Mayer states: "1 think•no one ever suffered so se- verely as I did for hearlY six months. So many serious symptoms were de- veloping as a consequence of this evil condition of my system that 1 realized I must find a remadi. The strong pills of various kinds I tried seemed after their first effects were over to make me far worse, and I did not know which way to turn for relief. I saw Dr. Hamilton's Pills advertised, and the first box used satisfied me, I found a true remedy. Instead of griping with undue activity, Dr. Ilam- ilton's Pills acted as naturally, as if physic had net been taken. I never had to increase the doge, and, indeed, within a month I reduced it, and when the system finally acted of its own accord as a result of Dr. Hamilton's Pills, I took a dose twice a week onlY, just to make sure the old condition would not come back." No other remedy cures constipation and biliousness so easily or safely as Dr. Hamilton's Pills; they are an ideal family remedy for all diseases of the stomach, liver and bowels.

Montreal, April 4—A. Herald -Tele- graph cable from Cracow, Poland, says: Pitiful seeri6i. are _being enacted daily at Aliplowiti, Silesia, and the immediate vicinity. Thousands of men, women and children, facing star- vation in Galicia, have been pouring into Silesia, begging frantically for bread, their harvest in Galicia having been a total loss. So extreme is their distress through the failure of the harvest and the en- forced service of able-bodied men in the army during the mobilization caused by the Balkan war, that the men are willing to sell • their daugh- ters, and even wives, for a morsel of bread. Many hundreds are already dead from starvation and exposure. Despite the terrible plight of the Xefugees, the Prussian police are driv- ing the ragged and famished peasants back across the border like so many cattle. GERMAN SPY Draws Six -Year Term in British Court. London, April 6—The trial of Frederick Adolphus • Gould and his wife, charged with spying on the British navy, sup- posedly in the interest of Germany, was begun and ended to -day at the Old Bailey. Gould was sentenced to six years' penal servitude, to Pe followed by dn- portation. Mrs. Gould was discharged, the indictment against her being, with- drawn. The fact that Gould's arrest followed upon an investigation by the secret ser- vice police indicates that he obtained possession of important naval documents, and the serious view taken of the case was shown by the sentence, the maxi- mum penalty being seven years. Gould, whose real name is said to be .Schroeder, pleaded guilty to obtaining certain plans and documents calculated to be useful to a, foreign State, but plead- ed not guilty to the second charge, of inciting his wife to commit a like of- fence. The search of Gould's house disclosed one remarkable document, which tho attorney -General thought it against. the public interest to read. It contained a series of skillfully -framed questions up- on Which Gould had been invited to pUe. sue inquiries. .* • • REPLENISH YOUR BLOOD IN THE SPRING Just 'now you the feeling "out of eorts"—not your usual self..

Suddenly the ceptain turned full face to address Violet, and the displeasing expression had gone.. Then he turned again, and Leicester understood it. On one aide of Mr. Murpoint's face was better looking than the other. On the right side, in a line with the ear, there was a eear—a small white scar —too small one would bane thought to have marred the face, but mar it it certainly did, for, whether the captain smiled or frowned, that sear remained the sante—inflexible, white, repulsive, givinethe sinister cast to the right side of the face which had startled Leic?itter, Was the captain aware of this blot on his beauty?

Leicester's turn came, and grew _more searching in their expression as, they met the calm regard of the young man. But the keennese of scrutiny—for it was nothing more nor lees—was temper- ed by a smile. Captain Murpoint possess- ed the rare art of smiling well. "I beg that you will not delay the meal nor change a single course. I am a case-hardened traveler, and too used to short fare to think anything of the lose of soup and fish. Indeed, my dear mad- am, if you will pardon no for a few mo- mentfor something more orthodox and suitable." Mrs, Mildmay bowed graciously, and turned to a footman. "I have brought my man with me —a faithful fellow, who has been my tom- panion in fair weather and foul all over the globe," said the captain, mov- ing toward the door. "Pray, let nie im- plore you not to spoil your dinner." So saying, he passed through the doorway, outside which, eyeing the ele- gant room with a satisfied and com- prehensive gaze, stood the grim -faced, sharp-eyed 'faithful fellow,' the cap- tain's servant. Violet had not epoken a single Word save those she had addressed io the cap- tain. A sweet, solemn gravity had set- tled upon her fair, young 'face, brought there by the memories of her father, which this stranger's arrival had called up. She sighed whets hie soft, pleasing vcriee had died away, and turned almost with it etart to her neighbor, Mr. Leto& ter.

CHAPTER III. In the few minutes consumed by Cap- tain Murpoint in mastering the emo- tion which the sight of his old friend's daughter had produced, Mrs. Mildmay "There you have the advantage of me," said the captain, setting his wine- glass down, and looking round at the attentive facce. "I left my native land when a boy of eighteen, and retitined only two days since," "Ah," said the vicar, in his nervous, jerky style, "then you have much to see, Captain Murpoint.

Roses, carnations, violets, and many other speciee of floivers have successfully been treated with chemical . mixtures and imee been made to attain many different colors, but not until recently have the investigators ex- tended their experiments into the animal world. In Sicily it is said fish have been col- ored to suit the human fancy. As Yet the experiments have not been carried out extensively, as the process used is said to be somewhat dangerous. Few fish other than carp liave been experi- mented upon, and thus far good restilts have been obtained. The process consists of the inteoclue- tion of challc, iron, and a quantity of peat into the water where the fish are kept.
