against til" sky and began to drop with
the Milne of a elan dangling from the

peet.el thea it took the spectators com-
pletely b surprise. Even the ma-
jority of the naval and army officers
had owt been looking for any such
thing.

and descended gently to the ground.
As teem a+ it touched ground the dirig-

around the )lel( told continued until
time came for landing.
Major J. W, Barney, of the United
Stites medical corps, was the first to
read! the spot where the p:raci1010
fell. Ito rude out from headquarters
In a hide, car and wa:4 a;toilis.leni to
find that the figure (1)111 that of Major
Pritchard, conlntand1) of the I1-11. He
had expectocl to fetid a member of the
crew wile had been seta clown with a
ml•ssage, fie found the major' lying
flat on lois back, efi?'ugsling to extri-
cate hh1p0l( from 1110 tangle of the
parachute ropes.
"Are you hurt?" he demanded
"No;" replied the Britisher, jumping
to his feet. std brushing his clothing.
"I'm feeling bully."
"How do you feel generally?" asked
Major Barney.
"A bit stiff;" was the reply, "but
otherwise 1111 right, Can you direct
me to naval J1 adquarters? I should
like to make some arrangements for
the landing."
On the way to headquarters Major
Barney asked for some details about
the voyage. And then the man who
had just finished an epoch-making
trolls -atlantic flight and had topped it
off with a 1000 -foot parachute jump re-
plied;
"The voyage was all right, but a
little dry."
Major Barney was perplexed. He
suspected the distinguished visitor
was complaining about the lack of
stimulants aboard the airship.
"What (lo you mean by dry?" he In-
quired.
"Dull," was the astonishing explana-
tion. "Lacking excitement, Too much
of R. We should have been hero long
ago,"
Arriving at headquarters, Major
Pritchard stripped off his outer gar-
ments of white wool, revealing the
full dross, pale blue uniform of the
Royal Flying Force. Then, with the
utmost matter-of-factness, he preceded
to outline his plans for the landing' of

Judging Character.
That the halal furnisbos a most pre-
cise index to character may 1101 ap-
peal to those who have a preconceived
antipathy to what they regard as
gypsy fraud—palmistry. Nevertheless,
one of the most painstaking seekers
after truth, Captain d'Arpentigny, a
French army officer to the time of.
Napoleon Bonaparte became convinced
tbat the bony structures of tate hands
and fingers was in some mysterious
way connected with the spiritual na-
ture of man, With painstaking care
he examined many thousands of hands,
classifying them, until the result of
his researches assumed the fora! of
a veritable science.
For instance, he found that long
fingers indicate a mind which delights
in performing minute, delicate work
and revels in details, whereas short
fingers aro indicative of quite the op-
posite propensity. A person with very
short fingers, he found, has no
patience at all with detail, but wants
things presented at once and in their
entirety. And, moreover, he cares
only for big undertakings.

A HORSE'S APPEAL.
Every lover of horses will be in-
terested in the following appeal. It
originated in France and came to this 1
country through re lieutenant who re-
ceived a copy of It from a French ar-
tillery olllcer.
"Tu thee, my meeter, I offer my
prayer,
"Treat me as a lament 1;,oing, not as
a machine. Feed me, water anti care
for nor, and. when the day's work is
done. groom ale carefully; for, re-
member, a good grooming is equiva-
lent to half al feed, Clean my feet 011(1
legs, and keep then! in good condltion,
for they are the most important part
of my body,
"Pot me sometimes. Be always
i g0111,1a to me, so tluot-I may serve you
the more gladly, and learn to love you,
"Do not jerk the reins. Do not
whip me when I am going uphill. Do
not force ale out of my regular gait,
or you will not have my regular
strength when you want it, Never
strike, beat or kick ale when I do not
understand what you mean; but give
ane a chance to understand you. 'Watch
cue; and if I full to (lo your bidding,
see if something is not wrong with
my harness or feet.
"Don't draw the straps too tight;
give ale freedom to move my head.
Don't make my load too heavy, and,
oh, I pray thee, have me shod every
month,
"Examine my teeth when I do not
eat. I may have some teeth too long,
or I may- have an ulcerated tooth, and
that, you know, is very painful. Do
not tie my head in an unnatural posi-
tion, or take away my best defense
against fifes and mosquitoes by cutting
off my tail.
"I cannot, alas!' tell you when I am
thirsty; sogive me 1'e I
Y, pure, cold water
frequently. 1)0 ail you can to protect
m0 from the sun, and throw a. cover
over ale—not when I ant working, but
when I am standing in the cold.
"I always try to do cheerfully the
work you require of me, and day and
night I stand for !lours patiently wait-
ing for you. Therefore, o11, my mas-
ter, treat me in the kindest way!"
Why She Smiled.
Father objected to his daughter's
swain—a fact of which the young man
was well aware. But the lure of love
is strong, and the wooer often braved
the wrath of the father for the sake
of the daughter's smiles.
One evening the old mar found the
young fellow in the hall when he re-
turned fh'onl the club, and promptly
and efUcieutly hastened his departure,
"Oh, dad." walled the fair Phyllis,
es the old chap limped into the sit-
ting -room, "I hope you haven't hurt
Arthur!"
"Ih 1't hhn 1" growled father, as he
sank into a chair and nursed his right
foot, "No, I haven't hurt him! But
if he comes hero again with bricks in
his coat-tail pockets, VII kill !him!"

