London physician, a thorough aterialist, says • that while the mposition of the. human body is niter esting, it is at the same time umiliating when one must take in- consideration the fact that it re- presents only a number of common- place commodities that are to be at the grocer's store. "Bah !" his very practical predation- •‘ -you . are really only a few dozen eggs, a pound or two of can - lea and 'ssevera]gallons of water. A man weighing 160 pounds is '. among ether things only about 83 dozen fresh eggs. Almost every part of man has its equivalent in the everyday hotisehold supplies that come from the grocer, such as su ar, `.,salt, •eggs, : candles, soap, eh heads and starch, '. In his y there is sufficient proteid and er substances of which eggs are 1posed to furnish forth a, mar- , ,stand. The fat in the human ly would make several pounds of dies of rather superior quality. rery tramp carries soap enough in Ls body to wash himself clean if to cared to do so and could get the `soap -making material together." London streetswere first lighted itkt oil -lamps in 1681. NERVOUS BREAKDOWN Usually' Due to Overwork aid Worry—A Tanio in boded Overwork and leery give rise to nervoueness, sleeplessness, head- aches, lack of ambition and lack of interest in your work, weak back, indigestion and sometimes a com- plete breakdown of the nervous system. On every hand you find victims of this kind and often they do ;not' know what to do for thenl.- aelves, Ifthese are your symp- toms you need a tonic, and the only way.: to tone up the nerves is through the blood. Dr. Williams' Pink, Pills, are a direct nerve tonic because they enrich and build up the blood, anti it .is through the blood that the nerves are fed. Under their tonic influence nerv- ousness, with all its attendant evils, . disappear, and the worried sufferer again enjoys health and strength. Proof of the value of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills in nerv- ous troubles is given by Mrs. Lara Scheving, Lundar, Man., who says "I was attacked with nerv- ous trouble which almost drove me to distraction. It would be almost impossible for words to describe my condition. The least thilig would startle me and leave me trembling for an hour. I had nervous head- aches, and slept very badly at nights, some nights not at all. My appetite grew poor, and I was real- ly aphysical wreck. I had been to several doctors and had taken many different medicines, but with- out any benefit. Then I' read of a ease similar cured by the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and I sent for a dozen boxes, fully believ- ing it would take at least that many to eure me. You can judge of niy gratitude, however, when I found that after using only half a dozen boxes I was again enjoying the best of health, and have since remained well and strong. I used the remainder of the pills among my children when they seemed out of sorts, and have found them at all times to be the very best of family medicines." You can get Dr. Williams' Pink Pills through any dealer in medi- cine or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brookville, Ont, WORDS BABY USES. Number Which They Memorize Is Remarkable. Flow many words does .the ordi- nary child know ? Fifty? Wrong. A hundred? . Wrong again. Five hundred, for a wild guess? A little nearer, but not much. The truth is that people underestimate the num- ber of wordstheir children can speak. Take of paper and pencil, follow the child for several days, several weeks, butting down every new word that is uttered. You'll find out some ,things that will surprise you.' And when the word "child" is used+, it does not refer to a boy or girl of seven or eight, but of one -of three. An investigation recently made by following a child at that age and noting every word that was used, showed that it had memorized 1,771 different words.. They covered practically everything with which the child came in contact, and were words the child had never heard be- fore. Another investigation of words used by children between sixteen months and nineteen months old showed that the lowest vocabulary' that was reported included the use A Trial Treatment - ®f ,Cuticura Soap and Ointment Free to Skin Sufferers If you, or someone dear to you, are suffering the itch- ing, burning, sleep -destroy- ing torments of eczema or other cruel. skin eruption, with its embarrassing, un- sightly disfigurement; if you have ' tried all manner of treatment, no matter how harsh, to no avail, and have all but given up hope of cure, write to -day for a lib- eral sample of Cuticura Soap and Ointment. Thousands of skin -tortured sufferers, from infancy to age, have found that the first warm bath with Cuticura Soap and gentle application of Cuticura Ointment bring instant relief, permit rest and sleep, and prove the first steps in a speedy and successful treatanent..

Unlike the majority of the aris- tocracy, the .Duke of Norfolk pays practically no regard to personal appearance, and his general air of shabbiness has led to many cur-- ous mistakes. When he attended Mr. Gfladstone's funeral at West- minster Abbey he was mistaken for a verger. On another ocoasion he entered a small shop at Ports- mouth, when the shopkeeper, who had advertised for an assistant, mistook him for an applicant fo-r the job, and greeted him with the announcement: "Too late, nay man ;. the post is filled." To crown all, he .was once taken for a beggar. The occasion was a distribution of prizes at a big con- vent, and he was to be the central Duke of Norfolk. figure. As the time for the cere- mony drew near a shabby individu- al was seen squeezing his way through the crowd, when he was stopped by a sister, who said : "My good man, we don't distribute re- lief here. You must go round to the back door." "No ; but you do prizes," was the Duke's response. THIRTEEN YEARS. Unlucky Number for Dakota Wonsan. The question whether the num- ber "13" is really more unlucky than any other number has never been entirely settled. A So. Dakota woman, after thir- teen years of misery. from drinking coffee, found a way to break the "unlucky spell." Tea is just as in- jurious as coffee because it contains, caffeine, the drug in coffee. She writes : "For thirteen years I have been e nervous wreck from drinking cof- fee. My liver, stomach, hurt—in fact, my whole system being actu- ally poisoned by it. "Last year I was confined to my bed for six months. Finally it dawned on ine that coffee caused the trouble. Then I began using Postum instead of coffee, but with little faith, as my mind was in such a condition that I hardly knew what to do next. "Extreme nervousness and fail- ing eyesight caused me to lose all .courage. In about two weeks after I quit coffee and began to use Pos- tum, I was able to read and my head felt clear. I am improving all the time and I will be a strong, well woman yet. "I have fooled more than one person with a delicious cup of Pos- tum. Mrs.' S. wanted to know where I bought my fine coffee. I told her my grocer had it and when she found out it was Postum she has used it ever: since, and her nerves are building up fine. "My brain is strong, my nerves steady, My appetite good, and best of all, I enjoy such sound, pleasant sleep." Name given by Canadian Postum Co., Windsor, Ont.

