Therefore, if the 1 bell is made to ring while the blades are being opened to grasp the bullet, AND ERUPTIONS and if the bell continues to ring when the bullet is seized, nothing else can I have been piekedup beside the bullet, and there is no danger in pulling it out. The surgeon using this instrument can therefore not only see what he is do- ing, but, by means of the bell, he hae a very accurate sense of touch for any piece of metal that he is watching the points of his forceps attempting to pick up from among the structure deep down below the skin. The instrument has been used with success in a number of cases, but it is still upon its trial; later on it will no doubt be possible to state whether or not this beautiful theory will stand the test of actual service conditions. It apears to have given good results in experimental work, but the Teal test will be when the instrument comes to be used by others than those who have carried out the investi- gations. THEN PATTI LAUGHED. In the Spring Most People Need a Tonic Medicine. One of the surest signs that the blood is out of order is the pimples, unsightly eruptions and eczema that mile frequently with the change from winter to spring. These prove that the long indoor life of winter has had its effect upon the blood, and that a tonie medieine is needed to put it right. Indeed, there are few people who do not need a tonic at this sea- son. Bad blood does not merely show itself in disfiguring eruptions. To this same condition is due attacks of rheu- matism and lumbago; the sharp stab- bing pains of seiatica and neuralgia; poor appetite and a desire to avoid exertion. You cannot cure these trou- bles by the use of purgative medicines —you need a tonic, and a tonic only, and among all medicines there is none can equal Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for their tonic, life-giving, nerve -restor- ing powers. Every dose of this medi- eme makes new, rich blood which arives out impurities, stimulates every organ and brings a feeling of new • health and energy to weak, tired, ail- ing men, women and children. If you t sorts • - this el' trial and see how quickly it will re- store the appetite, revive drooping pirits, and fill your veins with new, health -giving blood. You can get these Pills from any medicine dealer or by mail at 50 cents a boo or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. NEW YAW TO EXTRACT BULLETS Electric Bell Rings When Bullet is Reached by Instrument. The war has brought into beiug many ingenious pieces of apparatus designed to aid the British surgeon in his difficult work. Some of these instruments are much too complicated to be described in the pages of a lay journal, but there are others the value of which can be appreciated readily by anyone. Among these is the telephone probe, of which a good deal has already been heard, and now a bullet extractor has been introduced with the object of facilitating what is often a tedious and difficult operation. This bullet extractor has necessarily been con- structed to meet definite requirements. In the first place, the operation is per. formed in the dark, the bullet being visible by the shadow thrown by X- rays. In the second place, the bullet must be removed with the least pos- sible danger of injury to important structures. In the third place, the op- eration of removal inust be made as easy as practicable. The first object has been secured by fitting a fluorescent screen to the ap- paratus in such a manner that, if an X-ray tube be placed under the table and the room darkened, the shadow of the bullet and of the points of the forceps will be visible continuously. But the solution of one difficulby in this case raises another—that of the darkened room. Cutting instruments cannot be used unless the surgeon can see what he is doing, and as this in- strument has to work in the dark it is constructed with a blunt point that will work its way down between structures, separating without doing appreciable damage pressing struc- bares aside rather than through them. A very powerful pair of forceps is necesssary to grip and extract a bul- let, and a great deal of damage might be done if something that was not seen, perhaps an artery or a nerve, was picked up along with the bullet Accordingly, the blades of the forceps are attached to an electric bell, which only rings when both the blades are Well Built Is Built To Win— but in building brain and body, often the daily diet lacks certain essential mineral elements.

He and His Wife, After Years of Doc- toring, Found Quicic Relief and Per- manent Cure in Dodd's Kidney Pills. Caporal Junction, Ont., April 24th.— (Special.)—Bordering on the miracu- lous is the euro of Mr. A. Sawyer, of this place. For ten years he was an invalid. Five doctors failed to help him. When he was a complete wreck, and unable to walk across his room, he decided to try Dodd's Kidney Pills. Six boxes of thein made him like a new man. "Yes, I suffered for ten years," Mr. Sawyer said in speaking of his cure. "The doctors, of whom I tried five ale together, couldn't give me any per -1 manent relief. Some said I had rheu- ; matism, others called it lumbago, but I got steadily worse. "I must say I was a complete 'wreck when I started to take Dodd's Kidney; Pills. They made a new man of me. "My wife get the same good re- sults from them. It was after trying several doctors and a specialist from 1 Sault Ste. Marie, who advised her to stay in bed a month, that she decided bo try Dodd's Kidney Pills. She took a dozen boxes in all with splendid re- sults. We both praise Dodd's Kidney Pills. No one can speak too highly of them." Dodd's Kidney Pills have a record of over a quarter of a century in Can- ada, during which time they have earned undying praise in all parts of the Dominion.

The London Telegraph's Rome cor- respondent says that, according to in- direct information from Berlin, Dr. Liebknecht disclosed a fact of consid- erable gravity during the sitting of the Reichestag on April 8 regarding the latest German loan. The President, Ministers and Deputies alike made the most determined efforts to prevent Dr. Liebknecht from speaking, and the censorship prevented the newspapers from publishing anything about it. Persons in Germany do not know, or know only imperfectly, what Dr. Liebknecht said, but great fear pre- vails in Germany that to cover the loan the Government emptied the savings banks and kindred institu- tions. The- ten Milliard loan is a colossal mystification, and Liebknecht would seem to have disclosed thisin the Reichstag in two or three sen- tences heard in the tumult. After the sitting it was made im- possible for Dr. Liebknecht to com- municate with any newspaper. There was a demand for his arrest, but the Government was afreideto take this • step, fearing the indignation of the working classes, whose savings had been commandeered. The conclusion to be drawn from the above is that it will be impossible for Germany to float. any further loan. Echoes of the scandal must '-have reached Austria-Hungary, and will have a prejudicial effect On Aus- tre-Hungarian borroeving. • Her Dress. "1 these cx.pensivelY.
