It is but a short time, counted by
days, since Dr. Pitcher's Backache
Kidneys Tablets first came to SeafOrtli.
It was said they were something en-
tirely out of the common as a speeific
for Backache and Kidney complaints,
ani that they acted very quickly arid.
made startling cures of -cases that all
other medicines failed to influence.
Seaforth people are quickly corking
to -the front to substantiate this s ate -

ney, Goderich streetWeet, Seaforth who
relates her experience as follows :
"My little girl, aged 11 years, has
front childhood been delicate. The
back and kidneys have given lots of
pain and troub!e, particularly in the bed
wetting, so common in children. Noth-
ing seemed to release her in any he ay
until I got a bottle of Dr. Pitcher's
Backache Kidney Tablets from Robert's
drug store. The tablets began to take
effect immediately, and by the time the

UtIES OF OLD PAPER.
What Was once a.Loss Now the Basil/
of a Big ,Business. 1
A curious and interesting feature of the
paper making industry was brought to
the notice of an oftiee manager a few
days ago by a latter of inquiry. The in-
quiry was .about accumulations of writ-
ten matter no l-fonger ot Use, but ofsuch
a private business nature as to necessi-
tate ctireful disposal in order to prevent
examination by. outside parties --old ac-,
oourtt books, for instance.
Years ago large Offices used at aonae ex-
pense to have such accumulations de-
stroyed, usually by fire. But this waft
ttoublesonie, for paper in compact form
is ,.slow to burn, and the destroying of
'books and stacks of paper tended to clog
furnaces. , .
In course of time a paper manufactuter
hit on the idea of taking such old papers
to mill under assurances of privacy and
chemically removing all traces of writing...
Market,price being alloWed for the paper
thus gathered, what wa before merely a
waste and a source et t 611We-besides be-
came productive or a r venue- worthy of
considerationaand the 0 an grew in favor.
A.t first houses would send employees
with the stuff to the mi Is to be sure that
no scattering octiurred, ut gradually this
precaution camel -to be iscontinued. .
A large- pap& conce la, with mills in
Connectieut, has for y ars made a spe-
deity of - collecting s ch papers from
bankers, insuranee companies and large
mercantile houses and Shipping them di-
rectly to -the mills, where by the us* of
strong chemicals all traces of writing are
destroyed before the nas.terial is worked
over into paper pulp. This feature of the
economicsef a great city's affairs has
grown togreat proportions, and some-
timsi
es ngle loads contain as much as 20
or 30 teas of paper, all marked with writ-
ing..,;- ,
' Incidentally the spread et contagion by
this method is effectuallyprevented. When
the writing hail disappeared front the
sheets, bo kave all vestiges of:life.
The refuse collected aids In making dif-
ferent varieties et paper, and the careful
sorting . process Ikat must be ernployed
constitutes (me "of the chief Italie of ex-
pense la using Skis material. The stuff
which C0111•11 fr011i correspondence eflices
goes in part to make writing paper.' The

other purposes. AU paper scrap is mixed

HEALTH FROM COLD AIR.
Winter About the Best Stimulant
People Can Have.
Many persons regard the winter season
as an unfortunate visitation. It is con-
sidered both uncomfortable to the body
and harmful to health. This is au error.
Cold is a most potent agent for the res-
toration and preservation of normal ac-
aivity on the part of the organs of the.
human body. It is a wise plan of provi-
dence which gives us a change of sea -f
sons. The winter cold comes as a tonic,
to repair the injuries done by the en-
ervating beat of summer. Summer, it is
true, has many wise uses in the matter of
health. It induces outdoor life, rids the
system of poisons through copious per-
spiration And through the scorching rays
of sun destroys germ life.
Winter is the great bracer of the sys-
tem. It stimulatee activity in every or-
gan. When cold attacks the surface of
the body, the blood is set into more free
circulationas a means of bodily warmth.
It is- through the circulation of the blood
that the human anatomy is kept in a
state of repair.. When the food has been
digested and converted into liquid form,
it is taken up by the bhiod and carried
the rounds of the system for the purpose
of repairing the waste places.. When tke
cold causes increased circulations it also
brings about moreperfeet nutrition.
Man's face and hands illustrate hew
weatherproof the body becomes when ex-
posed to air. Continued activity in circu-
lation on the surface, caused by the air
corning in contact with the skin, tends
to nourish and thicken the skin. Thus
man's skin grows thicker in winter just
as animals .are supplied with a double
coat of fur. The savages who dwell bare-
headed in the open air are -seldom, if
ever, known to be afflicted with bald
heads, while, with the civilian who shields
his scalp from air, baldness is prevalent.
The Indians who, if not now, in form-
er days roamed our western borders,
practically without clothing to shelter
their bodies, became, through long expo-
sure, so inured to the cold' that it gave
them but little discomfort,—St. Louis
Globe -Democrat.
Peculiar Kind of Writers' Cramp.
"What's the matter, Brown?' You're
getting thin," said a successful wrfter of
special stories for the Sunday newspapers
to another "free lance," whose work. is
seldom accepted. "You look as if you
had been working too hard." This was a
lie, and the euccessful man knew it, but
he could afford to flatter.
"Haven't written anything for a month,"
growled Brown. "I've got writers'
cramp."
"Why don't you use a typewriter, then?
I never heard that writers' cramp would
meke a man thin, anyway," exclaimed
the prosperous man.
"The kind that I have does," replied
Brown glootnily. "It's a poor writer's
cramp in the stomach. The less you write
the more it • crampe you/"—New York
Tribune.
Identifying a Rar "Possoil." •
The late Professor' M rsh of Yale col-
lege, the eminent paleo tologist, had a
quiet wit. Once a facetious student
brought him a bone scraped and cut in a
fantastic fashion. The class knew of the
plan to deceive the scientist.
"I think, professor, that this is a very
rare fossil."
The doctor looked at the bone, then at
the student, finally centering his gaze up-
on the latter's knee.
"It is not rare. It is painfully familiar
to me. It is a piece of the leg bone of a
calf !"-Setturday EVening Post.
Didn't D she Him.
"He says he woul4 gladly lay the world
at my feet," said t e :sentimental young
woman.
"That's what belt do," said lilies Cay-
enne. "After you're married he'll'lay tlatt
world at your feet and compel you to
walk on it beCausio you can't afford a