"the duties of a soldier,'' and he thought it was time to see show much they had understood of his discourse. Casting his eyes round the room, he fixed on, Private Murphy as his first victim. ° "Private Murphy," he asked, "why should a. soldier be ready to die forhis country?" Private Murphy scratched his head for a moment, and then a smile of enlightenment crossed his face. "Sure, captain," he. said plea- santly, "you're quite right.

As the front doer closed upon her departing caller, Betty Arnold marched into the library with Iifted chin and heightened color, and ad- dressed her cousin Sally. "Sometimes,' ,she declared, "I think I'll never speak to Helen Lindsay again as long as I live. It's all very well for you to sing her praises, but I noticed that you slipped past the door all the same." "But I didn't know who was there!" Sally exclaimed. "The twins came in with me, and they were both chattering so that I could hardly have heard a locomotive if it had whistled in my ear. Of course I'd have to come in if I had known it was Helen. I'm sure I can't understand why you dislike her so." "Can't you ?" Betty retorted. "Then I'll explain why. It's be- cause she's so unendurably proper and immaculate and tailor-made. She never comes near me without finding some of my buttons loose or my hair stringing or something. Of course, she doesn't speak of such things, but "I can feel her seeing them all the same. I guess if she had three younger sisters to wear her clothes and rumple her up, and rush her from one excitement to another, she'd have buttons loose and hair flying sometimes! If I could see her only once really dis- heveled l But not she. I don't be- lieve she'd look mussed -up even in an earthquake! She says it's a lady's duty always to look like a lady." Perhaps Fate overheard Betty and chanced tobe in a, tricksy mood; at any rate, the next day something happened. The bell rang in the middle of the morning, and Olga reported that Miss - Lindsay wanted to see Miss Arnold just a moment. Wondering, but hardly welcoming, Betty went down -stairs. Helen was standing in the hall, im- maculate and tailor-made as ever, but with a leek half -distressed, half -merry, in her eyes. "It's a 'shame to bring you down at such an hour," she apologized, "but I am in trouble, and you were the nearest friend. Look!' She thrust out one , trim little shoe; across the instep the silk stocking showed, not a hole, but a yawning 'chasm. "They are brand-new—I never wore them before!" she cried. "1 suppose there was some flaw in the silk. I was feeling so comfortable and all right, when I happened to look down and saw that—Betty Ar- nold, if you don't look delighted !" "I am!" Betty cried gleefully. "I always knew I should love you if only once you'd have a mishap, like anybody else. Come up to my room —straightl" For a moment Helen stared, be- wildered; then suddenly she, too, began to laugh, and hand in -hand they ran up -stairs. NOT A GOOD JOB. "I'm a self-made man," said the proud individual. "Well, you are all right except as to your head," commented the listener. "How's that?"

Next time you want to estimate a •person's character at the first time of meeting glance at his eye- brows. Long, drooping' eyebrows, lying wide apart, indicate an amia- ble disposition. When the eye- brows are lighter in color than the hair, the indications are lack of vitality and great sensitiveness. Faintly -defined eyebrows, placed high above the nose, are signs of in- dolence and weakness. Very black syebrows are signs of a passionate temperament. Red eyebrows de- note fervor and ambitioee Where the arch of the eyebrow es well near the centre a romantic disposition is indicated; where it is nearer the nose, sense of humor may be looked Eor.

This was illustrated whentwo young men, well but quietly dressed, were admiring a, well-known picture of life in the time of Julius Caesar which was exhibited in a shop 'win- dow. One .of the men remarked, while looking at the, picture, that he wondered how the Roman's kept, their faces smooth, and whether they ever shaved; and, if they shaved, what were their razors like? Neither of the men could an- swer the question, and so they im- mediately consulted various au- thorities en the subject, and found, to their surprise, that razors were used for shaving in a very early part of the world's history. The Egyptians used some kind of a. ra- zor, though the Levitical oode ex- pressly forbade the shaving of the beard. It is believed the primitive shaving instruments were- made of sharpened flints. Savages in the remote islands scattered through- out the Pacific still use two pieces of flint of the same size for this pur- pose, and pieces of shells or shark's teeth are also used. Always 'Serviceable.—Most pills lose their properties with age. Not so with Parmelee's Vegetable Pills. The pill mass is so compounded that their strength and effective- ness is preserved and the pills can be carried anywhere without fear of Iosing their potency. This is a quality that few .pills possess. Some pills lose their power, but not so with Parmelee's. They will main- tain their freshness and potency for a long time. REASON WHY.
