"Yes," he agreed. "Perhaps, Still,

down from the apex, picking their
steps amid the tumbled sandbags,
and stooping low to avoid gaps in
the ruined parapet. The sant was -

ches. One of the officers was burly
and Middle-aged ; he clid not appear
to enjoy bending double. His com-

looked incredibly young. Once or
-twice he glanced over his shoulder,
and smiled encouragingly at his sen-

The pair emerged through the arch-
way into the mail) trench, and
straightened their backs with obvious
relief. The younger officer—he was a
lieutenant—noticed Captain Blaikfe,
saluted Mtn gravely, and turned to
follow his companion.
Captain Blaikie did not take his
hat oft, as he had promised. Instead
he stood suddenly to attention, and
saluted in return, keeping his band
uplifted until the slim, childish fig -
are had disappeared round the corner
of a traverse.

BLOOD
No more Important physiological
discovery has ever been made than
that the brain requires a due supply
of pure blood. It is estimated that
this organ receives as much as one-
tenth of all the blood that is seat
from,the heart—a great deal more
than any other organ of the body. If
the vitality of the blood is impaired,
the, blood then affords the brain an
imperfect. stimulus and,there is men-
tal and physical languor„ sluggishness
or inactivity.
Pure blood is blood that iS free
from humors, it is healthy blood, and
the term phare blood as it is general-
ly used means'blood that is not only
right in,quality but also in quantity.
Hood's Sarsaparilla makes pure,
rich, red blood, This is one of the
great truths about this -great medi-
cine.

From Whence Our Bondage
Came
'191e trade paper, American Export-
er, calls attention to the fact that
we owe the "standing collar" to a
minister—one Rev, Ebenezer Brown,
I ought to have said the blame might
be placed upon him, for the invention
of the collar hasn't been of any ad-
vantage to the world ; rather has 'it
caused more profanity than anything
else ever invented, and has served no
useful purpose whatever. But, cred-
it or blame, it goes to the reverend
gentleman mentioned by the paper.
Ebenezer Brown was a resident of
Troy, N.Y. In 1829 he opened a
store in the place, not being able to
make a living preaching, and he
made a specialty of "standing col-
lars," Iiis wife and daughter manu-
factured them, and the good man
sold them, and they became popular
and his business increased. Others,
of course, took up the work of Col-
lar -making ;l the sewing enachine
came along to give impetus to the
business—and here we are today en-
circled about the throat with a
meaningless band that either saws

discommodes. Indeed, if it, is so
large that it doesn't cause discom-
fort, it is not in style and cannot,
