Some years ago I had anaemia, and
as I did not realize the seriousness of
the trouble I soon became a complete
wreck. I got so weak I could hardly
walk. I neither ate nor slept well,
and could not go upstairs without
stopping to rest. At times I had an
almost unbearable pain in my back
and would have to remain in bed. I
suffered almost constantly from a dull
headache, and when sweeping if I
would stoop to pick up anything I
would get so dizzy that I would have
to catch hold of something to keep
from falling. At times my heart
would beat so fast that I would have
a smothering sensation. My eyes
were sunken and my hands and limbs
would be swollen in the mornings. I
tried several kinds of medicine with-
out benefit and my friends thought I
would not recover. Then I began tak-
ing Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and be-
fore long could see and feel that they
were helping me. I gladly continued
the use of the pills until I was com-
pletely cured and I cannot say enough
in their praise, and I strongly recom-
mend them to all run-down girls and
women."

QUENCH THIRST BY STRATEGY.
A General Can't Get Liquor in. Paris
Cafes, But Wife Can.
Gen. Gallieni's order against alcohol
being served to military men has
caused many an amusing scene in the
Paris restaurants. In the provinces
the order is not so strictly observed.
An official definition as to what con-
stitutes alcohol has been given, by
which it appears that men in uniform
are entitled to drink any natural wine
or any liquor not more than 15 de-
grees strong. This bars even ver-
mouths and quinquinas, all of which
contain more than 15 degrees, in fact,
it leaves no "aperitif" that is consid-
ered worth drinking.
British Generals have been refused
whiskey and soda at dinner, much to
their indignation, and, when as often
happens, their French is not sufficient
to enable them to understand the rea-
son, the other diners have had some
fun out of the incidents. At many a
restaurant when the coffee stage was
reached it could be noted that officers
seemed to be taking two cups at once.
One contained a liqueur. Some res-
taurant keepers close their eyes when
an officer orders a soft drink for him-
self and alcohol for his wife, and each
drinks from the other's glass. Other
restaurants are more careful, explain-
ing that such and such a place had
been closed for two days for allowing
such a dodge.
Men on leave from the front take
the matter philosophically, some re-
sentfully, some smilingly. At the
front itself the rum ration has been
suppressed except for the men in the
17,028 tonnage, Of these, four of
15,665 tons were built on the Clyde.
Ten thousand dollars damage was
caused by a fire that broke out at
the North British Locomotive Com-
pany's Works in Flemington, Spring-
burn.
An egg collection was made at the
Ashlcirk Parish Church on behalf of
the Military Hospital at Hawick, to
which the people sent 38 dozen eggs.
The new road at Seafield, built as
part of the North British Railway ex-
tension scheme for the development
of the Lothian mineral field, is now
open.
The lighting of Glasgow streets is
to be reduced by one-half after mid-
night, to restrict municipal expense
and to make the city less conspicuous
from above.
Two small squads of Clyde engi-
neers now work on Saturday after-
noon in different establishments, re-
lieving men who have been employed
throughout the week.
Glasgow Corporation have remitted
to a committee to consider the advisa-
bility of holding in Glasgow an exhi-
bition similar to Leipzig Fair and
other stock fairs held on the Conti-
nent.
Five motor ambulance wagons, sub-
scribed for by members of the
licensed trade in Scotland, have been
presented to the Scottish branch of
the British Red Cross Society, by the
Lord Provost of Glasgow. The trade
will raise $25,000 and present twelve
ambulances in all.
Edinburgh Town Council has re-
ceived an intimation from the Secre-
tary for Scotland that while Town
Councillors will continue in office for
another year, a Lord Provost and
Bailie would have to be elected in
November.
The King has signed an Order -in -
Council applying the Defence of the

