Fats and salts speak for themselves. But it flag recently been discovered that.there 18 a great deal more in the constituents of these various classes of food than meets the eye or ticklees the 'palate. It is now quite obvious that complete nutrition' does not de- pend only on such -food elements as 1 have just mentioned. A dint contain: ing sufficient quantities of all the above-mentioned nutritive substances is now found to be 'deficient if it is lacking in certain hitherto unknown and rattler mysterious compounds, one kind of which we call vitamines, It Is only recently that these vita - mines have been isolated in a crystal- line form from certain constituents of familiar foods, in which they are pre- sent in very small amounts. It is be- lieved now that this so-called vitamine is only one of several as yet undis- covered compodnds necessary for cffnl- plete nutrition. Everybody is, of course, aware that all animals, vegetables, fruits, or•other living organisms, eatable and uneat- able, contain either life-giving or death -dealing elements. Take, for in- stance, the common or garden bean; that supplies us with a vitamine or life-giving compound. On the other hand, there is the East Indian bean, which yields us the deadly poison strychnine: As far removed front 'each other as the Poles are the vivifying pine -apple and ,the poisonous Poppy. And so ou throughout the entire range of the For Winter Days J POOR THIN BLOOD BRINGS INDIGESTION Make the Blood Rich cnld Red by Using Dr. Williams' Pink PiJis Thin -blooded people generally have stomach trouble. They seldom recog- nize the fact that thin blood is the cause of indigestion, but it is. Thin blood, weak, watery blood, is one of the most common causes of stomach trouble. ./the glands that furnish the digestive fluids: are diminished In their activity, the stomach muscles are weakened and there is a loss of 9m' nerve force. In this state nothing will more quickly restore appetite, diges- tion and a normal nutrition than good, rich, red blood. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills act directly on the blood, making it rich and red, and this enriched. blood strengthens weak nerves,lstimulates tired muscles, and awakens to normal activity the glands that supply the digestive fluids. else ni.,a 9111 The first sign of returning health is No. 9131—Ladies' Coat.

They aro accumulated in a men who had dropped in ander the relatively greater amount in some animal and vegetable stuffs, such as yeasts, the outer covering of rice, bar- ley, wheat, etc., the brain, the heart, and the eggs of mammals and birds. The striking curative and disease -pre- venting qualities of these foodstuffs are due to this circumstance. The richness of the raw. egg in vita - mines explains its place as the great "stand-by" in the sick -room, in cases where human vitality has sunk to a low ebb: and in this category may be placed also fresh milk and live oys- ters. These, not quite fully understood, life-giving compounds are believed to act upon the processes of nutrition. Their absence` or scarcity seems to interfere with the complicated pro- cesses of tissue -change, with the wear - and -tear and upkeep of the bodily structure. It used to be believed that scurvy, at one time the curse of the Navy, was smply due to the eating of consider- able quantities of "salt junk." But it was npt so much the presence of so much salt in the dietary as the total absence of fresh vegetables that was the essential cause of the disease. The introduction of limo -juice put an end to these outbreaks of scurvy. It is only to -day that we know that the curative value of fresh vegetables and fruit juice is due to the vitamines they contain. • Again, beriberi is a disease attend- ed by great wasting of the body, con- tracted by those who live largely on rice which has been deprived of its outer coating, 1.e,, polished rico, This polished rice has been deprived of its vitamine coat, and thus becomes a death -dealing food. It is important to note that vita - mines are easily destroyed by long storage, long heating and cooking. Bence the importance, in any dietary, of fresh, uncooked vegetables, fruits, etc. Recent experiments tend to ,de- monstrate that animal fats are .much ric=her in vitamines than vegetable fats.

