OF RHEUMATISM
The Great Suffering of a Cal-
gary Lady Before Relief
Was Found
There is still a very preval
that rheumatism is due to ch
weather. This belief is 'prob
to the fact that when the blo
and watery there is an ecu
tiveness to atmospheric c
and a change to wet weath
means a return of the 'elm
palm:. Rheumatism, however, is root-
ed in the blood, and it cart only be
striven from the system by building
up and enriching the blood. Hot baths
and outward applications of liniment
may give temporary relief, but can-
not care. If the disease is not attack-
ed through the blood, it simply fas-
tens itself more firmly on the sys-
tem, and the sufferer ultimately be-
comes hopelessly crippled. The truth
of this is proved by the case of Mrs.
Prank Ford, of Calgary, AIM. Mrs,
Ford says; "I was an almost help-
less cripple from rheumatism. It
seemed to have settled in every joint.
My arms and hands had to be band-
aged. My ankles were so swollen that
I had to use crutches. ,After doctor-
ing for a long time and growing
steadily wormy, the cloctar advised
me to go to Bala? Springs. I stayed
there for eight weeks taking daily
, baths and returned home poorer in
pocket by about $150 and not one bit
improved in health. I then entered a
local hospital, but did not derive any
benefit. I was in such constant pain
that I almost wished to die, and I felt
sure I would be a lifelong cripple. It
was at this stage that a friend who
had been greatly benefitted by Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills urged me to try
them. I began the use of the Pills
and after taking thern a few weeks
the swelling in the joints began to go
down and the pain was relieved. This
greatly encouraged me and I contin-
ued the treatment until in the course
of three months the cure was com-
plete. I had thrown away the crutch-
es, could walk anywhere and do my
own housework, and I never felt bet-
ter in my life than I do at present
time, and all this is due to the use of
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I have also
given the Pills to my daughter who
suffered from anaemia and she has
gained in flesh and become a strong,
healthy girl."
If you are suffering from rheumat-
ism or any weakness of the blood give
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a fair trial
and they will speedily restore you to
health and strength. Sold by all

BULLET-PROOF GARMENTS.
Steel Head and Chest Guards Save
Soldiers.
The military chiefs of the great na-
tions entered the war a year ago with
the settled conviction that any form
of protection for the .soldier's b
against the missiles of elestrue
would be vain and valueless. It
not long, however, before the Ger
soldier, who had received a forage
to do his fighting in, was clamoe
for his patent leather helmet, sp
and all. The very practical Fre
soldier began wearing at times
lightweight metal vessel that we
fit his head. On both sides, but oh
ly on that of the Germans, spa
chest protectors were being' worn
In European countries where mili-
tary Conscription is in force inventors
for years have been working on bul-
let-proof garment, While in America
a certain type of inventor devotes his
time to producing a perpetual motion
device, in Europe the sanie type works
on an impenetrable waistcoat and
becomes the butt of all the jokesmiths.
In the early days of the war it was
found that soldiers received an ex-
ceptionally high percentage of head
wounds and the French war autho
ties took official cognizance of t
fact. But while they were studyi
the matter the French soldier a,

