Young FoRs itesesteseinsensesit Some boys who live on farms have dogs for playmates, some have pet lambs, and others are fertile - ;ate enough to have a colt, One ,oy, Roger Roekwood, has a pair •of steers, and no 'boy ever had animal playmates that gave hire :nom hap- jiiness. Their names are Broad and 33right. Bright has belonged to Roger ever slime it was a little calf, and 'blundered awkwardly across ite pen on legs that eeerned ear too long. Roger tauglab Bright to drink milk out of 0, small pail, and when it was no more than a week old, he began to lead it round the yard. When Bright was about six week° ald, Roger's father brought home another calf of about the same age, and gave it to Roger for a reale for Brighb. "If you care for them and train them," said Mr, Rockwood, "in a few years you will have a flue pair of oxen." The new calf, which Roger named Broad, was red, with a white face, just like Bright, and it eves hard to tell them apart. But Roger always knew. In a £ew weeks Roger began to harness one or the other of the pair into a little cart, just as he had often harnessed Laddie, the Scotch collie. Then Broad or Bright, as the case might be, would haul Ro- ger round the yard and up and leown the road, just as Laddie rould. Broad and Bright were four months old when Roger first yoked them together. Ib was much more of a task to make them work side by side tban it was to teach them to haul the start singly, but Roger was a patient teacher. By getting them used to the yoke, and by do- ing a little every day, he soon had them broken so that he could walk beside them and guide them with a small stick, just as his father did the old oxen. They came to like it, too. During the school vacation, Ro- ger drove them down into the woods one day, and surprised his father by the size of the load of wood that they were able to haul to the house. In the spring, when Broad and Bright were a year old, they were sent off to pasture to remain all summer. It was a long way from the house, but almost every day Roger found time to go and see Chem, They always came running to meet Min as soon as he was in sight, and usually he had some salt er apples in his pocket for them. Now that they are hack in the barn, Roger cares for 'them, and he says that in the ,fall he is going to take them to the county fair. — Youth's Companion. CHEMISTRY OF FOOD.

DISEASE IS DUE TO BAD BLOOD To Cure Common Ailments the Blood Must be Made Rich and Red. early ell the diseases that afflict humanity are eased by bad blood— weak, watery blood poaso'ned by im- purities. Bad blood is the cause of headaehes and beckaches, lumbago and rheumatism ; debility and indi- gestion, neuralgia auci other nerve troubles, and disfiguring skin die- emses like eeeema, and salt rheum show how impure the bk0f1 actually is, No use trying a different remedy for each diseese, because they all spring from the ane cause—bad blood. To cure any of these troubles you meet get right down to the root of the trouble in tee blood, and that is just what Dr. WilliamsPink Pills do. They make new, rich blood and thug cure these diseases when common medicine fails, Mrs. John Jackson, Wotoristock, Ont., suffered from bo•bh nervous troubles and a rem -down e,ondition and ex- perienced a complete cure through the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. She says: "I was a sufferer for a number of years from neteralgia and a general debility of the nerves and system. I had treed as:valve doctors and many medicines, but to no serail, until I began Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills. At the time I be- gan the Pills I had grown so bad that I could hardily be on my feet and was forced to wear eletetec band- ages bout the ankles. The pain I suffered at times from the neural- gia was terrible. I had almost given up hope when I b.egan the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Ln the course of a few weeks 1 eelt an im- provement, and I gladly continued the use of the Pills until I was once more quite well and able to attend to all my household daties." If you are ailing, begin to cure yourself to -day with Dr. WiLliame' Pink Pills.

Nothing en Brussels, and few. things in Europe, are recheir archi- tecturally than the great Market Square, with its huge Town Hall o& florid Gothic, carved to the very eaves ,with arabesques and seines, shooting heavenward with a vire that shows for miles in all direc- tions. Opposite the Town Hall is the noble G•ott,hie Old Royal Palms, now a rich museum a antiquities, and all about the square are the guild houeee which are also for the most part gilded houses, for they glitter with many square yards of gold leaf. One is surmounted by an equestrian statue of heroic e10e, which is always seemingly fresh from the gilder's eland, for every inch of horse and rider glitters with burnished gold. n -- PLEASED TO RECOMMEND BABY'S OWN ,TABLETS Mrs. Henri Bernier, Anoeline, Que., writes: "It is with pleasure that I recommend Baby's Own Tab- lets, which I have given my little ones for stomach and bowel trou- bles, constipation, loss of sleep and simple fevers.

