' There' is, for example, their belief, explained in tits London Mail, that long life San somehow be attained by preparing in advance the appropriate kind of grave -clothes in which you aro eventually to be buried. Many Chinese provide their own shrouds in then' lifetime and have them cut out and sewn by an unmar- ried girl or a very young woman, for they believe that, since such a person is likely to live a great many years to Come, a port of her capacity to live long must surely pass into the clothes she works on and thus postpone foe many years the time when they shall bo put to their proper use. Among these graveclothe there is one robe in particular on which es- pecial pains have been lavished to im- bue it with the priceless quality of long life. It is a long silken gown of the deepeset blue dolor, with the word "longevity" embroidered all over it in thread of gold. To present an aged parent with one of these costly and splendid•mantlos, known as "longevity garments," is esteemed by the Chinese an act of filial piety .. and a delicate This Ls not I, this body's mold, mark of attention.

The .Browns ,lived on Maple Street; the Ca 1 runs lived on Oak Street," Though; neighbors, they had never "inet. In ,fact Mrs; Brown and Mrs. CamerQu had only seen eae1 other two. or. three times when, by ae- eident, in the course of their .house- hold duties, they happened to be' at their wi.ndowe.'at the same time and oattght.fleating glimpg'as of each other Qat: 1ong',i•ange.ge 151is. Caniei'on anti Mi's.,Browu were about" the arms age, somewhere be- tween thirty-ilve'and forty, Both had borne several 4hi1dren and they were in what is ordinarily called 'Comfort- able cireusmetanooe." They were equally intelligent but of somewhat difterent•tdmperaments. Mrs. Brown was a woman of decision, inclined to act quickly when. she had once made up her inincl, Mrs. Cameron tended to take things more easily and to put off till to -morrow what did not seem at the moment to be of importance. About five years ago Mrs, Brown, while recovering fro"m a serious ill- ness, had her attention ,drawn to a slight swelling on her left side: "It may be nothing," said the nurse. "But then again it might be something that should be 'given attention, If I were you 1 should have the doctor looir at it the next tinre'he comes in." The donor was consulted and after an examination said: 'I hate to advise an operation in such an apparently trivial ailment as this might seem to be, But then all these growths have very email begin- nings, With your permission I will ask a specialist to consult with me and we can then make up our minds." 'The consultation was held;. the re - suit was an operation and the small growth was removed. To make as - =mace doubly surethe area operated. on was treated with radium, and as the operation took place five years ago, and no further development has taken place it Hurst be concluded that the growth was either not of a seri- ous type or that it had been cured by the operation. Curiously enough, about a. year later Mrs. Cameron noticed a small lamp under her right breast, ' It seem- ed so insignificant that she promptly forgot all about it. About two months later, however, sheain notice .al ag d most subconsciously, that the .lump had not disappeared. In any ease a slight swelling appeared to be of little importance to her, for at various tines she had had swellings on her neck from swollen glands, from ulcer- ated teeth, and from bumps, but they had always disappeared In time. Why, therefore, should this particular lump cause her any anxiety? Mrs. Cameron went on with her Life as though noth- ing was amiss. The swelling did not go, down, though it did not enlarge appreciably on the surface. But, at the end of the year Mrs. Cameron was .decidedly off 'colts:. This change was so gradual that the family and her immediate friends and relatives diol not notice It, or if they did were too considerate to make any comment. She hs ,lost her color, hes' energy bad gone and it became ha- creasingly difficult to drive herself to action. Daring t1il spring following MT`s, Cameron developed influenza and her Doctor was called in. While malting the customary examination to deter- mine whether the Lungs were involved he discovered Che lump under the breast. He realized that 11 wag not small and that In all probability it was of considerable size internally. IIis first duty was to pull his patient through her attack and ire slid not say anything about the lump to Mr. Camer- on until she was well on the road to convalescence, "It may not be serious," be said, "hut I have my doubhs. We must have a consultation right away." As the result Mrs. Cameron was operated up- on -'and a large growth removed. For a time she apparently recovered and, for a few months seemed to recover a good deal of her former strength. A year aTterwards, however, she was compelled to undergo a. similar opera- tion and six months later, after a good deal' of suffering, she died, One summer evening 'Mr. 'Brown and Mr. Cssfnsron, who bad meanwhile learned to know one another, were talking over the back fence: "If she had only spoken to me or to the rector about it when she first detected that lump, alts might have been living to -day. I cannot under- stand why she didn't," said Mr. Canier- here in a little house of clay Something' isnowthat will go away.

Then when the system becomes run- down from any cause the disease again gets the upper hand and it all has to be clone over. Sufferers from rheumatism who have found their condition unrelieved or actually growing worse while using other remedies, would clo well to try Dior Williams' Pink Pills, The tonic treatment with this inediciaiti has Proved in thousands of cases that it builds up the blood to a point that en- ables it to east out the rheumatic poisons through the .regular channels, the bowels, kidneys and the skin. When this is done rheumatism is ban, ishod, and as long aa the blood is kept pure and rich the patient will be immune from attack. This is folly proved- by the case of Mr. Samuel Zinck, •Upper'Bikadford, N,S., who says: -"For a long time 1 was a great sufi'erea'' from rheumatism which set- tled in my hip and down my leg to the line. At times' the pain was so great that I could not walk. I tried" lini- ments and medicines but without get- ting more than mere temporary relief, Then one day a friend called who said that he had been afflicted with this trouble which was banished by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and urged me to try them. I did as advised and after using a few boxes there was no doubt they were helping me. Not only was the rheumatism disappearing, but my general health was improving. I con - tinned the pills until I had taken about a dozen boxes, when every traeo of the trouble had disappeared, and I have not felt a twinge of it eine. I may add that any wife used these pills Tor a run-down condition with equally good results."

Writers at Full Speed: - Famous novelists' vary very much in tllalr output during the course of a Year, and what one writer would eon sider to be a reasonable day's work would be looked upon as evidence of a regular slacktime by another. Sir James Barrie oonsiders that an average of five or six hundred words a day is a good day's work, whilst H. G. Welie has often written 1D,000 words in a clay. ' It may be imagined that speedis destructive of good quality wont, but a sufficievatly powerful retort ismade to this in the tact that Robert Louis Stevenson wrote. his ' famous' work, "Dr. Jekyll and 111x.
