"What are you going to clo with the money I" Caspar's eyes shone, "I have wanted to have art electrie fan, yoa know, like the one father has in his office." . "But, Caspar," said Mrs. Locke, "why should you want it? Your father works in the hot city, and he need e his, Your windows over- look cool, deep Lake Ontario, and yell have lake breezes all day and all night. Why, my dear boy, I can think of ever so many things that would give you greater pleas- ure than an electric fan." "Well, it isn't only for the breeze that I want it," argued Caspar. tlust imagine the fun of seeing it 'whiz round, and of hearing it purr oftly, like a kitten I" "Think it over carefully, dear," said Mrs. Locke. "I have just come from Galt Court and lititia Nic." "Is he any better 7" asked Cas- par, anxiously. "No," said Mrs. Locke. "He might grow stronger if only he could have fresh air. But that seems impossible in Galt Court, where the sun beats clown upon the roof of the top tenement where he lies. You saw him yesterday. You (know how weak and worn he is." Caspar went out and cat a long time by the lake. He was saying to himself, "No, I can't do it 1 1 know I arn selfish; I have tonged and longed for the fan, and now I mean to have it for my own. No— I can't give it up 1 I shall go down- s- town with father the first thing in the morning, and bring it home at noon." That night the city seemed breathless. Caspar went to bed early, and he dreamed that he was little Nit) Ceroni. He tossed from side to side on his hot mattress; the air was stifling. Everywhere voices teemed gathering, rising, calling '"Where is the Lan l Where is the lour And this dream faded into an- other. He dreamed that he had bought the electric fan, and that it was in his room, just over his bed; breeze upon breeze swept over him, making everything sweet and refreshing, giving Mai a delicious feeling of chill. And one voice over the be.d seemed to purr : "I am the fan I I am the fan I" 'And Caspar whispered back, "I al- ways knew that'you would bo won- derful I" He awoke. All was very dark 'where he lay. Cool air was blow- ing softly through the room; but nothing stirred above the bed. 'And then he realized that it had been, not the fan, but the great, cool lake, which had sent him its fresh- neas. At the breakfast -table in the morning Caspar was quiet and thoughtful. When Mr, Locke was ready to go into town, he called out, "Come, Caspar, boy Have you forgotten your trip with me 7' Caspar ran for his hat, and soon they were off. It was almost one o'clock, when Mrs. Locke looked out of the win- dow. "How late he is!" she thought. "He should have -been :back an hour ago I" She went to the door, and stepped cut into the path. In the distance she saw her little son hurrying homeward. She expected to see him carrying a package, but he was empty-hand- ed. She walked to meet him. "Why, 1 was growing anxious about you," she said. "What kept you so longl And where is your package 7 Didn't you buy the fan V' "Yes, I bought it," came Cas - par's reply. "But I stopped en the way home to take ib to Nie °ere:al.

SECRET OF HEALTH To 'Be Healthy You Must Keep the Blom Lich, Reil awl Pure Dr, Williams' Pink 'Pills are use- ful in any disease caused by thin or impure blood, and the Iist of such diseases is astonishingly large, Anaemia literally moans a caudi- tion in which the blood is thin and watery. Chlorosis is a form of anaemia most common to growing girls, In rheumatism the blood be- comes thin more rapidly than in any other disease. After an attack of la grippe or acute feven the blood is always thin and impure, and Dr, Williams' Pink Pills are' the toni to nee during convaless eenee, When the blood is poor and thin the stomach suffers. The food ferments' gas and eertail acids form andthe tremble is pronounced indigestion or dyspepsia. The nerves receive from the blood all of their nourishment to keep up their energy and repair waste or damage. Some forma of paralysis are caused by thin blood. The pro- gress of locomotor ataxia is stopped in many cases when the blood is made pure, rich and red. This is only a partial list of the troubles having their origin in' impure, watery blood, and all can be cured by supplying the blood with its missing constituents. This is exactly what Dr. wh Hams' Pink Pills de. Their chief mission is to make rich, red blood, and this good blood reaches every organ and every nerve in the hu- ma•n body, thus driving out disease and bringing renewed health and strength to thousands of 'weak, de- spondent people. Ask your neighbors. There is not an inhabited corner in Canada where Dr. Williams' Pink- Pills have not restored some sufferer, and aLI over this country there are grateful people who do not hesitate to say they owe health—in some cases life itself—to this great medi- cine. If yon are ailing begin to ours yourself to -clay by using Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.

