Among the Many who have found benefit through the use of Dr. Williams,' Pink Pills is Ms. Albert W. Smith, Miseenehe, P331., who says —'I was very much broken down in health, had pains' in the region of my heart, and wee so short of, breath that if I went upstairs I would have to lie clown as' soon as I reached the top, Then a strange nervous twitch- ing of the muscles took poseeseio'n of me, and every niesele in my body would apparently be twitching. I be- came very emaciated, and my family' were much alarmed as to, my condi- , ton. At this time I -read an article in t our home paper concerning Dr. Wil - llama' Pink Pills and decided to give 0- k there a trial. The reedit was that in a short time I felt much improved, . ena under further tee of the pills I felt like a new woman, had gained in weight and was in every way better. I e-ould urge anyone afflicted as I was to give Dr, Pink Pills a 1 trial," You can get tb,ese pills through any medicine dealer or by mail at 50 cents a box, or six boxes for:$2,50, from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brock- ville, Ont, Canadian Visitors to the t - National Parks. / The: eAent to which Canadians thenaselved are making use of the Canadian .National Parks is shown by the registrations of the past month at Banff. During July, 1,517 licen,se^ were • sued to ears ente,ring the National Park. The highest Previous- record was in July, 1921, when 1,084'l1censes were issued. The week enclin.g July 31 broke the weekly record with 502 licenses'exceeding the previotis high- est week by ever 100 cars, T1CO' Super- intendent reports that on July 1 and 2 there were 1,956 bathers in the Gov- ernment bath's at the Crve and Basin Hot Sulphur Springs. The previous week -end record was 965 or leas than one-half th.e total for this year. The total _number of bathers attiring the week ending July,30 was .2,116. The great majority of these visitors are niotorists' from the Prairie Provinces, though cars have been noticed from California and the Western States and , even as far east as Michigan and On- tario. The rotator itself IS' fitted with care- offully-adjusted blades Which make it revolve at a known number of revolu- tions per mile. This is attached to a dial on the taffna,i1 of the ship by a line which is not expected 'to kink in arty circumstances, and the- number of revolutions istlins indicated on board. From that'it is quite easy to judge the speed of the ship, but al- lowance has to be made for tide and many other considerations. Buffalo for England. A pair of buffalo from the ;Teat Canadian herd in Buffalo Park, Wain- Narightf., Alberta, will be shipped to Ithagtaid early this fall for the purpose at introducing new blood into the herd In the Zoological G.ardelns at Regent's Park. The shipment will probably go east late this month and will be ac- companied by an attendant who will place the animals on board ship. The only herd of buffalo of any size in England is that owned by the Duke of Bedford at Woburn Park, contain- ing about sixty animals. Buffalo were first introduced into the Old Country in 1891 w'he'n ten full grown -animals were shipped by Colonel C. S. Jones, familiarly known as "Buffalo Jones," from bis own herd at McCook, Ne- braska, to C. J. Leland. Some of these afterwards came into tlie possession of the Duke of Bedford and were added to by purchases from Col. Goodnight and Carl Ilagenback. The shipment, of buffalo from the Canadian herd at Wainwright this fall will be the ,second of its kind to Great Britain. Late in 1913, at the, instance of the late Lord Strathcona, a (lona- of two three-year-old bison was *lie to the Royal Zoological Society of Ireland to he placed in the Dublin Gardens where they have now in- c,reased to five. Loans of buffalo to the Zoological collections in various Canadian cities under a bond guaran- teeing adequate provision for the heft) th ,le d mintenadce of the ani- nrals have also be,on made from time to time.

We "might iit'tegine this ether to be punched, first in one directien by the rapid 'Hight, of current from A to B, and thee: in the apposite direction by thereturn of the, current to A.

Speaking gen- erally, then, the time of one oscilla- tion of current (A to 13 and back to A) in a circuit increases .with the electri- callength 'of the circuit, so if we wish to increase the natural Period, we may do so by adding wire. Now, the fre- quency of an oscillating current is the number -of complete oscillations which ocour per second. Obviously the long- er the wire, , the longer the natural period,iand:the-lower the frequency be- cause the current oscillations- oCcupy More time and there are Consequently fewer per second.
