Miss Miller quite -well,
didn't he?"
"Ouly Ihrough me," answered Alden.
"I used to get hlm to take messages to
her house quite often. It was convenient; ho lived uear by."
"Yes," said I'lmendorf. "They told
tne nt the house thnt he enme quite often. Do you remember the first note
with her name on It that you ever gnve
hlm? Well. I happen to know thnt he
took It to your bookkeeper, Wlllett, and
nsked who Miss Miller was. He seemed to he quite Interested. Afterward
he told Wlllett tlmt he wns mistaken ln
supposing thnt he knew Miss Miller.
lt was another girl of the same name."
"If ynu are trying to work Jack Robinson Into this ease," snld Aldeu, "you
nre a lung way off tho track."
Elmendorf protested that he had no
such Intention, adding that he hnd no
rational theory of the case nud never
expected to have one.
When they entered St. Winifred's,
they met Dr. Kendnll, who bad just
come from a visit to Elsie. He led
them Into his own room.
"I'm sorry to tell you," he said to
Alden, "that Miss Miller Is not quite so
well Just now. I wouldn't advise seeing her. Mr. Robinson delivered your
message."
"Whnt message? When?" demanded Alden.
"He was here about half an hour
ago," said Kendall, with Increasing
alarm as he noted the ruauner of the
others. "He said It was something
very Important from you, and after
consulting with Miss Machine I let him
speak with Miss Miller lu private for a
few minutes. I thought she seemed
somewhat disturbed afterward, but she
told us that the matter was ot small
consequence."
"I know nothing whatever about It,"
exclaimed Alden. "1 disl uot semi him
here and had no Idea he was coming."
He turned to Elmendorf with a
sharply questioning glance.
"Well, you can search me," snld the
detective.
"You mean that you know nothing
about lt?" asked Kendall anxiously.
"Less than nothing," responded Elmendorf, "nud I'm giving you straight
goods too."
There was a knock nt Kendall's door,
and he admitted a nurse, who said that
Miss Maclane wished to see hlm. He
did not wait to speak a single word,
but hurried awej'. Aldeu tried to get
an explanatiou from the nurse, but she
professed to have none.
l-'or nearly an hour the two men
waited with Impatience, which linn Ily
passed Alden's power of endurance.
"I must get some word from her," he
said after much pacing of the Boor.
"There must be serious danger or he
would not stay so lout;."
Blmendorf pointed out the obvious
possibility that Kendall might long
since have answered Miss Machine's
summons and hnve gone upon any of
a hundred other duties, but Alden
would uot be thus quieted. He ws-nt
out to the office to nsk In whut way he
could commuulcnte with the doctor,
and within a minute after his dcp.'ir-
I ture Kendall entered the room.
He had a large glass jar tu his band,
which seemed to contain milk. This
he set down upon the table ond Immediately touched an electric button.
"How Is she?" asked Blmendorf iu a
tone betraying the most caruest solicitude.
"Better, better," replied Kendall. "1
think there's no longer any danger.
Where is Mr. Alden?"
"No longer any danger!" exclaimed
Elmendorf, Ignoring the question.
"Has there been any?"
"Well," said Kendall, "she fainted
again."
"Again!"
"The first time was Just before vou
came up," said Kendall. "Don't sa*.
anything about this. We had Just given her a little luncheon, nnd I thought
perhaps sho might have had some small
stomach trouble; oppresses tho heart
sometimes, you know. Itut I don't like
this second attack Henrt failure ufter
the Injury and tho nervous exhaustion
wouldn't be the most unliks'ly thing In
thc world, you know. Ah! Come here.
Oeorgo."
The last words were addresser" to a
youth ln uniform who hoai answered
the doctor's ring. Kendnll gave him
some money nnd whispered tai idm near
the door. When he turned, as George
departed, he saw Elmendorf standing
rigid, with bis blue eyes unusually
wide open.
"Whit do you want of two white
mice?" he demanded.
"Really, now"— Kendall began.
