Terrible Italre-gea Of Casicer---LOP- --, 1.-osy Is Spread Over the VVorld, There is no chemise about which negation' acience knows less than about cancer, and none which is in- • ereasing more rapidly, Whereas in •1850-1860 there Were only 42 deaths in °MY 1,000 fro ra cancer, there were 09 per 1,000 in 1900. Last sear 1,253: people died in London silos° of this awful malady. Cause Paid oure,are equally unknown. SOme doctors argue that aalt is the prime cause of cancer. Savages, they say, who get little salt, are never affected by the disease ; and whereas most domeetic animals suffer from. cancer, the pig, which alone of them does „not get salt in Its food, is never afilicted. Cancer is rare in prisons and workhouses,. where animal food is limited, but very Ofevalent in districts where the peoPle eat large • quantities of bacon, On the Other harid, news has re- eently come from Bombay that the Microbe of cancer has been discover- ed by scientists who have been mak- ing investigations into the disease. This statement quite contradicts the belief held by most physicians that cancer is not ,due to a specific mi- erbbe. As for canoes cures, they are end- less. Professor sLoiller injects mos- quito virus; another doctor believes that eider is a sure CURE AND PREVENTATIVE. X-rays, however, seem to have done more real good than all the other remedies together. When Queen Victoria came to the throne, the famous physician, John Hunter, divided all illnesses to which flesh is heir into three divisions— those which sulphur could cure, those which mercury could cute, and those which nothing could cure. Medical science has made enormous *at strides since that period, but there are still other diseases besides cancer which doctors freely confess they are unable to cope with. No cure, for instanee, has yet been discovered for leprosy ; and, like cancer, leprosy is steadily spreading. It exists in every country in Europe, except Great Britain, Holland, and Denmark. Australia has it, New Zealand, Mexico, all Africa, Japan, China, and the islands of the Pacific. British India has 125,000 lepers, and even the United States has many hundreds of cases. Although the bacillus of leprosy has been recogniz- ed, doctors are still divided as to whether the disease is_ infectious or not. In India LEPERS ARE NOT KEPT separate ; in most other countries they are. As for curea, many have been tried —some of them very curious ; but it is doubtful whether a case of • tubercular leprosy has ever been •6ured. The latest remedies aro the poisons of the cobra and of the rattlesnakes. Dr. de Mama of Sao Paulo, Brazil, is the latest experi- Menter to fight leprosy with snake - venom. •Some years ago a number of the inmates of a lunatic asylum fell ill of a mysterious disease. They be- came drowsy, refused food, and, finally. slept constantly till death ensued. The medical attendants identified the illness as beri-beri, the dreaded sleeping sickness which kills whole villages of natives on the • steamy West Coast of Africa. Beri- beri is another of these diseases which baffle physicians. Cause and cure are alike unknown. The extraordinary vagaries of in- .fluenza, are a standing puzzle to the medical profession. Between 1883 and 1889 the disease was almost un- • known. In that year a mild • FORM OF INFLUENZA , circled the whole world from East to West, and in 1890 returned, and • took a reverse course—from West to East. In 1891 influenza of a, more • severe type seized New Orleans, cov- • ered the United States, reached Eng- land in April, Aayed there all the summer, and then radiated S.E. to Spain and N.E. to Russia. •It never reached Asia or Africa, but in December came back, and carefully covered again all the • ground it had already been over. It is not known. why the journeys of this disease should be so eccentric, nor why it should be so much more severe in type in some years than ii., others. Other smaller puzzles con- • nected with influenza are why Jew» • almost entirely escape its ravages, and why artisans working in high temperatures should be also exempt. Can a human being be infected with • consumption from a cow or other animal ? This is a questios which has been debated by experts all over the world during the past year or two. Dr. Koch, the great German expert, thinks not ; most of the British schools of medicine do not agree with him. As for consumption cures, their variety is endless ; but NO SPECIFIC IS KNOWN. DS. Hoff succeeded incuring several Mild cases with a medicine composed of arsenious acid, carbonate of pot - ah, chmanyllic acid, and °plena Another physician has performed somo remarkable cures with injeca Cops of ,fcamic acid. which seeme to' sterilize the poison that. is destroy-, hag the lungs. Rut it appears pro- ' liable that prevention, rather than • cure, must be the aim of science in the case of this disease. •" The earth-eating disease, which • has recently brokenout afresh in North Queensland, is a most nays- terioes malady. Numbers of people— prihcipally children—have developed an abnormal appetite for a kind of clay found on the river banks. Once the habit is formed, the fate of the •earth -eater is sealed. The com- • plexion becoxues yellow, appetite for ordinary food disappears, the pc - tint Wastes away, and dies, It is • not only in Australia, that the dis- enSe is known.

