It Generally Leaves the Patient
Debilitated and an Easy Vic-
. tiro to Other Diseases.
One of the foremost medical writers
says: "It is astonishing the number of
people who have been crippled in
health for years after an attack of
la grippe or influenza." The real.dan-
ger from this disease, which sweeps
over Canada every winter, is during
convalescence, when the characteristic
symptoms, the fever, the catarrh, the
headaches and the depression of spi-
rits pass away. Grip leaves behind it
weakened vital powers, thin blood, im-
paired digestion and over -sensitive
nerves—a condition that makes the
system an easy prey to pneumonia,
bronchitis, rheumatism, nervous pros-
tration and even consumption. It is a
condition that calls most emphatically
for a tonic for the blood. Dr. Wil-
liams' Pink Pills are a tonic especially
adapted to meet this need as they
purify and enrich the blood. They dinner, a man of the utmost charity,
tone up the nerves and give vigor, good will, and common sense—again,

The way in which • Lord Derby
shakes hands with you is enough in
itself to telt you that he is a good
fellow. But in addition to this he has
the advantage of such a jolly, such a
good natured, such a frank and gen-
erous countenance, that your heart
goes out to him• at the first moment
of your meeting. He is one of those
men whom no one can be angry with;
in a word, a good sort, writes Harold
Begbie in the London Chronicle.
There is something of the school-
boy in his appearance—the fat school-
boy who likes cream tarts and takes
a little shoving to move. He has hair
that is unruly, a plump, pink face, the
nicest round blue eyes in the world,
and a mouth that might be petulant
or a trifle sulky but for the manifest
good temper of the rest .of him. He
is tall, broad shouldered, upright, and
middle-aged below the girth. When
he is speaking seriously his eyebrows
go up, his forehead becomes wrinkled,
leis moustache sticks out, and he looks
exactly like an overgrown schoolboy
who has either just been switched
rather severely or is going in to bat
on a bad wicket with no chance of
saving his side. But when he smiles—
when he sticks his thumbs into the
armholes of his waistcoat, crosses his
legs, tilts back his chair and ex-
presses some genial sentiment, then
he looks what he really is, the authen-
tic Englishman born under a lucky
star, one with whom. everything has
prospered, one who could settle any
difference in the world over a good
system. Mrs. Howard D. Chaffey,
Indian Island, N.B., says: "For sev-
eral winters in succession I was at-
tacked by la grippe, which left me

White will be quite as modish for
skirt, suit and frock this season as it
has been for the past summer or two.
Serge, gabardine and broadcloth are
smart for those who can afford mare
than one white frock or suit, but for
the practical woman cotton corduroy
in its various cords will be far more
practical; it may be easily and ef-
fectively tubbed when soiled. These
corduroys come in the pale pinks,
blues, yellows, and similar tones foe
separate skirts, suits and sport coats
or blouses.
Among the season's novelties is the
house coat; it closely resembles the
sport coat or blouse, and could in
fact be used for the same purposes,
but it has been designed for house
wear, to take the place, as it were, of
the kimono, with the woman who does
not care for, or who has not the time
to indulge. in, the luxury of so corn-
plete a negligee es a kimono, or sim-
ilar.loose-fitting house robe. These
are being developed in the colored
cotton corduroys, and in like with
finished cottons. They are with wide
collars, deep, roomy pockets,, and arc
loosely belted. Combined with skirte
of white linen, duck, khaki, or cotton
corduroy, they- are excellently suites'
to morning, wear and the house.

Dr. Burri, especially in yogboort.

Another inteeestin;; and important
assertion is to the effect that persons
who make cheese a considerable part
of their regular diet are very resist-
ant to many intestinal diseases, such
as dysentery and the dreaded typhus
fever, which has desolated Serbia. Ac-

Prisoner Whom Kitchener Freed Now
Working Against Allies.
The British press is stirred over the
report from German sources that Karl
Neufeld, the. German trader and tra-
veller, well known in the Near East,
has been trying to influence the Mo-
hammedan tribe: in Persia and Arabia
against the Allies. Neufeld was res-
cued from prison by Lord Kitchener
and the British troops at Omdurman
in September, 1898. For ten years he
had lain in a Mandist jail, subjected.
to horrible tortures, according to his
own account. In his book describing
his adventures, Neufeld tells how, en
being thrown into prison, three sats
of iron shackles were attached to his
fact and -rings and chains fastened
about his neck. Ile was often flogged,
and on one occasion he received 500
lashes. Froin these horrors he was
saved by the British, and returned to .
freedom.