as every mother l(now1, that tend to
make her nerves run down. A change
would benefit her jade,( system, and
rest !night improve her blood so as
to give the nerves a better tone, But
rest and change are often hnpnscdbli+,
and 1t is then that all Wore out wo-
men should take a short treatment
with Dr. W1111:un8' 1'11112 Pills, which
make new blood, rich with the ele-
ments on which the nerves thrive.
In this way these pills restore regu-
lar health, increased energy, new am-
bition and steady nerve, There is a
lesson for other women in the case
of Mrs. Harry 1'. Snider, Wilton. Ont.,
who says:- -"Five yours ago 1117 twin
babies were born, and I was left 80rY
weals and very miserable, hardly tit
to do anything. The doctor gave 1110
medicine, but it (11(1 not help Ino.
Then I tried another doctor, but with
011( better results, One day I went
home to my mother, tolling her how
miserable I felt, and that tate doctor's
nuelieine had not done me (111)' good.
Mother asked m0 why I did not try
Dr. Williams' Pini( Pills, and as I
was glad to try anything that might
help me, I got three boxes when I
went back home, Icy the time these
were used there was no doubt they
were helping ane, and I got three
more boxes. Ilut I diel not need them
all, for by the time the fifth box was
used, I was entirely cured, and never
felt better in my life. Now• when I
hear people talk about feeling weak
or miserable I always recommend Dr,
Williams' Pink Pills, and tell what
they did for 111e, and in similar cases
I s11a11 continue to recommend them."
At the first sign that the blood is
out of order take Dr, Williams' Pink
Pills, and note the speedy improve-
ment they male in the appetite, health
and spirits. You can get these pills
through • any Medicine dealer or by
mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for
$2.50 from The Dr, Williams' Medi-
cine Co., Brockville, Ont,

What dead Queen takes the homage of
the Straits
And enters England by the English
gates,
And with a Royal escort? Whq is she
That passes through the land so splen-
didly?
As Eleanor, above whose halted bier
A Cross is set to tell a queen lay here?
A Mary, borne from Fotheringay to
rest
Where earth is kinder than a sister's
breast?
Nay! 'tis no cmeen for whom two sum-
mer skies
O'er silent streets of myriad moistened
eyes
In two great capitals a love proclaim,
Scornful of death and innocent of
fame;
No queen—only a simple English
11117'80
Slaughtered between a challenge and
a 0111'80,
Who learned her duty where she
learned to pray,
And died as truly as she lives today!
All that she had—and that was life—
she gave,
All that she valued—other lives—to
save;
All that we praise, and all we fain
would be,
Is summed in her and her simplicity,
Nothing to Hinder Him.
The farmer and his fair young cous-
in from tho City were going round the
farm together, and the farmer was
rapidly failing beneath the spell of the

knew the way to do it,
"Now, that's a pretty scene," 11e
said, pausing beside the fence of a
paddock in which a cow and a calf
were rubbing 110808 together in bovine
love. "The sight of it makes mo want
to (l0 the same."
"Well, go one' said the sweet young
tlh11lg placidly; "it's your cow, you

