THE EAGLE'S FLIGHT.
For weeks and weeks Lawrence
had been waiting for chance to
try his new bee kite that had been
given to him on his birthday by his
Uncle John,. The windhad come
ies sudden gpsta; or it had rained, or
he had been in scheel; but at last
there came a nice day, with a let of
wind, and Lawrence took out the
big kite, which was named. the
")Ingle," for its first flight, He
was alone, for he felt sure thee be
knew all about kites, and he was so
anxious to see it sail into the air
that he could not wait for the other
boys to come and share the sport.
- Lawrence placed the Eagle on the
ground at the end of the big garden,
and taking in his hand the long cord
which was attached to it, he started
to run: Almost as soon as he drag-
ged the kite from the spot whore he
had placed it, the stiff wind naught
it and lifted it upward. Then it
began to soar higher, and Lawrence
ran.faster and kept paying out the
rope. Suddenly- the kite flew sky-
ward with a great jerk, The rope
was wound round his wrist, and in
some way it became caught so that
he could not at once untangle it.
Then a stronger gust of wind seiz-
ed the Eagle, and in spite of all he
could do, Lawrence's arm was
pulled far above his head and he.
was almost lifted from the ground.
Still he did not think of danger, for
who ever heard of a kite carrying
off a boy, as a real eagle might do?
But the Eagle suddenly looked very
big to him as he glanced up at it,
And then came a stronger gust of
wind, and this time Lawrence felt
himself taken into the air.
"- It happened so quickly that he
had not time to be frightened or to
cry out. Almost before he could
turn his head to look downward at
-the •ground which he was leaving be-
hind, he felt the branches of a tree
brushing his face, and blindly he
elutched at them and held on with
both hands and legs. The kite tug-
ged away, but he clung all the
.harder ; and now he opened his
mouth and shouted loud and long
for help.
It was a very frightened mother
who ran to the back door and saw
Lawrence high in the branches of
the old elm, and the Eagle soaring
away at the end of its rope. Her
cries, added to his, quickly brought
a neighbor to the scene, and soon a
ladder was at hand. •
"Hang on till I got there 1" Mahout -
ed the man.
But Lawrence did not need ad-
vice of that kind, for he was as se-
curely tangled in the tree as the
cord of the kite was about his wrist
and arm. A moment or two later
he was safely back en the ground, a
little scratched and lamed, but real-
ly none the werse for his exciting
adventure.
"You are a lucky boy that the tree
was so handy and obliging," said
the man, as he carried off his lad-
der.
The Eagle looked very innocent
and harmless as they carried it back
into the house. "I gness I'll wait
until I 'weigh more, or else until I
learn more about kites,'before I
fly it again," said Lawrence. And
his mother agreed that that was a
moat sensible resolution. -Youth's

OAT STRAW FOR SHEEP. •
I't. is an excellent plan for every
'-farmer to put up every fall a quan-
tity of oats straw to help in carry-
ing the Sheep through the winter.
Wheat straw will answer the Dur -
pose, but it is not as good as oats
straw,
Of course, straw is not an ideal
feed for sheep. It contains a little
nutriment, but not much and a
greatdeal of food fiber, but clean
oats straw fed sparingly in con-
nection with roots or other •succu-
lent feed helps out wonderfully.
Placed in the rack with clover
hay it will be pretty well eaten up
every day and it undoubtedly saves
some grain.
Where a farmer has plenty of
• grain and little roughage oats
straw will help to piece out the ra-
tion admirably.
If fed in large quantities it will
almost 'certainly produce stomach
trouble, and this should always bo
avoided.

