William Harris, who for a quar- ter of a century in London (Eng- land) bore the title of "The Saus- age King," is dead. He had nearly completed his seventh decade; he could neither read nor write, and never wanted to, and yet he amassed what is expected to prove, when his will is made known, one of the largest fortunes ever reacle, by any tradesman in London. It was in 1887 he proclaimed him- self king of the sausage world, and when Punch caricatured him and Judy followed suit, none dared dis- pute his title. To ensure his name in full for posterity the "sausage king" chris- tened all his sons William, and to distinguish them they were num- bered one, two, three. His daugh- ters, in the same way, were, all named Elizabeth. In 1887 he, was summoned for not sending "his son William" to school. He promptly took all three before the magistrate and asked which one they meant. The School Board Officer was puzzled, but it developed it was the eldest whose education was being neglected. CHARGED IT TO ADVERTISING The father explained that he was teaching his sons his business, and he thought it would be of more use to them than going to school. He was fined half a dollar, but he con- sidered that the advertisement he obtained was worth $100,000. In his own particular line be was looked upon as a pioneer in adver- tising. He would remunerate gen- erously any artist who drew or painted a novel pig poster. A pig 'winning the Derby with Harris, sr., on the pig decorated all his earts, and some of his shop signs. Outside another shop he had a big oil painting of his sons, the three Williams, and a huge gilt figure of a pig adorned the, iron gates of his house at Clapham. On one occasion, when in his shop at Brighton, a hungry man dashed ixt 'and caught up a long string of ages, but he....was caught. ''AMATEUR DOES WELL." '"Don't lock him up," said Har- ris, who saw the starving man. "You want a good sausage meal, don't you? Well, then, you have got to ,eat them against me in the window." Both got into the window, ,and before, a large crowd ate sausages as fast as they were cooked ; but although the man wasstarving, Mr. Harris beat him by six sausages. "I won't lock you up," said the sausage king. "You have done very well for an amateur." When the I3ritish fleet was at Southend and a friend remarked ow well the bluejackets looked, r. Harris replied, "They ought o; they have had two toms of my ausages." .11E QUEEN'S EXAMPLE FELT. nglish Society Girls Turn to Do- mestic Science.

ALL CO1E FIWII TUB SATIE CAUSE WHY DODD'S KIDNEY PILLS CURE MME. DUFAULT'S ILLS. She Had Diabetes, Sciatica, Back- ache and Meadashe, but Found Speedy Relief in the•Great Cana- dian Kidney Remedy. St. Boniface, Man., May 6. (Special).—After suffering for three years from a complication of dis- eases, Madame Oct. Dufault, of 84 Victoria -street, this city, is once more in perfect health and Dodd's Kidney Pills are credited with an- other splendid cure. Speaking of her cure, Madame. Dufault says : "Yes I am again a well woman, and I thank Dodd's Kidney Pills for it. I suffered for three years and I may say I had pains all over my body. I had sciatica, neural- gia and diabetes. My back ached, and I had pains in my head. I was nervous and tired all the time; there were dark circles around my eyes which were also puffed and swollen, and heart fluttering added to my troubles. "But when I started to use Dodd's Kidney Pills I soon began to get better. I took thirteen boxes in all, and I think they are a grand medicine." Every one of Madame Dufault's ailments is a direct result of dis- eased kidneys. That's why Dodd's Kidney Pills so quickly cured them all.

A Thorough Pill.—To clear the stomach and bowels of impurities and irritants is necessary when their action is irregular. The pills that will do this work thoroughly are Parmelee's Vegetable Pills, which are mild in action but mighty in re- sults. They purge painlessly. and effectively, and work a permanent cure. They can be used without fear by the most delicately consti- tuted, as there are no painful ef- fects preceding their gentle opera- tion. More young men might manage to earn a living if their fathers de- clined to do it for them. Somebody has discovered that the hobble skirt does not prevent a wo- man from jumping to conclusions. It Will Cure a Cold.—Colds are the commonest ailments of man- kind and if neglected may lead to serious conditions. Dr. Thomas' Eclectric Oil will relieve the bron- chial passages of inflammation speedily and thoroughly and will strengthen them against subsequent attack. And as it eases the inflam- mation it will stop the cough be- cause it allays all irritation in the throat. Try it and prove it.