It served to weaken the blow of pro-
jectiles, and was even mate efficient

high explosive fragments which came
over the trench parapet almost spent

WHITE WYANDOTTE FAULTS.
. --
'By A. P. Marshall, Niagara Falls,
Canada.
Perhaps it is most unusual to point
out the faults in any article we wish
to exploit or show te be superior
a the most success comes to he who
is able fully to grasp the out -cropping
faults and being always alert to re-
cognize them and their evident cause
is best able to keep them corrected to
a large extent. Only by knowing the
recurring faults can the breeder ex-
pect to make progress or even keep up
to the high standard now existing.
In our standard only perfection is
depicted having the result very fre-
quently to the inexperienced of caus-
ing slight faults that are not particu-
larly serious to condemn specimens
for breeding because they do not mea-
sure up to some point that is particu-
larly noticeable. Generally speaking
it may be safe to say that faults com-
mon in good flocks are the hardest to
combat, although as points of quality
they are usually not as serious as
other points. .
If anyone should ask us what we
considered the worst fault to have in
a White Wyandotte, we would im-
mediately say poor shape. This if we
are careless will cause the flock in a
remarkably short time to become any-
thing but wyandotte and if we wish
all the good the breed possesses Ito
better plan can be followed than to
keep it true to the Wyandotte shape
that has proven such a valuable asset.
When we notice males going high
on the legs or females getting Jong
and- angular with narrow illshiped
breasts, a halt must be called on the
methods followed or our flock will lose
all the good qualities of the breed. A
start with good stock of the best
breeding lines and even selection of
the most vigorous will not bring best
results. It is absolutely necessary to
keep standard shape in mind and
make selections accordingly. While the
closest records are a very big help,
excellent record can be made mentally
by the watchful breeder that will en-
able him to observe cause and effect
in very many cases in a very definite
way.
Many breeders fail because they
seem unable to be guided by their own
good judgement, following oftentimes
istead the advice on experience of an-
other instead of what personal ob-
servation shows conclusively to be
right for them. It is a poor man who
cannot learn from others but the man
who gets furthest can supplement this
with self -obtained knowledge and ag-
gressive persistence. Wyandotte as
pointed out have an inclination to get
high on legs particularly in the males
and females will lengthen out and lose
their depth rapidly with careless
breeding. Straight lines will become
general instead of rounded lines and
ody , most watchful observance should be
tient given the matings to prevent the loss
was of what has made the wyandotte fore -
Man most in the poultry field.
cap j Next on account of its hidden dif-
ingificulties to the novice, we would place
ike in a -general way the matter of color.
nth !Here We have a side of breeding
anY l White Wyandottes that has discour-
uld; aged many an enthusiast because of
ief-Ithe recurring tendency to revert to
cial faults existing in earlier generations.
Brassiness has become almost a thing
of the past consequently giving the
impression to many that color trou-
131es are practically eliminated. On
the contrary some of the very whitest
birds will go to black specks and
marks in the plumage, especially in
the hackle and saddle and since these
birds invariably are absolutely stay -
white there has been a tendency to
reproduce the fault. That a good deal
of small black specks can get by with -
oat its being noticed is well known to
ri- all good breeders and if mating up, if
he this is to be eliminated, the very close -
ng I est attention must be given it, ,.No
as , doubt a great many birds are made to
ed pass the judge and win out by pulling
e-
ly
ns
in
ts
metal head protectors. These cost
only 7 cents each, but they allows
the canteen lid to go back to its pris
tine employment and they served fin
a valuable experiment A record was
kept, and it was found that this new
headgear was successful in sixty cases
• out of one hundred.
Recent photographs from the front
of soldiers/in action have showed some
French soldiers with breast protect-
ors. The Germans also are wearing
them to a considerable extent, and it
is understood that the hostility of
the authorities to them doesfnot now
exist.
a few of these feathers but to fix the
strain so as to measure up without
such trimming is the larger accom-
plishment.
Vigorous sepcimens frequently are
snappy in the quill of the feather un-
til these dry out when they settle in-
to a real white, A few birds will al-
ways come through as white as snow
at all times. These are the most val-
uable and when right in all other
ways will be the biggest help in fixing
the peeper color.
There seems to be no difficulty in
securing good yellow leas and beak,
althougt excepaionally white birds
, sometimes have a tendency to have
Slightly paler Mg& Extra heavy lay-
ers, or after laying for some time,
• will usually pale in the color of legs
and beak but with the moult and re-
turn to conditian usually they will
have a good strong color again. Grase
run and improved conditions will al-
ways help here. •
Cambs are always • first to be no-
ticed and particularly so with the no-
vice. A good head takes the fancy of
nine out of ten regardless of other
, s
qualifications. Perhaps the most glar- h
ing fault is the tendency in some
specimens to throw single combs, In v
the best strains this occurs yea
p very
seldom and yet we have seen matings
that were predominant in single
combs. Hollowness in the crown of
the comb is, however, much more com-
mon fault, and if not watched will
become more marked. Absence of
spike, side sprigs, and spikes sunkeh
into the comb occur to the annoyance
of the breeder, for many a time such
a marked fault will show up on a
specimen otherwise of very exception-
al merit, to make it fit only as breed-
er, and then care must be taken to
guide the matings so as to avoid re-
currence or intensifying of the same
trouble.
Even yet, stubs or baby feathers
will appear between the toes oc-
casionally, and once in a while run
im on the shank of the leg. Until the
breeder Stops using birds that have
this fault will it continue to show
Rubber Sheets for Ships.
The loss of the Lusitania, draws at-
tention once, again to the possibility
of rubber as a sheathing or lining for
the hulls of ships to avert or mini-
mize a catastrophe such as that which
then occurred. A good deal of re-
search is understood to have taken
place more or less on these lines, and
the granting of patents for appaaent-
ly hopeful devices has been mentioned,
from time to time. Experiments have
shown conclusively that rubber is al-
most invulnerable to explosive attacks,
and the application of the principle to
shipping does not seem to present in-