"Look here," Interrupted Elmendorf
"If there's anything of Unit kind going on, I'm tho man you need, Don't
hide anything from me; fur the little
girl's sake, don't do It, doctor."
Kondall bit bis lips and hesitated
Tben he said suddenly, as steps were

"Oft blm oul of here and enme bnck."
Ahlen entered nnd stopped short. In
bis own peculiar fashion, with his eys s
on the doctor.
"It's all right," said Kendnll. "Mia
Miller showed some Indications of
weakness, but Is doing nicely now. I
should think you might see ber about
6 o'clock."
"Well, doctor, I'm glnsl everything's
ell right," said Kltteodorf. "I begun
to be anxious, you wire so long awuy.
But what you've said has made me
feel easy again, and so I think the best
thing that Mr. Alden and I cau do is
to try to get sonic light on Mr. Robin*
son's strange conduct. The man may
hnvo struck some kind of a clew nnd
have rushed right off to verify lt without waltlug to consult anybody."
"I didn't think of that," responded
Alden. "It may be tbat you've found
the explanation."
"1 would suggest tbat you go to his
house," said Elmendorf. "Meanwhile
I'll telephone to your office and one or
two other places and see If 1 can get
track of hlm. But the likeliest place
Is his house. Walt tbere for me. I'll
Join you before 3."
This arrangement was agreed upon,
nnd tho two men went out together.
Elmendorf was busy with the telephone for half an bour, but he failed
"Miss Maclane?" snld Elmendorf.
"My friend, I don't believe It."
Kendall looked up at hlm wltb a
blank stare and shook bis bead.

He sat down and rested his head on his
hands.
to extract valuable information from
any person with whom he talked, although tho chief of the detective bureau was one of them.
Returning to the hospital, ho went at
once to Kendall's room. In answer to
his rap and the sound of his voice the
door wns unlocked and he was admitted. In passing be glanced scnrchingly
nt Kendall's face, which wore an expression of extreme anxiety; then he
advanced to tbe table in the middle oi
the room, frnm which lie lifted a newspaper, thus revealing the bodies of two
little white mice.
Elmendorf regarded them with a look
of horror.
"(.ood Lord!" he gasped. "You don't
mean lt?"
Keinlall nodded. Then he sat down
anil rested his head on his hands for a
few seconds, while Blmendorf gathered breath aud heart for the next question.
"What was In the jar-milk?"
"No," replied Kendall, "lt is a kind
of lispiid food preparation. The basis
of it is milk; but, unfortunately," he
added, looking up at the detective, "It
Will keep."
"liecn in the room several days, you
moan?" said Blmendorf. "If It was ordinary milk thnt bad been dosed, we
could narrow It down to a few hours.
But this stuff—why, absolutely everybody connected with the caso has had
a chance at it."
"Mow shall 1 tell her?" muttered
Kendall.
"Her?"
The doctor gave a nervous start
"Miss Machine," be snid. "This will
be a hard story for her to hear."
"You nre right," replied Elmendorf,
"after nil the care she's taken, the devotion she's shown to that poor child,
who was nothing to her—worse than
nothing, In fact—un enemy, you might
sny."
"Now, look here"— exclnlmed Kendall hoarsely as he pot upon his feet
"No. no!" cried Elmendorf. "I dou't
mean to accuse ber. That would be
absurd. We mustn't waste time. What
was the poison?*'
"I don't know," replied Kendall. "Of
course there was no time for analysis.
That's why I tried It on these small animals. It's somo kind of a heart depressant—the very thing to use In a
cise of this kind, where the condition ls
one of weakness and especially where
thero Is an Injury lu tbe region of tbe
organ."
"Bnt didn't these mice show any
symptoms thnt you could recognize?"
nsked Elmendorf.
"No; nothing definite I could name
several poisons that would answer nil
the reoulrementa. it isn't necessary to
know Immediately. The treatment
would be the same In any case. And
tbe danger is over, I believe."
"Unless It's somewhere else," snld
Elmendorf; "In her medicines, perhaps."
