In these days of skilful dentistry there are few people who are foolish enough to continue suffering pain ' from decaying teeth. We have learns ed that we can save money, time and. health if we have the cavities filled. When a tooth has so far broken down that the inner pulp is exposed, there is no question about having it attend- ed to, for the pain is so intense that the bravest cannot long endure it; and if the tooth fa too far gone to be filled, it must come out. But we may be greatly in need of dental treatment and yet not be con- scious t.E t there is anything wrong with our teeth, Sometimes severe earache or neuralgia and congestion of the eyes are the result of trouble that it Doing on at the root of a tooth, the nerves from which branch up to- ward the ear or the eye. For the same reason it is possible to lay the blame on a tooth that may be perfeet- healthy, but is suffering because it has the same nerve supply as its neighbor, which is really causing all the trouble. Whenever there is pain in an appar- ently healthy ear, or neuralgia and swelling around the eyes that cannot otherwise be accounted for or that does not yield to treatment, ib is wise to ask the dentist to find out whether •a tooth is creating the disturbance. An alveolar abscess is an. 'abscess that forms in the jaw in consequence of a diseased tooth. Wlien it forms only in the gam it is called a gumboil, and there it generally conies to a head, breaks end heals, after the manner of boils. But if it occurs farther down, at the root of the booth, it can cause serious trouble. Unable to discharge outwardly, it may burrow down into the bone and find an opening through the cheek, or it may work its way up- ward to the ear or even to the brain. When the pain in the jaw is clearly owing to an abscess that is forming, you can hurry it along by hot applica- tions and poultices inside the mouth; but do not apply them outside, for that may cause the abscess to break through the cheek, which would leave an ugly scar. As soon as the abscess is ripe it should be opened by a physician. But whatever the temporary treatment of the abscess may be, that is certainly true: a tooth that is afflicted with a succession of abscess ought to come out. Teeth with septic roots cause much more trouble than we realize. Neuralgias and headaches that no drugs will cure, and stomach troubles that defy all medicines, will often yield as by magic to a little treatment by a good dentist.—Youth's Compan- ion., Health Hints. Hope and success make a finer tonic than medicine. The best tonic is fresh air. The best restorative is sleep. The best stimulant is exercise. Fatigue calls for rest and not the spur. Don't neglect to take daily exer- cise in the open air; it's almost as im- portant as daily food. One of tlae best forms of exercise is walking. Every day when the weath- er permits walk be or from your work, and certainly during noon hour. A half hour's brisk walk in the fresh, clean, outdoor air every day will bring its own reward. If chilly or cold when walking, take deep breaths. Walk with the chest high and head up, and you cannot feel blue and despond- ent. Failure.

But, personally, none of the family are in the habit of advertising themselves. Lord Iveagh himself is. a very reticent man. He stands very high, it is known, in the personal con- fidence of the King. And not without reason. For his character is a re- markably fine one. He is a thorough pian of business, but his kind-hearted- ness and munificence are proverbial. xie is a man of wide culture, and is Chancellor of Dublin University.

In Ireland the Guinness family is I very popular, The Dublin business gives employment to vast numbers, and that the Guinness employes are treated well is a fact that is appre- ciated throughout the country. Lord Iveagh was made a Peer in 1891, his oldest brother, Lord Ardi- loun, having been raised to the Peer- age eight years previously. It was their father—and the grandfather of Capt.

This article is for the man or wo- man' who suffers from rheumatism who wants to be cured, not merely re- lieved—but actually cured. The most the rheumatic sufferer can hope for in rubbing something on the tender, ach- ing joint, is a little relief. No lotion or liniment ever did or can make a cure. The rheumatic poison is rooted in the blood. Therefore rheumatism can only be cured when this poisonous acid is driven out of the blood. Any doctor will tell you this is true. If you want something that will go right to the root of the trouble in the blood take Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. They make new, rich blood which drives out the poisonous acid and cures rheu- matism to stay cured. The truth of these statements has been proved in thousands of cases throughout Can- ada, and the, following' cure is a strik- ing instance. Mr. Henry Smith, St. Jerome, Que., says: "For upwards of a year I was a victim of rheumatism in a most painful form. The trouble was located in my legs and for a long time I was so bad that • I could not walk. The suffering which I endured can only be imagined by those who have been similarly afflicted.

Mayor Refuses to Let Him Christen Baby "Verdun Saldnica." • Children's names in France can only be chosen from the calendar (which contains all the saints) and from an- cient history, except by special per- mission to be obtained from the State ' Attorney. At Nice the Guardian of the ceme- ' tery wished to registrar his latest child, a son, as "Verdun Salonica," but the Mayor refused to accept such a name, as dieing contrary to the law. The father urged patriotic grourds and was able to plead he had fifteen children to name, ten being still alive, and so naives were somewhat exhaust- ed in the family.

Sad Case of Society Woman Who Married Second Time. Each month brings the ever-grow- ing .number of Enoch Ardens, whose unexpected returns are received some- times with joy, and many times, it is to be feared, with the reverse emo- tion, says a London despatch. Men, both officers and privates, who have been officially reported kdlled, are continually finding them- selves, either in some foreign hos- pital ora else in a German prison [camp. A case in point occurred only ! a few clays ago when Mrs. Barry Bingham, who was one of last year's brides, was suddenly told that her husband, whom she had thought killed in the Jutland naval battle, was actually alive and well in one of the German prisons. But this was one of the happy resurrections. I heard of a tragic one the other day. The huiband of a very popular and well-known woman was taken prisoner in the early days of the war: He was sorely rounded, and after a lapse of time was reported as hav- ing died in a German hospital. Every- thingpointed to the correctness of the statement, and the pretty young widow mourned his loss for close on a year, and then, after a brief court- ship, married a man who in the years before her first wedding had been her warm friend and admirer. Months elapsed, and suddenly one lay a letter came from the Prisoners of War Society advising the lady that a :,Didier who had apparently lost his minOyhad been returned from Ger- luny as totally -unfit.

As an oarsman his name is a household word, and he is, besides, a good shot and a skilled yachtsman. He is a member .of Parliament for South-east Essex, and was formerly member for the Haggerston division, one of the poorest parts of London. He has also served on the London County Council and on the London Education Committee. He served in South Africa during the war. Thus it will be seen that he is dowered with the gift of public service, as well as with many more of fortune's best gifts. As a politician he is a strong Unionist—an Irishman, if a Unionist, is usually a strong one—but his frank, cheery, ,breezy personality makes him popular with men of all parties. He is certainly an excellent candidate en a platform, his person- ality being worth a lot of votes to him.