HEART TROUBLE. 'HE SYMPTOMS OFTEN NIS, ummatwroop BY SUFFERER.. ••••••••10 rue Trouble at All Times an EV- trentely Dangerous One—How to Promptly Relieve It., There are many forms of heart dis•• ease, some of which manifest thein. solves.by symptoms which are misun- derstood by the sufferer and asocrithiseed, to indigestion or some situllar 4 when tho heart is roally affected. The slightest derangement of this import- ant organ is extremely dangerous, If at times the action of the pulseis too rapid and tho heart beats vio- lently, resulting in a suffocating feel- ing, or, if the heart seems inclined to stop beating, the pulse becomes slow and you, feel a faint, dizzy sensation, you should take the beet course in the world, and that is to take Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. You Will find that the distressing symptoms promptly •disappear and that the heart at all times acts normally. Mr, Adelard Lavoie, St. Pacome, Que., bears strong testi- mony to the value Of these pills in cases of heart trouble. • He says: "For nearly three years I was great- ly troubled with`a weak, heart and in constant fear that my end would come at any time. I opl'aced myself • under a good doctor but did not get the desired • relief. In fact I grew Worse; tho least exertion would over- come me, and finally I had to dis- continue work. While in this condi- tion a neighbor advised me to try De. Williams' Pink Pills and 1 pro- • cured a supply, They simply worked wonders in my case and when I had used six boxes I was Again enjoying good health. I have had no sign of the trouble since and I can cheerfully recommend the pills to similar suf- ferers." Blood troubles of all kinds are also cured by these famous pills. If you suffer from headaches, dizziness, lan- guor, boils or skin diseases of any kind, your blood is in an impure con- dition, and Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are what you need. These pills are not a purgative and therefore do not weaken like medicines of that class, They are tonic in their nature and make new, rich, red blood with every close, thus restoring health and strength to hopeless and despondent sufferers. But you must get the gen- uine, which always has the full name "Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People," on every box.

Very Hard on the Nerves' of the Soldiers. To -day a man ma3r die as soon as the enemy's long guns, hidden away in the distant cloud -topped moun- tains • seven miles away„ begin to talk. And over that seven miles he must walk with caution, with a Wide interval between him and his pals on either hand; he must lie down at every short halt and scratch the ground hurriedly with his little spade at every long one, for the great shells are sailing toward him, and he sees by his officer's eye and hears by his commands that it is considered that he may perish at any moment, and that precautions aro necessary to preserve him. He sees, moreover, how futile those pre- cautions must be if one of those monsters howling overhead should land as near to him as the last one did to that blasted tree, for in- stance, with its scorched, dangling limbs and the huge charred fissure in its stout trunk, or as the one be- fore did to the team of mules in the ambulance waggon, now a scream- ing, struggling jumble of harness and bloody flesh. All this is dispiriting and appears unnecessary. The country on all sides is as peaceful as his native dale, not a sign of an enemy. Even the great blue hill ahead, on which he is told the enemy's long guns are posted, looks as quiet as the ramm- tain on a Christmas card. Yet for two miles he walks through death, thinking only of it because there is fie -thing else to think of, and then, as twilight falls, bivouacs in extended line, sees his friends run for their tea between the fall of the shells, notices one Of them time his run back badly and meet a projectile in lul career; to part from it an awful and disgusting offence, and then lies down in the darkness with shaking nerves and the thought that five Worse miles still intervene between him aud the guns be knows he is in- tended to take. Next morning he is awakened by a shell, is marched with infinite cau- tion for two more miles, shelled the whole way, is shelled even in his bi- vouac by the light of the moon, and as he watches the projectiles burst- ing like waterspouts of fire along his hillside- is glad when he is told that to -morrow will be the battle, after which if lie Wins and Wile lives, he may be able to walk and sleep in petite for a space. • LOCOMOTIVE WHISTLES.

