thing possibly could cure an aching
back faster than Nerviline," writes
Mrs. Arthur Kober, of Lower Chel-
sea, N.S. "1 caught cold and was' so
prostrated with pain 1 could not bend
over. We always have Nerviline at
home, and .T had the painful region
rubbed thoroughly with this grand
liniment, At once the pain departed.
The lameness was rapidly reduced and
in an hour 1 was able to be about my
housework. 1 was rubbed again just
before retiring, and awoke as usual in
the morning without a sign of niy
back trouble."
There is no sort of muscular pain
that Nerviline won't cure quickly.
Thousands swear by it for rheuma-
tism; neuralgia, sciatica and lumbago
It sinks to the core of the pain—right
through muscle, tissue and nerve—it
penetrates where no oily, greasy lini-
ment can go and invariably cures
quickly, If you have an ache or a
pain anywhere --use Nerviline-it will
cure you. Family size bottle, very

A
EYE PUPILS ARE LARGER.
Reason Why Some Animals Can
See in the Dark.
It is .commonly supposed that
cats and some other animals are
gifted . in a way: -that• enables them
to see in perfectly dark places
where it is impossible for the hu-
man eye to discern anything. This
is only partly true, hbwev er. In a
really dark room a cat can see no
more than a human being. In
semi -darkness, though, e cat can
see more, because of a distinctive
partment.

and can expand so as to take in
more light than the human eye. In
places that may seem quite dark
to human beings there may be
more light than ,can be taken in by
the eyes of the !animals, and this
accounts for the superior gift with
which they are credited. Ii an

CHILDREN. SHOWED IT
Effect of Their Warm Drink in the
Morning.
"A year ago I was a. wreck from
coffee drinking and was on the
point of 'giving up any position in
the school room because of ner-
vousness.
(Tea is just as injurious as coffee
because it, too, contains bhe health -
destroying drug, caffeine).
"I was telling a friend about it
and she said, 'We drink nothing at
'meal, time but Postum, and it is
suds a comfort to have something
we can enjoin drinking with the
children.'
"1 was astonished that she would
allow 'the children to drink any
kind of coffee, but she said Postum
was not coffee, but in most health-
ful drink for children as well as for
older ones, and that the condition
of both the children and adults
showed that to be a, fact.
"I was in despair' and determined
to give Postai-a a trial, following
the directions carefully. It was a
decided success and I was com-
pletely won by its rich delicious
flavour.
"In a short time I noticed a de-
cided improvement in any condition
aid kept growing bettor month
after month, until now I ;am
healthy, ,and do my work ie. the

ure. I would nos.return to nerve-

There is clearly a spirit of op•ti.-

order of things that the"r"e should
be a good deal less: of construction

been in other years, It is possi-
ble that recently this -class of work
has gone on too rapidly, ,and that
as a consequence an overplus �If
labor has boonattracted, to these
shores, or that too many of our
own people have taken to this or-

cause, the fact remains that despite
all the improving prospects and

be many men, .ayes and many; wee

get nothing to do. These form a
large, deserving class, Who must be
cared for. How is the •problem, to

should be appointed to talk active

can be,, done .by organization and
by exercising 'judgment, persevere
ance and patience. Many a brick-

many an immigrant, possesses
some knowledge of ,annuals. In
short, the main quality desired on
the side of both employer and em-
ployed is largely willingness:
TEETHINGT11ME 'TROUBLES
•
Baby's teething time is a period
of anxiety for mothers unless
baby's ,stomach is kept sweet and
his bowels regular. No other
medicine has been , found so valu-
able during teething time as has
Baby's Own Tablets. They make
teething painless and by their use
baby gets his teeth so easily that
the mother scarcely knows they are
coming. Concerning the Tablets,
14Irs. F. Goldsmith, Nelson, B.G.;
writes : "Baby's Own Tablets are
a mother's greatest help during the
teething period." The Tablets are
sold by anedicine dealers or by mail
at 25 cents a box from The Dr.

City of Victoria Healthy.
Fortunate indeed is the Can-
adian city with such Ka'record of
good health as that of Victoria,
13.C,, es is shown by the report of
Mr. G. A. B. Hall in tee medical
officer's report for 1914,
The mortality rate is only 7.23
per thousand, while the infant
mortality rate reached the almost
incredible figure of .6 per thousand.
Of 18 oases of typhoid, only five
were local, the remainder coming
from logging camps.
One of the reasons for this situa-
tion is undoubtedly the caro taken
to ensure a pure milk supply. The
examinations taken during the year
showed the butter fat percentage to
average 3.9 per cont., the water
supply is also above reproach.
The population of Victoria is now
55,000, and of the 367 death record-
ed last year 90 were over 70 years
of age.
Victoria, B.C., is evidently a
place where there is some competi-
tion for the position of "oldest in-
habitant."

Halifax, N.S., Dec. 15—hien inter-
viewed at her home at 194 Argyle St.,
Mrs. Baverstock was quite willing to
talk of her peculiarly unfortunate case.
"I was always `blue' and depressed,
felt weak, languid and utterly unfit
for any work. My stomach was so
disordered that I had no appetite.
What I did eat disagreed. I suffered
greatly from dizziness and sick head-
ache and feared a nervous breakdown.
Upon my druggist's recommendation I
used Dr. Hamilton's Piles.
"I felt better at once. Every day 1
improved. In six weeks I was a well
woman, cured completely after differ-
ent physicians had failed to help me.
It is for thla reason that I strongly
urge sufferers with. stomach or diges-
tive troubles to use Pr. Hamilton's

Dr. Hamilton's Pills strengthen the
stomach, improve digestion, .strength-
en the nerves and restore debilitated
systems to health. By cleansing the
blood of long-standing impurities, by
bringing the system to a high point
of vigor, they effectually chase away
weariness, ' depression and disease.