ous and excellent specimens are con-
tinued to be used with this fault. Con-

Is sure to overcome the trouble.
In Spite of the many suggestions
above of alifficulties in the breeding
of White Wyandottes, the progress in
the hands of most intelligent breeders
has been very, znarked to that the
breed is conceded to be one of those
bred nearest to perfection of the
standard. With such a start the
number of good, specimens obtained
and the all-round market value they
have afford something that explains
the present exceptional popularity of
the White Wyandotte.

Blacque in Berlin and Vienna. Her

it is stated, as the war was looming

and bridegroom left England through
fear of encountering the misfortunes
of the "aliens." Miss Kathleen had,
of course, become a subject of the

German Women Warned Against
Wearing Wide Skirts,
The German Government now is
censoring women's dresses. A semi-
official warning has been issued di-
rected mainly against, wide skirts, be-
cause of the waste of material.
The women of Germany, the warn -
'lug says, should free themselves from
all foreign styles, but should not do
this at the expense of material. At
the moment when all the resources of
Germany should be husbanded most
carefully the women should not adopt
new models, such as wide skirts that
will increase the use of goods.
Narrow skirts were good in peace
times and patriotic women should be
much more satisfied with them in war
times, it is added,

LIFE AT THE DARDANE.
catch Soldier Gives Wonder
Picture of Fighting.
The following description 0
life at the/ Dardanelles was
by a soldier, aged 21, to his
in Scotland: -
The chatter of the trenches
werfully cheerful; a mail from home
football, racing, reminiscences of fes-
tive occasions, and little happenings
of the fight are all occasions for
cheery banter. Then, of course,
there is the groueing-not bitter, but
all as a part of the day's work. For
the eye, all around the blue -grey
muddy trench bank, sun-dried and
parched, occasional glimpses of dusty
plane trees, old Achi Baba's wicked
top. And the men, some on lookout
duty at periscopes and rifles ready
for every offering target; others
cleaning their rifles, mending their
clothes, reading books, cooking, smok-
ing, or eating. A queer, narrow life,
but full of quiet interests. The sun
blazes overhead, the guns boom, the
shells scream and burst, the rifles
crackle and the bullets whistle, and
the silly drama of war goes on while
good men die. Stretcher parties
make their way along the narrow
path with their sorry burdens, voices
are hushed, for a pal is badly hit. Ohl
the pity of it all.
All but the lookouts asleep, sp- rawl-
ing in the dust in attitudes of deep
fatigue. Very little smoking, hushed
voices, queer shadows, and the red
flash of rifles. Such is the night
picture. Officers and working parties
,move stealthily about, picking their
Way among the sleeping figures, as
considerate as possible, but some-
times evoking from somnolent 'human-
ity an outburst of unexpected
trenchese. Suddenly up goes a flare,
and all the queer picture becomes
more queer in the varied chiaroseura
of intense localized light. It's only
another 'view of the inhuman picture
of fighting humanity, killing and
being killed, for what? Alas for
what?