MILK RECORDS, Dominion Live Steak. Commis. stoner Give e Some Valuable Hints. • As a Meansof converting the raW product)) of the farm into .ntore saleable forms, the good dairycow is without a peer. The good beefing animal will pay very little .more than saarket priPea forfood led from bitth to shambles, The sheep, with her fleece and her lambs gives .only very modest profit on feed eonstime ed. The pigand the hen, if wisely fed, do inuch better than either : of the above, but it is very seidem that .the returns • from either of them go beyond one dollar and fifty cents for one dollar's worth of food conSmaed. The dairy cow, however, frequently goes as high as two dollars worth of product for cine.dollar's worth of food,- and many a cow has been known to give two dollars and fifty cents worth of product for ono dol- lar's worth of food consumed. Most herds fall far short of such a high return. The reasons may be sem- inar:lied as lack of breeding, im- proper or insufficient feeding, and lack of judgment and management. • EVERY DAIRY HERD. should average over fifty dollars' worth of products per cow per year.. If your herd is not giving you such a return you are not doing it jus- tice. Possibly, every individual in the herd is not a number one dairy cow, but do you know which aro really doing good work and the re- lative merits of the different eon's ? In order to know your cows you • must keep a daily record of the milk yielded by each cow. We would like to see you do this. We are willing to help you do it. During the past year a number of dairy farmers, at our suggestion, made an effort along this :line. • The results were most satisfactory. In our possession are many farmer's letters, emphasizing the iraportance and value of such records, both as a guide in selecting cows and as an effective means of directly improving the actual herd. The extra, outlay required is very small. We would .supply you with record forms for a time at least. The keeping of such records takes about one-half minute per cow per day. The, outlay for a balance would be from fifty cents to five dollars. The increased flow of milk due to keeping suck a record where ten cows are kept would pay for the balance of the week. Keeping milk- ing records induces a spirit of in- terest and competition among milk- ers, and, in the mind of"the milker, among the cows milked by the same milker. Rapid, clean, and careful Milking will raise the average re- turn from a cow by from two to ten per cent. according to the cow—the better the cow the greater the in- ereaSe. IF YOU EVER SELL COWS the ability to give an accurate mulk record will, generally speaking,: raise a sew's value, and facilitate the sale. Especially is this true if she is a pure bred. Further, know- ing the returns from eachcow in any herd, you are in a position . to easily select for breeding, besides, in almost every herd are found "board- ers"—cows that pay a very low price for their food, leave no pro- fit, andfrequently are kept at a loss. They should be detected and fed offfor beef. Keeping a milk re- cord is a sure way to discover them. To the breeder of pure bred stock of any of the milking breeds, Jersey, Guernsey, Ayrshire:, Canadian, or milking Shorthorn strains, the daily milk record should be quite as im- portant as the breeding record. We venture the assumption that in a very few years,. every breed putting forward any claims as a dairy breed, will be making a specialty of milk records. The reasons are obvious. Beauty of slyle, color, and conformation are very important, and where -Cho breeder makes his money in some other line than farming, he may be able to keep animals for their looks alone. We, who are farming for mo- tley, must look to the profit side of uteivything. With us, "Handsome is as hail:Isom° does." THE 1.1.0TaSTEIN MEN. have made' a movement in the right direction with their advance° 3legio- try ; the Guernsey breeders are working along similar lines. It would seem to be a good thing for some breeds, and we are siu•e it would be the most important step e for improvement that yoo ever ma do you decide to introduce it. Let us urge upon you, therefore, the advisability of keeping Suck a record. We would be most happy to send you forms for keeping the • daily record, as well as forms where- on to' make a summary to be kept for reference. When you write for the forms, please state the number of cows kept and address all letters to "J. H. Grisdale, Agriculturist, Experimental Farm, Ottawa, Ont." Letters so addressed come post free. F.