She was both frightened and hungry. The kind-hearted photographer took her into his etudio. Then he sent out and got something for her to eat: He decided to name her Teodles. After Poodles had been fed, she explored the place and decided that she approved of 11, so she curled up and went to sleep. Not long after that, the photographer noticed that thelitt1e children who were brought to hes studio to have their pictures taken were very much interested in Poodles. That gave him an idea. He would get Poodles to help him make photographs of eltildren, He began by putting a piece of meat on tap of his camera. Poodles soon learned to jump up and get it. At the end of a year's instruction, Toodles would jump out from. behind a curtain at, the photographer's whistle, leap to the top of the cam- era, and humping up her back and fluffing up her tail, es if she were angry or frightened, would "spit" viciously at her maste,r. Whenever the playbographer, wanes to take a picture of a child, he seats the youngster in front of the, camera, and whistles,. In a, moment Toodles is on bop of the camera, going bhrough her performance, while the photographer makes believe thee he is very much frightened. Of (ionise the child rivets its eyes on the camera, where so snitch that is interesting is going on. When the proper degree of amateur:emit or amusement is expressed on the child's fate, the photographer presses the bulb, and the picture is made! When Tolociles hears the camera shutter olick, she knows that her work is done, and she leaps down and disappears behind the curtain to repose on her own private cush- ion. TRIBUTE TO T. ATKINS.

When you are telling a lie yet breathe differently from when yet are belling the truth. The differ ence was discovered by means o some teste made upon bis students by Prof. Benuesi of Graz. He prepared easels bearing let- ters, figures, and diagrams and distributed these among his pupils. These were required to describe the cards correctly, except in certain cases when the cards were marked with a red star and the students re- ceiving them were required to des- cribe them falsely. Each student was watched carefully by his fel- lows, who, ignorant of the nature of the cited, tried to judge from his manner whether he was telling the bruth or not. The watchers were unable to judge with any eerbainty. But before each man began his test the time .occupied in inspiration and expiration was measured, and the measurement was taken again immediately after 'he finished. It was found that the utterance of a false sibittement always increased, and the utterance of a true state- ment always diminished, the quo- tient obtained by dividing the time of inspiration by the time of expira- tion, Dr. Anton Rose, commenting in Die Ureschau on these results, re- marks that the disoovery furnishes a certain criterion between truth and falsehood. For even a clever Rae is likely to fail in an attempt to escape detection by breathing. ir- regularly, Prof. Benuissi having dis- covered tha,t men are unable volun- tarily to ,change their respiration 50 88 to affect the result.

She sans; "During the two years of my training as a nurse, while on light duty, I became addicted to coffee drinking. Between midnight and four in the morning, when the pa. - dents were asleep, there was little to do except make the rounds, and it was quite natural that I should want a hot cup of coffee about that time. I could keep awake better. "After three or four years of cof- fee drinking 1 became a nervous wreck and thought that 1 simply could not live witho.ut my coffeie.

This tfact has just been dis- covered by Prof. P. W. Britigrea,n, oe karvesd University. First there is the common ice which is water frozen at ordinary atmospheric pros - sore and at from 0 degrees 0 to —10 degrees C. This Prof. Bridg- man calls ice I. It is from 10 to 13.5 per cent. less dense than water. If this be placed under a pres- sure of about 1,000 kilograms the ice smelts to water. 1.1 the pressure be increasedto be about 4,400 kilo- grams and the temperature be maintained about the same the li- quid water freezes again to another kind 01 ice, celled ice V., which is about 6 per cent, denser than wa- ter, Increasing the pressure to about 6,500 kilograms, we get ice IV., the volumic pressure and the density becoming from 5 to 9 per cent. greater than water. If we :freeze water at atmospheric pressure, but with a temperature of —30 degrees 0, ordinary ice (ioe I.) is changed to ice 111., which is, on the average 3 per cene. denser than water and 20 per cent. denser than ice I. Further increasing the pressure, ice III. turns into ice II., whiehns about 22 per cent, denser than ice I. On further inereasiug in pressure ice 11. changes to ice V. and then to ice IV. Sometimes these changes take place so quickly that a click is heard. The lower the temperature the more slowly 10 the change effect- ed, This discovery bas a practical ap- plication. When water freezes in a closed vessel immense pressure is developed. The bursting of boilers and water pipes is a familiar exam- ple of this. The water expands in freezing to ice II. ; but if the pres- sure on the ice during freezing ex- ceeds about 2,000 kilograms, corres- ponding to 30,000 pounds per square ice III, is formed. As this is about 3 per cent, denser than wa- ter and has less volume, it shrinks rather than enpands. An interesting sidelight on this is the discovery that if the pressure be greet enough the temperature may be raised far beyond the nor- mal freezing point and still the wa- ter will freeze. "By the applies - din of a pressure of about 20,000 kilograms," says Prof, Bridgman, "we may freeze water, although it is nearly boiling hot.' Witeli Torture in Alaska.

My stomach kept sour, and always after eating there was pain and fulness, and all the symptoms or intestinal Indi- gestion. Nothing helped me until I used Dr. Hamilton's Pills. Instead of hurting, like other pills, they acted very mildly, and seemed to heal the bowels. I did not require large doses to get results with Dr. Hamilton's Pills, and feel so glad that I have found a mild yet certain remedy. To -day I am well—no pain, no sour stomach, a good appetite, able to digest anything.