"That wouldn't be posslhlo without
assuming something that can't be assumed—uot In my nrosoncc, et any
lite."
"Yon mean thnt Miss Maclane"—
"Precisely," snld Kendall. "And as
there can be nn thought of such a
thing wo conclude that this Infernal
thing"—nnd he tapped tho Jar with his
knuckles—"Wblcb was handy for everybody, wide mouthed and all that—
Oh, 1 have been an Idiot!"
"She's been having this right along,"
said Blmendorf. "That might Indicate"—
"Nothing until we know Just whnt
the stuff U and how much of It we
have to deal with," replied Kendall.
"The effects observed may come from
what she ute tills noon or be the general result of small, repeated iloses."
"There's one thing," uttiu Elmendorf
with derision—"thia villainous net must
have been done by somebody who
knew that the food was there, liy some
one who had been In the room several
times"—
"Don't." groaned Kondall. "By heavens, 1 can't bear to think of It! I like
Alden. I can't believe this of hlm.
Anil—and sho loves him; she loves hlm
Just as much now as over."
HEY say," remarked
Elsie, "that people
always feel particularly well Just before they die. Do
you remember Bernhardt In 'Cainllle,'
the very last words
before she dlea In Armand's arms: I
shall live! Ah, how well I feel!' How
I cried when sbe said thatl And then
Gaston says, 'She sleeps.' Isn't thut a
lovely scene?"
"As It came to your mind at this moment," said Brenda, "1 Joyfully Infer
that you are feeling very much better."
"You must think I am silly to talk
so much about dying," said Elsie. "1
am soggy wltb sentimentality."
"You bavo mentioned lt on Just four
occasions," said Brenda, "Including
tbls, but lt seems often to us because
we don't wish to lose you and to yourself because really and truly you don't
wish to die. On the whole, you have
been ns cheerful as any girl could possibly be under the circumstances, nnd
as for your sentimentality, my dear,
I'd give tbe world to bave some of It
myself."
"I was going to say," continued Elsie, "tbat my motive for continually
harping on It Is that you may know I
am not afraid, and afterward you may
tell Mr. Alden."
This exchange of pleasantries upon a
cheerful subject occurred during tbe
time wben Kendall wae experimenting
with tbe white mice.
"I must have been pretty near It tbe
last time," said Elsie. "It was double.
I scarcely knew wbat was tbe matter
when it began, even though I'd fainted
such a little while before. It was like
drifting, drifting away. You are surprised. You think you must stop, and
before you really bave time to be
frightened you are gone. But 1 waked
just for a second—just long enough to
remember and realize; then down,
down, down, sideways to the left there,
slipping away from the room and the
light. Tbe lust was a sensation tbat
tbe.v were lowering me Into the ground.
But I'm going to be cremated. You'va
promised me that, Brenda."
Tben, catching the expression of
amused horror — If that can be — on
Brenda's face, she laughed wltb tbe
most delicious and clear sound, like
the singing of birds.
"Oh, but lt hurts to laugh," sbe said.
"You mustn't make me do lt."
"I?" cried Brenda, "You're the flret
tbat ever accused me of being amusing."
"Do you know," said Elsie, "tbat of
the two of us you're the blue one? It's
much more cheerful to talk about
dying *han to 'roast' oneself as you
do."
"Roasting Is popularly supposed to
be one step beyond dying," replied
Brenda. "But I suppose tho roasting
you mean Is tbe saying of uncomplimentary things. My child, I can't help
lt; I suffer by contrast"
"With me?" cried Elsie, "Now you
really are amustng. If I had your hair
and eyes! Well, that's absurd, of
course.   But do you know I He here
Hs cams back with m tumbler.
Imitating your ways, yonr calm, gentle, sweet way of doing things? I'm
studying you, Brenda, and If I were to
play a society part again you'd seel
This Is the way you say: 'Good morning, Ur. Kendall. * ' • Ab, thank you
so much. • • • Sball we see you again
soon? • • • Goodby.' You make all
the little tblngs mean something. That's
dignity, personality. I haven't any more
than a blade of grass, but I'm gaining
on It If I live another week, I shall
die and go to Daniel Frobman's No. 1
company Instead of to heaven. I'd
rather."