She Will Have Post of Honor at Coronation. The honor . of walking next to royalty at the British coronation ceremonies belongs to the Duchess of Sutherland, one of the handsomest and, most talented women of Eng- land. She will hold that distin- guished rank because of the fact that the Duke of Norfolk, the hero - diary master of ceremonies, is a widower, having lost his wife several years ago, The Duchess of Sutherland is not of English birth. She comes from the land of the heather and carries a soft burr in the turn of ber tongue, which is no manner of de- traction from her many charms. She Wa,S Susan :Margaret McKiimon, the daughter of Charles McKinnon, be- fore she assumed a coronet, and one of the richest heiresses in the Brit- ish Isles. The duke is a landed proprietor who counts his acres by the thous- ands. By actual count he is lord of 25,400, his estates being among the most splendid in the country. He is now in his fifty-sixth year. The duchess is the most democratic in the whole Seymour (or St. Maur, as it was formerly written), connec- tion. She has a most winning and affable nature, is gracious without, condescension and possessed of a broad charity that argues.an optim- istic view of the world. Fashionable society has at no thaw had great at- traction for her, and it is a humor- ous irony that the proudest distinc- tion of the forthcoming crowning of the sovereign should fall to the wo- man who least desires it. Outdoor sport has at all times been her favorite recreation. She was awheel long before the bicycle became the fad of the smart set. She is also an excellent shot, and has been her husband's comrade in many an expedition for big game. The duchess lasts, as well, no mean reputation as a litterateur, Her name is familiar as a magazine con- tributor, and her account of the beautiful Dart, known locally as "The British Rhine," is accounted the best description of thnt silver stream. The Duchess, should the priority of rank be strictly followed, will have for her immediate associates as at- tendants on her Majesty the Duchess of Beaufort, the Duchess of St. M- oans and the Duchess of Leeds. While it has been definitely an- aounced that Queen Alexandra will have a quartet of duchesses in her train. there was a minor (the wish 111 some quarters )oubtless mother ing the thought) that she. wouja choose the lour youngest or most beautiful. This would bring the American duchess of Marlborough into the coveted position with the Duchesses of Sutherland, Westmins- ter a.nd NewcastIP. +- THE PALM AS A PASSPORT.

BABY CONSTIPATION. Can Be Cured Without Resorting to Harsh Purgatives. Constipation is a very common trouble among infants and small children—it is also one of the most distressing: The cause is some de- rangement of the digestive. organs, and if not promptly treated is liable to lead to serious results. The little victim suffers from headache, fever, pain in the stomach and sometimes vomiting. While in this condition neither baby nor baby's mother can obtain restful sleep. lf proper caro is taken in feeding the Child and Baby's Own Tablets are ueed, there will be no trouble found in curing and keeping baby free from this dis- order. Mrs. T. Guymer, London, Ont., says :—"My baby was. a, great sufferer' •from constipation. Sho cried continually, and I was about worn out attending her.

H. Belyea, post- master of this place, has made a very interesting statement of his experience in his efforts to be cured of Kidney Trouble which has bother - ad bim for many years. At times he would have very bad spells, and when these carne on he was almost laid up. He tried several doctors and used many medicines, but nothing seemed to help him, in the least. Plasters, oils, liniments on the outside and doses of all kinds and descriptions taken internally seem to have but one result. He was no better. Finally through reading an adver- tisement he was led to the use of Dodd's Kidney Pills. He says : "Dodd's Kidney Pills were so highly recommended for Kidney Trouble that after reading some testimonials, I concluded to try them according to directions. "I had tried so many things that I was very skeptical and lia.d biat tittle faith that Dodd's Kidney Pills could or would help me. However, I did not use them long before I Found that they were all and more than was claimed for them. "I ba,ve received more benefit from them than from any other medicine I have ever used, for they seem to have made a complete cure of my case. "I feel as well as ever I did and have not the slightest trace of the Kidney Trouble that bothered me ever so long. "I want to say that I believe that Dodd's Kidney Pills are the right medicine for Kidne3 Trouble." Mr. Belyea is very well known to everybody in this neighborhood and there aro but few who have not been aware of his serious illness.
