Sanford (Salvation Army), 38Rarlscourt Ave., Toronto,Ont., writes: "A short time ago I suffered from heart trouble, which seemed to come on me very suddenly. I was so bad, that at times it seemed as if it was all I could do to breathe. I noticed an announce- ment of Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills, and decided to give them a trial. After taking two or three clays'treat- ment I felt fine, and my heart has not bothered me since. If this testimony would be of any service to others you are at liberty to use it." 'To all who suffer from any form of heart trouble Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills will give prompt and permanent relief. They strengthen and,invigorate the action of the heart, and tone up the whole sys- tem. Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills are .50 cents per box, or 3 boxes for $1.25.

"It was all cut an' dried weeks ago, an' she 'asn't rued of 'er bargain yet. as far as 1 can make out." "You mean that ,,,the marriage was arranged before the Andromeda sail- ed?" said Dom Corria gently. "W'y, of course, It couldn't very web be fixed after, could it?" "No --not as between you and her.

Then downright Lancashire took ,hold of the argument. "Look 'ere! Wot are you drivin' at?" demanded Dickey, now in a white heat of anger. fie bad yet to Learn tbat the president preferred a straight- forward way of talking.

What other woman would have consented to be separated from her friends on Fernando Noronha merely because it increased their meager chances of safety? How few women, loving a' man like Philip Dozier, wait is assured of a splendid reward for his services to this State, would resolutely deny the claims of her own heart in order to keep her word?" Bulmer had never heard any one speak with the crystal directness of Dom Corrin. Each word chipped away some part of the fence which he had deliberately erected around his own intelligence. Certain facts had found crevices in the barrier already. Dom Corria broke down whole set- tees. But be was a hard man. and stubborn, end bas heart was set on Iris. "You are mighty sure she is wrap- ped up in this young spark?" he growled. "Were I not i would not have inter- fered. Take my advice. First ask yourself an honest question, then ask the girl, She will answer, I promise you that." "I'm a rich man," persisted Dickey. "Yes." "Nobody forced 'er one way or the tither." "Possibly.

Such, at least, is the present Position of the more : rogreseive of the medical fraternity. 'l'he old superstition which forbids water at nasal -thus passes, Itwas a superstition which had much show of reason, to be sure. It seemed quite evident that the •drinking of water with meals unduly diluted the food and so hindered': the mastication and insallvation that are 'essential. to Its proper preparation for the stomach. The doctors seemed correct in stat- ing that water, when introduced into the stomach with food, diluted tate gastric and other digestive juices, so essential to the digestive process, and so very materially interfered with assimilation, It was 'confidently stated, too, that a quantity of water in the stomach actually flushed that organ, ano that the food was thus carried On into tine intestines before the digestive changes that should be brought about had been satir•factorily inaugurated. Bet. re Science Intervened On these grounds, to which tate lay- man could not demur, we were con- demned to thirst at mealtime by the edict of our physicians, although it is pretty safe to sal that the majority of us, heeded the voice of appetite - just as the doci:ois did in practice. All thls was before science load en. abled men to actually see the diges- tive mechanism at work or to ap,pre• bend the delicate chemistry of the pro - ceases involved. It now develops Haat, in so' far as the digestive process is concerned, the principal effect of water is to greatly stimrlate the flow of V.'s? essential fluid, the gastric juice. No other agent in our food coos this so quickly or as effectually. Mora significant stili, the gastric juice ams i ac.etc-d has a higher conemtration of acid than that produced pre'•r,us to .the introduction of tile. water. That is to say, water is quite t,ssen- tial to the free pre duclton of tate most important of the -e-agentswhish na- ture uses in tzaz forming food foto life. _. _. hat'en't trio heart to do it wit he comes home.