"Do I speak like that when I address
Dr. Kendnll?" said Brenda, with a
slight access of color. "Well, It may
be so.   You are very clever, my dear."
"This Is the way you hold your
arms when you walk," said Elsie.
"Isn't thnt pretty? Of course I can't
do It very well lying down, but see the
fingers und the ease of tho wrist.
Were you taught to do that?"
"I used to havo a governess who wns
crazy on Delsarte," replied Uremia.
"But she presently went crazy on all
other subjects nlso, and we had to send
the poor thing to au Institution. I was
not uware of my debt to her."
"You owe her a great deal," said Elsie. "I wish I'd had a lunatic of that
kind In my family. I couldn't afford to
bave much teaching. Of course I had
some, but when I fouud what my
mother was enduring In ordor tn psy
for lt—well, I took au engagement wltb
the first tiling thnt came along. Antl It
was a barnstorming crew! We gave
six pin;, s a week, and I had to learn a
long part In every one of tbem.   Tbe
second Monday, in ihe afternoon, tho
leading lady came Into my room and
found me huddled up on tho floor ln
the corner gibbering—Just gibbering,
that was all—words out of all the
plays, as ahe told me afterward, all
Jumbled together, and I was cross eyed
with sitting up all night studying under little flickering gas Jets. Yes, tbat's
tbe way sbe found me, and the room
was as cold aa a barn too. I had tho
bed quilt wrapped around my shoulders and my arm through a bole In It
"The leading lady yelled to the Juvenile man, and be really was juvenile
—about 18, as I remember. She said,
'Go get a glass of brandy P The Juvenile man went down to tbe bar and
came back wltb a tumbler solid fulL
He bad to carry It carefully ln order to
keep from spilling any. Tbe leading
lady was a temperance woman. Sbe
never touched a drop of wine, and, ln
fact, sho was a regular straltlaced
New England pilgrim, but somebody
bad told her once tbat brandy was
good for the thing tbat I bad—'white
brain,' we call It The Juvenile man
didn't know bow much brandy a person ought to take, and I—well, I didn't
know anything. So I drank It all, and
then I lay down on the bed, and tbe
leading lady covered me wltb everything she could And, and pretty soon
tbe bed got up and stood on tbe celling,
and I didn't care at all
"Wben It came time to go to tbe theater (Brenda, It's disgraceful, but I
was so—so drunk that I couldn't walk
straight) tbe leading lady got me up
and told tbe Juvenile man to walk me
around the block, and bo walked me
around about fifty times tn tbe snow.
We were In a little Minnesota town,
aad It bad snowed for a week. When
he took me to tbe theater, I was perfectly sober, and I didn't care for anything. I had no troubles whatever. I
walked up to tbe stage manager, and I
said cheerfully, 'Well, what do we play
tonight?' He told me, and I couldn't
remember ever to nave beard of lt, but
I got out my part and studied It while
I was making up.
"When I went en, I knew about half
of my first scene, which was the longest ono I bad In the pluy. But I didu't
care. I'd always been troubled with
stage fright more or less, but not tbis
time— not a fright When I forgot, 1
waited calmly for the prompter, who
wts off left, having a fit. By and by 1
bad to go across right and sit down by
a table. I know I couldn't hear the
prompter there, so I walked over and
got the table and dragged It clear across
the stage, and tbe audience applauded
because I did It so naturally.
"Then I went craxy, aud what hi:*p-
pened afterward I scarcely know. But
when 1 came off after the thrilling 'limn x of the scene I fell Into the leading lady's arms, and she hugged me up
tight. Sho said: 'You never played so
well as that before. You were like
Julia Marlowe.' And she kissed me on
both cheeks. Julia Marlowe was my
Idol then, and I cried with heavenly
Joy on the leading lady's neck. That's
all true, Just sb It happened, Brenda,
and I never bad stage fright afterward."