UP-TO-DATE TARGETS.
Represent a Whole Army Marching
or Fighting.
It is dull work firing at a bullseye
target, so that it is not surprising
that the old-time soldier made small
progress with his marksmanship.
But set before "hien a target which
embodies a definite idea, and appeals
to his intelligence as wells as his
skill, and half the battle of good
shooting is won.
This is the secret—with much prac-
tice and good training as well, of
course—of the fine marksmanship of
our men, for the bullseye is now only
used in the elementary stage of rifle
practice.
An up-to-date target represents a
soldier, a horseman, a gun, or a whole
army marching or fighting, scaled to
size as it would appear at certain dis-
tances, and the soldier fires at it in-
dividually or in sections.
He begins by firing at a single tar-
get, representing the head and shoul-
ders of a man lying down in the fir-
ing position, and some of these tar-
gets fall backwards when hit. He
thus becomes familiarised with the
appearance of different objects first first line trenches. A returned
u,l when asked what was his
when viewed from various des- chief souvenir of the campaign so far
tances, and he learns to shoot straight
as well as to estimate distances. No (he had been at the front all the time
longer is he a mere automaton, pull-
ing his trigger when his rifle is aim-
ed at an object which he is told is so
many yards distant.
Most wonderful of all is the Solano
target, which represents a whole bat-
tle scene, with moving figures in their
proper size and even the haze of dis-
tance allowed for. Ingenious devices
provide other illusions which enable
the soldier to become a perfect marks-
man. -
So it is with the artillery. There
are dummy villages to shoot at—let
us haste to say they represent posi-
tions held. by troops -cavalry on wires
chargfr across shell -strewn plains, and
sham guns belch forth smoke and
fiance.
When firing ceases it can be ascer-
tained how many of the "enemy" have
been annihilated.

CHILDHOOD AILMENTS
Ailments such as constipation, colic,
colds, vomiting, etc., seize children of
all ages, and the mother should be on
her guard against these troubles by
keeping a box of Baby's Own Tablets
in the house. If any of these troubles
come on suddenly the tablets will cure
them, or if the little one is given an
occasional dose of the tablets he will
escape these troubles. The tablets

SHOOTING FOR RAIN.
An Expert Says Cannonading Will
Not Cause Rain.
At a recent meeting of the Royal
Meteorological Society, Dr. H. R. Mill,
director of the British Rainfall Orga-
nization, discredited the theory that
the firing at the seat of war was the
cause of the heavy rainfalls of last
winter. Those who argue that can-
nonading causes rain assert that the
concussion shakes the air and thus
precipitates the moisture in the
clouds. If that theory is correct, the
precipitation should occur immediate-
ly and in the area within which the
explosions shake up the air strata. As
a platter of fact, the lack of rain in
the western war area during the
months of September, October, March
and April was noticeable and un-
usual. In the same way, he said,.
people had attributed the exceptional
wetness of the winter of 1903 to the
general adoption of wireless tele-
graphy. The fact that the winter of
1873, which was long before the use
of Hertzian waves, was notably wet,
and that no year since 1903 has been
nearly so wet, in spite of the enor-
mous increase in radiotelegraphy,
shows the inaccuracy of such an ex-
planation.

Modern Battleship Uses Twenty Tons
of Coal an Hour.
The British Navy is the world's
champion coal -consumer.
In 1913, under peace conditions, the
Admiralty spent no less than $11,-
455,245 on fuel. What the bill for
1914 will be time alone will tell, but
it will be many times greater than
what it was in 1913. Every ship is in
commission, every bunker is crammed
with black diamonds, and, day and
night, a full head of steam has to be
maintained, ready at a moment's no-
tice for the order "Full speed ahead."
The average modern battleship re-
quires about twenty tons of coal an
hour in order to maintain a full head
of steam. And we have nearly seventy
such ships at present in commission,
says London Answers. A battle cruis-
er, such as the Lion, has engines of
greater horse -power than the average
battleship, and consequently requires
more fuel.
When Sir David Beatty's squadron
of five battle -cruisers paid their fam-
ous visit to the Heligoland Bight,
they consumed between them nearly
5,000 tons of the best Welsh steam
coal
Considering their size, torpedo-boat
destroyers are even bigger gluttons
for coal than battle -cruisers. Our
Navy must be burning over 100,000
tons in the course of a day. The Ger-
man Navy, which is resting so com-
fortably in the Kiel Canal, is doubt-
less very much more economical.
The British taxpayer can therefore
look forward to being presented with
the biggest coal bill the world has
ever known. He can also look for-
ward to going short of coal himself.
Germany used to be our best cus-
tomer for coal, but the Navy is more
than making up for any custom we
have lost through the war.
Stocks are getting low and prices
see going up and up. But we shall
have one consolation as we sit by our
ehnpty grates. We may shiver, but
Jellicoe is getting all the Aid he
needs. And a battleship wit Me t' sjuf-
ficient coal is of no more 1ellielt1'han
so much scrap -iron. M

