Baby's Own Tablets are a safe medi- cine for little ones the mother may feel sure of that. They are sold under an absolute guarantee of a government analyst not to contain narcotics or other harmful drugs that cannot pos- sibly do harm always good.

The Tablets quickly relieve and cure all the minor ills of babyhood and childhood. They sweeten the stomach, regulate the bowels, expel worms, break up colds and make baby healthy, happy and fat. They are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.

McArthur, M.P.P, for North Mid- dlesex against Mr. John Grieve, the Liberal candidate. An audience of 30,000 might easily awe a speaker less experienced than Mrd Churchill, 60,000 ears to catch! John Wesley, however, often caught as many at one time. In 1773, for in- stance, he held an audience of 32,000. "The largest assembly I ever preached to," he wrote. "Perhaps the first time a man of 70 has been heard by 30,000 at once." This, however, was not his greatest feat: "I preached at Bristol," he wrote in his journal in 1752. "Observing that several sat on the opposite side of the hill, I after- wards asked one to measuse the ground and we found it was seven score yards from where I stood, yet the people heard distinctly. I did not think any human voice could have reached so far."—London Chronicle.