"Poor little Elsie!" said Brenda, kissing her. "It was a hard school where
you were taught"
"It was," said Elsie. "Yet I tblnk I
wouldn't have amounted to much anyway. How could any mortal man fall
to see tbe difference betweon you and
ine?"
"Uy child," said Brenda. "no man
ean. Why, tbe brass knobs on the
posts of this bed know tbe difference between yon and me—tbe vital, essential
difference. They love you In their little brass hearts. Everybody loves yon.
Dr. Kendall, for a cold blooded sawyer
ef bones wbo could uniputnte my head
witbout a trace of emotion, takes your
band wltb the eternal reverence of
man for woman, and wben be gives
you pain 1 can see his own heart
shrink. But be treats mo as If I were
a gentleman whom be bad met at tbe
club."
Elsie opened ber eyes so wide tbat
tbey seemed to light the room as she
stared at Brenda, whose cheeks were
flushed by ber unusual earnestness.
"I am glad to bear you speak like
tbat" sbe said.
Brenda rose and walked across to
the window. Tben she returned to the
bed and took Elsie's hand.
"I am going to open ray heart to
you," sbe said. "It waa not because
Clareuce Alden preferred you to me
tbat 1 lost my self control thnt Inst
day. I cared nothing for you, despised
you; I admitted no comparison. It
waa because, though the Intensity of
bla own nature for a time deceived
blm, he never really lovod nie at all.
Nobody ever loved me. I am called
good looking, even a beauty, in the
society columns of tbe papers, and I
am ae rlcb tbat I have attracted many
men. But not one of them was able to
present even a creditable counterfeit
•f love (though some of them could
counterfeit almost auytblng else, from
goed breeding to tbe national currency) until Mr. Alden entored the
lists. That'* hardly fair to tilui; he
was sincere, but mistaken."
"Yet 1 didn't hove at all the feeling
that I have now," she coutlnued. "It
was only that last day that I became
enraged, mostly at myself. It Is since
I have come here, since I have known
you, the most womanly of Usui's creatures, that I have bad sotim true com-
prehension ef my own lack, some honest serrow for It"
"Only since you have been bere,"
■aid Elsie. "How remarkable! But,
Brenda, It Is sweet of you to talk this
way to me, and I nm so glad, so very
gladl How long have you known Dr.
Kendall?"

OR. CHASE'S KIDNEY LIVER PILLS.
The old people especially appreciate
the effectiveness of Dr. Chase's Kid-
ney-Llver PUIS, because the kidneys
are usually tin* first of thc bodily organs to give out, and the result Is
backache, lumbago, pains In the side
and limbs, urinary dlsoreds nnd consumption.
Old people learn to trust ln Dr.
Chase's Kldney-Llver Pills, for when
all other treatments fall this great
medicine seems to go directly to the
diseased part, and promptly afford:?
relief and  cure.
Mr. David Mlsener, farmer, an old
and respected resident of Fort Kob-
Inson, Welland county, Ont., writes:
"I wish to state to you that 1 hnd
pain ln my back and left side for
over twenty yeurs.     At times I could

The sympathy existing between this
moths r and son is one of the most beautiful traits iu Oliver's personal history
They loved each other with a passionate
affection that no time or change lessened, and when he arrived at tho summit
of hi* power, though sho was then upward of 90 years of age, he appointed
hiv rnyal apartments in Whitehall ami
visited her every day
Noble srjnaintly says, "She occasionally yet offered the Protector advice.
which he always heard with great at-
tention, but acted as he judged prhper.'
It is pleasant to think that this line old
lady died happily before her son's power
began to wane. It i.s pleasant to think
of tho great Protector kneeling to receive her dying blessing nud of her last
smiling words to him and his children
"A good night, dears!"