' "One of the nu st scientific pieces of rail-
road running 1 eVer saw," said John Rut-
gers, a former employee of a. railroad.
company, who has now given up railroad-
ing and is engaged in business at Mil-
waukee, "used to be done on it road run-
ning an hour and a half train from Phil-
adelphia' to New York city, and as the
present speed of locomotives had not
thea been attained it was somewhat diffi-
cult getting. engineers to make it. The
tert4fic speed naaintained, together with
the constant strain of anxiety through-
out the run', told heavily on the men's
neraes, and aftei taking the train through
a few times thea had to give it up.
"But to return to the scientific .work 1
started to tell you of. To make such a
schedule every minute that conld be sav-
ed was counted. Princeton grade was
one drawback to the run. ._ It was long
and heavy and an. inevitable delay al-
ways ensued there. Tq stop uid scouple
on another engine would not help mat-
ters, as the time necessary ter the stop
more than equaled the extra time re-
_ quired to climb the igrade. Finally they
tried coupling on th o extra engine when
running at full speed, -and the plan work-
ed to perfection as long as the train was
kept up. It was one of the most beauti-
ful, pieces oa, wcrk I ever saw. The ex-
tra 'engine would be running quietly
along several tapes from the vade, and
when the expres aamein sight the speed
of the extra would be at once increased
until it was gre ter than that of tho on-
coming train.
"Then little b little the engineer Would
decrease the sped ,and drop back until
engine and tra u would come together
as gently as a 1 tither floats to earth. A
man stationed n the cowcatcher would
couple the tw engines together, and
their united sttength would whisk the
train Sip the gra e with scarce any abate-
ment of speed. The grade surmounted,
the forward en ine would then be un-
coupled and w.uld rem forward at top
speed until it 41:me te a switch which
was epen and -offing, for it. Into this
it would run, th switch would be closed
and a moment later the feet express
, would thunder iy on its way -to its des-
tination. It w: s apretty end scientific
sight, and, if yiu realized the attendant
danger, a thrillit g one as well to watch,"

A Story of Dr. Mitchell.
The following anecdote is told of Dr.
Weir Mitchell: While on one of his for-
eign trips he decided to consult a very
eminent German specialist regarding a
nervous disease of his own of long stand-
ing. The two men, had never met be-
fore, so he se4t up his card as "Mr.
Mitchell of Ph adelphia" and was re-
ceived by the 4erman under this title.
The physician xamined him very care-
fully and then said: "My dear sir, do you
say you come from Philadelphia?"
The doctor yetis fdrced to admit the in-
iquity.
"Well," said the physician, "have you
consulted Dr. S. Weir Mitchell of that
' city?"
The doctor sai thit be had.
"And he coul n't llteIp you?"
"No," was th an wer.
"Then," said the loctor, removing his
spectacles with an iir of finality, "I'm
afraid I can't so anything for you."—

She was a pr tty girl, pretty enough to
attract the atte tion of two young men
who were walki g up West End avenue.
And she was et postulating with a small
fox terrier wh ch was tugging at his
strap.
"It's nice to ee a girl talking in that
confidential wa to a pet, don't you
think?" said on of the young men.
"Decidedly I do," was the rejoinder.
By this time the pretty girl was almost
abreast of the two, and her sweet and
earnest tones were distinctly audible.
"Now, Teddy" she was saying, "if
you don't behaae, break your head
for you."
The young men passed on In silence.—
