Vegetables are also cul- tivated by railway men in patches dug out beside the line, and . here potatoes and cabbages appear to" flourish. In England the municipal author- tties through the rural district councils and parish councils, have ower to acquire land for ust,s illetmenta gardens, which are let ,¢ut to working men for a very mod - rate rent. This is a great conven- se ce to the people as it enables them to grow vegetables on a larger cafe than is possible in the village kal.dens. In practically every dis- trict prizes are offered by private 1'-d'viduals and societies for the best cultivated allotments and also for gardens. • City Window Bowers. Turning from the country dis- tricts to the towns, we still find the Englishman's love of a garden one 'f his predominant characteristics. In theminn•er circle of the towns where space does not permit of a a`'den, the working man and his hildren are nothing daunted, but tart immediat'Iv to make one round their windows. Various societies give prizes for -bedew gardens, and much is done y all soe'-al. workers and club lead - es to encourage children and rown-up people in the • love and -are care of plants. It would be a surprise to ninny ho look upon London as a city of )ricks and mortar, to realize for an nstent the thousands upon thou - ends of' really beautifully cultivat- and gaily -colored gardens con - ahead within its area, the pr:de nd joy of their citizen owners.

Tells now to Curs Quioltly. "Even when I was young I was not robust and healthy like attics girls. I suffered from headaches, and had sort of blue feelings that deprived me of toe joyful Writs and pleasures other girls seemed to get. After I married I found I could not throw worries off like other women, and those full feel- ings of despondency and weariness made me very unhappy, There was no cause to feel so, and my doctor said my liver was sluggish, and this accounted for my poor color, my tiredness, langour and despair. The pills the doctor gave me were too purgative, made me weaker be- cause they were too active for my constitution. Dozens of my friends recommended Dr. Hamilton's Pills, and they were so mild and helpful.. Well, I never used a pill that act- ed so quietly as Dr. Hamilton's. They were so comfortable to use, I was afraid they might not help. But in a week I knew they had been actively engaged in cleaning up my system. They did the work of a tonic and blood medicine combined. I improved to a marvelous degree with Dr. Hamilton's Pills, and I now maintain the'most perfect kind of health by using them just once or twice a week." It is Mrs. E. V. Erlanger, well known at Gloucester, who relates the above experience. She proved what you and all others, men and women, can prove—that Dr. Ham- ilton's Pills are best for restoring health and best for keeping the system in perfect running order.

Human lite should ,be prolonged, and it can be by higher education on matters of hygiene. The aver- age expectation of life in the United States is only about forty- four years, says the Boston Globe. It should be much higher, and prob- ably will be hereafter, for people are learning more and more con- cerning the prevention of disease. As a matter of fact the most valu- able study in our schools is hygiene. If the young folks are taught the value of food and moderate exer- cise they will grow up strong and possess a knowledge of how to take care of their bod.es. There is too much ignorance among young and o d concerning the proper care of the health. How few there are who know even how to eat—that is, to conetime, only those things which will agree with and upbuild the sys- tem and create a sufficient supply or vitality with which to ward off disease. A child with a large head and an emaciated body should be kept from dfficult mental tasks and be put through a course of hygienic in- struction and training that would co -serve his energies The sooner more attention is paid in all our i'i.st:tutions,of learning to hygiene and kindred topics the bet- ter it will be for the students. None but the strong and healthy can en- joy life or engage successfully in its battles. A. Mean Woman.

For real practical reliability. and something to swear by, experience —plain old experience—is able to carry a big load yet without getting swaybacked. A Western woman found some things about food from Old Experi- ence a good, reliable teacher. She writes: "I think I have used almost every 'breakfast food manufactured, but none equal Grape -Nuts in my esti- mation. "I was greatly bothered with weak stomach and indigestion, with formation of gas after eating and tried many remedies for it, but i did .not find relief. "Then 1 decided I must diet and see if I could overcome the diffi- culty that way. L':y choice of food was Grape -Nuts because the doctor told me I could not digest starchy food. "Grape -Nuts food has been a great benefit to me for I feel like a dif- ferent person since I begun to eat it. It is wonderful to me how strong my nerves have become. I advise everyone to try it, for ex- perience is the best teacher. "If you have any stomach trou- ble—can't digest your food, use Grape -Nuts food for breakfast at least, and you won't be able to praise it enough when you see how different you feel."

Larkins, the London (England) steeplejack who climbed the Nelson Column and restored the statue in 1005, the centenary of Trafalgar, has been engaged to re- pair the monument of the first Duke of Sutherland, near Dunrobin Cas- tle. The journey from London is 652 miles, and the monument stands on the summit of Ben Vraggic, 1,300 feet high. The statue itself stands on a solid stone pedestal 90 feet high, and measures 33 feet in height, nearly twice the size of the statue of Nelson in Trafalgar Square. It takes two hours to climb the mountain, and work has to cease in time for the descent be- co)'e dark, the top of the mountain be'ng covered with snow nearly all the winter. Lifelike.