There is yet a portrait of her at

Like the modern cowlmy yell of the
western troops in the Ctfban campaign
the warcries anal slogans of the ancient
Irish clans often had mnch effect in in
spiring fear in the enemy and courage
nnd enthusiasm in tho command The
simplest and umst frequent of old Erin's
warcries was "Faire, faire I" signify ing
"watch" or "look out." It was a precautionary signal and was commonly
written "Farrah. ' From it tbe modern
"hnrrab" is supposed to have been derived. Another cry was "A huaidhl"
which mennt "to tho victory. " It was
pronounced "ahoo" and followed thc
name of the clan or leader, according
to circumstances, liko "O'Neill alujo,"
or "Claim Conail ahoo." Frequently
"a buaidh" is coustrned Incorrectly in
modern English to mean "forever."
That translation applies to "go brntb,"
bnt not "a buaidh." The famous Irish
cry of "Fag un bealachl" meaning
"clear tho way," scared the spunk oot
of the French soldiery iu tho peninsular
war.
A aeneroar- Whlra.
The London Daily Mail tells this
pretty story of a kisa sold at auction
A fascinating actrs^s, whose name need
not be mentioned, beiug anxious to assist a certain charity in thu provinces,
offered a kiss to he put up at auction.
The bidding was brisk and had advanced
in three leaps from a guineas to SO,
wben without further parley the round
sum of a€800 was olTored. There being
no higher bid, tlie kiss was knocked
down by tbo auctioneer to a colonel in
one of onr line regiments, who came
forward to meet the blushing lady.
Bnt to the surprise of all present, the
colonel introduced a dear little fair
haired boy, explained that it was bis
grandson's fifth birthday, and that he
had acquired the kiss as a birthday gift
for  him.    Whereupon   Miss   took
the child in her arms nn.l discharged
her debt with interest. Tho charity, a
local one. in whish tho colonel took a
keen interest, was the richer by HtfOO
for thu granddad's generons whim.

THE WAY TO 3E WELL.
The Blood Must   Be Kept    Rich and
Pure and the Nerves Strong.
Good health ls the most precious
treasure any man or woman can have.
But good health can only be had by
kepeing the blood rich and puie, and
the nerves strong. If the blood Is allowed to become weak and watery,
the whole system Is weakened and
falsi an easy prey to disease. There
is no medicine can esiual Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills in keeping the blood rich
and pure, nnd the nerves vigorous and
strong. Every dose helps to create
new Mood, and by a fair use ot the
pills, pale, sickly people are made
bright, active and strong. Here is
proof. Mr. Robert Lee, New Westminster, Bs <"., says : "Before 1 began
using' Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, my
blood was in a very Impure state, and
as n result pimples that were very
Itchy, broke out all over my body.
My appetite was fickle, and I was easily tired. My wife urged me to try
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and I got
half a dii/.eii boxes. By the time I
had used tbem I wao completely restored to health, my skin was smooth
•ind  clear, and my appetite good."
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills do not
purge—tliey simply make pure, rich
blood. That Is why they cure such
tr..ul.l! s as Indigestion, neuralgia,
rheumatism, anaemia, partial paralysis, St. Vilas dance, scrofula, erysipelas, and the aliments so common to
women, young and old. Sold by all
dealers or sent postpaid, at a*i0 cents

A H:\tls nt Tinifa.
To take a b.ith nt Tlilis is to court
a   wonderful   experience.    Abundant
springs of water, strongly Impregnated
with BUlphureted hydrogen, supply the
building, and iu its vaulted chambers,
far below the street, there ls no sound
out the splash of the fountain and the
rolling echo of one's owu voice. Henry
Norman  gives  a  description of  the
masseur who presides over the bath
I and makes Its most eccentric feature.
|    "He is a Persian, who speaks but a
! word or two of Russian.   His head ls
shaved,  a  rag  is twisted   round  his
waist, and his feet nre dyed orange.
