Waiters, store clerks, bookkeep- ers, who stand at their desks, bar- bers and the hundreds of others who are on their feet A, great deal suffer terribly from flat feet. In- deed, it is doubtful if there are many people who are compelled to be on their feet a great part of the day who do not suffer in this way, although many times they them- selves will speak of it as tiredness or being "foot -weary." But care- ful study is beginning to show that the principal faults is not due to the hardness of pavements, to ill - shaped shoes or faulty position of the feet in walking, but. rather that it is due to conditions in the bones themselves. As the body grows older it be- comes heavier, giving the arch of the foot a greater amount of weight tosupport, and thus placing it un- der a constant strain., In order to be able to support this strain the bones of the arch of the foot not only need to become heavier, but also to knit together more closely. This enables .astrong weight -carry- ing capacity, although it is at the loss of the springiness of the step which is characteristic of youth. Lime lfaterial. The bone material of the body is largely lime, though other mineral salts are necessary. It follows, therefore, that if the bones of the arch of the foot are to be built up; there must be consumed in the food a large amount of lime and mineral salts. But, instead of this, our modern food is ,largely denuded of these mineral salts; bread ins made from bran -lees flour, cereals are prepared in such a way that much of their nutritive value is lost. The children often are fed condensed milk, which contains less of the bone -forming properties. The vege- tables eaten in the large cities are usually raised on alluvial soil which is largely exhausted' of mineral • •alts and instead of being eaten raw they are` eaokedi--generally overcool ed -in water which takes tip what little mineral matter they may contain. • Rite Water I+iutritieus. When the native Indian troops on a hard campaign said they could march better on the water in which the rice had been boiled than the English soldiers could on the rice itself, they pointed to the impor- tant truth of the value of the min- erals in the water as well as to other nutritive qualities. Under these conditions it is easy to see that those who are on their feet a great deal and desire to es- cape flat foot should be careful of three things—eating slowly, that the digestion may have a chance to absorb the minerals in the food eaten; drinking a glass of lime wa- ter once or twice a week; and wear- ing strong -soled shoes from a last that fits the arch of the foot. BURIED TREASURE FOUND. Five Jars of Gold Dug Up In Sur- rey Is 'Reported. A story of buried treasure on a large scale comes from Haslemere, England. A Su 'bite n resident, writing in a Surrey newspaper, is responsible far the details. - "Certain information," he writes, "regarding some private property In the vicinity of Haslemere has re- cently carie • into my possession which I think should be made pub- lic, • "Some years ago my informant, while working on some land, un- earthed a large earthenware jar, se- curely sealed. On account of the great weight and curious design he at once took it to his employer, the owner of the property. Together they opened it, and found it to be full of gold coins. "The owner, realizing that the great value of this find to him de- Iended on secrecy, promised my friend a third of this and .any other treasure they might find, "A fence was put up, and excava- tions have been quietly carried on during the. night until recently, re- sulting in the discovery of five more jars of gold and two containing an- cient jewellery of immense value. In one of the jars adocument wee found written in Latin giving an account of the treasure, and stat- ing that fifty jars altogether of jew- els and gold. were hidden, being buried in the form of a circle."

South Ham, Wolfe Co., Que., April 7 (Special), ---There is fresh proof every day that as a family medicine Dodd's Kidney Pills are growing in favor with the people of Quebec, Just to quote an example, Amable Pinard of this place says, in an interview : "Dodd's Kidney Pills helped my rheumatism, backache, gravel, and heart disease, from which I suffered for twenty years. "They have not yet cured me 'completely, but they did completely cure my nephew, who suffered from kidney disease." Dodd's Kidney Pills always cure kidney disease. They will com- plete Amable Pinard's cure, because all the diseases mentioned are the results of kidney .dn y disease. They cured the young man's kidney dis- ease quickly, because it was taken in its early stages. Amable Pin- ard's troubles are of twenty years' standing, and take a longer treat- ment. The moral is, that if you cure your kidney disease early 'with Dodd's Kidney Pills, you will never be troubled with rheumatism, grav- el, and other diseases that ale caused by sick. kidneys failing to de their work.

A wife who obtained a, judicial separation from her husband told a• curious story at the South- western (London, England,) pollee court. She was Annie Traves, of 15 Farlow Road, Putney, and she stated that her •husband, a master carpenter, would only allow her twopence a day to get dinner, though he had about 4180 at the bank. "What does he do with his money?" inquired the Magistrate. "He spends it in clothes, pipes and other things," was the reply. "Ie has 100 pipes, between fifty and sixty walking stious and innumer- able pairs of boots." The man who stands on his dig- nity never gets so tired as he makes other people.

They take titles seriously in G many, Almost any one may ha one, but it Must be the one that wetly describes him, no matter h long and cumbrous. Indeed, longer the better, the Germs seem to think. The New York S quotes an address that it declar is probably written 'thousands times a week in Germany, for it a courtesy due to a sort of offici whose rank is far below that of minister of state: "Highly reverenced Mr. Real Privy Councilor, highly to be rever- enced Mr. President." The title councilor has four de- grees, ;thus : Positive, councilor; comparative, higher councilor; su- perlative, privy ',ouneilor, and ex- tra superlative, real privy council- or. Then to complicate matters, there are a hundred or more coun- cilors, such as councilors of lega- tion, councilors of state, sanitary councilors, forest councilors, and town police councilors. Titles of another class have to do with the wearer's occupation. Thus a Munich 'newspaper records the death of Frau So-and-so, wife of the "Royal Court Theatre Color -grind- ers' Assistant," Bavarian news- papers used to print notices, insert- ed by the persons themselves, of the betrothal of So-and-so, "Royal Su- pernumerary Hay -Binder's daugh- ter," or of So-and-so, "Head Bill - Poser's daughter." Much can be said in favor of the rigid German system of titles. For instance, in Germany, when a man takes the prefix "doctor" he has a right to do so. The title cannot be bought, begged or assumed. You may be sure that a "doctor" has won his title in a university of standing and renown. So, too, professors are such by right; they are quasi -officials of the state or the city. The title cannot be assumed offhand by bootblack~ or chiropodists. er- ve eX- ow the as un es. of is al a HE SENT HIS "BEST" REMEDY The young daughter of Mrs. T. S. Dougall, 523 Flora Avenue, Winni- peg, was arranging some of her doll's washing. on a clothes rack, tbeside the stove, when she fell, and her hand came in contact with the hot stove. She'sustained a serious burn, and her screams brought her mother quickly to the spot: "I sent to the druggist for the best. remedy he had for burns," she says, "and he sent back a box of Zam-Buk. He said that there was nothing to equal it. I applied this, and it soothed the pain so quickly that the child laughed through her • tears. I bound. up the hand in 'Lam-Buk, and each day applied , Zam-Buk frequently and liberally, until the burn was quite cured.

A worm has been found in East a Afric, which produces in the wild state quantities of silk, and fac- tories are being put up to utilize this silk. The worm in question is the larva of the anaphe moth. From a dozen to a hundred of them. ni,ake a nest in common and thus the co- coons are produced on a wholesale scale, says the "Pathfinder." When the butterfly is hatched it secretes a liquid which unseals the cocoon and it then escapes without injuring the silk, Thus the amount of human labor involved is much less than with the Asiatic silkworm.