ZINC IN WAR TIME.
A Constituent of Cartridge Brass and
Shell Fuses.
Zinc is so essential in war that it
has risen enormously in price in the
past year. Costing originally only
two-fifths as much as copper, it now
costs decidedly more than copper, in
spite of the fact that copper itself has
Sharply increased in value. Zinc is a
constituent of cartridge brass and
shell fuses, and is used also as a cov-
ering for iron barbed-wire fencing.
In 1913 the United States, Germany,
and Belgium were the leading pro-
ducers of zinc. Of the three, only the
United States smelted domestic ores.
Belgium and Germany relied mainly
on zinc concentrates that they import-
ed from the Broken Hill mines in New
South Wales, where, for one reason
and another, it does not pay to do the
smelting. France, Spain, and Great
Britain also produce substantial quan-
tities, but not enough to supply their
own needs. Austria and Germany
have considerable deposits of ore in
Silesia, Hungary, Carinthia, and the
Tirol. As the zinc -smelting furnaces
of Great Britain are not well adapted
for dealing with the Broken Hill con-
centrates, it buys the bulk of its sup-
plies from the United States.
NEW WAY OF FIGHTING FLIES.
A Farmer Gives an Easily Applied
Preventative.
Farmers whose barns and outhouses
are infested by flies in the summer
season may be interested in learning
how to banish the pests. According
to the Bloemfontein (South African)
Friend, a farmer who had many cows
housed in different sheds saw, without
being able to prevent it, the annoy-
ance to which the animals were sub-
jected. He happened, however, to ob-
serve that one shed, the walls of
which were of a somewhat bluish
tint, was free from flies, and the cows
were unworried by their attacks.
Thereupon he added a bit of blue color
to the lime with which he covered the
walls of his sheds, and from that mo-
ment the flies deserted the premises.
The following is the formula he
used in providing this effective speci-
fic against flies: To twenty gallons of
water add ten pounds of slaked lime
and one pound of ultramarine. The
wash should be applied twice during
the summer.

MOTHER'S "NOTIONS"
Good for Young People to Follow.
"My little grandson often comes up
to show me how large the muscles of
his arms are.
"He was a delicate child, but has
developed into a strong, healthy boy,
and Postum has been the principal
factor.
"I was induced to give him the Pos-
tum .because of my own experience
with it.
"I am sixty years old, and have
been a victim of nervous dyspepsia
for many years. Have tried all sorts
of medicines and had treatment from.
many physicians, but no permanent
relief came.
"I used to read the Postum adver-
tisements in our paper. At first I
gave but little attention to them, but.
finally something in one of the adver-
tisements made me conclude to try
Postum.
"I was very particular to -have it
prepared strictly according to direc-
tions, and used good, rich cream. It
was very nice indeed, and about bed-
time I said to the members of the
family that. I_ believed I felt better.
One of them laughed and said, 'That's
another of mother's notions,' but the
notion has not left me yet.
"I continued to improve right along
after leaving off tea and coffee and
taking Postum, and now after three
years' use I feel so well that I am
almost young again. I know Postum
was the cause of the change in my
health and I cannot' say too much in
its favor..I wish I could persuade all
nervous people to use it."