BADLY ULCERA'T'ED LEG. TWO.LFFECTIVE COAT SETTS. Last season's suit may be given an up-to-date appearance by the addition of a set of new collars and cuffs, as shown in the illustration, The upper set is of black and white striped taffeta, with over -set of Irish lace. Below this is a wide collar of white flannel, trimmed with tiny buttons to match the suit. Tommy, aged ten, had a sister named May, of whom he was very fond. May had also a lover who was very fond of her. One night when their grandfather called he asked Tommy—"What do you call May's young man?" "I call him `April showers,' " said Tommy. "Why," asked the old man, "what on earth makes you call; him such a silly name as that?" •"Well, you see," said Tommy, "he brings 'May flowers.' Some persons have periodical at- tacks of Canadian cholera, dysen- tery or diarrhoea, and have to use great precaution to avoid the dis- ease. Change of water, cooking, and green fruit, is sure to bring on the attacks. To such. persons we would recommend Dr. J. D. Kel- logg's Dysentery Cordial as being the best medicine in the market for all summer complaints. ..If 'a, few' drops are taken in water when the symptoms are noticed no further trouble will be experienced.

In sinking a. shaft at a colliery near Doncaster, England, water was 'encountered. It was pumped out at the rate of 7,000 gallons. a minute,, but the supply seemed in- exhaustible, and the engineers weer)about to give up. But some Ger- man engineers came to the rescue. They bored holes around the shaft to a depth of 400 feet, lined these with steel tubes, and pumped down a freezing mixture, which soon turned the ground and the water into a great block of ice. Through this the boring was continued as. through rock; then the shaft was lined with iron plates. This done, warm water was pumped down the tubes to thaw out the ground gra- dually. The .frost, wall was'. so strong that it has required three months to thaw. "Eh, dotter," said a gillie of a small Scotch town to a friend, "he mann hae been' an extraordinary man, that Shakespeare. There are things hae come into hishead that never would have Dome into mine at all." 7,ani-fink Cared Her when so Bad She Had to Use Crutches. For varicose sores, bad leg, or chronic ulcers, Zam-Buk is without equal as a healer. A proof of this is just to hand from Montreal. Mrs. T. Edwards, of 164 Amherst St., ,rites ; "Some time ago a bad sore broke out on my left leg near the ankle. For a week or two I did not heed it, but it got so bad that I "could hardly walk. I sent for our doctor, and he told me that I would have to lay up with the wound. I did so for three weeks. At the end of that time the ulcer healed a lit- tle, but I could only move about by using crutches. "The sore then broke out badly, and the doctor told me that the only thing that would cure it would be an operation, and that I should have to lay up for a year. "Mv son had cured a bad cut on his finger by using Zam-Buk, erect he advised me to give this balm a trial. I did so, and in less than a week's time it stopped the pain, which had been so bad that many nights I did not get a wink of sleep. In a very short time the wound was so much better that I was able to move about and do my work. I persevered with Zam-Buk, with the result that the wound is now per- fectly cured, and the limb is as sound and strong as ever." Zam-Buk is just as good for piles, abscesses, boils, scalp sores, blood poison, festering wounds, cuts, burns, scalds, eczema, eruptions, and aul skin injuries and diseases. 1I druggists and stores 50c. box, or ieali`Bek flet,,._ -Toronto; far price.

A German statistician declares that the war indemnity of $1,000,- 000,000, paid by France to Germany in 1871, has been almost completely repaid, as German losses at French gambling resorts have amounted to $1'4500,000, a year. PURIFIED HIS U Ors Morse's Indian Root Pills 'Healed Mr, Wilson's Sores Wizen the sewers of the body --bowels, kidneys and shirt ducts—get clogged up, the 'flood quickly becomes impure and frequently sores break out over the body. 'The Way to heal them, as Mr. Richard Wilson, who lives near London, Ont., found,, is to purify the blood. I3e writes: "For some time I had been in a low, depressed condition. My appetite left me and I soon began to suffer from indi- gestion. Quite a number of small sores and blotches formed all over my skin. ' tried medicine for the blood and used many kinds of ointments, but without satisfactory results. What was wanted was a thorough cleansing of the blood, and I looked about in vain for some medi- cine that would accomplish this. At last ]Cir. Morse's Indian Root Pills were brought to my notice, and they are ene of the most wonderful medicines I have ever known. My blood was puri- fied ht't very short bane, sores healed up, mlyindigestion vanished. They always have a place in My home and are looked upon as the family remedy." 1)1. ,Morse's Indian Root Pills cleanse the sysletu thoroughly.
