j)anger Signals That Everyone
Should Take Seriously..
Pain is' one of Nature's warnings
that something is wrong with the body.
Indigestion, for instance, 1s character-
ized by pains in Ate stomach, and of-
ten about the heart; rheumatism by
eliarp pains in the limbs and joints;
headaches are a. sign that the nerves
or stomach are out of order, in some
ailments, such as anaemia, pain isnot
so prominent. ,In ;this ease Nature's
warning takes the form of 'pallor,
breathlessness after slight exertion.
palpitation of the heart, and loss of ap-
petite. Whatever Pore these warnings
take, wise people will not 'ignore the
fact that many diseases have. their
origin in poor blood, and that when the
blood is enriched ' the trouble disap-
pears. Dr. Williams' Pink Pi11s are
most helpful in such cases because
they purify and build up :the blood to
its :formal. strength. In .thi•5 way it
tones up the nerves, restores the ap
petite and givesperfect health. - Miss

The web of the spider, is a compen-

In many species of insects tho eye
is fixed and cannot be turned in its
socket. To supply this great refect,
the eye of such insects is a multipiyin.g
glass with,a, lens looking in every di-
rection and showing every object that
may be near. Thus at first what seems
a privation, is in reality an advantage,
as an eye so constructed seems better
adapted to the wants of these crea-
tures than any other type.
The neck of the chameleon is stiff
and cannot be turned. However, Na-
ture is never at a loss. The chame-
leon's eye -ball stands out so far that
more than half of it projects from the
head anis the muscles function so very
curiously that the pupli can be turned
in any direction. He can look back-
wards without turning his body.
The parrot would have an incon-
venience in the very hooked shape of
its upper mandible, if the mandible
were stationary like that " of other
birds. But it is not, and the hook can
be used in suspending itself and it can
be used in a variety of mays since it is
capable of b'e'ing moved at pleasure.
Many quadrupeds have long ears

detect the species of sounds.The ears

The. elephant's short neck is com-