If you have any muscles that are
strained and weak, that are frequent-

have any painful swellings that re-
fuse to go away—get busy with Ner-
viline, This is the very sort of trou-
ble that Nerviline is noted for curing
quickly, "I have proved Nerviline
simply a wonder in reducing a hard,
painful swelling. It followed an in-

of Mr, Bowen, whose home is in Mid-

Numbers More

Effective
Sea Than
The question of numerical superior-
ity is of extremely great importance
in naval fights—much greater than in
land battles, says the World's. Work,
Ashore a weaker force, by entrenching
and using obstacles, can stand off a
much stronger one; for example, the
German_ army in France has probably
been outnumbered more than two to
one during the recent extraordinary
operations, yet the allied troops have
been unable to make very much head-
way against the strongly intrenched
line,
But on the water the "terrain" of-
fers no 'protection, and, in conse-
quence, it is mathematically demon-
strable that, assuming equality of
units, the "strength" of two opposing
fleets varies as the "square" of the
numbers of ships.
The great value of initial numerical
superiority is evident; if England's 45
dreadnoughts can bring to action
Germany's 26, the preponderance of
strength of the larger fleet (assum-
ing equal units) will be in the ratio
of 2025 to 676—that is to say, Eng-
land's superiority will be actually
more than three to one, instead of
less than two to one, as seems at
first evident from the numerical pro-

A More Elaborate Article Than Most
People Imagine.
The Great Seal of England that
Lord. Haldane handed to the King
when he resigned the Lord Chancel-
lorship is, says the London Chronicle,
a more elaborate article than most
people imagine. It costs about $3,500
to make it, and it consists of two
heavy silver plates, in one of which
is cut the die for the front of the seal,
and in the other, that for the back.
When the seal is to be affixed to a
document, a lump of wax is softened
in hot water and cooled in cold water,
after which it is placed between the
two plates and pressed. It comes out
in the shape of a disk, with an im-
pression on each side.
Formerly there was an official at-
tached to the seal who was quite as
proud of his office as the Lord Chan-
cellor was of his. That was "Chaff-
wax," whose sole business was to melt
the wax and to take the impressions
of the Great Seal as often as required.
The writer remembers the last of the
"Chaffwaxes," a rosy-cheeked old
gentleman who lived long to enjoy
the pension that a grateful country
granted him for his important ser-
vices. Those services are now per-
formed by an unnamed subordinate
in the chancellor's office.

The Warm Bath.
Smythe's mistake, which is describ-

have been disconcerting, to say the
least.
"You'll find your bath in the out-

Thus he had been directed the night
before at the little inn where he was
stopping, and that is why he was now,
in his dressing gown, pushing open
the outhouse door. It was dark, but
there was the tub, and it would do.
He hopped in. In the middle of his
ablutions the red-faced landlord
throust his head in at the door. In
the dim light he failed to see the man
in the tup.
"Water quite nicely warm, thanks,"
observed Smythe, "but it's a trifle
muddy."
"Muddy be hanged!" roared the
landlord, bursting in suddenly. "Your
tub's in the next place. Git out of it,
you blitherin' idiot! Not a word of
this in the 'ouse, mind! not a word
of this in. the 'ousel That's my 'ome-
brewed ale you're a-washin' in!"

To Raise Telegraph Rates.
Along with the rise in the price of
nearly everything else, the telegraph
rate in Great Britain will probably
soon be raised. It is reported that the
postal authorities — the telegraph
lines are the Government -controlled

creasing, from 12 to 18 cents, the rate
for sending a 12 -word message, ad-
dress and signature to be counted as
words as heretofore. The 12 -cent rate
has been in force 30 years.

and relieves constipation or "money

War does not make all men blood-

Belgium where there has been such
fierce fighting, the ambulance men one
day found a young German badly '
wounded; and in the midst of the
bursting shells they stopped to scrib-
ble a line describing what they had
seen and heard, and pinned it on the
blanket that enveloped him.
When he reached the improvised
hospital, the nurses read the blood-
stained sheet of packing paper, and
one or two brushed away tears as
they did so. It bore these words: "He
saved the lives of seven British sol-
diers." It is good to know that, ten-
derly cared for by an English doctor,
he eventually recovered.