IIEUR) I,GIA CURED
This Painful Trouble is Duo to
Poytrty of Biol.
Neuralgia ie ono of the most
painful maladies that afflicts hu-'
manity, The trouble is usually seat-
ed in the face and head, following
the course of some nerve, but it at,
tacks other parts of the system as
well. It is characterized by acute
pains, sometimes steady, at others
spasmodic and darting, hoadaehes
and a feeling ea though the Forehead
was a bend of iron, Medical au-
thorities agree that neuralgia la a
ory of the nerve$ for better food,.
and that if the blood is puri1 ed
and enriched the trouble will dis-
appear. This is the reason why Dr.
Wiliams' Pink Phi's cure even the
most severe oases of neuralgia.
They actually make new. rich blood
which feeds the tired, starved
nerves and thus cure the trouble,
at the same time leaving the anffer-
er in better health .in every way
than was formerly enjoyed, In
proof. we give the ease of Mr. G.
Brooks, of Aurora, Ont., who says :
"About two years ago, while work-
ing in Collingwood, I was attacked
with neuralgia, which became se
bad that I was frequently unable to
go to work. The pain would start
over my 'right eye and would then
spread to the whole face, and
caused me the greatest agony. I
was under the care' of a good doc-
tor, but his treatment did not do
more than give me emporary relief,
and I was therefore an almost con-
stant sufferer. Acting on the ad-
vice of my wife I finally decided to
give Dr. Williams' Pink pills a
trial and I am profoundly thank-
ful that I did so, as in the course of
a few weeks I began to improve,
and after a further use of the Pills
the trouble disappeared and I have
not since had any trace of it, I may
also add that while taking the Pills
my weight increased . by . nine
pounds, which shows that the Pills
are a body builder as well as a
nerve restorer."

MAN A MILLION YEARS OLD.
Geologist Considers Rano., Existed
Before Glacial Period.
Tl tt the age of man is no 'less
than a million years, is the conclu-
sion that Dr, W. is
Sturge,
president of the prehistoric socie-
ty of East Anglia, England, con-
cludes from studies based largely.
on the neolithio flint instruments
found in North West Suffolk. He
says: "Neolithic man goes back
to some period between 200,000 and
300,000 years, and it would seem
that we have not even then reach-
ed the beginning of the period.
Drift man was flourishing from
1,000,000 to about 700,000 years ago.
Neither figure is a limit; the later
figure is probable nearer a limit
than the earlier. Between the end
of the Drift and the beginning of
the Neolithic we have the great
cave periods, which would thus
seem to have occupied anything
from 200,000 to 400,000 years. Be-
hind Drift man are vast ages of
which we aro only beginning to get
the first glimpses.
"But it now seems evident that
man was already on the earth in
early Pliocene times, and we must'
not be surprised if proofs are ulti-
mately brought forward that genus
homo goes back even farther than
that. It has become almost a
shibboleth that man first appeared l,IITI[
in Pleistocene times, but I affirm
that it is no more than shibboleth."
D. Sturge has found flint in-
struments which, he contends,
wee scratched by glacial action,
That is a glacial geology, Since
Noor thio man any instruments of
Ncolithio typesmwore made, is
against all views of glacial geo-
logy, Sinee Neolithic Mari Caine
to Britain, the doctor holds, there
has been an ice age not continuous,
but divided into sub periods of
glaciation. Proof of this is found
in humanly worked flints present-
ing sharply defined types of
scratching.
POR PREVENTION OF FIRE.
Neglect of `Illrese Cautions Often
Leads to Disaster.
The following "fire don'ts," pre-
pared by the New York fire depart-
ment, are equally valuable to
every householder. Out them out
and keep them handy for frequent
reference. Observance of the
eautione given may save you from
a visitation by fire:—»
Don't leave everything to the
landlord; irispect' yeu own house
from cellar to garret, and locate
all exits,
Don't threw cigars or cigarettes
out of wineo'vs. . They drop on
awnings and est them afire.
Don't allow children to play with
matches.
Don't use matches or candles in
darkclosets or cellars.
Don't keep matches except in a
tin box with cover attached.
Don't toss away a match unless
completely extinguished, and then
toss it into a mental or porcelain
receptacle.
Don't fill lamps or oil stoves
while lighted.
Don't use kerosene oil in light-
ing fires.
Don't use naphtha or gasoline for
cleaning purposes where there are
open lights or fires.
Don't accumulate old beds and
bedding or other trash in cellars.
Don't neglect to have the chim-
ney flue cleaned once a year. You
are responsible, not your landlord.
If you must have lace curtains
or other draperies near gas jets,
see that the jets are properly pro-
tected.
SICKLY BABIES CRY
HEALTHY BABIES SMILE
Baby's cry indicates distress—his
smile health and contentment. The
mother may be sure there never was
a baby who cried for the fun of it.
Baby's disposition is naturally a
happy one and it is only distress
such as may be brought on by a dis-
ordered condition of the stomach
or bowels that can change this. So,
mothers, to keep your baby happy
you must keep him well—Baby's
Own Tablets will do this, Concern-
ing them Mrs. Chas. Potvin, Causa-
patcia, N. S.,. writes: "Baby's Own
Tablets have proved an excellent
remedy for my baby. I had been
using syrups, but they failed to help
him and he cried constantly. The
Tablets cured him and now he is -a
fat, healthy child." The Tablets are
sold by medicine dealers or by mail
at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Wil-
liams' Medicine Co., Brockville,
Ont. '