The railway ticket collector in England put his head in at the car- riage door and addressed "bile jolly individual inside. "Tickets, please," he said. The smiling one looked at him with alcoholic sadness. "Got no ticket (hie); don't bo- ther me," he said, settling down again. The oolleetor at once produced his receipt book and after consult- ing a table of fares, exclaimed: "Five and six, please." "What's thatl" queried the mer- ry, one. "Five and six, please," repeated the collector. The other thought a moment and looking up said: 'Eleven." I Safe Ifiding-Place. A parson who paid more littera tion to the pleasures of life than to his sermons, was taken to task for his worldliness by a Quaker friend, The rebuke was none the less effective for being tactful. "Friend," said the Quaker, "I understand thee's clever at fox - catching." "I have few equals and no superi- ors at that sport," the parson re- plied, complacently. "Nevertheless, friend," said the Quaker, "if I were a fox, I would hide where thee would never find Me. "Where would you hide?" asked the parson, with a frown. "Friend," said the 91)selipr, "I would hide in thy stud • CRIED NIGHT AND DAY. • Mrs. Adeltire Ouillette, St. Bruno, Que., says : "My little boy cried night and day from stomach trouble and nothing seemed to help him till I get a, box of Baby's Own Tablets, .They soon made him well and happy again.

Origin of Many Ghost Stories and Superstitions, Many superstitions and ghoet stor- les are due to nightmare, says Dr. Waller R. Hadwen in the London Cere- monial Review, The nighttnare, he says, would appear "to attack men much more than women, and to be a malady rather .of early adult life than one of later years, Judging by the signs and symptoms, we may con- clude that quite young ehildren suffer from it at time, and that it is largely responsible for the "bogey man" who startles them in the darkness of the nigh t. The malady can boast of quite a respectable antiquity, It was fully un- derlatood and accurately -described by both Greeks and Romans of ancient days, and several well written treat- ises upon the subject have come down to ua from the seventeenth century. Coitus Aurelanus, who lived In the first century, tells us upon the author. Sty of Silimachus, a follower of Hip- pocrates, who lived 600 years before Christ, that this disorder was once epidemic at Rome, and that a great number of persons in the city died of it It went by the name of "in- cubus," The illusory being which seems to settle on one's chest has In all ages and in every country of the world been called a demon or evil spirit, and has been held responaible for many an uncanny episode, both In ancient and modern times. Probably the ghuls and jine of all the African races, which are believed to hover every- where in the darkness, and of which even the strongest and stoutest war- riors are terrified, have their origin in nightmare. Nightmare, 1)r. Hadwen says, is cer- tainly quite different from a dream. Nightmare is neither sleeping nor wak- ing, but it is a condition between the two, a kind of semi -consciousness. Men, the chief sufferers, are usually literary characters or those accue- tomed to Indoor life. And coarse and unwholesome diet has often appeared to be the precursor of this strange malady. Discussing preventives of night- mare, Dr, Hadwen says that sufferers must be determined to avoid every article of food and drink which they find by experience they cannot digest. If there le the possibility of night- mare supervening they should take a draught of hot peppermint water in which half a teaspoonful of bicarbon- ate of soda has been dissolved just before going to bed. It will probably keep ghosts at a distance, and will guard against further increase of haunted rooms. Had Pains in Back, Side, and Chest , . Suffered for Weeks But Finally Found a Quick, gave Relief. Cured Quickly by "Nerviline." No stronger proof of the wonderful merit of Nerviline could be produced than the letter of Miss Lucy Mosher, who for years has been a 'well-known resident of Windsor, N.S. "I want to add my unsolicited testi- mony to the efficacy of your wonderful liniment, 'Nerviline.' I conaider it the best remedy' for a cold, sore throat, wheezing tightness in the chest, etc and can state that for year our home has never been without Nerviline. I had a dreadful attack of cold, that settled on my chest that fourteen dif- ferent remedies couldn't break up. I rubbed on Nerviline three times a day, used Nerviline as a' gargle, and was completely restored. I have in- duced dozens of my friends to use Nerviline, and they are all delighted with its wonderful power over pain and sickness. "You 'are at liberty to publish this signed letter, whioh I hope will show the way to health to many that need to use Nerviline. (Signed) "LUCY 11109111OR."

It is strange that England, so much despised as the home of demo- cracy by full-blooded autocrats, is generally their home when local demooraoy gets tired of them.

A new blightproof and frost re- sisting potato has been discovered by John Harris of Rasethi, New Zealand. The discovery is said to be the most important one in agri- culture for many years, and the Agricultural Department of the New Zealand Government has in- vestigated the phenomenon and ad- mitted that the properties claimed for the new potato are beyond mr.Barris, has been experiment- ing with potatoes for years, and some time ago he noticed a healthy stalk growing among a crop of Northern Stars and El Dorados, all of which were affected by blight, He took up the root of the healthy plant, and finding ib in a perfect state began to experiment. The re- sult is that a potato now called the New Era has been. grewn. The plant was carefully nourished, and tended, and for several seasons a new crop was propagated from the seeds of the previous crop. The variety has been placed'under the closest observation, but on no occa- sion has there been the slightest trace of blight or disease caused by frost, though the trap planted next to it has been ,biackened by severe cold and is even now badly affected. Wealth may be either a blessing or a cause, according to the east made of it. Riohes only bring hap - piens to people when they use them for the good of others. When they are accumulated for the grati- Bastion of avarice, or are used for obtaining personal aggrandisement, respect, adulation, or fame, they are very badly applied, and may be a curse to a man.