11111o. I1( Red, is the native helve of
the buffalo, and it still exists there ,t'1
t wild animal. Very wild indeed it is, I
too, and an old bull is very apt to at-
tack unprel'oked, contrary to tho usual
Cu8t0111 of almost all wild animals.
Even its tante descendants retain
plenty of ;spirit. It is said that when
in a herd they do not fear the tiger,
and a recogulzed method of getting
"stripes” to bolt when he has taken to
cover is to drive in a herd of buffaloes
to rout 111111 out, which they will do to
a certainty if they get on his scent,
liven tame buffalos can make them-
selves Vel'y unpleasant to people they
do not lcuow, and they are not at all
safe for a Westerner to approach in
India, but, and here appears the most
attractive side of their character, they
display toward elledr owners a faith -
10.1111089 one usually associates ratite
with dogs than with cattle,
The true Indian buffalo is to a grey
extent an aquatic animal and when of
duty likes noticing so much as to li
up to its ear's in water, but, liketh
duck, It can 11 necessary resign itself
to existence without a bath. That an
animal so nearly naked of protecting
hair as it Is should thrive in so cold
a climate EM that of Eastern Europe is
a remarkable fact of acclimatization.
Its presence in Italy' is less surpris-
ing, but ev011 there its introduction
seems to be merely of medieval date,
Scientifically, the tame buffalo is of in-
terest as having, like the ass, varied
so little from the wild type, Pied buf-
faloes etre as rare as pied donkeys,
though white and fawn colored varie-
ties occur ice well as the natural black,
Like the ass also, the buffalo is a des-
pised animal, yet in local utility both
beasts may surpass their more aristo-
cratic relitives, the horse and the ex,
while in intelligence and "force of
character" they aro certainly far su-
perior.

RED HOT JULY DAYS
HARD ON THE BABY
July—the month of oppressive heat;
red hot days and sweltering nights, is
extremely hard on little ones. Diarr-
hoea, dysentery, colic and cholera in-
lantum carry off thousands of precious
little lives every summer. The mother
must be constantly on her guard to
prevent those troubles, or'if they come
on sndtlenly to light then). No other
medicine is of such aid to mothers
during the hot summer as is Baby's
Own Tablets. They regulate the
bowels and stomach, and an occasion-
al dose given to the well child will
prevent summer complaint, or if the
trouble does come suddenly will
banish it. The Tablets are sold by
medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cts,

"HOW DO YOU DO?"
Various Greetings in Vogue Among
the Peoples of the Earth.
In most American and European
countries, when Ivo meet a friend, we
shake hands and say, "How do )'OU
do?" but in other climes the methods
of greeting vary considerably.
'When two Arabians meet one an-
other they rub their cheeks together,
while a nottve of Burma pretends to
8111e11 his friend's face, pronounces it
sweet, and bleu asks for a "smell."
The Australian natives have a greet-
ing which, if it were practised here,
we would consider very rude, They
stick their tongues out at each other,
If a Chinaman is riding, and anyone
great passes, he immediately d1s-
mounts.
Tho Hindu falls in the dust before
his superior, 11'hile the Turk crosses
his hands upon his breast, and !makes
a very low bow, thus showing his re-
gard without coining in personal con-
ed with its obfoct.
A Jap removes his sandals, crosses
is hands, and cries out, "Spare me!"
But perhaps the greeting that would

WEDDING RINGS FOR MEN.
Brazilian Women Wouldn't Swap That
Equality for Vote.
The women in Brazil have not equal
suffrage, but they have an equality
with the men of their country which 1s
not enjoyed by their North American
sisters, says a Rio de Janeiro des-
patch.
All Brazilian husbands are expected
to hear their wedding rings as con-
scientiously as their wives, and gen-
erally they do so. The ring is a plain
gold band, the same as that worn by
the wives in Canada.
The women in Brazil unanimously
are of the opinion that this is about
the last word in equality, and it is
doubtful if they would exchange the
custom for the right to go to the
polls.
LEMONS WHITEN AND
BEAUTIFY THE SKIN.
Make this beauty lotion cheaply for
your face, neck, arms and hands.
At the cost of a small jar of ordinary
cold cream ono can prepare a full quar-
ter pint of the most wonderful lemon
skin softener and complexion beauti-
fier, by squeezing the juice of two
fresh lemons into a bottle containing
three ounces of orchard white. Care
should be taken to strain the juice
through a flno cloth so no lemon pulp
gets in, then this lotion will keep
fresh for mouths. Every woman
knows that lepton Mice is used to
bleach and remove such blemishes as
freckles, sallowness and Lan and is
the ideal skin softener, whitener and
beautifier.
Just try it! Get three ounces of
orchard white at any drug store attd
two lemons from the grocer and make
up a quertex pant of this sweetly fra-
grant lemon lotion and massage it
daily into the face, neck, arms and
hands. It is marvelous to smoothen
rough, red hands.

The Uncommercial Merchant.
He was a typical street gamin and
he was so diminutive in stature that
I had to stoop to interrogate flim. Hav-

versation:
"Where do you get your papers. my

"011, I buy 'eel in The Times alley."

One that slto is fend of retailing up-

days without winding, how long will
it go if ye hind it?"