you can't even spell 'bird.' "
"B -u -r -d," said Duncan.
"I tell you you don't know any-

Saint Walburg, flask„ Nov. 13
(Special).--Qne healthy, happy fam-
ily in this neighborhood are always
reedy' to 'speak a good word for
Dedd's Kidney Pills. They are Mr.
and Mrs. Leon Sergent, and here
is the reason in Mr. Sereenb's own
words;
"I suffered with my Kidneys and
I was very feeble. My urine was
thick and had a brick -oust sedi-
ment. As Dodd's Kidney Pills had
already cured my wife I bought
three boxes. Now my urine is nor-
mal and I feel fine,"
It is statements such as these that
give Dodd's Kidney Pills their po-
pularity. They are no cure-all
They simply cure diseased Kidneys
and the ills that come from dis-
eased Kidneys.But no matter'
what neighborhood you visit yeu

been sick anti in pain and has been
cured by Dodd's Kidney Pills. lior

CONDITIONS IN SIBERIA.
Population Iner'eases at hate of
Half a Million a Year.
Tho population of Siberia, now
eleven millions,, increases at the
rate of half a million per annum.
Siberia contains two contiguous
districts, capable of being civilized,
each as large as Prussia, viz., the
plain in the Government of Tobolsk,
east of the Urals, and north of
the Trans-Siberian railway, and
the steeps in the Government of
Tomsk, south of the railway to the
Altai mountains. These two dis-
tricts have the densest popu-
lation of any in Siberia, raise the
most grain, produce the most but-
ter, and use the most agricultural
and other machinery. The moun-
tain districts of Middle Siberia
only have a few cultivable valleys
along the rivers, and there is still
less useful land east of Lake Baikal.
In no country was a railway,
destined to work such changes as in
Siberia, although it rens exactly
on the old trading route. The
huge difficulties incident to travel
and transportation in pre -railway,
times had developed a condition:
where all trading was transacted
-once a year, while roads and rivers
were passable, at markets or fairs,
and merchandise was Hauled, in as
many months as it now takes days,
to its ultimate destination. Trad-
ing instincts naturally developed
in a' speculative direction and mono-
poly was the ideal of the Siberian
trader. Prices were subject to
rapid and great variation.

Trial is Inexpensive.—To those

action that many cures can cer-
tainly be traced to their use where
other pills have proved ineffective.

BEWARE OF BLOOD•POISOIY
Zam-Euk Is A Sure Owe.
Mr. Jas. Davey, of 786 Ellice
Avenue, Winnipeg, says :—"A few
months since I was cured of a poi-
soned finger thr"ugh the timely use
of Zam-Buk.
"T cut a deep gash across the
knuckle on the first finger of my
right hand in opening a lobster can.
I suffered at the time with the sore-
ness and pain, but had no idea it
would become a serious wound.
However, in about two days my
whole hand and arm to the elbow
became inflamed, and the finger was
much discolored, showing signs of
blood -poisoning.
"I then decided to start the Zam-
Buk treatment, and having first
bathed the cut, I applied the heal-
ing balm. It soothed the pain al
most instantly.
"In a week's time, through per-
severance with Zam-Buk, a com-
plete ours was brought talent."
Zam-Buk is just as good for ec-

piles, ringworm, boils, varicose ul-