I     "Kirsl lie rubs you, and then suddenly, ns you lie face downward on the
' marble slab, he Is upon your back, his
I feet dug Into your spine, bis bunds
I grasping your  shoulders,  to  Increase
I the pressure.   Slowly, with skillful np-
| preciation  of every  muscle, his feet
| grind up nnd down your back.   They
| encircle your neck.  They are on your
| heud.
"Then he vaults lightly off, and ln a
j moment from a linen bag filled with
j soap he has squeezed clouds of per-
j fumed bubbles, and you are hidden ln
| theni from head to foot ua completely
as if you had fallen Into a snowdrift
You  are  not absolutely  bruised,  but
you are clean."

months he wus constantly 111, and was
wasted away to a skeleton. I gave
him a great many medicines, but alun ys without result, until I heard of
Daby'S Qwn Tablets and began giving

Sweetness Tbat  Uever  rails.
During a sleepless nlgbt thc Vizier
Mujjeduddln Kumija dispatched his
slave, Dedruddin Ejus, to bring bim
sweets. The slave procured a copper
kettle heaped with many kinds of
fruits and sweets, and Mujjeduddln began to eat
"You relish them, my master?" asked
tbe slave.
The vizier shrugged his shoulders.
"These fruits are sweet—for the moment," he said, "but show me a fruit
the sweetness of which will endure
even unto the judgment day."
"Such fruits there are, my master,"
cried the slave and hastened toward
tbe Mesched Husa, where be awoke
tlie starving orphans in tbe bouse ot
Aliwln and led them forth ond into the
room of his master. Overjoyed, the
famished children devoured tbe fruits.
"Lrook, oh, my master," said tbe
slave. Here you see fruits tbe sweetness of which endures unto the judgment day."-
Nlchilet, Que., June 8.—(Special) —
Of the many poodle in this neighborhood who have been brought back to
health and strength through the use
of Dodd's Kidney l'ills few are In better position to give the public lhe
benefit of their experience than Joseph
Hams'.. He knows both sides of tlie
question—the suffering and the relief.
"I suffered from Kidney Disease for
throe or four years," says r. Hamel.
"For two years I would take two or
three days off work a week. I was
continually sick and forced to walk
like an old man. I lost all my energy
and became discouraged.
"After trying a lot of medicine that
only gave relief for a while I was fortunate enough to try Dodd's Kidney
Pills Aftar using three boxes I was
completely cured."
Mr. Hamel Is enthusiastic ln his
praises of Dodd's Kidney Pills and
there is not the slightest doubt of tho
correctness of his statement as dozens
of people can testify to his Illness and
cure.

The orlenlul amethyst ls really a violet colored sapphire, which ls an exceedingly rare gem and of brilliant luster. It ls regarded as a sacred stone,
and lt is used to ornament the cross

It is a matter of great satisfaction to
the Conservatives ssf the province to
pee the way in which the various sections of the party are quietly and harmoniously gathering together under
the one common bannor. Dissension
and discord have given place to unanimity and harmony, and all are determined to work together forth i success
of the party at the "jolls. As sueh,
strength is daily being gained, and
the people are placing added confidence in them, How different is the!
situation with the   Mberals,    Torn
with  dissension, racked  by  jealousy.

Slater Shoe Advertising
Selling the first pair
Short talks by the Slater Shoe ud man, No. 2.
Advwtising" may induce a nun ot woman
to fcuy the first pair of "Slater Shoes'* but if that
first pair be a failure no amount of advertisinr.
will induce the disappointed wearer to buy a
second pair.
If every man and woman in Canada bought
a pair of "Slater Shoes" through advertising and
ceased wearing—or buying them after the firs
purchase, the entire Canadian market for "Slater
Shoes" would be exhausted in less than two yrar.-.
Yet the sales of "Slater Shoes" have fjone
on increasing for many years.
The same people have been buying th,-
"Slater Shoe" year after year and .constant
advertising is making new wearers every season
'proving that it is as good a shoe as its
makers claim it to be.
The Slater Shoe
Goodyear welted.   Made in Canada 40 years.
For men $4.00 and $5.50.
l:or women $3.50 and $5.00.