It isn't. He was a little ashamed to fuss abeet the prices, so he fussed about everything else. But at last he departed, and serene Jane per- mitted herself a weary smile. "You have to set along with all kinds, don't, you?" remarked a patron. "Indeed, yes," said Jane. '•"I served a ghost yesterday morning. An old gentleman came in quite early, for breakfast. He was beauti- fully dressed; I think he was one of the hotel guests; at least he came in that entrance. He chose a stool and when somebody tried to sit beside him, he said, "Pardon me, but can't you see that seatis taken?" He or- dered toast, soft boiled eggs and cof- fee. Then he turned to the vitcant stool and asked, "What would you like, my dear?' "I3e paused as if for an answer. Ap- parently he heard one, for he said to me with a smile, as if amused at the notion, 'A piece of pie and a cup of milk and some rolls.' "There wasn't any pie at that hour and so he ordered sliced peaches. I brought all the things and arranged them as if for two. By that time people wore moving away from him. Ire buttered the rolls at the 'vacant place before he ate a bite himself. Then he made his own breakfast. I thought there ,night be a scene about the two checks, but no. He added them up aloud and correctly: counted out the change in his hand: left a tip in front of each plate and then asked for a paper sack. In it he put an unbroken roll. Then he paid the cashier and went out, They found the paper bag with the roll in it outside on the steps." "Could you make out whether he thought he was talking to a man or a woman?" asked the patron. "I thought it was . a little child," said Jane softly. "I3e always looked down when he spoke to it, and he but- tered the rolls, and the pie order for breakfast was childish, too = I thought,' and Jane's eyes seemed a little misty.

The geniuses of the world have been the creators—the origina- tors. It is bettor to die with one original great thought to your credit than to live in the midst of reflected glory. The miasma of delusion is fatal to individuality^fatal to originality. If you think you are like somebody else instead of yourself you are lost in an impenetrable swamp. If you go ,through life trying to ape somebody else you never will be what God In- tended you to be. Be thyself and observe how you will grow and be content. Be thyself and make the most of what God has given you. It is more valuable than the counterfeit of imitation. An ounce of originality is worth more than tone of imitation. A mental crutch is worse than a physeal crutch. Parents make a fatal mistake in not permitting their children to be them- selves—children. A child knows noth- ing of deceit or delusion until its in- divduality is dwarfed by repression and an over -supply of "don'ts." Child- ren who are permitted to be just child- ren—to be themselves—make the best and purest men and women. Amid the trials and sorrows of later life they remain little children in their hearts and• thus are nearer the throne."" In illustrating her method a kindergar-. ten teacher once gave a class of learned and scholarly men the most Profound lesson of their lives by tell- ing them they must be themselves— like little children. Those who are forever Imitating others and never are themselves are losing their own souls—not allowing a genuine, true' expression of their own 'spirit. Nervous oxhaustion and depression result from trying to pass for something different from what you are, Tho Almighty intended that each. man should be himself, each woman herself and each child itself. The world was not planned for duplicity, Nature never: imitates. One flower does not deceive itself that it is any other kind of a Rower, One animal does not deceive; itself that it can imi- tate' any other animal. Nothing disintegrates personality so rapidly as this effort to be a counter - felt. ,,It creates a false nervous energy, a constant fear of discovery and a final revelation that is deadly, ""Thou shalt not be found opt" is the commandment upon which the fool builds his earthly structure. Be thyself. It means contentment. It,assure8 self -respect --the only road to the respect of others. It leads to confidence ,and power. Be thyself. In those two words dwell the philoso- phy that spells, happir ass and peace. • The Singing Fire. The Fire's, singing the song you knew.

Locomotives 'would' not be able to pull their loads, especially on wet or slippery rails, unless' the large wheels were "coupled" by side -rods. The pulling Power of a locomotive depends on its "adhesion"—that is, the weight that comes on the driving - wheels, and makes them grip the rails. By coupling two or more pairs of wheels together, the force -of the cylinders is caused to 'revolve them all in unison, and much more of the weight of the locomotive is utilized for adhesion. That is why engines for heavy goods have often eight coupled wheels, and sometimes twelve. I was cured of terrible lumbago by MINARD'S LINIMENT. REV. WM.
